The mobile phone is clunky, has 'only' a 3.2 megapixel camera and can also be otherwise compared to today's smartphones precious little useless.
But:
It can make calls, send texts, I'm not constantly with any trifles on the cookie and it cost me much time as I do not have to wrangle with meaningless Apps and security matters and me I need not worry about data theft me to make.
I can listen to songs and take snapshots, for more a cell phone / Smartphone is simply not thought of. (For music I reach for iPod, for images to Nikon.) And I need not worry about me, a 400-unit high-end to make that already acts suspiciously vulnerable when evil-look.
And I just do not get broken: it has scratches, the sound quality is slowly but I do not get small. I must therefore not every six months to submit because something rumspinnt and tease me about it that I for 2 months due to 'supply constraints' do not get a replacement.
Conclusion: Buy recommendation for all take precedence over those time-consuming 400 smartphones and pals the rumhauen all day on their wonderful devices instead of communicating with other animal on the detonator.
