Now this is how one should review these kind of devices, not just for a month of use.

Thank you for your videos. I'm a retired systems engineer and like devices ... that work well without unneeded 'frills'. Last month, I ordered a Light Phone 3 and looking forward to delivery in early 2025 ! .... Jose, Keep up the good work !

Amazing you have used the phone for 5 years. I have used it on and off the past 3 and always come back to it, it is the best current dumbphone, just love the light phone and even more excited about the LP3!. Still remember your first videos you made about the light phone crazy its been 5 years time flies!

Thanks for mentioning what phone plan you use! I have heard other Light users use US Mobile and have been wanting to switch to a different phone company and knowing that this is what you use helped me know it is a good one. Just switched!

Great review as always, thank you. I have had my LP2 for over 2 years now. I use it on the weekends and such. I have looked at other devices, but I keep coming back to the LP2. Only thing on my "wish list" would be better map and perhaps Uber app

I've had it for a bit more than a year and a half. I think calls, sms, contacts, alarm, hotspots and podcasts are my go to features. Directory, directions, calculator and notes are welcomed but not crucial to me. The only thing I really would need is uber but given the battery I wonder if a single day of use with two uber rides would kill it. I got a unihertz jelly 2 just to have uber on it that I carry with me when I need to go out so... I now live life through my senses not relying on pictures/camera to live the moment at a later time when all connection to the place and time has been lost. I still use my xperia 10 II flashed to Sailfish OS which I use pretty much as a lightphone plus uber... but I so like how small and incapable of distractions the lp2 is as compared to my x10II SFOS. Cheerios from Costa Rica.

I hope they will refresh the LP2 with more memory and an usb-c connector :)

Dear Jose, I have had it for two years and hope that the company's latest compromise does not go any further than the LPIII. I am thoroughly satisfied with the LPII. I have a smartphone for Telegram that stays at home. The company should have really thought about making the LPII more accessible (to other countries and languages) instead of developing LPIII to increase sales.

Also, I have three wireless subscriptions with US Mobile ... for $ 5 a month. My wireless usage is basic voice, some sms text messages, calendar, and occasionally maps or directions. My experience with US Mobile (for longer than a year ) has been very good. Great prices !

Hi Jose, for the Light plan for US Mobile is there anything I need to communicate to the support team to change the SIM card? I read somewhere that you need to contact them to make the SIM CDMA-less. Does that still need to be done?
@JoseBriones
5 күн бұрын
The new SIM cards come without issues. The old ones needed CDMA-less, but the new ones shouldn't. Either way, if the new one doesn't work for some reason, their chat people are very helpful and are aware of how to turn on CDMA-less :)

I had one LP2 for 4 years and then I gave it to a friend. Then, I bought the white version and have had that for the past year. The battery kept up on my black LP2 until year 4 where it started to deplete a bit faster. Still a 2 day battery life phone though, so impressive for a little device.

It would have been great but some say it works on some UK networks and others say it doesn’t and some even say it has bad call quality so not worth the risk for me, maybe the Mudita Kompakt will be good 😊

Music is all whatever mp3 you send via the dashboard. Podcasts is their own app with the index from Apple I believe.

Yeah weird it doesn't work here, I got the Punkt MP02 a couple years ago and it works but does not work with Volte calling on any carrier, I just bought a Sonim XP5 plus through bell a couple months ago its great call quality is way better and coverage is also greatly improved over the Punkt phone

What is the gps like? Is it like google maps? I ride my motorcycle and go places and get lost for fun. I want to get away from social media and everything. I only want to call, text, have a calendar, and a gps. Other than that i am going to order one on Sunday. I just hope the GPS is good. Thanks in advance for anyone who replies.

GPS struggled a lot in the first 3 years. They have been fixing it since last year. They currently have 1 update that should fix it 95% and make it very reliable. But they haven't pushed that update. I hope they release it soon 😀

If those are the features you need, that's fine. The Nokia's available in the US don't have reliable messages or podcasts. I want those two features so I that's why I went with the LP2 back in the day.
