Comment on Touchscreen smartphones aren't even fun or novel anymore, they're just necessities for daily life

I went through a time where I weaned myself from phones by using an ancient flip phone, plus an old Galaxy only on WiFi. Then I moved and needed text messaging etc and bought a $40 Kyocera at Radio Shack thinking it would be good enough. It… sort of was. Mainly I regret that it had a really shitty camera, plus god knows what insane Android spyware.
