Feature phone
Mobile phone that is not a smartphone / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A feature phone (also spelled featurephone), or brick phone[1], is a type or class of mobile phone that retains the form factor of earlier generations of mobile telephones, typically with press-button based inputs and a small non-touch display. They tend to use an embedded operating system with a small and simple graphical user interface, unlike large and complex mobile operating systems such as Android from Google or iOS from Apple.

The functions of feature phones are limited compared to smartphones, which integrate the phone with an Internet communications device; following the rise of smartphones, the feature phone has sometimes been referred to by the retronym dumbphone.[2] However, some feature phones can provide functions found in smartphones, including Internet capabilities, apps and mobile games.
