+ Good value for money and there are many features I havent got around to using yet. Excellent battery life.

Score 4.0/10

+ its a small simple phone without frills.

- the buttons are really awful, and theres no bluetooth (i knew this before i bought it but didnt realise how often i use bluetooth), the camera and screen are low grade, but it is an old phone. if only the buttons were easier to use the phone would be a noce simple phone.
