Pros: Beautiful graphics imo, very user friendly, shortcuts on front screen is very helpful, threaded messaging, great call reception
Cons: The buttons, while giving very tactile feedback, needs time to get use to and also bc of the pyramid shape it sort of feels weird on your thumbs. The threaded messaging is a bit limited, not really like the iPhone's at all. Can be kind of slow, probably bc of the menu transition animations. The keyboard is also just slightly cramped, probably not recommended for those with fat thumbs.
Summary: This is a great messaging phone, perfect for any texter who wants many of the smart phone features without a smart phone plan. The dedicated Google SMS menu is very helpful for those who want Google answers but don't have/want an internet plan. The keyboard, while not having the best key shapes, has great key and symbol locations. Still have yet to fully test the battery life, but under heavy text usage I didn't even use up a battery bar even without full out of the box charging. Great camera, very sharp pictures for a 2MP I must say. The speaker could be louder for playing music, but has a good quality sound overall. The screen, graphics, pictures, and animations on this phone are all gorgeous. The screen is the perfect size for this kind of slider.
I would rate it an 9/10 (On standards of a "Dumbphone")
3.6
