In their words
“Yes the camera on this phone is pretty slow but if you want a phone that'll last, this one is a winner. I've had it for 3 years now and it's still going strong! Battery life is excellent, it's still fast, everything works and it has survived many many drops, even down the stairs. I've had to replace the screen protector a few times but the phone is still perfect.”

“I'm so disappointed about this phone. Is supose to be better then old one,but is noot, unfortunately. I have at the moment A51 , I'm using this for nearly 2 years and the battery life is so poor at the moment... Anyway, working good, all the application or web site uploading faster then A53, and yeah much better pictures then A53. If my old one is better, I want to return back the product.”
