I have this phone now.I recently purchased it off on ebay.I bought it for the looks and the sleek design.It was working well for a while,then it kept on dropping my calls and it would freeze up on me.I realized that it was the software causing all this trouble.Now I have a purchase a new phone.I am not satisfied with this phone.I wouldn't recommend this phone to anyone.
The phone is quite a nice basic phone but has two main problems, when it gets humid the screen flips to different screens and could be quit irritating and the 2nd problem is the battery, it wears off within 4-5 months and make sure that your fingers a very dry before you use the touch pad otherwise you could end up tossing it out of the window.
Takes forever to figure out how to setup the ring tones. Stupid phone.
It works in GSM 900. Amazon specify that this phone is cabable of operataing in GSM 850 and this is a mistake.
If I knew aboutthis problem before purchasing the phone with a 2 year contract, Iwould definitely have gotten a different model instead. I have had this phone in NYC area for about 3 months now. Ifanyone has any suggestions for me to get a better signal, I wouldappreciate it, as I have paid a lot for this phone that loses a lotof calls daily. Also, I justwent on a trip up to northern Vermont, and my wife's phone neverdropped a call or lost service (Cingular), and I had no service for the wholetrip (Cingular), which was very frustrating trying to do business from the road.I was thinking of getting the battery signal increaser metal strip,but after reading more about the phone, I do not think they will help any. My wife hasCingular (RAZR) and I was going to get that phone as well, but thensaw this one available at the Cingular store and figured I would get it for the looks, andCingular said they support the phone so I thought all would be good.After using it for 3 months, I lose service in A LOT of areas aroundhere, and my wife's phone works fine. I guess it is b/c of all this1900, 850, 900 band issues.
