This phone has some pretty respectable features and seems to be off good quality. The number 1 downfall is the 8GB of internal memory. It's true that you can expand it up to 256gb with the use of an external card, However, the memory card is only really utilized for storing media.
For some reason this phone will not use the card as expanded storage meaning that each time you install an app you will need to go into storage options and move the app to external storage. That is if the app will allow you to move it. I am also finding that when an app is updated all the sudden it shows up back on internal memory. The phone then starts to freeze due to the memory overflow. This wouldn't be a problem if you could keep the phone as it were when you unboxed it. From first boot you only have about 4gb used by the OS. After you connect to google play the real fun begins. All your apps update and it installs the google play apps, music, movies, gmail, and so on. Next comes the cricket apps like Deezer, cricket rewards and so on. Oh by the way, these apps cant be moved or deleted.
Also, think your gear fit or other Samsung device will work with the S Health Samsung health app? Think again... You can install Samsung Galaxy apps, you can install S Health, but after that you can attempt to pair your device, Once you do you get a message that says Device not supported.
With these limitations I would have to put this phone as nothing more than an overpriced burner phone. At the $100 price tag it cost more than comparable models but hey it does have Marshmallow and looks nice. But they turned off the ability to use external memory as extended storage. So its like a neutered version of marshmallow.
In closing, I would not recommend this unless they either allow you to remove the bloat ware or unlock the ability to use the SD card as extended memory.
Get more accomplished in a day when you let this 24" tall tub dishwasher do the dishes for you. The delay start function lets you set it and forget it as you go to work, run errands and more.

This dishwasher is a good value. The dishes come out spotless and it is very quiet. The only negative I found was the wash cycle seems long and the racks take some getting used to. The tines in the rack are not adjustable and there seems to be some wasted space as far as having enough evenly spaced tines near the edge of the rack. The other complaint is there is no really good spot for bowls. With that being said there are 3 different wash cycles and if you are an educated consumer and read the specs before you buy then you will know what to expect. The wash cycle time can be adjusted depending on how clean you want your dishes. I normally prerinse so if you choose to you can use the light wash cycle. I however do the normal because I have young kids in the house so I tend to do overkill cleaning. All in all it beats spending $150 in parts to fix the old one.
What's great about it: Easy install, great price
What's not so great: Would benefit from adjustable racks.
