What kind of phones are good?
Posted: Sun Apr 30, 2017 5:08 am
My BlackBerry's been annoying me lately- the keyboard sucks ass, and is constantly delayed compared to my normal typing speed. Every time I select text, the screen jumps around repeatedly, and the "command" buttons to press randomly vanish. PLUS I think my iPod is dying, as the battery only lasts... I dunno, but it feels like less.
So I figured I'd just kill two birds with one stone and get a new phone/music player ENTIRELY. But I don't know what's good.
Anyone have any recommendations?
The stuff I care about:
1) Fast Keyboard- This is an absolute MUST. My position on this is intractable and adamantine. I type a lot, and at great speeds- if this thing can't keep up, then it will drive me goddamn batty.
2) The screen doesn't do randomly dumb things. Like, you can load up a page without having it jump all over the place.
3) Play music. At least as well as an iPod, if not better. I think all phones can do this now, right? I'll need at least 32 GB of memory for all of that, plus pictures.
4) A camera that doesn't suck. It doesn't have to be professional-grade (I mean, it's a PHONE), but mine puts white paper into greyscale for some reason.
5) Cost. A bit. I think my phone company will dock a certain amount of payment for re-signing with them, but I don't want to be spending like $800 or something stupid. An iPhone 6 will do if a 7 is too expensive.
