My phone of three years wasn't doing the job missed texts and definitely no attachments... Needed phone J3 performs as expected. Camera and video resolution could be better but otherwise I have not come across any limitations and that's alright with me. I actually do not mind using the phone now.

The only thing I don't like about this phone is the camera. It doesn't play nice with my banking app. Other than that, it's a great phone. Hopefully it will last longer than my last Samsung (1 yr). This is my second unlocked phone, and I will never buy a contract phone again. Love the freedom!

I haven't used my old cell phone often, but recognizing the direction of the 21st century and averse to spending for top-of-the-line phone and big name provider charges, I tried this, Galaxy J3, as my first smart phone and to use with Tracfone. I am very satisfied with it. Have had no problems with calls, texts, email, and internet use. A few reviews criticized the camera, but it has been OK for me. For the price, this is excellent.

I was in need for an emergency phone after my current phone stopped working unexpectedly. I am not due for another upgrade until September, so I just needed something that worked. Heard great things about this phone and it has not disappointed. Besides the basic functionality, the extras it has and the camera it has is great. If I wasn't so intrigued by the newer phones, this would make a great primary phone.

It's a good smart phone for its price. I purchased it for my parents who are not that into tech, they liked it really well. Nice features, camera and touch screen. Nice that you can add additional memory. I recommend it people who are looking for smart phone for less.

The phone looks good and is easy to use. My wife loves the phone. The only issue so far is that you can not be heard on the phone unless you switch to speaker then back to headset. I would purchase again if that issue is fixed or just isolated to the phone I picked up.

It's a cheap, entry level unlocked Android phone. However, it is not sluggish or lacking in ability at all. Everything runs smoothly, looks lovely (thank you, Samsung) and does what I need it to do for the person it is meant for (light phone user). A good buy.

Bought this for my college age daughter to replace an iphone. Its a good medium level phone with enough features, at a fair price. She mostly needs it to call, text, internet, plus about a half dozen apps. She didnt need or want a $700 phone to take silly selfies.
