It is still my main phone today. Battery often lasts 2 days. Just great. And wider than many newer phones that are very tall but somewhat narrow.

My US version has no updates. It's nothing to do with the US carrier. I don't put SIM in this phone. I use it as Wi-Fi device. I Will not buy Huawei anyway.
