I brought this phone for a back up.
Kev 63, 55 - 64, Portsmouth
Very very slow, avoid if possible
Purchased this phone a month ago specifically for work purposes, it is ONLY used to check emails and make/receive calls. The phone takes an eternity to turn on and then loading outlook takes a long time with the app failing multiple times before the system catches up. I do not run any social media or internet searches using this phone, just purely for email but even this seems too much for the phone. I know the phone is only cheap and I am not naive enough to expect it to be compatible to other makes/models that are 10x the price, but I would expect it to be able to load emails and allow me to read them without having to wait an eternity for it to load
