Just look how far we've come...
Picture it. South Africa, circa 1999. You can't wait to get home, not to do homework or anything - let's get real, how much of that did you actually do? No, you just couldn't wait to get your hands on their classic Nokia cellphone so that you could spend the afternoon beating your previous score on Snake.
Fast forward a few years later and you had your very own brick of a phone with which to play games, try out polyphonic ringtones and send SMSs JUST long enough to not use up all your airtime and start sending Please Call Me's.
These days, smartphones are the name of the game, and we don't even need to sing their praises, goodness knows you can probably get them to do that themselves. From scrolling through social media to snapping millions of selfies, if it ain't a smartphone like our main deal, we ain't interested. We do miss playing Snake, though.
