This phone is 'anti-iPhone'​

LONDON: If multi-function phones leave you dazed, here's the answer -- a mobile phone that just makes calls and does nothing else has been developed. No MP3, no apps and no, not even texts can be operated on it.

"John's Phone" neither checks Facebook nor follows Twitter feeds. It, however, has a battery life of three weeks and has a manual just one page long, the Sun reported.

There's more. The phone's address book is actually a pen and paper notepad that is tucked behind a flap on the back.

A little smaller than an iPhone, it is 10.5 cm long. It is called the "anti-iPhone". Dutch advertising agency John Doe that created the phone is hoping that it will be a hit with buyers who are left confused by modern technology and youngsters who are buying their first phone.

Costing from 59 pounds in white up to 67 pounds in pink or green, the sole modern feature is the ability to assign ten speed-dial numbers.

"At a time when there is an abundance of choices and oppressive channels, we wanted to develop a simple gadget," designer Diedriekje Bok was quoted as saying.

You guys might be surprised. A lot of older people hate the complexity of modern phones. They just want to make a phone call.

I don't use 95% of the apps on my phone. If so, why have them?

The "Jitterbug" phone beat these guys by years:

Big buttons. Old people's hands often shake.

But I think at a minimum, you need an address book with contact info and speed dial.

And you are calling Samsung Galaxy as anti i-phone.

anti Iphone meaning the exact opposite of i-phone. The i-phone can do many things, has many apps, etc, etc, but as an opposite, this phone can only call.

Me for example, and fellow technophobes.

£59 for a phone with a contact diary at the back... LOLZ sorry but that's a no brainier.

big NO, call me new school, but phones with multimedia functions rock. especially, Sony ericsson kicks butt when it comes to multimedia, with a 12 mega pixel camera on my Satio & HD video quality, iphone and galaxy seem newbies. besides i phone is one overly hyped crappy phone.

 

[Mughal-Prince]

Nice Idea but expensive at this price ...

 

[somebozo]

sounds like the kosher phone marketed in israel..will be popular with hardline rabbis and mullahs alike!

 

[Gentle Typhoon]

My next phone is going to be Israeli based modu -

Micromax has partnered with Israel's modu to launch the modu T phone in India.

Micromax Modu T is listed in Guinness World Records as Worlds lightest touch phone, weighs only 55g. This tiny device has 3G, 5MP camera.

Micromax Mobile : modu-t
