1. It's okay

First off, what I enjoy about this phone. I love the slim design of this phone. The camera is pretty good and has plenty of color and frame effects to keep you entertained. The Screen is a nice size. What I don't like, I hate that that the camera is only exposed when the the phone is slid open, ergo you can't use the camera when the phone is closed. I also do not like that you can't talk on the phone while it's closed.  The phone Get's very hot if used for an extended amount of time. The phone tries to exclude background noise, but what really happens is everything in the background just cut's out and fades in and out a lot and can just become extremely annoying. The phone has a good signal a majority of the time, but often goes in and out of roaming. The phone could be better but could be worse.

2. Decent phone

The SCH-R610 is a decent phone however it is missing a few key features. Firstly the date is not shown on the home screen but can only be found under the calendar within the tools menu. Secondly the carousel has a slight lag before each pop-up menu appears so if you press OK too quickly it will unintentionally jump to the Menu. Lastly I wish there was the ability to assign shortcut keys to frequently used features such as the alarm clock and to be able to snooze the alarm without sliding it up.

My daughter has this phone and unfortunately we have not had a good experience with it. I will be sending her phone in for the second time to be repaired. I think she got one with a bad LCD. Her buttons are also cracking and breaking. Not a good phone for a teenager that loves to text....at least for the buttons sake. The price you pay for this phone you would think it would have been made with better quality.

4. Everything but sound quality

I was looking for a phone that had in ranked order

signal strength, sound quality, big screen (so I don't need reading glasses to see who's calling), texting

Everything was good except the sound quality of the phone. It seems as if the software excludes certain sounds and discards them as background noise. It winds up discarding parts of the incoming call.

I really like this phone, but cannot put up with the sound quality problem, it's going back.

8. love it n& hate it!

I have this with US Cellular, and while I totally LOVE the phone, I can't get any ringtones for it without spending an arm and a leg, and it only comes with 5! Whats up with THAT! You can't email them to yourself & download, it's not permitted, and when you try to access a site via internet, it gives you the HTTP 503 service unavailable, so the internet browser is pretty worthless. Also you cannot send them via bluetooth either, content sending is not supported. Memory card transfer is also not an option. If anyone knows of a workaround for this phone, please post it here!

l really like this phone. i am a big fan of the slider design, anyway : i just wish this phone came in fun colors. it is user friendly, easy to figure out, fun features such as photo frames, Many options for the camera and it does have a flash. i wish the speakerphone had it's own key instead of going into a menu, though. also, although it does voice commands, it does not do them through the bluetooth. over all, i am having so much fun with this and it sounds Great, with strong signal strength, which is most what i want in a phone--dependable!
