Awesome Phone

18 Nov 2009 kfelao576

9.3 out of 10

This phone is GREAT! I had this phone for more than a year and I am very pleased by its large display, camera, and its amazing abilities. The beauty of the phone is another thumbs up. One minor issue though is the keyboard, it is a little hard to type at first but later on, you get used to it. It definitely isn't the kind of phone you would want if you are one of those hardcore texters. Also, the music quality of this phone is very crisp and I thought it was one of the best multimedia devices out there. Too bad this phone is discontinued. :-(

Pros

Beautiful Design
Great Touchscreen
Good Camera

Cons

Texting

Great phone

14 Nov 2009 Bill Haynes

10 out of 10

I have had this phone for over a year now. I have had a number of phones over the years and this is the best phone I have ever owned. My battery last for 5 days between chargings. The camera is easy to use and view pictures. Texting is easy to read and delete more then one text at a time like some phones. I put a protective clear cover over the screen and never had a problem with scratching. I found a blackberry leather case that fits it perfectly so that helped to protect it also. I would recommend this phone to anyone looking for a good phone.

Pros

Nice size screen
Easy to read texting
Good camera
Long battery life

Cons
