I have an 8 month old baby. My smart phone broke, and I just ordered one of these, as I decided it would be better if I have less screen time, and baby doesn't learn to get attached to screens. I think this is a neat enough device for my needs!
Cool device. Dual screen + câmera + eSim is an amazing combo for a feature phone. Price is good, looks fast and well optimized. Would definitely get one if available on my region.
I've been carrying and using, 24/7 - a flip phone and smartphone for the last 14 years. I have been a caretaker for about 22 years, and a phone operator for 11 years. The flip phones are more efficient call devices when I'm running to the car. And when I'm carrying a bunch of stuff. and when I drop the flip phones I can easily buy another one if it breaks. As an operator, I always preferred people to use flip phones because they sound better at my end at a big call center here in California, than smartphones do. (believe it or not).
I have 2 main concerns about the Iris Flip Phone. #1, it does not show caller ID on the lid when the lid is closed, it only shows callers phone number. You must open the lid to see who is calling. #2 The Iris Flip Phone does not acknowledge specific ringtones when you assign ringtones to individual callers. Please advise if you have noticed these major problems. Thank You!
Thank you for reviewing more KaiOS devices! With stuff like this out, why one would buy those expensive Jelly Star, TIQ, AGM, CAT, Flex, Sunbeam, etc type devices is beyond me.
Reason is, they run on Android, sure if you are in North/South America, sure it will runs just fine but KaiOS is, sadly, abandoned by the creator + Google pulled out from the project. Not to mention, to put apps on KaiOS requires the entire software to be done from scratches. Most of the phone you named are either Android or AOSP, so there is that
Furthermore, on Android, one doesn't have to deal with forced full screen ads for so many apps (KaiOS forces this for all KaiStore apps, not to mention some built in apps).
Re:my previous comment's questions...Talked to another CC rep tonight who sd 'Iris Flip' is not out of stock➡it is being REPLACED by the 'Iris Easy Flip'➡the difference being it has less functions, such as voice assistant to speak texts vs typing them out, & GPS. It seems the Easy flip runs on Android, not the system you were so excited abt & hoping might be further expanded. But, having been misinformed by cc support yesterday, I'm not sure if I should trust the person I spoke to today🤪. I'm hoping you'll see this soon & clarify for me...either way, thanks for sharing your expertise.
I have addiction issues if there is a browser on the device, it would be nice if there was a browser that could open links sent to you in text/email but not let you go off on your own. How is the browser on this device? A weak browser that only does essentials would probably be best for me.
Hey! Do you know how to disable the volume buttons on the side? My grandfather has issues with accidentally turning his volume down. He is low vision. I went through settings but couldn’t find it!
Hi, love your review. I'm thinking about switching from Tracfone to Consumer Cell. I like flip phones and this seems like a good one. How is the photo editing on it? and I don't mind T9 texting but I don't like predictive texting, so can you just text non-predictive on it. I really like your review. Thanks
Very helpful vid❣Great to be able to see the actual size in a person's hands. 2 QUESTIONS: 1) Do you know what the difference is between the 'Iris Flip Phone' & the 'Iris Easy Flip Phone'? Page on CC's site can't give usual side.by.side comparisons of 'Iris Easy Flip' & 'Iris Flip' ➡per customer service, b/c the 'Iris Flip' is out of stock (phone image also removed til back in stock). 2) Is the Iris Flip you reviewed the original model, or did it come after the 'Easy' model? Thx very much👏🏼
One thing I had to work hard to find out-is how to download photos from this thing to my computer-for anyone else who might be struggling with this-go to settings-scroll right to storage-then set USB storage to enabled-then your computer will recognize your phone when you plug it in to download photos-(Consumer Cellular put this in their manual on pg 23 , -(Copy content between your phone & computer)-I think, but didn't put it under camera issues-so I hope this helps someone else.)
Hey Jose, what is the state of KiaOS on this device in regards to managing pre-installed apps? Can you remove the browser? Can you disable the app store? Thanks!
