Nokia 2780 Flip | Unlocked | Ver... vs Blackview Rugged Smartphone, BV8...

The keyboard is intuitive and has larger keys with a great tactile response. The predictive features which makes texting easier but has a few quirks. The battery life is acceptable, even though my razor back in 2007 lasted a week on one charge.

This phone has a wireless hotspot, which is easy to configure. Works well for when you need to connect your laptop or another device in a pinch.

Kaios comes with an array of mostly useful apps preloaded (minimal bloatware) usb type c port for charging is great too. Events that ended long ago still display.

Text on screen that tells you degree battery charged is tiny. Also, text letters on keys are tiny, hard to read if you have poor eyesight. The only way to get it back is to shut off the phone and restart it.

Main flaw of the phone is when you want to sync your google contacts and calendar. Phone was not unlocked as described.

Bought this phone specifically hoping for water & bomb-proof construction and huge battery. One thing i would change is the charging.
