It's a very inexpensive phone. For the price? I can't really complain. I've had this phone for over a year. Problem is when people call it sometimes doesn't ring. Or, they call, but the service holds the message hostage, and I don't get it until days later. The pictures are okay; not like an i-phone, but, okay, especially if you take outdoors. If you are on a budget, or just don't care about having the latest $1000 phone, you just need the basics, this might be the right phone for you.

I had mine for a year. Its a okay phone but has little space and has a ok camera. I like it but has minor problems. I've thrown it a lot and it hasn't broke. So its okay but not good.

I find that for a cheap phone it works very well except for a few quirks that makes one either choose to live with it, buy a new phone or cuss. The phones inability to recognize the SD storage card and inability to move Apps to the card is a pain. 4GB runs out very quickly after one takes into consideration T-Mobile's built-in Apps and the size of some of the more popular Apps like Facebook, Google+, and Messenger. Makes one wonder why bother to have SD storage if it is hesitant to even save pictures from some apps. Also the icons, on the desktop constantly move around at will and never stay where you put them.

I love this phone, I play Fallout 4, Doom, as well as other great games on this. The internal space in unbeatable, and the fingerprint scanner works before you even put your finger on it! it can read your mind, and tells you before you send your parents your nudes! and holy cow the update time is so fast.. the last update it let me play playstation from anywhere i can even hack other phones remotely from my house its unbelievable!!! and don't even get me started on its porn video playback abilities, I won't go into any details, but it shows EVERYTHING!

ZTE Obsidian is a rich smart phone with a large capacity for apps. it can easily take a number of 20-35 GB apps. My one gripe -- and this is for all smart phones -- is that it won't use the external memory for storing apps. It seems this is so customers will pay for a more expensive phone. So unless you take pictures every moment of your life or insist on downloading movies onto this small screen (compared to a movie theater screen, television screen, or even monitor screen), I recommend using only 4GB external memory.
I added Pokemon Go, and it worked well, but it was a very large app and I couldn't keep it on my phone because of other apps I needed to use. I use it for times I am in places other than my routine.
I use my phone for Internet, of course, but also for word processing, note writing, voice recording, calendar, calculator, flashlight, G-mail, downloading and reading books, screenshots, camera--front and back facing (both make good quality pictures), messaging, listening to downloaded music, learning circuitry, Maps, bus routes, weather, emergency notifications, YouTube, and, of course, games, mostly arcade games and puzzles.
I use the telephone mode for my main phone having replaced my landline completely with MetroPCS phone service (through T-Mobile network). My Obsidian connects well with any Wi-Fi, including my wireless router at home.
Pictures I take and downloads I get are difficult to find by file manager. It seems I have to use different programs or upload into Google Drive or Dropbox (it prefers Google Drive) to find them. Perhaps in another phone this file-finding function will be more complete, like the file manager in a desktop or laptop.
I find the pictures I take are good images. I use the functions to get better colors through white balance, close-up macro function, and preprogrammed functions as well. I recommend playing with all of these settings to find what they do. If I can do it with a tremor that makes the camera shake, anybody should be able to do so. Any camera with a 2 MP capability can produce a good picture. Anything larger than 5 MP is just vanity and conceit. Or for printing banners.
