Why even get a smartphone if all you want is the basics? Might as well get a feature phone and enjoy the extra battery life.

I browse HN, take a lot of photos and make notes on OneNote. But to be honest I've often been tempted. The camera is probably the thing I'd most miss - I take a lot of photos of my kids and a feature phone camera won't cut the mustard

You can get a feature phone for $20; that leaves quite a bit for a decent point-and-shoot.

yes, but then you have to carry two things in your pocket, and you still can't browse HN or take notes on OneNote with either of them.
