LG Cosmos (black, Verizon Wireless)

Pros: Just what i was looking for and no need of a damn, stupid data plan.

Cons: Where the speaker is placed on this device. (Good and Bad though)

Summary: The music player is easily fixed when you can transfer full length mp3's into the "sounds" category. There you can hear your songs, no big deal, problem solved to those who like music on their phones. (Micro SD card required for this) Sliding mechanism works fine. Not flimsy nor does it feel like its going to break after a while. I text so much with this device and never had a problem with it. Photo quality can be better, and yes... it is a shame that no videos can be played nor recorded, but who cares? Get a regular camera for that! Voice clarity is perfect; I never had a problem with it. Once in a while I can hear my own voice, but it's RARE and it's probably the other person's phone with the problem. The speaker on this phone can use some work... it has its pros and cons too. PROS: when you're at work and texting a lot, you boss won't hear your phone go off all the time... CONS: the muffled speaker cannot be heard when you're in the other room, so you can miss phone calls here and there. How is this fixable? Turn the phone over and the speaker can be heard clear and loud. (Only bad part about that too is the screen gets scratched from hard surfaces? too fix that, get a screen protector) Hope this helps guys!

ALSO the keyboard on this phone... i thought i was going to have a big problem with it, but suprisingly i i managed nicely. my fingers got used to the keyboard in less than a week. the spacing on the buttons does help a lot too. Also i use the keyboard mroe than the keypad by A LOT, so it doesnt matter to me how clsoe the numerical keypad buttons are clsoe to each other, which is a bit bothersome...
