I like it!

By: Duane Smith on Wednesday, November 14, 2007
From oceanside (United States)
Experience: 7 Days
Pros: Slim, Light, easy to use and screen is easy to see, stereo speakers

Cons: Audio quality a little "bassy" or deep. 1.3 mg pix camer, other models have a 2 mg pix

Summary: I have only had it a few days but it sems good. Not as flashy as others but nice. The other reviewer said the front case screen would not display the time. I thought that at first but read the manual and found you hold down the outside buttons for a few seconds and the outside display comes on. You can also play music from the front case. Reading the manual helped resolve any problems I had with the phone. Most phones have small screens and are hard to see sometimes. This phone is similar but the screen is contrasty and works for me. Most of the phones I looked at had similar functionality. We liked the next model up in the Samsoung line (same software but a 2 mg pix camera) but it had tiny keys. Overall this phone had more of what I wanted. My wife and I got these on a two for 1 deal. We are very happy. TIP Don't buy you accessories at Verizon. Walmart has a better deal on chargers etc.
