"Excellent if you only want the basics"
Pros: Durable, reliable, good battery life, lots of basic options
Cons: Few bells and whistles
Summary: This is my first flip phone. It is lightweight yet seems to be durable (it has survived 3 falls onto concrete from waist height in a month). It's user interface is easy to figure out, and it is possible to customize buttons to enable/disable certain one-touch features, such as text messaging. There are energy-saving settings that extend the life of the battery while maintaining functionality. Although the editor thought it was comfortable to hold, I actually find it to be a bit awkward to hold to my ear for long periods. It seems to transmit voice and sound reasonably well. The camera comes with a few photo-editing features that are fun to use, and it takes decent photos. In sum, if you don't need anything fancy but would like a serviceable phone, I would highly recommend this product--its few built-in "luxuries" are actually quite practical.
