I’d love if the old Symbian QWERTY phones made a comeback. I had a cheap Nokia X2-01 (https://m.gsmarena.com/nokia_x2_01-3610.php) running S40, and it did XMPP, E-mail pretty fine.

Just make those with a slightly more powerful/modern SoC and let me run Pidgin.

I came across the Unihertz Titan Pocket [1] yesterday which might interest you. Small, android QWERTY phone which looks pretty cool, depending on your use-case.

I had the unihertz atom for a while and it was a terrible device with poor software and support. You would think, given it’s based on android you could reflash with something useful but no, they don’t provide you the necessary drivers and stuff to do this.

Avoid these chancers.
