for people that want text + touchscreen + some of the benefits of android without any of the advanced features.
What really irks me is when cheapskates buy these types of phones and then come in whining that they dont behave like the SGS2 or OneS. well.. duuuh. If you get a Scion IQ, its not going to win a drag race against a viper.
i wouldnt buy it.. but if you really want to buy it (for 170 you can get a pretty good used phone on ebay/craigslist that blows this away), buy it out right and get on a super cheap prepay plan.

True, but it's still an iQ. Rather have the 'busa engine in an Ariel Atom or KTM X-Bow or a stripped out MX-5 Miata.
I'd do what remix mentioned in that case. Find a used Galaxy S or devent Motorola or HTC phone with decent specs that has been upgraded to at least Gingerbread and go with that. It may not be new with a warranty, but at those prices, just buy a new phone if something goes wrong with the current one

This phone should definitely be free. A basic entry level smartphone at best.

Get the exhibit used off amazon or craigslist, or an lg Quantum for the same price. Android is not optimized to work on low speed processors. I've had several of them, all of them just froze up and had random restarts. Waste of money.

I don't mind tmo getting these pos phones but f**k everyone in the USA knows what an iPhone is and all wants one, so so why so big into the cheapskates? They don't f**king sell!!! People aren't stupid anymore tmo! Get real! Its either mid or high end phones! No wonder tmo is in the bottom of the totum pole. Well the good news is one POS exec is out. Couple more to go and I hope hum will be the next to hum along to his little fantasy island.

I work for T-mobile and I honestly have to say these phones are garbage. They are so cheaply built. If T-mobile wants to keep up with the competition, they need to stop coming out with these types of phones. I would rather rock a damn sidekick 4g then these phones
