I like that phone. I have a fairly similar samsung phone that I bought in 2011. It has a querty keyboard that slides out like yours. I'm currently typing this on a 2013 samsung tablet with a touch screen keyboard. The physical is better for typing accuracy, but that is all it is better for. The touch screen keyboard allows a thinner object with a larger screen. I pay $17mo for phone service on the old phone, and make other calls and texts for free using an app on this tablet. My bottom line, I need good hardware and once I have it, I hold onto it until I have extracted all its value. This tablet is amazing for work, for pleasure, for utility.
Don't make a case. Tell how much cash you are not spending on bigger service plans and new phones... move to a pay as you go plan without a contract... that'll really save cash!
