Was forced to buy a new phone as they are doing away with the former phone I had. (ZTE Valet). The online chat person hleped me pick this phone as it was their recommendation based upon I just wanted a phone for calls, few texts and a long battery life. I only check this phones messages about once a month. We use it for a house phone and sales calls. This phone is super easy to use, the setup was incredibly simple. Perfection.
I bought this phone because I needed to replace my LG phone. Like the size and how light it is compared to other phones. Not too bulky and heavy. Takes good pictures and sound is clear. Has a lot of features that I'm still learning to use. Glad I went this this brand.
I bought this Samsung Galaxy J3 Orbit smartphone to replace my trusty and excellent Samsung Galaxy J3 Luna Pro... the Orbit is an upgrade in a number of areas, including a faster octa core processor, more RAM at 2GB versus 1.5Gb and better cameras giving us 8MP and 5MP shooters versus the Luna Pro's 5/2 cameras. Overall, I like the phone.. it's fast, comes with Oreo 8.0 and takes good pictures,..clearer pictures than the Luna Pro. The call quality is good, and with the voLTE switch on in mobile networks, it has HD Voice with sounds great. I like the 5 inch screen size it has just like the Luna Pro since for me this is easier to carrier than the increasingly popular 5.5 inch size. My only complaint is the screen is a little sensitive so I sometimes end up touching it with parts of my hand while holding it which changes the home screen mode. I'm making adjustments to deal with it. I've only had the Orbit a few days now so time will tell how well it really performs, but so far, I think its a pretty good phone and I'm glad I bought it. Thanks.
This is my first smartphone so I can't really compare it to anything else. For a not so techie person it wasn't too hard to set up and I found info I needed on line or in the enclosed booklets. For the price it wasn't much of a gamble and so far so good. I mostly want it for talk, text and camera. Not a lot of internet. I'm a 73 year old grandma, what can I say?
I bought this phone for my 11 year old grandson. He likes it a lot. Finds it easy to use and loves the features that it has. He can even run some games on it. It came with an offer for a free Walmart gift card too, that was a little hard to get but that's not the phones fault. All in all a great little phone.
I have had this phone for about 3 weeks and am very happy with it so far. I mainly need it for phone and texts, so am not concerned about its relative lack of a lot of "bells and whistles," although I've been surprised by how many it DOES have -- especially for the price. I also have a Samsung tablet and am already quite aware of how Samsung does things, so the learning curve hasn't been as steep as it might have been otherwise. But I think that at least the basic functions would be quite easy to figure out, anyway.
My old phone was 3g so you can understand that upgrading to 4g was an instant plus for me. Price was right. Only problem was the battery didn't seem keep a charge more than a day in sleep mode before I had to recharge it. I am retired and I never use the phone unless I leave the house. It's just for emergencies. So when I am home I turn it off. Phone stays charged for a week or more and counting. Old phone took a minute and a half to turn on from off to on. This phone turns on in 20 seconds. I am happy.
I've had only one smartphone before - a Samsung J3 Luna Pro (now my wife's). Because I was familiar with that Samsung device, and quite satisfied with it, I went with "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" thinking. The limitation to that approach is that I haven't had an opportunity to sample other brands. So I have no real basis for comparison. Bottom line: It was a safe choice, and I'm not sorry!
Hard to use for a beginner smart phone user. User manual is not basic enough. I still haven't figured everything out yet. It's been several weeks since I am using the phone. I have mastered, through trial and error, how to make a call, answer a call, send a text, read a text and enter a contact list.
Very user unfriendly device. Using the keypad is very difficult. E.g.: tried to write "PASTOR" as job description for my minister's contact and came out with "PSSTOF." That describes my whole experience with this device.
