S22 Smart Flip Phone (16GB) 2.8" Touchscreen Rugged Cell Phone Android 11, IP68 Water Resistant, 4G LTE GSM Single Nano Slot, Compatible with T-Mobile, AT&T (Black)

If you have a habit of leaving your phone in the goat house, wish to charm the older folk, or want another device to play your favorite 2006 gba game Mother 3 this gorgeous brick is for you. Yes, this cockin' peice of equipment truly has it all. I lost my last phone in the chaos of treating my dear nubian goat 'Sweetie' for scours, not sure wether i left it outside or it fell into a pile of the liquds that were pouring from her rear. But either way it was gone, and honestly wouldn't have lasted much longer either way, ive never had my phones stay alive on me more than a year. But this gorgeous thing is so rugged and heavy that it makes my hardened toll hands look petite. I could use the screen to stir the milk into my piping hot cup of Yorkshire tea, while video calling my good buddy many miles away in England, and the thing would find it enriching. Every old person thats seen it so far has fallen in love and wished it to be their own. and whipping it out in a crowd of pretentious people who brag about their new apple ipod225egad+ is truly satisfying. They can laugh at it if they wish, but they will never know the joy of simple joy of sitting outside in the grass for hours and thinking of things that make you happy. All they know is scrolling that certain horrid app at the tiniest trickle of boredom and using ai to write their essays, further destroying their ability to think and use their brains. I was a bit worried about the complications of getting service to it and wether it was truly unlocked because it seemed some people had troubles with it, but I was able to do it easily without hassle. The programmable button on the side is immensely handy, i set it to turn on my flashlight which speaking of is very bright. The camera and microphone quality really isn't half bad, actually better than my previous phone, ill attach a few photos taken with it. You cant do professional photography with it but it does its job. I did see a few complaning about short battery life but I haven't been bothered by that at all yet. It might drain quickly if your spending hours on it scrolling, but if thats what your doing with it, its not really the phone for you, It lasts me multiple days with light use. And it can emulate Mother 3!!! And you can use the physical buttons as the controller instead of having crap ones on the screen!?! This phone is truly a work of art. it might not be for everyone but it was exactly what I needed in a phone, I highly recommend it. Edit: after a good run of 4 months I have already very tragically lost my gorgeous beloved phone, it did not break, and I guarantee it is still functioning wherever it is. I simply accidentally dropped it in the woods somewhere while taking my previously mentioned Sweetie for a walk, but It served me incredibly well in that time, when I someday get another phone, it will be for sure one of these. After my time with it I could never use another. It was nice having people have the ability to call me but for now it might be best to go back to my phoneless ways, until we meet again cat s22 my love.

The best phone I have had. I recommend downloading something like RethinkDNS to block the bloatware on the device. It works best de-googled. The battery is weak, but it's also cheap, so you can buy more than one. They make a battery charger for it too, that you can get on eBay. This phone is no longer receiving updates, so it will be up to you to keep your phone secure. Some kind of antivirus, and other security measures will be needed(your choice, but I recommend one that scans your files.) Also, be aware that some antivirus apps track you heavily. Exodus privacy will tell you the amount of trackers(the aurora store has this built in). Btw, I have tried LineageOS 18 and 20 on this phone. I got everything to work except incoming calls :/ so I wiped the phone and reinstalled the original OS. The phone is still very nice with the original OS after blocking the bloatware.

