Review: Good phone I will buy again for kids. - It’s a good phone shame the old sim couldn’t use it and had to be returned. But love the phone for youngsters. Thanks to the seller for refunding and including postage of return. Amazing, I would shop with them again for other items.
Review: The Battery Life - I really like this phone, simple to use, all the features I need, far less of the bloat that I don't. I've already had an Alcatel phone, and that's been providing sterling service as a household spare for over five years. So when my beloved Moto G started to misbehave (or behave really, really slowly, even after a factory reset) I decided to save over £100 and go with an Alcatel as my new main phone. There's just one problem; the battery life. It's absolutely terrible. Just sitting on my desk doing nothing (except turning 'calls over wifi' on and off, and I can't find any setting to stop that) I need to charge it once a day, sometimes twice. This would be absolutely useless to anyone who needs the phone to be actually, well, mobile. I can't buy a replacement battery with a larger capacity, so I'm stuck with it. Other than that it's great, such a shame that it's been let down by this one aspect.
