a dinky keyboard. Way overpriced. The fastest? BFD. You refresh a page .015 seconds faster? Whoop-dee-doo.

I still can't believe I spent $2700 (actually $1800 after company assistance) for my first computer in 1990.
If you are leveraging your phone for business reasons, then I could see a high price. For me I am very nervous carrying around something so expensive. If it is just for personal reasons, then I am amazed that so much disposable income is available.

I upgraded from a flip phone about three years ago just to make it a little
bit easier to text. I can't even imagine watching movies on that little screen.

Under $300, does everything I ask it to. Wish the camera was better in low light otherwise could not be happier
