i got this phone in aug 04, i thought it was the sweetest looking thing ever. It looks like a million bucks. The phone came with 2 battery's, now i know why there is 2. The battery life on the phone is bad. There is a blue tooth option, but the blue tooth doesent work. Infared doesent work. 6 months later, the phone started to break down. Battery dying, camera not working, just plain bad. Beautiful phone, but the phone is really crap. do not buy this phone. LIfe span is at best 12 months. I will be surprised if anyone used it for over a year.

I got this phone on Sept 2005. At that time, this was the best camera phone out. This phone is small and perfect for me- I hate big bulky phones. Anyway, I had to pay over $300 bucks for this phone, which was originally priced at $500 and sold out at the time I got it. Inno is a Korean brand- they have ringtones of Korean pop. The best part about the phone is that it's small, light weight, looks modern, rare (no one has it) and that it takes really good pictures. It almost makes the pictures hazy so everyone comes out glamorized and light in skin tone- your eyes look huge, lips look pink- even without makeup. This camera will get anyone looking good. I hate taking pictures but I do with the phone because I haven't had a bad piture with this camera. Since I got the phone, I got water damage to it so I had to buy an ericsson s710a, which was the best camera phone when I got it in the beginning of 2006. Compared to the inno, the ericsson has a better camera, better camcorder! It also has a speaker, which is really great. But the worst part is that this phone is twice the size of the inno and twice the weight. I feel like an old buisiness man with this phone and haven't heard much compliments with it compared to the inno. So, I am now in the process of looking for a new inno 55. I don't need a built-in camcorder nor do I have extra purse space for this refrigerator sized phone.

i adore this phone, but after a year and a half it has gone through a few accidents and drops. it died on me last night. it won't turn on anymore and i've tried charging its battery. it makes me really sad to see it go, and i almost want to buy another one.

In my opinion, this phone is decent. I mean, i got it for free...other than that, this phone really sucks. The camera is terrible, and my battery life is extremely bad. I've only had it for a year and it's already banged up. Another problem is that the vibration isn't strong enough and the ring tones arent loud enough. I'm always getting missed calls. As a replacement, I plan on getting one of the Nokia N-series (G1), the Samsung Z-series, or the Sony Ericsson K800.

Do not get this phone. I bought, disliked,a nd returned. No help from innostream whatsoever and theres many things you can't change on the inno 55. No speaker ( they took out of software ) , when texting, you have to memorize the number instead of searchin through your phone book, and many things you can't do. (delete pictures?!)

i have this phone like over a year now and no problems at all.the only thing that sucks is no sound when u're trying to record a video and it has no infra but thats on every inno 55. the only way to put other ringtones is to use the inno55 datacable.it doesn't accept mp3 files, only mmf files(each max 200kb ) so in order to do that u have to convert de mp3 in a mmf file. thats what i did and it's pretty cool coz the standard ringontes they suck ass.u can also put your own background pictures u want.and ps it's not infrared to download stuff it's an irda thats different from infrared...if u guys have any more q...feel free to ask

I got this phone last christmas and i regret it. I had to get it repaired twice six months since the purchase and i had to borrow a LAME AS CRAP cellphone from the retail store. Go for the major brands, like Samsung or Nokia
