yep I have a little flip phone which is very user friendly. Does everything I want a phone to do.

I got a cheap samsung flip phone. It cost $10 with verizon pre-paid. I like mine, it fits in bib top pocket. Battery out lasts the one I had on an LG flip phone.

I'm not smart enough to have a smart phone. I'm afraid I would break a smart phone too.

I had a razor and liked it. Now I've got a Motorola. Not sure what model but I like it. I'm on it now

I have Verizon and I have a Samsung Convoy flip phone. It has been a much better phone than the Razor phones where.

After having a smart phone you will miss the features of a flip phone.

i will take it in today and see if they can fix it.next time i will put it down a little easier.let my temper get the best of me while trying to post a pic last nite.

Some phones are not too bad to replace the screen. I have done a few for family myself. I haven't looked at that model in particular. Sometimes the screens are cheap, sometimes they aren't. If you take it in, be sure to first look how much a used one goes for on ebay (or something), might find how much one with a broken screen is worth too, that was a popular model so there should be some listed I'd think. Also, if it's high, might look if there's an independent person that does that in any towns around. Some family I couldn't get to that lives in town, I found someone "cheap" for them and it works great. Some screens are probably not cheap or glued on too well, so it won't always work.

If getting a new one doesn't happen. Flip phone you don't want, I like my Motorola Barrage though. Cousin had one and lost it in the pasture for a year, charged it and it still worked but wasn't cosmetically pretty after a year of all of the elements (just faded and the screws had a bit of rust). My town phone is a Moto G. Both on Pageplus. Tracfone, StraightTalk, Pageplus all use the same Verizon network for their CDMA phones. Pageplus lets you activate 3G phones without data plans (I pay $30 per YEAR for each phone). Often for new phones, you can get a cheaper smartphone on one of them. Verizon's direct prepaid had decent too. Moto G is water resistant, but storage room isn't expandable if you take a lot of picutres. I have this case, saves it from many drops or hits, http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00H9RMNUM/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

If I needed a Smartphone with some data and enough minutes for me, there is an LG Ultimate 2 bundle on ebay and QVC.com. Both sometimes go to $130, and include one year of service at that price, 1200 minutes for the whole year, 1200 texts, 1.2 GB data, plus of course a new phone.

Since I don't use many minutes and don't have data on my current smartphone, not looking at that though. Smartphones are very handy in town but I wouldn't use one on the ranch. The way it works now, I can stop in somewhere that has wifi and look up stuff if needed (or I could add data at any time).

Just looked a few up, here are SOLD listings so you can get an idea what some people actually paid for them (some are a different model). Might cost more to replace the screen than to get another good used one. Not saying you should buy on ebay, but if you do, look for "Clean ESN". Another reputable place to buy used is swappa.com. Spend what you want, myself if I had something like that to do, I just like to check things out.

I just did step up from a flip phone to a Verizon Samsung Galaxy S4. It is slowly teaching me how to use it. The one big thing I do not like is the size. It is difficult to put in your pocket, but it will fit.

I have a Samsung Convoy flip for everyday use outside, also carry a PINK Motorola Razr for my son's electronics business. Thinking of getting a smart phone just for in house use at farm so I can have hotspot for internet usage. Maybe carry in pickup for data in the field, too big to keep in shirt pocket.

Thats the same phone i have. Does everything i need. Even droped it a few times and its been ok. Now i havent ever slamed it but so far so good. All the newer phones seem to be getting bigger and bigger like having a laptop hanging on your belt.SO hope this one stays alive
