    yes, and i had a phone where the home button wasnt a touch screen and was actually a button

    I kinda miss when the home/back/menu buttons were actually buttons. So many accidental presses when they're part of the touch screen.

    My mom had an old Huawei that looked exactly like this, but I wasn't really allowed to use it since I was a kid save for the occasional youtube session, once I discovered what that was at least

    parent
  • 1 points OpposedScroll75

    I didn't but I know people who did have these

    Not the fastest nor the flashiest phones out there, but they were reliable and easy to use due to their size

    parent
  • 1 points UnforseenError

    parent

    You could get these for free through tracfone from Walmart all you had to do was pay like 10 a month or something like that but it was an abysmal nightmare to work with

    Yes, but it was from a brand called Wiko. My mother bought one (specifically a Wiko Sunny V2) and it turned out to be the #1 worst phone ever made by mankind. I kid you not I would much rather use an old classic Android phone from early 2010s as it would probably be better, and even if it is slower, at least it would have the actually plausible excuse of being ancient, but the Wiko had a brain aneurysm for literally everything, including something as basic as fucking SMS messaging.
