A lot of phone for a small price.
Pros
Ӣ Very affordable
Ӣ Quad-core processor
Ӣ Very bight clear screen
Ӣ LTE
Ӣ Android 4.2.2
Ӣ Highly customizable
Ӣ Amazing call clarity with HD voice
Ӣ Ability to turn off bloat-ware in the settings.
Cons
Ӣ Phone is only offered by T-Mobile
Ӣ Accessories such as cradles and extra batteries hard to find
Ӣ Will probably never receive any os upgrades
Ӣ Camera is nothing to brag about
Ӣ Very light phone
I have been using smart phones for over a decade now and this is the first time I bought a phone that was not a flagship phone. When I ordered the phone my expectations were a little low after all how good could any phone be that is less than 200$ at full price?
When I opened up the box the first thing that struck me was the phone construction. It is a sturdy phone tight fitting well put together, I expected to see something cheap looking that is typical of lower end phones. One of the things I do not like about the phone is it is very light and very thin. It is so light that it will not weigh down your pocket so it is always sliding out of my pocket when I sit down. Never had this issue with my bulkier heavier phones in the past.
The phone its self if full of features. The speed of the device and its software was a pleasant surprise. The quad-core powers it quite nicely. It only has 1GB of ram but that is more than enough for phone function provided you do not down load a lot of apps that run in the background. One feature that totally blew my mind was in the settings the ability to turn off the preinstalled bloat-ware(things like Isis, T-Mobile TV, ect).
It does not have all the features of a S4 but for the money you cannot beat this phone. This is definitely a great value for the price.
