The Light Phone – this phone is a credit card sized phone that literally only makes calls. If you’re looking for a device that does the bare minimum of calling and texting or if you’re looking for a minimalist phone with some smart features, stay tuned. Minimalist phones aren’t easy to come by anymore, but there are still some traditional phones out on my market. With the advancement of the smartphone, some may be craving simplicity. They can do anything that we can imagine, and our dependency on our phones is increasing with every passing OS-release. Overall, the Nokia 2760 is a reliable and stylish choice for those looking for a more traditional flip phone with a few modern touches.Nowadays, everyone has an Apple phone or Android. Overall, it is a functional device with some limitations in terms of hardware and software.Īdditionally, it may not be as durable as some of the other options on this list, such as the Kyocera DuraXV or Punkt MP02. The device has a T9 keyboard, which can be switched to ABC mode if desired.

It is possible to install additional apps, such as Pod LP and K Music.
The device comes with some pre-installed apps, including Snake and YouTube, but does not have a lot of bloatware. It is unlocked after 60 days and can be used with other carriers, although it is not clear which ones are supported. It is cost-effective, priced at around $19 to $29. The device is available in two versions: one through Tracfone which includes an SD card and one through Straight Talk which does not. It also has a browser, although it may not be the fastest. It has a 5-megapixel camera and a screen that is passable in quality, It supports group text messaging, which was a pain point in previous versions of KAIOS. The Nokia 2720 is a flip phone that runs on the KAIOS operating system. Overall, the Punkt MP02 is a good alternative for those who want a more feature-rich minimalist phone than the Light Phone 2, but it may not be suitable for those who prioritize portability and simplicity. However, it does not have additional features such as GPS, music or podcast players. The device has a durable construction and is easy to use.
Battery life is good, lasting one to three days with moderate use. The device has international keyboards and a decent predictive text feature, but it does not support MMS or group messaging. It only works well on GSM networks, particularly AT&T, in the US.

However, the Punkt MP02 is slightly larger and heavier than the Light Phone 2, making it less portable and more noticeable in the pocket. The design of the Punkt MP02 is similar to the Light Phone 2, with a small screen and physical buttons for navigation. It offers a simple interface with only essential features, calls, texts, a calculator, a calendar, notes, and a clock with alarms and stopwatch functions. The device is known to have had issues in previous versions, but the New version tested by me seemed to work well. It is designed for users who want a bare-bones device that performs well. The Punkt MP02 is a slim and sleek minimalist phone that is designed to help users disconnect from the distractions of modern smartphones.
