Senior's Flip2 Power Flip tested vs. carrier limits: Surprising ease, must-activate twist… We were intrigued by the Lively Jitterbug Flip2—its vibrant red casing and promise of simplicity. Setting up the phone was surprisingly straightforward, though its limited carrier compatibility meant we needed to opt for a specific Lively plan. Once activated, though, we were impressed by its straightforward interface and reliable calls. The lock-in felt like a trade-off, but the ease of setup made it worthwhile. For seniors prioritizing simplicity and no-frills communication, the Flip2 shines despite its exclusivity. The must-activate phone plan isn’t hidden, but it’s worth noting: our experience showed no major hiccups, just a clear step-by-step process. The Flip2 lives up to its name—lively, easy, and without hidden catches, as long as you’re in.
