Worst phone I have ever had

Overall Rating:
2.5 out of 5

From: fisherville, KY (United States)
Experience: 2 Years
Pros: Nothing

Cons: It dials at random.

Summary: I have had this phone for almost 2 years. the warranty is only for 1 year. I did buy the insurance. I have never went over my minutes, but with this phone dialing out at random I have over $300.00 in phone overages. Customer service says sorry about your luck.

Sidekick 3

By: Michael price on Wednesday, September 19, 2007
From: Tucson, AZ (United States)
Experience: 3 Months
Pros: The swivle screen is very cool and fun to play with, and the screen is a goodsize. The reception on this phone is very good, and the scrool is easy to use. I like the buttons and they are well placed to be easy to use. Having the IM, texting, and e-mail is nice and very handy. The internet is decent for a phone and it browses well especially for MySpace.

Cons: This phone is big and scratches very easily. it does not have the capability to send picture messages or capture video, and the camera is less than satifactory. it does not have costom ringtones that you can set, but you have to set the ring tone for each contact individually. it has no alarm clock, no calculator, and the organizer options are limited to say the least.

Summary: Over all, I am happy with this phones features as far as texting,Iming, and web browsing, but it is lacking in some basic and necessary features that the simplest of phones have. it looks cool, but looks can be decievong. i warn anyone who want to buy this "phone" if it is worthy of that catigorization. I recomend a PDA instead.

From: Houston, TX (United States)
Experience: 36 Days
Pros: Lots of functionality. Web page loads fast. 20 dollars a month for unlimted Web and Text through T-mobile

Cons: It takes a while to figure out how to use it. Does not allow you to customerize your phone.

Summary: The Sidekick 3 is an awesome phone. Web pages load quickly. Great keyboard for emails, instant messenging and texting. The only down side is that you can not customerize your phone. That is you can not load your own java programs or ringtones. You only have limited selections from the Danger website.
