Horrible phone

I got this phone in April of 2008 and I too was attracted to it's design and thought it was a cool phone. It was a good phone for awhile then the sound quality was terrible, is isn't a good music phone and ringtones sound terrible on it. The keyboard would freeze, the screen would go white then shut off, it didn't stay charged well and personally, it's a boring phone. I love T-Mobiles customer service but their phones suck! The interface is boring. I  have had problems with every Samsung I've had through T-Mobile and Sprint as well. I will never buy another Samsung. For how much they cost, they're cheap pieces of crap and that manufactures obviously don't care about their customers because I had to replace this phone four times through T-Mobile. There was no physical or liquid damange to the phone either and when T-Mobile tried to get me a new make and model, Samsung would only allow them to send me yet another Samsung Blast. If you are going to spend $200 for a phone, invest it in something nice and reliable. I'd save up for a BlackBerry or Palm and spend more money on a better phone.

Pros

Nothing.

Cons

Everything

well. i went to the tmobile store and was checking out phones since it was time for an upgrade. i automatically went for the blast because of how it looked and the KEYBOARD!! right off the bat the sales man told me he hated to phone and that i should do research online because it was a terrible phone. i was instantly bummed and went home to research. i heard the same complaints time after time. sound quality was bad (common with samsung) and the service was terrible with this phone.. well. i decided to be a big girl & make my own decisions and just tried getting the blast anyways since i could return the phone if i REALLY didn't like it. can i just say that i am so glad i got this phone!! this is like the best texting phone. very easy keyboard once you get used to it. the sound quality is fine. i wouldn't say it's the best but i think razrs are worse. since i'm totally clumsy i drop this phone all the time. i can practically throw it at the ground and it doesn't break. which is good. i haven't even gotten a sd card yet to add music. i really like this phone and would recommend it. the only con is i have a huge purse and i loose it all the time in there!! haha. it's a fun phone that not many people have. which is what i really like.

Pros

keyboard. design. slider. screen.

Cons

color. (not a huge fan of the red backing)

Ok, well, I really like the phone. I love the keyboard and I love that its so slim and fits into a lil pocket in my purse. I guess the one thing that I don't like about it, is its features. I like that its an MP3 player but I don't like that I can't make them tones for my messages. I would love to be able to change everyones message tone so I knew who was texting me by the music but you can't. I also don't like that I can't clear out the recent recipients list. With my older Samsung phone, I was able to do that and it was nice. I also wish it had more themes to choose from. I think if the features were a little better I would Never part from this phone.
