Anyone still using a flip phone?

well i have what is called a "pre-paid" account.

unlimited data, texting, calls, etc, for $35 each month, plus taxes, fee's, so about $38.00 monthly.

i have no use for any contract(s), or high dollar phones, gizmo's, doo-dads.....

"hello, you want milk and eggs"?

"ok"

"what, what do you mean you'll be 6 hours till you get hear, i have to get this tire changed, so i can get home and take my nap"....

thats all i need a phone for......

 

It's so cute when a driver calls going back to a flip style cell phone as "going back in time."

I remember when using a cordless home phone when they first came out and you had to extend the antenna before answering the call like R2D2 and the range was about 50 feet from the base.

 

how are you going to show all the businesses your vaccine passport
you're going to be forced to have one eventually

 

My Dad still has a flip phone and one of my drivers does as well.

I don’t have any social media either and have an iPhone 10. I just ignore all of the updates. I’m going to have to get a 13 soon though.

Good to hear someone is making a flip with 4g.

 

flip phone, I remember back in the early 90s my bag phone bill was constantly over 500 bucks a month. Now just about anyone can afford a Obama phone...

 

yep i have one best phone ever had it is army grade tough as nails but all it does is phone calls no text nothing for me just what i need thank you

 

I miss flip phones a lot. I miss the times before cell phones and home PC's much more. Until around 2005, all cell phones were analog signal instead of digital like today. The calls back then were clear and rarely had a call drop. Today you get dropped calls like crazy when you actually have a clear enough signal to speak with somebody.

 

My uncle still does. Doesn't know how to use a computer and can hardly put an address in the GPS

 

As for flip phones............I have been using flip phones for years.
I have "rabbit ears" TV.......I do pay for cable internet for my home computer. Here we
can still buy "internet only" cable...................saves quite a bit. I tried a smart phone but
I hated it...................battery had to be charged pretty much daily. The screen is to small............
my home computer internet is real coverage with a real screen and a real keyboard for less
than the smart phone cost.

I tried a tablet but it wasn't much better. Screen was still pretty small......keyboard was
better but still to small.............to expensive for not better than it was.

 

I plan on buying the new Samsung fold.
