I'm looking for a good Flip phone (on a sprint plan) I was told TAG can "tag" the Alcatel go flip or the Coolpad Snap (tmoilbe)

does anyone have experience with either, or know which one is better?

also does anyone know what TAG does to the phone? do they block all data - like does it also prevent you from receiving picture messages.

Any insight would be appreciated..

I have an old Kyocera that I love. I think it's model E4281.
I doubt sprint sells them though and they warned me it may stop being compatible at some point. I had to call twice to get it activated since it works with an E-sim on their end and not an actual sim card that you insert.
It's very durable amd works for what I need well.

Oh,I heard of that one the Dura I think they call it. can you get the browsing /internet capability removed? and can you still get picture text or group messages?

Not sure about group texts
I don't get picture texts but I never activated Sprint Connect on it so that may be why or maybe the phone just doesn't have that ability I am not sure.
I never used it for data but not sure if it can officially block data or not. Good luck
