I would say its actually a good phone. All you need to do is take care of your battery and get and app to monitor its Health. Other than that its good for everything else like youtube and playing brawl stars although it would crash sometimes

no VoLTE support. This device doesn't work with carriers that require VoLTE (Voice-over-LTE), such as AT&T or T-Mobile. I know this, as I personally own a F8331 USA model.
