Plus when something breaks on these phones, just throw it away and buy a new one.

Typically it lasts two years with our delivery truck drivers.

Even today, a big chunk of mobile phones sold are the low end phones like the Nokia 1000... cheap, durable, long lasting battery life, gets the job done with no fuss.

Retz, entry level touchscreens are crap. I touch the icon and wait for 10 seconds for something to happen. Then I find out tapped the wrong icon and click "back" and wait another ten seconds. Later, I try typing out a text message at 10 seconds per letter......

an hour later, I was able to send "hello there". Ten seconds later, I got a reply... "who are you? wrong send"

...not to mention the durability, battery life, etc. Tsaka parang masakit sa mata yung screen coz of the lower resolution

sa pinas - wala. :D

- current trend na touch screen (baka motion based na maging in by 2020).
- yung mga desktop pcs na split cpu/monitor - puro AIO na papalit nyan.

There is still a price advantage when buying split CPU/monitor systems. Price is cheaper plus you can get the exact specification you want.

All-in-one systems are usually great only for basic home use or office use. But once you turn to gaming or heavy graphics requirements, customizable machines are still the best.

^ for now ok pa nga yan. pero come 2020 - we'll see.

I have been building PC systems since the 1990s. Up to now I have yet to see any major trend to AIO systems. The only trend I see now is more people going to laptops than desktop units for their office or home computer needs.

Even entry level Samsung touchscreen phones are crappy. Sure they are faster but they also still lag.
