Just a phone for my pay as you go plan. this is a good little inexpensive phone - basic, but that's what I wanted.
I prefer bar phones to any other kind (not sure why), and one of the first things I learned was to lock the keypad whenever I put it in my purse, in my pocket, or any other place where it would be possible for the phone to be accidentally turned on. As for the person whose wife's phone was dead, it probably was jostled in her purse and was inadvertently turned on. The battery life is, as the others have said, amazing.
It's small, light, and the keypad and screen really light up.you can actually see the screen in very bright sunlight. The keypad IS quite small, and this could be a problem for most men, but it's perfect for me. I've been using this phone for about three weeks, now, and it truly is a nice little phone.
The only negative is that it doesn't have speaker phone capability. It's a simple matter of pushing two keys to turn on the lock or to shut it off, and sure saves a lot of battery life. It does everything I want a phone to do.
The graphics on the web are really very good, although accessing the web is rather slow.
Based on reviews, we chose this phone. My husband forgot it was in his shirt pocket.
I'm not sure how it would work as an everyday phone, but for those who only need it occasionally I would highly recommend. The phone went through the washer and dryer and still works as well as ever.
We never use cell phones, but thought we needed one for a long road trip. And the phone really does handle abuse very well.
It will be there, charged and ready when you need it. With our last phone we were always irritated that the battery seemed to be dead every time we tried to use it.
Battery life is great.
The size is good. It is just a basic phone and is an effective phone for people who do not need a lot of features.
Now that he has moved and has his landline installed, I am giving it to a friend who has no cell phone, and cannot afford the price of a regular one. So. I needed a temporary phone for a friend in a retirement home until he got settled in his new place. This will be just right for her limited calls when she is on the road. two for the price of one. I charged it up and it ran for several days on its own. He would have preferred a larger key pad due to his poor eyesight, but he seemed to do okay with it, and it was simple enough for him to be able to use it to simply make or receive calls (I didn't get into the answering system with him).
