Boost Mobile - Samsung Galaxy J7 Perx 4G LTE with 16GB Memory Cell Phone - Black

Was in the market for an upgrade so finding this phone settled that.

I originally purchased the J7 2015 version. It got VERY hot and I returned it the next day. I now have the 2016 Perx version and love it! I switched from a Galaxy S3 that was on its last leg. Much larger screen, hugely improved functionality, and the battery lasts a lot longer. So far I am very happy with it. My only issue is that it doesn't charge fully when on, but it could be my USB cable. I have left it plugged in charging for 8 hours and it only goes up a few percent; if I turn it off, it charges in a few hours.

Bought this for son who had an LG phone that, although it was less than a year old, had degraded to where it would only last 3-4 hours before needing to be recharged and had developed other problems. He was fine using Boost, so I took a look at what was available and the Samsung J7 seemed to be the best choice under $200. The J7 is solidly built, has been lasting him between 1-2 days between charges, has a larger screen, more memory and is working really well for him. Only been using it for a month, but so far he is thrilled with it.

This phone has been good for me. It doesn't have the space I need but can be fixed with a sd card. It is time to upgrade but other than space and maybe picture quality, I am still satisfied 2 years later.

For those interested in the pay-as-you go plans with Boost, this phone is a good option. It offers the Nougat operating system (7.0) with a lot of the newer features. However, being a J series does limit some of what you get - no fingerprint id/log-in for example. You also may have limitations for upgrades when the 8.0 operating system rolls out. Those are the main reasons I downgraded to a 4 star rating. Otherwise, i'm pretty happy with this phone. The camera is actually pretty nice - 5 MP and it allows Android Auto app to run so you can easily sync it up to newer vehicles. Memory card can go up to 256G too, which gives you a lot of storage for music, photos, etc.

I have gotten this phone after my phone completely stopped working this was good replacement for its priced

My previous phone was a Samsung Galaxy S3, so this was a definite upgrade. I wanted to get the regular J7, but I was talked into the Perx for it being the most up to date. I do not regret buying it, it works Well! The camera is not bad and it's pretty fast! Obviously the more data and files you have in your phone, the slower it works. So far so good!

I've owned a LG years ago. I purchased this phone because my memory was completely gone on my previous phone. I didn't want to spend a lot yet have many features. This does the job. I love this phone. The screen is large and it works really well.
