Liked the phone but it didn't last. Screen cracked easily

is a standard phone i dont have a problems with this cellphone

This Phone has many installed apps . memory not sufficient

It is aphone, calls other phones, not a great phone, just a phone

Miss a lot of calls/ texts. Don't know if I'll keep.

It doesn't work most of the time when you try and call anyone and you get your text message hours late.

Pages on the phone freezes all the time. Sounds malfunctions constantly.

Always delays trying to text or make calls. Constantly dropping calls.

Does not keep charge no memor............ .. ....

I used ZTE phones. Then I got this new phone. ZTE is not on this level. 5 stars because side firing speakers are way louder and better especially with speaker phone. 1080p based camera is better with 5mp than my old 13mp. Battery lasts longer and charges faster with 2017 technology. And then the smallest details like turning off individual text message notifications when someone is too annoying. It is the small details where Samsung is ahead. Oh and colors are better and brighter than ZTE.

I'm usually very happy with Samsung products and this one didn't disappoint!! For around $100-$150 range this phone gives you majority of the savvy features of the phones that are up to 3-4x the cost!! Would recommend it to anyone wanting an excellent newer techie smartphone and even those new to the smartphone experience (Samsung has an excellent user interface and with the easy setup mode and user guides- you actually learn all the cool things your phone can do!!) --- wish they made this phone in an edge style or waterproof version even if it meant a hike in the price. Only other drawback is it takes awhile to charge. Other then that Samsung hasn't disappointed me yet!

I purchased this Samsung J3 Emerge in November 2017, it worked great at first, and I have been very careful not to drop it or get it wet as I carry it in a backpack when I skate and wrap it in a sweater. Well, just 5 days ago my antenna died, as in I can not receive calls unless I can physically see a Virgin Mobile tower, and it will not receive a 4GLTE signal or even a 3G signal anymore, and I just topped up and have 2 gigs left of high speed data left in my plan as of writing this, I am using wifi at a coffee shop to write this. I thought originally a windstorm knocked out my local Virgin Mobile Cell Tower, but I had previously downloaded maps of the cell towers in my area and went longboarding to them, no 3G or 4GLTE signal, only a minimal phone signal for calls and texts, so it must be my phone. Anyway, I will not be buying a Samsung device again, while this phone has nice features and all, if the antenna doesnt work then it is essentially a lo-fi camera with wifi. Do yourself a favor and do not purchase this phone, it is a waste of your money, sad really because before the antenna ceased to function I wouldve given this device 5 stars, but now only 2 stars, its trash and I am disappointed in Samsung, and it conveniently happened just a few weeks after the 90 day warranty expired, talk about planned obsolence. Virgin Mobile is a good service and I will keep using their service as they never did me wrong when I had a Kyocera Rise, but this Samsung is garbage, do not buy.

Very amazing product and i cant wait to cheatle it out

Total junk. Dont waste your time or money. There are literally endless options other than this phone. It is inconvenient and slow and poorly thought out. How can a company like Alcatel make a more useful device? I broke my last phone and decided to spring for a Samsung Galaxy! I thought i finally made it. it was more than all my other phones and when i started using it i very quickly felt the value of the phone fall and keep falling. Theres no options? the camera sucks? navigation dosent make sense? theres a period between all of my words when i text? These were the start of the short comings of this device. I am not a novice, ive had at least 20 phones in my life and ive never wanted to post a review for any of them! because they all worked! this is a piece of junk and i hope that everyone considering this phone will see this review and think again. NOT WORTH IT!!!!!!

We had this phone 38 days before it broke and it was not covered by the warrantee! $200 and it lasted 38 days, I would not recommend this phone to my worst enemy.

One of the great things about purchasing a new phone is when it first powers on. The phone that ended up in my hand wouldn't charge, power up, or even flicker. It was a dull, lifeless shell that just sat there reflecting the sadness of a grey universe back at the would-be user. It would be difficult to review the phone further unless it had been designed to throw at feral cats to deter them from entering one's abode. Alas, I don't think that's what this mobile device was made for so that shall end this review.
