       +title: I cant find a cheap dumbphone
       +date: 2022-10-01

       +I have been on the lookout of a truly cheap dumb phone but trying to find that sweet spot just isn't happening. I just want to call and get SMS - that's it.

       +This phone looks ideal at first glance, nice and simple. However, digging into it a bit more I see the following possible issues for my use case:
       +
       +* It's expensive, around £350 ($402) when you include import tax.
       +* Linked to the central login platform
       +* From installing apps to setting up the phone this "Light Account" is needed.

       +
       +Another one that's looks good, they even have an open source OS running it called MuditaOS.
       +
       +* The massive downside, it's nearly £340 ($380).
       +
       +Crazy prices if you ask me!
       +
       +What I am using currently is an old Nokia 2.3 with Unlauncher running, cost was around £60 ($75) 2 years ago.

       +I really wish there was a cheap and truly dumbphone out there..
