Typing on a T9 keyboard is worse than you remember.You might not be fully cut off from the modern world, but the limited hardware these apps are running on means that, for all intents and purposes, you basically are. Maps and emails take forever to load, and WhatsApp messages take an age to manually type out. TheyвЂ™re all technically here.Д«ut the thing is, youвЂ™d have to have the patience of a saint to actually use these services on a device as limited as this. Yes, youвЂ™ll be accessing them on an absolutely tiny 2.8-inch display and typing into them with a basic T9 keyboard, but fundamentally you wonвЂ™t be cut out of your WhatsApp conversations, you wonвЂ™t have to be without email, and you wonвЂ™t even have to go without Google Maps.

The difference with this yearвЂ™s ВЈ89.99 Nokia 2720 Flip is that, for the first time, it actually has most of the apps and services you need in a phone in 2019. Two years ago it produced an updated version of the iconic 3310, and last year it remade the 8110, the вЂњbanana phoneвЂќ similar to the model used in the original Matrix movie. ItвЂ™s these latter two groups that HMD has been pitching its retro-styled feature phones at for a couple of years now. Either you live or work in the developing world, where smartphones sometimes arenвЂ™t a practical option, youвЂ™re the kind of person who thrives on nostalgia for a simpler time, or else youвЂ™re trying to do a вЂњdigital detox,вЂќ and decrease the amount of time you seem to waste staring at screens every day. If youвЂ™re seriously considering buying a feature phone like the Nokia 2720 Flip in 2019 then I think youвЂ™re likely to be one of three kinds of people.
