All phone functions work without a problem and navigation using either Google Maps or Osmand/Organic maps does, too.
I have an old LCD smartphone at home that I store another SIM card in - otherwise it sometimes gets used as a camera and alarm clock. But I don't use it as a phone nor do I do anything else on it.

One question about price.
The Green 6GB A9 phone price on the site of
The Chosen Store is listed as 460 euros. I read reviews when the phone was released and I believe hearing the initial sales price was around US$350, but I could be wrong.
Shipping to Western Europe is 75 euros.
Import duties to France: 20%, or 92 euros of the sales price.
Total price for the A9 shipped to France:
627 euros. Is that about right? the price seems steep for a small experimental e-ink phone.
