    Replaced three year old LG Rebel TracFone with this phone. Google stuff to transfer data from old phone didn't work - TracFone has its own app that did work. Little bigger, more memory, faster, better camera than old phone. Just what I was looking for. My old LG Rebel was more reliable than my wife's iPhone at 1/10th the price. Hope this one is as good.

    I bought this on sale for $40 to replace an LG Fiesta 2 I bought a year and a half ago for $100 (which would have been $200 if not on sale). I fell on my old phone, breaking its screen and rendering it unusable, and did not want to wait a week or pay more to replace it. The new phone's screen is half an inch smaller, its battery life not quite as long, and its camera a slightly lower resolution, but in every other way is at least as good or better than my older more expensive phone. It seems to run faster. I quite like the more up to date Android 8.1 OS. LG TracFones, unlike Samsung TracFones, do get security updates. All of my apps and data transfered from my old phone easily, except for a memo app. The package says that it can only use microSD cards up to 32 GB, but I have had no problems at all using a 128 GB microSD card instead. It recognizes all the space ans uses it just as well as phones that say they can use 2TB cards.

    Great clear, nice size, screen! Takes nice pictures! Still learning about texting in regards to texting to more than 1 person, though it does have easy reply texts that come up to use instead of typing a reply, like, "sounds good!" , "okay!" Has a calendar, weather, lot of ring tones to choose from. Easy set up.

    I'm not much of a phone talker/texting/games kind of person so I did not feel like an unlimited plan was the most cost efficient way for me to go. With this phone I can purchase minutes/data as needed which saves me a lot of money. Tracfone plans are versatile so I can purchase just what I need to keep connected on all levels. The phone is easy to use and has all of the programs/apps that I need. The size is big enough without weighing me down. It is very thin, too. The price was great (about $40). Tracfone uses Verizon network so over the many years of using Tracfone services, I've never had a problem with dropped calls or roaming. I purchased the same phone for my mother but on Straight Talk's program (a sister company of Tracfone). She needed an unlimited plan for talk and Straight Talk had one that was just the right price per month for her. She is not very tech savvy (at 86 years) but is able to manage navigating this phone. Overall, I am very pleased but do wish that the notifications volume could be louder since I have slept through notifications of texts several time. Also, wish it had a notifications visual signal like my last LG phone did since I sometimes am busy at time of notification and then forget that a text came in. It is up to me to remember to check my phone frequently and since I have a pass code, it is a little bit annoying.

    Solid starter phone for kids

    Solid phone, its and LG and this is a good starter phone to start your kids off of. You dont have to add them onto your own plan and the way the phone works they have to learn how to manage their minutes and texts. Or they have to do some chores to earn more. 15 a month for 30 days of service at a time is better then getting stuck in a 3 year contract for an extra line. And this phone is cheap enough to not worry as much about them losing it. But featured enough that its not outdated. If you dont want to buy time on it for a month, its still an android tablet.

    Phone has some pretty good features, fast processing, great price. You'll have to download a ringer thou as the ringer choice is horrible. There is quite a few but nothing appealing whatsoever. The price was the cheapest anywhere that I could find by far. Great bargain for the price I recommend.

    I finally replaced my 10-year old smartphone with this one. I'm not a demanding user, and I was basically looking at 3 things: phone, texting, and camera. I've found that calls are clear, texting is easy, and photo quality is acceptable. The amount of memory works fine for me, but I don't run many apps and I save my photos to an SD card. You can pair this phone with one of the new Tracfone smartphone plans. I moved my service from another provider, and the transfer went perfectly.

    Had to get a new phone (old one was not 4G and battery was shot). This one seems easy to navigate and works for me so far. I only use the talk and text features anyway (also the weather info that came with the phone), so I am happy.

    Easy to set up and use. As good as some more expensive phones. Didn't like the on/off at the back of the phone, but got used to it. I would recommend the LG Rebel 4. It's a great phone for the price.

    I upgraded to this phone from one that had 2 gb of memory. I love the flexibility to download apps and create my own ring tones. I currently use the intro to Led Zepplelin's When the Levee Breaks performed by zepparella. It is very simple to setup and use.

    Bought this to replace a Tracfone LG Rebel 3. This is rated as having a faster processor, better screen resolution and higher resolution cameras plus some added new features. I could not tell much difference in speed or resolution. Doesn't make this a bad phone, but isn't much of an upgrade from the Rebel 3 for me though it may be for someone else. I guess I didn't need the upgrade but that was my choice and thats OK. Having only a 5" screen (tall format without the width guessing to save bulk and price) it actually seems easier to read/view many things on my old Rebel 3 because the Rebel 3, having a lower resolution screen, the objects/text are larger on the Rebel 3 than on the Rebel 4. I tried changing screen settings, but not much changed, Also, the 4 like the 3, has the power button on the back instead of the normal side mounted location. I am getting more used to this location, but I still don't know if I like it and still wonder why the reason for change. I do like the "knock on" feature. I had it on an older phone called the Tribute (don't know if it was a LG) and missed having it. I like both the Rebel 3 & 4 phones and would highly recommend either of them. Someday someone has to explain to me the difference between a $50 phone and a $200+ phone. This phone does everything I need and does everything my friends with their expensive phones claims theirs does.

    Simple to follow instructions once powered on and easy to navigate with the large screen and font size. Having had 2 other basic models of TracFone makes this a good upgrade, especially for the price.

    I find it small enough to not stress my small hands and week old arms. It seems to be fairly easy to use for someone devoid of any tech experience. So far, I really like it.

    The Tracfone LG Rebel 4 LTE with 16GB memory is a very nice, inexpensive cell phone that has all the options I need-call, text, camera, data, any apps you want. It is a little bit slow when turning on but no worse than the previous Tracfone I had. Some of the icons are a little different from the other phone, but understandable so pretty easy to use. I've had the phone for about 7 days and am very pleased with it altho' still getting used to it since I don't use it everyday.

    Aside from the photo quality, and lack of NFC payment support, the LG Rebel 4 has few significant drawbacks. It's fast, beautifully designed, and uses Android 8.1, which is fairly new. If you don't or can't spend a lot on a phone, I highly recommend this one.
