Worst phone ever

I have had this phone for 7 mos and should have returned it as soon as I got it. The battery gets hot when you charge it or even if you just talk on it. Then the speaker went out i couldn't hear anything , and i went and got a replace ment and it automatically mutes its self  about 2 mins into the conversation. texting is almost impossible. RUN AWAY FROM THIS PHONE!!!!!!!

Do not buy this phone it has been outdone by the samsung eternity and the lg xenon. the main problem i have is that the touch screen is too small for my fingers dont get me wrong i can still use it but it is really hard to do that. if u want the tv feature just get the samsung eternity don't get this phone because it is cheap. there are many other phones that are better if u are a texter i will never recomend this phone the lg xenon is the same thing but with a qwerty board if u can manage the touch screen size. the call quality is very good but it is the first phone that i had a problem with call volume when calling someone on a different carrier especially verizon customers. this phone is close to the day when they are going to discontinue it. the main thing that attracts people to the phone is the tv feature but the screen is too small to see that for most people. the antenna is supposedly unbreakable but i almost broke it not one but two times. another good thing about the phone is you can search your micro sd card for anything on it. anyway if u want something like this and you are on a budget get a samsung eternity


in conclusion i do not recomend anyone this phone even as a budget phone

First things first, I am a teenager. I text rather than calling. It isn't easy to text on this phone, what so ever. I still have troubles and I have had it for over 3 months now.  Also, it has "suggestions" for texting. So, if in a previous sentence you used the word "the" it will show the next word you typed after that. But, If you press the space button the word will show, sometimes you just want to space instead of the word, that word after "the" will still appear. The camera is broken, I have only dropped my phone 3-5 times. The camera does not have a flash, and it takes crappy quality pictures/videos (when my camera did work). The back of my phone, where the camera is located, has gotten so hot that it burned a part of my finger. It is not easy to call either. You could press the numbers all day, and if you don't use your finger properly to press down on the number it will not show up. So, overall I hate this phone.
