Mobile phones, built like a brick, running for days
The sad thing is that someone at Nokia seems to have just remembered those days and they've just announced the Nokia 515. A solidly designed aluminium and gorilla glass 'dumb phone' with a 30+ day standby time.
But they've been all cheap, ugly and badly built plastic things (I've owned a couple). The 515 is an attempt to see if people are still willing to pay slightly more for a simpler phone if it is good looking and well built.
