Over all solid device for communicating.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Issues are the battery temperature gets very hot very often. For this reason it's screen durability is in fact not durable. The screen had cracks around the frame without dropping or incident of cause. Battery life I'd rate in the middle because it's great ability to charge above average and very fast, at the same time it's battery tends to over heat effecting the touch screen sensory sensitivity. It's battery life is average but consistent to holding a charge from a full battery to 0% for up to 4to6 hours. It can last longer if it's not used often . When I'm not roaming to ping the 5g it's very smooth, but this truly i has what impacts this device to a 3 out of 5 stars because of the simple fact of liability of circumstances liability to the hope that in a turbulent whether or storms My 5g stays in roaming. I've spent up to hrs on the phone with 2 carriers to discover it is actually the detailed devices flaw and not do much the services rendered. Truthfully was extremely looking forward to this device when I bought it new . I've gotten rather used to the screens webbing because of the battery temperature effects impacted this blemish within the first couple days of purchase. It was already switched in one swap do to the exact same effect .
