You may contemplate how annoying text input was with T9. We are quite spoiled by full keyboards on our slab phones.

- badsectoracula 2y agoEven back in T9 days i preferred to write "manually" - then again i don't really write that much on my phone. That said, i'd rather get something like a PinePhone, the software might be worse than most Android devices but at least i can replace/rewrite/do_something_with it.
- RajT88 2y agoI used to put a lot of stock in texting with perfect spelling, punctuation and capitalization. Even with a T9 phone. Eventually I got a cheap Nokia 9290, and it was heaven. My last (good) QWERTY phone was an E90 which was the perfect form factor. I have loosened up since then and care less about writing properly while texting. I still want an E90 running Android. (Side note: I had an Astro slide, and I wanted to love it, but the overall quality was not there)
- happymellon 2y agoI do find the full sized keyboards an interesting situation, where I should be able to type but since moving on from the iPhone 3g I absolutely fail at being able to hit the keys correctly. Hitting the period instead of space is extremely common, as are many other typos. I miss my Blackberry keyboard. Everything else is so much better these days.
