Great Phone but........

Yesterday RodThaBod

9.7 out of 10

I have nothing bad to say about this phone. It is great. The bad part is , the network it is on. ATT is not a great network. I think ATT has just sat around and let Verizon pass them. Look at the 3G network map. Verizon is everywhere and ATT is pretty much no where.

Pros

The phone is AWESOME!!!!!!!!

Cons

Too bad the phone is on a terrible network.

This phone is great. good camera call qauility and has the best touch screen availible. The people who wrote the negative reviews only did that because they are verizon and sprint users even though att sucks. you will never be bored with this phone i have it. There is so much to do that you might forget to check your mail or something. I just wish it had a removable battery or something but i guess that makes it more sofisticated.
