Not what I expected on an unbloked phone, battery life to short

No, I would not recommend this product.

The phone is not what I expected, it's unblocked but some features does not work with my carrier, plus the battery has a very short life, it has to be recharged in less time than other of same quality.

worst phone i have ever had!!!!

bought this product from at&t when my husband and i switched over from another service carrier. we have only had these phones for 6 months had to do warrenty on both phones. they lock up, we cannot make calls, recieve calls, screen is going out on my phone, my husbands phone quit recognizing charger, phone unlock half of the time. Do yourself a favor and don't waste your time or money on this phone.

THIS PHONE IS THE EDSEL OF THE CELL PHONE WORLD...

No, I would not recommend this product.

Save your money! This phone needs a charger hooked to it 24 hours a day. The phone has a lot of good features, but the bad things outweigh the good. The phone froze up and would not function after ten days of use and it was returned to the vendor. It is the Edsel of the phone world.
