Customer Ratings & Reviews

I have only had it for a few days and am still figuring some of it out. It is pretty easy to use. I use as a prepaid phone - no contract.

I love this smart phone, easy to use, priced right, as all the features I need for a basic phone: data, text, camera, and decent speaker for music. Can add a SD card for storing my music. Nice screen for net Flex.

As a long-time Verizon customer I was disappointed to learn they would not let me upgrade my flip-phone to a smart phone w/o paying $30+ per month on a new plan. I found TracFone used the same towers in my area and sure enough it worked! Now I am a loyal TracFone customer and this Samsung Galaxy Core Prime phone is the bomb! It has Android OS and is a good size - not TOO large. So far, so good and I recommend it if you want to get a nice new smart phone for less than $50. I was able to get 3X minutes/text/data with this phone and a 1 yr. card was less than $100 for 1200 minutes/1200 text/1.2 GB data and you can use Wi-Fi most of the time for data. Yipee!

My initial thought when starting this phone up was that it's a Tracfone and they have been known to be on the cheaper side of technology. I have used all sorts of tracfone smart phones and I'm impressed by this one. It has an easy to use interface, nice size screen, forward facing camera that is very helpful, long battery life. The issue that I run into and its probably because I use technology fast, is the lag in speed to open apps and do multiple things quickly. I've run into this before with tablets and only being able to use an iPad that can keep up with me. This is a great phone nonetheless and it's only a minor flaw for me personally. All the other features are stupendous!

This is a nice phone, light enough for carrying in pants pocket or purse, works great, and you can use a 32gb mini flash card for lots of storage.

I like this phone because when I'm not using the phone I can use the wifi at home without using minutes or data. I use the Internet more than a cellphone. It's a good size for me, it's like a computer in my pocket. It light, large screen, easy to use, all around a good cell phone, internet usage for what I need.

I really like this phone because is easy to use, and able to put more applications than my old cell phone. Also, the net is fast when using the data or the Wi-Fi. One more thing, I really like the screen size.

This is a great phone for Tracfone. We still have a landline so this phone is used a lot for texting and when we are away from home. I have used the phone for almost 1 year and it works well for e-mails, Facebook, texts, and overall use. I added a 64 GB micro SD card to the phone.

My husband and I bought two new Samsung Smart Phones for our Tracphone Service while visiting our local Best Buy store. These telephones totally blew us away with their quality and, they were priced under $100 each. In fact, we bought our phones on sale for less then $50 each that evening. They have all the frills without the high monthly operating cost. We advise that you check them out

I had looked at the same phone at Verizon; they were going to charge me twice as much as Best Buy. The even better part was it was then also 50% off!. So, it was 75% of the cost of Verizon. The phone does what I need it to, it is easy to use other than I couldn't get it to answer an incoming call the other day; I do not use the phone much, so I still haven't figured it out. Battery life okay; since it connects to internet when available, it does go through battery faster than one that doesn't. From what I hear from most people, though, it is better than most on battery.

This is a good phone for making calls, texting, and internet surfing. It stores music (with an extra storage card that you will have to buy separately) for playing in the car with a bluetooth connection. Best of all it costs only as little as $20.00 for 90 days. Great for people who don't normally make a lot of calls. The camera is not for taking great award winning photos, but is good enough for recording something like where you park your car, etc.

This smartphone for use with a TracFone account works great and has many features found in more expensive smartphones from Samsung and others. I am an occasional phone user so this phone is well suited to my needs and was inexpensive to purchase when on sale at Best Buy. It can do all the basics including email, texting, and has a fairly decent camera. Although the screen resolution is not equal to more expensive smartphones, it is more than adequate for my needs. While I own an iPod and iPad, I refuse to purchase an expensive Apple iphone for my limited phone usage. It also has a wide selection of apps available using the android system. If you are an occasional cell phone user or need one for emergency use, this phone is a good choice.

I previously had a Samsung Galaxy S3 from Boost Mobile, as well as an old flip phone from Tracfone. I decided to upgrade my flip phone from Tracfone to a smart phone, and found this sale on the Samsung Galaxy Core Prime at Best Buy. After reading the reviews, I decided to purchase one and try it out. I figured it would at least be a step up from my old flip phone. I have had it for a couple months now, and I am very impressed. It has all the features of the S3 and all the advantages of Tracfone. It has a long battery life and is quick to charge. I would say that this is not only a good phone for the price, but an excellent phone at any price. I'm sure it is not as technologically advanced as the newest models, and it has an older Android operating system, but none of that matters to me. It does everything I would want a phone to do, and is a bargain to boot! I am very happy I bought it. My wife also has one and feels the same way. We bought one for her mother for her birthday, and she loves it, too. I would recommend to anyone to buy this phone. You will not be disappointed.

I have used Tracfone for more than 12 years and this phone is the best I've ever had. It's easy to use and works well . It is a little difficult to hang on to.I had to buy a protective case for it. My husband bought the same phone because I wouldn't stop raving about it.

I brought this phone for my daughter because she was heading to jr high and I need a communications device for her. After further review I believe I made the best choice possible . Easy to operate and it can be interchangeable with other Samsung model phone.. like the back cover and the battery.. but the most important part of the phone is that my daughter loves it.. size and all..

I love my phone! It has so many more features than my old android. The screen is larger, the camera takes better pictures and the overall quality of the phone is great. As a senior citizen I wanted a phone which was easy to set up and use.

One of the best budget Android phones . Really easy to use phone ,

I brought this cell phone for my wife's birthday, as an update from her previous one, and she loves it. It's a bigger size, so the pictures are great and so are the vivid colors, the voice clarity is so much better and paired with Trac-fone, the triple minutes, completes all the needs on a prepaid cell phone.

The is a very good phone. It was easy to get started, but I would have appreciated some instruction, s on how to use the basic functions, eg: how to answer a phone call ( I missed my first call because I didn't know you had to swipe the green circle, not just press it.) take photos, send photos, etc. This is my first cell phone. The online user's guide is an intimidating 157 pages long, and it urns out most of those paages are not essential to getting started. I'm not a tyro because I'm too young, but because I"m too old. Anyway, the phone is great, once yo get the hang of it.

A great phone, big screen, good sound for a change, great camera goes both ways and all the features of the "big brands"; priced right to boot.
