      The battery barely lasted 1 hour, with only the fm radio open. Also the phone got really hot when the radio app was open for 3/4 minutes.

                      Nigerian Customs, 12 Sep 2023i dont think people reading GSMarena are unironically stupid enough to think seeing this phone... moreI bought the phone to install a single app on it. That is literally all I needed it to do. But when trying to login on the app it redirects the browser (fairly common functionality). After login on the browser it redirects back to the app but crashes. Presumably because it runs out of memory. To me, this seems like something even the most basic of phones should be capable of doing.

                          former user of this phone here! this phone is awful. the specs a re outdated even for the release date, the camera quality is awful, the battery was dead after a year and a half of using this phone etc. and yeah, i get that this phone was more of a budget phone, but still.

                                This phone is pathetic, I'd excuse it for the price but there are better options for the same price like the Xiaomi Redmi A2 same price 3x the phone, looks better works better and just better. I'd rather send messages through the power of positive thinking than use this phone. I'd rather send messages by smoke signal or messenger pigeon. This is terrible. terrible. terrible.

                                      Many people write a lot of mistakes about it, the biggest problem for me is its display, it's practically invisible outside, it's hard to detect the display... if everything is set, then the speed could be adequate, but the battery life is another problem. If it's in offline mode, it doesn't drain as much, there might be a factory error in the gsm part.

                                        Honestly this phone is an insult to budget phones even for the price. It takes 15-30 seconds to switch between apps. The sensitivity of the home icon and it's proximity to the spacebar ensures the app closes while typing which is annoying. The phone shuts off mid use and reboots. The battery isn't too good. The camera is grainy as expected. There are significant delays when receiving sms messages (5 to 15 minutes) which is super annoying when you need to receive authentication codes within a time limit. It obviously can't run modern apps like tiktok (never expected it to lol). Apps crash and the clock app even crashed while I was setting my alarm. There are significant delays when making or picking up a call. Honestly in this day and age, a phone like this should not exist and it's an insult to have it on the market even for those that just want something simple for call and text because it can't do that well. Save up a little more to buy anything other than this phone.
