the three letter word. it's how i generally feel about the heat. HOWEVER...as far as a basic phone (and i got this thing at 50 bucks so it's pretty basic in my view) it's really slick. i think it's nice and simple and pretty in the the layout and the body style. the slider is really nice and sturdy, it's taken quite the beating from me without even so much as a flinch. digitally speaking.

once i got the opera mini browser most of my internet problems were solved.

the bluetooth though, i cannot get to work. i can send things TO my computer, but not receive. i can't receive audio mms, and don't seem to be able to send it either. all in all...most reliable PHONE i've ever had, but not much else.

I think this thing really sucks! Cant seem to get he bluetooth to work with my pc, the messaging dosnt seem to send pictures even though i have 3G 5 bar connection, and the samsung site is so freaking slow that ...........Do not buy this phone, you will be very upset and need to replace the thing woith something better and helio only gives you 30 days to figure out that you do not want it and then you have to drop a fortune to get a helio that really is not a phone.

Not a phone to share

Touch buttons are a total pain, work when you dont need them and dont when you want them to. Cant bluetooth rings or sounds between phones. Cant download rings off of your computer to the phone. You cant use sounds or videos you download off of your computer as rings either. Basically it IS A PHONE (unlike Helios add says) and a seperate media player that cant share between the 2 or with anyone else.
