Don't want to be pessimistic, but I guess all "high tech", especially customers "internet of things" and mobile devices, will be the first thing to become unusable bricks in the doomsday scenario. Better keep pen and paper at hand... Or at least a reliable printer and your old solid notebook ;-)

This.
In the event of a worldwide, cataclysmic event, probably the first thing that'll go is the Internet and electronic devices. Not immediately but within a couple weeks.
The best thing is to rely on things that don't need an Internet connection. Morse code might be worth learning because it requires the smallest medium to send a message.
