The "1-Minute" Review

Verdict

If you’re looking for all of the media flexibility, connectivity, and communications options of a smartphone without the actual “smarts” this one is a great pick. 

What's good

  • Long battery life
  • 4G support
  • microSD support
  • Loud speaker

What's bad

  • Price

While technically a rugged phone, it features a few options that also make it ideal for audio lovers.

The rugged clamshell design will take a few drops or dings if you get too into your music, the speaker gets good and loud while remaining clear, and there's 8GB of internal storage — a real rarity in the flip phone market.

If you toss in a 32GB microSD card as well, you could store hours of podcasts or music without worry.

There's also a 2.4-inch display to make reading texts or checking call notifications easy and 4G LTE support should you need to look up directions or check movie times using the basic web browser.

What the Critics Are Saying...


PC Magazine
PC Magazine

The Kyocera DuraXE for AT&T is an ultra-rugged feature phone that runs Android, but you definitely won't confuse it for a smartphone.

Its feature-phone-style skillset is best suited for people who work outdoors and don't need a smartphone.
