    Hi,

    Anyone know of a candy bar style Android phone, that has physical buttons like the one below?

    The one below is hard to source and relatively pricy.

    Thanks

    Does it need to be android if you're going for this kind of of phone? If its just a feature phone with WhatsApp you want, you could getting one from China for less than thirty euro.
    Lacking WiFi though, so maybe that's what you need.

    What's features of android would you want to use?

    Oh well, give me an easy life and a peaceful death.

    One links? I doubt such a phone (non Android with WhatsApp for that price) exists?

    So you don't need WiFi or android? Then the phone linked looks like what you need. I don't own it myself so it could be complete rubbish. Anyway this one says it has WhatsApp.

    Good luck with your search, plenty of similar Chinese sites out there you might find what you're looking for. Just remember getting stuff from China is always a lottery and don't expect it to arrive fast, because it won't, and make sure you check, what they are actually selling is what you want because their advertising can be misleading.
