and it says that it is the world's smallest phone btw. im from philippines

The Phone named as MODU and it is developed by Israelites (people from israel) and Guinnese Book of record
awarded this phone as the world's smallest phone well i know i am late to share this one and maybe
many of you know about this. It is also the lightest in weight
according to the developer the specs of this new phone is

an internal memory of 2GB with music player and loads of stuff XD
it only weighs 1.41 oz or 40.1 grams (how light)
and the size is 72×37x7.8 mm. wow (really small)
the price is between US$100 – US$125 so its not cheap even its small XD

Wow that thing is tiny. I don't think that that would even reach from your mouth to your ear. I would end up leaving something that tiny in my pocket to get destroyed in the wash. My Trac Phone has gone through the was twice and still works perfectly. I don't think I would ever by a phone that small.

aha that phone sure is cute and i don't know if you hit the keypad

Although I understand the manufacturers / designer's purpose is to create a minimalist and compact mobile phone, such a small mobile phone would simply not be practical for everyday consumer usage. Besides not having a full keypad (physical or touch), it is heavily limited in function, especially in a digital phone where people actively use smartphone functions to access and browse the Internet. From my point of view, this phone is more useful as an emergency phone for children with one-click access to an emergency contact e.g. parents or family friends.

Yes I agree with you that this phone is better and most useful for kids since it doesnt have that much keyboard for more features
a child can use this in case of emergencies practically in school example in parent meetings, accidents, and more other emergencies
to call their parents in just one easy click, and the best thing is your child won't get confuse of using it since he will click only
one button

Yea, there is a fine line between small and efficient and just too small. If I am going to spend over a hundred dollars on a cell I at least want a full keyboard. Can you imagine that thing having a full keyboard? Yikes that would be pretty ridiculous. Why is it so costly? Because its small? Or is there another feature?

its costly because it is popular from being small and light and remember it has a record on guinese XD so bad aha
maybe it has some features and you know people are collectives, they want to collect so many things but they
won't use it its for the sake of collection . Imagining that this one will get a full keyboard/keypad like in a real size Mobile
Phone I don't think it will fit into it and if it is XD wow so small keypads maybe you will use a thin stick to hit it

wow that thing is puny! I would probably end up cracking it in half, because it is so light weight, and small. It is nice that phones are getting smaller, but at a certain point, they get too small. Reminds me of skit I saw on MadTV....

@evil technologies are getting smaller every single day I wonder why people do that thing? well maybe because they
want to save more space? and small is cool XD well too small is bad for me because its hard to use.. I remember a news

lol, yeah. Things getting smaller, like cell phones, is nice. But it reaches a point where it is *TOO* small. You would not want to one day have a cell phone so small you need a toothpick to push the buttons, or a book so small, you need a magnifying glass to read it.
