I needed a phone to serve as my home wi-fi, and this phone was reasonably priced and works very well.

This phone is sooooo slow, I literally get anxiety using it. The only positive is that I cracked the screen and the phone is still usable as opposed to high end devices on which the screen stops working for hairline cracks. Good phone when you're in a pinch, but definitely not a first option...or even a third option.

I bought this phone because my Samsung Galaxy S5 was finally on it's way out. I should have gone with a higher end phone instead because the camera quality on this J3 Eclipse was surprisingly worse than I anticipated. Also, the processor froze up many times. I wasn't surprised when it stopped charging. I'll never buy another phone like that one again.

Picked up one of these for my 12 year old daughter who streams a lot of YouTube videos and music. She loves the phone, I added a memory card as well so she has tons of additional storage. Buy a protective case asap as they do not do well being dropped. Great phone for the money, quite inexpensive compared to most phones too.

It's not a samsung galaxy s8 so don't expect that performance. However, it is surprisingly quick though and gets the most common tasks completed quick enough it is not frustrating.

I bought this as a gift for my mother and she LOVES it. It is crazy how expensive smartphones have become and I think this is a really great product at an appropriate price point.

Good phone for a pre-teen or teen’s first one when the sale price is very low or free. Runs quite slow for internet usage, so I wouldn’t pay much at all for it otherwise.

Samsung never fails to deliver a quality device. I needed an affordable backup device when my S8+ was off for repairs and this made for a smooth transition.

Bought 2 of them for 2 kids: 12 and 13
their first phones
Did a great job, except my son was more rough with his phone and ended up breaking in a year. I took to the repair shop and they said it is not worth fixing it; it would cost more than the phone did. my daughters is still living and thriving. SO it will depend on how well you take care of it
