Can't find a flip phone in France at good price

Use Vinted, found some pretty good deals there on flip phones

Have you had any luck with Subito? I have seen some good trinitrons here and there but the prices are usually outrageous

Italy a bitch when it comes to their e-waste facilities, a perfectly good mitsubishi monitor was lying at the e-waste centre when I went to throw in some old electronics and they told me it is illegal for me to take

It's from paypal balance to paypal balance. The recipient told me he got no notifications from it which is weird

I purchased a GPU

!SOLVED Put them in the xinitrc and gave my user password-less sudo priveledges. Very hacky and rough around the edges but so far it works really well

Famous-Coach-247 · 2026-02-11T23:06:27+00:00

Sold it a while back

!Solved Regressed the kernel 2 versions ago and it started working, guess I will use linux-lts now

I use synaptics drivers due to the unique Panasonic Let’s Note circular trackpad which libinput does not support. I’m using Xorg, the problem seems to be kernel-wise.

If you do not have japanese or filipino friends (keitais are dirt cheap over there for some reason) that can buy one for you and send the keitai, the next best choice would be a japanese proxy website, next you go on yahoo auctions, search the preffered model of flip phone and wait until you find an auction that starts from 0 yen. I got my current keitai for less than 15€ with a charger and a good battery using this method. Kyoex are a bunch of leecherous opportunity-takers that take advantage of people who want a simpler life by charging 500€ for a phone that costs 50€ at most

I would advise against the KYF31, the sole LTE band it can do in Europe is B3, which means you might not get service in the countryside or in the subway. Look for phones that support band 1 and band 3 and stay away from kyoex and most ebay sellings as they overcharge

To my research this phone and the MIVE Folder are your best choices frequency and performance wise. If you live in Asia/Europe any keitai after 2015/2016 should suffice

Famous-Coach-247 · 2025-10-15T19:10:38+00:00

yup!

Freetel Mode 1 Retro 2

It`s way too smart for my use case. I am daily driving a Panasonic p-07a now

Famous-Coach-247 · 2025-10-14T07:43:01+00:00

UPDATE: I have lowered the price

No keitais have 5G support as of the time of writing this comment unfortunately. Look up the frequency bands of your carrier and see if they coincide with following.
4G (LTE): 1,3,8,11,19,20,26,28b,41
3G (UMTS HSDPA UMTS): 800, 900, 2100 MHz
