yes, no

yes, no

idk

i just use my phone for the clock, alarm, timer, reading email, and porn
so a dumbphone with an email client and a big screen for porn will do just fine, bonus if it has an ssh client and a real keyboard

Impyling i'm not already

Reasons to never go back to a dumb phone:

There's better now
Typing on them is hell

Anybody COULD but the real question is why would you?

Using a dumbphone today is the gsyest hipsterfaggot thing desu

Why did you put sage in the name field you idiot, it goes in the option field

I like checking Twitter/Cred Forums anytime of day/the odd video.

I could.
The only things that makes me stay with my One M7 are that dumb phones are a pain to type messages with, I can't check my train schedule on it, and I can't browse 4kek whenever I want.

fuck off Smartphones are for hipsters

sage in all fields

No, smartphones are like the Iphone

As long as it has a MP3 player and alarm, yes. That's all I use my phone for. And it's barely "smart" at all already.

yes, I would've gone back to a dumbphone, but I got an iphone for free to replace my shitty old samsung

I already would have if they made a 4G dumbphone with QWERTY keyboard, Wi-Fi tethering, and Bluetooth PAN

I did for a few months when I was traveling a few years ago. It was surprisingly comfy after I put my smartphone's SD card into the dumb phone so I could just play whatever I wanted

if there was a better way for ubiquitous internet then totally, dumbphones are more aesthetically designed than smartphones [spoiler]because they're not trying to copy iphone[/spoiler]

Yes. No.

I pretty much only use my phone for games while on the shitter and for general utilities like an alarm and clock which most dumphones do as well.

I don't even have a plan or anything.

No.

If I'd get a new dumbphone I'd have start carrying my laptop everywhere again.

Probably not, I barely use a phone for typical phone functions. All communication is done through Whatsapp, I barely call. Most important is web browsing and document reading and editing, too.

>Could you ever go back to using a dumbphone?
yes i did
>Are you addicted to your smartphone?
yes, that's why I went back

I waited so long to switch because I knew I wouldn't go back.

The real question is how long will you keep using a laptop or tablet? I barely use mine anymore.

no and no.

I would miss browsing Cred Forums anywhere I go tho

>Could you ever go back to using a dumbphone?
I could as long as it provides a hotspot for my laptop and can handle mms group chats. Also it's implied that the dumbphone uses 3-4G
I would switch back instantly if flip phones weren't hipster status. Personally idgaf but I hate hearing the same "omg you STILL use a flip phone?!?" response from the normies.
>Are you addicted to your smartphone?
nope. I only use it to respond to notifications/send calls.

Pic related is my last dumbphone, 2G service is nonexistent nowadays in my area so it had to go

I had one of those, just found the charger the other day. Now I've got to find the phone, haven't seen my ex's tits in years

I have, I gone back to my 8210.

I use whatever gets me the most pussy. It used to be iphones but now its flip phone. It gives you an aura of seriousness. Whenever somebody mentions it I will just say "yeah I didn't want to spend all that time playing mobile games and facebook" and I see the guilt on their face because that's what they spend all their time on.

shit is cash

Dumb phones are productive in this sense they allow the user strict communication through voice and concise SMS, enabling for other tasks and less fixation on a large screen.

>implying i haven't already
GSM service still exists in Russia, pic related: my phone.

really want a nokia 515
currently on a lumia icon- battery life is okay but will undoubtedly go to shit when windows 10 gets forced on me
too bad im in america on verizon
verizon doesnt have a single nice nokia that isnt a smartphone

I could go back to flip style feature phone with 4G. Looking up things on the go is just so convenient.

I got a smartphone because my memory went to shit and I started to forget where I left my phone and wanted the ability to geolocate it.
After I got a smartphone I leave gps turned off because muh privacy
I might aswell go back to a dumbphone, but it would actually cost more at this point.

No, no.
Not a fan of using outdated hardware.

>Implying i am not going to buy pic related.

>dumbphone

I'd like that. It's not like I call anyone anyways. I just use my phone to shitpost and look at porn while I lay in bed.

No. I can't go back to using a dumbphone. I'm currently using one, so I'd have to switch to a smartphone first and then go back.
Yes, I'm soooooo addicted to my nonexistent smartphone.

