I gave it as a gift to my father. Good mobile phone, it withstands falls, it is waterproof, but the big negative is that it has very small letters and does not have the option to enlarge them.... So the purchase is in vain...
Affordable mobile for its price and suitable for the intended use. As others have mentioned, the only negative aspect is that it has very small letters in the menu, without giving the option to change it.
I bought it twice for my father. The first time, the battery died, which costs almost as much as a new phone!! That's why I only give it two stars. It could last forever if you could find a cheap battery, but they probably don't want you to.
I chose it exclusively for calls since my father, who has no other demands from the device, uses it. I wanted a device that is easy to use and durable. It has a powerful speaker, catches very good signal in areas where other 5G phones do not catch, and is resistant to falls, hits, dust, dirt, oil, etc. With a damp cloth, it becomes as good as new.
Unfortunately, I will have to return it. It has a screw at the back which, after the first installation, prevents the phone from opening if you want to change the SIM. For 3 months of use, it is good and I can only comment positively. Unfortunately, the fact that it seals the back and the screw doesn't work makes it a bad construction.
I gave it to my father who doesn't want a smartphone...the mobile is old-fashioned but it works perfectly fine. I won't hide that I envy it a little bit. Huge battery, big buttons, strong speaker and durable. It's everything I would ask for in such a device.
- It is highly durable. It can withstand falls and impacts.
- The battery lasts 3-4 days with normal use.
- It charges quickly.
- It has a powerful flashlight.
- It is waterproof.
- Headphones are not needed for the radio.
Negatives:
- The menu is really terrible. It reminds me of a bad version of a 1990s mobile menu and is even worse.
- For some reason, in SMS messages, instead of allowing me to write 160 characters per message, it only lets me write 70 characters per message. Changing the font and keyboard settings allows me to send messages with 160 characters, but when I send them, they are blank messages.
- In the two weeks I've had it, it has lost the time and date three times after a phone call for no reason.
- The font size in the menu does not change. It is small.
- This particular phone is not bought for the photos. Okay, accepted, but the ones it takes are very blurry.
- In the year 2021, it has only 1MB of memory for photos, videos, and sounds. No, it's not a spelling mistake. 1MB.
- The speakerphone does not sound clear.
Unbelievable phone, I'm waiting for it to break so I can get the same one again. The speaker is comparable to portable Bluetooth speakers and it has a much longer battery life than any other phone (unless you talk for many hours a day).
I got it for my grandfather because whatever he had until now, it broke within a few months/days. With a little guidance, he learned it to a good extent (usually listens to the radio and takes or sees photos).
1. It would be more convenient if the lens was accessible without unlocking the screen.
2. The charging port would be helpful if it was type C to make it easier for my grandfather.
Sturdy construction, great for calls with loud and clear sound. The speaker is very good and the open listening is excellent. Easy to operate. It is a mobile phone that can withstand rough use, making it ideal for someone who does manual labor without worrying about damage. I highly recommend it for such use...! It's worth the money (don't expect great things from photos and videos).
If you're looking for a phone with buttons, you should be mainly interested in the basics (calling, texting, battery life). Except for the call quality, which is one level below that of a smartphone (still satisfactory), I am satisfied with everything else. If you plan to keep it for years, the price is good, but if you only need it for a short period of time (e.g. your military service), get something cheaper.
My father-in-law (aged 75+) uses it and is very satisfied. Easy to use with large buttons and a Greek keyboard. Additionally, it has a very powerful speaker, the whole building can hear it! The camera is also very good and user-friendly, as it is easily accessible and doesn't require navigating through menus to use.
Having had the previous B25 model for 4 years, I believed that the new one would be similar. However, from the moment I received it, I was disappointed. It had no resemblance to the quality of construction of its predecessor, nor its sturdiness. The battery was also very disappointing, with minimal calls lasting no more than 1 1/2 days. Overall, it was a failed purchase.
Solid construction but nothing more. The screen and camera resolution are not good, but you don't expect that from such a phone. It doesn't have a strong speaker, so you can't hear it when it vibrates. Another big problem is that the letters on the screen are very small, making it difficult to read, and it doesn't maximize the screen to enlarge the letters and numbers. So if you have even the slightest degree of myopia, don't get it. In short, it's a potato, not worth it.
