WARNING: ONLY THE PARTIAL SHOULD BUY

I only bought this phone as an intermediary while I was researching and deciding what I want next. However, I will get by with this awful device for more than a few weeks at best. If you don't text a lot or type anything on your phone, you'll be fine. Sending text messages or messages of any kind on this phone is like going back to a 2009 cellphone. Autocorrect is incredibly awful to use. You're given a "dropdown" panel with a choice (almost never an exact choice) to choose from, and to get around that you have to click somewhere else and hope that you're still on the word. needs correction. Worse (see screenshot of typing), even though I only use one social media platform, on the one I use, the text box completely disappears when I type anything, be it a comment or direct message. I've never seen anything like this. I literally have to keep trying to correct typos and then hope I've corrected them all. My bank account, which I've never had problems with on ANY other phone, never tops up on this phone either, no matter what I try and how many times. Camera - oh help us, camera. At best they are bare bones. If you take a lot of photos like I usually do, especially in nature - come on friends. This is NOT what you are looking for. Don't think about an increase - the quality gets even worse, and very quickly. And if I just can't find it, I don't see a way to video anything. I'll stop here because this awful little thing has taken enough of my (desktop) screen time and minutes of my life to leave a review in hopes of warning others. I'd say if you're buying as an intro phone for a teenager, go for it. Besides, I would stay away from it! because this awful little thing has taken enough of my (desktop) screen time and minutes of my life to leave a review hoping to warn others.
