  • "Great prepaid phone!!!"
    on by BabyNewt

    Pros Slide out QWERTY keyboard is solid and much more user friendly then the touch screen. I also find the touch screen to be much more responsive then previous models...very user friendly.

    Cons I haven't found any yet!

    Summary Great phone for the money! This is my 4th Samsung phone, and I'll be sticking with this one for a while. It has everything I love about the touch screen models, plus the QWERTY keyboard...awesome phone!!

    I got my phone through Amazon.com for about $30 less then it is offered by most places - check it out!

  • "Worth the Money!"
    on by ayantheworld

    Pros comfortable keyboard

    Cons small screen
    battery life

    Summary If you wanna go boostmobile, and wanna type on a physical keyboard, this is the one to go with. I only wish the screen was bigger and the battery life was longer, but I have these gripes with 90% of the phones out there. Best phone for the price, period.

  • "Very good phone."
    on by warrhunt

    Pros Fast for its price range. The combination of a 1ghz snapdragon with a 3.5 screen allows this phone to perform task very well. There are many phones with a 1ghz snapdragon that have to push data to bigger screens which seems to tax the processor. I have no

    Cons The screen can be a tad to responsive. For instance I have to use my thumb to move icons around as using any other finger will cause the app to drop or open accidentally. Knit picking here but I wish the back cover was more solid less cheap feeling. I lik

    Summary This phone is not going to win any awards for new innovations. It does not have the biggest/best screen, the fastest cpu, or the thinnest design (although it is fairly thin for having a full pull out keyboard). But seriously that is not what people are looking for who go to Boost Mobile (yes it would be nice). What it is, is a good solid Android device that performs very well at a good price.

  • "Good Phone, and Fornt Facing Camera Addition Was Cool!"
    on by miguelm564

    Pros Front Facing Camera,Slide Out Ketboard,Flash On Main Camera,1 Ghz Processor.

    Cons 3 MP Camera!

    Summary Its A Great Phone Overall I Just Wished It Had A Better Camera And If It Had A Bigger Screan.

  • "Poor support from Boost and Samsung"
    on by noenigma

    Pros Android, small, works when it works.

    Cons Overheat problem, failure to repair, low quality camera and screen. Iffy reception. Sprint ID is kinda dumb.

    Summary Don't buy this phone. It fails with overheat, burnout, and poor support. I am sending it back a 3rd time in only 5 months.
    There are a number of stories online about this phone overheating and ultimately failing to charge, the charge circuit burns out. I have sent it in twice, each time taking 10 days. It is overheating AGAIN. It seems it is manufactured with a defect which has not been fixed. One person claims he sent his back 8 times before switching to a different phone. Samsung support is okay but they use the slowest shipping possible and can take 4-5 days in repair. Boost did not offer a replacement and wanted to charge an extr $10 when I got the phone back, even though I had already paid the setup charge. Then they wanted to charge an extra $40 to setup a replacement phone I used as a temporary.
    Do not use it as a business phone, you may not be able to take calls for extended periods.
