    This item is light, easy to use and is priced at an incredibly reasonable price regarding the superior camera as well as ease of use. Batter life is awesome as well. Will definitely upgrade same in the near future. Give it a try or look up YouTube reviews.

    Good phone, faulty USB-C port

    Upgraded from a Samsung S8+. Good processor, good updates and support, camera is amazing. Only 3-stars because the USB-C port is faulty and of course, it happened after the 1-year warranty. It permanently states "charger port is wet" when clearly, this phone has never touched water, been dropped, or left in dusty or hot conditions. It happened seemingly out of nowhere. It refuses to charge because it thinks it's "wet" even though that it is clearly dry now that it's been over 6 months since the first occurrence. I now have to charge it wirelessly.

    Not a horrible phone for the price but you can definitely tell it's the "cheap alternative" or the flagship phone. Seems to lack ram and regularly crashes

    I went with this phone on suggestion from a clerk there. Its ok, but it doesn't have a memory card slot or a headphone jack. Also it seems to have issues if it gets around 50% full on memory.

    Go With The Galaxy S 22!

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    My first impressions of this phone. Well not that impressed at the $700 price point. Its all just well rounded at average. Everything from camera to how loud and clear the speakers are, to screen resolution and performance. Given that the galaxy s 22 wasn't released that much later. Plus the s22 is better in almost every way for not that much more. The only trade off is the screen size and selfi camera. The biggest con about this phone is the battery life. You might get half a day on a full charge at most. With the brightness at half. Before needing to charge. It only has 6 gigs of ram for the 128gig model. So gaming wont be the best. You may run into hotspot connection issues. Constantly having your other devices disconnecting. It doesn't have a 3.5mm headphone jack. So only a select type of headphones will work. Bluetooth or type c. It doesn't come with a charger box. Just a short charging cord. If you are looking at this phone. I recommend you wait until on sale or spend a little more for the s22. If you really need that screen size. Save and go with the s22 plus. Its well worth it!

    Love the Samsung s21fe. Really didn't want to have to buy a new phone, but my old one's browser was outdated now. The transition to the Samsung s21fe was amaziinly easy. I'm a senior and was nervous aboutgetting new technology, but gephone is very easy to get to know and use. The store associate was great and did all the transfering of files for me. Nothing was lost. Phone's camera great also. Love the telephoto feature. So much better than my old one. Great choice of colors. I got white.

    Wasn't happy to find the phone didn't come with a charging block and it comes with double sided USB-C cable. Staff was able to help me out after the fact which I appreciate. Otherwise, I like the long face of the phone and sleek color. Not a fan of the moving picture, but all other upgrades and speeds are good for basic searching,
