Excellent flip phone, very easy to use and works great

I bought this Nokia 2780 flip phone to replace the Alcatel flip phone that I received through V*****n and that would drop my calls 90% of the time. I also bought it so that I could switch carriers (instead of $40+ per month for unlimited minutes/text [no data] through V*****n, I now pay less than $10 per month). This Nokia 2780 flip phone is excellent and very easy and intuitive to use. After clicking on the menu and thoroughly exploring all of its features, I have nothing negative to say about it and would highly recommend it. Based on my previous experience with flip phones, I did not need to read a user guide in order to figure out how to use it. However, if you happen to have specific questions, information can be readily found online. In sum, it is a basic phone that serves the purpose and is well suited for non-fussy tech users like myself who tend to favor the KISS principle.

Cellphone is great for basic use! Easy to set up, has wifi option and lightweight. Buttons are somewhat big, easy to text. Recommend it for anyone who just needs it for calls/texts.

Not bad. Big enough buttons. Sturdy. Widh there were other colors as well.

Great choice for phone addicts like myself. This thing works great. It has everything I need to feel safe (i.e. google maps, which works just poorly enough that I'm incentivized to know my way around my city, but just well enough that I'm safe). If you're thinking about switching to a flip phone, do it. Texting on this is genuinely fun, and calling is a blast. If you've never slammed a phone shut to hang up a call you are missing out on one of the life's biggest joys. Also if you are worried about rideshare apps: most major rideshares have a phone number you can call to book a rideshare over the phone. Easy peasy. The rideshare calling service is marketed to seniors, much like this phone. But as a youngin I can tell you that you don't need to have silver hair to enjoy a golden life. Oh also one last thing -- camera quality is actually amazing!! It's the screen that's low quality. Send your photos to your computer and you will see on a high-resolution screen the photos are awesome. With just enough lofi charm to look super cool. Lofi digital photos are gonna be the next big thing, mark my words

The Nokia 2780 is a good choice for seniors. I prefer it to Jitterbug mainly because I can block nuisance numbers. Also, if the person is able to use a few smartphone features like contacts, email, and maps, they can do so. The numbers on the keypad are large enough to see. The "answer and hang up" choice can be configured to open and close or via the keypad.

I got this phone for my mom it works great the only thing is the volume buttons are in the wrong position

Does exactly what you need it to do. Internet is mediocre, navigation is frustrating, youtube works... If you want a cheap dumb phone to text, call, and get around, it's fine! Friends tell me audio quality on calls is impressive for a flip phone.

I bought this phone to replace my home land line service. I chose the Nokia brand because I wanted a flip phone that would last and have great battery life, both things Nokia has been known for. I’ve been using it for almost a year now and it has worked perfectly for my needs. The battery life is outstanding and even when almost empty, the phone recharges very quickly. It wasn’t very difficult to figure out how to use and setting it up was pretty straightforward. If you’re looking for a basic, simple flip phone with decent features, you can’t beat this Nokia, especially for its price point.

Good basic flip phone with some modern features. Expandable storage. Works with SIM if choice. Reasons for 4/5 Stars: Price is a little higher than I'd expect for a fairly basic phone. It also takes time to do things with the phone number keyboard. Takes a while to load upon powering up. Battery life is acceptable but not impressive. SIM card installation tricky and can appear not to work or be recognized. I had it working, then it stopped. After some persistence, I realized that there's a trick to locking the brackets for SIM and TF cards. Once I properly locked them, it worked fine. I've read many reviews of it not recognizing SIM cards, which work fine in other phones such as the one from Mint Mobile. This was the reason we had trouble. No problem now. I found an inexpensive case for it, which is great. I appreciate the flip phone design which eliminates accidental calls or actions without the need for a password or pin. Overall, I'd recommend this pone for anyone who does not want or need a full Smart Phone, but would like wifi access. It's also good as a 2nd phone when a full smartphone is not necessary and one that won't break the bank if lost or broken. Examples might be younger kids, older adults, or disabled individuals who might have a need for regular access to phone or communication; activities like camping, hiking, or biking, etc.

The phone is everything I expected it to be. There were no problems starting it up with my carrier keeping my old number. It is a bit different from my old phone and I am still learning how best to use it.

The best flip flop phone there is. It has everything a smart phone could have without being one. I am super happy with it I replaced with my I phone and I honestly love all the features it brings an it’s so practical to use. Nokia hasn’t changed they still provide 5 star phones all around. I thank the staff and Best Buy for always helping me pick my best options there always know exactly what I’m looking for. I recommend this phone for everybody from young people to older adkutls it’s magnificent!!!!

Bought this bad boy 2 weeks ago, best decision I ever made leaving my iPhone behind. Best Buy was very helpful when buying the phone. The phone itself is a tank very durable and the battery last for days.

The calling works great, typing the letters can be a hassle. The phone is a little light and seems like it can break easily, but it is on the cheaper side. Scrolling through contacts is a bit slow. Also it takes about 2-3 seconds for messages to load. Keys are big, but flat so can be hard to type at types. The phone does what I need it to. GPS is not automatically updated after each step on the route, you need to manually press the button to go to the next step. With moderate use it holds its charge for about 2-3 days.

Great low tech phone! It functions great and will do what you neesd it to do. The two issues I had with it were getting group text messages and the email app always signing me out. Would recommend for the price.

Works well, fairly good camera for a flip phone. Will recomend.

Technologically regressing, I think this phone is great! It does exactly what I need it to do, I can call text, write notes, access google maps, and look up info on google. It has all the same qualities as a smart phone, without the addicting desire to be on my phone for hours on end. it's also a tough little phone, this is my second Nokia flip phone, the only reason I am replacing it, is because I washed my first phone. It still works except for the speaker when I call out. Yes, a five-star review on this phone is warranted.

For a simple phone that makes calls, does SMS/MMS and group messages. This phone works perfectly. It's not a smart phone, so don't expect smart phone features. That being said, using Mint Mobile works great. Has VoLTE and VoWifi with Mint Mobile (T-Mobile MVNO). Purchased to use as a reliable long lasting business phone. It has a camera, but don't expect great pictures. It has email, maps, weather, and makes crystal clear calls. It checks all my boxes.

Light weight and easy to use. The camera takes great pictures, and the battery last a long time. Glad I got it.

My mom needed a simple phone for long-distance calls after her 3G one was obsolete. After a frustrating search, we found this Nokia. It's wonderful! Easy to set up, incredibly easy for her to contact the frequently called numbers. It is easy to read, and feels sturdy.
