1. Adorable Phone
17 Oct 2009 by Anonymous
83.3%8.3out of 10
I've had this phone for almost a year, and I'm getting an upgrade soon - the lg Versa. But this phone has been a good phone for the past year of my life. It's cute and original, not many people have it! Whenever I take out my phone, someone comments on it. I call it my "fat square" because it's a square shape, and it is pretty bulky. If you're one of those people who carries their phones in their pockets, this isn't for you. Also, I've never seen a case for this phone. The camera quality isn't great, but it gets the job done. It also can't take video, which is a shame. Sometimes I would "butt dial" and end up on the internet, sometimes as long as 19 hours! Lately, the phone has been acting up a little bit, but not terribly. It turns off randomly, but it's only done that about 10 times. One thing I love about this phone is the battery life. I can go a week without charging it! I loved the keyboard because the letters were close together. Some people probably didn't like this, but I have small fingers so I could press the keys. And since they were so close, it made me a really fast typer. The entire format of this phone is simple and easy to do, too.
So, basically, if you don't really care about having a high-tech phone, and you just want a cute, durable phone, this is for you!
- originality
- shape
- battery life
- good sound during calls
- hard to lose! (because it's pretty big)
- good keyboard (keys close together = fast typing)
- simple format
- looks like a blackberry- picture quality
- no video
- "butt dialing"
- bulkiness
- random shut-offs (not too often, though)

I've had the Blitz for about 2 weeks now, I love it! It's great for texting which I do all the time. The only bad part about it is that the camera sucks! Other than that I love the phone! I would recomend it to anyone!

Haha I agree with the previous post! One of those customers that NO ONE can make happy!!! There are technicians in every single store-get real. Customer service is also located in the U.S. so yeah they are definately pretty fluent in English?? The phone is great for its purpose. Basic and quite easy to use. It is nice and small to fit in a pocket and still has the full keyboard option.

Ok to the verizon hater that is switching to att. If you were unhappy with the customer service at verizon i can't wait to see how happy you are with att. Verizon is the only provider that provides onsite techs in the store. Also, the only provider where you can get the phone replaced in the store. Also did you know that verizon does not hire oversea countries at all for their customer service. All 26 of their call centers are located in the united states. A few being in pittsburgh, pa las vegas, and charleston and wilmington. i hope you enjoy att when you have an issue with your phone and you try to go to the store and they basically wont even talk to you because you are buying anything from you.

5. DON'T BUY ANYTHING FROM VERIZON CUSTOMER SERVICE IS TERRIBLE

I bought the blitz 2 days ago n while it was in my pocket the mute button to the mp3 player got turned on. Simple right? NO! No where in the manual does it say anything about turning it off, nor online. I called customer service -and i use that term very loosely- and after 25 minutes three rounds with the main menu, two people who barely spoke english, and providing my personal info three times i was told i would have to drive 30 miles to a technician to fix it. OMG! I am selling the phone and switching to att. If anything big were to go wrong you would never get it fixed.
None there is absolutely NO reason to buy this phone! Its horrible it sucks you will hate it 12 hours after you get it. Sooner if you call customer service!Everything! Keyboard is small, instructions are minimal, customer service is a complete JOKE, the so called music player holds about 3 songs, cant get it to sync with my computer, camera has no flash, images are terrible, battery life is about 18 hrs. Buy anything other than Verizon.

8. Blitz is a Joy

When I first saw this phone I thought it was very unique looking but had no real interest in it until I actually played with the phone. Not only is the full qwerty keyboard great but the material that the buttons are made of is better than any keyboard I have ever used on a phone. (Pearl, EnV, Alias, Dare, and the V) I think it has alot to do with the fact that they are not made of the standard hard plastic of most cellphone keyboards.
Needless to say after testing the sound on the device for phone calls, speaker, and music I was SOLD!!!
Granted it does not do video and the camera could be better, but show me a person who is inclined to carry a cellphone and I'll show you some one who owns a digital camera.
BEST buttons on a key pad EVER!No video & less than average camera

9. EEWWWWWWWW not a good phone

this phone is really big and bulky and is just an annoying phone because it is so big. Also i have notice that the pain on the buttons starts to rub off if you text alot so in other words after you have used the buttons alot the paint goes away and then you no longer know what the button is for. I was looking foward to getting this phone and was just thrilled the first few days but then soon realized that this was not a good pick at all. You cannot cutomize this phone at all hardley and the camera well lets just say they would have been better off keeping the camera off because every picture is just blury and fuzzy. Eww what a horrible phone

10. Dissappointed

I had this phone a while back. Although i thought it was a REALLY cool looking phone and fun and easy to text on the battery life wasn't good on it for all the texting i do, it would be almost dead by the time i was home from school. Also, the signal service for talking was very dissappointing. My whole family has verizon and they all have different phones that work perfect all around my house. When i brought this phone home i had to go outside my house if i wanted to talk on it. They were deffinitly right when they say it is a phone for pre-teens, even though i am only 15 i would have to go for more working high tech phones. Also, this phone had no video camera, shouldn't newer phones have that? And maybe a better mexa-pixel camera?.
Unique looking
easy textingTalking service
