Bottom line, it's what works for you.  To me, a smartphone makes more sense.  It's a PDA, phone, music storage, game, access to the internet, etc.  But if someone prefers just a PDA, that's their call.

Anymore they are. Now they have iPhones. I haven't seen a pda since 2007

Some people are still using them, so they must not yet be useless.

David S · Answer

If they were still useful, people would still use them. All of the functionality of PDAs were assumed and surpassed by cell phones.

Very much so. They are very horrible devices in 2019, even an old smartphone or ipad is better.

Bill · Answer

Where  can you find a pda in 2019? (Personal  digital assistant, not public  display  of  affection) You  can  buy a cheap  prepaid  smartphone  and  not  renew the  service, but  that wouldn't be better  than a smartphone, except  maybe  in  battery  life.
