Nokia 6300
Simple, with quality and good price. Great for calls and basic apps. Nokia is an icon of cell phones.

basic but does the job
does the job. i wanted a "dumb" phone as an emergency back-up. i like that it has a micro sd slot (though it only supports up to 32 gb if i recall correctly). the headphones make for poor call quality, but the phone has better reception than my main phone in spots (admittedly, not sure if it's a carrier issue). i like that it has a second sim card slot, as i am hoping to be able to visit family overseas (i wouldn't have to remove my current sim card, just pop in the temporary one in the second slot). decent phone if you don't need access to apps that are only available on, say, google's app store, or many other frills.

Perfect for our middle schooler
This phone was perfect for our needs. Our daughter was starting middle school. We didn't want to spend hundreds of dollars on a smart phone. So we initially tried a smart watch. Couldn't get the Apple Watch to work with our ATT plan. We tried Angel Watch for a few months, but that was a disaster. Unusable, bulky, and stopped charging after a few months. So we tried this phone and it's been perfect for us. Unlike the watch, this is actually good for phone calls, as you'd expect. So it's much easier for us to call and text her and vice versa. While it has internet connectivity like a smartphone, the beauty of this phone is that the user interface (specifically, the lack of a physical or virtual keyboard) makes it so that she's not going to spend hours glued to her phone. In an emergency, she can use the Web, but it's not something that she'd do just for fun. We took Facebook off, but kept Whatsapp on the phone. Camera is not great, but that's not what we bought it for. Highly recommend for other parents who want to get their kids a phone, but don't want to get them an expensive smartphone that they'll lose, destroy, or get addicted to.

Great deal for a simple phone
I bought this for some family members living in a 3rd World Country that really just needed a phone to make basic calls and be durable. This hits all those notes, it's a good deal and it's pretty solid feeling and the battery lasts for a very long time. It also has Whatsapp which is great as these type of phones that aren't smartphones usually don't have apps like Whatsapp. It's a little confusing to use initially, but if you've ever used a Bar of Flip Phone before you should be able to catch on quickly. Overall if you're looking for a new Unlocked phone for below $80, it's really hard to beat a deal like this.

Nokia 6300 4G Review
Overall, I'm very pleased with the Nokia 6300 4G. I was looking for a phone with some of the features of a smart phone, without the expense. I tend to be less than gentle and didn't want to invest in a phone I would need to baby. My only complaint, and it's a minor one, is that the keys are a bit small for my large hands and fingers. That said, it's a vast improvement over my old LG flip phone.
