Phone owned for less than a year

I've used this phone for awhile now and can't really fault it in any way. The battery life is short, but I charge it every night anyway. For a twenty Dollar phone with Android 5.1.1 in a manageable size one really can't beat it if you just want a phone to call, text, email, etc. It's a high quality phone for all but constant facebooking, tweeting incessantly, or gaming hour after hour. It's not for that. If you need a good phone for a back up or, like me, just need to make calls, email or text folks it is well worth the twenty bucks I gave Best Buy for it. And it has 2, count 'em, two cameras. For twenty bucks. Takes ok pictures. I use it primarily as a phone though so I really have no complaints at all.
