What a beautiful mobile phone. Seriously, what's not to love about it. OK, it's not a Galaxy Edge, or an iPhone 6. But just look at it. Just pure BEAUTY.
Having a look around these seem to be the pros and cons I can find:
Pros:
Perfect Gift for the 80's enthusiast
Bluetooth & SIM ready
Simple & easy to use
Long battery life
Access your contacts and music from iOS or Android
Cons:
No Snake. (OMG! It has Snake! Thanks j0rd4n500)
No Apple App Store / Google Play Store.
No Candy Crush.
Looking at it, if it's similar to it's 80s variants, you may need to sit up a tree to receive the best possible signal.
No Nokia 8110 style flip to give you that Keanu Reeves Matrix feel.
But come on. £17.99 to be the talk of the party? No Brainer.

Yeah, after careful consideration, that should probably have been put in the 'Pros' section :smile:
It's going to be highly difficult not to at this price.

He will be sacked immediately! Well when i get back from stopping this damn asteroid. He should have checked before washing. Amateur.

I checked - he says your phone just went through a hot cycle in the washing machine. It's shrunk!

I'll come clean like my gruds. I am superman but not American that's just Hollywood americanising everything. I'm actually from the north of England cannot be precise because that would be giving too much away. But we use alot of words here that may not conform to the rest of the country. Now must go to check if my underwear and trousers have been cleaned by my housekeeper.

OK, come clean: you are either American or Superman if you wear your 'pants' on the outside - right?

What made you think that i put my phone in my underwear. :confused:

Where did people carry these back in the day. Or did they just walk around with them. Ive just checked my biggest pocketed pants i have and i still dont think this will fit in them. So due to practicle reasons im voting cold BUT then again it is white so....

You have pockets in your pants? Are you Superman? The rest of us would be using slightly larger pockets in our trousers.

Most people put phones in their trousers rather than their underwear!

I'll stock with my Nokia 105 my backup phone - £15 with snake, battery lasts for ages and most importantly it fits in your pocket!

****omgpleasespamme**** What kind of clueless oik are you? When people refer to pockets in their pants, they are not referring to Clavin Kleins, they are referring to Wranglers

I have this as a spare and the battery life is much better than my S6.

I'd actually find it pretty useful since I can't get a mobile signal anywhere apart from 1 inch away from a window. Would be handy as a desk phone attached to the mobile via Bluetooth. Heat from me.

You missed out an important feature: its emergency setting.
In an emergency you whack your assailant over the head with it.

Ahhh, takes me back to driving around with my journalist friend when I came back from university; this thing would be in the passenger foot well with me and I ended up carrying it around for him....... No one was going to do a runner with this.

Well I'm sorry I couldn't conduct a quick straw poll of the people who would have used these back in the day. I think they're likely in bed.
