"This phone is good for the money you pay for it"
on by floridabozPros The full keyboard
unlimited plan
(pro and con) interface is clean but dated
Great "poor mans" phone
sounds goodCons This is a long list, but i still like the phone more then i dislike it
screen should be a lot better
internet and text can sometimes be painfully slow
Dated interface
lack of features, I think they could of did a lot more with what they had
cameraSummary I got this phone to upgrade from my old simple boost mobile phone, i do realize this company does not charge much for there service, but i do feel with modern technology they could of did more with what they had. I hope to see improvements in there network soon. That been said. I love the feel of the keyboard, It is designed in a way that allows you to use it without issue. The buttons don't push easy, so if you have it in your pocket, the chances of the phone making calls is unlikely.
Overall, i feel its a great phone, but could use improvements. If you want a full keyboard phone without paying the blackberry prices, then this phone is something you should concider -
"No battery life"
on by jeanyriosPros I like the durability of the case. It is for rought play and very durable in terms of its physicality. I have dropped it so many times and it has never come apart. The walkie is the best tech feature on this phone.
Cons This model has no battery life it seems the moment you take it off the charger it goes on yellow. It has very poor reception and when it decides not to download text IT DOESN'T. The camera is of poor quality.
Summary It is a good phone for quick communication with the kids. Fast walkie and physical durability. If you are a heavy texter and like the web on the phone this will not be the phone for you. If you happen to be the angry through your phone against the wall type this phone will last you forever.

"Worst phone I've ever used since 1999"
on by LeanneCWoods10Pros Sound quality, looks good....
Cons Poor resolution, texting is awkward, very short battery life, camera res could be better, internet is slooooow. Great phone if you have never owned one before I suppose...
Summary The battery doesn't last long at all, usually about 24-36 hours give or take. The screen looks like something from 10 years ago. Accessing the internet is not easy. Texting is "weird"; don't like the way it displays--old fashioned looking--reminds me of DOS. Can't get the stupid thing to stop beeping after I get a text--Never had to read the manual to do basic stuff before but I guess I'll have to for this phone. It feels like a cheap phone, which I guess it is sort-of. The camera doesn't take the best pictures, either.

"Charge it!!"
on by Dalilama30Pros Great call quality - had the strongest signal inside my home on this phone over any other cell phone I've had in 15 years. Decent QWERTY key pad.
Cons Horrible battery life - required almost nightly charging and I did not even use the phone constantly.
An app for an alarm, with no way to set it for just Mon-Fri?
Horrible web access. Could not connect to Twitter.Summary I replaced this phone in just over a week with the Sanyo Incognito (which also switched me from Boost's Nextel network over to their Sprint Network).