Yes

No

When my current phone breaks I want to get a motorola razr since it does everything I need from a phone

As someone stuck with a Galaxy S7 because I'm a moron, what should I do about phones while in South Korea?

I need one that does English and Hangul, and I don't think l can just swap sims.

Going to be there 2-3 years.

Im only using my "smart"phone to phone and read sms, so...

Too bad my old phone broke down completely and had to be held with ducktape.

Why is Cred Forums so autistic that they dislike smartphones

I'm not addicted. It's just fucking useful. It's a swiss army knife. 12 years ago, all you contrarian retards would be bragging about your colour phones, MP3 players, watches, game handhelds, electronic organisers...

Then all of a sudden you don't need all of that stuff, because everyone has it. Please die.

No, no

Smartphones are for normie niggers. Like you.

They track normies doing normie things so better profiles can be built and used by the NStasiA, never mind shoving more ads down your throat in order to get you to buy more meaningless normie consumer shit you don't need.

Fuck off back to Fecesbook normie

I don't have a smart phone because I'm not stupid.
My phone has an audio jack, it has a full keypad and I don't waste my time doing nothing on it. I fucking hate the touch screens that seem to permeate everywhere now. Slow to respond and the input lag is insanely annoying. Fuck touch screens!

nice blog

thanks, it took me 30 minutes to write it.

I do

I think I could, I'd just need to always lug around my macbook instead though.

do you know what a dumb phone is?

Yes, no.

ah so it's for people with no self control
using a dumbphone is like turning on the parental controls for your communication life

I'm still faster on a T9 keyboard than a touch qwerty. And you could use it "blind" without having to even look at your phone.

>Could you ever go back to using a dumbphone?
Yep. Went back to a Nokia brick after several years with Android phones.

>Are you addicted to your smartphone?
I was and that is why I ditched the smartphone. Constant internet exposure ruined my memory as the urge to google everything and constantly rely on GPS maps, etc. took over traditional long-term retention.

I use my phone as a fucking phone, so going back to a dumbphone wouldn't be much of a problem. I'd miss the zune player on my Lumia though, I've gotten used to it so much.

I think I used it maybe once to access the net in a hotel, since I forgot to bring a book with me. And even that ate the battery on it like crazy (for what its worth, its a five years old phone, so crap battery is expected.).

no
no
browser on phone is too nice

only cucks rely on thier phones like its a lifeline

Fuck, I really miss my SE k700i.

All you stupid faggots trying so hard to convince everyone you aren't a "normie"

I have a smart phone and I couldn't go back to using a dumb phone. I have a real job, and that job requires me to be productive on the go during work hours.

I have to send emails, take calls, read contracts, schedule calendar events. All sorts of fucking shit that makes me more productive, and makes me more money so I don't have to live with mommy and eat her chicken tendies.

Yes
Yes

Fuck "smart" phones and apps for wiping your fucking ass.

I love my dumbphone!

Why wouldn't I be looking at my phone while I type on it anyway?. I don't really even need to look at the keyboard when I type on my phone.

Normie REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

I play Ingress so no and yes.

It used to be handy in school to be able to text without looking at your phone. I guess it could be handy too while driving, so you can just glance at your phone when replying and then write the message without looking. Stuff like that.

And I definitely need to look at my phone when writing with touch keyboards. With physical keyboard you could feel what buttons you were pressing. On a touch screen you kinda have to guess.

I don't care what I'm using as long as it's making photos, plays music through bluetooth and can handle emails.
btw. I'm selling my xperia right now and getting back to SE k850i.

No

Yes

why would you jack off with your phone thats retarded HAHAHAHAHAHHA im a second generation old school jackoffer NAH MEEN? get an ipod classic with 160gigs that shit will store a few copies of avatar prerendered uncompressed get a sturdy construction worker dumb phone its afterall just a telecomunication device why would you need a computer do you want to be one of those dorks thats going to get his shit stolen one day i get it if you want like a bitcoin wallet but like would you really want to have an e wallet with a fishhook + fishline hooked to it that any momo with enough technical knowhow can just pull out NA MEEN?

i disagree with you pal first of all dumbphones dont distract you they basically connect you with people they allow you to have enough free time to think instead of clicking your uncles carrots on farmville its botnetfrei its basically everything you ever want it to be

I keep an old nokia candybar around for when I inevitably smash my smartphone two months before the contract expires.

It's kind of relaxing desu
