Ok so im due a phone upgrade and i have but one simple request. It be a good quality phone with real buttons! Really is that simple lol. :) I cant stand touch screen, i care not about games i have a good pc, i care not about the web (also have a pc) i dont care about a cammera i have a digital slr.

Good luck lol i can find only one thats not a blackberry with there stupid tiny individual keys.

https://www.o2.co.uk/shop/phones/nokia/asha-300/ Probs just going to get this one tbh and hope it lasts me a long whilst, proper phones like this it seems are headed for exctintion im all for new tech but stupid new tech for the sake of it aint my thing.

Anyone else a real touch screen hater? im the only one i know :O
 
lol you may have won too :P Been looking at these so called tough phones but cant seem to get one as an upgrade, might just sack my contract and go pay as you go to get one
 
I do not understand why you do not want internet access on your phone. It's exceptionally useful, even for very light users. My 65+ year old nan has a Galaxy S3 and uses the internet!
 
I had a basic samsung e1080 for a while, very quick to use... Probably do an updated version now. Instead of games it just had game as there was only one lol!

I'm a recent touch screen convert though. They do everything with ease!
 
I had the Nokia c100. Loved it and now my bf uses it. Its only about £60 now too. Plus you can get online if you have to check something.

I don't mind the touchscreen on nexus 4 and I hated them before this.

Helps finding places stupidly easy
 
You're missing the point a little bit with a smartphone I feel. Gaming on a phone is not supposed to supplant a pc and neither is the camera to replace a DSLR, it's to shoot "right now" shots, not get out your lens and take your time :)

I respect that this is a personal choice but your personal wishes are against the market who the device makers will aim towards - their goals are wider than your personal purchase unfortunately.

Times changed, you might even like one of them if you give them a try. Perhaps the challenge should be that you embrace change instead of wishing for the old times ;)
 
I don't understand what having a PC or a DSLR has to do with not wanting a smartphone, but whatever :shrug:. I don't know how you can't find any phones with buttons though :confused:.
