Was ahead of its time

Phone owned for more than a year

This phone is ahead of its time, the build quality is excellent, the camera is decent, very good phone that gets the job done. It charges pretty quickly but the battery goes down fast. The phone is fast, even with 30 apps installed on it.

The phone is excellent even today in 2018 it may not have the highest ppi or the best camera but Apple proves that you don’t need high numbers to produce great results the screen to body ratio is not the best but it’s still a good looking phone the battery life is amazing I can easily get over a day with heavy use it just last for so long I love it I’m enjoying this phone even in 2018 I highly recommend it if you can find one for a good price and in good condition

Phone owned for more than a year

After having this phone for an entire year, I really can honestly say that I have no real complaints other than it only having 1GB of RAM. And even then, it's not that bad. But it would help a bunch to have a little more for multitasking and such. Other than that, battery life is darn good (with my use I have not been able to kill this device once since I got it a year ago). Overall, you can't go wring with it. Good job Apple.
