ive had this phone phone for about a year more or less, i must say its features where great very easy to use but... kinda wish it had a slide out keyboard. first ten mins in i thought "BEST phone EVER!" it unexpectedly shuts off, freezes, cannot be online for a min because it kicks me out..... im trying very hard to replace my lg phone this is just getting dreadful.
Pros: easy to use, Features/Settings
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Don't get unless money is your only issue

I bought this phone a year ago, but even new this phone caused problems. I have watched it freeze, restart, fail to mount my SD card, and all sorts of other problems. I have had it restart in the middle of the night(sometimes it would just shut off and stay off) and disable my alarm clock, I can't really explain it, but it really causes a problem because I almost lost my job a few times, either because my phone shut off and I missed very important calls or I sleep in because it decided to shut off my alarm. I have had a few android phones before this one and never had an issue.
The only thing I can trust this phone to do is to play pandora(skips and freezes a lot,) place calls, and miss texts. So unless you are trying to save money don't buy this because it's not worth the inconvenience.

My First Android Phone
on November 30, 2010

This phone is hands down the best phone available for MetroPCS at the current time. It should keep me happy until a 4G android phone comes out for MetroPCS.
The phone is great, I have had an iPhone 3G and an iPhone 3Gs, and this phone is comparable to them both. The internet speeds wont be as fast but you will get much more customization options if thats what your into.
Things I dont like about the phone:
#1 Its really slippery and slips out of your hand easily, Get a case for it ASAP or it wont last long befor being dropped and breaking.(and im not one to normaly drop phones)
#2 The phone is LOADED and I mean loaded with bloatware apps. There are two Wifi Apps that you cant turn off and beep constantly when i'm within range of any wifi hotspots. One of the apps keeps beeping and asks you to pay for member ship to use it. These programs that come loaded on the phone cant be removed. This alone is giving me second thoughts about the phone.

This was my first Smart phone, so much better than old style flip phones, great value, internet is faster than i thought it would be, battery does not last a long time if your playing games or cruising the internet. but it last's fine if your talking or texting. overall good quality phone for a great price.
I would recommend this to a friend!

The phone could be a little faster and it has too many apps that are not necessary . For the past 4 years Before this phone i had a first generation iphone and then a 3g iphone which i thought i was going to miss but don't, so what does that say....... pretty good.
Pros: Performance, Style/Design, easy to use
I would recommend this to a friend!
