Wow I wish they had announced this sooner. I just ordered a keyphone but this looks way more suited to my use case. I just want a basic feature phone + qwerty keyboard + signal + whats app.
I've been using a lightphone for 3 years but i can't stand the touch screen and only having SMS is annoying.
What do you use for maps? Or paying for parking which maybe isn't the case for you but in my city requires use of a smartphone app. What about music and podcasts? Asking cause I would like to use a dumb phone if possible but it seems like it would actually introduce a lot of friction into daily life.
I pay for parking with quarters or a credit card.
If necessary I use a piece of paper for maps.
For music I have an ipod.
And you watch movies on your VHS?

The Keyphone they are referencing is Android, so those things can be worked around to some degree.
Hopefully! Supposedly it is pretty locked down but I'm hopeful there is a way to get other apps onto it.
