Best Mid range phone
Phone owned for less than a year

This is a great spec device. I'm totally happy with my purchase. I had a Sammy 9+. It was good but too much data was always used. This phone has a great screen and battery. The price wasn't $800. Wasnt even $600. I stole this great phone for $350.

A Super Competitive Phone For The Price
Phone owned for less than a year

I owned a Galaxy S9+ and after it decided to slow down I ended up buying this gem. I can't tell the difference between speed or task management between the two. This phone doesn't feel like a step down at all and I've had little to no problems with this after 4 months of use. The only thing I miss is the Dolby Atmos speakers and the vibration text, but those are small things that don't normally affect me very often. If you're looking for a budget phone that will last you until the next day on battery and a budget phone that doesn't skimp on features, then I'd highly recommend this phone.
