Pocketables

“It’s a great value at $180 and a very attractive phone, to boot. It isn’t flawless – performance suffers at times – but the overall package is excellent for a phone at this price point. If you are on a GSM carrier and looking for a phone under $200 then you should go for it.”

Android Guys

“Considering the $180 cost of the phone you get a handset that delivers the goods in areas that matter to a lot of consumers. That is a large screen, generous battery, and a modern design. The USB Type C port and headphone jack are both welcome features, too.”
