This simple little cell phone is really basic and easy to use. since its from virgin mobile i would recommend it for someone who rarely uses a cell phone and texts every now and then. pros: bluetooth, 2mp camera, 2 creens, full qwerty key board, flashlight, great service (traveled to california from texas and it worked the whole way). cons: very small screens, bulky; a little too big for regular pockets, very limited features. overall this phone works great and will definitely get the job done, although it might seem huge and ancient in todays market.
for a dumb phone its a good phone, for a texter its great! The deal I got from this seller couldnt be beat. It is an older school type phone so its thicker, but I actually like that. It feels like you have something in your hand and it doesnt slip from your grip as easily. The screen flips orientation when you use it from a standard phone vs the qwerty keyboard for texting too. It has voice recognition, blue tooth capability, a camera, a scheduler etc., the usual bells and whistles. You could use it for some online stuff too, except that it has a very small screen and it cant use a lot of the apps youd really want. But, for the $, its a great deal for a basic-use phone. (Because its so much older now, be sure to get a deep discounted price: DONT EVER PAY RETAIL FOR IT!
Let me start off by saying I have owned 4 different cellphones with full keyboards. LG Voyager, Motorola Q, Verizon (UT Starcom) XV6700, and AT&T Fuze (HTC Touch Pro). For a Pre-Paid cell this is a great choice, and it will surely do a good job for texting. But if you plan to browse the web, check e-mail, use MySpace or Facebook, or listen to music, then this will not work for you. The Mobile Web browser on this phone is the same as all there lower end phones and cannot properly display most websites. There is no MP3/Music/Video player, and the only way to listen to any music is to have someone text it to you. Virgin has disabled any Internet Downloading unless you buy the media through the Virgin XL service. You can use it for E-mail, but only if you have a Yahoo! or AOL Email address, but don't expect to download any attachments besides sounds or pictures. The dual screens are a nice touch, but they are small and the phone would benefit more from a larger single screen with a sideways sliding keyboard. The Bluetooth on this phone is rather weak, and very limited to only a Ear Piece so you won't be able to link up to your friends phones or a computer. The keyboard layout is rather odd, placing the navigation pad in the middle, making your thumbs reach awkwardly to the sides for certain letters or symbols. The menu lacks any newer features that older or lower end Virgin phones, and you can't change the theme or colors either. My final thoughts on this phone are.....If you have a young teenager who likes to text and you dont want to risk getting a contract and wind up with a huge bill then this would be a good choice, but if you are looking to get a high end phone with a keyboard and alot of cool features like most of the new phones you see from the big 3 (Verizon, AT&T and Sprint) then you will be highly dissapointed and end up buying something else in a month.I hope this helps you decide.Read full review
I purchased this phone for my tween daughter and she absolutely loves it. It's a little boxy in shape but I think that is because the phone flips open instead of sliding like some of the newer phone models. I think it is a perfect phone if you are an occasional/new texter because it has the full keyboard. I also LOVE Virgin mobile pay-as-you-go for her cell needs as I can manage her bill and don't have to worry about the dozens of fees added onto other monthly phone plans. This phone has games and also takes pics so it is fully functional for somone who doesn't want to spend a fortune on a new phone for their child (or themselves!) but wants a nice product. I will say that the picture quality is not the best, but overall it's decent. Lastly, using the phone is very intuitive as my daughter never even picked up the manual and was texting and downloading games and creating her phone book within the first hour of opening the phone.Read full review
The phone let's you text, access the web (W/Opera browser, free download from Virgin Mobile) has a basic camera, voice activation, good sound, bluetooth, speakerphone and the standard accessory functions. Other reviewers say that it's not too solid, but get a good case for it and it will last quite a while. I've found that the function that suggests words and phrases will cause it to resist my entries, so you either have to be patient when the system insists on what it thinks you want or turn the feature off. I really like the phone! It let's me access Yahoo and eBay quickly and easily and even other websites, if I want.
