It is a flip phone by Samsung, a fairly recent one and very simple. The camera is also right at 1.3.
Honestly, it is not turned on unless I am making a call or expecting one! Otherwise, the phone is turned off..I need to recharge about once every couple of weeks if that tells how much it is used.
Yes, I find photos fun and do not worry about the quality from the phone. I didn't get it to take the place of my cameras. My previous phone did not have a camera..yikes! My wife has a phone with a farily decent camera even if an older phone and she left the protective plastic sheet over the lens for at least a year..no photos at all.
With this sort of phone use, we could not be typical teenagers or middle-agers it seems. We live in the 3rd world of cell phone use, or less than that. I am one of those people who speaks to a cashier at the food store instead of to someone on the phone while the cashier rings up my stuff.
Strange, but that is what we do.
There you have it... your friend, Tom.
Oh, the phone does have a USB mini plug for the charger. It will charge and download stuff from a computer with a proper USB cable (I do not have one with the mini and normal sizes on it). I might get a cable and try to see if I can somehow open "hidden files", looking for the photos. If that works, I will be in business. It still takes software to get it to use the USB on the computer to download stuff but I believe that can be gotten with the cable.
