I want to get less reliant on my phone and go out more without it. One of the big use cases for my phone is music.
I have a lot of local music files and I would like to transfer them to a mp3 player. I would prefer something offline that I can drag files too. Also Bluetooth would be a plus so I can continue to use my earbuds.
Something easy to navigate would be ideal too. Basically like what iPods were like with a small screen where you can navigate easily and see album artwork.
Very cheap phone, disassemble, remove all radio antennnas. Voila! Untrackable pocket computer (and also as a MP3 player).
If in the US, you can get carrier-locked prepaid phones for like $20 USD, you don’t need service to get pass the set up (except for Verizon ones apparantly, even tho their MVNOs work fine).
