"Just a so so phone."
16 Jun 2018, Ian B.
Product use: 6 months or more
Pros:
Screen size .
Cons:
Takes too long to get through the checks before using it. Icons come and go or change screens. Wished had never bought it. Had an older Huawei which performed much better than this.
Recommend it?
No, this product has too many drawbacks.
