    Got this for my 16 yr old. She loves it. Obviously it's not like my galaxy 7 but for the price is an outstanding buy. Highly recommend for a budget or if you need something until a new flagship comes out

    The phone is fine with some quirks in regards to pairing with my car radio! I have to occasionally pair it over again! I don't know what causes this to happen; possibly the up dates that are loaded often to the device! Also, I'd prefer to have a printed manual rather than seek info through the 'settings'!

    Does most all the android system wants n needs. But the battery life is extra long. No more need of charging for WHOLE day. Even w heavy use. Itll take along time to charge but itll last...

    I purchased this phone for my grandson. This is the 4th of these phones that i have purchased. It offers many of the features of much more expensive android phones. The kids love them.

    These phones were bought for a specific application. We are using them as cameras for painters to take pictures to add to files. They were very easy to set up and start using.

    The screen is large and easy to view as well. We all know these units are known for their battery life and we have no complaints in that area thus far! Great phone for a lesser price.

    I brought this phone for my Mom and she is loving it. Especially the fine tuned Zen UI. Dual SIM capability, memory card option, more than all, the comfort in hand when holding.

    The only thing, which is best in this phone, is the battery life. However, if you compare the phone with any costly phone like iPhone, this phone is slow. In contrast, the phone works well if you do not want to install many apps.

    I had an ASUS same model before that started doing weird stuff like shutting down. I got it replaced to another one. I'm starting to regret I got the same one because it is typing messages on its own. I do love the battery life.

    Great phone for an absolutely crazy low price. Didn't realize how many features this phone has. Bought it for my father in law only $125 he is 79 years old and loves it. I think it does as much as an iPhone for a fraction of the price. Plus he is on trakfone so pays nothing for data usage.

    Great price for a phone. The big screen and simple use makes it easier for the elderly to use. We were really focusing on phone and text but I didn't notice any lag in the little time I used internet on it. I would, however; suggest that they double or triple the volume capability.

    I like the storage capacity and it has some good features. I'm not big on the camera yet. I haven't had a lot of time to get deep into the instructions, but the settings I have messed with haven't made much difference. Has a low light setting,but the pictures still look a little granie

    Needed a basic smartphone with 4GLTE connectivity and a smart design. This phone fits all the criteria and more at a very affordable price. The performance is smooth and has a great design. However, this phone doesn't have any expandable external memory (for SDCard)

    Pretty good phone. Still learning it's quirks. One thing I DO NOT like is the placement of the on/off switch and volume control. When I pick up the phone, my hand covers these switches which are on the side of the phone. The volume decreases and I accidently turn it off
