    ‘Dumbphones’ are getting smarter and more premium. Are they the solution for disillusioned phone addicts?

      You can pry my smartphone from my cold dead hands.

      These days we're expected to have not only a phone but a computer hooked up to the Internet.

      The smartphone does everything except print but you can use it to do that too

      I have a little trouble using the Moto 2024 screen because of the size, my near sightedness, and because my finger is often typing a wrong character that will turn any word into gibberish.

      I have no serious complaints about the phone but I want the largest screen I can get.

      I'd like to have a home computer but it will not be soon.

      I lost two phones in a row (Moto Edge 2024, Moto G 2025). I later found the Moto G 2025 (low end even if they get $300 for it) but I didn't remember the code and it's a brick. I want to find a way to factory reset it and sell it.

      I got this one brand new locked for $179. and pay $45 a month for unlimited everything with Straight Talk (Verizon).

      I remember when cell phones were just cellphones. The reception was excellent. You could replace the battery. They had antennae for safety. You could buy one for around $35 and they were built to last.

      Good times.
