The phone was really slow, the battery doesn't hold any charge- to use it it needs to be plugged in. Luckily it was only a phone for my son so it will tide him over until my contract is up and he can have my old phone. I wouldn't recommend I should have just spent a touch more and bought new. Live and learn.

The battery was very poor. Also, the phone was fine for 24 hours but after that didn't recognise my sim and wouldn't work. I am returning it and being refunded. The seller was very apologetic and agreed to a refund without
