It is the era of the smart phone but I am contented using my feature phones. Feature phones have just two features voice and texting. I am contented with it as I have a nice camera that satisfies my passion for photography
Smart phones have the WhatsApp feature and lets you download Apps. I do not like either of these.
I prefer to work on my computer rather than have those tiny screens to watch videos and stuff.
What's your choice?

My smart phone and smart watch make my life a lot easier. I find their features handy for a lot of things. Due to my low vision, watching something a tiny screen is preferable. However, I can understand both sides.

In what way does bad vision help work on a tiny screen. I thought it was the other way around.

@allknowing Sometimes depending on the type of loss, smaller is better. I have tunnel vision. So the smaller something is, the more I see.

I seem to like the current smartphones right now since it makes me look at one device to look for emails, chat with someone, browse my soc media apps, and many other things. Those legacy phones are good for longevity since they consume less power thereby having a much longer battery life which is a good point for legacy phones.

@allknowing Yes it is better to have a wider screen that is why most Smartphone has no more keyboard compared to legacy phones. They show as a digital keyboard whenever you need it.

I am not very active and so I too can say if I was active I could earn more using my desk top
What is it that you do that helps you earn that much?

@allknowing Freelance writing, surveys, product testing, studies.
I write on average 15 actual articles through my freelance work a week. Then I have the smaller "writing" sites like this and noise.cash that add to what I earn. As well as Vocal.

the phone in picture activated my memory,i recalled the era of Feature phone,back then owning a Feature phone was honorable,even if it had far less function then smart phone,we were still content with such a phone.Now the smart phone nearly occupied whole market,even children used smart phone.the old-version phone just became a souvenir today.

I know of the several features that smart hone has but it is the tiny screen that bothers me. I go to my desk top and get what I want on a big screen. My tv has the youtube and netflix
