very good
Phone owned for less than a year

it was good but my internal screen got cracked. you can root it with kingo android root. the phone is highly recomended for cheap buyers. the only big con with it is that it doesn't have an internal camera.

Poor Phone
Phone owned for less than a year

This phone is okay but has major problems.The phone will sometimes lag for no reason and has been known to crash apps (including browser and messaging). I wish had not bought it and would definitely NOT recommend it to anyone.
