"Interested? Think again!"
Pros: Size, outside controls, sleek and sexy
Cons: battery life, outside buttons easily bumped, memory stick location, FREEZES UP
Summary: I thought this phone would be a simple, easy, dependable phone for my next 2 year contract! Boy was I wrong!
First off, the phone has a button on the right had side (where your thumb hits it if held) and when bumped, a voice asks for you to say a command...even when on silent or vibrate!! This is very annoying and embarrassing when in your pocket during a meeting. There is no way to turn this off, only adjust the sensitivity.
Also, the phone has frozen on me at least ten times in two weeks when the button mentioned above got pushed and the screen was opened to turn it off and also froze when texting long messages. A white screen appears and I would have to turn off my phone and turn it back on. Then you are prompted to decide if you want your calendars updated to the correct time zone which takes forever....it almost restarts without losing any contacts or information. Very odd.
The battery life is a joke. I have had this for two weeks, making regular calls and texts throughout the day...nothing out of the ordinary...and after the end of the day it is almost dead. My old phone lasted 3 days without charging under my usage with a new battery.
Another annoyance for users who keep their phones on vibrate is this annoying feature where when scrolling though the menu on your phone, when going from the top of a contact list directly to the bottom, for example, the phone vibrates once. It also does it on the main menu when you hit a certain, random, item.
