    I mean this depends on your viewpoint. Yes it is my off-hours daily. (I have to have a smartphone when working)

    It can:

    • Call and text Edit: this IS a 4g device, and has support for VoLTE, so it has modern call quality. Most feature phones you can buy suck as phones.
    • Play a bunch of games
    • Has a pretty good MP3 player (also can connect to modern bluetooth devices (!!!))
    • Has a camera of completely reasonable quality
    • It can display pictures, play videos, view all sorts of documents. (Ebooks .docs, xlsx-es, ppt-s)
    • Even the maps work (although who knows for how long)
    • Has microSD XC support

    So it basically does what my w800i does, but in a way newer phone. In my view it does everything a modern device does, except for all the doomscrolly bits.

    So yeah, if you need a weekend phone, picking up a lumia makes a whole lot of sense in my view.
