Bah, a smartphone doesn't mean you need to pay monthly fees. I do have a smartphone and I do pay monthly fees, but only for one phone. The other one doesn't have a valid sim card (it's my old phone). But it still works perfectly as MP3 player (or rather, audiobook player
)
My current phone (Lumia 950XL) is huge, but I still don't really like it for reading, as I find the width too small compared to the height. For reading I'd like at least 16:10, 4:3 would be best. 3:2 I've never tried...

Funny you should say that. I use my smartphone for everything, but I hate calling with it, so I never do that :P If I'd use the phone a lot as, you know, phone, I'd probably buy a simple Nokia mobile phone, not a smartphone.
And my old phone is mostly used as you'd use a Ipod Touch (at least, if I remember correctly, that's the one that looks like an Iphone, but isn't?) I like use it, as the screen gives me a lot of information and I can easily switch between numbers (or listening to music or listening to an audiobook).
