Pros Small and light weight.
Cons Dropped calls, no number view when phone is closed.
Recommended it? No
The Bottom Line:  Great for kids or someone who doesn't use their cell phone a lot. Not recommended for business use or for those who use their phones more than average.
I paid $100 for this phone through Cingular and realized very early I got ripped off. I use this phone for work and began to hope my clients didn't call me on it. 75% of my calls were dropped and I lost my service every time I turned around. One minute I had a full signal and the next (I did not move) it was gone.

The volume button didn't lock on this phone and when I had it in my pocket, it would turn down on it's own. Once it went down all the way, I would miss calls because I didn't hear it ring.

This phone does not have a display to show the number when it rings. You have to manually flip it open to see and then close it again if you choose not to answer it. Not a big deal really, but I found it annoying after a while.

Overall, I don't recommend this phone to anyone who is going to be using it for business. I think it's great for a teenager or someone who won't be using it a lot. It is light weight and small, which makes it easy to carry around. Other than that, I wasn't thrilled with it.
