Best phone I ever had! I purchased it back in '21 and it's still running fast & strong. I get compliments on the pictures it takes all the time! Phone, Internet and text work without a glitch. My next phone will be another REVVL. Good price, great phone. Buying anything more expensive is just throwing your money away, unless of course you have the cash to throw away!

Good luck

Worst phone I had in 18 years.
Ex. You get 4 notifications per day. Or you get 2 a day or 10 a day.
What does that mean?
Anyway when I first charged it it 172 days to full charge. It's down to 12 days now ???
Etc. It's a piece of frustrating garbage.
Do not buy it.
All those glowing reviews are B. S.

CunningStunt, 11 Jan 2022GOOD > CPU and GPU are pretty awesome BAD > Gimped b... moreI rooted mine fairly easily on the first day I bought it with my client a PC and Magisk. Furthermore for the subsidized price why complain? You obviously are not rich you're lucky to get a subsidized device that can actually unlock the bootloader and come with and wireless. I'm running android 13 crdroid to and after a bit of tweaking this phone is definitely a sleeper. But it can't help it when it has broken users.

BaniRolls, 23 Oct 2022This phone is really durable, and has lasted me 1.5 years s... moreI will tell the good and bad about my Revvl 5G. I have had very few glitches with this phone. Almost glitch free. The only glitch I have is when the charge reaches 75 to 85 percent, it starts making the same sound as when you plug in the charger, every 15 seconds, and it stops charging while doing this. It lasts for about 10 minutes and then it goes back to charging. It does this about 7 out of 10 charge cycles. No big deal. I will call it it's personality. 😎
The only other issues I have with it are that the portrait mode needs improvement, and it barely received any updates. It got a handful of security updates and went to Android 11 and that's it. That's just one Android update. The last security update was for way back at August 2022. The phone is not even 3 years old, and it stopped getting security patches at the 2 year mark. Samsung gives 5 years of security patches and 4 Android version updates for phones at this price point. Because of the poor software support, I will never trust the T-Mobile brand phones again.
Now I will discuss the good points. It has a large and fairly bright screen. It has a pretty fast, quality Snapdragon processor. The cameras are overall excellent (other than the aforementioned weak portrait mode) for a $300 to $400 phone from late 2020. The front corner, hole-punch camera placement is ideal for me, as it's out of the way-- unlike the center hole punch on most Android phones.
The Revvl 5G comes equipped with a pretty good sized 4500 MAH battery that charges fairly quickly. After nearly 3 years, I still get 6 to 7 hours of screen on time at 90 percent brightness. The system runs smoothly with the 6 gigabytes of RAM. Phone call quality and volume is above average.
In conclusion, all in all, I have more likes than dislikes. Having more updates would have made a big difference to me. I give this phone a 7/10.
