The product is of poor quality, I do not advise.

Attention parents who want to buy this phone for their child: do not repeat my mistake! After reading reviews, I decided to buy a device for a junior high school student as a “dialer” and a messenger. Lightweight, small, inexpensive. Didn't expect anything special, but only intended: 1. Put on a cover and put on a protective screen, because. in the hands of children, everything is “burning”. Well, in the end, it’s not a pity if the device completely crashes, because. inexpensive. 2. I wanted to install a proven anti-spam application (from a well-known company). From experience, even if a child does not call anyone from a new number except mom and dad, very soon scammers from left numbers start calling him, which scares the child. 3. I was going to install a program to block the Internet and install new applications (from the same well-known company). To protect the child from unwanted information and distracting "toys" from learning. Of all the above on this "device" I could not do ANYTHING. 1. When installing a protective screen, the phone practically stopped responding to touch. Simply selecting a menu item became an extremely difficult task. 2. When installing critical programs for me, the phone gave a message that "in order to save battery power" it cannot grant these applications permission to work with pop-up windows, which led to the inability to launch them. Of course, this restriction is not introduced to take care of my phone's battery. After all, why do I even need this charge if I can't install my critical applications? This is an artificial limitation of the capabilities of an inexpensive device. Of course, Samsung has the right to do so. But why do not sellers or Samsung warn about this feature when buying? After this story, the credibility of the brand has plummeted.

Pros
  • 1. Lightweight, small. Not a shovel, not pulling a hand and pocket 2. Inexpensive
Cons
  • 1. Blocked the work of important programs (see comment below) 2. When installing a protective screen, the sensitivity of the screen to touch drops sharply
