It was listed as perfect and it arrived perfect! Bought a byob sim card from Wally world on line for $10. It is an excellent cell phone. wifi,surfing,pictures all functions are top performing. I will not update to the newer Samsung's until they all have removable batteries, water proof, memory card slots like the S5's. So as long as this one holds up it will be in service several years. Phone builders need to make these phones convient for owners to take out batteries,store data on board.

Before buying any airtime, we charged the battery and turned on the phone to see if we could communicate with our WIFI modem. We turned WIFI on in the settings. The symbol indicating WIFI appears at the top of the screen but the actual internet connection is only available at about one attempt in five or six tries. Could the phone be defective or will we have to buy airtime to get a reliable WIFI connection?

Personally, I've been thrilled that tracphone service costs me less then $10 a month, but constantly want to smash the cheapie little Android they sold me because it can't DO anything. I can type three word in a text before they show up on the screen, the phone runs out of ram if I view a webpage with more then five or six pictures on it, it ran out of storage after installing about ten apps, picture are an unfocused blur and performance is so low that games are just impossible. If we can now get a real-people phone and keep the $8 monthly bill, I'm in.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4677003350229363498.post-80234122039728410622016-03-01T21:02:48.008-06:002016-03-01T21:02:48.008-06:00Defeats the purpose for having a cheap service.
