Pros: The chirping. Would be a great deal if it worked properly.
Cons: Roaming charges, Internet on it is lame and hard to use. Boost loop is pointless. Takes hours or days to receive texts. Ugly phone
Summary: 24/F/CA
Bought the Motorola i776 at Radio Shack for $99.99 on March 27th 2009. Also prepaid my first month. I got the unlimited everything plan. For $50.00 a month.
The phone it's self is kinda ugly. It has no alarm clock, or calculator like most phones do. It is small and hard to use. This phone is WAY overpriced!
Texting- was perfectly fine at first, but now it's taking hours, even days to receive texts. It's not a very easy phone to text with either, everything's so small I end up pushing the wrong buttons like every text.
It does store a lot of messages though.
Calls seem to be ok, I hate that you have to put in an area code everytime you need to call someone. No dropped calls or anything like that though.
The only thing I really like is the chirping. Since I can't text, I can at least chirp my husband when I need to.
There is the Boost Loop that's supposed to tell you where your other boost looped friends are, except is is almost always wrong. It will say my husband's on the other side of town, when in fact he's sitting right next to me. So that feature is pointless.
It also the the internet. I tried using it and well...it was hard to use, and I'll probably never try to use it again.
I also was NEVER told about the roaming charges.
So to sum it up: This phone/boost mobile sucks.
I hope they do something quick about this texting issue, or I'll throw this phone in the street lol.
