Save your money

If you’re a senior who’s only using it for pictures and calling or one finger texting, it’ll be good for you. But if you are hoping for an affordable score, spend more money and get literally anything else. It crashes and lags just on the Home Screen. I type faster than it keeps up with and I am not a fast texter. Will be returning.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) Phone is bit laggy as initially it tried to download bloating softwares and system updates hence please be patient. Compared to the global version, the drawback of buying in Canada is you need to compromise on RAM ,you get 4gb instead of 6gb in the basic varient and also the charger is not provided. Not recommended unless a spare phone or for kids.

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) This phone works well and does everything you need a smart phone to do at a fraction of the cost of other phones. 5 stars.

I couldn't believe Best Buy charged 60 dollars for data transfer to my new phone. Unbelieveable.

The phone heats up
on August 17, 2026

I don't know why, but the phone heats up so fast even when I only use it for about 6 minutes. I had to check how many minutes I was on the phone for it to heat up like that, and it was less than 10 minutes. I've been busy and wasn't able to go back, but I am planning to return it. I don't know if this is an isolated incident or if it's an issue with this particular type of phone.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
