AT&T ZTE R255 Phone Review

The new ZTE R255  from AT&T

The new ZTE R225 from AT&T is a neat little phone with basic features that a select few would consider valuable. The phone is a bargain at $9.98 at Walmart across the country. There isn't a great deal you can do with the phone and it lacks a SD card slot. As far as the style of the phone goes, it does actually look good, modern with a great metallic finish.

This is one GoPhone that if you lost it you wouldn't cry. Plus there is a tiny chance it would be stolen.

For under $10, everyone should have one! check out the video below for the unboxing and playing Tetris on the phone.

5/10 :)
