Okay Product That Lacks Software Updates. Hard to use a phone that freezes when you want to use the GPS or look at pictures or anytime it goes to update apps. But for useability and function I would have to give it a 2/5 due to the constant freezing and resetting and overloading of the battery. It also survived countless drops to the floor before the screen finally cracked. Mine fell out of my car while driving and got ran over by another car and I put the batter back in and it still worked.
On the plus side they are pretty durable. Next thing you know you just went from 90% battery to 5% battery. The phone will freeze up when trying to open your picture gallery or other apps, Overload and drain the battery, and then reset and turn back on. The processin power of this phone is minimal. You can't even use the camera if you do not put an external memory card in. The features of the phone are pretty nice with a good camera but it has limited storage space on the phone (only 135MB) which most of it is taken by the android operating system and factory installed apps that you can't get rid of. Me and my wife both have these phones and I have to say they are not very good. The Camera (no zoom WHY!?!?) Read full review The Touchscreen (doesn't work under low power situations) the small QWERTY that it uses is very easy to type on. I do a lot of text entry and when using the soft keys it takes me 5X the time to do anything because of all the correcting. The reason I bought this phone is that it was an inexpensive T-Mobile 4G slider.
it will last 12 hours on a good day if you don't play games or make a lot of calls. I have used several other android phones and I find this one fast and easier to use. the Android functions are very good as is the layout. it plays video without problems and the sound is good. but no zoom (odd) it also plays games well and the touch screen is good. as for the good side of this phone it has some good camera features the panorama is my favorite. then while drying it apart in the sun a sudden thunderstorm moved over and drowned it again. I fell off my bo at into a lake with it in my pocket. but the back key and a couple of the letters on the kb no longer worked (u turned up the volume and the back key put out 7&z or something like that D just died) the second time was it's doom. this died the first time when a little spilled tap water went across the table getting a little water into the back plate. don't use it in the rain don't get it damp. if you charge it with a power supply that doesn't provide a lot of power the phone's touch screen won't work while charging. as phones go it does have a few oddities. This Review is a combination of both phones. This is my second Sidekick phone the first was drowned.
