"Perfection"

by Ladyemerald on November 19, 2007

Pros: qwerty keyboard, beautiful screen, slim profile, smooth sliding action

Cons: i dont really know at this point
Summary: i got this phone yesterday, but then my mom took it and said i cannot use it until christmas, but she let me toy around with it for a while, and i absolutely adore it. ADORE. i dont need EV-DO so all this whining and stuff about it not being ev-do... i dont even know what that is, and for 30 bucks (its on sale w/ new 2 year contract until wednesday) its got alot of bang for the buck, i can tell you that. theres not a thing wrong with this phone. its smooth, sleek, classy, and perfect for texting. the keyboard goes away when you dont need it, its just perfect..its great for the average user, who loves the keyboard, but doesn't need all the features of a smartphone...its a good win-win situation. parents dont have to get their text-savvy kids a smartphone, and kids get to have their keyboard. i wanted the white one but sprint failed to note that the white one is exclusive to the sprint store (so you just might wanna know that...)and well, anyway, i love it...and i cannot wait to get to activate it on my number!!! 36 days left!!!

Well its after christmas and there are a few things i want to make note of:
1.) the ringer is VERY loud, not as quiet as some have been complaining about how quiet this phone is, but i have to keep it on level 1! level 5 makes the ringer so loud that its garbled adn its just SUPER loud!
2.) you are NOT forced to use the navigational keys on the front while the keyboard is slid out. on the web you have to, but when browsing through the menus, you can use the volume rocker to go up & down
3.)some have been saying the phone stores only 100 text messages and the only way to delete them is manually. this is not true. set your messaging to auto-delete...problem solved.
4.)i have nothing else to say.! : )
