      My father bought this phone for me. It works very well even after almost 4 years. The camera was good at it's price. But it's getting a bit slower. Still works very well for light task

        Great budget phone, long lasting, still usable after more than 3 years, got 2 of them at that time (my partner still does not want to part with hers). Just works for simple stuff.

                          i have this phone since 2021, it is a nice budget phone but today the left side of the display is broken
                          these are the consequences of making a dogwater version of the a12

                              Bad phone, when you go to play a game like pubg you will get 20 fps to 25 fps only, but runs smoothly in roblox you get 40 fps and 50 fps depending on the game your playing doesn't lag in most of the games, also surprised that it can run call of duty mobile but only 30 fps or 25 its pretty bad I recommend buying an a34 or an a54 maybe s10
