Goodbye Touchscreen Phone!

The first 'touchscreen phone' experience for me was when I bought my Sony Ericsson P1i in 2008. I loved it as it lets me choose to use the qwerty keys or touchscreen and the stylus can just be snapped at the back. This phone is the only touchscreen, WIFI phone I had that can take decent photos. The only thing missing is that this isn't a walkman phone but the audio quality isn't that bad at all.

Then the full touchscreen phones came out and I was into pink phones. It made me buy the Samsung Star WIFI which I only used for about a month and then accidentally left it in a cab when I was on my way to work with morning sickness. :(

I was then encouraged to buy a new pink touchscreen phone that has 3.5mm audio jack which lead me to an LG KM555e. Unlike other touchscreen phones, this one doesn't have any attached stylus so it pains to text, go online or do anything else that requires typing.

A few months after using this full touchscreen-WIFI phone, I realized that the full touchscreen isn't really for me. I then longed for the simple, bar type, non-qwerty, non-wifi phone that allows me to text and call without thinking of pressing the wrong part of the screen. Patiently, I waited for a white Nokia C2-00 to be available in the market and now, 3 years after my first touchscreen phone experience, I'm back to basics.

While everyone is into touchscreen and BlackBerry phones, I find nothing fancy about Nokia C2-00 and that's why I like it. :)
