Samsung Strive

Love this phone. No problems at all. The best part is the slide out QWERTY keyboard and the threaded text messaging is a feature I won't be able to do without now that I've been using it. Also Instant Messaging works very well. Flash would have been nice but daylight photos are very good quality - perfect for posting online. I do not have battery problems - just turn bluetooth off when not in use. For the price - can't be beat!
I would recommend this to a friend!

I love this phone. It has great features and a great look. There is one down fall to this phone you can't use the USB cable to transfer your video's or music to your PC. You have to have a SD card first then you can use the USB cable to transfer the files, other then that it is a great phone and I would recommend it to others.
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight
Cons: cable transfer
I would recommend this to a friend!

Before I purchased this phone, I did considerable research into a replacement for my old Samsung phone. Of all the phones available, the Strive was my first choice. The most important feature for me was the many different music filetypes that the Strive is capable of reading.
There have been some glitches that were mostly my fault and have been solved very easily.
All things considered, I am VERY satisfied with the Strive and would highly recommend it for someone who wants a lot of features, but does not want to go to an iPhone. The Strive is easy to use and has completely fulfilled all of my needs.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Samsung Strive is rich in features

The Strive is my first non-flip phone. I've been pretty happy with it all in all. I purchased a body case for it, for added protection from my clumsy nature. It's been dropped quite a few times now and neither the protective case or the actual phone, looks any worse for the wear. I've been meaning to get a screen protector, but so far the screen shows no sign of scratches from what it's all ready gone through (knock on wood).
I've rarely had any problems with dropped calls, and during a call the reception, in my opinion, comes in crystal clear. My only gripe about it's features is not being able to add a personal signature in text messages. I've had to learn to accept the inevitable "who is this" text message reply. I'm also disappointed with the lack of protective hard cases with a belt CLIP. I gave up the search quite some time ago, but if you like bulky pouches with belt LOOPS, you'll be set for life.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, easy to use, comes with great apps
Cons: lack of belt clip cases, pretty bulky for pockets
