    the phone has a small screen, it's difficult to type the correct keys. the phone doesn't work that well the screen is either too sensitive at times or not sensitive at all at other times.

    I like my cell phone but have one issue with yahoo not supporting my Samsung Android email and having Yahoo constantly texting me and emailing to confirm it's me.

    It's hard to use, the buttons are too sensitive, and settings(i.e. Parental controls are either nonexistent or impossible to find). I would not recommend this phone to anyone.

    This phone has some issues, but it was cheap so I'm not complaining. I don't like Samsung anyway, so I might be biased. Don't buy this, get something a little nicer.

    It is not that fancy but if you are looking for all the basic functions then this is the one. Cost efficient.

    If you are only talking or texting this phone is ok. But it overheats fast and then you have to let it cool and restart. Not good for teens always on thier phones.

    Its perfect for regular use, checking email, Facebook and decent photos. I got it to use as an online device at a deal, so could not ask for more!

    The Verizon rep that sold me the phone told me exactly what I needed and the Samsung rep was extremely helpful. The class helped me immensely.

    I picked up this phone on Black Friday and got a great deal on it! For the price it still has plenty of power and has a decent camera!

    Since this is an Android, many apps are available. A little confusing to use if you are used to an Apple but it get the job done at a fraction of the cost!

    I quickly realized that the 'PREPAID" phones were more "entry level". So, I immediately returned this item and traded up to a Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge.

    It is a good product for a pre-paid phone. Though the memory is a little bit small, but for daily normal use. it is enough.

    This phone is probably a good little phone...but we unfortunately didn't get a chance to use it as it wouldn't set up with Verizon.
