    It's ok for a phone, i guess, but nothing special and it has some problems...It's not a high functioning Samsung by any means...

    My son had this phone for a month and a half, the phone was in his backpack with some damp clothes and a towel. The phone was never submerged but apparently moisture got into the phone. I sent it in for warranty service and was told there is no coverage for moisture damage. The cost to repair was way more than the phone itself. This phone has zero protection from water, FYI

    Internal charger is failing. I’ve owned it 2 months. Brought it in for Best Buy people to see what’s wrong. They looked at me like I was too stupid to plug in the charger. The guy tried and got it working. I was able to fully charge once more and now it won’t take a charge again. Gives new meaning to disposable phone.

    This was truly such a mistake of a purchase. I have had it for less than one year, and I have sent it back to Samsung for repairs 3 times. I'm convinced this phone was defective. Terrible experience - save yourself the time and money.

    Facial recognition and the fingerprint sensor failed to recognize my face or fingerprint after they were successfully saved in this phone. I ended up returning this phone. Very poor quality. You can look up this on iTunes.

    Worst Phone I have ever owned. Fingerprint reader rarely reads. Samsung apps bug you constantly and a recent software update requires me to select the cell tower I want to use before every call.

    Extremely slow, not because of tech specs, but because of Samsung UI add-ons to make it "pretty". Returned within 2 days, unusable. In-screen fingerprint reader does work only half of the time.
