This device is also certified for use on Verizon's LTE network (see the note on the product page regarding compatibility with Verizon).

----

I was on the fence due to reviews mentioning GPS, notification, and charging port issues but just pulled the trigger on White due to ugly branding hopefully less noticeable on included case. Will see how it performs, replacing 2.5yr old BLU XL4.
Good Deal?

Just fyi, I've come across many mid and low tiered Android devices in my time that had supposedly charging port issues over time.

On one of my devices which had charger port issue also stopped vibrating. After running vibrate diagnosis on dial pad, I did the next thing I could think of, which is to delete partitioned cache. Not only did this fix vibrate but it also fixed the charging port. So when you start to assume it's hardware, always delete partion cache to ensure it's an actual hardware issue.

6gb ram! Not too bad. Guessing not 5g but that's still kinda early in it's release. Overall looks like a great deal. Thanks OP.

Got one of these last month. It's a perfectly able phone, but it (or at least mine) seems to have trouble with streaming video from apps like Vudu, Google TV, etc. SD or HD, it just ends up getting really choppy. The strange thing is that streaming from various sites in Chrome is fine. Wish I knew how to fix that.

Yes, the 10L is closer to the Lenovo G Power.

This is certainly, as with many modern phones, a lot of device for the money. This would also likely perform well enough on AT&T's network.

However, aggressive moves by T-Mobile to migrate their existing network towards 5G support means phones like this are likely to provide a poor experience on T-Mobile:
https://www.pcmag.com/news/t-mobi...ew-iphones

Also consider that this phone is nearly a feature-for-feature equivalent of a phone like the Samsung A32 5G. The A32 5G doesn't suffer from the aforementioned network issue on T-Mobile, and as a bonus the A32 5G is generally available for free (with contract requirements) to T-Mobile customers.

Good luck!
Jon

Can we put another firmware on it?

Is it a good device for FB Messenger and Skype video calls over WiFi and YouTube video watching?
