Purchased 2 Flip3 phones a month ago. WiFi does not work on either phone, even though phone says WiFi is connected.Neither phone responds to voice calling or text calling using known contacts in device. On both phones, when MIC is pressed all I get is "Please Wait" or non stop spinning wheel. Two agents have said "these are known issues and management is working on them". So when is the fix coming?
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

New version is not much of an improvement. Bought it for my dad to block unknown calls, which are mostly spam. The Flip3 does block spam calls but not unknown calls, so he still gets bombarded every day. He is almost blind so he cannot see the screen to know that it's not me or my brothers calling him.

The Flip3 is bulky to pick up.I catch my fingers closing the phone. I do not like the voice talking to me.

This is for my 87 yr old mother. Replacing her old flip phone. It’s bigger larger numbers. Talks to her. But she does have a problem with pushing the numbers to dial. She didn’t have this problem with the old phone. Hopefully this improves.
I bought Flip 3 to replace Flip 2 as 2 text notifications stopped alerting me. After a week of 3 same thing started to happen withe text notifications. Also WiiFii Calling does not work.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I really like the Jitterbug Flip3. It’s simple to use, has large buttons and clear text, and the flip design makes it comfortable for seniors. The 64GB storage is also a nice bonus. Overall, it’s a great choice for anyone who wants an easy, reliable phone without all the unnecessary complexity.
upgraded to the Flip 3, but having trouble with it. My location has not changed, yet service is sketchy. Sometimes it works, sometime it doesn't. Very discappointing.
