CATS22 Flip (16GB) 2.8" Touchscreen, Android 11, IP68 Water Resistant, 4G LTE GSM (T-Mobile Unlocked for MetroPCS, Global) (Black)

I LOVE MY FLIP PHONE. i got it 10ish months ago & couldn't be happier. everything works. snapchat works, tiktok works, instagram works, firefox works, venmo, canvas, duolingo, discord, my bank app, libby, lettorboxd, duo mobile, life360, mychart, email, youtube, YES.it brings delight everywhere. everyone is dazzled by the throwback & blindsided that it's a touchscreen. it's basically just a 2.8-in-tall android. I got a phone case to glam it up only, because this thing is a tank as it is. I fling it around lots.and the camera is DREAMY. so much better than I expected, it has a retro digital camera look, and the image is sharper than the smart Tracfones I always used (before i took a gamble on a pixel & it shattered like a bowl of spaghetti spilling out of its heavy-duty case &screen protector). i use Mint Mobile & it works fantastic. i'm never going back to a "real" phone!!this thing's like, JUST inaccessible enough to discourage extended use (like reading before bed) to help encourage healthy habits & much less scrolling. battery life is kinda goated until my friends made me let life360 stay on in the bg, but still easily easily lasts me the full day. ALSO!!! you can change the background of the outer screen thing. it rules.they do warn you that tap-to-pay doesn't work. more importantly, i've never managed to swing a QR code, it just doesn't happen. and if you record any video, there will be a high-pitched ringing noise in the background. your friends on snapchat and tiktok will complain about it but oh well. gboard was hilariously tiny until i uninstalled it to force myself to actually use the keypad as God intended. the keypad is a learning curve but i enjoy spending the extra time. voice typing is always a super convenient alternative. the only thing I wish there was a fix for was needing to wait for the letter selection to finalize if the next letter you're gonna type is on the same key... or else it will just continue rotating through the options. mildly annoying, but well worth the struggle. ah, and no headphone jack, but that's typical nowadays.i love this item to bits. astonished to have not run out of storage space yet. sorry it's over 60$ now they're catching on to how awesome this is but i promise you will love it

I recently got the Cat S22 Flip (16GB), and I’m thoroughly impressed with its performance. This phone combines the simplicity of a flip phone with the features of a modern smartphone. The 2.8” touchscreen is responsive and easy to navigate, even for those who prefer something smaller and more straightforward. The Android 11 operating system provides a smooth, user-friendly experience, while the 16GB of storage is sufficient for all my essential apps and media.What sets the Cat S22 Flip apart is its rugged design. With an IP68 water-resistant rating, I don’t have to worry about getting caught in the rain or accidentally dropping it in water. The phone’s military-grade durability makes it a great choice for those who need a phone that can handle tough conditions. It’s not only built to last but also offers 4G LTE connectivity, ensuring I can stay connected with fast internet speeds on T-Mobile or MetroPCS networks.Overall, the Cat S22 Flip is an excellent device for anyone seeking a reliable, durable, and functional phone. It’s perfect for those who want a no-fuss smartphone experience without compromising on toughness or performance. Whether you’re working outdoors, traveling, or simply prefer a more compact device, this phone is a great choice!

I like the feel and heft of the phone. I like the loud speakerphone and audio section. No headphone jack. Usb-c headphone dongle included in box. I use Bluetooth and that works great. The phone is sturdy as can be. Can drop in puddle and not worry about it. Display brightness good. Battery life will vary depending on your location preferences and settings. Should easily last all day once you load it up. SD card slot for expansion. Alot of apps available in google go store. The front notification screen is good, and you can set a mini wallpaper for it. This phone is definitely worth $60. I use metropcs. No problems activating in store.The cons-Food apps dont work normally. One time the taco bell app worked. Then it just quit. Cant fix it. Reinstall does nothing. Cant use. Mcdonalds failed completely today. Cant use. Little Caesars app works, but takes some doing. You see, alot of your experience actually depends on your font size. If youre font is too big, the phone will push things offscreen and not let you scroll to see them. So i had to adjust font to max small to register for little Caesars. Sometimes i use chrome to go to the food websites instead to order. Hassle. Amazon wont work for me either. Walmart pickup also doesn't generate the barcode so they can scan at the store. Had a big issue yesterday with that. Cant do store pickup now. It did work for our movie tickets. By the way, max small font on a tiny screen is SMALL. but the screen is crisp and responsive. Texting is a chore. Forget about driving and doing anything on this thing. Especially if you set a security pin. But for me its good because im trying to purposely cut down on cell use, especially while driving. If you have to use this phone while you're driving, you have to pull over. Forget about surfing the web. Just a chore. Havent tried doordasher app but i do have google maps. Chances are the doordasher app wouldnt work or be reliable.Bottom line this thing is a bulletproof superduty basic communication device. Just because it has android go dont get your hopes up.
