They are not classic phones, only modern crap with ancient design unfortunately...

How are they different with regards to the stuff we were talking about - specifically, the centralized spying and such?

I've used a Wiko Lubi for a year. It seems to have the architecture as a 3310: it has a basic burned-in OS, without any apps or updates, and has a few basic tools like a calculator and calendar, besides the phone calls and SMSs. In what way does it not fit with a classic model?

If your complaint is the exact same models don't keep getting produced, then sure, but that wasn't the discussion I thought we were having.

Regarding cars I won't comment any further, since I don't know the market well.



They differ in terms of usability and stability, they all feel crappy, uncomfortable, unreliable, made of poor plastic...

If you still have ancient Nokia try only the feeling of their physical keys, the simplicity of their classic menu compared to those modern "devices"...
