This is a special phone :]

Phone owned for

 I got this phone probably four years ago and it's still in action! I've dropped it on the concrete a few times and it's been splashed with water, but besides a slightly scratched screen this phone has proven very durable! The two keyboards are amazing, the QWERTY keyboard has buttons that are big enough to be comfortable and technically the phone is laid out really well. Calls generally sound good, it has nice features.Great phone for texting and calling. Technically a smart phone, so it has Microsoft programs on it but I never use them. Has internet access and 3G capabilities as well as music but I don't use it for that either. I've heard all sorts of things about the battery life, but it's absolutely incredible for me. I can go days without charging it, using it for texting and calls all the way. However... Sometimes it definitely frustrates me. I have to keep in mind that it's getting old, but it freezes sometimes--it's worst when I try to open a multimedia message. Almost always it will stick on the "loading" symbol and I have to take out the battery and put it back in to make the thing start again. The camera is terrible. It doesn't take pictures very well, but the biggest qualm I have with it is that it nearly always gives me an error message when I try to use the camera saying something like, "Insufficient RAM space. Please close one or more programs." I don't use many programs, so wtf is that supposed to mean? Like I said, it's a great texting phone but texts don't auto-delete from your inbox as they get old, and if you love to text like I do, they can really pile up quickly without you noticing! I probably have 1000+ texts in my inbox right now because they're a pain to go through and delete.The vibrate setting is very, very strong. I like that I can feel it through my purse, but I can also hear it, which is not a good thing when I'm in a class. Probably because it's old, the thing acts up when it vibrates sometimes--once I was in a class and the phone vibrated continually for almost 30 seconds when I got a text. Very embarrassing. Overall, this phone has definitely been a trooper, a lot better than the new Matrix or whatever. Worth it, for sure. :]
