I got this device so that it can also be used as my laptop away from home. It could be better with the things that I need to open for my online classes. But other then that, its a great phone.
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight
Cons: Not high def, Did not meet expectations, did not come with a touch screen pin.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great Mini Tablet ... Lousy Phone
on September 4, 2014

I bought this phone as a bridge between my old smartphone and my tablet, both of which I used to carry with me at all times. In that regard, this is a great device. The large screen is bright and crisp, great for reading ebooks or watching movies. The rear-facing camera is excellent and takes crisp clear pictures in good light. The front facing camera is adequate for video calls or "selfies," but lacks many of the features of the former. Processor speed is great, the OS implementation is very stable. Rarely have I had to reboot the device because of performance issues or lockups. Finally battery life is excellent; far better than I would have expected with a device of this type.
The lack of durability is a major drawback for this device. I am currently on my fourth one in less than a year, as any time the phone is dropped from any significant height (and let's face it, we all drop our phones at least once a week), the touch screen stops working. This has happened three times now. I've ended up buying a shock-proof custom case that cost more than the phone did originally. That seems to have done the trick.
The biggest downside, and the one that really put me off this product is that it is a lousy phone. Compared to my previous phone, and despite the fact that I live in a major metropolitan area less than two miles from the tower, this phone rarely picks up a strong 4G signal outdoors, and most of the time get no signal at all when inside buildings, making it nearly worthless for work, as you have to run to a window every fifteen minutes or so in order to get texts and voicemail. This has never been an issue with my phones in the past, but has been consistent across all three replacements as well as the original phone I purchased. Just a miserable signal.
So in all, if you're looking for a "mini-tablet," this is a great device. If you're looking for a mobile phone, definitely look elsewhere.
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, good battery life
Cons: Poor quality, Did not meet expectations, does not get mobile signal in buildings, spekerphone/video sound isn't very loud
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I love everything about this product from voice commands to the camera. The product is significantly larger in size, which is probably the best part. I upgraded to this product from an older smartphone and is absolutely amazing compared to the other.
