Good starter phone.

I had to replace my Moto E which died on me. Replaced with the Tribute 2. I find it to be a very good phone. The earpiece audio is excellent. The speakerphone could be a bit louder. The UI is smooth and easy to navigate in concert with the Lollipop 5.1.1 installed.
The only other thing that I may be critical about is the supplied music player does not include a graphic equalizer. But my music sound pretty good through headphones. The display is not that bad with a listed ~218 ppi. I measured myself with a display tester app and am yielding results of ~240 ppi. I do recommend a screen protector.
The power and volume keys take some getting used to. The knock feature helps in this respect. Battery life is excellent for a low Mah battery. Overall I do recommend to anyone seeking a budget phone with good specs. I find this phone to be reliable in most aspects. I have had great luck and performance with LG phones.
