My old Samsung, only 1 1/2 years old, decided to fade out. The touch screen only works occasionally (mostly not at all) making it almost impossible to use. Fortunately, they sell a large number of new unlocked phones here. After looking at a dozen models that were all priced under $150, and wanting one that would work in the States and was 3G, the choice narrowed down to one, this Nokia (the only one that I could find that was 3G). For around $105 I got a simpler, easier to use phone, has all the options that I want including a 3.2 mega pixel camera and an FM radio with standard headset jack (ear buds included). It is very user friendly, easy to customize and enter in all info. The Nokia that I used to remember.
