My dad needs a phone. He doesn't really care if it's a smartphone or not, but he needs something loud, durable (ideally), and that just works well.

I don't know anything about phones outside of smartphones. Help

iPhone honestly.

The HTC phones with front facing speakers might be better for sound. I have no idea how durable they are but that's what cases are for.

Nokia 105

Super durable
Insane battery life
No nonsense
Price is a steal

Why does it seem impossible to find these kinds of Nokia phones in America?
>>
>>53791830
Check Amazon. There's also the Nokia 220 and 215 which are newer models at about the same price.

Get him a fucking jitterbug, don't come here asking for old people tech, everyone's going to shill their fanboy favorites.

They make loud, durable phones for older folks. Giant ass letters, big buttons, loud as fuck. There you go, I just saved you 300 replied of circlejerking and shit flinging.

If you don't get him a smartphone you may as well buy him a courier pigeon.
>>
>>53791987
Which jitterbug? I see samshit makes one.

>>53792159
He was looking at the unlocked 5s fairly intently, he may want to go with that.

Just tell him to get a cheapo flip-phone.

I'm not sure the choice of phone has any effect on call quality.

newsflash, phones have different antennaes in different locations

recall the iPhone "you're holding it wrong" incident.

If you need a robust phone with literally months of battery time, you can do no better than this phone. Here's a demonstration:

I've had mine for years and it has never let me down. Don't honestly know if they are still being made though.

Cheapest Verizon smartphones right now

Lo tier (not horrible phones and would probably work)
>Samsung Galaxy Core Prime
>HTC Desire 526

Mid tier
>iphone se

God tier
>Motorola Droid Maxx 2

Cheapest Verizon basic phones rn
>LG Terra (flip)
>Samsung Gusto III (flip)

If it were me I would try to snag a used iphone 4S from somewhere. They're small and easy and hard to break. Usually cheap too.
>>
>>53797892
He's on att

I actually hadn't heard about the se today he might get that it would be better than the 5s for sure
>>
>>53797975
>He's on att
That's your problem right there, anon.

>.....it would be better than the 5S for sure
Yeah on paper right now it looks like the SE is better. Better hardware and better price.

Just be aware that Apple is the shittiest and slimiest company out there and their quality control with this latest iShit shouldn't be trusted.

Seriously if I were you I'd buy used but if you're gonna buy new make sure he tests it out fully before the 14 day return period passes up. The last thing you wanna do is get him stuck financing a phone he doesn't like. Especially an overpriced iShit.
>>
>>53798075
>financing

Yeah no he's just going to buy it outright, 400 isn't much.
>>
>>53798114
If he gets it that is
