Great Except For One Thing

24 Nov 2008 CellPhoneAddict

8.3 out of 10

I got the Shadow phone in March and I loved it. Having the scroll wheel double as a 5-way directional pad was very efficient, and I liked virtually everything on this phone except the battery life. I suppose with as much as this phone does it is not surprising that a phone would have a poor battery life, and I am hoping that this will be resolved by all cell phone manufacturers. This phone was full of great features, and I really enjoyed using it. I say 'enjoyed' and not 'enjoy' because I was waiting for the 2008 Sidekick to be released and jumped at the opportunity to get it. Now that the novelty of the SK has worn once again, I may just start using the Shadow again.





Beautiful Resolution and Camera Photos
great QWERTY layout
smart QWERTY performance
Browser even faster when using Wi-Fi
Very Poor Battery Life - must charge every night, even with light use

I hate this phone!!

I got this phone in November of 07 it was worthless then and it's worthless now!!! I figure I would get used to it and then it woun't be so bad but I have had nothing but problems with this phone. The ringer volume has not worked since I bought it and neither Tmobile or the phones manufacture will do anything about it beacuse they say "is not a common problem" The txt message always says I have an unread message even when I delete all my messages, the bluetooth signal comes on when ever it wants 2 not when I tell it 2, the keyboard gets stuck all the time, and some of the keys have to pressed real hard for them to work. I hate this phone the only thing I like is it looks kinda cool other than that .... ugh!!!!!

Great phone for basic user

8.7 out of 10

have had this phone since it came out in december and still love it. once you get used to the keypad you can text really fast and the xt9 usually works very well. great vibrant screen with nice bronze/copper finish. everything is great about this phone except battery life- if i use wi fi for even a couple mins or have it on vibrate it lasts maybe a day but i do text alot so that may explain that. also i dont like the windows media player since it doesnt have an equalizer. otherwise very good phone for the basic user and for only 99 for qualified upgrade.





price, feature set, compact design, user friendly
battery, media player, sometimes lag
