Review: Very Tough phone - This is NOT a phone full of features. This is a very TOUGH phone which is what I required & why I bought it. I won't have to be charging it every day. More like weekly depending on use. It only has 4 ring tones . I needed a tough phone that makes and takes calls. Sends & receives texts. I have had this phone for a while and it is all of the above. Has Bluetooth so I can hook it up to the car hands free. It does have a calculator, calendar,measure converter . Calls are clear . Want a tough phone with.no bells and whistles then this is for you, if not then look elsewhere . It's a very good smart phone de-tox I have used this for a while . For a non smart phone I would have expected the battery life to be much longer. It doesn't need daily charging but I expected a couple of weeks at best which is does not have the legs for
