ROTFLMAO!!! I'm even more puzzled as to why US Cellular is still in business to begin with. They need to be bought by Sprint or Verizon already.
...
Well let's see...it is a basic every day flip phone for people who want a basic every day phone. No issues there. Believe it or not only 1/2 of Cellular customers have smart phones. This is a GREAT phone for basic useage.
U.S. Cellular actually does have a very competitive set of phones it carries and is launching TONS more elite level smart phones this year alone.
ALSO, USCC is a VERY profitable company. They have an incredibly dedicated customer base of over 7 million customers, and a list of awards and achievements about a mile high...to sum it up...they aren't in a situation that anyone would need to buy them out 🙂

That would be correct, in total volume of customers. They did recently announce themselves as a National Carrier this year, so technically 5th if you put them in that perspective.
...
I dunno, I think you might be exaggerating a bit when you say "TONS" of elite smartphones are being released on USCC.

At the moment, slightly more than half of all phone purchases are smartphones which means ALMOST HALF THE WORLD STILL GETS THESE TYPES OF PHONES!!!!
NO IT DOESN'T HAVE WHAT YOU WANT, BUT IT ALSO DOESN'T COST A FORTUNE TO OWN!!
...
The numbers for smartphones only continue to each year that goes by. By quite a bit.

They should continue to rise for a while. I agree. I am not convinced it will lead to the demise of the "dumb" flip phones like this though. Still a market out there for them and will be for some time.

I used to have the Sharp V903, that was an awesome flip phone, it had stereo speakers built into the side of the screen, the screen would rotate and be flat when using the phone as a camera, it even had a camera with a real 3x optical zoom.
I'm kinda sad that flip phones in the U.S. never evolved into more usable and advanced devices similar to the Sharp V903.
A while ago Vzn had a flip phone from Samsung that had a good camera where the screen would rotate and be flat for use as a camera.
Flip phones just stopped evolving.

My wife had that Samsung flip camera phone for a couple of years. Had a 3mp camera which was good for the time. Bright red too.
She has the Casio Exilim right now which is a decent upgrade to the Samsung. 5mp camera that flips and military spec. Doesn't have the bulk of the typical military spec phones though which is nice. Doesn't have to worry about the kids grabbing and destroying it 😁
I guess with a smartphone there are too many compromises for a flip design.

Wouldn't be funny if this phone didn't have all of the things you mentioned, except the dual-core processor? What would you think of that? lol
...
Lol, well you can have your smartphone pal, but your grandpa still might want this phone, believe it or not.
