"Unhappy with phone" on by krisnow18
Pros: It looks nice, and is reasonably easy to use.
Cons: This phone just doesn't work well. People constantly tell me they cannot hear me; I can't leave a message. Phone overheats and shuts down.
Summary: Nothing but problems. People tell me they cannot hear me properly, I am unclear sounding and garbled. God forbid I leave a message for someone, as nothing is heard. The phone overheats. The phone shuts down when it gets hot. I have been to my carrier 4 times now. I was told nothing was wrong the first 3 and they changed the battery last time. It is still overheating. Did I get a lemon? Now told I need to to go see a technician who is in another town. My old phone worked much better, clearer and never overheated. I didn't even change the battery for 3 years til the phone actually went dead! I don't leave it on during the work day. It is probably on, at most, 2 hours a day. The phone should not be doing this. I don't like it at all. I am one of the few people who doesn't text, doesn't take pics with my camera - I make and receive phone calls and that is it.
I finally took my phone to a technician. He didn't even try to fix it. He just handed me a new one. So far it has not oveheated. However, it still has issues. I turn it on and 10 minutes later it is dead. You can see the front screen but nothing when you open the phone. I have to take the battery out and put it back in. I DO NOT LIKE THE PHONE AT ALL.

"It works for me" on by jr_sanford1
Pros: Battery life is great | Starts up fast | Plenty of memory for my use | Easy to dial | Fits in my pocket easily | Durable - I've dropped this a few times and it still works great | Bluetooth works great
Cons: Ringer volume could be louder | battery cover comes off to easy
Summary: This phone works for me because all I need is a phone that makes calls and receives calls.

"Basic phone, with some coolness." on by nailed2thegun
Pros: It's kind of a seaweed green. http://www.flickr.com/photos/54527470@N00/sets/72157600032152343. I like the unique color. It looks black in medium to low light. Good battery life, VGA camera, speaker phone, bluetooth, easyedge, and voice dial.
Cons: Like my last phone, which happened to be a Samsung, wallpaper and ringtones are pretty much crap. It should be just as easy to put on some cool wallpaper and ringtones, preferable unique to the phone.
Summary: I have had no problems or complaints (so far) with hearing the other party clearly, with or without speaker phone. I did have a call dropped over at a friend's house, not sure if it was the network or the phone. This was the only time I lost a call, so that's pretty good. To me, the coolest part of the phone is that you can change the theme and the outside clock to purple. That rocks!
