Nope... if you have a dummy line with a shared plan you just share the talk minutes with the other line... but just like any other phone it gets an upgrade every 24 months. When you're ready for a new phone you transfer the "extra" line upgrade to your primary line... it locks the extra line into another 2 years but in my case... with my plan I only pay $10 a month to share the voice minutes... plus with everything I do to every phone I have... there's no telling when I may need that other phone just to talk! Lol... btw its a non-smartphone... smart phones would require adding data to the spare line which really wouldn't be worth it! But if you stagger your upgrades you can get a new primary phone every 12 months...
