    Fair Review for a good phone

    Absolutely love this phone! I ordered it as fair condition but the amount of use out of it since receiving it; was more than enough to make up for its shortcomings. I did receive good condition but it’s functional. It was well worn with a small crack in the screen but it’s nothing major or to cause concern. I live out in the middle of no where delivering came 3 days early and the setup ways quick, easy and painless. I have rather large hands so for it to feel weightless and comfortable in my hand is a dream. The back camera is alright the video quality could be better.
