I love this simple phone. It’s at the opposite end of the spectrum from the iPhone.

Before it I had a much more expensive phone with lots more features, which I hardly ever used.

The good.
Because of its non-colour screen it uses very little power, so I only need to charge it about once every seven days. It has the best signal I’ve ever had from any cell phone, even better than phones ten times its price.

It’s very sturdy, and has been dropped many times with no visible scars or signs of problems.

Very simple to use as long as you read the instructions.

The bad.
One technical problem, which I and others with the same phone have noticed is that when your incoming message box gets full, you can’t send any more text messages, even if you clear some or all of the incoming box. You actually have to turn the phone off and back on again. To prevent this problem, just make sure you don’t let your incoming message box get full.

It only came in three color choices. The phone doesn’t fold, but that does help keep it sturdy.

It also can't take photos or videos.

Summary:
Cheap, sturdy, long battery time and a great signal.

It's suitable for those who don't want or need many functions.
