"Excellent entry level qwerty smart phone"

by AndrooM on December 2, 2008

Pros: It's really easy to use. It only took me like 20 minutes to get used to it.
The picture quality is really good for a camera phone.
The calling quality is pretty good, the voices are very clear.
Nice design.

Cons: Little Mac support. The only way you can sync data with mac is by using wireless bluetooth or a microSD card. You have to download pc software to sync using the usb cable.
The navigation and menus could be a bit better, but they are fine as is.
Summary: It's a great entry level smart phone. It's not going to be as fancy as an Iphone, but for what you pay for the phone is a good value. For someone like me who doesn't want or need all the fancy bells and whistles most smartphones have, this phone fits the bill. I just wanted a phone with a full keyboard so I could text more easily.

I really could care less about browsing the internet on my phone. Thought if I didn't have to pay for the internet then I would :P

I do think the keyboard can be a bit slippery, but it's really minor, it honestly doesn't bother me that much. they should have went with rubber coated keys or something.

Anyway for a simple texting phone the Propel is excellent, I really like it. Like I said the only thing that I really don't like is that you can't use a mac to sync your data using the optional usb cable. You have sync either using a microSD or a computer with bluetooth.

Thank you for submitting your feedback!

i'm pretty sure the OP meant that the propel is NOT mac compatible.

What do you mean by Mac support? Of course you have to use a cable, bluetooth or something to connect the phone to the computer. Did Apple invent telepathy-powered network protocols when I wasn't paying attention? :P What do you mean?
