  • "Gorgeous Phone - Great keyboard. Bad battery life"
    4.0 stars
    on by catsf

    Pros: 1. Amazing screen.
    2. Great build
    3. Love the slide down keyboard
    4. Windows Phone OS rocks

    Cons: 1. Battery life is poor.
    2. Connection tends to show weak connection but phone always seems to work.
    3. Some issues with wifi (though Dell customer was very good and sending me a new one).
    4. Kind of heavy.

    Summary: So I'd echo the review. I really like this phone. The screen is amazing and the build quality is really good. It's a clean high quality phone. The keyboard is not blackberry level but good. It's a huge upgrade from the virtual keyboard on my iPhone.

    The downsides are it is heavy. Once I popped the otter box case on it, the phone weighed half a pound. Battery life is pretty weak. Has trouble making it through the day (but that may be because I use it so much more than my iPhone because of the keyboard). I had some trouble with wifi (the screen would freeze). Otherwise it's a great phone.

    I also have to say how much I love window phone 7 OS. Coming from iPhone my standards were pretty high but I think WP7 amazingly matches iPhone OS in pure usability. There are so many little touches that are great that make you think, wow, this was well designed. If they fix a couple of the obvious things (multi-tasking, cut-and-paste, and landscape mode) WP7 would be better than iOS and much better than Android.
