One other thought, since the 25% is actually a 20% rewards points bonus, in addition to the normal 5% bonus, on what is charged on your Prime credit card, I suspect one should not let the checkout use existing gift card credit instead of the credit card. At least I didn't - I suspect it might not pay the bonus if it's on a gift card, and not on a Prime credit card. Maybe someone else will know if that's the way it works or not, but I just wanted to be on the safe side, so I made sure the whole total charged to my Prime credit card.
Thanks again, @tubemonkey!

I was thinking about this phone too and pulled the plug late last night. I ordered two and expect delivery later today.
It's nigh on impossible to find a decent phone in the 4~5 inch range. So for $16 (after the 25% discount), I figured this will do to tide me over until I find something I really want. I really have nothing to lose.
I read some reviews and they weren't kind, mainly because the specs were inferior to other comparably priced phones. Since I'm not using it as a phone, I really don't care. I'm using it strictly as a WiFi device and its specs are a huge improvement over my Moto E2 and LG Volt.
I'll give my impressions after I get it.
