Pros: Small, light, and portable.
Cons: Made CHEAPLY, Battery charge is not long, phone intermittently shuts off and on, bad pic resolution, heats up during charging.
Summary: I recently received this phone 6 months ago from US Cellular and had problems with it from DAY ONE! For starters it intermittently shut off while in the middle of an important phone call, did not store a charge for longer than 1 hour, and was built NOT to last! I did drop the phone a few times but no more or less than other phones (like the VX4400 which lasted me TWO YEARS). My phone does not work anymore and the estimated repair from US Cellular was a WHOPPING $175-WHAT A RIPOFF! I decided it is better to buy a cheaper replacement phone to hold me over for one more year than to give US Cellular and extended contract. I almost believe there is a conspiracy to manufacture the phones cheaply to make customers spend LOTS OF MONEY on artificially inflated prices on phones during the term of your contract. This way, the phone company benefits in terms of service and hardware (even though they gave you the first one free which should have been built into the cost of service to begin with). The sad thing is you have to buy THEIR PHONE or it will not work with THEIR NETWORK-WHAT A SCAM!
