From what I've read, screens with curved edges are often problematic with hydrogel screen protectors

Good value, but only two years of Android version upgrades and four years of Android security updates

Yes, but the usual thing for people visiting from overseas is to buy a local SIM to use while here. Now it seems that they won't be able to.

Dacs commented on Random Bonus Cashback (from $0.10 to $50) on Purchase of any Gift Card (Min $1 for Amazon) @ ShopBack App (Activation Required)
These 'random' amounts with no transparency, where most of them are apparently 10c are just a waste of time
