Know before you buy
No, this specific model is locked to the AT&T network. You will need an active AT&T SIM card to use it for cellular services.
The 100-point inspection is a rigorous quality check that tests all hardware components, including the battery, screen responsiveness, camera functionality, and charging ports to ensure the device is in good working order.
16 GB is quite limited by today's standards. It is best suited for basic tasks like calling, texting, and light web browsing rather than storing large photo libraries or many high-performance applications.
The 8MP rear camera is capable of capturing clear, functional photos in well-lit environments. However, it lacks the advanced processing and low-light capabilities found in modern smartphone cameras.
Because this is an older model, it is best used as a secondary device, a backup phone, or a simple tool for basic communication. It may not support the latest software updates or high-demand apps required for modern daily use.
