AT&T LG Phoenix 5 16GB, Silver - Prepaid Smartphone

***IF INTERESTED IN THIS PHONE PLEASE READ: IGNORE THE REVIEWS. I have no idea why this phone has such bad reviews. I had the the Phoenix 4 and this is most definitely an upgrade. I also tried out the Radiant Max, and also the Moto G7 Play, which I had to send both back for different reasons. All of the negative things that the bad reviews mention, can be fixed in the settings. Don't like the gestures? Go into the notification tab settings and change it back to the home screen and back tab on the bottom. That's what I did, It took me 30 seconds. Don't like the bloatware? You can either uninstall, or disable any app you'd like. That's what I did. It took me 30 seconds. The screen is clean and there are no artifacts. I had to send back the Moto G7 because it had double vision on the top and bottom of the screen. Beware though, the Walmart employee that packaged my phone didn't scan it before sending out, so I am now waiting up to 48 hours for it to be activated by Walmart, so that I can actually make calls. I also don't like that At

The phone's settings are easy to navigate. There are tons of choices offered, so you can set things up to fit your liking. I tend to listen to a lot of music. The volume on this phone is better than my last. I'm glad I chose to purchase this model.

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.

The manual gives just very basic descriptions of features which anyone who used any smart phone for more than a month knows by heart. It is impossible to find any information on more sophisticated usage of many phone's possibilities. The only way to learn - trial and error. Good for someone who uses it as a toy and enjoys playing with it. Bad for the one who needs to get straight to functionality and to use it as a tool not a toy.

It was so hard to have activated because it was said that I stole it and so they would not activate it but I did not steal it I paid for it online and it was almost a week and a half before I can get it turned on because I have no transportation to get to the store

This is a great phone for the price and well worth it! I read all these negative reviews and after buying the phone I can tell most people did not bother to learn the phone. You can turn off gestures and use the old fashion home, back, recent apps buttons. You can turn off swiping to left for Google assist and not have it open. You can delete most but not all the useless apps and disable the ones you can't delete! After I was left with over 7GB free space.... Not a lot but it is a 16GB phone as clearly the phone is advertised as. You can add an SD card for pictures and video. If you are someone that uses tons of apps and spends all day on your phone this low price great bargain phone is not what you should pick. The screen resolution is great, the camera pictures are great and clear almost comparable to my Samsung Galaxy S8 , and this phone has Android 10. I haven't seen any real lag and it feels and functions as a nice phone. We're talking $50 for a smartphone in the times of $800 $1000 $1200 top tier smartphones. This is definitely an upgrade from any previous LG Phoenix phones.... learn how to use ... or not use the newer features. More of the getting used to is the Android 10 and not the phone itself. If you are coming from the previous Phoenix 4 that phone is at tops Android 8 and is 2 generations older, and Android 10 is an upgrade in most aspects.

It's a nice phone but can't find a case for it . the phone is very fragile It broke on me had to send it back for a refund. Get a case and a screen protector before you use it.

The phone is rather slow as expected however when I disable (can't uninstall) the bloatware apps they show up again when I restart the phone. The CNN app, game apps, facebook, etc. Why would I only be able to disable these and not uninstall them completely.

Did not get to use it. I ordered it from Walmart. Had it delivered to my home. The store did scan the barcode so att could not activate it. Had to return it to walmart for refund. Then walmart did not have another phone in stock. So I waisted my whole day. Will not ever order anything else from Walmart to be sent to my house because they do not scan the barcodes before they send them to your house. Don't understand why.

i love this phone, however, when i purchased it through the app they didn't scan the product properly at the warehouse. when buying a product with a serial number the upc has to be scanned(which sells a catagorized product)then the serial number (which basically tells the computers that the specific phone was sold and not stolen). i ended up having to buy the same phone in-store and returning the one i bought on the app which meant i had to wait several days for the money to come back. to top that off, because I put my sim card in the warehouse phone it locked my Sim card forcing me to pay another 53 to activate the service in the new phone from in-store. what should have been a simple task turned into an expensive one with a headache from the start. did i mention it was a 2 day delivery that I received almost a week later?
