Design
AGM M8 Flip
Rubberized corners and textured sides make it easy to grip with wet gloves. It is noticeably lighter than most rugged flips.
Nokia 3210 4G
The candybar shape, pillowy keys, and lacquered finishes (Scuba Blue, Grunge Black, Y2K Gold) feel playful without being cheap. At 114 g it disappears into a pocket, and the keypad is a joy for T9 texting.
Battery
AGM M8 Flip
The 1200 mAh cell lasts days because the phone does so little. Standby stretches to two weeks.
Nokia 3210 4G
The removable 1450 mAh cell delivers about nine hours of talk time and a standby measured in weeks, not hours. USB-C means one cable for everything in your bag.

Instant UI, thunderous speaker (great for hearing calls over machinery), and dependable reception.