This phone had many problems which caused me to write a negative review. Keep in mind that a lot of my problems described could be that the phone uses android 11, which has been out of life since 2024. However I believe if a phone is still purchasable brand new then it should be expected to work. A large hardware issue for me is that as soon as I started to use the phone the 3,6, and 9 t9 buttons would get double clicked when I would press the key once. Sometimes even 3 clicks for every single press. This makes it almost impossible to use the physical buttons on the phone for typing. My phone was also not able to pick up group message texts. For context I switched from a IPhone Xs to this flip phone. I tried changing the RCS and MMS settings on the phone. I also tried unsubscribing from IMessage on my Iphone. Lastly I tried to recreate new group chats under my google account which also failed to pick up any messages from users in the group chats I created. A software/ hardware issue I ran into was with the speaker. sometimes during the day the audio would stop working on the phone, despite changing multiple volume options. The only way to fix this was for me to restart the phone. On average I was restarting my phone at least 3 times a day to deal with the speakers giving out. I intentionally bought this phone so I wouldn't spend so much time on it. I know downgrading from a IPhone to a flip phone would be a difficult transition however I had so many problems with basic phone functionalities that I need to return this.

This is the one! I live in Canada (obvs) and it has been increasingly hard to find a reliable "dumb phone". I have defaulted mainly to the ones they sell at walmart/best buy (acetel is usually the brand) and they are TERRIBLE. They are not smart or predictive at all and though I had to text with them they made life so much harder. I also tried Punkd and was very disappointed with the quality and it was also retired I'm very committed to using a dumb phone so I will use even if the quality is terrible or they are falling apart but I just ordered this one and it is my holy grail so far for dumb phones. You can use it without connecting to google (aka giving up all your data) and you can still use WIFI and speech to text. It is well designed and comes across that whoever built it actually cared about the quality. It is easy to use and has some unexpected features that are helpful. Also a front and back camera that are pretty decent quality. I am very impressed. If you're not sure where to put your money I highly recommend this one

I got this phone because Fizz is shutting down 3G on their network and I needed a voLTE compatible phone in order to continue to make and receive calls. I researched the Internet and found something called pixel ims that once installed, would activate voLTE on my new phone but no go. So I had to return this phone and get a Samsung S21 from Fizz. Not the phone I wanted, I wanted the S22 and honestly, it breaks my heart to have to return it. I am giving it a 4 star and not 5 only because of the compatibility issue and because CAT no longer produces phones, there is no support for it at all but I would have kept it if it worked on my carrier.

Update: Contacted the company about battery issues. They answered the same day and offered a solution of a replacement battery. That was on the 10th of Feb, it is now the 1st of March, and I'm still waiting. Canada Post doesn't provide tracking numbers for small in country deliveries. I've only got responses 2 maybe 3 times, the initial contact. It should be here by Monday at the latest. We'll have to wait an see. I bought it for my Father, thinking about durability bc he has balance issues. Didn't consider the size of the screen, buttons yes, but he might have more balance issues now from swinting.

This phone is fantastic, I've been using it for three weeks now after switching from my iPhone 12 Pro Max to help detox from social media. I love that is still runs android 11 with a small touch screen so I can download my essential apps like banking, music, and google calendar while still having flip phone functions such as the option for T9 texting and answering/ending calls with a flip. It is waterproof, sturdy, and drop proof so I don't have to worry when taking it on hikes or paddleboarding. The battery life lasts a couple days which is great. Call quality is also great with no complaints from friends or family. Also came unlocked so all I needed to do was put my sim card in and it worked! For the price, this is a great purchase that should last a long time.

One of the only options in the semi-dumb phone market. Fills a niche where you get smart phone functionality on a simple flip phone. We tried a basic Nokia brick phone but its almost impossible to do life without some basic apps like WhatsApp or messenger. This phone allows for that. My 14 year old son researched and decided on this phone after coming to the conclusion that traditional smart phones are too distracting. He also loves the nostalgia feel of the keyboard....kids these days seem to love the 80s-90s tech lol. He installed the t11 keyboard app and uses the physical keys only for typing despite there being a touchscreen. Battery life is awesome, gets up to 3 days out of it. Can't best this unit for the price and functionality. It's been fun seeing my kid mesmerized by it....while I think it looks completely awkward and annoying. Most will want to stick with their traditional smartphone, but this unit definitely fills a niche and it does it well. Would be nice if they sold a charging dock for it to use the charging pins on the back.
