These phones do not work properly. Not at all!!!!!! Cricket will not stand by their phone sales either. Cant get money back after 24 hours.
My boyfriend and I both bought the same phone. The phone works fine and it’s very durable (I’ve dropped it about 8 times and once in the snow). The only thing I do not like about it is that you cannot download ringtones on the phone, or on the web. It does not have web capabilities and the only thing you can get on the phone is ringback tones but you have to buy them from the cricket website. You also cannot receive photos and there is no speakerphone or voice memo.
It’s a nice phone for those of you who aren’t very cell phone literate or if you’re looking for something to use for talking only.
My boyfriend has this phone. Neither one of us really like it. Like the other person said, if you want it for talk only then it may be ok. It is hard to navigate through to get to the menu. Its battery life is not great either. If you want a REALLY basic phone, a phone for a kid to use or just want to spend the least amount possible then this phone might be for you. Other than that I would recommend a phone with better features.
yeah this phone really sucks. I will never recommend this phone
I have a cricket ez and there is no speaker phone setting but some how it is STUCK ON SPEAKER PHONE, it came on in the middle of a call and now it is STUCK ON SPEAKERPHONE BUT THERE IS NO SPEAKERPHONE! wtf cricket?
this phone f%^$ing suck for the simple fact that you cant get ringtones!! ugh!! f#%k cricker!!
itz ok but it could have sum speakers and could be a little more bigger
Lmao. It’s just a cell phone. Literally. I only use it to make calls and that’s it so it fits me fine lol. I have a Sidekick LX for all my multimedia, data, and texting needs.
this stipid thing doesnt have vibrate so i have to annoy my parents with that damn beep or silent so i miss the texts i get.
I’ve had this phone for six months and just changed to an older phone I got from a friend. Sound quality is terrible. The very worst I’ve ever had. Wind noise is very bad also. The buttons do not respond well and are smaller and therefore harder to operate. I bought this, because I wanted a no frills phone, just a phone. What I got wasn’t much better than a can on a string.
I REALLY NEED TO KNOW WHY THERE IS NO SPEAKERPHONE YET SOMEHOW MANGED TO GET MY PHONE ONTO SPEAKERPHONE. I DON’T KNOW WHAT I PRESSED BUT IT JUST KICKED IN THEN I HUNG UP AND IT WAS BACK TO NOMAL. WTH??????? I REALLY DON’T RECOMMEND THIS PHONE FOR ANYONE UNLESS YOUR GOING TO BE USING IT FOR YOUR KIDS TO CONTACT YOU. GPS IS A GREAT FEATURE BUT WITH THE WAY MY PHONE HAS BEEN I DON’T KNOW IF THAT EVEN WORKS LOL
I bought this phone about a year ago and have hated it ever since. It’s like the people who designed it knew what a cell phone was, but had never seen or used one! Seriously… I don’t care about ringtones but what kind of phone doesn’t have speaker-phone OR vibrate??!! Well.. Technically it does have speaker-phone, but there is no way to use it. The speaker function just sometimes randomly comes on… This thing is more useful as a projectile than a phone.
