I am very happy with Simple Mobile. The service in my area is outstanding. I always have full bars! I had Sprint before and was paying a lot through a contract and my service sucked, I never had a signal. I am so happy I chose Simple Mobile.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I dropped my two year old Samsung Galaxy S6 in the toilet a couple days ago. Unlike my previous indestructible Iphone4 that I also dropped in the toilet (don't judge me), my Galaxy S6 died that morning. No amount of rice or time could save my beloved.
I needed something quick and cheap, and this phone was on sale for $19.99. Add a $40 time card and BOOM! A new cell phone out-the-door for less than $65 including tax.
I have to tell you that this phone has beyond impressed me. The android operating system makes the functionality of this phone very similar to my Galaxy S6. I am able to have the same apps and using a similar interface. Needless to say it was a smooth transition from a phone I loved into a cheap prepaid cell phone.
*Positives* Large screen, lightweight, very fast (no lag), Android operating system, SimpleMobile service in my area (actually better than Sprint was), 4G
*Negatives* Low end camera, ringtone choices, speakerphone volume too low at max
In closing, I will say that I am happy with my purchase and highly recommend this phone. I wish I had this phone option when I had been in high school. All the prepaid phones back then were flip phones. I only plan to use this phone for about 6 weeks and then my contract is up and I plan to renew with a Galaxy S8, but for what I needed this phone has been a godsend.

This laptop is okay. I expected more I guess. The keyboard is noisy and the keys all are jiggly. It is annoying and feels a little cheap. The screen isn't retina and you can tell. I'll use it a couple years and save for a macbook pro in the meantime.

I owned a mighty little Acer 11 inch Chromebook for over a year before I got the Toshiba Chromebook 2 HD. When I purchased this, I knew exactly what I was buying in terms of operating system, etc. I knew the Chromebook's capabilities as well as its downfalls. Initiallly it was the size (13.3 inch) as well as the beautiful full HD 1080p display that drew me to this chromebook in particular. After having used the Toshiba Chromebook 2 for a couple weeks ( as well as using it for several college courses), these are the opinions I have formed thus far: 1) The size of keyboard is perfect and the screen is gorgeous. It is just about the perfect size however the UI scale is smaller than my 11 inch Acer chromebook. I am not willing to sacrifice the gorgeous screen by lowering the resolution ...so it sucks but I have to live with a tiny ui scale. 2) The wireless chip is pitiful. This makes using this particular chromebook in college very difficult. My Acer 11 inch has no issues with wireless what-so-ever on my campus, but this Toshiba is miserable. 3) The laptop itself is visually appealing however the lid of the laptop is so thin that it doesn't appear heavy enough to hold the fancy screen. Now I am not an engineer but the design irks me. My lid doesn't close as even as I feel it should. I can imagine problems in the future because of this. Those three things aside, it is a nice little machine.

Is this good for a college student?

I am going to college next year and I am looking for a laptop. My school just bought new chromebooks for the students, and I liked the system. I am concerned that this will system will not be compatible with my classes. Any suggestions?
Hi, I use the Chromebook for my college classes and have had no issues so far with it not being compatible with my classes. I use Google Docs in place of MS Word, Google Slides in place of MS Powerpoint, and Google Sheets in place of MS Excel. Also, Apache Open Office is available in the Chrome store for free which has everything you need if you dont want to use Google's.

I have also done some web design with the Chromebook as well and it works as well as a regular laptop running Windows OS.

It is very easy to take notes and keep them organized in Quick Note. Also Google Cloud is amazing. You have access to all your important stuff from anywhere with a net connection... you just have to log in. You also do not need any plug-ins to play from Cloud so this is especially nice if you accessing your papers from a different computer.

Will you be able to only bring the Chromebook every day to your classes and be okay? No, you still need to bring paper and a pen, etc. But the chromebook is a valuable tool for college and you will be soooo happy you have it.

Good Luck !
