Everything I hoped for will be!

I've had this phone for about 24 hours now and I don't think I'll ever go back to my full sized smartphone. It can do literally everything a full-size smartphone can. But you can't always want it, and that's the point. This phone has allowed me to keep everything I "need" in life. Travel sharing apps, Google Maps, mobile hotspot, email, etc. And these apps are really very easy to use even in this small form factor. You won't be writing big replies to your emails or surfing social media a lot, and for some of us, that's a positive thing. But don't be fooled. The phone is capable of solving all the tasks that originally tied you to a smartphone. Here are the pros and cons and some tips. Pros: * The first thing that struck me right away is that it heals 100% distracted driving. You won't be tempted to use it while driving because it's almost impossible.* Love how it fits in my pocket. Yes, it fits perfectly in a coin pocket! It's slightly larger than a keychain. My jeans no longer have white rectangular top edges. * He is well weighted. * The phone's processor/RAM is fast enough and it has enough memory for everything you really need to do with it. * The flashlight is bright and the cameras aren't that terrible. * Full Android, Play Store and all. * FM Radio is actually a really great app that even lets you record songs off the air to save for later. And it doesn't use data. * The home button is an LED that can flash different colors to notify you of missed calls or SMS. * Expandable memory and removable battery. * Headphone jack. * Built-in speaker that isn't terrible. Cons: * The screen resolution is low. It would be nice to have a little more PPI to avoid blurry or jagged letters on a tiny screen. *Battery life is not quite a full day with moderate use. He can also be called a pro in the overall digital detox strategy. You'll find that you want to conserve your phone's battery for more important tasks. * Typing is harder than you are used to. I can find ways around it, voice input, gesture keyboard but it's still harder than on my big phone. * The edges of the touch screen may not be accurate. Tips: * Install a keyboard like Gboard or Swiftkey and use gesture input. This helps a crowd scramble to find your word rather than pointing out the exact letter. I also found that Gboard works great in landscape mode. This is one of the few phones that can be typed with one hand in landscape mode. With that, Swiftkey did some weird things in the landscape. * Install a launcher like Nova Launcher that gives you home screen gestures. I use gestures in Nova to launch multiple apps and it saves me from having to tap them. I can let her go without looking. * Go to Settings, About Phone, Build Number and tap Build Number repeatedly until you see Developer Options. Internal developer options include "Show visual touches". This lets you know where your touches are registering when you're on the edge of the screen and having trouble.* Go to Settings, Accessibility and turn on Magnification. This will come in handy. Triple-tapping anywhere enlarges the screen and makes it easier for you to click links or other buttons. I highly recommend this phone. This is something you won't understand until you try!
