John's Phone. Business - Black. The World's Simplest Mobile Phone

Great phone for someone that just wants a phone to talk on. It is clearer than my iphone. We purchased this phone for my son who is handicap. He needed something easy to use and this was perfect.

The phone works fine. But it will soon be obsolete 👎🏻Received a message that AT&T will no longer support the phone after December.

A phone that does nothing but make phone calls. This is exactly what I've been looking for. No more expensive data plans. No more distracting text messages. Simplicity! The over all design is elegantly simple and a real conversation starter amongst the iphone crowd.I would give the phone a 5 star rating, but the side buttons are somewhat poorly designed. There are two three position switches that are very stiff. You can not slide they from one extreme to the other without first stopping at the middle position for a few seconds. Because of the stiffness of the switches, this is difficult to do. I expect that these switches will become less stiff with more use.

This is a nice, simple phone. It is NOT worth the price charged. It is apparently so simple that the buttons do not always work, even when one follows the manual. I am not sure if this is due to the toy parts that they used for the slider switches and the volume control, or if it is a problem with the internal electronics or firmware. Either way, this phone is perhaps good enough to throw into the back of your car and forget about until you need help at an accident scene, but it isn't good enough to carry every day. Fix the issues with the manual controls and maybe this phone will be worth what they're asking.

I bought this to give to my teenager when they lose their phones when in trouble. This way I can still get hold of them and they can call me when necessary but texting and social media sites are not accessible from it. It is working great.

I use mine overseas at moment. The no texting is kinda a downer mainly since people who may send you a message wouldn't know you didn't get it unless you tell them. Which can be a hassle. Is wierd since when I check balance it sends a message showing the account balance. So it is capable if receiving messages. Also my off switch doesn't work. Cheaply made in China.

This is truly a one of a kind phone. And it does everything it says it does. I was surprised to discover it does receive text messages you just can't send them. The seller (CBS) wasn't sure if it would work on the AT&T network but my prepaid AT&T SIM card worked fine. I got a "SIM card registration error" with my T-mobile SIM card however. This phone is very unique and simple to use and it will turn heads. I'm a happy customer.

I don't understand all the negative reviews. This phone is great for those who want to "unplug", and get back to a more simple and distraction free lifestyle. True, it is a bit pricey for what you get in functionality, but there's not a big market for people wanting to go low-tech. I think the designers did a great job on this phone. There is definitely room for some small improvements, but overall; with the nostalgic design, feel and quality, they get 5 stars from me!
