Please help me decide on a new phone.

I'm so indecisive. I need a new phone desperately and since I will be living with it for two years, it is a big decision for me. I do not want a smart phone, I just need a dependable and fairly sturdy phone. I've narrowed it down to these four:

Casio G'zOne Ravine

Motorola Barrage

Samsung Convoy (new not pre-owned)

KIN TWOm (not rugged, but has great camera and can connect to wifi without data package, as long as wifi is available)

If anyone has had any experiences with any of these phones, I would appreciate your input. Thank you in advance!

    I worked for Verizon for quite a while up until a few months ago. Off the bat I say cut the Kin off the list. That phone was terrible. I would say the Barrage or the Convoy. Both of those are really good phones and we rarely had one come back into the store because something was wrong with it. I personally like the Convoy better, I just like the feel of it. It was a durable phone but it didn't feel too big and clunky. That's my 2 cents.

    I can't really give any good advice on that one. We very rarely sold that one so I don't really have any feedback either way on them. I've heard decent things from them from other stores, but nothing first hand.
