I bought this phone when my iPhone died. It arrived promptly, in new and unlocked fashion. I love the idea of a smartphone, but I also just like having a phone that works. With this one, I can easily make calls and send text messages. I can get away with charging one time per week. I can always hear the ringer, as well as the caller at the other end.PROS:- no camera, video, web, or email; just a phone with SMS capability- battery lasts at least a week- ringer and silent alert are highly effective- very smallCONS:- display difficult to read in sunlight
