    Day 2 result of 693 ROCK SOLID calls , no drops, battery lasts a LONG time , OS is like 3x faster Night/Day vs 683 2x the RAM/Storage and a much faster CPU. Hard to believe it was made by same company. Out of pocket would be $39 vs $25 for the 683 so I suspect they are replacing defective phones with this one to fix things. Very impressed. Has already had 4 security updates.
    Also the buttons are much larger and easier to activate. Feels much nicer in the hand.

I have an unlocked iPhone XR that I don’t use half the features on anyway, so I’m selling it. This looks like it will be a good little phone for the basics- email, banking, calls, texts.

    I"m supposed to be getting one of these, though it's on back order now. I got one UMX a few years ago and couldn't get back on my LG Aspire LN180 fast enough! The UMX was lousy! Very low (if any) sound on the speaker and I have hearing problems. Even if this one gets here, I'm still tempted to just stay with my LG Aspire. I've been on Assurance Wireless for 7 years and never gotten but a zero signal strength where I live and even drive around with it! For a city of over 115,000, that is ridiculous.

      I got this phone after I messed up the charging port of my wiko u37 got it at no charge it's a good phone didn't have no problems with it first 3 weeks then one day i put it to charge and tried to turn it on once I woke up and the phone didn't want to turn on the red indicator light wouldn't show no more so it wouldn't charge at all I tried different chargers and nothing 😐 my fix was I holded power and volume down button factory reset it and it turned on. Turns out nothing is wrong with phone just it only charges with original charger which is charger model tpa-5950100UU When I got the phone I don't know where I left the original charger so I just grabbed a random charger I found around the house but that was my problem using random chargers instead of the one that came with it I'm go look for it it's somewhere around my house but you should enjoy it pretty good phone.

    Owned a couple of days.
    1, I think the phone I received was pre owned. The battery was already inserted.
    and the data usage dates back to Dec 12, I received the phone Jan 4th.
    2, battery life thus far is very poor. Especially on stand by hardly lasts 12 hours.
    3, looks nice should buy and carry extra battery with you other
    you could be in trouble if really needed.
    4, I may go back to my Kyocera.
    5, my other is an iPhone ES first gen. 👍🏻

    Just got this phone yesterday and wow what a difference compared to my previous Assurance phone that was an ANS ul40. Bigger, faster, more memory. I'm liking it. Only thing I don't like about it is having the lower 3 controls, back button, Etc on the very bottom outside of the lighted area. Makes it difficult to see in the dark and also personally because of that it's harder for me to hold with my arthritic hand and keep from changing the screen accidentally. Guess I'll have to look for some aftermarket thing to hold it with. One more thing, I read on the internet that there was some malware that could not be removed from some other UMX phones. Do you know if that's a concern with this phone too?

      It appears to be possible. When logged into assurance wireless my account go to the My Settings tab, from there you will see a column of options to the right. In that column you will see option "Change Phone". Click this option and a pop up screen to swap phones will appear. From there just enter the IMEI# of the phone you wish to use ( apparently service is locked to specific IMEI). Usually we can just pop out/pop in sims on unlocked devices but assurance seems sim lock to IMEI? I haven't swapped phones as of yet myself but am planning to do so maybe in a few months.

I have had 2 phones in less than 2 months. The first was UMX as is the second but although the outside is the same the inside is different. NOT to mention that I have no idea why now the camera does not take pictures in real life but only negative like pictures both on the camera and also on the news and google. I am really wondering if all the crap (apps) are on here to spy on you. They do not give you an option to opt off or out and I am stuck with having to download all kinds of crap i want no part of. I would be happy with only the text, phone and camera and of course contacts and forget about all the other 42 apps. Really, if you have any suggestions on what to do about the camera I am open.

    When I first had cell service back in the beginning with sprint. I had terrible service.
    Then I figured it out. It was the cheep phone I was using. Maybe $29.95.
    But as soon as I got a better phone. Maybe $200. No more problems.
    So sometimes the service is as good as your phone.
    Think about it $39.95 vs $1000. How good could that $39.95 be?

      You may be correct. My phone was free. It lacks info in setting it up, info on how to use it.

We will see if it overheats while phone is off and if the batteries are defective like they were in the 683. So much faster and real Android 9 , not crappy GO version. BTW the battery in 693 is identical to older 683 but I suspect the defective 683 destroyed the battery.

      The battery on the previous one I had (I don't remember the model, but it was just from late last year or earlier this year and was just like my newer one I have now), swelled up to the point that the back of the phone wouldn't snap on anymore. Once I realized this, I panicked a little, afraid it was going to explode or something, and quickly took the battery out. I emailed them about it, they sent me the one I have now, and I sent that POS back to them. I very rarely ever used it, too. No idea how that happened. But it makes me a little weary to use my newer one, since they are so similar and could possibly be the same model. 🤷‍♀️

    I just wanted to add two things 1. trying to get a case is like trying to walk on water. All the cases except $25 rubber bands that AW sells just do not cut it. I tried from Best Buy to Walmart to .99 stores every case is for I phone and the assurance has the camera eye in the middle which actually does make a lot more sense to me but the cases block the center eye out (how dumb is that). ALSO you can upload pictures from the camera to your computer. If your camera is working. I had the COX complete guy show me how. I can do it but I can't explain it I think ente75 should do a take on uploading do not know if you can down load from the computer to camera if you want to text a picture but usually what goes up should also come down. Will keep you posted on camera #3 if that strikes I am going to try to buy my own phone but from what I understand most purchased phones are not compatible with assurance unless you buy from them. I had a ZTE which took EXCELLENT photos and now I am in limbo as to what phone no 3 will be.

      Touch the 3 dots in upper left of the camera screen as you view the photo you are about to take if holding phone vertically. If holding horizontally/(panoramic) the 3 dots are located to the bottom left. Once you touch the "..." icon it will take you to the next screen where you will find the settings icon at the bottom of the page. It looks like a squiggly wheel/(circle). Touch that icon and it will take you to the next settings screen for the camera and about halfway down that page you will see "Countdown timer". Touch that icon and it will give you the option to select 2 seconds, 5 seconds, or 10 seconds. Just touch whichever selection you choose. This will become immediately become phone's new timer before photo is snapped.
