    This phone does everything I needed it to do. Great productivity , love the fingerprint and facial recognition. Works okay with my Boost plan , although it took a bit for that to happen. I would suggest contacting your carrier before purchase to see if compatible.

    Upgraded to this from BB.. fast services, great camera. Still learning how to use everything but contact info storage seems to be limited. Can only store one #, no b'day or home address. Glad I had a Samsung tablet before phone or may never have figured out how to use it.

    Camera isnt that great especially on the zoom in. It hesitates & sometimes takes horrible pics. There isnt a notification light on the front when its locked. I have alot of dropped calls but that maybe because Sprint sims card.

    I had been using a Samsung Halo, and was over due for an upgrade. This A51 has made my life so much easier and it helped me avoid a contract and giant bill. Met my needs and was within my budget. Would recommend.

    Just bought this phone to replace my S8 that got crushed. So far I like the larger size, and now with the protective case it is less slippery to hold. It functions well, but the battery does seem to take longer than the S8 to charge. Overall a good phone for me.

    I bought this smartphone for my husband who needs a decent phone, but not all the 'bells and whistles'. It's a little slow to turn on and turning it off is a bit of a hassle, but it does what he needs.
