After flooding the market with eye-popping products, Kyocera Wireless Corp has decided to offer the world something that is simple, elegant and boasts of basic features, the D880ss.

It comes with really huge buttons for technophobes. With most cell phones nowadays able to do everything you ever wanted (camera, MP3 player, voice recorder, video recorder); the D880ss is a back-to-basics phone.

It provides the essential phone functions, has a quick dial list, and has SMS messaging functions. There’s even a pull-out tray at the bottom should you need to scribble quick notes on-the-fly during the course of a conversation, eliminating the “write-on-my-palm” method.

Standby time is a huge 400 hours, talktime is at 180 minutes. Weighing 89 grams and with a 1.3 inch STN Liquid Crystal Monochrome, it’s easy on the palm and the eyes.
