Review: Purchased for my husband to replace a Doro clam shell phone. He likes basics & not bothered with all the social media malarkey! Great starter phone for his needs to get him used to swiping instead of pressing buttons numerous times for a basic text message,as I said old school! He now has access to what's app,which makes it easier for friends & family (some live abroad). He only wanted to be able to access whats app, get online, basic txt ect. For the cost of this phone it's definitely worth it. I'd definitely consider for a basic smart phone back up myself especially for the cost. My hubby is well pleased & it's opened up more access for him too when he travels i.e Google wallet. It runs on a paired down version of android. I'd say it's a great entry level smart phone for younger kids too. UPDATE, 28.3.25- coming up to 6 months usage now and still working fine (fingers crossed & you touch wood). Review: I check my phone a handful of times a day and I have become fed up of the unnecessary additions to high-end phones. This phone has a good processor (MediaTek G36) and Android version 14 Go for all apps needed. The camera does not produce high quality image or video so avoid if this is necessary. A removable battery and a headphone jack are very nice features for a modern phone, you can easily replace the battery if there is a fault and are not forced to go wireless for audio use. The battery life is exceptional, the phone is operating off one charge since first boot (phone arrived with half charge so fully charge it before booting). Overall you will not find a better value phone for today's needs if you do not want to be glued to your phone.

Fast seller, it works and it is relatively fast. It just gets a bit warmer if heavily used for some time. Overall it is fine and expected to be so. Thanks

It would not transfer all details from his Old iPhone I gave up. My son next day took 4 hrs to get it set up and he use to this kind of, I I use to Allple now. It just kept refusing constantly and took ages with google. It would not pair at all with iPhone or iPad. I did all phone contacts that was easy but can’t find away to add a photo of person as can with iPhone. That would even be better for my husband. I put photo transfer to the phone via email from mine, saved to Google photos. But not yet found how to see them. I can only think all my husband will manage is news read and phone calls. App I cons hard to understand, good size phone but bit disappointed re not easy to understand all.
