    If you have the same screen as a pocket calculator and your CPU only runs at a couple Mhz, then yeah you can make a battery last a while. People forget that the phones we carry around now are more powerful than the most powerful gaming computers that existed when this phone was popular.

      That’s correct, but how do 90% of people use this “computer” that cost them as much as a desktop PC? Correct, chatting on Facebook, Whatsapp, taking selfies, some clips on TikTok, playing CandyCrushes and little else, which results that the power that these sneaks have is more a commercial argument than something really useful, all this can be done with the smartphone on sale for 80 bucks. Oh yes, you can also make calls, if the battery still has enough charge when you need it. They are spyware from large corporations that use it to track your every move and action that everyone willingly carries in their pockets, or has it in front of their faces while crossing the street.
