Fair phone for the money, bought as a replacement w/o contract since my phones have a hard life. Like the display & keyboard, but reception is not very good. Keeps dropping the network (ATT) in same location that my RAZR has 3-4 bars. Lost a lot of calls & had numerous calls drop in middle of conversation due to reception problems. Phone has been in use for about 2 mos & has had problem out of box as brand new phone.

It is an alright phone. No bluetooth capabilities and no memory card. I've had mine for almost a year and I've noticed that the keys are starting to stick. But it's great for just texting and talking.

Overall: 4/5 stars!!1

Great phone. I loved it, although there is no hole for charms, and sometimes is hard to text on, but overall great. It has internet and games, plus really great options to really customize it to fit you. Very easy to use and really nice weight, super light. I dropped mine a lot, but it never broke, but sometimes the back cover and battery would come out.

I have owned three different Samsung models and they all do the turn on turn off thing. It is so annoying. My latest one was the Samsung solstice and I really liked the phone until it started doing this. Before long it got so bad that it wouldn't turn on unless you had it plugged into the wall. So I called ATT and they said i could send it back as long as I hadn't gotten it wet. Well I had only owned the phone for 4 months and never got it near water. I then proceeded to look for the wet sticker, or the thing in the battery compartment that turns red if wet but my phone never had one and ATT won't take it back. I have no clue what to do!

This is not a bad phone for the money.

One of the major drawbacks is that the processor is not large big enough to read all websites. On some sites you will get a prompt that says, "Document To Large".

On YouTube you will get a prompt that says, "Format Not Supported".

That being said those sites are in the vast minority.

The camera's bad.. I won't lie. .3 megapixel's won't end your pic in a gallery, BUT, if you need a camera in an emergency it will do fine.

For surfing, texting, and talking this phone for the most part is fine. The speaker phone is fine also.

The small keyboard is no problem, the keys are tilted to contour to your fingers and work great.

Overall for the price (I paid $40 thru my carrier) this phone is good.

Worst phone I've EVER had. It's constantly turning off and turning itself back on i'd say 5-10 times a day. The keys are way too small. Service is horrible. It takes forever to load the interner and it's EXTREMELY limited. I've only been able to get on Myspace, Facebook, and TMZ mobile. Texting is impossible it randomly places periods and doubles sometimes quadruples the letters I want to type. (I.e. Hey whaaaats up?) Takes horrible pictures. No video. Email is limited. Only pro is that the battery life is pretty decent and the call quality isn't bad either depending on location. All in all I would NOT recomind this phone unless it's used strictly for calls.
