For the phone being only $20.00 it's fast and reliable.

Why spend over $500 on the newest 'trendy' Samsung phone, when for under $50 you can have a decent Android device. This phone is fast, sounds great, takes great pictures and doesn't look half bad doing it. Oh, and the battery life easily rivals my wife's Samsung Galaxy. My only qualm with the phone is the field of view on the display which makes watching movies, especially movies with night or dark scenes, difficult if not looking at the screen straight one.

It took some really awesome pictures when I went overseas and I am thrilled. I got this phone to tide me over until I could get a new galaxy. But I plan on keeping this phone for awhile. It has enough memory to download all my well utilized apps and is pretty swift! If you need a affordable decent phone, go for it.

I did a lot of reading reviews before purchasing a phone for my 11 year old daughter. I didn't want something too advance that could easily be lost or expensive. This elevate rise was definitely a good choice. It has a fast applications switch, long battery life and great sound quality. The camera was not too great but it was good enough. I would recommend this for beginners.

I went looking for a new phone, looked at the Samsungs & Apples, etc and they were really expensive. I previously had a Samsung Victory, which was not that great (first one died in a couple of days and BB replaced it). Then I saw this Alcatel for $50 and I said what the hey. Well this phone does everything I could ever want, way better than the Victory. I don't know why people would spend hundreds more.
