Alcatel 1 (16GB) 5.0" Full View Display, Removable Battery, FM Radio, Dual SIM GSM Unlocked US & Global 4G LTE International Version 5033E (Bluish Black)

I needed a second phone, with mid range specs to test my app with and answer incoming calls and texts for my company from customers and clients. I wasnt expecting much. Its got a gig of RAM and 16 gb of storage. It's compatible with TextNow and that's what I needed. Battery life is solid. Performance isnt the best but again, this isnt my Samsung Galaxy and I expected that. The camera isnt good either, except for posting pictures of goods to sell online for stuff like Amazon or Ebay. This little Alcatel delivers, and lets me be a full time Florida man property owner and business owner any time anywhere. Having 2 phones in public sure makes me feel cool too.

Its a phone ... lol its slow but for the most part it works I bought it as an emergency phone to carry in my purse. Works with Tello mobile only thing about the phone is some people recieved a case and I did not

At first blush and high ratings, it seemed OK. On day 30 the battery would not charge so I did what most ordinary customers do... tried another charging cable that I knew worked and another charging source I also knew it to be operable. Alas, it did not charge. So I called Amazon Customer Service (you know the new customer-centric service!!!)n they would not budge. THE POLICY IS 30 DAYS UPON RECEIPT....NOT WHEN IT IS SHIPPED 30 DAYS. i AM AN OLD 72yrs and disabled with all the carnage of 3 Purple Hearts, 2 Navy Cross's and The Medal of Honor presented to me by the President of the Republic of S. Vietnam and a host of others besides being captured by the Khmer Rough. I do not lie nor attempt to get something for nothing... it is simply an oath I learned at the Naval Academy. I was treated like a wounded dog. Amazon said they would not honor my request due to their policy of sticking to 30 day product warranty policy. So now I have to buy the 3rd phone within a year and buy the 2 year warranty for another $14 on a cheap phone. Go figure. Yep, sure feels like Customer-centric service. I have a limited budget and am tired of it all so we can buy more Chinese stuff. Finally, after an hour with this clown and sorry excuse for customer service, I finally asked for a 2-tier up manager who had to read the entire thread from the beginning. My hands are totally numb and I suffer from Associative Disorder which causes me to look at one key and type another (too many concussions). The guy even questioned the spelling of my words!! I think he thought he could wear me out like a dishcloth. Nope, didn't happen. After a very long hour, the manager finally gave me my money back. I really was uncomfortable and asked for an apology for treating a disabled Vet with such disrespect and disdain for the elderly. A major fubar and a sad day for Amazon. Shame shame shame. Disgusting corporate customer-centrics for my money and they did not apologize. Lt. Commander, U.S.N. name witheld

Item arrived on time, I love the size & it’s reasonably priced for a dual sim unlocked phone. However, I noticed that the global time feature does not work & the battery drains fast, so it might be a good idea to include an extra battery in your purchase or hopefully the manufacturer will consider selling it w/ a spare battery. Calls kept going to voicemail instead of ringing. I returned the phone for replacement of the same. If the replacement has the same defects, then I will have to return it & look for another unlocked dual sim smartphone & change my rating. I’m hoping that it’s just the one I got that’s defective. Replacement arrived much earlier than originally stated. The global time on the replacement works this time, however, it still keeps on going to Voicemail. If I'm unable to make this ring w/ the help of IT support, this phone is going back again bec. it's important not to miss a call especially when it's important.

It is alright if you want a phone for only talking. If you download programs to use on it it lags and goes slow. Good basic phone for talking and that is all.

This phone arrived in new condition and ran the older software of the Google system of programs. After running some lengthy updates, the system was able to run the modern version of the Google Play Store, which was necessary to access any applications linked to my Google Account. I can attest that this phone runs as expected, once all of the Google Play updates and individual application updates were installed. I have used the camera of this phone to record an event from a distance of about 50 feet, during the Night. The persons were visible, but this phone's camera is incapable of zooming close, so detailed features were not possible to capture, from the distance under that specific lighting. It did, however, function as expected, with the camera operating in a similar manner to other phones of the same quality. I had no trouble accessing the cell service associated with my previous T-Mobile Network phone, once I installed the SIM card from the old phone to this one. This allowed me to access my cell service without the need to contact my cell phone provider. I can send/receive text messages and make/receive phone calls without difficulty. The phone has adequate processing speed to utilize Public Wi-Fi hotspots without difficulty. Overall, I am very impressed and approve of the quality and function of this phone, especially for the price tag.

Bueno

Lo compré para tener un teléfono de reserva para cada miembro de mi familia. Es mejor que cualquier otro producto del mismo precio y El vendedor me dio un excelente servicio

Does all the smart phone stuff for a fraction of the price of the high end products. Don't expect the performance of an iphone or a Galaxy. This is an Android equipped phone that does it all but with some compromise of speed and screen/camera quality; - at a very low price! If you understand that, you will find this a highly functional, well built product at a bargain price. Spend a bit more if you want something with a good camera, this one is very basic.

Very slow

Es un buen celular de 5 pulgadas algo pequeño, sirve muy bien para cosas básicas, está desbloqueado para cualquier compañía y llega totalmente nuevo y sellado. Lo recomiendo.

Esta marca me gusta porque a pesar de ser modelo económico sus fotos tienen prestigio de tener buena calidad.
