Positive feedback also highlights its battery life, performance for the price, and screen size. However, some users express concerns regarding the camera quality and limited storage capacity. The lack of a flash on the camera is another frequently cited drawback.

    I purchased 2 for my 2 kids and did not second guess. For the price it is well worth it for being a starter phone. I am an at&t subscriber so why not a gophone?

    Not a fancy phone but it does the jobs it is is supposed to do without hesitation. You need to use a micro SD card to store pictures and other large data files as only 4GB of the 8GB internal memory is left for user.

    This is a great phone for a quick fix. My kid broke their phone and use this as a replacement until the new one arrived. This phone is worth the investment.

    My mother was wanting something newer then her flip phone but not an iPhone. This one is perfect. But the way to answe a call is tricky because you have to swipe the dots on the screen and sometimes it doesn't work

    Good smart phone for kids as they have a way of dropping them and breaking the screen or even losing them. It is very inexpensive to replace the phone as compared to a repair of the screen being expensive.

    I wanted to "simple" smartphone for my mom. She didn't need anything fancy or high end. She only uses it for phone and voice apps. Works well for her. Lightweight phone, but ok as it rarely leaves the house.

    This phone is cheap, but does more than get the job done. It's relatively fast, and you can find many case options for it. Really great buy!
