Sorry guys.... Verizon will NO longer (1 Jan 2020) support the flip phone....
Now I have to learn how to use the thing...

I do not believe that!
They just sold me a brand new flip phone a month ago
Most likely your old phone was 3G
The new flip phones are 4G and I even get service in China
I think the Verizon guy told you a fib!

Actually, the new 5G systems will start forcing people to upgrade their phones, but I plan on staying with 4G until pricing/speeds becomes competitive with cable access. I'm sure the cellular companies would love for every customer to have a separate account for each of their devices accessing the network. At least with the cable company, I'm paying a flat access rate for ALL of my devices at home.

A month ago you could get a Verizon 4G, apparently they are not sending them out to the Verizon Stores anymore.
This is the one I just bought and it is still on the Verizon site. The only problem is the salespeople do not make any commission on them.
I would call Verizon and complain that thye salesperson lied to get you into a smart phone.

There aren't many of us left we need to stick together

I will have to have one of these. However I did break down and buy the new Samsung Fold last week.

That is the same one that I bought a few months ago. If and when it dies I will buying the cheapest thing they have. I do not need anything but talk.

They keep making phones bigger. I always put my phone in my back pocket. I've been buying Wrangler jeans my whole life. Just bought a new pair of jeans and the phone sticks out the pocket at least 2 in. it was fine in my old pair? Great set-up for a pick-pocket. So phones get bigger & pockets get smaller.
Does anyone know what that mysterious pocket in the front is for? The little pocket no one uses that they could have eliminated to cut cost instead of reducing back pocket material.

Perfect place for a key fob since my new truck and my sling are key less.
Never lose the fob that way.. thank god my wife checks my pockets before she washes my pants or I would be out hundreds of $$$$$

I know the panic feeling when you start the wash and hear a clank and suddenly realize your phone isn't in the pocket of the jeans you have on

Honestly the one thing I would never miss is my phone. I hate the damn thing. I was happy with just a land line. Now I have that, a flip phone and both my trucks have their own phones.
But at least I can wash the truck and not damage anything

Where else are we supposed to place our pocket watches? I used to always carry my cellphone in my shirt pocket, but as phones have gotten bigger, I now use a case that includes a belt clip to (hopefully) securely hold my phone.

I'm with you on that! For a guy most phone calls are someone wanting you to do something that will take away the time you need to do thinks on your behalf that you can't find the help to accomplish! Especially when you have a pick-up truck! Getting really annoyed with the spam on cell phones now!

I never answer until after the 3rd ring
Most all robo calls hang up if you don't pick up by #3

Whenever a business or doctor or whatever wants my phone number I always give our landline number. My cell is for family and friends. If someone I don’t know calls my cell I know it’s a sales call or some other bs and ignore it
