"Does what it says on the box"
What I like:
The best things about the product is the price and simplicity. It can be used with ease by the technologically challenged.
What I don't like:
The phone gets confused on the keys you press especially the arrow buttons that doubles as the O,K,L and M buttons
Review:
Initially I would have had ranked this phone a perfect score. It does what its supposed to do, its affordable and its solidly built. However, a few months into the use of this phone, I noticed some problems. One of the biggest problems was that the phone would just shut off in the middle of texting despite being fully charged. It has happened a few times, not a lot, just about seven times in the past three months. Perhaps one can over look the problem but it can be quite irritating. Another problem is the keypad. The QWERTY keypad gets confused sometimes especially when typing messages quite fast (like I do). The OKLM keys doubles as the up, left, right and down keys respectively. When typing out a message, i would realize that not only will the letter function of the key be carried out but also the arrow key function, thus i usually have to edit my messages before i send them. It is frustrating at best. Another problem is the battery meter which doesnt seem to display the battery power properly. Despite these shortcomings, the phone is quite good and if you are on a budget and would like to have a QWERTY phone, this would be a phone you can pick up. But, if you have money to spare, avoid this phone at all cost.
