Great deal for a monthly minimum

My wife once drew my attention to this convenient PrePaid Card, since it gives you 90 days for only $25.00
This is ideal for people who don't (want to) call a lot but want to maintain their AT&T cell phone from month to month on an average of $ 8.00.
I combine this plan with my Samsung Galaxy player 5.0 that gives me free access to the Internet (and pretty much does what an iPhone can do), and thus can call and be connected elsewhere without any of these expensive monthly cell phone plans that lock you in for 2 years.
Being a loyal AT&T customer they upgraded me to a better minute plan, so now my $25.00 card gives me even more minutes.
I've used this card for years, I'm very happy with it and I would recommend it to anyone who is interested in saving.

So far I'm impressed

Well after ruining two iPhones in the past year I figured I'm not smart enough for a smart phone. I use Virgin Mobile as my carrier and this phone will be my replacement for my last iPhone that ended up underwater. So far I have been impressed with the Windows Phone Interface. It was easy to set up and I like the ability to use SD cards instead of paying for memory the apple way. Any ways I've only had the phone for 3-4 days and although I'm not a power user (mostly calls, text and email) it has disappointed me. The camera is a little weak but I use DSLR for my photography so the camera is only for emergencies. For $49 it is truly a great deal. And if I destroy it I'm out 1/6th the cost of an iPhone : )

This is a great phone. I bought it on sale, so it was was a great bargain. It is a touch screen, easy to figure out and use. The camera takes excellent pictures. I was able to go to T-Mobile and put my original talk and text plan right on it easily. My only issue is the battery life. I only use talk and text, no data, and the battery needs to be recharged every night, sometimes sooner.

Excellent GPS and Media Player

I bought this phone to replace a Garmin 3790LMT GPS, it has a higher resolution (800 x 480 Vs 1280 x 720) there's plenty of free GPS apps out there that work with needing to stream off the wireless network. The only issue is the lack of a microSD slot, 8GB can be limiting if you need to store the full US map (3-4 GB) and a few gigs of Music but for $25 I can't complain.

I bought this for my mom. She just wanted something simple to use that was resistant to breakage. The thing works well and has a good speaker for when you want to speak with multiple people in the room. I feel that it should have more options but then again it is a dumb phone. Still I recommend it for anyone who doesn't need a smartphone.

This is a replacement for the exact same phone. Third one. They last about 1-1/2 to two years. Pretty much the same features, with a few added like more ring tones. Inexpensive, pretty reliable, does what we want- makes voice calls and texts. Has other capabilities, but I can't comment on those, as I only use the two mentioned.

Only bought this phone because it was cheap. It does its job well with calling and texting. If you are a person who just uses a phone for stuff like social media or music/video, this phone is good. For gaming and cool apps, this phone is not good. Windows phone is pretty good, just very little third party support :(.

This is a great phone to use for a variety of purposes. Reliable and durable, plus add an sd card and you have an unlimited amount of info to store on the phone. Accesses the net nicely. The only reason I do not give it a 5 is that the internal storage is a bit small, but that can be offset by a good sized sd card.

This is a very nice Samsung phone. I had the Galaxy S3 before but got this one to cut down on cost. The only thing I miss from the S3 is that the Avant does not do screenshots...other than that this is a good quality phone. You can't go wrong with a Samsung product...at least in my experiences.

This phone has exceeded all my expectations. It feels like a premium phone and sure enough acts like one. The screen is sharp and the phone is responsive. I didn't give 5 stars because the battery could have been better. But I suppose that's a problem with all smart phone. 4/5 overall.

that is really good phone for every dollar you spent. the phone response is fast and all basic functions just works well. Browser, Social Network, Email and FM (that is a plus), that is all I need and works well. the back cover is a bit of soft, so be gentle with the phone.

Pretty Good Value For The Money

Pretty good value for the money. Just don't like going to Best Buy every month to get a card but of course you really don't have to do that. And the other thing is: it's not really $35 card because there are taxes and fees added onto the $35 price. Can't ever really win!

I am really not sure what I am writing a review on. This was the sku attached to the Galaxy S8 I purchased. The phone is great and I would recommend it for sure. Best Buy was selling it for 50.00 cheaper than if you bought it from Boost.

Great backup phone

I use this as a backup device. slim design, sturdily built (but has a flimsy plastic back cover), micro sd support, 4G, mini sim, 1500mAh battery, and micro USB. No bloatware and a clean version of Android 4.4.2 and zippy for what you need to do with it.

Bought this phone for my dad as a replacement. Works fine and he loves the volume rocker and power buttons on the back of the phone.
Pros: Price, micro SD slot
Cons: a little slow and laggy but it does the job (calls, texting and web surfing)

Currently I uses it as my secondary phone. Its form factor is nice and not bulky like those 5" or 6" smartphone. Good for a lady hand. Just wish it has a bigger installed storage 8GB only. So I put in a 16GB micro SD to expand the storage.

This is my first smartphone buying for myself and I am just like a kid on Christmas morning playing with all the many apps that come along with it! The camera quality is awesome with the colors being so vibrant! It has all of the features of those real expensive phones and then some! There are still many apps I haven't had a chance to try out yet because there is so many of them. Thank you Bestbuy for your affordable prices!

OK for a "starter" smartphone

First the pros: The sound quality on this phone is GREAT, much better than previous cell phones I've had. If you've never had a smartphone before this might be a good one to start out with.
The cons: As with most smartphones the battery life is short. Almost weekly I have to remove the back & battery because the phone won't turn on. While talking on the phone the screen goes black, so if you need to use the dial pad or to disconnect the call you have to get it to come back on. Have problems getting some text messages - says message can't be downloaded. Sometimes it will respond to the faintest touch, other times I can tap repeated with no response.

Gave to a friend for Christmas who was using a flip phone. I help set-up and did a quick walk through, he was amazed at technology in such a little package. Works splendidly, haven't had any problems. Only negative is that it is 3g.

This is a great little phone for the price. The only disadvantages is the non-removable battery and no memory card. Just make sure to limit your apps and upload your pics and videos to your computer. While there are videos out there that show these phones can survive being dropped in a bathtub, they can not handle salt water! If you do get any seawater or saltwater on it, rinse them with fresh water right away.
