Tmobileuser's review of the Alcatel 768
original version, submitted Sep 14, 2014, 10:21 AM:
A nice phone but...
I am in general pretty happy with the phone. While this not a 'smart phone', it offers a few features that makes it a tag above 'dumb phones'. The display is fairly decent. The buttons are big but it takes a bit of getting used to. For those who are spoiled with the current smart phone features may not like this. For those who just use this phone as an emergency phone and not being married to it, this phone is fun to use. FM radio, decent camera (2MP), stop watch,calendar/appointment book, unit converter (very limited. Only length and weight), are good to have. One thing that bothers me is there's no app or any way to make use of the GPS feature, rendering it to be completely useless! T-Mobile support documentation on this is equally useless. There's ONE response to another user's question by T-Mobile expert on this question, but it's totally useless as well.
So, it looks like T-Mobile has edged the legality of false advertisement based on its misleading statement on its website concerning this product. Battery life is relatively short if you use radio and camera frequently. Charging time is average.
