Great Basic Phone

The Gusto 2 is a no frills basic flip phone that is so basic that it is almost a throwback to the early days of camera phones. But for those looking for a phone that does nothing but the basics, it will work great for you. The still camera is 1.3 megapixel and there is no microSD card slot for additional storage. Other aspects of the communication features on this phone play well above expectations: the fonts are large, the ringers are loud, the earpiece is very loud and the battery life is beyond belief... making this phone a good choice for seniors. The body is soft touch casing and it feels good in the hands. Overall, the Gusto 2 is the most basic of basic phones, but if all you need is a phone to use as a phone, this one would make a great choice.
Pros: Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

Restores my faith

This phone restores my faith in the wireless industry. I believe a cell phone should be a phone first not a pocket computer with the ability to make and receive calls as an "add on". The Gusto 2 does just that. It has a nice set of features without going overboard while performing as a cell phone perfectly, with ease of use and excellent cal quality. I give 5 stars to this phone and to Samsung for continuing to produce high quality basic flip phones. I highly recomend this phone to anyone who wants a high quality, strong durable phone that doesn't need all the bells and whistles.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, superior call quality, easy to use
I would recommend this to a friend!

I love how it has a speaker phone so I can hear and understand the person I'm talking to a whole lot better. I also love the fact that i can choose my own plan and call who I want when I want weather it be here at home or miles away.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight

Great Basic Phone
on June 7, 2012

For those who are still in the market for a basic phone (and there are people out there who still use them, like myself), the Gusto 2 is a great choice. It feels good in the hands, nice display, 1.3 megapixel camera and great call quality. The phone also has large fonts and loud ringtones, although the vibration function could be a bit stronger. It should also be noted that the battery life is absolutely amazing... the best of any phone I have ever had. Features are very light as this is a very basic entry-level phone... but for calling, the voice quality is superior and ear piece volume is quite loud as well. Includes a mobile web browser and game downloading capabilities. A great deal for someone who wants a phone to just be a phone.
Pros: Inexpensive, Durable, long battery life
I would recommend this to a friend!

Way better than the original Gusto.

I've owned a lot of Samsung phones over the past 5 years or so.. I recently upgraded from the first Samsung Gusto (U360). and the Gusto 2 is Much better.
1. Better call quality.
2. Better Signal in more places.
3. Overall way better than the U360.
Oh... and the Gusto 2 uses the same battery and extended battery as the Gusto U360... Which is great, because I talk nonstop most days.
Pros: Inexpensive, Durable, Lightweight, same battery as gusto u360
Cons: wish it had more memory, wish it had a micro sd slot.
I would recommend this to a friend!

High marks from a previous smartphone user.
on November 3, 2013
Posted by: rufio
I have been on this phone and I love it. I had forgotten just how great a basic phone can be. This one does mobile web, is able to do navigation, send and receive multimedia messages and all with great battery life.
I love the interface on this phone. It's just a souped up flip phone. I would highly recommend this product to someone who is wanting a starter phone or something of that nature.
Buy if:
1. You want a basic phone for talk, text and web
2. You want a phone with outstanding battery life
3. Durability
Do not buy if:
1. You want a smartphone.
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Lightweight

A Good Basic Phone

from Carlsbad, NM
We use this as our house phone and give the number to salespeople, and others we don't really want to talk too. Its basic and is perfect for this kind of use. So my rating are based on this purpose.
Pros: Inexpensive
