I recently bought the Samsung Slash. It's a really awesome looking phone and takes great pictures. It's easy to use. I can't really say anything bad about it except for the ringtones and the battery life of the phone. I just wish there were more ringtones to choose from and a better variety. The battery life is too short. Im used to having to charge my phone every 2 to 3 days, depending on how often I used it (I had a Nokia "Shorty"). I have a worse signal with this one than my old one which is odd since it's the same phone company. I can't call anyone by accident which is a plus! The volume is super loud, louder than what Im used to.
This phone is ok. It takes pictures, and you can have multiple numbers per entry in the phone book, and web browser is fair. But unless you can get it cheap like I did on ebay, it's not worth the money. You can't download anything unless it's approved by virgin mobile, and they are so greedy that they only let you download stuff that they make money on, and you have to pay. Im sure that other carriers that utilize this phone model may not have that restriction, but I have this one, so I am leaving the feedback for this phone that was made for virgin mobile. And this problem is part of the phone. Because if that restriction were not on the phone, I wouldn't be talking about it.
I was pretty amazed when i got this phone for just $20 with the extras it came with it. The camera works far better than i thought it would, it even has a flash (not a very good one, but non the less!) It doesn't weigh mush, even with the battery it is a light phone. The graphics are same as it is on all the other Virgin Mobile Phones, all pretty simple. I was a little disappointed with the ring tones they have. Be cause most of the time when i get txts, even if the phone is set to a loud volume, i can barely hear it. But that could be easily fized by downloading some new tones from VirginXL (which is failry priced) But over all, this is the best phone you will get for $20, hands down!
One of the only Virgin Mobile Phones that can still be used for both Paylo and Beyond Talk Plans maximizing your plan flexibility. Just a cool, vintage Virgin Mobile phone that gets me all misty eyed thinking about the good 'ole days when phones were merely for talk and text. You can install Opera Mini and Google Maps thus increasing the usability of the phone like if you need directions or need to access your email or to look up something on the internet. I love the fact that it can get on the internet and is so tiny and cute w/ the slider feature that it hides easily in one's pocket. I love it. The only issues are the calculator only goes to the hundredths decimal place (Mantra goes to the ten thousandths), there is no zoom on the camera (Mantra has a post picture zoom feature) and sometimes the texting can be a little cumbersome when using the space key b/c you have to press it twice to get it to space once (Mantra space key only needs to be pressed once per space), but the phone looks so cool, and the slider feature is so slick and awesome that that in itself makes up for the aforementioned lagging features. I just kinda wish it had the exact features that the Manta has. The Mantra I feel is a better made phone because it's made in Korea whereas the Slash is made in China (both by Samsung), but I love them both. The Mantra I feel also has a brighter screen and it is a little larger. I actually have both phones and just swap them whenever I feel like changing it up a little bit. Sometimes I want to use the flip, other times the slider. I love the Slash though. Still a very relevant and cool phone for Virgin Mobile. I wish they still sold them. This and the Mantra are the coolest phones on the market even today, but I'm a minimalist with whom these phones fall in line wih my paradigm that phones are primarily for talk/text with some light internet access and other features like camera and bluetooth. It has everything I need. I just wish I was able to download more ringtones and wallpaper since I refuse to purchase them. Both Slash and Mantra have only a very few stock ringtones, wallpapers etc so I just take pictures and set them as my wallpaper, but as far as the ringtones go, they are cool, but so few of them so you're pretty much stuck w/ stock as I haven't figured out a way to download free ringtones as it blocks those sites that I've tried. It seems like you'd have to pay for the ringtones and wallpapers directly from Virgin Mobile, and that I don't like. But, like I said, I won't pay for them anyway, and I can live w/ the stock stuff so it's all good. Great, cool-looking, easy to carry, hide and use phone. Great job Samsung. They just don't make 'em like this anymore like many great things, but cell phones are just way too involved these days. This phone has everything I could ever want in a CELL PHONE.Read full review
