Yes, I'd recommend this product.
I didn't open the package and activate the phone.
My Kyocera Duraforce 2 came back to life and is still working well.
I prefer the Duraforce 2 because it is durable and well-protected against case and screen damage without installing protective case and display covers.

The phone is fine, but the process of getting the phone was absolutely horrible
Both Verizon and Asurion are at fault. Very very poor customer service from both.

Horrible battery

Dugsphins . 1 year ago
Bought this 2 years ago and it is the worse samsung phone I have ever had and I have had samsung phones for 20 years. The battery needs charged daily and I do very little with my phone. It also takes hours to charge. The Camara is not high quality and I wish that I bought the ultra like my wife. That is a way better phone because it doesn't have these problems.

Not even a month in and I HATE it. The battery life is awful. I cannot use my GPS while it's plugged in to stay charged. I will have almost 30% by lunch time without even being on it.

100% WORTH LEARNING /HONING ALL THE FEATURES!!
4 out of 5 rating
DanicaNunya . 1 year ago
I've had this phone for 1½ yrs and am still learning/figuring out how to utilize all the features. This phone by far takes better pictures than any other phone I've owned. I love the option to switch to pro camera.
The fact that you can link to a compatible smart T.V. to get a computer, is 100% worth every dime you spend!
