WORST PHONE EVER!!! [although it was cute]

This is a terrible a phone. This is the phone that i wanted but my mom got it before me and im soooo happy she did. We have U. S Cellular, great company but bad phone choice. This phone is sooo cute but LOOKS CAN BE DECEIVING!The touchscreen went out constantly, she had to keep taking it back to the store so they could send it off to be fixed. The  touchscreen was very unresponsive. The phone could of had a bigger screen. It was soo hard to text on. My mom has long nails and i dont. My fingers are kinda fat too, so i kept pushing other buttons than the one's i wanted to push. UGHHH!! Well then it got dropped and stop working so my mom had to take my upgrade, Im getting the LG Bliss...HAHA!! stupid phone!!! TERRIBLE! TERRIBLE! TERRIBLE! THE RATE IS -1!





Cute
EVERY THING ELSE!

Not bad...

I've had this phone from US Cellular for over a year now. It's a good phone and has only had very minor problems. It freezes up every once in a while and is a little slow loading pictures and ringtones. I use it mainly for calls, texting, and pictures. I love the camera because it actually has a flash! I didn't text as much when I first got it, so I will definitely be looking for a phone with a qwerty keypad and threaded messaging next time. :)
