"Sleek, Sexy -- and Gets the job done!"

by Gry709 on March 18, 2007

Pros: sleek, small!, NOT flimsy, text mess auto-erase, good speakerphone, great battery life, alarm

Cons: time limit for sound recordings, wallpaper doesn't fit screen, voicedial difficulty, camera quality, ringtone quality, battery alarm
Summary: I LOVE my phone! Why? Because it is DIFFERENT from everyone else's, didn't cost a fortune, and works great! It is so TINY and sexy; frankly I would be happy if it didn't work, but I was very pleased when it passed almost all my expectations!

other PROS:
text message auto-erase: no need to sort through / erase texts when the inbox gets full! you can set an option to auto-erase your oldest messages (with exception to the ones marked to save forever)

good speakerphone quality!: great for conversations

great battery life: I use it every day for alarms, general use (3-4 quick calls/day), texts, etc, and I only charge it once a week, if that!

alarm: very easily-navigated alarm menu! three alarm slots to set! (is this standard w Verizon though?)

CONS:
I use the sound recorder a LOT (mostly for driving directions). There is a FRUSTRATING 30-second limit!

the Wallpaper doesn't stretch up-and-down the entire screen! stupid Verizon menu-bars! AUGH!

VOICEDIAL is very difficult to use QUICKLY (takes 3-4 sec to bring up, then 2-3 sec to recognize contact's name) which completely defeats the purpose, except for it's good while driving.

the CAMERA isn't anything special quality-wise, but it works okay. I don't take any pictures regularly.

Ringtones can get distorted if you want them to be really loud, but sound fine at reasonable levels.

Though battery life is great overall, I never get much warning when the phone is about to die. It holds at two/three battery bars for DAYS, but then all-of-a-sudden will decrease/die within a few hours stand-by time or a couple minutes of talking. This could be solved if I just charged it when it showed half battery life, I guess.

Thank you for submitting your feedback!

I didn't know there was a voice recorder! I swear mine doesn't have one. :/
