There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I had an LG Rebel. The price was similar. The Rebel performed like a cheap phone, but was reliable in making and keeping calls. This is better quality and has better sound quality. I had a Moto G pure. The Moto was very unreliable when trying to make a call. It dropped calls a lot. Super sensitive screen, but I loved the "hello Moto" ringtone.
That they can make a phone for this money is very impressive. I expected a 3/10 but this phone is a 7.5/10.
You don't get what you pay for. You'll get way more than that!
Good about this phone:
- Fast shipping.
- A lot of phone for your money.
- High resolution screen. Way higher than I expected.
- Okay camera, nothing special, but perfect for the low price.
- Supports Android apps.
- Easy to install.
- Easy to set up a number (it took minutes).
- Good touch screen.
- Cheap prepaid calling and internet browsing. Good plans.
- Allows you to import iPhone or Android contacts.
- Bright flashlight.
- Good online customer's service.
What is not good about this phone:
- Slow booting.
- Installing takes long.
- Sounds quality is not that great (but very acceptable).
If you are in doubt, I recommend you to watch Youtube videos with reviews.
I'm perfectly fine with cheap phones but lower your expectations if you plan on using intense applications on the phone. Android 11 is definitely not the best operating system on this phone, as it sometimes feels sluggish and slow. I haven't tried the TracFone service yet, so I have yet to update a review on that. Overall, good for the price, but please spend more money for a better experience.
Overall Rating: 3.5/5 (I put it at a four because the phone saved me while I was saving up for a new phone)
