Don't worry - CB knows better than you. Smartphones are the devil

Yeah I know. My comment wasn't really aimed at your per se. I just find it

Agree. Never give advise unless asked; but SC did ask for advice.

Windows phones are cheap, such as a Lumia 635

I went this route at first too and regretted it every day after. Go Moto E or G

For yourself or your child?

Motorola Moto E, hands-down winner. Moto G if you will spend a bit more.
