  • “I bought the Barbie phone and I love it. [...] I bought the Barbie phone for its novelty and as a second phone, but I love it so much i think I might take the sim from my smart ph and add it to the Barbie phone. [...]”

  • “I just purchased The Bar before and off of Amazon you're a successful little bit different than mine I wonder if you got a knock off every review I've seen the phone looks just like the one that I have yours looks a little bit different my charger in cable didn't come in 2 pieces it was 1 singular piece you couldn't detach the cord from the charger also the spot to put the lanyard was at the top of my phone there's a little plastic piece it's kind of 3D it sticks out yours doesn't have that I would also let you notice that my mirror is completely flat it doesn't look like you're looking at a carnival mirror and the loudspeaker is on the left right corner not at the top of the phone like yours I would also like to mention that mine only has one SIM card slot”

  • “Yes i got my daughter one i seen them around for a few months and i was like this is so retro and vintage it reminds me of the early mid 2000s so i brought it today it was actually 120 euros in ireland but with a bill pay deal it was only 70 euro i didnt know it came with a jewellery box.full of accessories it was a nice Suprise the only thing is you cant go on the net and its very hard to use the camera”
