    Affordable alternative that you can customize with 3 different mods. Practically free for $30 with the in store offer. And it comes with 16gb memory, a lot of cheap prepaid phones require an additional sd card because the internal memory can only keep basic apps updated. This phone comes can do a lot for cheap. It does have a awkward feel when ypur holding it and takes times getting used to

    Screen is slightly smaller than my LG but after a while I didn't notice anymore. Crappy crappy service in my basement compared to my last 3 phones but again In My Basement. Lol. Otherwise it's an awesome pay as you go burner phone & I'm quite pleased with the 'newer latest features - my LG almost was 2 yrs, a record for me a notorious phone killer. For less than $100 disposable phone I'd recommended & buy it again

    I manage empty buildings and also renovate them. My previous phone of about six years was voice/text only, no Internet, and the camera was a mere 1.2 Megs. I have been using the Alcatel PULSEMIX for almost a month now. It's excellent. The Internet connections have been flawless and the picture quality of the images is excellent. The upgrade to this phone is well worth the price.

    The phone kept on overheating the back would get really hot had bought this phone for my mother and it would drain the battery super quick and the extra battery back didn't do much if anything it just took the battery forever to recharge am still stuck with it and it constantly overheats on the back of the phone. Maybe I got a dud but this phone is a bad one the extra battery back ruined the regular battery so now it's damaged.

    Has different snap back mods similar to Motorola Moto Mods. But cheaper and not as high quality. Would recommend for kids. Buy a case or risk easy water damage.

    The phone is working very well and I am enjoying it. My only complaint is that the charger is a different size from other Androids.
