    For the price of this phone. It's pretty good.The first time turning it on. I let the phone do its thing through the wifi at home. Loading up everything, updates ECT.It came with a few apps like Wish and Pandora. A few games.I personally use the phone for looking up stuff on Google, emails, a game here and there but nothing heavy.Once I uninstalled a few apps I dont use and set up my perseverance. The phone works great.UNLIKE 90% of other people who review this phone as a bad phone or it is terrible.It's really now.Now, with the data plan and calling and texing ect ect. I do not have a clue. I ONLY work on wifi using textnow app to text and call.Overall, its a cheaper phone that does what I need it to do.Dont expect a $30 phone to Handel what a $100-$200 phone can do and hold. That's common sense.

    This phone sucks. It does what it want when it wants to. It won't connect to cellular data. It drops very important calls, even if you don't move or are sitting in the same area. It won't let your calls come thru or your texts. If it do we let the text thru it's weeks later, and it sends your call straight to your voicemail but when you check it your voicemail is empty for days. Then ban all of a sudden your mailbox is full.

    The mean problem I had with this phone is I noticed it wouldn't allow me to download certain apps from the app store. There is a way around that by download APK but if you're not electronically aware than it could lead to frustration.

    Lo compre para mi pequeño hijo que rompio su tablet, por el precio funciona perfectamente como tablet de repuesto, el unico problema es con juegos o apps que no estan optimizados para pantallas pequeñas, fuera de eso responde perfectamente, ha jugado roblox, minecraft y similares sin problemas.
