    How I've always ever approached technology. Last gen will be just as fascinating to you, if it's new to you.

    You mean besides make a phone call?

    You can:
    -- get a wake up call that will not fail. Think about that, yeah.
    -- start a conversation when a visitor asks, what is it, a souvenir from Disneyland?
    -- bash someone in self defense (I would not want to be hit by one, for sure) and still call 911 with it after you put him down.
    -- theoretically, at least, call 911 after a nuke attack. Who knows, about then the president might be the only one left in the country able to talk to you on a telephone. Call him up.
    -- call Putin and ask him if he has Sir Walter Raleigh in a can.
    -- completely ignore it.

    Given that my $20 feature phone and $35/month Net 10 subscription serve me well for years, expensive stuff does not impress me.

    My $40 tablet serves me since early '17 -- no need for expensive stuff.

    My feature phone has 4 GB memory -- enough to browse Internet and forums. There are lots of amazing and cheap gadgets.
