The Bottom Line:
If you are looking for something great, this isn't for you. It's a decent phone, so it will do, but go for something cheaper for the quality.
I bought this phone after my last one broke, and was pretty hopeful for this one as I have had bad luck with getting good-working phones. But alas, it did not exceed (or reach) my expectations.
The phone is very nice looking, and easy to use, but that is about it. I am not very pleased with the external touch screen. It is only functional when to view ONE missed call or ONE text message. It is kind of nice not having to open your phone to view these. However, if you have numerous alerts it is not usable.
The texting is also something that I do not like. The prediction is nice sometimes, but it is also somewhat difficult to text the word you want. Also, its very easy to accidently send a message in the middle of texting. I do like how it keeps a record of who you most frequently text, but I would rather have the most recent recipients.
One thing I do really like is the camera, though. It's very clear, and if you bring it up and close your phone you can take a picture with your phone closed. I suppose a lot of phones do that but it is a perk that I like on this phone.
