      Who uses their phone to be just a phone these days?

      I’d say the phone part is the least used of my phone.

        Raises hand — my phone is primarily for communicating with other people. When I want a computer, I have my desktop for that, or if it’s too big to take with me then I’ll have my laptop.

        The only other thing it’s commonly used for is music/podcasts. And once a week or so I’ll take a photo.

        Sure, I don’t make as many voice calls as I used to, but text communication counts if you ask me - cell phones have had that feature since 1992.

      If it’s “just a phone”, it’s not running Android. No Android that I ever heard of is “just a phone”.

        What I meant is that I use it just as a phone (a bit more useful yes).
        Calls, sms/messages/emails, music and some pictures rarely.
        That’s it.
