catastophic failure

4.7 out of 10

this fone held up fairly well considering i was the third person to own it.

i got it from my dad who had used it as a work fone (it went through quite a bit of abuse)

before him, my sister had had it and she has a habbit of dropping everything

i accidently put it through the washing machine and it still worked

then one day i took the battery out to copy down some numbers from the phone andwhen i turned it back on as soon asit finnished searching for service it would just go black the retry it over and over again

it got to the point that it wouldnt get past the sprint screen to even search for signal

its basicly catastrophic failure

i wasnt realy surprised that it broke i was just surprised by the timing

Pros

good design
i like the weight
pretty durrable
survived the washing machine (though the warranty did not)

Cons

gave out without warning
features are rather boring
had problems with vision throughout life of phone
screws fell out

WORST PHONE EVER.

This phone has been a disaster. I have had the most awful experience and Sprint will not let me return it, even though it is discontinued.
I have never been able to complete any phone calls, and the signal is awful, no matter where you are.
The battery is bizarre; as soon as you close the phone, it shuts off. I have had to keep it open and even then the battery only lasts ten minutes.
It's a terrible inconvenience and an embarrassment.

I'm not one to write reviews much but this phone and Sprint's lack-of-willingness to amend the situation has so rubbed me the wrong way I can't help myself. This phone costed way to much money for the poor quality and has been an awful experience. The screen and photo quality are horrendous and the crappy battery I hardly have words for. Dead after a 20 min. phone call, strange recharging saying "charging complete" when it no sooner goes from 5 bars to 1 bar and you're like, "what?!" with a 10 second warning before charging down. The reception is atrocious, roaming doesn't even work! Having been a loyal sprint user thus far, I'm so fed up and feel unsupported by them in every way, I can't wait to get rid of the entire experience. It's embarrassing what I've had to put up with and somehow explain to family, friends and business persons.
