"I would say the Slide is better, but not for some"
Pros: SLIDE: smaller size, better screen than SK 3, Motorola quality, cheaper. LX: Bigger screen.
Cons: SLIDE: Smaller screen, no fashionable "swing" mechanism, still no 2 mp camera, and still no video taking abilities. LX: Pricey, bigger size, still no 2 mp camera, and still no video taking abilities.
Summary: I would say that the Slide is a better choice. First of all, it has a smaller size, physically. It no longer has the decidedly breakable "swing" screen machanism, and the screen itself is better than the SideKick 3's, even if it's not any bigger (th... read more >>

"Good phone, but a WARNING for non-web users..."
Pros: Great form, smallest sidekick yet, cool disco light, very attractive. Support from T-Mobile has been fabulous.
Cons: "Nag screen" if you don't subscribe to web services, memory slot behind battery is bigger problem than I anticipated.
Summary: I was looking for a cool phone with decent camera and full thumb pad for text messaging. Sidekick Slide had those features and much more. Liked the look and solid feel of Slide, never liked the 'swivel' sidekicks in the store.
I soon learne... read more >> -

"Dissapointed - Please consider this issue before buying!"
Pros: Great device - messaging is a snap, email is useful and the interface is really user-friendly
Cons: The Web Browser is completely non-functional. The call quality is okay and the small headphone jack is annoying
Summary: I just purchased this phone with a new 2 year contract from the T-Mobile store in my local mall just last week. I had Verizon for about 8 years prior and thought it might be time to try something new. I've always liked the Sidekicks but thought they... read more >>

Pros: Smaller/thinner, no gimicky swivel screen, Motorola made, possible Wi-Fi
Cons: Possibility of no Wi-Fi, no video, lame camera
Summary: Unlike the LX, this is an upgrade. It gets rid of the swivel, its significantly smaller, has nearly the same quality of screen (despite the hype the LX is getting), and finally the ability to put on your own ring tones. No more terrible sidekick r... read more >>
