It's a great phone, I'm still getting used to it and the features
overall I've had good luck with it battery is great lasts all day.
I do wish the speaker was better.

This phone was pretty cool when I first bought it a year and a half ago but I feel I could have gotten a much better phone had I waited. This is just a phone with a touch screen, nothing fancy. And when I use the internet it'll constantly ask me about accessing the internet for data prices and such, I have unlimited data and it constantly asking is very annoying. I have talked with a friend who also has this phone and they're not too impressed either.
Pros: Realistic color, Lightweight
Cons: Did not meet expectations, bad internet connextions, volume is too low, easily scratched
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Pretty good phone
on August 16, 2011

Expertise:Expert
Really good phone ive had for a couple years and not had a problem with it.
it is defenitly not a phone for features because all the features you have to pay for and its not good for business either. this phone is probably the best non-smartphone out there.
the problems i seem to have with it are low speaker volume and its more difficult to text than most other phones out there. the phone doesnt take a regular headphone so you have to go and buy an attachement so you can actually use a regular headphone and that attachement breaks easily
other than that its a great phone and its very durable, like extremely durable i drop it alot and one time even walked into a pool with it in my pocket and it still works fine
i reccomend this phine
Pros: Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, small, easy to use
Cons: quiet speakers, low phone volume, hard to text on
I would recommend this to a friend!

Excellent Touch Screen Text Messaging Phone
on October 19, 2011
Posted by: Koryak
from Texas
Expertise:Expert
Overall excellent design.
What I like: Touch Screen that does not require data plan, Small Size, Call button on case calls last number dialed or received while driving, Camera button on case for quick shots. Able to use my 8MB microSD card. Strong phone receiver better than iPhone or Galaxy. Durable, dropped on concrete a dozen times in the past two months. Excellent sound quality for phone conversations.
Dislikes: camera speed slow, 200 text message limit before having to manage messages by deleting or downloading to PC Studio, text messages over 160kb are treated as EMS messages and cannot be exported to PC Studio, cannot save text messages to microSD card and have to delete too often or download to PC Studio. I don't like PC Studio or any phone management software so far including Nokia's or Apple iTunes. PC Studio is not efficient or fast on an older XP computer that I use for my personal data server.

Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, exterior camera button on case, exterior call button on case calls last number, touch screen phone does not require data plan, strong signal receiver, small convenient size
Cons: text message limit to 200, text messages over 160kb not exportable
I would recommend this to a friend!
