I don’t like my phone, I think I hate it!

I was so happy when I bought it, but after a while I started to regret it. To be honest, it is
worse than my previous phone. To begin with, it looks simple and old. Its designs is extremely
weird. Secondly, it is slower than my best friend’s phone. If you open an app, you will wait
for a long time. In conclusion, I prefer other phones than this one!

It is very difficult to have an opinion, why?

First, this isn’t the best phone, but it isn’t bad at all. If you want a normal and practical phone,
this one is for you, because it does the basic things. It is fast, but not the fastest and it looks
good but not as good as the new Samsung. It’s cheap, but not the cheapest.

I’m happy, because this is my first smartphone.

Honestly, I ignore if this phone is better or faster than other phones, but it is easy to do and it
has everything I need.

I think the best part of this phone is its design. It is the prettiest phone, because it is smoother
than others and more colorful. Also, it is lighter than other phones, therefore it is easier to
carry it with you.

What can I say about this Smartphone?

It is nice! it´s way faster, prettier and lighter than my old phone.

One of the best things about it is it´s easier to use, even my mom, who hates technology, can
use it. Every app is easier and more useful.

You can use every basic app and install more if you want, other phones have the same
characteristics, but everything works better in this phone. Also, photos in my old phone aren’t
as clear as the ones I take now. In general, the camera is great!

Finally, if you want the most beautiful and useful phone, buy this one, you won’t regret
it!
