Why not bring the Idol 3 at $229 or something like that?

In reply to AS118. Geez dude, this phone is obviously not for the power user and it's mainly geared towards people transitioning in getting a smartphone. The most impressive thing about it is the full T-mobile LTE support. I'm not defending them, and they could have added more storage, but I guess it makes sense in this price range.

In reply to steveb944. T-mobile doesn't really make any money on phones. This is no exception. If you want a cheap phone, you can always buy a metropcs one. I brought an Metropcs LG F6 a few months back for less than $50 with taxes and unlocked it for $1.

I HOPE no one gets this. It may have LTE, but with a MediaTek processor everything will be so bad that it won’t matter that you have LTE. Do yourself a favor and but a Moto E, G or the Alcatel with Snapdragon.

In reply to guidomus_maximus. In this price range? The Avant is my number one choice with many more to come.

In reply to Andrew Singleton. Its a great phone for the right person, first smartphone buyer, 9 year old kid, back up phone, people who only want to talk and text but want internet access for directions or quick searches. Not all of us need a galaxy s6 edge, I will sell tons of these.
