What are you attempting to find out? I have a similar one going cheap beside me now. Its manual is attached below. I got talked into buying a smartphone. I think the Flip 3 is a blue tick phone where most of the smartphones are not. They are great for making phone calls and taking pictures but not much else. If you have to use the number pad to insert text then that is a real pain in the nether regions.
Telstra is furthest along the path of killing off its 3G networks. In March 2019, it ceased using the 2,100Mhz 3G frequency across Australia, which made a number of much older 3G handsets inoperable. In October 2019, Telstra laid out its timeline for 3G shutdown in Australia, committing to switching off all of its remaining 850Mhz 3G by June 2024

I've got a ZTE Telstra flip 3, very ordinary, lots of glitches, a real pain in the rear end.
I like the concept, however this is a pretty poor excuse for a phone, I'm looking for something of a similar size to replace it that does what its supposed to do.
The contacts screen frequently freezes on a single contact, only way to get it working again is to reboot the thing.
I note they are selling them for about $80 now, expensive at that price.

It will be obsolete.
