    There’s still a surprising amount of devices made by HMD (who own Nokia’s consumer phone brand, so you’ll sometimes see them as Nokias) that run Series 30+ (think old Nokia software with some very slight modern enhancements) but have 4G hardware to play ball on modern networks.

      That’s a good point. Although living in the now, what did old Series 40 or Series 60 do behind the scenes? Probably not much because the extra power to mine user data wasn’t there yet. Also HMD could have made the “+” telemetry. Not to diss it though. I’d much rather risk their software than any other right now.
