Phone overheated

morgan159354 . 1 month ago

I received the phone in a timeline manner but the phone was overheating. The phone was even hot to the touch. I wanted to return it and it was outside of the 2 week time. I was out almost $600 because I had to purchase 2 phones within a month because I had nothing but issues with this.

Cassondra . 2 months ago

Yes, I'd recommend this product.

Works like new, does what it suppose to do, phone quality is great as well as the camera. It’s worth the price. I’m enjoying it everyday

Love the phone not the process to get it.

Yoli . 2 months ago

It was shipped super-fast and is working great. The only complaint was not being able to do the whole payment online for the phone and I had to put the cost of the phone to my monthly bill. Then I went to the store to pay it all off and was told I had to wait until my monthly bill was posted to pay it off. Also, they didn't have the case in store so had to but it elsewhere.
