    Although I would like to keep up with the newest technology, I can't always afford it. Seeing this Iphone 5s at such an affordable price (even though the 7 is currently out as we speak), I must say it is a bargain. I don't use this phone for the prepaid features - I easily unlocked it through the ATT website. I use it under my Tmobile postpaid plan and it works incredibly. My only issue would be the size, as it is actually really small and since I have big fingers, sometimes I have trouble sending a text message. otherwise, this is a great phone. It has enough memory for what I need and it takes great pictures. It does everything a smartphone that you can wish for. If you are trying to save money and want an iphone, than this is the phone for you.

    This is a great budget iPhone, and it holds its own despite being an older model. It has worked fine, despite for my service randomly shutting off, which was resolved with a quick trip to the AT&T store.

    I purchased this phone for my 13 year old son. He is absolutely loving this phone. It has the fingerprint access & the iphone is reasonable priced. It looks nice. This phone takes great photos. My son has been able to download lots of music & apps. He is extremely pleased. This phone was so awesome, that my 2 nephews has also purchased one. Price is great, it came with an AT&T $45 airtime card. However, I will add I thought phone was activated, but because it was purchased online, I had to go through the process of submitting online confirmation before phone could be activated. However, the issue did get resolved fairly quickly. Just keep that in mind, but otherwise this was a great purchase.

    Bought to replace broken phone. Can be used on your monthly plan instead of as a go phone. Cheap way to replace when not wanting to upgrade.

    This 4 years old phone still work great for the price. I like it best for the compact size. Compare to the SE, it cost half the price.

    Sometimes I feel like when I click on something it won't open up. I mean it does majority of the same stuff as an android phone. I like the fact that it fits snug in my pocket. Camera works good.

    My 13yo has tiny hands...but saved $200 to buy half an iPhone. The SE is the perfect phone for her - best chip & camera, without the size and cost of the 6 & now 7.

    It works, its reliable... 16gb shouldn't be a thing... should have started at at least 35gb. One of the classier designs of the iPhone iterations.
