Very low end phone (spec list here), but with removable battery and µSD card.

Only:
- 3.5" screen
- 320 x 480
- single core 1.0 GHz processor
- 4 GB storage, but only 1.2 GB user-available
- 512 MB of RAM
- 3.2 MP camera
Cheap price; but the specs are way to low to recommend getting this phone. It's a couple years old and still uses Ice Cream Sandwich (4.0). It won't be upgraded. The combination of a single-core processor, 512MB RAM, 1.2GB storage, and And 4.0 will make you regret ever getting it. This thing will be slow and you'll run out of storage fast.

Keep in mind that not all apps can be moved to the mSD card, so you'll be limited in the number of apps you can have on this phone. Also, Android 4.0 will be the next OS version to be left behind as app developers increase the features on their apps. When that happens, you'll be stuck with older versions of apps or no ability to get new apps.

In my opinion, the $10 will be better spent at Starbucks than on this phone.
