This was a game changer back in it's day. First truly budget phone I came across with a large phablet type screen. Even though by today's standard at 5.7 inches, it's just average, back in it's prime, it was a month the biggest readily available.
Bought it new for $99 at Walmart 11/14 and it's still going strong. Before using bought a bullet proof glass cover and and wrap around case on it. NEVER had any problems, EVER. The battery still lasts great, pics and video have always been great...took awhile for me to use the sport setting to get a lot better motion pics but this phone can't be beat. Daughter wanted one for 2016 Christmas and they were all much more expensive and almost none existent then. She settled for the ZMAX 2. She doesn't like it nearly as much as ours. Only regret is not getting any more updates - on 4.4.4 now. Really this has been a treat to have this phone.
Hard to believe that this great phone costs less than $100.00 before taxes.
It took me a month to find a Metro PCS store that had one in stock and they sold out the same day.
Get it while you can from a MPCS Corporate store, as the MIR (Mail-in rebate) takes about 3 months to receive.
I've had this phone for 3 months and am still enjoying the "Honeymoon" period.
Phone has little "bloatware" and adding Nova Launcher + and Icon Pack such as "Sense Glass" will improve your experience, along with a Lock Screen app such as "Widget Locker"
