This video is years old at this point but youtube decided to show it so here's some FAQs!
Q: Are these phones still for sale?
A: No, these phones were sold a long time ago.
Q: Where can I buy one?
A: Zenmarket! (a proxy service for yahoo Japan which is essentially Japanese ebay. Yes you can buy from there even if you don't live in Japan.)
Q: Do they work in the US?
A: You need a special sim card and for it to be unlocked but yes.
Q: How do I unlock it?
A: They need to be unlocked either by docomo or a paid unlocking service. (Sorry I don't have any I can recommend)
Q: Can I run (x) app?
Q: How do I charge it/ where do I get a cable?
A: Docomo phones have special cables. They sell pretty cheap on zenmarket.
A: These phones don't have access to the america app store so many common US apps are not available for download.
Q: Can I use the internet?
A: I don't believe so but I'm not sure. I believe you need a working sim card to do anything internet-related.
Q: How much do they cost?
A: A fully unlocked one runs about $200-$250, but if you're willing to do the research into sim cards and unlocking, you can get locked ones from Japan for about $20-$50.
How’d you change it to English?
@@nisa9327which phone? If you look in the settings menu an English option should be there anyway
Kinda nerd fact: the phenomenon of Japanese flip phones still having significant market share (and Japanese technology being rather unique to Japan in general) is called the Galapagos syndrome.
Thanks! I always wondered what that meant
If anything, they need to make a splash in the global market. Regular smartphones are boring despite how technologically advance they've become.
@@41tinman41 Exactly. I have and old school taste for many things but i see there are lot of people sharing the same opinion. The new smartphones are boring, unneccessarily packed with features i dont care about that just raise the price( 3 back cameras, 1 cm thick who cares) and they all look same. Just 2-3 colors and screen all over. No Creativity or individuality. Even if using case and theme apps it does not compare with the excitement of decorating it in a way that matches you, trying new ideas and accessories
@@ININ-yc1uf The charms, dude. Back when I had a flip phone, I had charms that came from friends and such. Even some special ones from romantic partners. Plus some people go crazy on the charms and it weighs more than the phone.
@@41tinman41 Exactly. The charms man I didnt want to strech my comment too much so i waited for you to say it
reading mangas i always found the phones so cute! Also, love how these phones are unique to each owner. Unlike now, cases are the only thing that differs your phone from the others
!!
The only reason I want a flip phone is to dramatically hang up on a call
I've always wanted a flip phone when I was a kid(I still want it tho), not knowing everyone would be having "touch-screen" phones when i got older
Ah same, the closet thing I had to a flip phone were those barbie cellphones
There’s flips still out there, I’m thinking about getting the acatel flip 3, it has RUclips and google maps as well as WhatsApp, so you’re not going totally off the grid.
We had a lot of old phones in a drawer and there was like this Samsung flip phone. Unfortunately, all I got was Nokia keyboard phones, bit there were fun regardless
The chocolate phone is a collaboration with Q-pot a well known Harajuku style fashion brand. They mainly sell accessories and some household and stationary goods. As a Gothic Lolita, it use to be super popular in the community from late 2000's to early 2010's.
I remember going through a phone Catalogue with my sister as a kid in the late 2000s, and both of us drooling over it. I'm so happy to randomly come across it because it never left my memory
God i wish i could find that chocolate bar phone online
Search docomo sharp chocolate flip phone
LG Chocolate?
i have the smartphone one (docomo sharp sh-04D) its cute but reaaally slow :c
I want the candy bar one so bad ahh
As a person who can't stop biting their nails your hands are absolutely gorgeous
i was biting my nail while reading this
I always see in anime people using flip phones still ... so i wanted to know if it was real lol who knew 😂😂😂
Lol same here
SAME 😭
still wondering if they used this now in 2020 🤣
Mykronix probably
kaguya-sama lol
i don't know why i am so attractive on flip phones all over my life 🤭
Ikr .....it's just some sort of satisfaction one gets out of them!
@@grellsutcliffe253 i am too. i think im going to get a flip phone and use it as a extra
lol i want one
@@shellybuttrum2838 Good for you!!.. :)
I want the Docomo Fujitsu F-06d so bad the one with polka dots and a cute bow
WAAA I NEED THE ONE WITH CUTE RINGTONES AND SUZI PICS
The McDonald's app is very common in Japan, cause they give coupons and good discounts, so almost every japanese have this app
they're waaaaay cooler than smartphones, even premium 1k flagships look boring nowadays, I wish I could find japanese flip phones where I live :\
my stupid ass wants this for the anime aesthetic
Oh ! I remember seeing those phone in japanese movies. I didn’t know that we, westerners, could buy them. 😻 They are absolutely adorables. It’s sad that they stop making them. Thanks for sharing this video ! ✌🏻
Can you access the american internet with them? Because I heard that it can only use internet thats only available in japan
The pink polka dot is collaboration with Nicoa, a Japanese girl’s magazine :D
It’s so cute I love it
where else could i buy the docomo q-pot chocolate bar phone? also do any of these phones have a headphone jack?
strawberry fraisier The q-pot phone is special edition so it’s tricky to come by. Sometimes they pop up on yahoo japan (which is where I got mine) but they’re guaranteed to be locked. Sometimes people offer unlocked ones on eBay but they’re usually around the $200 price range. Just keep your eye out on eBay and yahoo japan. That’s what I do!
And no, none of them have headphone jacks. They all require a special adapter to use headphones. Or you can just use the built in speakers.
