Great Phone
Phone owned for less than a month

No major issues so far apart from what I listed under "cons." Most of my issues have to do with the difference between this and my old phone (BlackBerry Curve 8530). The email isn't as integrated as with BlackBerry, the LED only features 2 colors, and a few other things that slip my mind right now. Apart from that, I love this. I have the Boost Mobile version on the unlimited plan with shrinkage. Contrary to what I though, my shrinkage did NOT start over when I switched to the Android plan (extra $5 over normal) from the BlackBerry plan ($10 more than normal). I maintained my shrinkage status and actually saved $5 per month.

My only issues apart from that are listed in Cons.

Love it
Phone owned for less than 3 months

I love this phone! I am under sprint so the phone works perfect. My dad got it for me about 2 months ago but i spilt a little water on it and it has moments where it totally freaks out but its not because the pgone is bad quality. Ive never had a problem with it with the short time ive had it. But thats exactly it i havent had it that long so of course it should still work perfectly. Its easy to use and i love the keyboard. I had a smart phone before this one but it broke and had to go to a basic full keyboard phone and i hate when i have to learn how to use a touch screen keyboard because it can be tough so this phone is perfect for people who like samrt phones but not the touch keyboard. Perfect for a teens first phone. It is bulky but then again it does have a keyboard. It takes great pictures better then most phones ive taken some good quality pictures with my phone and it has a front camera as well. It comes with a flash so that comes in handy. The internest works well usually but there have been times that ive lost the 3G. The battery goes pretty fast if you use it for games and stuff thats meant to happen with smart phones though because so many things are running at one it kills the battery faster. Its like a mini computer and it comes in handy with i need the internet or when im just bored. I recomend this phone for people.

Better then i anticipated
Phone owned for less than 3 months

I was very anxious to get this phone for awhile. Come time to upgrade i was torn between the Transform Ultra and the ZTE Warp..Im a heavy texter with big fingers so most touch screen ive had in past i didnt get along with and ive been spoiled in the past on slide out QWERTYS with phones like the Samsung Gravity and Sanyo Innuendo..so with the Transform Ultra i figured id get the best of both worlds and so it does seem..overall i love this phone..its no HTC but it gets the job done. a few apps and you can get your phone looking pretty much anyway youd like. Some of the things i really liked about the phone was for the most part this phone is very snappy and responsive. apps install and load up super fast..specs say 512mb RAM but phone+ system apps only read 388Mb of TOTAL ram ( not just available). The battery life on this thing is amazing! i usually have email open with internet radio apps and a game ect going and battery depletes very slowly..on the downside it takes forever to charge though. The slide out QWERTY is nice..very large and easy to use..though ive found the Speech to text to be more fun and faster ( might of gone with the Warp if i would of known it..)..on the down side i would of liked to see a higher screen resolution that also supported 16m colors and not just 256k..higher res camera..but thats neither here nor there gotta keep in mine this IS a Boost phone.and thats what my soon to get HTC Amaze 4g is for..oh call quality is subpar and i had to use Volume enhancer apps because the phones speaker is pitiful..even at max volume notifications are very hard to hear unless its quiet around you
