I seem to be really hard on mobile phone buttons, as three of my last six phones had to be "retired" due to button failure.
Two of the three that failed were within the 1-year warranty period, and I got my money back.
So I'm looking for an inexpensive (less than $300, preferably less that $200) mobile phone with tap-to-wake (or double-tap-to-wake), so I don't have to use the physical buttons, other than to turn power on or off. It's really hard to search for such phones, tap-to-wake doesn't ever seem to be listed in the feature list on webpages selling phones.
Just to head off other ideas, I've tried a few apps that claimed to enable tapping, or used the proximity sensor to wake, and they don't work. It appears Android "go edition" either puts all such apps to sleep when the screen turns off, or powers down the sensors.
I'm hoping that other OzBargainers have recently bought such a phone, and can tell me the make and model.
Two limitations - I don't want a phone that folds in any way, and it must be Android with minimum 4-inch screen size.
I don't need a phone with lots of memory, 1GB or 2GB RAM is fine. I've never had a phone with more memory than that!
Thanks!
Doesn't every android have tap to wake ( I know Samsungs do at least)
