Samsung Core plus has chipest broadcom M320
Upgraded to Android: "7.1.2"
By using LinageOS 14.1
Effortlessly WIFI is dead... like no option at all....
On the bright side it is perfect for "Spies" / Paranoid Techies!
My first smartphone with a fresh breath...☺
Mine still work fine, but it cannot upgrade the Android OS any more.
And many programs do not support it.
It remain one of the few phones with a built-in real GPS so it work when out in the woods.
And that is a feature worth a million to me!
Still using this phone! :) It is very slow, bags often, opens applications with extremely low speed but opens :) I am not a heavy or any kind of user that needs the speed, I have plenty of patience so I am kind of used to this bad performance. And I am also pretty lazy to change it because of passwords and all that stuff that I have all set up here so I plan to use it until is completely gone :) p.s. batery that I am using is the one that came with the phone. Now it is in a very bad shape but again - works for my modest needs.
I use it fo two years ,initially it was good for little games and apps ,but right now it becomes terrible , too slow .and the android version is 4.2 then the most of games and apps require android above 4.4 .and the RAM too isn't enough only 717 MB .and the ROM 4 GB , you can use 1.80 GB.
Something like for kids to play
It's a good hardware but it lacks the software part. It got discontinued at 4.2 and that's a serious flaw considering the major compatibility Android changes start at 4.4. It gave several wi-fi issues in the past and can only be used properly if rooted and/or updated with an alternative OS.
The screen just "bubbled" so there's sth weird going on with this phone. I'm trying to root it and salvage it to use it as a casual handheld android console lol. Don't buy this, there are better options out there.
My dad owned it for only 3 YEARS. It still works but he desperately changed it to a BQ Aquarius U (not Plus, the former version) because wi-fi failed several times with serious issues in the settings. It turned off without any reasons and the battery drained quite fast. I wouldn't recommend it because is a very faulty model.
OK. I fixed touchscreen bug. Installed lineageOS 11.

soo...my Papaw bought me this bad boy as a coming out gift two years ago....was pleased....at first. I carried it every.single.day. in my back pocket. I took care of it, I nursed it, I polished it every day and let it sleep beside me....but it betrayed me....that ungrateful sonuvagun betrayed me. it just...broke i guess. Nuthin' worked anymore; I couldn't even watch my daily dose of U-Tube tutorials. Now I have ab-so-lute-ly no working cell phone. I am writing this Comment from my laptop. Im in an eternal search for a new phone...anything but this. Potential buyer of this phone....just..stop.
