"Danger ! do not purchase"
Pros: Nice looking but has problems
Cons: sub display
Summary: Got one in January from US Cell. Last week the sub display (outside display) exploded while talking on it. A large dark spot developed where the full charge on the battery pack drained into my hand. The DC charge makes it so you can't let go. It took about 3 seconds to drain the fully charged battery into my hand before I could drop it. I recieved minor burns!
Audiovox help desk person, as well as US Cell can't explain. All I know is I was told I would be without my phone for 4 to 6 weeks while it is being repaired if sent to Audiovox, of course I will still be paying for my plan from US Cell.
Stay away from this piece of junk. As for a replacement phone as per my extended service contaract with US Cell, that will take 4 to 6 days before they can ship me a "loaner" phone that will cost me $75 to accept.
A phone call with a tech from audiovox (over 2 hours on hold) explained it as a problem they have seen a few times, but so far have kept the problem "covered up in house" due to the expected legal action if it got out to the public. Legal action I will be taking! It is not a safe phone !!!

You got a bad apple. Congratulations. I've had mine for more than a year and have never had a single problem.
