SoHo
so what is everyone's opinion on the SoHo? I have a friend who wants a cheap flip phone; however, I haven't gotten any feedback from customers on this phone and of course I want to sell her a good phone. If you've heard anything, good or bad, let me know! Thanks in advance

as a fellow Gdubber, we have only gotten a couple out..and haven't heard anything yet..good or bad...personally, i wish we sold some faceplates... 😕

OK, I've had my Soho for about 5 days, and these are my observations after that time:
PROS:
Phone seems pretty sturdy, especially the hinge. Keypad gives good tactile feedback.
Excellent call quality, for both the user and the called party. I made several calls with "zero" bars of signal and they still went through and were clear as a bell. The speakerphone is quite good. RF appears good, based on my one-day jaunt along a country road with weak signals.
Decent menu system, not too different from the Nokias I've used in the past. I changed the graphic menu displays to text, found that easier to use.
Backlighting "on" time can be varied from 7 seconds to 30 seconds, to save power. There is also a powersaving mode that is a...

Thanks for the input! nice to hear something besides "this phone is boring!". 🤣

I've seen it and don't care for it. The V262 sounds like a better bet in the clamshell no camera format.

This has been a pretty stable handset so far. I have not had any of my agent locations take any returns.

I've had mine a couple of weeks. So far it's been a nice phone.
I bought it to replace my ultra-POS Moto C343. (Screen freezes up a lot on the moto; and it was my second one. Moto had to replace the first one because the screen just quit working.)
I didn't see the need for a phone, since I am too cheap to pay for picture messaging and EasyEdge (US Cellular) anyway. If all you want a phone for is to talk and send text messages, this will be exactly what you need.
Haven't found anything I don't like about it yet!
