Time marches on! Cell phone obsolete! [View all]

Constant tech upgrades. Just what I need, at the time of year I have to do my taxes! I won't emerge from the cave until April.

Will I learn to use a smart phone easily?

Will I find a Samsung Galaxy J2 sort of good for starter phone?

I hardly use a cell phone. But I do need one.

Any recommendations on phones, brand, model?

Thanks.
