Terrible phone!!!

Phone owned for less than a year

Very difficult to use keypad for texting because the phone does not calibrate properly. The picture quality is awful and can not receive pics from other phones. Also, the phone frequently freezes forcing you to restart the phone.

Worst android i ever had

Phone owned for less than a year

I purchased this in late january. i couldnt complain it was a good phone being that it was my first android. but as the months started going i seen that it started actin more slower, internet takes long to find connection. texting cant even keep up with me and sometimes misspell words, also i never seen a phone that would foreclose so much jus to get back to the home screen...battery life is the worst 2 hours and its dead so unless you got sumthin important to talk about i wouldnt talk on it maybe just text...all in all i dnt think i would recomment this phone to anyone..

Not the worst phone

Phone owned for less than a year

I bought it in June or July of 2011. It was my first Android, smartphone, touchscreen. I previously had a Blackberry Curve 8330. It was awesome when I had 2.1, but when I upgraded to 2.2 (Froyo), I instantly saw lagging and problems. Its not a bad phone but it could be better.
