    This phone very similar to the s7 at a fraction of the price. Color display, camera, and speed are all great. I would recommend this phone to anyone on a budget.

    This is a good little phone if you want something simple. It doesn't have a lot of storage on it, so you may want to use the cloud to back up any photos or files you might have.

    Phone has all the basic features you would expect from a Samsung Android phone. And can't beat the price Best Buy had when I purchased it. Would shop at Best Buy for phones before looking anywhere else.

    Seems touchier than the J1 but like the larger screen. Took awhile getting used to but could just be me. Not the techiest person but do like it as I get more comfortable with various features.

    This is an excellent phone for beginners. My husband has had a flip phone for years. After much persuasion on my part, I was able to talk him into owning a smart phone. This was the perfect birthday present. This smartphone has an excellent camera which he makes use of taking on-the-spot pictures of our children and grandchildren. NO MORE difficult text messages with the flip phone he is in the digital age now!!

    The camera isn't the best and the 8gb of internal storage is only about 4gb with the system data but for the price it comes with a lot of good features

    I would rate it excellent except there's not enough memory factored in & even the best SD card can't help. So yeah, bit of a bummer.

    I love how easy it is to use but I've had to replace it 3 times! all for the same reason...the picture/screen shuts down for no reason and the tech guys at Best buy can't figure it out and Verizon is of no help at all. I think it's time to find a new and NOT Verizpn phone

    This is a solid phone. It does not have some of the features that more expensive phones have but it has the features that matter.

    Verizon version doesn't have NFC

    I didn't actually get to use the phone, so I can't attest to how it really is. I just wanted to leave a review so that if you're buying this because the Galaxy J3 is supposed to have NFC capabilities, just know that the Verizon version does not, for whatever reason. I'm used to Apple devices and it's very confusing when phones have the same name but different specs depending on carrier. Really strange. Anyway, they should make that more apparent. It apparently does matter what carrier you go with.

    Happy with the phone, it was a replacement for one that got squished. Only complaint is bloatware... Takes up half the memory.
