I was surprised by how many great features this phone has
But lacking a bigtime basic feature of setting up a speed dial from the dial-pad.
Snappy enough, easy to set up, and the pictures weren't spectacular but at times when my primary phone died it was awesome to take this simple guy out and snap some shots
This phone stopped reading my SD card within a few days and I lost the ability to take more pictures without reformatting the card and erasing those I had already taken.
The camera glass broke and now all pictures are fuzzy and unusable.
It doesn't take very good pictures other than that it is fast
The camera is horrible, it doesn't take good pictures at all
the replacement had the same "problem," but I learned from the web that there was nothing wrong with the phone, it was just a matter of ignoring an error message generated by Amazon's proprietary lockscreen ads during activation
I mainly bought this phone for the dual SIM capability which works fine as long as the second SIM is on the T-Mobile network, since they still support 2G. The secondary SIM will only work on 2
Tried two replacement batteries and none worked as it wouldn't allow me to unlock the phone.
This means that the user is restricted to using a single 3G/4G LTE provider for phone, SMS and DATA (as opposed to the common practice of having phone and SMS on one provider and DATA on a second provider.)
At this point, one of the best parts is that I am not getting "insufficient memory" messages on the handful of apps that I use
Got it it for my nephew (he is 12) because he is clumsy didn't want to give him an expensive phone or reason to be on it 24-7
that it is very thin in your pocket and feels good in your hand (s)
Call clarity is good, the screen is fine and everything works as it should
Bluetooth constantly loses connectivity, no no apparent reason
If you were to buy a replacement phone or a phone for yourself as a backup or to give to your children/ young siblings, this is a good phone to start off to use (and yes it is 100% unlocked and can be used with any cellphone carrier) as well as to
no phone again the screen isnt strong for how it broke the way it did
Other things I don't like about this phone: No easy way to turn on the camera
I cracked this phone accidentally, is there any way that I can replace the item.
THIS phone however, outperforms it every way, even the camera which is not as clear as like the high end phones coming out, still has better pictures than they older "name brand phones" like my S4
and I had to upgrade my phone with the price of airline tickets I was looking for an inexpensive way to have all the apps and speed I needed for my trip
The WiFi would not work and had to replace through the manufacturer
The wifi on the phone stopped working on my phone in the first week of having it.
I know the wifi in my home was fine because I checked it with a Kindle, > 50 MBps
The wifi is very flaky, which pretty much renders the phone useless for 90% of my usage
I liked it despite its mediocre camera (especially for low-light shots), but like other users who have reported problems on various Android blog sites, this one has begun to fail in its usefulness because it will not establish a reliable wifi connection, beginning in late December (39MbPS on router providing 69 to my other phone in the same room with the router)
I'm trying to see if Amazon will replace the phone but having hard time getting a hold of them for an answer.
This phone is an incredible value, and performs at least as well as units costing 10 times the money, and in some areas even surpasses the 600 to 1k$ phones.
i do not like this phone at all it is bad all amazon ads keep coming up hard to answer call when working on text it sucks big time i am sending it back
However, only after a few months and after adding minimal apps the phone seems to crash all the dam time
Terrible phone do not waste your time, after 1 year phone dead...this is a waste of money.
Bluetooth is finicky at best, and doesn't like to connect to many devices easily.
The Bluetooth has SERIOUS issues with car stereo connectivity--it won't maintain it whatsoever.

Because, as they told me, they are a manufacturer and not a supplier, the first thing they will ask you to do is a hard reset on your phone.
Screen freezes often and can only recover by hard reset

Would not boot, had to do a hard reset which lost all data/files (again), and had to recover the OS
