Student masters 500 phones

A Chinese student says he has owned and mastered about 500 mobile phones over the past nine years, reports Ananova.

" Zhang Yi, 24, of Nanjing University in Nanjing city, says he loves learning new functions of the latest phones.

He has become a mobile phone consultant and problem-solver for his fellow students, according to Kuaibao Daily.

It’s rare for Zhang to use a phone for more than a month. After mastering all the functions, he will resell the phone to his schoolmates or in a second-hand market. “It takes less and less time for me to fully understand a new model, and I still haven’t found the phone which suits me best," he said."
