Explaining Japan’s feature phone fetish

=============

Japan still maintains to sell an old type of mobile phones which are not smartphones. It is called in garakei in Japanese that means Galapagos keitai. Keitai means mobile phone in Japan.

Now the majority of mobile phone users is a smartphone user in advanced nations. But, Japanese garakei is still catching on with the users. Actually I am using both types of phones; garakei and smartphone.

There are both advantages and disadvantages. Garakei is almost specialized in a function to talk. The users use it to just call and receive calls. They so often use the Internet with it and with just short mails that is a kind of instant mails. The function of calling will be superior to the smartphone in a term of clear voice.

And also, the size is more compact of carrying. Users often say that it has a long battery life. Many business people still go out to meet their clients and need to process their tasks anywhere without electricity. Battery life is essentially vital when they are not in the offices.

Actually I am using 4 devices such as a smartphone, garakei, pad and laptop. I research cafes to use an electricity when going out.

Garakei has not disappeared, although it seems to disappear. Phone is traditionally a talking tool. If the simple function perfectly keeps with a lower running cost and clear voice, Japanese garakei might be alive and survive for the long future.

Thank you for reading!!
