No microSD slot;
If people cares about.
I saw lot of people in LeEco phone thread says "no microSD slot is deal breaker"
No microsd slot = you must use online storage for your photos (google photo, amazon photo, samsung cloud, etc). The rest is pretty much already in the cloud, so no need to worry in case you break your phone

NextBit was bought by Razer and they have promised "hardware warranty" only till June 2017 so that date has already passed and you wont be able to get warranty support from them

No micro sd slot + non-removable battery = DEAL BREAKER! you can easily get a lg g4 on ebay for same price that has both. (G4 = Possible bootloop issue, no fingerprint reader, 1.8Ghz vs 2.0Ghz, Micro-USB)

the only complain for this phone is the camera otherwise is good phone,This phone updated to Android 7.0
I have been using this phone on T-mobile, planning to get one for my wife. I have had no issues with this phone on T-mobile. I think it says partial coverage because it does not support VoLTE.

Edit: It has VoLTE. http://www.spectrumgateway.com/compatible-phones

it's unfortunate they disabled OTG so they could force you into using their cloud service which I believe is coming to an end

i guess i'm an idiot but as long as it has band 12 then shouldn't VoLTE work ? or is it somehow hardware limited ? thanks !

I consider this a pretty good phone for $100 since no tax is charged and considering 5% back for using amazon charge and utilizing cash back site .

so for $100 I can live with some issues especially because it has front facing stereo speakers and no tax .

now if tax would have been charged I would have passed . lucky 4 no tax . . .

anyone know if this is on XDA ? thanks !

edit: also included same day shipping is pretty sweet . . .

I wonder if this would allow for us 2 correct it ?
