Overall experience

This checkout experience was very easy, loved that I was able to use a discount code. It only took two days for my order to ship out after I placed my order. It arrived sooner than I thought it would. I love that they actually sent the LG brand charger along with the phone instead of a generic one.

Skeptical at first but worked out!!

When I first saw Y2KPhones back in 2023/2024, I was very skeptical at first. I really wanted to get a flip phone though, especially one that had Android. The aesthetic fits me perfectly. When the phone finally arrived, I was surprised to see that it was already debugged and in English -- I appreciate the seller for doing that!! The phone works perfectly! It even works on my carrier (T-Mobile in a big city on the East Coast of the US), so I'm excited to start using it more once I finish tweaking it. I can't wait to see if Japan makes more phones like these, or we'll see more of a resurgence regarding these phones!

Amazing customer service

I ordered from The Netherlands. Customer service is great! If I had any questions during shipment I got a fast reply. Package arrived within 2 weeks as promised. The phone came in perfect condition! 4g Calling doesn't work with every provider so do find one that supports this. Keep that in mind. Kpn/vodafone works! Overall very happy with my purchase. A very honest, fun and trustworthy business:)

LOVE!!!

I'm in the UK, I've bought 2 phones from them and they're AMAZING.
The LG x100s and the Aquos 805sh. Both phones arrived quickly even right before Christmas!
When my family ask what I want for my birthday I just send them a link to Y2K phones and say surprise me lol
I recommend them IRL and online to anyone that asks or will listen, I will 100% buy again!

Fantastic service and responsive customer support!

Tracking information was provided throughout the delivery process, I had a few technical difficulties during set up but the support couldn't have been more helpful and got my phone working. Fantastic work!

Scam - phone will not work in the USA 

I purchased a phone for my daughter for Christmas after she insistent about that particular phone and kept on sharing ads with me from multiple platforms. I looked at the website, went through the reviews and felt confident especially as it states right on the homepage they have a 14 day return policy. It arrived, and we went to went to multiple carriers to active the phone of which ZERO would work for the phone in the USA. I was well within my 14 days, contacted company and was told they would not accept a return of the phone as I did not have a valid reasoning. According to them, they say that they clearly outline what carriers works with the phone (none of which are in the USA) and furthermore impossible to find on the website. Total scam.

Thank you for your review. To be clear:

Compatibility – The phone’s supported network bands are listed in the product description. We clearly state that it is the customers responsibility to ensure compatibility with their chosen network. In the product description of the phone you bought it says: “All phones are unlocked, but please check compatibility with your carrier before purchase. If unsure, contact us.” This responsibility lies with the customer, not us, and you did not even reach out for assistance.

Returns – Our 14-day return policy covers faulty or incorrect items only. Network incompatibility is not a valid reason for return as the customer is told to check compatibility with their chosen network before purchase, and this is outlined in our Refund Policy, visible on every page of our website.

Legitimacy – We are not a scam. We’ve fulfilled thousands of orders worldwide, including in the USA, where many customers successfully use this exact model, but who have ensured compatibility with their chosen network before purchase.

The phone you received was exactly as described. The issue is not the product, but that compatibility with your chosen network was not checked before purchase.
