Coconut

Having had to bring my smartphone into the phone repair shop I was forced into using my old samsung coconut.

- It flips which as we all know is cool.
- It's lighter and smaller than any smartphone I've had.
- I still haven't had to charge it even after 4 days of use.
- The alarm off it is so loud it'll wake the neighbours.
- It's got sudoku.

All hail the coconut.

It can't monitor your sleep patterns.
What's the point?

I still use an old Nokia most of the time. I have a Galaxy smart phone but 99% of my phone use is just calls and texts, and the old one is tiny and handy.

Love the old Nokia, never dies on me.

Would not be able to downgrade to a dumbphone myself. They serve their purpose but without any ability to access internet, emails, certain applications, etc. It would just annoy me.

If your job is on the move, I can see why. I like being able to leave it all behind though, it's too tempting to check things too frequently. I don't need to read emails every 15 minutes.

It's when you're in a restaurant/pub or whatever that you need to just keep it in back pocket really. People rely on their phones way too much as a comfort mechanism.

The RAZR is still an awesome phone in terms of looks.

Never had a flip phone, just went from tiny screen with buttons to early smartphone with the touch screen sensitivity of a LUAS ticket machine, to a modern Samsung one.

From watching Breaking Bad though, it made feel like I missed out on the coolness.

Amhrán an Choconut

I've a forty euro nokia, I've had it for the past three years or so. Did briefly switch to a Samsung Galaxy but after a few days I got pissed off with it and switched back. This one texts, calls, lets me on facebook and to check emails, fm radio, sudoku. I can live with only checking twitter and news-sites etc during the 6-8 hours a day I'm in front of a computer if it means I only have to charge the thing a couple times a week and not worry about it breaking if someone looks at it funny.

Is your coconut an Android phone? Do Android have an OS called "Lime"?

Because if so I have a hilarious joke ready to go. You'll pish yourselves laughing. Oh just you wait.
