"Great dual core Android!"

Overall

4.6

This phone is overall one of the most feature packed and well built $100 phones on AT&T. It comes with a sleek and sturdy design, decently sized battery, bright vivid 4.5 inch Qhd display, and fast LTE connectivity. The Phone is very snappy thanks to its dual core snapdragon processor. When mashed up together all of these features create a pretty awesome device and its the first device in the US to get an ICS over the air update.
