well i have this phone for a very long time.
at first i thought it was awesome but my
opion has changed. after about a year
you get very bored of this phone. its camera
is good but the camcorder only does 15 seconds.
that annoys me. another thing that annoys me is
the flashing colorful lights. can you cut them off?
and the vibrate is so loud. i have to keep my phone
on silent in class. after about a year and a half of having
this phone i should be a expert with it but i still have never
found out how to use the mp3. it was a good phone back in
2005 but now it is annoying and over used.

This is a pretty good phone. I have had it for a couple of years now and getting read to get a new one. If i were to were to pick between this and another phone, i would pick another phone. You get very tired of this phone. It is a ok phone nothing special about it.

stupid keyboard shortcuts...anyway...
Pros:
You can view a text message without opening the phone. I find this really useful when I'm in a hurry at work or running somewhere.

The resolution on the screen on the outside is amazing and plays gif graphics! I can set videos as wallpapers or caller id's for both screens! I love that!

The side speakers are loud and great for music even when the phone is closed.

Camera quality is really good for a phone and have found it extremly useful from time to time. (car accident damage and funny videos of friends being silly. :)

This phone does play mp3's,you just have to turn on the feature.

The internet isn't the fastest avaliable, but hey, this is NOT designed to be a PDA phone after all.

Signal strength is really good and even gets reception in places my samsung u740 wouldn't.

This phone relly is a tank, I have dropped it SO many times and it barley has a scratch!

I love the color, it's not the standard boring black or grey so common in todays phones.


Cons:

Speaker phone doesn't work while the phone is closed.

Sounds cannot be set as ringtones.

2GB card limit and it is a mini SD not micro.


Conclusion:

I have tried many times to replace this phone. I bought the U740 outright when it first came out($349.99!) Tried the new chocolate, a LG 8300 (the upgraded version of this phone now disscontinued) and even a blackberry, and I still keep coming back to this phone. I have bought 4 on eBay now and I think I'll continue to purchase them till they are no longer avaliable. I even convinced my co-worker to buy on online to replace hers (an 8300) and she loves it! I really wish Verizon would bring back this phone. I would recomend this phone to anyone not looking for a PDA or TV phone.

Hope this helps :)
