Terrible device
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is simply put, the worst phone I have ever purchased. And that’s including my basic Nokia from 2002. I had an IPhone 15 pro max that I gifted to my brother and I wanted to try an android device while I wait for the new IPhone in September. I expected a certain drop in quality and performance considering how much this phone costs but nothing prepared me for the disappointment I have since experienced. This phone is severely underpowered with its 4gig ram being incapable of handling even the most mundane tasks. It is sluggish, hangs often, and difficult to type on due to the lag. It is incapable of handling android auto and consistently fails when connected to the vehicle’s display unit. It cannot even handle switching between apps and will often reset the app soon as you get back to it hence switching between apps is impossible. I was tempted to return it but the mandatory restocking fee that is tied to it makes it an expensive affair. I might as well suffer for the one more month and wait for Steve Jobs descendants to save me from my misery. Do not buy this phone unless it is simply for picking up calls.

Great phone for the price
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The AT&T store sent me to Best Buy because they were out of theirs. The guy got me the phone right away, only thing was he didn't know how to transfer my data over. So back over to AT&T. But all in all a really good phone
I would recommend this to a friend Good perks, could be clearer
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve been happy with My Best Buy Plus. The member-exclusive pricing and occasional savings have already helped me offset the cost of the membership. Checkout is easy, and it’s convenient having the benefits attached to my account. Overall, it’s a good value if you shop at Best Buy more than a couple of times a year.
