"Great phone & texting device, falls short elsewhere."
Pros: Slim, lightweight design. Dual-hinge design works great, feels very sturdy.

Screen is bright with good colors.

Interface is slow, poorly designed, and inconsistent. Vcast is a gimmick.Summary: This is a great phone and texting powerhouse,... read more

Pros: Compact enough to go into your pocket but big enough to have the awesome qwerty keypad. Samsung did a nice job with this phone. Verizon just locked out to many features.
Cons: Unstable with age. I have had this phone into the Verizon store many times and it keeps rebooting itself. Nearing my 2 yrs with it and ready to let go. Verizon insists on doing their manual reboot. and that just causes me to have more billing issues!
Summary: Skip it. If you are going to pay more than $5... read more
