22 Jun 2009 behold--me

9 out of 10

i got this phone a little over two months ago and i love it!

the camera is great and takes great video/pics   the flash works pretty well also

the web is amazing! its so easy to use and actually has a full html not like my mom's bb pearl

a touch screen....amazing! the phone is slim and small, easy to hold on to and very responsive

i listen to music all the time, and i was pleased with the playback. It is loud and clear

videos look amazing with the large screen, as the phone fits the video to the entire screen, very clear

messaging.....awesome! i like having two options to text with, T9 and keyboard. the handwriting recogn. isnt really useful because it takes up too much time and doesnt recognize letters sometimes

the touchwiz UI looks very nice and clean. (I have the updated menu and icons from the Memoir UI) some of the widgets are useful....SOME    others just take up space and don't really do anything useful

A HUGE LETDOWN IS WITH THE LOCKED WIDGETS.......new touch wiz devices allow for new widgets and apps to be downloaded (phone ex, Jet, Omnia HD, etc.) NO NEW ONES CAN BE DOWNLOADED....ONLY PRE-LOADED ONES ARE AVAILABLE

overall, very good phone :) would recommend to anyone     good deal, good price, and

Pros

battery life
texting w/ keyboard or T9 portrait
camera
web
small design and very slim
fast web/data speeds (3G)

Cons

ONLY PRELOADED WIDGETS....no access to new ones

The software that is running on the behold isn't too great. You can't do too much with the phone like you can on a blackberry or iphone. The internet browser lacks features, it really does not have a full html browser. It just looks nice, has a touch screen, and a good camara. You can't really add any programs to this phone. But you can add opera as an additional web browser, which can really help the web browsing experience as some pages do not load with the standard web browser. The opera browser is even faster than the browser that comes with the phone and offers more functions, except it doesn't tilt. When you lock your phone, there is a screen saver that displays images everytime the phone is locked and unlocked. Some of the images include flowers, I hated that as I am a guy. There is currently no option to change the images that display on the screen saver or a way to turn it off. The internet plan I had on mine was for smartphones, it costs about $25. Which is the same price as the unlimited blackberry web service. The web browser is far more superior on the blackberry in my opinion. I can watch complete videos from youtube without my phone getting stuck at 6% buffering like the behold did with its 3g speed. My behold was always searching for a signal and it impacted my battery life. The battery would never last a day. I prefer my wifi signal on my 8120 to the 3g I experienced with the behold, its more reliable and faster if you have wifi access.

Pros

Feels solid, big screen, looks nice, looks like a camara, 5-megapixel camara, great picture quality, accurate touchscreen, motion sensor, ability to display a full keyboard, & looks modern.

Cons

Lacks the ability to add programs, web browser isn't too great, battery doesn't last long, struggles to maintain signal, can't change screen saver images or turn off, no skins or themes, can't access msn email accounts with preloaded email program, and no email notifications. My phone couldn't play complete youtube videos.
