The phone I have might look retro but is high tech but is high tech in a different direction,it prioritises reliability,durability and an incredible battery life.I couldnt recommend it higher.Submerge it in mud and shower it down,head off on hols for 3 weeks and leave the charger at home.Best of all you will enjoy conversations with your mates/better half in the restaurant/pub as opposed to the head down finger swipe thing.Gerard":2etzmwgr said:66 triumph daytona":2etzmwgr said:Retro phones never went away,they improved.This is what I use,I got it last year.Its totally waterproof,shockproof and has a reasonable camera but what makes it stand out is the battery life.It claims a month between charges.I get on average 4 weeks between charges,no sh1t.I was sick of the fragility of smartphones and wanted to get away from the "head down finger swipe"thing.
I like that. Getting fed-up with my "smart phone" not!
Just want to be able to make calls. Camera is of not interest. Play music/radio yes. Email...useful but not the end of the world.
App...why bother.
