Even Thogh the phone was turned off and was in my pocket something triggered it to ICE in case of an emergency. The phone sent a text to every single person that was stored in the phone sending the word HELP. It might of gotten this word from a previous attempt to text 611611 to get help and reading the number of minutes the phone caused a real panic and even got someone to call the police for an emergency wellness visit. I deleted all of my contacts from the phone to prevent this from happening again.

My biggest gripe with this phone is when using T9 to text, the dictionary that is built in is missing a lot of words. There is no way to add your own words to the dictionary. So t9 texting can become very slow. There are phones with better dictionaries or have the ability to add your own words to the dictionary for words that the phone does not have in there by default.

Should of heeded all the negative reviews. Warning flags were out there. My fault for purchasing this phone. Soon as I figure out how to clear all data, sending it back and am not requesting refund.

I received this phone for free due to the upgrade going from 3G to 4G. I use my phone as a phone (once or twice a day) and an alarm to wake up to. I need to charge the battery almost twice a day if I want to keep above a 50% charge on it. There is NO display showing remaining time/minutes. This is a HUGE problem for a pay as you go phone. I called Tracfone, and they said I needed to download an app to access the website to check on remaining time, or even to receive the necessary info from their 611611 source (info tab at their website). But there is no way to check it on the phone directly. I don't like the white background with black text, as that burns through the battery faster. I changed it, in the settings, to inverse. so now I have the black background, but it also inverses the photos I've taken (yea, I took a photo just to test it out). The photo looks like a negative. I want to change it back, but the user interface is soo bad, I can't find how to change it... if there is even one anymore. I turned off the vibrate mode in an attempt to reduce battery usage, but the phone still vibrates, even when the alarm goes off. There are so many issues with this phone I would be embarrassed to present it to customers I want to keep. I have never had ANY problems with Tracfone in the past. I have been a loyal customer for over 22 years. If this is the direction they are taking with their product... then I'm out!

I was forced to get this phone via Tracfone. The instructions that came with It do'nt match!! I ca'nt access the menu, and It's anti-intuitive, and the battery is 15% gone just trying to get the Thing to SHUT UP!! -- i'm going to get some service NOT tracfone after using my minutes.

Sí, recomendaría este producto.

If you want to be attached to your phone 24/7, don't buy this phone. If you want to use internet, don't buy. On the other hand, if you want a light weight, handy and one for emergency purposes, this is best. Consider the price you are paying for all the extra features and ask if it is worth it. My philosophy about phones is different than most. I don't use a phone when I shop, meet friends, etc as I consider it ignorant. Every other use I can do on an IPad and laptop.

I would give it one star if I could. This is the worst phone I've ever had and it's way worse than the 2010 Kyocera flip phone I had before it. I have been using it for a year and a half and really dislike it, just don't want to spend money on another really bad phone. The battery has just stopped working and won't hold a charge for more than one day. The buttons are hard to press for texting and it was much easier on the old Kyocera. The camera has stopped working, every time I click it the screen flashes and then nothing. It also says "no service" all the time even when there is service and other phones are working and therefore won't get calls and texts. This is very annoying when I need it for an important call. Sometimes it automatically picks up calls when the phone is open and I'm not even aware of it, someone just starts talking. And sometimes the caller ID is WRONG on the screen on the top and it says someone is calling but it's really someone else. Please, do not make my mistake and waste your money on this phone.

Forced to upgrade, regret this phone and staying with Verizon. Exceptionally poor battery life. Features like calendar and calculator are similar to previous phone (Moto), but not as accessible. Editing and viewing text messages are a pain, such as moving the cursor within a message. Overall I would not recommend

We have been Verizon customers for more than 40 years. You now require us to change phones.This is the worst product you presented to us, and, you want us to pay $99.00 for 36 months before you reimburse. I wish I could rate it zero
