"Closest thing to a smart phone for my budget" on by logisticalstyles
Pros: The GPS navagation is a great feature on this phone. The web browser works well, and the access to hotmail and other accounts as well as instant messenger service.
Cons: The keyboard is kinda cramped.
Summary: This phone is great. It had been two years since I last purchased a cell phone. I was amazed at how many functions this phone has. I really wanted to get a blackberry or some other smart phone, but I didn't want to get a contract. Metro PCS offers this same phone for thier customers. The turn-by-turn voice navagation is a great feature. I like how the phone can be set to announce the name of each incoming call. I need to get a memory card so I can use the music player on the phone. The camera is okay, but nothing special. I can check and update my facebook account from this phone. I can also upload photos to facebook directly from the phone. The phone is very light and the auto key lock feature is nice as well. The calls are clear and there are many applications for this phone.

"A good messaging phone" on by BeamerMT
Pros: I love the interface of the phone, the keypad and overall design. The fact that I can one click my email is really nice too, and with the screen being as big as it is, it makes reading texts and emails very nice.
Cons: The keyboard is rather cramped, but you get used to it. GPS functions do not seem to work well inside of a car unless your phone is near the glass windows but that could be weather and other factors.
Summary: I really like this phone. Like I said the Email program is easy to use, the GPS system is easy to use and the screen is big and bright. The keyboard is a bit on the small side, but honestly you can't expect much from the form factor. The speaker is mono but for playing your basic ring tones it works, its also very loud (user adjustable) so if you have the phone in a bag or pocket, you shouldn't have any problem hearing it go off. Battery life is really good as I have not had to charge the phone yet since I picked it up 24 hours ago and I have been making calls, doing web, email, text messaging and other things with it and its only lost 1 bar out of 4 on the battery life meter. All in all its a really good mid ranged phone.

"horrible phone.." on by CaptGeneral
Pros: looks nice? can type on it pretty quick..
Cons: text messages fail A LOT! whether you are receiving OR sending..
Summary: honestly this has got to be one of the worst phones I have ever owned, I have NEVER had a cell phone tell me "one or more messages were not sent" or some other type of fail message.. I have never owned a phone that someone claims to have text me or even sent a voice mail message and yet I don't receive them, very unreliable. My wife has the same phone, purchased at the same time and her phone is even worse than mine.

"PHONE SUCKS!!!!! Strongly Urge You To Not Get It." on by FreeFormSucks
Pros: This phone is great with texting, its great with phone calls, its nice to carry around, you don't have much problems with it, you don't have to problem of sliding it out constantly.. Great camera
Cons: Memory gets full fast even with a memory card, when its humid out, the back sticker turns red and you're basically screwed, shuts off constantly, has major issues, can't txt ppl when someone's calling you, deletes text messageing also, cant recieve pictur
Summary: Bottom line is, this phone can be nice, but can also be a hinderance.. Causes not only minor issues, but major ones along with it. Please, i urge you not, to get stuck with this phone like i am.
