Attracted by the card-sized mobile phone "NichePhone-S"-Keitai Watch

The future model "NichePhone-S" (official page) released on November 10, 2017 just the other day. It is a card-sized SIM-free mobile phone. Not a smartphone, but a mobile phone. I was attracted to Myo, so I made a pre-order.

Future model "NichePhone-S". It is almost the size of a card and weighs 38g. It is a SIM lock-free mobile phone with a size and mass that does not make you feel uncomfortable even if you put it in your shirt's chest pocket. The actual price is less than 11,000 yen. Available in black and white.

In this era, card-sized mobile phones are attacking. What's more, it's challenging to use a mobile phone for calling, not a smartphone. However, there are no such bold terminals in the Japanese market, and there are not enough exciting elements, so I am very attracted to such terminals and would like to welcome them.

However, as far as the specs are concerned, it's really just a mobile phone. Although it has the functionality of a mobile phone + α, it is a terminal with a completely different direction from the current smartphone, and it can be said that it is functionally similar to a mobile phone more than 20 years ago without the word "Sha-mail".

If I write clearly what I think calmly, if you want functionality equal to or higher than this "NichePhone-S", a super-discount smartphone, an out-of-the-box feature phone or a feature phone is "much more practical for many people" I think. Considering used terminals, I think that "NichePhone-S" as a communication terminal does not have high cost performance.

I mean, such a terminal, for example, Kianu Reeves or Tom Cruise, while the hideout was blown up and the equipment was lost and escaped, I took it out stylishly from the buckle of the belt or the heel of the shoe and contacted the headquarters, and by chance It's like a spy tool used when you connect the old mobile terminal you put in the device to the net by tethering and send a message to your friends. Even if you think "practicality is a little ...", if you are attracted to it, you should just buy it and have a good time.

I don't know if it's good or not, but I welcome terminals that play a part in the diversity of communication terminals and give us consumers a sense of excitement. After that, I would like to review the functions and usability of "NichePhone-S".
