Kyocera Hydro Plus (Cricket Wireless) review: Inexpensive and waterproof, but glacially slow

With five Hydro devices currently under its belt, Kyocera is no stranger to making waterproof handsets. Ranging from entry-level to midtier , all the Hydro smartphones can be submerged under three feet of water for up to 30 minutes and keep on ticking.

The budget-friendly Kyocera Hydro Plus can survive a good dunk in the pool and comes with Cricket's signature music subscription service.

The Hydro Plus runs the dated Android 4.0 OS, makes mediocre calls, and clocks slow network speeds, even for 3G.

Though the Kyocera Hydro Plus is an inexpensive water-resistant phone with an included music service, skip it for better and even cheaper splash-proof alternatives.

DuraXV

To put it simply the DuraXV on Verizon is a really great flip phone. Long battery life, excellent call quality, and tough. It's way better than the Casio's and it's what the Samsung Convoy's should have been.