@@JoseBriones WhatsApp is missing due to KaiOS 3, not yet supported. I wonder I is taking so long for Whatsapp to bring the updated version of the app that supports KaiOS 3+
I have owned mine for about three months and have had a few glitches that CC has not been able to resolve. I was told to wait until they work out the software bugs to get my voice to text operational again. Was not satisfied with customer service.
Consumer Cellular is good if you have strong AT&T coverage. As far as being better than the 2720v, it is a bit better for sure. However, if you need Whatsapp or any apps that only work with KaiOS 2.5, you won't have them available in this phone.
Incoming calls seem to go to voicemail too quickly. Is there a way to change the number of rings so you have more time to answer the phone? Also, someone mentioned there was a way to make an emergency phone call to a contact on this phone, but I can't find any directions for that. If this is true, how do you do that? (Sure wish there was a complete instruction booklet for the phone - the couple of guides that you can download don't have very much information in them at all!). Thanks!
I can't seem to get the name of the caller that's in my contacts to show up on the outside screen. It shows the number but not the name. It kinda defeats the caller I. D. feature. It shows the name when I flip the phone open but at that point I'm answering the phone. Any suggestions appreciated.
@@diane5174I kinda figured it out. Go to settings - personalization - scroll to lid- turn off open to answer call. You then have to open the phone tap on answer or something similar but it shows who's calling before you answer if they're in your contact list.
Hi Jose! Good job on this video. I currently have a dumb phone and the provider I have works good for me. It's Mint Mobile. Will this phone work on Mint Mobile's network or only on Consumer Cellular? Thank you for your help.
You have to unlock this phone for it to work on Mint, but it is possible. It takes about 60 days of use on Consumer cellular and then you can unlock it and use in other carriers.
Hi - is the the IRIS Easy Flip or IRIS Flip? Sounds like there is a difference. Looks like Consumer Cellular offers the IRIS Easy Flip and so just wanted to check which phone is being reviewed here. Thank you.
I've never used an esim before. Can you switch between this phone and another phone with a traditional sim card or if you have e-sim do you have to only use e-sim devices?
Are you sure about the 60-day carrier unlock you mention at 4:34? The terms-and-conditions on the Consumer Cellular website says it's six months, which is the same as their network operator AT&T. I think 60-day is just Verizon.
i have a flip phone from consumer cellular and it dose not have apps from the IRIS it really sucks becuase i broke my other phone once and i REALLY want to get this this IRIS has a voice assistant i can ask something like idk about minecraft so yea I will get this Phone!
How do you, or can you, move your contacts from a flip with a SIM card over to a phone with an e-SIM? I may investigate one of these. Lately the flip phone offering from CC have been, well, rotten!
I am about ready to throw mine in the trash! I don't see how to get mine to set to voice to text from your video or the manual. I am so frustrated. Can you please help?
@@diane5174 Hi, I have a temp method. Go to Settings-Personalization-Lid-Open to answer call, and select Off. When you receive a new call, flip the cover and you can get the caller information on the home screen and decide whether to answer it with the Answer button or not. Hope this helps!
Hi I've been following you for quite a while now and I finally decided to buy a dumb phone myself. But I'm torn between Nokia 110 4G 2023 and Nokia 8210 4G. Which one is a better choice in your opinion? I live in Europe and out of all dumb phones available in my country these ones seemed best for me.
@@Apo22662 I saw all pros and cons and decided not to get the phone with Kaios, also Nokia 8000 is hard to buy in my country, the only Kaios device I could get is Nokia 800 tough. Today I ordered Nokia 110 4G 2023 and I will see how it is. But thank you for replying!
