Coming from a LG 39c to this is like a huge difference.This hooks up to the Tracfone network with a BYOP plan it works out to less than $10 a month You have to buy a SIM for a buck and buy minutes then use your wi-fi for everything.The phone itself is slick you should get a good flip over case to keep it protected.Wife has Samsung 3 this is as good if not better.Was a Black Friday special would definitely buy another for a gift at same price.

This phone is my second at Alcatel phone. My first one was what they considered a beginner's cell phone and I kept it for two years before realizing that I definitively need more room and power. My original phone came from T-Mobile. However, Best Buy's cost on this next level up could not be topped (Not in to paying a car/house payment for.a call phone). It a great phone with plenty of memory and gadgets. Love it. Only problem is there being enough room to connect the battery charger line end into the phone slot with a cover on it. It keeps coming out so you have to take that part of the cover off to connect the charger. Get pictures and easy to use. T-Mobile transferred all of my data to my new phone without charging me, also.

I've had the cell phone for one year, so far it has been holding up very well, nice big screen for watching netflix, this is my first time using an alcatel phone I hesitated a lot being used to iphones, but I needed a basic phone for my job and it has been great, solid and reliable thus far.
So if you need an entry level android phone you can't go wrong with this one, specially if you get a deal on it!

I bought this phone for my parents' use. A good price, and easy to use. The only problem is after 3-4 month of use, the cell phone had some problems and couldn't be turned on. I contacted Alcatel and they helped me fixed the problem. Overall speaking, I still recommend this product.

I read the reviews on this before buying for my girlfriend, who needed an unlocked phone because her other one was so old it wouldn't do updates and kept getting slower. She likes it, it's not the best phone obviously, but for $37 neither one of us are complaining. I wanted to get her a better one, but she wanted a cheap one so she can drop hers and probably get it wet, multiple times.
The camera pics are nice, even in low light conditions, the screen is large, and it has Android 6.0, so again, for less than forty dollars it was well worth the risk.

Pros: Fast enough for what I use. Has 2 SIM slots - I use one for LTE data, the second for 2G voice/text. The camera can take surprisingly good pictures in good light. The screen is easy to read. Cons: Last security update was in August 2016. Does not support different user profiles or guest. Difficult to fit in a pocket. The screen is not oleophobic and gets dirty easily. The camera's auto exposure can be unreliable and require a few tries.

Wifi Poor and Screen ok - Performance Excellent

The big problem with this phone is the WIFI signal reception which is very poor compared to other phones. You need to be pretty close to the router for reception of WIFI. But the navigation is very smooth even now and I am happy with that. THe screen is very brittle. It got scratches for a single fall and hence needs to be handled carefully. Performace is fantastic and it is light weight and camera is good.

I got this phone during bf period from best buy and I am extremely happy with the performance. It was essentially a gift for my mother-in-law and she loves the screen and the grip of the phone. I wonder many times if I should break away from Apple and start using Android phones - should save me a lot of money that I am currently gifting to Apple

I bought three of these, one for each of my three teenagers. For each one if them this was their first smartphone, so they don't have much to compare them to. With that in mind, my kids each like their phone. It can run the latest apps and takes good pictures. I'm sure a more expensive phone would be faster and the pictures better, but my teens are completely satisfied. For our family, anything more would of been a waste of money. If you dont need the new "cool" phone, this is a great buy.

I bought this phone on Black Friday for $50, so I can't complain about the price. A few months after the purchase, The phone started to spontaneously reboot. Best Buy was easily able to find my receipt, always use your rewards member number because that is how they dug up the receipt so easily, so I RMA'd the unit to the manufacturer and they sent me a new one no questions asked in just 5 days. Cudos to Alcatel North America for such great service.

If you are traveling abroad and you don't want to take your expensive phone, this one is for you. Because it is unlocked it can be used with any carrier.

Well I bought this phone funtions well what can I say its Alcatel its a low price you get what you pay for the camera isnt that good graphics seem to have to much color to them but it operates fast and the main down fall is you can't shuffle your music after finding a song you need to keep it in shuffle for it to stay that way and you can insert 2 sim cards that is AWESOME!!!!!!!

Got this phone for my wife. For the black friday deal it was a steal. When you keep the price in mind this phone does all you can expect it to. No real lag unless you are doing too much. Camera is decent enough. Battery is good and the display is nice. For a cheap replacement phone or a casual user this phone is great.

I bought this phone for my kid. It has good specs..16 GB plus 8 Meg camera for good price. It was on sale when I bought it, so it was even bettet. The only thing I would recommend (this goes for all Android phones) is tp get latest android version as soon as it is introduced.
