This phone freezes during downloading and eventually stops downloading altogether (which means the 16gb of memory is essentially useless). But my biggest complaint is the battery life. The phone will need a full charge before my 8-hour shift is over (not even half a day)! I notified the seller of the problem. He admited having to turn off apps and features in order to preserve battery life and then suggested cycling the battery or just replacing it. Not only do I feel the need to purchase further accesories defeats the puropose of me buying this older model phone in the first place, but this product doesn't meet the condition as advertised.

I LOVE this phone! BUT there is a price for all of its features & power. It SUCKS battery, however the Gingerbread update helps SOME. The large screen is nice especially with the hd video capability. But I cant stand to talk on it without a bluetooth because it is so heavy & bulky (especially with the high cap. battery.) . The docking apps are a bit limited, but I still like the optional Auto Bracket when driving for Maps & safer easy access while on the road.
Very poor battery life, especially when using any apps other than voice or text. Even when using voice and/or text at a moderate rate throughout the day, half the charge is depleted within 6hours. (Note: My previous phone would go for 48hrs on one charge utilizing voice and/or text.) It does take a little time to get use to the touch screen, but does get easier after time. Touchscreen keyboard is a bit too sensititive (I find myself backspacing quite a bit to correct errors). Phone is quite bulky and heavy especially if you put a highend protecive cover on it (Mine has a "Trident" cover). Surfing the web on 3G is slow and uses up a lot of battery life. It is a 4G phone, but unfortunately there is no 4G in our area. Screen is great, sharp resolution and bigger screen than the Iphone (we have two Iphones in our household). Lots of features. A multitude of available apps. I especially like the Accuweather app that was preloaded on mine, it's given me the most accurate wx forecast of any of the wx services. Better value than the Iphone; due to it being about half the price and doing pretty much the same thing. In summary, if it wasn't for the poor battery performance, and slow surfing speeds (I can deal with the bulkiness 'cause tablets are even bigger and heavier,-wife has a "Kindle"-) If this phone was lighter, faster and had better battery life, Apple would have some great competition. As it is, I have to give it an rating overall of average to good .Read full review
This phone was a great buy for the price. It has worked well but like all items it does have its pros and cons. Pros Solid Phone, Display good, process at a good speed. Hot spot works good, and the camera takes a good picture, Cons Can be sluggish especially when calling more than one person right after each other. Little bulky for those who desire a compact phone, price a little high if bought new....
