Not worth it
Phone owned for more than a year

If you're looking for a low budget phone i guess it could be it. But it's absolutely laughable internal space makes it not even worth calling a smartphone. Use it to make calls and a little bit of net browsing, forget about any other app.

I don't recommend this phone.
Phone owned for less than a year

A slow, low quality handset incapable of doing what most phones can do. It's features are average at best and half of them don't even work. A ridiculous 1.9GB memory that I filled within a month. Bad for gaming and social networking.

Slow battery life is atrocious
Phone owned for more than a year

*Don't own this phone anymore*

Build quality is okay but I got some marks on it after just light use even on the screen and I never dropped it but the plastic back cover is flawless, paint on the side of the device started to tear away. Reception good, call quality good. Internet was so laggy almost unusable. Music app is very basic but the speaker is okay and it has FM Radio. Camera is great for photos and video recording sucks (240p). It's very laggy and runs an old version of android. Keyboard is fine and if you don;t like it you can download more. Large selection of apps. Display is poor but it's not terrible. Battery is just unbelievable it stays on 100% for 5 mins and then it goes down and after about 15-20mins it goes out. If you had 100% charge overnight and left it without using it it would be 0% by the morning. Gaming is very laggy even on games like fruit ninja and angry birds but doodle jump is fine.
