I can also easily take my smartphone with me when I think there is a real need. The 4g dumbphone can share the internet to my smartphone.

So it's a bar phone with a hotspot? I was hoping for something like that. I have a tablet with wifi only but I'd like to be able to listen to Spotify or audio books, use maps, etc when I'm driving. But then again, I also like to walk the dog and listen to books/music so I'd have to carry 2 phones unless it supports all Android apps.
