Flip Phone 4G LTE GSM Alcatel Go Flip Factory Unlocked BIG BUTTONS + External LCD Bluetooth WIFI Mp3 Camera Elderly A405DL

This phone is just what I needed.It is a rugged little phone to keep in a pocket when exercising,and a smart phone is too fragile and expensive to work with.Also, it is 4G/LTE, so it will be around long after 2G and 3G aregone.Sure, a flip-phone dates a person, but we are talking pragmatism here.

This phone is advertised as “4G LTE” and hence supposedly compatible with 5G networks – it is not and will not function with AT&T upgrades. Given the other negative comments this appears to be an orchestrated rip-off to which Amazon may be complicit – suggest you contact the office of your Attorney General.

Pros, big buttons, 4g and WiFi calling access,simple flip phone for seniors not techno savvy, great talk text coverage in my area.Cons, would be nice to have designated memory buttons for seniors. No manual was included with the box, so took some playing around to do set up.Summary, purchased for my 80 year old mom for emergency use. Phones bandwidth work great in her area where she gets 4g access. Purchased a different flip phone earlier with better senior phone features but the bandwidth was not sufficient and service access was spotty. This Alcatel works great on Tmobile. I would purchase again and or recommend, but it would be nice to have some senior non techie users features added to it.

Definitely not unlocked. This phone is still locked to T mobile. Though we used a T-Mobile prepaid cArd assuming it’ll work.

Working fine for my Grandma, she is 93 just need calling and don't know how to use smart phone. I use for lyca service, just put it in.

Despite its claim of being unlocked and fully compatible with Verizon’s network, this phone is NOT compatible with Verizon. I activated my Verizon account and obtained a verified Verizon SIM card that worked perfectly on other unlocked phones, then discovered that this phone will not work on the Verizon network. Verizon tech support confirmed this as they were directing my troubleshooting efforts.

I got a new flip phone because my old one was having battery issues, only lasting 4 to 5 days.I had to get a new sim from my provider and have it activated, much effort and hours with tech support etc. Now my new phone won't hold a charge for 2 days POS. shopping for another phone, but not this brand, way to much work to get a simple phone...

Easy to handle and access to answer calls.
