best phone i have ever owned. heavy duty. was reluctant to buy a refurbished phone but has worked great for me.
This is 4th phone of this model and the previous ones were damaged via extreme incidents. Normal wear and tear? Usual drops or water? This phone shrugs them off and doesn't even show a mark. Only negative is I wish it was 5g.
order the phone came as described unfortunatly my cell phone provider was unable to connect phone even though everthing on paper should have worked just fine Top-Choice-Imports assisted in trouble shooting the activation and went above and beyond even though we couldnt get the phone to work with carolina west wireless they were happy to help me return and refund would deffinitly reccomend buying from them
UPDATE from first review: I am amending the review below. I returned this one and got another renewed one from the same place they were very helpful in their service. they tested the new one before sending it and it worked. They were also very quick in their response time. Unfortunately the problem is with my Verizon account. If only their service was as good I'm still waiting for them to fix the problem. (First Review) I received this phone looked good, Like new, I was unable to activate it for a few weeks because of work. Looks like a nice phone . Set up wasn't too bad except for the fact that I could not receive any texts. I updated the phone 3 times, and finally did a hard reset. to no avail. I'm going to order the last one and try again. Hopefully it will not have the same problem. After spending 5 hours on the phone with a Verizon service person and taking up my day off. I will update my review when the replacement comes. hopefully It will be better
I love this phone. By far the most solid cell phone ever but still a reasonable size and weight. Sonim's support was well above any other cell phone manufacturer I have dealt with.The Seller had a shipping mishap, but when contacted corrected it very quickly. I would trust them again.The HATE comes with the Lock-or-Unlocked issues. I bought this phone refurbished/used and paid in full by credit card through Amazon. It was described as "unlocked" but was 'branded' with the Verizon logo. More than a year later, we moved our phones to Mint Mobile from Verizon. Verizon CLAIMS the phone is UNLOCKED. Mint Mobile says, and Sonim provided at my request a screen shot to support the appearance that on industry data bases (such as IMEI[dot]info) the phone is listed a tied to Verizon. Federal law requires a carrier to "unlock" a phone upon request and not later than 60 days after initial activation. Verizon has not resolved this problem and claims in an email from a send-only mailbox that my "device is not eligible to be unlocked at this time." Someone in the chain of supply seems to be defeating the Federal unlock law. I liked my Sonim better when it could actually be used.
