I wish I could get a tablet that is like the ReMarkable tablet with more storage (at least 64GB, storage is dirt cheap these days) or a MicroSD slot. I’m not paying $400 for a tablet with 8GB of storage in 2024. For comparison, you could buy 8TB of SSD storage for that price.

This is interesting but not quite what I want.

325$, how is that low-priced? I’ve never paid more then 200$ for a phone, I have an s20+ now.

Yeah… It is low priced if you look at Apple or Samsung higher end or recent models… otherwise yes it is expensive.

I wish I could just keep using a GSM/CDMA phone from 20 years ago indefinitely sometimes.

Somewhere (and it keeps moving) is a small pile of cellphones that I haven’t gotten around to getting rid of. Every few years I’ll do some cleaning/rearranging and stumble across an old Motorola Razor flip phone and I kinda miss it.

The size and weight were good. Solid construction (dropped the thing a few times and it took the fall like a champ). Doesn’t do smart phone stuff, but hey, there was enough memory that it could store some audio files and simple text files.

I have an e-ink notebook. The low refresh rate is intolerable for doing anything like menus or text input.

I like the idea of a minimal phone but I think e-ink is a deal breaker for me, and I suspect most others.
