Purchased this phone last week when my Behold fell and broke. Have been with T-Mobile since 1998 and have never had problems with upgrades, but this one was not quite ready for the public. I have had it 4 days and am sending it back. First off, all the downloads that I purchased, even the recent ones, could not transfer and after 3 hours on the phone with T-Mobile technicians, they were stumped as to why. After resetting the phone no less than 3 times and reconfiguring it to plain ringtones for my mother and sisters, it still would only ring with the T-mobile default. And as one customer review said, outside in the light, say good-bye to trying to read or see anything on the screen.
The very first day that I used it outside of the house, the battery (which is slated to last up to 4 hours) died within 1 hour and I had not spoken to anyone nor sent any text messages on it. I have yet to have a smartphone in my possession and have only dealt with T-Mobile all these years, but this phone is certainly not worth the .01 if it is not going to perform in the manner that it should. And lastly, the screen disappears for no reason and will not stay illuminated for longer than 10 seconds and I have to power it back on each time. And when I do that, it vacillates through so many screens before it finds one it wants to stay on. While the Behold had a 5.0 megapixel camera and this only has 2, the pictures were not bad, although they were all taken outside and not in. But because you cannot see the screen outside, it is very hard to take a picture when the sun is out because you cannot see the screen.

Pros: Nice phone if you’re on a budget and/or haven’t ever had a smartphone. Touch works well with the pads of my finger or my fingernail. Web browsing isn’t bad. Really like the ease of deleting msgs. Has some apps. Has FM radio. $10/mo unlimited data.
Cons: Not as easy to personalize as I would have thought. Little clunky calling someone in your contacts list.
Summary: I upgraded from a Samsung Comeback msging phone, so this seems like a huge step forward. Really like the phone. Has a few things that aren’t perfect, but what phone suits you perfectly. Only requires a $10/month unlimited data plan. Really glad that I made the switch from the Comeback.
