Samsung Dart T499 (T-Mobile)

Pros: Good design, easy to use, does basic phone functions.

Cons: Overpriced, limited selection of apps, HORRIBLE internal storage space, slow, poor signal quality.

Summary: If you're looking for a reliable starter phone, then this is the one to get. Otherwise, this phone is terrible. I honestly think that this phone is way too expensive for what you're getting out of it. I've been using it as a serious smart phone for about a year, and when I'm not fighting it's poor signal quality or short battery life, I'm dealing with the device's poor internal storage space or frequent (and sometimes random) crashes and self-resetting. Not to mention its serious lag issues. So do yourself a favor if you're planning on buying this phone...and don't. It'll save yourself a lot of time and sanity.
