best Phone for me

Is the call quality good?

@@crunchygreeny really good, with VoLte better

@@4and4ever44 How can I get VoLte? Do I just request it from my broadband?

Exactly

It won't. I have this phone and it is pretty tough!

Phone looks like it would just bounce off the hardest floors around - just like the old Nokias did ... worst, the battery would pop out 🤣.

It's very plastic like

Correction it is literally plastic 😅

This is my problem too, there similar to the size of an actual brick no thanks.

Yes, you need the .mp3 files of it though

Hi @tillydevine2928 That is exactly what happened to me today, I was outside/in the woodshe, and the missus came down & demanded to know why I didn't hear her ringing.. I went into the phone settings to show her, the phone was on a LOUD incoming call rintone setting. She then rang my phone and it went (silently) brrinnng brrinng? Almost the same as an empty tin rolling across a carpetted floor. Useless.!!! .. Oh and it vibrated (also useless) We tried a lot of different ringtones all with the same tinnie result. ? I went inside and rang my phone again, but with the house phone. Bingo it screamed at 9 with the loudest ring tone I had selected. So she rang it again (from her cellphone again as she had all the other times) Brrin Brriing (rolling can sound, across the carpet). WTF? Ok so I went into my contacts" and opened her name. There it was (away down out of sight, when scrolling) Ringtone. There was that silly miniscule / tin rolling / rattle sound.!!!! It was very quickly changed to a VERY LOUD (possibly dfferent to other calls) RINGTONE Now where did I find it? open your contacts list, select whoever is calling you, with the wrong ring-tone open their name, and it;s the last (hidden) option. Either scroll down until ringtone appears, or at their name scroll UP to unhide: Ringtone. I have now set mine to: Seahorse What an impressively LOUD ring She rang it and boy, there's no way I will NOT HEAR that now.

It can be a little tricky - I found it worked out a little easier if I pushed down on the sim card (but not the sim tray) with a fingernail while pushing it out). Take it slow and easy though - you don’t want to damage the tray.

@@AlexKidman Hi Alex I just didn’t want to force it (and break) but got it out thank you for the tips 🙏

They aint gone, you just have to OPEN the contact first, to then select call.

bad for elderly - tested

What makes you say that​@?

@@Pedroelgroing 1 - the frame of directional controller is not sensible with finger or nail, 2 - only "darkmode" text available - it is less readable for old than black on white. 3. both picku up and drop/onn-off buttons are non colored - old person is confused what to push if want to drop the call or make a call. 4. by default it asks unlock the phone - again, it is hard task for old person, thanks god I found a way to get rid of blocking.

How should elderly folks see super narrow black direction buttons on a black pad?? They wouldn't be able to press it at all, you d****s at Nokia!! Super soft volume buttons on the side - are you guys even normal??

​@ I just bought it for my grandma and i can't find an option to make it answer the call when I open the screen, is it unavailable?!!

Nope

Get the 2720 it's more expensive but comes with WhatsApp downloaded

Nope, but 2720 flip have WhatsApp and support WA calls, and now very cheap

Me too! I just want a simple phone that calls and WhatsApps. That is all

Its a PHONE to be used as A PHONE.Use something else if you want to use Whatsapp or simply TALK to people

It answers calls when opened, but this may be disabled. The phone lock can't be disabled, but when you open the phone the buttons are always unlocked.

@@PhotoAssassin thankyou for your reply!

​@@PhotoAssassin How to activate it, i just bought it and it doesn't answer calls when flipped opened !!

Yeah -- but realistically the iPad Mini is doing 99.9% of all the heavy lifting there, with the 2660 basically just taking calls and texts.

It does have, you just have to enter the main menu, and select the camera icon from there. I've put the camera icon directly above "chat/messages" so that I can see it on the 9 icon view inside MENU It opens on camera with portait to the left and video to the right. Me.. I'm tryng to figure out how to convert the stupid SOS button, to open the camera Like my old Classic 6120 used to do.

Best guess -- check that the battery is actually installed in the phone and that it's seated correctly. Try popping it out and back in, try charging again. If that fails, then I'd say you've either got a bad battery or a bad phone -- time to chase up a refund or replacement!

