Yes, I'd recommend this product.

I purchased this Kyocera flip phone to replace an older model that I had. The phone is great but I only gave it 4 stars and here's why. At the time of the purchase the rep told me that the contacts would drop down within 24 hours. That didn't happen and the option to do so was not there. I made a call and I also revisited the Verizon store only to find out after the fact that Verizon no longer provides Cloud service to the newer flip phones. During that visit I was told by another rep that it was because I had the basic plan. How true that is I'm not sure because I didn't pursue it any further, I was to rattled and didn't know if I could believe what I was being told.

Good, Loud Speaker!!!

Connecticut_Marc . 1 month ago

Yes, I'd recommend this product.

The KyoceraXV Extreme+ has THE LOUDEST speakerphone function of any cell phone I've ever had, and I first started using cell phones in 1998! This is excellent, because it would not pair with the Bluetooth in my 24 year old car. The speakers on this phone are just as loud as the bluetooth speaker!

Kyocera Customer Support - 29 days ago

Thank you for this 5-star review and positive feedback! We’re happy to hear that DuraXV Extreme+'s speakers exceed your expectations—especially considering your level of experience with cell phones. While it's a bummer that Bluetooth didn’t pair with your car (the car's Bluetooth version may be outdated), we’re glad DuraXV Extreme+'s powerful speakers helped fill that gap! Thanks again! Kyocera

Kyocera Customer Support - 1 month ago

We’re sorry your DuraXV Extreme+ battery is not performing well. It sounds like it is not charging properly and needs to be replaced. You may qualify for a free replacement battery, but we will need to review your case to make that determination.

Um, why???

Noah . 2 months ago

Yes, I'd recommend this product.

The best flip phone out there, solid item, good quality, no bugs, no delays, good service, but the texting is like the phone hates you, like a deep hate, no t9 or a similar software like the other flips have, it's not made for texting on less you wanna work on your self and learn how to be calm in annoying situations

Kyocera Customer Support - 2 months ago

Thank you for the positive feedback about the quality, performance, and ruggedness of DuraXV Extreme+. When this phone was first launched, its predictive text entry did not work like T9 and we received a lot of constructive comments about how to improve it. After developing and testing enhancements to the feature, we released a software update which enabled text entry similar to T9 which has received a lot of positive feedback. You can enter this text entry mode when in a text entry field by pressing the Left Soft Key and selecting Prediction. Please make sure your phone is running software version 1.300VZ or higher. If you have any questions or additional feedback, feel free to contact our customer support team at 1-800-349-4478, or through our support page kyoceramobile.com/contactus/support/. Kyocera

Not a flimsy flip phone

Jane . 2 months ago

Yes, I'd recommend this product.

This phone was purchased for a person that only has one hand to use because of paralysis. It’s easy for him to maneuver and it’s more rugged in case he drops it. Don’t have to worry about a cracked screen. A decent size for a one handed person.

Kyocera Customer Support - 2 months ago

Hi Jane, we're so glad to hear that DuraXV Extreme+ has proven to be a great fit for his needs and that it provides convenience and peace of mind. Thank you very much for writing this thoughtful 5-star review on his behalf. If you have any questions about DuraXV Extreme+, feel free to message us on Facebook (@Kyocera Mobile). We'd be happy to help. Kyocera

Is it internet compatible, I hear some say no internet so what they mean

Apr 20, 2025

Does this phone have redial capabilities? Also, how do I delete recent changes I have made in Settings? Thanks.

Answer from Kyocera Customer Support2 days

On DuraXV Extreme+, you can redial the previous number by pressing the Send key twice or from Call History. There is no way to specifically delete the most recent changes you have made in Settings, however, you can reset the phone completely to the factory default. This will reset all of the Settings and it will also erase all of your data. (There is an option to erase the SD card, too.) You can do this in Settings > Phone settings > Reset phone. When it asks for the code, enter the last four digits of your phone number unless you have changed the code to something else. Then follow the instructions.

Does this phone have a flashlight

Answer from Kyocera Customer Support16 days

Yes, DuraXV Extreme+ has a flashlight function. One convenient way to use the flashlight is to assign it to a programmable key, like the PTT key. To do this, go to Settings -> Programmable keys. Select PTT key. Scroll down to Flashlight and press the center navigation key to select it. Now you can long-press the PTT key to launch the Flashlight app and turn it on.

Will this phone load the Venmo app?

Answer from Kyocera Customer Support23 days

We don't believe that the Venmo app was designed to run on basic phones, like DuraXV Extreme+. It might be possible to sideload the app, but it may not run well.

Was this answer helpful?

Answer from Verizon Customer Support25 days

Yes, you should be able to download and use the Venmo app on the Kyocera DuraXV Extreme+ phone. Details and specs here: https://www.verizon.com/basic-phones/kyocera-duraxv-extreme-plus/ ~Maria
