I've had this phone a year and have never had a problem, it's packed with features for the price tag. The battery could be longer but I get 2 days normal use with it and it rarely flattens completely. It's easy to text on and I find this phone does everything I want, and as a teacher I need a lot from a phone. I'm trying to find the same features in a newer one with a larger screen and faster Internet and I can't!