I'm going to guess colour variations by market -- this is how it came out of the box in the Australian market, but perhaps they've done differently elsewhere? Certainly not something done after the fact, because this was a loan phone from HMD Global, gone back the way it came to me.

@@AlexKidman i am from Bangladesh. mine is made in india. The navigation buttons are black.

@@superman-sn7xh That's genuinely unusual -- even the official press images for the 2660 Flip have it in gold, eg: images.ctfassets.net/u4kpzn5cffwn/OLIdvPYlLpWoH2tOofSHv/da05d3d68ee54b73de15ede22c74a7f3/nokia_2660_Flip-2023-open_back-black-1.png

@@AlexKidman Nah the one they gave you was a "promo" phone (all the regular retail phones are blackkeys, period)

I hate it when they come with things like facebook downloaded onto them. I hate social media and I just don't want to see their logos.

My review model's gone back to Nokia/HMD, but from memory it's set in the settings app..

@@AlexKidman cannot find it anywhere

You got copy phone man. It must be shown date on the second sceen automatically

@@superman-sn7xh nah many people also do not get it

Yes

Haven't seen that error myself, but if a reset doesn't fix that and their help can't in fact, well... help... then yeah, I'd say a refund is your best bet. Frustrating, but still the best path.

Thanks, I got a refund and bought a Samsung 😊

What Samsung did you buy? ​@@alinaazzollini5678

Don't believe it does (though untested from this end, sorry).

Thanks

Do you like this? Does it work well?

I'd call it moderately loud at maximum; a quick ad-hoc, app-based check of volume near the 2660 Flip shows rough volume at around 80dB or thereabouts. One option if your father uses a hearing aid and it's Bluetooth compatible would be to pair to the phone as it also supports Bluetooth (though not all hearing aids do).

No lol

@@cloclodu31380 oh ok, thanks

@@cloclodu31380yes it can and it has

Maybe test the OPERATOR 1st, who never read the "settings" section, for the phone. 1 The "frame" outline/ around the main menu button = is reduced yes, but it's still raised (ever so slightly) 2 The dark backgrouNd with white over, is OK for a basic look. ESPECIALLY for old &/or colour blind people (WHO WEAR SUNGLASSES AS AN ICON) 3. YOU could go into settings and TURN THAT FEATURE OFF, (but you obviously didn't).!!!! Oh and the same goes for 4 4. UNBLOCKING is possibly what's called "unlocking" You can easily UNLOCK / RELOCK by pressing the left middle button and then the master select. Pressing the master select again, unlocks the keypad and displays the screen. Flipping open the phone, to see NOTHING and with it's keypad "locked buttons"? Means one thing "only" and that is: YOU STILL HAVE NOT SET THE SETTINGS PROPERLY.. HAVE YOU? Hit that middle left button (the white square with the top RH corner ripped off) IT OPENS THE MAIN (GO-TO) SELECTION MENU Do not select LOCKSCREEN ..... or it will lock the screen Scroll DOWN four times, to SECURITY Select SECURITY It opens to display a word & that word is: KEYGUARD SELECT IT and toggle whichever way you want it SET It's the auto ON (or always off) KEYGUARD setting, that you have set wrong You have it set ON (to always lock the keys) Set that OFF, to always have the phone UNOCKED by flipping it open. !!!! There see, SENILE OLD MEN should do the (CORRECT) settings first. Before commenting ... THAT THEY ARE SENILE.

nokia 2780 4g and nokia 6400 4g

B/S You did NOT press the down volume button far enough Or the ring LEFT side. It is also "acts" as the down setting button (at either side of "menu" select) Go to personalisation Select SOUNDS SCROLL UP to unhide the KEYPAD VOLUME setting Using the ring LEFT edge - press it to bring the number value down until 0 appears The display box WILL HAVE RED LETTERING (for "Keypad volume") And it will also have a RED SURROUND "box" O will be displayed ((( and also the word SILENT too))) Thus It does go to 0 where it also displays SILENT MODE Instantly, there is no blop sound, when any button is pressed.

100% true - but there’s a market out there that explicitly doesn’t want a smartphone, for a variety of reasons. They’re not reasons that work for me (and at a guess, you either) - but this is an option for them.
