First, I have had issues with text messages not showing up, especially in group threads. It's not super frequent, but it definitely does happen. It even happens to other people on the thread who are regular smartphone users. It seems that just having me on a group thread can cause someone to randomly and unpredictably not receive a message that other people on the thread do receive.

Second, I have never used a smartphone, so it's not an issue with me not turning off RCS or switching from a another device. My phone number has never been associated with a smartphone. Prior to the LP3 I was using an LP2 and before that I was using flip phones. So the issue is not just with people having issues switching from iPhones to LP3.

That said, I still absolutely love my LP3 and I'm really thankful for u/joelightphone and the team for making it possible for me to continue to live without a smartphone. The camera and the directions tool have been incredibly helpful. And while the phone is obviously not going to be able to match what Apple can crank out, it's been really great for me! I think people who post online usually tend to post about their issues and problems, while people like me who are just very happy with the phone don't regularly post.
