I want this phone but will probably have to get it prepaid… And it costs like $500 without a contract!!
@pokefanandy101 Do you still like it? I’m hopefully gonna get it.
is that blackberry messenger in 2:20 ?
This phone blows, its cool…just it lags all the time and fcs…its horrible. If your gonna pay for this you might as well go to galaxy s phones. Best phone out there hands down.
does this phone have gps navigation turn by turn?
@MKDohrid Yes it does.
@WaKxTV I’ve had this phone since July. For the most part, I like it. It used to give me issues and would freeze but ever since the OTA updatein November, it’s been great. I will admit it still lags sometimes, but I think the amazing keyboard is worth putting up with. Another thing is it is slow at starting up because it takes a while to read stuff off of the sd card when it is starting.
Oh…well isn’t this awkward? You sound a lot like my 6th grade math teacher.
LOVE IT! This is how all reviews should be a short and simple good review i highly dislike the 15 minute videos that people give just to repeat themselves. I am definitely subscribing and getting this phone in a few months
