Here’s a list of reasons:

- no heating issue

- price so cheap, if problematic, just throw away

- fell down so many times already, including in the middle of the highway last new year’s eve when I forgot that it was on top of the car – and still works fine

- obscure Taiwan OS (MTK): guarantee you wont be distracted by being overconnected: as long as can call and SMS, plus some multimedia functions

- AFAIK, very secure: can’t even go online: that’s what laptops are for… :-)

Sometimes I chuckle at the fact that while it might not be worth as much as a gold krugerrand, unlike many other smartphones, it still serves me well dealing with important work-related calls…
