i've wanted one for a few years but they seem to be either trash to fill in the low end of phone plans, or extremely expensive boutique products for bougie people making a statement. would love to just use one of my old phones from back when they made good feature phones but there's no gsm support in my country, everything needs to be 4g :(
In retrospect, the LG Fusic was the best phone I ever had. I could play music, even connect it to my car over FM. I could text and call. It had Sprint Navigation or whatever. I could even sort of search Google with Opera Mini. And that was it. No email, no Slack, no social media, no games, no app store. And the browser was convenient enough to use for quick answers but inconvenient enough to discourage trying to do much else.
FM transmitting in a phone is extremely sick, that's a great feature
