Good for privacy

HJRT . 14 days ago

I prefer a flip phone for the privacy it gives over that not afforded by flat cell phone. The Flip3 is slightly larger and a bit heavier than the one I replaced, however it is still easy to use and conveniently small enough to slip into the zippered pocket of my coat. Quality seems good (I have had it for only 2 weeks.) and function keys are conveniently and intuitively located.

Yvalax . 19 days ago

Overall the phone is working well. We purchased this phone for our 12 year old as a way for them to be able to communicate with us without giving them access to the internet and games etc It is advertised as voice and text only. These functions are working well. However - it appears it also has YouTube videos which is NOT what we wanted to give our kid access to and also not advertised. We were not able to see all these features as we weren’t able to open the box / activate the phone prior to purchase. We would not purchase knowing this.

Great flip phone

Pegaleg . 1 month ago

Yes, I'd recommend this product.

My husband likes this flip phone much better than the last one he bought 3 yrs ago. He likes the large screen that displays the time on the front and he likes the large numbers and letters on the front. It’s also a little larger than the last one!
