The flaws are few and strengths many of this very simple, satisfying flip phone.

Simply flip
The Samsung SGH-T259 is another one of Sammy's many flip phones, but it's one we grew to like despite a few annoyances.
Sure press
The large dial pad is easy to see and press, and quite comfortable. The default dial screen displays large numbers as well.
Sharing isn't caring
The one case with a cell phone where the adage "sharing is caring" falls flat is when the headphone jack and power plug share a single Micro-USB port. You'll need an adapter for wired headsets.
Camera
The 2-megapixel camera is extremely average; don't sell your digital camera.
