"Best Phone I've Ever Used"
Pros: Great Call Quality/Reception, Good Quality Pictures, No Antenna, Speakerphone, Soft Dial Pad, Good Resolution Screen, Great Design, Lots of Features, 1 Button to Camera Mode, well worth the $
Cons: A minor delay texting (I don't use T9, I'm a really fast texter). Can hold 300 numbers (Everything else was upgraded, except that)
Summary: I've tried many phones from the VI660, A740, MM8300, Treo 600/650 and several other phones. I've tried many phones, many expensive phones that does not compare to this phone. It's a flip phone with great design that has speakerphone and NO antenna. I'm in several buildings where a few of my old phones wouldn't get as good reception as this phone. I'd get 0 to 2 bars with other phones, this phone I would get 4 or 5 in the same buildings. The calls are clear, I got it a day after the sprint store sold it and ever since then I haven't had a problem with it. At $240, under a $100 with a new contract you could not ask for more in a new phone. It's reliable and with the way the phone is designed, it looks like it'll go through a lot without getting hurt like my old phones. One thing I really love about this phone is how you can close the phone on camera mode the front screen of the phone will show a black and white preview of the picture your going to take, so if you feel like taking a picture of yourself without using a mirror, well you can do it with this phone. The texting is much easier with a soft dial pad. I would have given it a 10 but i've only had the phone for almost a week so I don't know what bad can happen in the next week, month ... This is definitely worth a look or try, 240 for the phone is worth it.
