Club wifi, again!

You cold probably get a credit card into a ticket pocket but it would likely be a tight squeeze. My phone is smaller in both length and width at 3.25'' x 1.75'' x 0.7''

85mm x 43mm x 17mm

Its not that old - only about 10 years and charged every 10 days on holidays whether it needs it or not. The beauty of the clamshell is that it is happy to rub along with my keys and doesn't get pocket lint over the keys. It also cannot be misplaced as I always know it is in the right hand  front pocket of any trouser or jeans that I am using or in my hand in use.

Yep, that's thick. It has to be to fold in the way it does. My smartphone is less than half that thickness.

BTW, you must have a very fat credit card, Easy😀

2019 Galaxy 10 is 17mm thick and so mine is thicker but 65 mm shorter and 27mm narrower. I would not fancy a similar phone in my jeans or trouser pocket all day every day 365 days a year. 

my flip top occupies two thirds the volume of the Galaxy S10 and less than half the weight. The galaxy S10, which I consider a mid size smartphone and the smallest screen size I could cope with .

Never said that the phone was thinner than my credit card but certainly a significantly smaller footprint

My S10 variant is 142x70x8. Tbh, 17mm thick is huge for a smartphone and you've misread it I think, Easy, as the S10 is 150x70x8.

Yes, the width and height of mine is more than yours but it’s edge to edge glorious technicolour screen.😄

My comment about the credit card was because you told Rocky he'd be hard pushed to fit a credit card in the pocket you keep your phone in. Clearly, that was a joke.

We didn't get one until 2014, an iphone 5S, which we still have along with a first generation SE. We originally didn't think we needed one but we're talked into it. How wrong we were, they are so useful! As with our dumb phones they don't get used much as a standard phone, but are fully utilised for multiple applications, many of which run offline. I really like those that you can download for places you visit, such as one we used for a battlefield in France.

Mine also travels happily in my cargo pocked, in a little case that protects the screen. Although if you use disposable screen protectors like my son you don't need to bother. There are no keys to get linted up and on his no charging port or ear phone socket either.

ET, they are now keyless(buttonless) it’s all capacitive, lintless. I guess with your lack of interest in phone tech It’s ideal for you👍🏻. I let my GK’s play with my last Motorola until it gave in. The new Razr is flip & top tech👍🏻

I know how to use one and all about the buttonless etc. I also know that any that I might choose would be 50% bigger by volume far longer and wider than my phone and particularly in a case, and consequently not on my person at all times. Does your phone stay on your person at all times even when wearing jeans and working in the garden etc?

I bought Fliss a £500 smartphone for her birthday last year (it is her birthday today). The purchase was mainly to make it easier to take images without the bulk of a camera in her bag. Has, on occasion, used it to navigate in city areas. For a daily carry she has a small flip top like mine. 

For internet use I prefer my 10'' Tablet. It is to hand in the car on days out along with the mifi. 

Yes it does, it’s my money(I don’t carry a wallet) it’s my camera, it’s my satnav, it’s my Bank. I don’t like bulky I like slim. It also mirrors on a smart TV as in what’s on the phone screen is on the TV screen so it’s like a home cinema👍🏻😊.

PS-I don’t wear jeans, it’s soooo Jeremy Clarkson😂

And I don't wear cargo pants or combats- not for many years. 

Oh and I don't watch TV 

My original post, although most of it has now been Deleted User, was making the point that I have paid for Club Wi-fi and yet it was unavailable. 
as a result I have now found out how to connect my smartphone, which I already knew & everybody’s opinion on smartphones which I use for everything (except levelling my caravan). I have also found out which pocket I should keep it in & what trousers/shorts members prefer.  Nobody, yet, has commented on the policy of the Club to continue to charge for Wi-fi when it is clearly inadequate for the purpose.
