1. Pretty Decent.

Maybe I'm slightly biased because I'm coming from a Marbl, but I really like this phone so far. Sure the screen is a little small on both ends and the camera's quality isn't that great. Considering it's prepaid, though, it could be a lot worse. It has bluetooth, a full keyboard, a mobile IM client and mobile email. If you're looking for a decent prepaid phone with akeyboard, this is the best you can get.
Keyboard, Mobile IM, Mobile email, camera has a flash, cheap plansBad battery life, photo quality is so-so, phone gets warm after long periods of talking

I had an LG envy. This phone is about the same price and a lot lighter. I love it. Hate the color though. keyboard texting is great. By far the best phone kricket has to offer.
keyboard texting. light weight. low price for all it offers. great pics quality.ugly color. creecks when u open it. battery life a little on the low side. ringtones a little low.

I got this phone from Target on the black friday sale for only 39.99$ it was a good deal, the only problem iv had with it is a dead pixel on the inside screen, it wont go away. but its not that big of a deal so im keeping it, takes pretty good pics for wat it is...a phone and not a digital camera like some are bitching about. the mobile messenger is great except it could have msn that would make it alot better, other than that its a great phone and next phone i would prolly get is the UT Starcom shuttle since it has an MP3 player.

I had the Kyocera Palm phone a few years back&hated it but I bought the Strobe for the QWERTY board(should've read the reviews BEFORE I bought it!)& was happy w/it(except for when it'd turn itself back on immediately after I'd turned it off!)until the pixels started messing up after a few months-just like other reviewers said!Took it back to N-Telos(VA)& they sent it out to ensure it wasn't water damaged(it hadn't been anywhere near water or even dropped!)Kyocera replaced it with the Lingo which,again,I was happy w/&liked it much better than the Strobe but now it's messing up(had it about 3 months).It's started connecting to the internet INDEPENDENTLY!I noticed the charging light flashing a few times when it wasn't plugged in&I wasn't sending/receiving&it wouldn't let me do anything.Had to cut it off completely&turn it back on to make it stop&allow me to use my phone.I just got my phonebill and the damn phone's been surfing by itself!Kyocera sucks.Period.NEVER getting another Kyocera!!!!!!

5. You really can't get a worse phone

I really dislike everything about this phone. The only good thing about it is it's sound quality (that is when i can get a signal). I've used other phones on the cricket network and they're significantly better in terms of signal strength then this one, but i have never really thought that Cricket was worth while. I don't think you should buy this phone EVER. Learn from someone who's learned from his mistake and stay away from the lingo and also cricket. At least i have no contract to break with them and will be switching to Sprint.

I have the kyocera one and it's nothing special. The screen is a little on the small side making pictures a pixelated disaster.I agree about deleting texts. Not to mention it can't hold all that many to begin with. But the one thing that really drives me crazy is that it freezes on me all the time. I mean all the damn time. I'm constantly having to take out the battery and start it back up. It's like a commodore 64 or or something. When it dies I'm simply going to move on. No love lost.
