Up to 32 GB Internal Storage and quad core CPU of unknown origin, I think probably iphone 5 equivalent if that.

There's a reason it says "Cricket" meaning that's the only one it will work for. If it's still same policy then it's required 6 months of ACTIVE service before qualifying for unlock but with no detailed specs on which bands it supports it might be only good for Att providers even after unlock.

Probably better than any iPhone that you can buy new for $20.

Are there custom ROMs for this? With a clean Android installation which is up to date this would actually be useful.

This seems to use Helio a22 and overall has almost the exact same specs as the ZTE A7 primes that visible was giving away for free back in 2019. Even then they were slow but surprisingly good. I'm a champion of basic phones that can do a lot but in 2024 unless you have no other option don't buy this. It will do basic web searches basic YouTube texting a messaging and such but even something like pokémon GO is going to be a little rough with a helio a22 processor in three gigs of RAM. If it was free or was going to be a backup phone to leave and the kids car with a $6 a month cell service from someplace like mobile x then sure but at this point, stay away

Look up mobilex . For example 50min talk 50 tx and 1gb data is $5.58. perfect for an emergency phone.

runs on verizon network. verizon is good in my area so no issues. speed is fine but if you are using mobilex you probably arent looking for unlimited blazing speed

Check out tello mobile if you want More minutes/text for simular price.
Note: you would need an unlocked phone.
