Mini Phone Unlocked Smartphone, World’s Smallest 3.0″ HD Touch Screen Android Quad-Core Dual SIM Face lD Android Compact Mobile Phone for Kids &Students 2GB+16GB Blue

Tiny 3g phone works, with limitations, even without network
Because there are no longer any 3g wireless networks in the United States, a family member who is a global communications expert told me this tiny 3g smartphone was useless. Nonetheless, within hours after taking it out of the box, I was able to put a SIM card in it, get it a working phone number and email account, send and receive messages, and make and receive calls, all using my home wifi network. It DOES work, even without a functioning wireless network, but only on wifi or a wireless hotspot. Since there are other similarly priced mini-phones on the market that have 4g, it would make more sense to choose one of those instead of this one. In general, the biggest problem with these tiny phones is that their main feature is also their primary bug: they’re so small! It’s extremely frustrating to try typing anything into it, and you have to do some of that to log in to anything. I would recommend buying a tiny stylus to use with it. Overall, however, if you need a brand-new unlocked phone for very little money, a mini-phone may be your best choice.

Tiny phone
Took a while to power on. But works just like a regular size phone. You need to add it as a line to your phone carrier to make calls but it works

Full-function phone and web device, inexpensive and child-sized.
This phone actually seems to be a reasonably decent phone, especially for its size (about 3.5 inches high, 1.8 inches wide, 0.4 inches thick). It only weighs about 2.4 oz. It is conveniently pocket-sized, even for a child. It’s a very capable phone, well worth the price of only $39.97. At that price, it’s not so scary to provide it to a reasonably responsible child.The battery lasts a whole day without a problem when I carried it about and used it some, but not much. Perhaps it might not last so long if someone used it quite a bit to surf the web quite a bit or make long calls. The fact that, when I unboxed it, it was 99% charged says it holds the charge pretty well when it’s turned off for storage.It’s an Android phone, compatible with any apps from the Play Store you are likely to want.I had no difficulty connecting this phone to my Wi-Fi at home or to the Wi-Fi at places away from home. It surfed the web, made and received phone calls using the Google Voice app.The phone can connect only to 2G and 3G networks. It appears that there is still 3G coverage in my area, so it *might* be possible for it to work. I wasn’t about to pay for another line on my plan to find out. I considered giving it to my grandson, but when I checked coverage there was no 2G or 3G coverage where he lives.I unboxed the phone and found these items. All were in perfect condition. (1) The actual phone. (2) A SIM card extractor tool. (3) a USB A to USB C charging cable (no charging block). (4) A clear protective case. (5) A screen protector. (6) The user manual. Seriously, the entire, English portion of the user manual was a single, 2.25-inch x 3.25-inch section of this paper. Also, there was another section the same size with FCC boilerplate information in the tiniest print. I had to use a magnifier app to read it.I was glad to see the case and screen protector. I can’t imagine it would be easy to find such to buy separately.The stylus was not included – I dug it out because the keyboard symbols on the tiny screen were too tiny for my adult fingers. The banana is shown for scale.When I started it up, I didn’t get the usual, “we need to associate this with your Google ID” with lots of setup tasks. No, I just turned it on and it was apparently ready to go. A basic suite of apps was already installed: Clock, Gallery (photos), Calculator, Settings, Music, Calendar, Sound Recorder, Files, Phone, Contacts, Messaging (SMS), Chrome, Play Store, & Gmail.Instead of having a separate app library, as far as I can tell, there are only the home screens. There are only two home screens, as opposed to the four on my Galaxy S22+. However, it’s plausible that as more apps are added, more home screens will appear. I didn’t add enough apps to require a third home screen.I used the camera, no problem. The photo came out darker than I expected – darker than other photos shot in the same room the same afternoon with the same lighting. However, I don’t know whether that’s a camera issue or a me issue.I accessed my email with the already-installed Gmail app. In setting that up, apparently, the phone’s system did associate the phone with my Google ID, because when I went to the Play Store app, it offered to install all my most-used apps that I have on other devices. I declined as I found it difficult to use the keyboard. (see pictures) However, an 11 year-old friend helped me test the keyboard and said he had no problem typing with his thumb, which is his usual style.From the Play Store, I installed Google Voice. This will allow me to make and use calls over WiFi without paying for another line from my wireless provider. I tested it and successfully made and received calls using my Google Voice number over wi-fi, both at home and at church. So basically it will work as a phone, anywhere the user can get on wi-fi, even without a calling plan.The instruction manual insists that we are to use only the charging cord provided. There’s a sticker on the back of the phone that says the same. I don’t see anything unusual about this particular USB A to USB C charging cable. I suspect the point is that they do NOT want users to use USB C to USB C cables. Those have quite a bit more power throughput, and it may be that the phone just can’t handle charging that fast.
