Got this phone after 2 others. 1st was the FREE Samsung Amp whatever, with 8GB storage and no processor, no memory and no fun. It was a worthless phone, lol. Then I fired up my VZW Droid Moto Z Play, which worked ok, but Cricket's network is so different, that my Droid only worked in a limited capacity and would not carry 4g LTE speeds, no matter what. Fast forward to today....I purchased the ZTE Grand X4 a few months back, am very happy with the phone. Keep in mind I've had the latest and greatest phone upgrade, each year, for the last 15 years that I was with Verizon. That being said, this phone is great. Decent screen, good battery life, good speaker, not many complaints at all. Sure, it's not the best of the best, but dang, for the money and for what it is, it competes with my Droid Moto Z Play as far as size, speed, usability, etc. The only way I see myself getting rid of this phone, is if I have so upgrade or it gets broken. Otherwise, I've looked at the Stylus 3 by LG and severl other of the premium phones that Cricket has to offer and I don't think any of the expensive phones are any better than this Grand X4. Sure, they may have some bells and whistles that this one doesn't, but believe me, I'm a techie and I enjoy this phone alot and you'd have to make a pretty good argument to get me to trade it for another phone at this point. Hope that helps someone with a decision. I don't think anyone will regret purchasing this phone - it's a great happy medium for speed vs size vs battery life vs cost.
