Flip3 voice and text

Eddie . 2 days ago

This phone has a big screen and is much simpler to use than my last phone. I like the voice and text only. It cuts out aggravating internet soliciting.

good fone

spike . 3 days ago

Yes, I'd recommend this product.

a more modern unit with fine function

Good phone for ess techy people

Mike . 10 days ago

Yes, I'd recommend this product.

It's a pretty good phone. I'm 72 and I don't need a smart phone. I just think they should have it where you can send a video that's longer than 10 seconds to your friends. They need to fix that, and also it keeps telling me I have a message from "Settings" that I can't seem to delete or acknowledge.

Thank you for your feedback! We appreciate you sharing your experience. Please note that there is a file size limitation when sending videos via text (MMS). Additionally, the recipient's carrier may also impose its own size restrictions, which can affect whether the video is successfully delivered or viewable on their end. As for the message on your phone, we will need more details to be able to assist you. Please feel free to reach out to TCL technical support at: 1-855-224-4228. - Kevin.

This simple phone does everything I need it to do, without bells and whistles.

Not happy. Not an up grade but a down grade. My other phone had more features than flip3

VMHudson . 1 month ago

Not happy with this, not what I took it to be!

New Flip Phone

chocfc . 1 month ago

Nice to have bigger numbers/letters but miss some of the features I had on the last flip phone such as calendar and easier transition from small to large case.

Flip phone 3

Frank . 2 months ago

Phone is ok problem is I have bad eyesight so don’t print is not large enough and green color is not good should be black on white

For when kids get in trouble

UnsolicitedParentAdvice . 4 months ago

Yes, I'd recommend this product.

My kids have a phone for my convenience, not theirs. And let’s be real, carrying a flip phone is way more humiliating for a teenager than not having one at all. So, when they pull something like staying up until 3 a.m. on a school night binge watching YouTube, we whip out this glorious little relic. A quick SIM card swap, and boom, they’re reminded that actions have consequences, one awkward text at a time.

Cost

Jimbob . 5 months ago

I purchased this phone but although the price online is $79.99, by the time I paid for taxes, and activation fees I paid $150 after negotiating from an initial $171 out the door? Why are these additional costs not mentioned in your online ad?

Hello, thank you for your feedback. We recommend that you reach out to your sales representative to explain this to you. Best regards, Kevin.
