"Good basic phone!"
Pros: +Small design
+Light
+Good and well-spaced keypad
+Good call qualityCons: -Not so solid battery cover
Summary: For a basic phone [calling and texting], this one is great. I'm using it since late December 2008 and it never broke on me. Call quality is good and texting is easier for me because of the large keypad. My previous cellphone had a small and cramped keypad, which was not easy to text.
-The phone can nag you to death [let me explain...]
The only thing that really annoys me is that when you receive a text message, the phone keeps nagging you until you check the message. In my case, the phone vibrates every 5 or 10 minutes. It's really annoying at work and I can't use my cell phone whenever I want.
Otherwise, if you don't care of having the most tricked out phone and just want basic calling and text-messaging, then this phone is a good choice.
