I''ve own this phone for about a year now and now I''m looking for a replacement. I absolutely can''t stand the phone.CON 1:Texting is ridiculously hard. There are 2 ways to text. Using an onscreen QWERTY keyboard, or using the onscreen writing recognition ability. The Recognition really is a great idea and fun at first, but I find that it almost never can accurately recognize a full word. I have to write in all caps in order for it to distinguish letters well. a o e u p all get mistaken. ! = i. So I have to rely on caps, which I don''t like writing in. And even then it is prone to errors. Sure you will wow people when you show them the ability, but its kind of impractical to actually use. The other way to text is with a QWERTY keyboard onscreen. Howerver, the each letter is about the size of the stylus, which means you have to use the stylus in order to accurately text. Even a childs thumb would be too big to accurately press the keys. Which brings me to my next point:Con 2:The stylus. Yes the stylus inclusion is nice, especially since its almost required. It has a nice extending ability so that it fits in the phone but can be extended to better fit in your hand. Sadly I lost mine, which is really not that hard because it is kind of slippery and has no real grip. So i figured, no big deal, I''ll buy a new one. Sadly, because the phone is not offered in the US, the stylus''s are not either, so you can''t buy the right one. I tried a few different ones, such as DS''s, but none fit into the slot correctly. I found ones to order over seas but it would cost me almost [...] bucks for a 20 cent product.... So now I have to use the phone with my fingers, which is next to impossible. My main purpose of the phone is texting, which like I said is hard without the stylus, so I often find myself wanting to send long texts but too lazy to put forth the effort to do so.Cont 3: The Voice Dialing is too easy to activate. Its just a button on the side that you press if the phones open. Sometiems when I''m using my phone I accidently push it which starts up a loud and annoying speech. PLEASE SAY A COMMAND! PLEASE SAY A COMMAND! DID YOU SAY DAD? DID YOU SAY DAD? Its extremely embarsing when it goes off. It should really require a double click or something to go off.Con 4: The vibration is iffy. Sometimes I can barely feel it vibrate in my had.Con 5: Cheep. If I drop it, the battery cover pops off, the battery flies out, etc. And I really don''t drop it that much. The clear screen has a large crack in it. The silver siding has peeled. My phone within a few months looked like it was years old. At least it has a protector over the touch screen! Plus now the flip cover flies open and is very loose.Con 6:Smudges. Most touchscreen devices are like this but the screen gets really gross looking. They should at least provide a cloth...Con 7: The charger. It comes with a wall charger, but I did something dumb and broke it... which I don''t blame them for, however, again I can''t get the charge in the us. I have to order it overseas... So now I rely on the usb charger which is a pain when I want to plug it in at night and talk to my girlfriend in bed.Con 8: Low battery. All I do is text. I don''t call much, I don''t play games or use the internet at all. I just text, and yet I have to charge the thing almost daily. The vibrations kill the battery. And I think the system itself is just draining resources and battery life.Pros:Copy Paste Select All abilities. Makes texting and typing easier.Texts open in separate windows, as do programs. You can keep several things running at once without noticing a slow down.Good calendar system.Excellent sound quality and signal with AT&T. I''ve used 3 phones including this one in my area which has a weak AT&T coverage and the other phones were not able to hold calls well and lost connection a lot. But this phone gives me signal in areas I never could before. And its always crystal clear. Its something I really love about this phone.Its cool. Every time I pull it out in public, I get, is that a phone? Can I see it? Thats so cool. They love the clear cover. And I love the attention. Sadly it does not function up to its appearance.
