      Feature phones typically have more “features” than dumbphones, hence the name. They almost always run Android as well which means they build in all sorts of telemetry and dependencies.

        I consider anything that even touches data (even 3gp or email) and can play MP3s a feature phone. Even if this thing didnt play MP3’s, the fact it can read ebooks I’d say makes it one.

        Is 3gp still a thing?

          You’re free to disagree. I’m not the one telling others they’re wrong for having a different perspective.

          Never heard of it, did you mean 3G?
