Review: Damn good vision required - The buttons are large, but all else is tiny, particularly words. I found it difficult to set up as a result and will use it as a spare because straining the eyes should be rare. I have given 3 stars for battery life and touch screen as I have not used it since setting up.
Review: Worst phone ever - Returned as it was a refurb and was in shocking condition and could not been given to mother in law as it was in a battered box written all over as grade A it was disgusting. Yes it was cheap but not cheerful and not fit for resale. Seller should be ashamed advertising this as in new condition if was not and was swiftly returned and a new better quality phone bough from a nearby phone shop. Got what we paid for which was rubbish second hand phone not fit for resale. Huge disappointment and. Waste of our time and money. Refund was sorted fairly quickly that’s the only good thing desertcart refunddd swiftly after item was returned.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does it come unlocked and sim free??**
A: Yes

A: Hi Janet. I have looked up the phones specs and apparently it does have Bluetooth. I returned the one I ordered before I used it as I thought it was too Flimsy and lightweight.

**Q: When you open it does that answer your phone and if yes can this function be switched off?**

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Functional
*by A***R on 13 August 2021*

Doesn’t seem as robust as the same model being replaced, much lighter and seems more plasticky. However ideal for my elderly mum who just needs a phone for speed dial, large keys and simply shut to end call!
