Review: I’ve gone through 4 or 5 of these phones, so I know them like the palm of my hand. The first thing I would like to point out is that these are VERY rugged phones. One example was one rainy night when I was in a particularly bad mood. My poor cell phone got the brunt of my fury. I threw that poor thing a good 10 feet away onto concrete at least 4 times, and tried to drown it in some several-inch-deep puddles. That thing never gave up, even after all that shock and water damage. Another time a group of friends convinced me to throw it as high as I could in the air and catch it. I did, it went a good 60-70 feet up there, and came down in my hands, which yes, is softer than the ground, but is still quite a shock. Point of the story is that its a strong phone. Another feature I like is that it can transmit infrared messages, which is useful for me because my computer has an infrared port. Free ringtones! Now for the bad. The phone has a lot of good feature, but the menu is a little inconsistent. For example, the order and number of options you have for a specific picture will change depending on if you’re viewing a thumbnail or the full size picture. Some of these changes make sense, but others don’t. Also, the menu looks sort of cheap, not as nice as other phones. There are many options for customization with this phone. The camera is less that one megapixel but the quality is good enough to view them blown up on the computer. The video feature is essentially useless. Even if you can tell whats going on in the video, you’re barely able to see it and even less able to hear it. I like this phone a lot. It works well and is very strong. Like everything, it has its downfalls but overall its nice.
