Not bad, but needs more memory

Rayspumpkin has owned it for less than year before publishing this review

This is actually my "back-up" phone now, as I switched carriers not because of phone problems, but because I got fed up with Net10's non service and went to Boost. I still use this phone for web browsing, etc hooked up thru Wi-Fi ...just can't call or text with it. First of all, it's small. It's like a baby Android that's not quite grown up yet. Typing can be a challenge. I've seen the camera criticized, but oddly enough I get better pics consistently with it than with my 5mp ZTE Warp camera. My biggest complaint is size of usable internal memory. I'm a bit of an app hound, and found myself constantly having to choose whether I wanted "x" new app badly enough to uninstall another that I possibly needed just as much. Even just updating them would often result in a "not enough memory" message. It has a nice sharp screen, even "though it's small. It feels solid in your hand, and you can get to the SD card without pulling the battery. Decent battery life, even running live wallpaper and multiple Widgets. But when I threw a custom lock screen in and tried to add too many extras with my ADW launcher...crash. Better than basic by far, but nowhere near premium. Good first Android.
