So far i've had this phone, i haven't had any problems: no freezeing, no glitches. But i am not completely satisfied with this phone.
The worst thing about this phone is its camera. This is the WORST camera i've ever had in a phone, and it has left me very disappointed. The camera is only a 2mp. When you take pictures outside, they look pretty great, but you have to stand completely still and can't fidget at all when taking a picture. Taking a picture indoors....pointless. It has the worst quality and you can see the picture choppy and in squares, no smooth edges. You also cannot edit your pictures, at all. You can't rotate them or edit the color imagine. If you want to set a picture as wallpaper, and it's turned the wrong way, you can't change it. It will have to be upside down/side ways unless you take it right the first time. Also when you take a picture, you cannot zoom. You can only zoom in, after the picture was taken, and then you can't crop the imagine to the zoom. It drives me crazy that i can't edit how the picture looks in the backround. I took a picture of a lawn and i just wanted the lawn turtle as my back round, but didn't get it because i couldn't zoom. Except when i was looking through the album i had a chance to zoom in, totally pointless. The only nice thing about the camera that i found was it has some face reconiztion, but it's not worth it. I took pictures with my family at a museum with it, and it couldn't reconize the faces because the camera quality is so bad.
Besides the horrible camera, the phone has some amazing features that i am in love with. It has a shake option where, depending on how many times you shake it, it will go to a different short cut. Ex: 1st shake = create a message
2nd shake = media player
3rd shake = inbox
You can also make all the short cuts imaginable so you don't have to go in the menu at all, and everything is one touch and very easy to use.
My favorite feature on the phone is the draw panel. You can draw a letter and customize where you want it to lead you. I draw a heart on the screen to call my boyfriend, which i think is really cute. I also can write a M and it calls my mom. Or you can put a G and it goes to games. You could do it random too and have a Q go to new messages. I am in love with this; it makes my phone so much easier to use, and it's so simple!
The battery life is just OK. it's not the worse battery i ever had, but it isn't the best. You can't sleep over at someone's house without bringing your charger along, if you are a heavy user. I am a heavy texter and the battery dies once a day for me, sometimes if i am lucky, the battery will last a day in a half.
For texting, this phone is great! it rarely fails to send a message and the conversation style texting is really helpful. If you don't like that style you can just click on a message and hit reply and it will look as if it doesn't have it. There is a t9 option that helps you spell words correctly, or guess what you are trying to say. I love that! I usually have some problems spelling and it always fixes it for me. The keyboard is also my favorite keyboard, that i have ever texted on; it is so easy to use! Since i have recieved my phone, the Sym key doesn't work. I am not sure if this is a problem with all phones, or just my phone. It gets really annoying that i cannot go to symbols without going through a lot of different options. My biggest grieft about the keyboard is, it has no arrow keys. So when you are texting and you make a mistake, you have to use the touch screen to find it go back to where your mistake was, without deleting everything. The font is also really small when you are sending the message, and would be horrible if you don't have good eyes. When you reply to a message you can only see the first 2 lines you write, without scrolling up or down. It gets frustrating if you are sending a longer, or serious text message and you want to check for spelling/grammar errors.
So far, with the lock key, i have had no problems butt dialing, which many people have had with other phones. The phone is very light weight, and almost squareish. Because of its design, it some times feels like you can easily drop it our of your hands, but there is sort of a grip on the back that keeps it from falling. They have not made covers for this phone yet, which really disappoints me, but I guess i just have to wait.
My friends have called my phone an easter egg, even though it is very slim, it does look easter egg like.
The imagine quality and brightness of the screen is pretty decent, except the pictures you take. Its not HD or anything amazing like that, but it still is pretty cool. I love the wall papers this phone comes with.
The touch screen is pretty responsive and great, except for the home screen. I don't understand why it would work extremely bad at the home screen, but in the menu screen fantastic. Because you can't switch through the home screens to well is the reason i have made so many short cuts. The short cuts are so helpful that it makes you forget about how bad the touch screen is.
The video camera is worse than the camera. It would be better if they removed it from the phone completely than have such a useless tool. You cannot even reconize what are in the videos.
I have never had a 5mp camera on my phone, this is all coming from someone who just updated from a 1.3mp camera!
I do not have web access on this phone, but I have heard it was really bad,
The speaker is amazing. You can hear things crystal clear and it makes listening to music, and talking on the phone a good experiance. You don't always have to ask someone to repeat themselves.
Overall, this phone has the worst camera that it could possibly be created, but the texting and features really wow me. The phone is very dependable, but i have yet to drop it so i am not sure how it would work if it fell. I am very protective over this phone, considering I paid so much for it. It is not my favorite phone i ever had, but I am not dying to get rid of it. I am not sure if it was worth the money or not. If a camera is important to you than DO NOT GET THIS PHONE!! But if the texting and great features are more important, go ahead. There are better choices out there.
