Motorola Rival (purple, Verizon Wireless)

Summary: Well, my KIN2M decided that it was going to not turn on the screen anymore (backlight out) and I'm forced to use the Rival. It's actually not that bad of a phone, but family has had increased shut offs, screen going off, going out completely, one slid it open to find it hanging by a cable. It was fixed by an updated rival which fixed the software problems with shutting down, but this one (updates) will still occasionally reboot when it conveniently thinks to, causing you to miss your calls and or texts.

When I first got this phone i had came from a Voyager, let me tell you that phone was really good, tons of options, but with full touch, the battery wouldn't hold a steady charge, causing me to fish out a dead phone every time I'd reach in my pocket.

overall, if you want to take a chance that it will screw up on you, get it, because if it doesn't, it actually works pretty good.

Summary: I had to replace the original Rival because of technical problems, only to have different and worse ones with the replacement phone. Would not recommend.