@@therobotspa
How would you go about getting one that is locked unlocked and able to be used in the US?
@@shacorraboyd9026 hey, i had to contact a website called Kyoex and send the phone to the guy in japan directly to be unlocked, paid like an extra 100 something
Hi, do you think the Docomo Fujitsu is still worth buying in 2020? I kinda want one but idk I'm planning on running LineageOs or something on it
Yeah it is worth it. Why not?
dont work, the OS is actually symbian-based and can only run these japanese symbian-distrolike apps.
That pink already sold out😭 i searched everywhere but always sold out
I’m in love with the chocolate bar one
OH my gah blue with dots got my heart. Want it so bad
i have the urge to bite the chocolate bar one... it calls to me... neat
Itd be awesome if someone got the operating system data off of these things and was able to run it as an emulator on a computer :D I'd love to try out that photo editing tool
People like me, would Specially Have to Visit Japan for such modern Flip Phone
these are so cool!!
I'm crying cause my current phone which is a touch screen is cheaper than the docomo flip phone 😭
ok
Omg they are sold 😭
Hey! Just bought the Q-pot docomo flip phone and was wondering how much its worth/how much you sold yours for since the links are gone? I'm in Canada so I have a 3g network that will work with it, and I dont plan on selling it anytime soon. But it's really hard to find so I dont see many listing of it here ever. Thanks!
Does anyone know how to turn one on? I recently bought one and I’m wondering how to turn the power on?
Can they send you info by holding your phone to another persons phone?? I’ve been wondering this for awhile but could never find out if it’s just in anime. 😂
I think what you are saying is infrared, I have tried it on my phone years ago and it works for real 😊
Does ANYONE know what kind of SIM card I could get to make it work in the USA?
probably the japanese one
I wish you good fortune
do you know where i can get the charger for the docomo bow phone? i live in the us and dont know if i need a specific cable ! i'd really appreciate any help pls!!
Okay, I’m late, but can I still buy that Docomo Fujitsu pink flip phone somewhere? 😭💖
Maybe on Ebay
i got mine off of ebay
@@mariangutierrez2561 pls give me link pls!
@@GhastlyAssassin pls give me a link
oh god i want one!!!!
can you switch off wifi or internet for them cuz my mom wants to buy me a flip phone that doesn't access internet
i suddenly want one :
Can you get apps like instagram and twitter on there?
i want to throw away my phone and use flipphones no more social media im gonna be deranged
same
Does this work in different country network carrier?
The camera's no joke! Is this a new model or the one's they used back then?
what do you mean when you say theyre locked??
It means they only work with Docomo's service. (which is exclusive to Japan) So in order to use them, you'll need to switch them over to a US carrier.
@@therobotspa Oh okay! Thank you for replying!
@@therobotspa how can we switch it to US carrier?
What special sin card do you need for it to work in the us?
japanese one
They’re so cute! Just a quick question- where can I get a battery re-celled, and how much is it usually?
You can email or message Bruce on Aibo-Life.org and mail your battery to him in California if you live in the US, and he charges about $85 iirc. I don't think there are any options outside the US, unfortunately. :/
ev thank you! Sadly, I’m in Canada! I’ll go and check it out though
can you use it with wifi
or what SIM card will I have to buy in USA?
Oh my god you got pretty hands
I have F02D and ive been looking for a battery because mine last 8 hrs whether or not im using it.
I was thinking if there's a special battery for ot that'll last more than a day? Pls? Its been a decade.
It sounds like you just have an old battery. A good one should last about a week on standby. I'm not sure about the specs but kyoex.com sells replacement docomo ones! That's the only place I'm aware of where you can get new batteries.
@@therobotspa that's where I got it from. I might order 2 batteries
@@therobotspa my phone is F-02D and its 2012 model. Do you think its the battery or its just old model? I really like this phone despite its price. :(
From where can I get that candy bar one??
How to change it in english language?
I just ordered one and was trying to find videos
i have willcom wx05k casablanca and i cant change it to english please help
What city to buy this in Japan? 😊
How do you charge these? Or are they just like Energizer batteries or somethin'?
They use lithium ion batteries! You need a docomo specific cable to charge them. These guys use a softbank g4 charger, but it depends on the model.
@@therobotspa thanks again, sorry for the late response!
Those are so adorbale
Can they work unlocked in the US?
I want one too
Do people in Japan still use these today?
This might sound dumb but can u call on them or not, and does it accept any SIM card?
I think you need to put a japanese one
What site are you selling them on
Also does the polka dot one have music too?
Yep! It has music too.
@@therobotspa thanks!
@@therobotspa also, does music need internet to work?
Is it possible to connect headphones/earphones to japanese flip phones? I can never find one with a headphone jack T _ T
Yes you can use headphones it’s just not a AUX hole it’s a different shape.
I want a flip phone so badly!!! Love the design! Kids in anime always have them
Do these take a normal sim though ? I want to be able to connect to Australian network
Probably not cause they are 3G phones and countries are shutting down those networks
Why flip phone? Because it can protect screen from earthquake. Jpan has many earthquakes
I wish I could have one🥺
can you have line on them?
I love them so much ughhh 😍😍😍
Are you still selling these??? I can’t find any comments about it 🥲
question! where did you buy these???? i wanna buy it so badly TvT
Nice hands
Okay yoshikage kira
Can we set the language into english ?
Hey I bought the bow one..how do I turn it on?!!
