More Tech Features than Expected

Katherine . 1 month ago

I am a little disappointed in how complex it actually is to use the phone. When I saw it, I thought about older phones that look like this. I am sure if I were more tech savvy, it would be the phone I would use all the time. This one is going to take time to learn how to really take advantage of not only the design but all that it offers.

You Get What You Pay For

LesG . 7 months ago

When Verizon dumped 3G and forced me into buying a 4G phone, I opted to go with this piece of junk because of the price. Wow. Big mistake. If you want to send a text longer than one sentence, you better pack a lunch. You have to toggle back and forth even if you want to end a sentence with a period. The battery life is terrible. Ten minutes after a charge you lose 20% of the battery life. The side buttons are located in such a way that the volume is turned down and you don't even know it. Good luck with the voicemail. Many times there is NO notice at all that you have voicemail. On some occasions it takes a day or more for the phone to even store the message. Unless you are either dirt poor, or stupid (like I was), do not buy, lease, rent, or steal this phone.

potential fire hazard

TechDude . 8 months ago

I had gotten this phone 3 years ago as a birthday present because It was supposed to be for emergency calls only. I don't use it much but even on the first day, the battery really sucks. Then, recently I needed to call my mom but the phone kept boot looping over and over again with the back light and screen flickering, so I opened the phone and looked at the battery and it falls out when usually it's sits in flush and hard to get out. the battery is Swollen and puffy where it now wont read the sim when it is on (when it is plugged in it doesn't boot loop), so now I have a useless phone that has a garbage camera and the only thing I liked about it was the ring tones, they sounded nice, but you can get that witch any phone from verizon, please don't buy this phone, it's small, difficult to use (info for seniors buying this) and it doesn't even record videos. (also for seniors, if your phone seems puffy, get a new battery immediately, that is a fire hazard if popped and could put toxic fumes in your home).

Don’t buy

TMoo . 10 months ago

Too difficult for seniors. Ring volume isn’t very loud/can’t hardly hear other person. Wouldn’t recommend

Flipped OUT . 10 months ago

I would give zero stars if allowable. This Phone takes the technology back to the stone age. It's worse than anything I've ever had. Basic functionality is poor. Reception is lousy at home, where my work iPHone does fine (also VErizon). Saving contacts is laborius. It's like the software people had never used a phone before writing code for this. Buttons often don't make contact when dialing or typing a text.

There is nothing simple about this phone. Battery life sucks also.

hairy . 11 months ago

The only good feature this phone has is that you will not have to worry about anyone stealing it from you. Most likely, if you do lay it down somewhere, whoever finds it will go out of their way to track you down and give this phone back to you.

Do not get this phone!

Vicky . 1 year ago

Difficult to navigate. Battery dies with no warning. Texts hard to figure out. If I could give it a negative number, I would.

Don’t get it

Paula M . 1 year ago

Difficult to navigate, battery doesn’t say long.
