Save your money on flagships, this is all you'll ever need.
Okay so I'll start by saying I've been messing with budget phones for two months, starting with a blu energy x2, the xl 2lte, and now the posh mobile volt lte. So I've had the phone for almost a week now. It's plenty fast for everything I do and lte is pretty decent on att, the only lag I have experienced on the phone is when I was running the restore feature on Google play and downloading all my apps while signing into all my accounts and scrolling through social media, and after a ram clear it was doing just fine. The ui is complete stock Android, with the two posh apps in the phone removable without a root. The camera, although not flagship worthy, gets the job done. There's plenty of space in the system rom and ram and the speakers are loud and clear. Bluetooth and WiFi had awesome reception and cell towers were just average. The 25 percent in 30min is bs unless the phone is off, but I however I'm writing this review at 11pm with 30% left and I unplugged at 6am with heavy use all day. If you use moderately, this battery will last two days no problem. Another note is the amplifier for the 3.5mm is substantial with flagships, whereas blu phones had such terrible line out audio I was forced to go to bluetooth everything for decent audio. The worst thing about this phone is the enormous bezels, not only in the gold/silver/rose on the top and bottom, but also another 1/8 inch of black all the way around. However, I've already ran over this phone with a mower (blades off, it's not a tank) and with the stock case it survived, which is a plus since there is no other cases or screen protectors available. In summary, I got this phone for 80 bucks like new, and I couldn't be happier. In my opinion this is the absolute best budget big battery phone you will find for US law bands. It outdoes every blu phone on the market and out performs all major companies budget lines at an even lower price. I'd love to see posh take this exact phone and put it in a rugged shell in the future, as this is the perfect phone for those who need reliability and performance for 1/8 the price.

Possible malware and bricked during update. useless now
The phone was an amazing investment for me. It had a huge battery. It had a functional fm radio that you can use with wired earbuds because they act as the antenna. And you can record fm radio. The screen was surprisingly nice and the speakers weren't terrible.BIggest gripe with this phone is that it bricked itself while it updated it's firmware to a new version of android. I'm also fairly certain that the phone comes with malware and i wouldn't use it to make any purchases, payments or important phone calls. but you can flash it to a different version of android or something and completely circumvent that. I think the phone also fried my 128gb sd card. it only supports 32 if i remember.bluetooth is choppy too and it has a really thick bezel.it comes with a screen protector and a little gel case. The phone is now useless though since it bricked itself.

Awesome little phone
I bo't this phone a couple of years ago. It was a great find and a great price at the time. At this writing, they are still available at a price $299.00 here on Amazon. I paid less. Nonetheless, I love this phone. I have always received compliments about its look. It's fast, the colors are vivid and the quality all around is top notch. I've dropped my only a few times and it still works just fine. The voice and microphone quality are great and the speaker is clear as well. I play music through mine often.The website for Posh Mobile is not longer active. That's unfortunate because it causes me to think that they may be out of business now. Anyway, if you can find one, buy it. I have a feeling every model of phone from this company is worth the price.

Battery life is great - cheap and sturdy phone
I've had this for almost two years now and had no problems with it. I've dropped it multiple times and it still works and looks great. Battery life after almost two years is still amazing. 15% can go 2-3 days is keeping to text only, which has served me well when I've forgotten my charger. Photo quality is ok, audio is ok, but that's not an issue for me. Memory is great too. Love this phone!

Beware the phone has phenix/Kpsh malware/trojan
This phone has Trojan and malware. It pops up and installs random aaps. I have to remove it daily. The only way to permanently remove it is by Rooting/jail breaking the phone. I bought the phone for phone's battery life which is good and the only plus point. The malware became active after three months so I was unable to return the phone.

The perfect gift for a teen
It is a perfect first phone for a teen. My daughter loved... I really liked it, but it doesn't fit for professional use.
