smartphone for an old skool guy

[Anonymous]

hey - wanted some advice, want to bring my hubby away from his plain old nokia 2730 to the 21st century.  Hes always had a Nokia so thinking of sticking with them to ease him in gently lol.  Any advice of a good stepping stone phone which isn't touch screen as i don't think hes quite ready for that just yet

Priorities would be:

decent camera

wifi connectivity

access to standard apps - whats app etc

active dual sim would be a bonus but can't have everything.

Am i asking for too much.... or does this phone exist?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated - thanks

Yeah...no-ones ever had a problem with an iPhone, Samsung, Nokia or HTC phone...

Have you had a look at the new BlackBerry 10 phones? Its a whole new operating system on these phones and the Z10 has THE best keyboard on the touchscreen. Everyone I have shown the phone to has been impressed with it, not least because its so fast to do anything on. There are a whole lot of other features that you should really look into before dismissing an entire brand of phone because of problems you may have had with what I'm guessing was a cheap BlackBerry Curve over 18 months ago....

The Blackberry 10 phones are streets ahead of the previous generation, and as even my Boss likes the Z10 after years of Nokia's I'm sure anyone can
