"A fair phone with draw backs, beware of bluetooth"
2.0 starson by lt2211Pros: Thin easy to use
Cons: Bluetooth problems
Summary: An ok phone but I was dissapointed to learn the built in bluetooth was not compatible with my Garmin GPS other SGH t xxx are compatible but not the 139. Also doesn't work with my car bluetooth. So what good is Bluetooth that doesn't work with all devices.

This poster nailed the problem with this phone. If you get a prepaid minimal plan and want to share photos with this phone - Bluetooth is NOT an option. It is deceptively advertised in most places as having Bluetooth connectivity when in fact it only has two "profiles":
1. Headset,
2. Hands Free; that's all folks ... so forget interchanging anything with any phone and forget connecting to your computer, GPS devices in your dreams for this pill box with a camera. To transfer any pics or messages you will need to use a MM message to an internet email address and pay for it on your prepaid plan, defeating much of the reason for giving a hoot for bluetooth. Just a headset or hands free. Not general Bluetooth. Deceptive advertising. Period. Check out the Nokia 2720 ant this time if you want real Bluetooth. -
