Over 12 months ago my old phone was useless and my MP3 player has entgütig given up the ghost, now I saw myself an opposite question: Smartphone, yes or no.
I decided against it because I wanted to phone and MP3 player in one and the function keys are convinced me at Sony Ericsson in the end. In addition, I have little to unnecessary functions such as telephony, SMS and Internet with the mobile phone.
What has now convinced me exactly?
I do not open, I have no key lock disable the MP3 player to use and I have normal function keys as well as in an ordinary MP3 player.
Perfect.
The phone itself, I use still almost never for telephony or SMS. Sometimes I use the Internet but for my needs enough performance here completely.
The battery lasts even after more than 12 months still good 5 days - even though I'm running every day at least 2 hours to MP3 players - as compared to the battery life of a smartphone that's absolutely great.
What I would like to emphasize strongly the quality.
The slide function works as before, it should be noted no wear.
The mobile phone also makes hell of a lot with - me is the mobile phone already fallen from more than 1 meter drop onto tiles and has only a small notch at the top - otherwise it's like new. No scratches, no wear - so I have to.
All in all I am very satisfied with my MP3 mobile.
I may be but now switch to a smartphone that Sony Ericsson will probably continue my MP3 player on the go be to conserve the battery of the smartphone)
