    Default Aspera Phones

    Is anyone using them?
    Bigw have the Aspera R40 Rugged Phone on special for $99.
    All I do with a phone is calls, text & pics, I don't need a smart phone, but I can only buy unlocked phones as I use Aldimobile.
    This one looks ideal to me if the quality is there.

    I had a quick look at the specs for this phone. I'm not sure the "KaiOS operating system" bodes well (chaos?), doesn't sound like any flavour of Android.

    Also, the "huge battery capacity" of 2500mAh is actually tiny by phone standards, so I'm not sure whether it would last the day?

    I highly doubt the pics are going to be remotely ok.

    Cheif tiff review backs up my thoughts.

    Everyone says they dont want a smart phone, but still want it to do smart phone things
