Decent budget smart phone
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A lot of people don’t like this phone. I enjoy it so far. Had it for about a month now, I got a case and screen protector for it. It’s a decent phone for the price. If you know how to take care of things, I think this phone will last a long time. I got this phone for 65$.

Solid Phone For the Money
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Galaxy A03s is a solid budget phone for the money. Comes installed with Android 11 though you can update it to 12. It's also on the update list for Android 13 so we will probably get that at some point in the future. The display is solid though it won't blow you away. Standard USB-C charging, standard 12MP camera. The real strength of this phone is probably its 5000Mah battery. Which is insane for a phone in this price range and bigger than a lot of companies put in their flagships. You will get insanely good battery life on this phone and it's probably by far it's greatest strength. It's relatively snappy opening, closing and managing apps. If you compare it to a modern flagship it may seem a little slow though I doubt you will find better at this price point. It's probably on par with flagships from 4 or 5 years ago in that sense. Which is still pretty good if you consider what you're paying for this phone. The fingerprint sensor was probably by far the biggest and most welcome surprise as it works quite well allowing you to easily turn the phone on and off without much delay. The camera is your standard ho-hum 1080p 30fps fare. It will do the job but you're probably not going to impress anyone with it. Still it's far better than most other phones in this price category. And I think that is a good summary for this phone. It's not the best but it is by far the best in it's price range. Which is what this phone is all about. It's not fancy but it does the job of being a smartphone pretty well. A cheap workhorse designed for the masses. Maybe not the best phone for someone who is glued to them 24/7 but I think it would be a perfect fit for anyone else.

Best value phone for $60
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For $60 its a steal. Boost mobile will make you sign up for their cellular service which at minimum you can pay $15 dollars a month for. It is a little slow with infrequent glitches, as well as I find the Bluetooth to not be so good. The battery life is pretty good while charging it is a bit of a pain because it takes long. For $60 this is definitely the best phone you can get, would highly recommend.

Decent cheap phone
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great phone if you want a simple affordable android. Compared to Samsung galaxy it’s slow & the screens break much easier but it costs $50 vs $1000 and it works.

Emergency replacement, great price
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great phone for the price when you are low on funds and need a replacement. My phone broke while vacationing in Hawaii and bought this as a quick replacement. Only downside is it ran a little slow, hence the 4 stars.

Good workhorse phone
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Seems solid. No great lags or meltdowns running Android, perhaps because it has 3 gig of ram, rather than 2. Basic but reliable and a good bargain. Nice display. Good battery life so far (this is my second one).

Works great as long as you disable bloat
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The specs on this phone are surprisingly decent, so it was a shock when it performed out of the box so horribly. I quickly realized that this was because between Samsung and Boost, an obscene amount of non-disableable bloatware had made it into my phone. It was pretty laggy and a rather miserable experience. On the bright side, I found that if you enroll it in mobile device management as a "corporate" owned device, you can tell the MDM to disable nearly everything from Samsung FREE to all of the extra Boost apps that aren't the "My Account" app and then it's a pretty snappy little thing with an insane battery life. So if you're a tech nerd with a penchant for fooling about with enterprise software, this would actually make a decent spare. My one biggest complaint after debloating it was that the microphone isn't very good. For someone that uses speakerphone a lot, that's less than ideal. However, the screen is decent and the camera isn't bad. If you can get the bloat off it's honestly a pretty decent deal. Even has a headphone jack.

Cell phone Patience purchased test,
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The product was fine and good price. The young lady at your front desk who cash me out was very helpful however, everyone else including the manager on duty really seem to be thinking about Disneyland and made my purchase take over an hour and a lot of patience. I like your store I like your product so I just had a bad experience. It happens sometimes. I will continue to shop at your store because this is the only bad experience I’ve ever had.

Ok phone.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got this as a work phone. Personal phone is an iPhone but wanted an inexpensive phone for this so I opted for an android. Not the easiest to use but that’s comparing apples to oranges. Phone works fine but someone must have had the Boost number before me. Dozens of calls received in the first week. Local utilities, dentist and medical offices looking for a woman. Robo and spam calls all day and night. I know this is not on Best Buy but it is a review of the phone and service I purchased from them. If it wasn’t going to be used solely for work, I’d have returned it or had the number changed. May still need to do the latter.

Amazing Phone!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing Phone, I just wished their was more accesories available at the time of purchase. Aside from being extra sensitive upon the side button touch, The phone is awesome. Only recomendation is the port for power can be more user friendly for corded headphones to be connected. I was looking forward to cool camera features as well. All in all I would buy this phone again.
