$499 hell no, max $70

At the heart of the Callback is a MediaTek Helio G81 SoC, with 4GB/64GB on board. A 32GB microSD card is included to get you started, too.

$70 is a bit low but yeah $500 bucks for this phone is just stupid. Max I think would be $150 to $200 just because that's the economy right now. It's not like these kinds of phones are hard to build.

As always these companies are overestimating the power of nostalgia.
