    Very happy with this phone so far. I find it easier to use than the LG it replaced, it does everything I'd want a smart phone to do, and if the longevity of my old dumb Samsung I've been using 4 or 5 years is any indication, it should far outlast the LG. I also expect the tech support on this J3 to exceed what I got with the LG, especially since we have no way to go but up. Further, I got much better service buying this one from Best Buy online as opposed to the ho-hum attitude I got at the Harrisonburg, VA store.

    I honestly don't understand why people pay hundreds of dollars for a smartphone and high monthly fees for contract plans! This phone does everything. It has a decent camera, web access, wifi, bluetooth, etc and the Virgin Mobile service is great! I'll never do contact plans again!

    I was in the market for a smart phone, but they were all too big. I had gotten an LG, but gave it to my son, for it was so big. I then got another one, but the screen quickly became unresponsive. I found this (the dimensions were smaller). I LOVE IT. I hope it lasts.

    I bought this phone to replace an HTC that I had. Reviews on it were decent. Price was very inexpensive. I'm very pleased with the phone. Definitely an upgrade and priced well below what a phone of this quality is normally. In fact, I bought my mom one after I liked mine so much.

    Great buy for those on a budget. Decent camera and 5 gigs of data for just $35. The phone's also a prepaid type, so there's no contract. Just remember, you're getting what you pay for.

    Really nice android phone for texting, calling, and playing on apps. The camera isnt the best but its also not the worst. Sometimes it can lag when opening different apps.
