I have the version two Nokia 8110 banana phone with KAIOS. First, web dev isn't good enough for me. I need crypto libraries on the device. Second,unless I've yet to discover how to turn it on, no predictive text input. Third, it ships with Google apps which, combined with the fact that you cannot uninstall apps on KaiOS makes the phone a novelty at best. More like a waste of €60 (none of these issues are obvious before making a purchase). /Edit - battery lasted two weeks between charges.

"Edit - battery lasted two weeks between charges" Way to bury the lead! I'd put up with a lot for charge times that long. Or just a backup phpne

  Minor nit, but I always appreciate receiving these -- in US English as well as British I believe it's always written "bury the lede"

    I don't think that's the case. Lede is at best an alternative spelling, according to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lead_paragraph#Spelling https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lead_paragraph#Spelling and FWIW, I'm British and I've never seen it spelt lede outside of this forum. I guess it's an American thing, and even then, it's pretty wrong.

      I'm British and I'd spell it as lede, that's how I've predominantly seen it spelt also. So as clear as mud then!

      FWIW, I'm British and I've only ever seen it spelt 'lead' by Americans on this forum :)

  If you don't use any apps out of distaste you can get pretty impressive battery life on any phone.
