I purchased this Samsung Tracfone for my father for his birthday an he loves it. My dad went from using a basic phone to a smart phone, I was a little worried he would have a difficult time using the phone since he was moving up in the technology world. For he was just using a basic function phone, with basic calling an texting an moved up to a touch screen, mobile Web, multifunctioned phone. Samsung is great for beginner users especially pple who may be in the older range, it has a function option to set to a simple easy mode. Which only uses simple functions they select instead of having all the extra software. The phone comes with 8 gb of internal memory as well as being able to insert a larger gb expansion external memory SD card. The camera functions are pretty good to front facing camera is a 2.5* mega pixel, and rear facing camera is a 5* mega pixel. It's stock hardware it comes with is jelly bean fairly new still great for a beginner!! All in all my dad loves it an I would recommend this phone for many different pple

After years of using a dumb phone & a pay-as-you-go plan we decided it would be nice to be able to check Google Maps when we're lost. The Samsung wasn't really a choice - all the other smart phones on this plan (TracFone pay-as-you-go) were by a manufacturer notorious for pushing OS updates that brick users' phones - but I'm very satisfied with it nevertheless. Call quality is good, user interface runs fast & is easy even for my fat fingers, & both cameras take nice sharp pictures. Plus it's easy to turn mobile data on & off to conserve your allotment.

Purchased for my wife, her first smart phone. We've used Tracfone for years. Meets our needs with out paying enormous sums for service we don't need or use. This upgrade in service does the same, offering text and internet for a very reasonable cost. The phone meets my wife's first criteria...right size for her hand. Then easy to understand usage. The Samsung class at Best Buy was a nice bonus for her.

Customers consistently note the Samsung SM-S766C's ease of use and good camera quality as significant strengths. Many appreciate its affordable price and convenient screen size. However, some users express concerns regarding battery life and find the instructions could be improved. A few also point out that the advertised 4G capability is inaccurate.
