This phone did not work !!. I tried two different SIM cards from two different networks. The phone could call out and send texts, but all incoming calls and texts were blocked. A waste of money. Mark, Dublin, Ireland

At the price I paid for it, I wasn't expecting such a smart phone...maybe it's a bit early to fully appreciate it.
