What the Critics Are Saying...


Wired
Wired

It's a $150 smartphone, so don't expect anything groundbreaking. It omits a few too many features, and HMD now takes the crown for the worst software policy out of all well-known Android makers. But if you want to spend very little on a mobile phone, the Vibe will do.

If purchased with a 2 year service contract for example, you would likely pay much less for the phone itself up front. HMD's suggested retail price is $149.99.
