This is great budged phone, to keep as a spare or for kids that keeps loosing them. The UI is smooth given the amount of ram. The battery life is pretty good as well. You will get entry level smartphone for price of the regular feature phone

Bringing mother in law into a touch screen from her old (very old) flip fone. Turned it on and it booted just fine. All she will need it touch screen text messages and maybe a browser every 20 days. Can't beat this for the black Friday price

I got this on sale fo $15. Not as fast or as clear as an iPhone but didn't have any problem with netflix, Hulu or YouTube . Definitely worth more that what I paid for.

I got this phone while on vacation because my phone broke and I needed something right away since I was traveling. Though the screen is small, (I'm use to 5.5" and bigger. My motto is go big or go home!), this is a good starter smart phone with most of the features of the more expensive higher models and will get you by in the event you break your other device. Having android 5.1.1 it doesn't have the latest system and I am not sure if it is even upgradable to a newer version, but it will get you buy and I am not going to worry about it because I plan to replace it with either the Samsung S8 plus or iPhone 8 plus.

This phone helped me in a jam. I needed a phone between contracts and for the price this phone was perfect. It is not the quickest but it was far from snails pace. The size was good.

Bought this for my daughter to use when I switched to ATT. Seems to have all the necessary features without all the high end pricing. Daughter is happy with it. She is 12 and doesn't get it all the time 24/7.
Not a bad deal.

Go this phone for 9 dollars for thanksgiving deal, and have been very happy with this purchase. This Android phone with all features is cheaper than most non smart phones.
I was able to add a 64 GB microSD card and do all the things I could do with my older $200+ smartphone. I could use wifif, 4G bluetooth, tethering, maps, whatsapp and all the other android apps.
The camera does not have a great resolution and does not have flash, but for the price that is expected. It would be a great idea for AT&T customers to buy this phone as a backup, in case they have issues with their original phones.

Great phone at a great price. Not bad for a smartphone. Works great for both a primary or backup device. Runs apps and everything that I need it for. Only con is that the camera doesn't focus well in in-app use.

This phone is great for a beginner or someone who doesn't use it all day. This phone is carried daily by my autistic son. My family has a regular AT&T plan with iPhones, but we bought this pay as u go phone strictly for emergency use easily and affordably replaced if broken. We would be able to track my son if he were to wander off. Praying we never have to do so, but peace of mind in case. I am not thrilled with the battery life. I am careful to make sure my son leaves daily with a fully charged battery. Just being turned on with no use, battery life is between 60 & 70% after school hours. The wifi is very good and can internet browse with ease. We haven't downloaded many apps as it is not the intended use for the phone.

It is only good if you want a basic android phone to make calls and text. The camera is not good and is kind of slow. Good if you want to keep as back up phone.

I got this smartphone for less than $10.00 for the Black Friday sale. It's wi-fi compatible. Works great by my bedside for Roku remote, etc. This smartphone gets the job done, without breaking the wallet.
