Purchased it two months ago to fight my addictions to passive consumption of media. It truly works wonders. The hardware itself discourages use for videos, which I've found are the main issue and largest time-consumer in my life. With the right setup it does wonders. However, one big downside is the battery life. It can drain quickly when using it like you would a normal smartphone. Definitely worth trying tho!

Best little phone out there. I now have 4 of these. 1 for the wife, myself, and a couple just in case they ever stop selling them. I won't bug everyone with all the uses I have for the PTT (walkie talkie) button here, but these are super durable, great phones, that do everything you need while keeping you from just being glued to them all the time. I've beat the daylights out of mine at work and it just keeps on. Can't recommend them enough. Especially for the price, you're nuts if you don't buy and try at least. Just return it if you don't like it for some reason. Thanks for another great video on my fav phone!! :)

This isn't a dumbphone, that looks like Android and you only use the touchscreen part completely avoiding the physical buttons. So you could have a phone that doesn't have parts that you don't use, has better performance, and doesn't have problems with things not fitting on screen even with default apps and all that for much cheaper price.

This defeats the whole purpose of having a dumb phone in 2025. If you have everything you normally have in an android phone, but with a worse screen, camera, keyboard experience, battery, then just get a normal phone and put a minimalist launcher on top or something. At least then you can actually use the apps that are useful. Also I imagine typing on that thing is a nightmare.

right? I mean i can see how actual dumb phones would run heavily modified versions of android just so some apps work, but this is just a smaller normal phone with a useless lower half. It would kinda be a dumb phone (to me) if it had no touch screen and an actual UI that was optimized for use with the rest of the phone.

It's interesting to see how Android (and app developers on Android) handles such a small screen. I think, I would probably turn the DPI down a little, but otherwise it works quite well. I might have to consider a phone like this one day if I decide to use it less. Do many apps play nicely with the directional buttons (i.e. not using the touchscreen?) I imagine it's quite hit or miss.
@DumbphonesUK19 күн бұрын
You'd imagine right, it's a little hit or miss. Flashscores, for example, as seen in the video, skips the odd match if I use the buttons, but I'd say it's about 70-80% hit.
