Not the best but it did its job
Phone owned for more than a year

Fist 3 months with it were ok, but every second after was dreadful. Internet experience is bad, camera is awful. The UI is old, slow, just awful and there no way to get an update OTA other than using a CustomRom. The screen is to small to type and see what you are writing at the same time. The OS can't score me any of the latest games and gaming experience is bad. The phone tought me a lot about the Android OS and since it was my first smartphone, it tought me about smartphones in general. Would I recommend it to anyone, not in this day and age. So glad the nightmare is over. Although, for a low-range smartphone is March 2012, its not all that bad. But technology has gotten so much better and even while I had this phone, I had a desire for all the premium smartphones that were available and I felt at thou there were to many better phones out there.

It's been nice in 2012-2013
Phone owned for more than a year

I got it in 2012 and used in until 2013 and it was my first smartphone I ever owned and I learned a lot of things about android from it!
It used to be a very nice phone back in the day, but now it's just nothing more than a device you can use to browse Facebook or watch videos. Gaming is not possible! :/

Although it is cheap, it is still better than a BlackBerry
Phone owned for more than a year

If you want a phone, for temporary use, than this is the phone for you as it does every basic thing. You can download games and social networking apps on the play store, this is not recommended as this phone does not perform well when overloaded with apps. It will cope with your bear necessities with no problem.
