no. i don't think so. it is useless without appropriate infrastructure.
4G phone useless because 10 years back there was no 4G. wifi is
useless, because of the same reasons... i may  continue.

Take a modern computer 100 years back.. and who will want it? You even
won't find a right socket for plugging it into electric network (if
you will be lucky and be near one :)
