LG Android
It's surprisingly a good phone I use it as a daily driver for all my social medias texting tiktok and movies and videos it lags time to time but for the price its unbeatable value if you're looking for a budget device to get you through day to day tasks this is an excellent choice slap on a glass screen protector and case though as the phone is only made fully of plastics

Not worth it.
The 4 is way better. I had this phone for only about a week and returned them. I was unable to move any apps over to the SD card. The only thing that I was able to store on the SD card were pictures. The phone came with a lot of apps like most phones do, except I wasn't able to uninstall a lot of them. I did disable them though. In one week, my storage use was at a 95% capacity use. I have been using the 4 and have never had that problem.

    very poor useable phone
    I bought 2 of these phones for my husband and myself and we both hate using them. They never work correctly. Don't waste your money. I went back to my old phone. VERY disappointed in this phone.

    A mixed bag
    The price is great as is the yearly cost of service and the hardware is okay. I got this because my old iPhone finally bit the dust. I detest all the swiping crap, especially since I miss half my calls because I have to swipe to answer and I look like I am having a fit swiping like a mad man to no avail. I suppose someone much younger or addicted to the phone may like it much more. I don't. It has a ton of junk on it but in the final analysis it is little more than an advertising platform for google and they bug you repeatedly, trying to sell/give you apps you neither want nor need. I have never liked android so I am sure that plays into my utter dissatisfaction. If you love messing with your phone, enjoy all kinds of apps you really don't need and are familiar with android's messed up way of doing things then this is the phone for you. You must temper my review with the knowledge that I play no games, can read a map, view social media as a mostly negative thing, don't listen to music on my phone, and I don't use my phone to be constantly informed about news, weather, or what's new on my laptop.

    Phoenix features Wide angle lens
    One of My favorite features of Phonix models is the Knock on/off screen. The other great feature is the camera has a wide angle, and closeup lens. Long lasting battery and bottom speaker location. The only thing missing is the rear power/volume as on older Phoenix models.

    Not very impressed
    This is probably the worst phone I've ever had. Both of the rear cameras take terrible photos and there aren't really any settings to change in the camera app. This phone has completely wiped my sd card of all my photos and music twice now. The screen doesn't respond half of the time and gets stuck in between landscape and portrait when rotating screen. Honestly the phoenix 3 had better settings and features than this one.

    Trash phone.
    I had this phone for some time now, and i got used to the slow speeds the phone has. applications are laggy, and videos buffer. The storage that the phone comes with is bad because all of the storage is used by pre-installed applications the person cant uninstall, only disable, called "bloatware". The android UI freezes all of the time, the keyboard has to load in before typing?! . Going back to the storage, I would only have 1-2 GB to use for my personal files, most of the storage used by me is applications such like, instagram, snapchat, youtube, just those applications would leave me with 300 MB left of storage. And we can also talk about the Notifications that can't be dismissed, if I manually turn off data, it pops a notification that i turned off data, like i know that phone, and i cant dismiss that. The phone takes a while to load the system UI and any application in general. the Google assistant is annoying because it can pop in randomly, and with the low memory of the phone, it will appear at 1 FPS. If i try to close it, the system UI crashes. Go ahead on google and search for "LG pheonix 5" then scroll to the reviews, there are more 1 star reviews than any other review. Bad Phone even for 50 dollars, its not user friendly at all. The camera quality also is bad, video capture is at 30 FPS, you can't change the resolution of the camera at all, there is no slow-mo feature, and the microphone quality is bad too. The screen resolution is pretty bad, I can't really see videos clearly, and it cannot handle 1080p even with the best WIFI connection. Companies that use android don't really care about privacy, they will allow any source to track your device, and track your location without permitted, the biggest offender of this is Google. There aren't any warnings that say "(this application) wants to use your location" or "(this application) wants to track your device", so you are basically unsafe using this phone, using google of course. When swiping up, for the google search thing, that is also a point where the phone crashes, When i accidently swipe up, and try to close it, system UI crashes. The only pro this phone has is the 0.5 Lens the camera introduces, the zoom is pretty blurry, so thats a trade. other than that everything is bad, hardware and software wise. Comparing to its predecessors it is a real downgrade. All of these reviews are only cosmetic reviews, and a first looks, they are only looking at the actual design of the phone, they dont test performance, because they are getting payed from LG or some other prepaid company themselves, and require the person to show the design NOT show the specs. That's LG's trick to get more sells.

    Would not recommend.
    Piece of junk. This was the second one that I purchased. The first one quit charging. Would not acknowledge charger being plugged in. Used every charger and even checked the charger at the photo lab. It wouldn't work. I bought this one and within a month or two it did the same thing. Would not recommend. I purchased an AT

    Nice Phone
    I like my phone. The only issues I have is I am not able to remove apps to my sd card (which I was able to do with previous phone) It keeps telling me low on storage and I need those apps on my phones that I added. The ones ATT put on there like HBO Max I don't need. Another thing that would make it better is having the power button on the back. Other than that its a great phone.

    When I got the phone I could not get it set up it showed the account suspended. I went to the local ATT store who called and they stated the wrong bar code was scanned and therefore the phone was showing stolen. When I sent In the receipt and other numbers the phone was unlocked. This was a little hard in my nerves. Employees should be trained in the proper process of shipping out products
