                  Feature phone with top specs like they used to have until 2008 is best for me. No need for Smartphone cuz tablet does the job even better if needed.

                    Arif238, 05 Jul 2018Does it have Hotspot tethering to connect other device to i... moreI didn't think so.
                    Wait for the release maybe they gonna add that later.

                      I'm waiting for qwerty 4g phone since jio phone release. Finally but i want a oreo go os,i hope blackberry gonna release blackberry torch 9810 or blackberry classic with oreo go. Nokia should try pkb phone too.
                      I think jio phone 2 gonna start a new trends ,at least in indian mobile market with this 4gqwerty keypad phone.

                        Andy, 05 Jul 2018So the $44 JioPhone 2 has NFC yet the $700 Vivo Nex S doesn't?a 1.000.000€ car usually doesnt have a trunk while 10.000€ cars do often tend have a quite huge trunk...just buy a phone with nfc I guess? I personally dont nfc for nothing, nor do I need a front camera or 3 back cameras - if you do, just buy the phone that fits your needs, there are so many.
