Coming from a flip phone with only talk and text, this thing is a fantastic way for me to keep the dumb phone philosophy and be able to use smart apps again. Just keep in mind that out of the box the thing is bloated to the brim with google spyware and is a slow, unresponsive battery pig. It took me hours to disable these apps and replace them with functioning open source apps from F-droid.
Now it's just as responsive as my wife's iPhone and the battery lasts longer than hers now too, around 2-3 days with moderate usage for me. Some apps and webpages aren't properly developed for such a small screen though and can get cut off, but I can usually find a way around it if needed. Typing anything on the phone either using T9 typing or the onscreen keyboard is also perfectly inconvenient and uncomfortable enough that you really won't want to use it for media consumption, but everything does function properly and you can use smart apps when you really need them. Also since it runs android you can also use tools like universal android debloater to hard disable any app you want such as the browser or all the uninstallable google apps like YouTube. However I haven't found this to be necessary for me so far and I do want to be able to use these apps if I need them on the go.
Other pros: It has a removable battery, so I bought a few extras to do battery swaps, so "charging" takes about a minute with this setup. Another small bonus is that I have better posture using the phone due to the positioning of the screen. Also, can we talk about the price? I'm pretty sure this phone MSRPed for around $300, but it seems like they are just trying to get rid of them now with these too good to be true prices.
Modern day smartphones seem to be designed in every aspect to control the user rather than the other way around, big screens and a user experience that is way too easy and seamless. This phone allows me to use smart apps while also regaining the control these devices have taken from me by making the user experience clunky and painful enough that I want to spend as little time on this device as possible.

I have about 3 apps total on the phone: banking app, WhatsApp, gmail & the pre loaded apps. No notifications on for the apps beside gmail &call & text. Love the phone and got it so that it can have WhatsApp and call my mom. Just needed something simple and to be able to get directions or emails if it’s absolutely important for work. It’s not as heavy as I remember and you get use to the size. The battery seems to be draining somewhat easily. I’ll keep an eye on that but I love the phone it was in mint condition and I’m able to use it with mint mobile since it’s T-Mobile locked. It’s a great phone if you don’t want or need a smartphone but also need a few apps and can’t completely switch to a basic phone with just call and text.
