    Really fantastic value for what I paid. WhatsApp, FaceTime, podcasts, surfing, shopping, all work great. Light years faster than my 5S.

    It's a great phone with an iconic design. I wish they would reuse this design on their larger phones. Does everything you expect and does it well.

    I bought it because the price was good, not that I really needed it. Besides, it might the last smallest phone from Apple.

    At $60, you cannot buy a cell phone with better quality and functionality. It’s a great phone for kids or as a second line.

    This iPhone is out-of -date, but my grandchildren like the size. It cannot be upgraded so it is quick becoming obsolete
