Obviously, it depends on how fast and what task.

  • Internet browsing
  • LED torch/flashlight
  • Watching video (depends on selected quality)
  • Stand-by
  • Always-on display
  • Writing text
  • Music playback
  • Music playback over headphones or bluetooth
  • etc.

I often asked myself: How long could a phone do these tasks with the power from one second (or 10s or 1m or 5m) of fast charging?

I see.

Does YouTube work on the device? (very unlikely, I guess.)

Well, I spent an hour and a half over lunch trying to get it to talk to the office wifi, because I've nothing but ethernet at home and the phone doesn't have a port for that. Ultimately, no luck; which means that either it doesn't speak modern routerish or there's some other problem that I have no idea how to debug because it's a phone - there doesn't seem to be a console and all the setting UIs are braindead.

So... uh... probably not, I guess?

Hrm . . .
But thanks for testing.

It's still good that a phone that's over 10 years old still functions to some extent.
