    Basically i am fan of Samsung but this is the first phone that i was unhappy. By spec it was good but when i started using it got know the defects of the phone. Main voice call. First few minutes its fine after that it started breaking the voice or getting disturbance during call especially when i put the speaker on its horrible. Receiver can't able to hear voice if speaker is on. Setting changes frequently without doing anything. Mobile data automatically switches to on and off. When recording video starting it uses brightness and later if objects moves brightness automatically changes to low and never come back until we press fucus area which terrible. So, with all these i have contacted Samsung Technical support 2 times and Best Buy in person but no luck. Finally i ended this by returning phone back to Best Buy.

    Great phone! For half the cost of a model S, it has great features. Phone is fast, screen image is very clear and colorful. Phone is slim and easy to carry.

    Has all the function, bells and whistles we needed for our older kid. Hard to find a waterproof case for it, but other that this is a great little phone.

    Bought this phone for my fiance in May 2020, it has only been a few months and already having technical issues with the phone! We have a protection plan thank goodness! I honestly thought it would last longer. If it can be fixed simply then I would say it's a decent phone for the price. If it can't be fixed then I won't be satisfied!

    This was a gift to my father. He needed a replacement for his old, bare-bones cell phone. This was a fabulous upgrade! There is so much more it can do.
