Net10 V176 acceptable in almost every aspect.

This is an entirely capable, basic cell phone. Call quality is decent, and people on the other end can hear me fine. Net10 uses AT&T's network, and I've never had any major problems with coverage or dropped calls. 10 cents a minute is a good price, and depending on when and how long you talk can save you quite a bit of money.

Battery life is fairly good. The user interface is a bit confusing at first, but I was able to use it without consulting the manual. Adding airtime is very easy. The screen is a bit on the small side, and isn't the best resolution, but this isn't a high-end phone. It is still perfectly readable.

It all falls apart when you have to call customer service. Net10 is operated by Tracfone, and they have some of the worst support I've ever had to use.
