    Honestly that would be great phone for my sister... she keeps breaking her phones screen and dropping it with dishes all the time... and now she wants a new phone bcuz her current phone wont work... if she doesent want 3310 then we're gonna buy her a sturdy-ish smartphone

    Too expensive to be a burner phone and too outdated and small for someone to use it as their cellphone considering you can buy a relatively decent smartphone for 50$

    If it's as indestructible as its former incarnation, then yes, I'm buying it.

    In a country where thugs that hold you at knife/gunpoint to rob you blind is commonplace, having such a phone would be handy when dishing out poetic justice by bashing their heads in with it..

    This is a joke right? Who would buy this seriously, its specs are just plain terrible. If you want a sturdy phone you can get way better than this nowadays.

    While I do understand most of your point, I can't really see how the battery of it would be bad.

    My old phone had a battery that lasted a week usually, my current phone's battery lasts 1-2 days, I cannot understand how the old battery can possibly be seen as bad.
    That has nothing to do with being a child or not.

    I personally find buttons to be a lot more pleasing and easy to use than the touch screen, and I am 20 years old, it's a matter of preference, not age.

    The lack of functions available to it is certainly a big downside, but I cannot understand the correlation between buttons and age, specially because it's pretty easy to see children enjoy playing around with touchscreens on tablets nowadays.




    As for me, I won't buy it, I still have my old phone at home, it's not a 3310, but it's similar to it, I don't really need an old phone when I already own one.

    Besides, the smartphone is more practical, even if I like the old ones more.

    They've literally given up and just can't be fucked trying anymore. They know they will never be at the same peak they once were...

    What a shit product in all honesty. I can only see elderly people being the demographic for this, and the people who are going to buy it for the lols.
