I Bought an SCH-R500 for my girlfriend from Staples and found out later that you could not use your own mp3 files from your computer as custom ringtones. The Telus version seems to be locked out of many features including the ability to backup your settings or files onto your computer in case something bad happens to the phone. This feature has to be bought and stored remotely. The phone works ok and I like the design but I just wish Telus wouldn't block the most important features and force you to buy everything.





Battery life is good and charging is fast.
Nice look to the phone and ability to change face plate color.
Good signal strength with EVDO.
Takes ok pictures.
Easy menu system and doesn't take too long to figure out.
Lots of features (excluding the locked out ones)
Needs less restrictions for custom ringtones.
Has some locked important features that should normally be available.
MP3 player layout could be better and takes a while to load.
The phone takes too long to startup from a complete shutdown.

I used to have an alltel hue, and i had it for 1+ years.


This phone has honestly went through everything i have, fell out of a two story building, twice, dropped so many times, took a few swims, and went for a bath.


Not only is this phone one of the best phones i have ever had, it had many great things.


Great Service, Battery Life is pretty good, camera is good,  very tough, i would strongly reccomend it for a first phone, very durable, easy to use, great speakerphone and music player.


the bad thing is that you have to turn your phone sideways to view a missed call or text.


there are not many great features of this phone, its really simple. it is very easy to control and the design is a slight dissapoitment.


i traded this phone in for a blackberry curve, and these two phones are my favorite phones i have ever laid hands on.





interchangable faceplates
durable
simple
great service
battery life
camera
speakerphone
music player
reliable
the speakers are on the inside of your phone
design, the horzontal screen
not very customizeable
ringers arent very loud
vibrate is very loud, but weak