So how do you access the text messages when you are on a phone call? Where is the option to scroll to open the app menu to access a text message while you are on a call
How do you put contacts in the iris flip phone. When I mash the letter c a and all the other letters comes up I can't figure out how to put the whole name in there correctly with the spelling
Can you add some additional words to your channel name? I searched for ages to find your channel after I already subscribed. Maybe “dumb phone reviews” or something about “minimalist tech” etc
I hope you can help me. Whenever I try to put in a contact name such as Target the T goes in ok but the next letter which is A, it shows up as O. And so on. Can't get any other letters in correctly. This is on the Iris flip phone I just got yesterday 2/3/24. Adding contacts has never been a problem on any other phone. As usual the Consumer tech line was no help.
You were right. When I press the * key it shows ABC on top of screen. Then the contact letters go in as wanted but * has to be repeated for the first name too. Plus has to done entering any future contacts. Not impressed with the hassle. I am impressed with your prompt reply and good help. Excellent service. Would you know if weather radar with moving radar image can be downloaded on this phone? I see local temperatures can be seen on Kai.... weather. THANKS!!!!
Correction to getting ABC on Iris flip phone. Press the # key. Not the * key. I had data shut off. Internet on the Iris flip phone is so bad that sitting by the ocean waiting for a floating bottle with a message in it was more productive.
is this even bigger than the Nokia 2780? That looks to be the case and I already find the buttons on the 2780 to be HUGE. Obviously, they are making these phones for senior citizens, but the rest of us would like things a bit smaller lol
Please speak slower . Please slowly show us which button you are going to push before you push it. And allow us to see WHERE it takes us before you go on to the next step. Please let the entire phone be visible at all times, and if you need to cover anything remove your hand once you have performed the action and explain what we did not see.
This is a dumb phone. So many problems and had to replace it 3 times due to screen freezing, charging problems, and just stops working. Plus, it's slippery. When trying to answer a call if it slips it hangs up on caller. Done with this phone.
So not impressed with the IRIS flip, my first one froze up could not do anything with it even getting with Consumer Cell. It was sent back an replaced, now the current one is doing the same thing, so frustrating to say the least, this has all been since the end of Oct 2023. The instructions on line or in the book provided, not to much help. Names do not come up when you get a call, you have to open the phone to see who's calling, but when you get a tex the name will come up. Had to major reboot it tonight, lost all contacts, pic's an messages, an now my camera won't save pic's to the gallery. This phone will be replaced asap ...
I had mine freeze up after the tech at Target had it up & running-he had transferred all my contacts, I had picked out a ring tone-thought it was good-got home & read an email asking me to turn the phone off & back on-at that point-it froze to that orange consumer cellular screen-I spent hours on the phone with CC -told me to pry the back cover off & remove & re-insert the battery-didn't help-they actually told me it was a dud to return it & get another one-I headed to Target, but there was no tech at that time-came home & started googling & found tons of people with the same issues on Reddit-followed their steps to take it back to factory settings-lost all my contact-but the phone # stayed-so I re-entered contacts & it has been working now-but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone with these issues-it's enough to make you flush it down the toilet.-very aggravating.
I always give away most of the phones I review. There is a giveaway period where you can sign up usually every 3 months. Stay tuned to the channel for those videos and giveaways.
This phone has a terrible camera, voice recognition doesn't work well and the calendar is very primitive. Forget using the internet because the screen is too small. Otherwise it's a just alright phone for making calls and text. This review is pretty good even if the phone isn't .

I always give away most of the phones I review. There is a giveaway period where you can sign up usually every 3 months. Stay tuned to the channel for those videos and giveaways.
@@JoseBriones thank you... hope you can send me one of your collection phone...
can you call an Uber with this?
Yes
Anyone know if this phone has a flashlight?
It’s pretty weak.
does this have whatsapp?
No
This phone has a terrible camera, voice recognition doesn't work well and the calendar is very primitive. Forget using the internet because the screen is too small. Otherwise it's a just alright phone for making calls and text. This review is pretty good even if the phone isn't .
Terrible video. The written words conceal the buttons you push and you do not say which ones you are using. very fuse rating
Does the Iris flip phone have a speed dial feature?
