Rated 5 out of 5 by Ben626 from Great Phone that lasted me a while I have had it for 3 years on T-Mobile. I got it when I graduated High School in 2015 and it's been with me since. It is the most durable phone I have known, it can take a lot of hits and it will be fine. After my freshman year of college I took it with me to Tokyo and I had 4G data over there through a T Mobile plan. The camera is one the best in the day but not meant for low light. I also went Scotland in Fall 2017 after 2 years of owning it and it handled great, by that time I was into my 3rd new battery because you can replace the battery yourself which is something I hope Samsung continues doing to set them apart. I have had so many memories with this phone and everyone at first thinks it is an iPhone because it looks really nice. I also go sailing and it took excellent videos and pics, the 32gb is kind of limiting now. Last Friday, my boat capsized, so I went for a swim and the phone got filled with salt water so it's currently in rice but I thinking it's time is up. The battery life was not great on this phone nor the support from Samsung for updates but it was a well built and excellent phone that left me with a lot of excellent memories

Rated 5 out of 5 by Flenkers from Great Phone My husband bought this as my first smartphone. I am a bit of a technophobe but had no trouble mastering it with a bit of guidance. Not too bulky in the hand and screen is bright and clear. Navigation is simple and screens can be easily customised to suit your preferred apps. Camera is excellent for everyday use but turn off the phone easy use mode to get most benefit.
