Wouldn't feed sounds to my hearing aids (bluetooth) even though settings showed paired an connected. If the Bluetooth devices weren't working I couldn't hear the phone even on speaker. Wasted 200 dollars on this phone.

Cheap Keypad Buttons

2 out of 5 rating

jack2045 . 1 year ago

The keypad buttons are cheaply made. I've owned this phone for about 6 months and the most frequently used keys on the keypad creak loudly and annoyingly when pressed. They also take quite a bit more effort to press than keypads on basic phones I've used in the past. I expect more from a premium basic phone that costs more than some smartphones.

Good enough phone when it doesn't randomly reboot itself

2 out of 5 rating

Bob27 . 1 year ago

Have had this phone for the better part of a year now. The phone is fine for what it is, a robust go anywhere flip phone. Calls are typically good on sound clarity and volume. Battery is great. Camera is what's to be expected. T9 is frustrating compared to others. The main issue as of late is that the phone randomly reboots when I'm in the middle of calls. Time to switch it up.

Message Vibrate and Quick Typing Issues

3 out of 5 rating

flipfoner923 . 1 year ago

Check Mark GraphicYes, I'd recommend this product.
Hi I wrote the below review and want to add three things after using the phone for a few weeks. 1, there is no vibrate notification option for incoming text messages. I'm befuddled that a phone with such otherwise advanced software would not have this most basic option. I mean am I missing something? 2, the phone has a weird bug where it struggles with quick typing. If I type two number quickly in the dialer, the second number will be typed twice. So if I type 12, what comes out is 122. If I type 123456789 quickly, what comes out is 12345567889. Thirdly, the exterior buttons are just too large and not stiff enough. I find it almost impossible to hold the phone while in a call and not be frequently pressing the volume buttons or the PTT button by accident. This can be solved by making them smaller, stiffer, and maybe more recessed into the phone. Other flips have implemented better designs for their exterior buttons. Don't get me wrong this is a good phone and I do recommend it. It has GREAT battery life, very solid construction, and the text message app is quite easy to work with, something which is lacking in some other contemporary flips (not to name any names). You can also connect bluetooth keyboards to these things. The problems with the text input that I detailed in my previous review can be avoided by side-loading TT9 from github. It's pretty easy to install with some light research. Also no native email app but apk's can be side-loaded. I do recommend this phone and commend Sonim for making it, but hope Sonim will fix these issues I have detailed in future OTA updates and future models. I have to dock off a star for no vibrate option for new text messages, and the "double number" quick-typing bug as I think these are pretty major.

Great Quality Flip Phone But Not Without Flaws

4 out of 5 rating

flipfoner923 . 2 years ago

Check Mark GraphicYes, I'd recommend this product.
Why no love for this phone in the review section? This is probably the best flip phone on the market right now, but it's not perfect. In short, it's a very solid phone, has great battery life (best in any flip phone I've ever had), large interior and exterior screens for a flip phone, large keypad, slick operating system, and not a bad camera. As for the cons, the phone is quite large and heavy, the keypad buttons are a little hard to depress while the exterior buttons are a little too easy to depress, the text input system is a little wonky, and it's missing an email app, which is puzzling. Changing the phone from sound alerts to vibrate to silent is a little different from other flip phones, you have to set different profiles and then switch to them through the homescreen or one of the exterior buttons. I wish you could switch the old fashioned way by simply using the exterior volume rockers to go from sound to vibrate to silent, I think it's much simpler but it's not a dealbreaker and I think one can get used to Sonim's sound profiles. I also wish you had more control over the zoom level of photos in the gallery app. The way it's set up you press the center ok button to zoom in all the way. I wish you could zoom in steps. The text input system, KT9, isn't the best. For example, it doesn't realize that the word "I" is used very frequently in English. When you press the 4 button It will type a "G" and force you to manually switch to the "I" – every time. It's pretty annoying. It's also quite difficult to type words with apostrophe's as it doesn't recognize a period as an apostrophe like other T9's do. For example, you should be able to type "you.re" and the T9 will auto type "you're". Holding backspace also deletes everything you wrote, which makes it too easy to lose everything you typed. Lastly, I wish this phone had a Voice to Text option, it clearly has voice commands so why can't that system be adapted to Voice to Text? I wish we could use voice commands from the exterior screen without having to open the flip. I also wish the home screen was more customizable. It doesn't let you create more home screens and modify them. All these aside this is probably the best flip phone on the market right now with fantastic battery life, large screens, and a large keypad, but I hope Sonim will consider these updates to make it even better!
