An opinion please.

We are looking at a non Internet mobile for my wife. All that's needed is to make/receive calls/texts. The one we're looking at has the ability to take photo's plus radio. Can't find any user reviews or pricing structure though. If you'd care to take a look and offer an opinion, we'd be grateful, thanks.

Seriously over priced. Must it be a flip phone?

Have a look through the Argos items, I have the Alba [own make] but it's out of stock at present but any of the lower priced & spec ones should do, there's a flip Alcotel for instance, and one with large buttons & charging station plus SOS function. All under your price point and no fuss Argos, pick up at Sainnbury click & collect https://www.argos.co.uk/sd/flip-phones/

If you feel unsure about some then the Doros are aimed with simplicity of use in mind, with a premium price uplift

Opinion? I wouldn't. Consider https://www.tescomobile.com/shop/pay-as-you-go/alcatel/3080g 24 quid incl £10 PAYG credit. 

Or this even cheaper one, claims has camera and radio https://www.tescomobile.com/shop/pay-as-you-go/dash-4g?queryID=337d797092f074980a889434bd041739&objectID=42280&indexName=prod_default_products

Op here, my wife saw the ad for the phone mentioned on first post, the fact it was a clam phone was a very coincidence. Price of phone is irrelevant. My slight concern is that there were no user reviews, which I've asked for. I did forget to say that she would only use it on rare occasions. I have looked at those you've suggested.

If you type review "make & model of phone" without qoute marks, into search engine it will chuck up all you need, including any on YouTube

The fact you cannot find reviews about the phone you intially spotted should tell you all you need to know, another clue is their home page does not have a real street address,just an e mail & phone contact which I think is illegal for traders but I may be wrong there
