But i've decided that i don't really need or want a smartphone.  I want something that i can make and receive calls with (with very low frequency), and which i inspect to get the time if i'm not near my computer or a clock.  I especially do not want a large, fragile touch screen.


If it's phone calls ONLY, all's good. The first SMS you send, will remind you how hard it is.

Our StVincent de Paul group needed a phone - as cheap as possible. So we got a 12 button unit. (Android by the bye). It took about 2 minutes to realise our error. We had all forgotten how inconvenient it is to touch one key several times to get the letter you want. And in this case, numbers were another menu away. And it was about $10 cheaper than a low-end smart phone.

Just suggesting there are practicable matters  ....
