Reliable phone without all of the extras. I love the big numbers. I’m hard on things & this doesn’t feel very durable. Word prediction was better 20 years ago.

Worked fine on my Verizon account. Changed over in minutes. If you still have physical sim card. Un plug from world. Doee have internet and other wi capabilities. screen is small and typing very hard. Keyboard options to use numbers has predicted text . Turning off and going to old school would be easier. Never stays same style of texting . Even in same message. Had to go back to smart phone was purchased for camping trip that didn't want to risk $1000.00 phone. Still could get text and calls with now issue. There is a restock fee so it just sits on shelf and backup if I break my current phone between upgrades.

I wanted a simple phone. What I got was a time machine to 2004—with extra frustration. The Nokia 2789 looks cool and nostalgic, but using it felt like trying to text with oven mitts. The buttons were stiff, the menus were confusing, and just setting it up made me question all my life choices. Calls and texts technically work, but everything else felt like a puzzle with no instructions. Great if you want digital detox. Not so great if you want to keep your sanity.

Pros:
t's a decent "getaway from smart " phone. It has big buttons, eye comfort screen brightness, color.
Cons:
It claims to have gmaps and YouTube but they are not usable. So, you are forced to switch to real smart phone when you go for a drive and need maps or songs.
Flashlight gets turned on randomly and not easy to turn it off quickly.

Very basic and easy to use, just what my dad needed.

I would have rated this a 5 star rating but I think that it could have had a little more information included in the setup' it should show how much charge is in the battery, in numbers not a picture of a battery. That is really chinsey for a word that I can use here. That my biggest complaint, also this phone should charge thru my PC it doesn't. The phone is a very good phone and it does a good job for the price.

I use a cell phone very seldom, but when I need it, I like a small phone with few options on it. This is almost as small as a phone I had that was NOT a flip phone. But this does the job and fits in a very small cross over purse. I don't need all the gadgets, so I will just have to ignore them.

I love it. Just a few small software features that would be fantastic, but overall It's great. Got it to be a bare minimum phone, and it's what I was looking for.

So you want a phone that is... A PHIONE ? This is the perfect pocket phone, FM Radio, MP3 player, and on-line radio. It has bluetooth and WiFi too, as well as a real headphone jack, so you can stream your music to headphones or speakers, or wear wired headphones too.
Calls are clear and easy to hear. Texts work quickly. Unlocked 4G LTE email / web access too. GPS for walking or driving around town is included with google maps. The ONLY thing missing is HotSpot.
Data / Power connection is standard USB 3 port, so it works with all PCs and Laptops supporting USB.
Takes up to a 32 GB micro SD card, which is detected by the phone and it asks you if you want to use the card for storage (say yes!). Additional apps available from the Nokia online app store. This is the perfect phone for all your kids too. One extra outside button is configurable as a single press call for any contact, mom & dad , or emergency. Also includes a camera for quick snaps to send by text or email. This is the phone that will make you fall in love with Phones being PHONES again ! :-) Enjoy !

I refuse to buy any Chinese product and so had some difficulty locating my new Nokia phone made in Vietnam at Best Buy. because I am a total tech member, I was able to access help in determining exactly what I needed to learn. I am an old lady and technology, and I am not on speaking terms, so I am very grateful for the wonderful young man who assisted me.

Easy “out of the box” set up and performs exceptional well! Bought it for my spouse who refuses to use a smartphone, and she is completely happy with it.

I got this to disconnect from social media and reduce my footprint and wow it has been great. It still has maps which is a big plus, as well as predictive text.

Unlocked and put an AT&T SIM in at the desk and started making calls. User Manual available online - not comprehensive. Discovered Flashlight on the phone can be turned on and off by hitting the UP part of the ring when you're not in the middle of another activity.
