  • what happened 2 ur alias2

  • This phone is terrible! Mine had horrible glitches then the screen stopped working. You can't even get your pics and videos onto the computer because someting wrong with zune's software.

  • Well, I've had a great time with this phone, until 6 months after I got it! TO THE DAY! The Screen will go crazy, make weird noises, and turn off without command. DON'T GET THIS PHONE!!!!!!!!!

  • can you get your contact pictures from Facebook on the kin twoM

  • I thought this wasnt a smartphone?

  • y does everyone gve this phone shit..this is y far the bet feature phone to this day. Its BS because its a feature phone I a person that wants to have. smart phone..its not...Get this in your head. Jeeze

  • Hey bro I got this phone a few days ago and I CAN'T sync it with my computer to put on music and stuff. PLEASE help me out :D

  • I got this phone in April and I loved it for about 2 months and now hate it. The sound randomly stops working or goes from silent to loud. Also occasionally when I put vibrate on it turns to one continuous vibrate and wont turn off till i take the battery out. It freezes quite a bit too. My brothers also had the phone until both their screens just stopped working for no reason. Buuut what I do like about the phone is the ability to have music, and use Wifi. Youtube quality is terrible though.

  • I just bought this phone. Do I return it? I wish this phone didn't have so many reported problems!!!

  • @VIK96T NO its a great phone. i love it.

  • i had this phone for a few months and it was amazing. it did everything i could possibly want from a feature phone. then it stopped turning on. now i don't have a phone

  • This phone sucks ass >:| I'm glad I don't have it anymore

  • i lost mine and it was the best phone i had :(

  • I have the KinONEm and its like this except it cant play youtube and its alot smaller and it has a different settings

  • Nice review buddy. Does it play Youtube??

  • @techreveiws101 Yeah  IT DOES

  • Comment removed

  • As I was watching this, my Kin TWOm came in the mail:)

  • they don't sell this phone anymore do they

  • @holyfeep They do

  • "You can swipe and get to your favorite contacts and they'll have there pictures, and stuff... I have some weird friends". LOL

  • i thought it was great for the first month then literally, there were screws falling out of the back i am already on my second, because my first broke after a 2 ft drop, freezes after a calll and the volume changes inside my pocket, i am going for the samsung stratosphere or the droid pro asap

  • omg i went from a alias 2 to a Kine onem

  • main this is bullshit...the battery life sucks!!

  • I have had this phone for a while. Here is my review. IT SUCKS GIGANTIC BALLS!!!!!!!!!!!

    It sucks in almost every way you could possibly imagine. Even the ringtones are awful and they have faggy sounding names. Sometimes, when the phone gets low on power, I'll plug it in, and the phone will just go dead. It won't turn back on. It won't charge. It won't do shit. The a day later it will work again.

    DON'T GET THIS PHONE! IT SUCKS!

  • @TheBrindleBoxer I second that. The screen is plastic so I have a billion scratches and I'm careful with my phones. THE BUTTONS ARE RUBBING OFF. Buttons like shift, backspace, q, p, etc have the finish rubbing off. TOTAL SHIT. Don't buy.

  • Nice review, but... I use my phone to traditionally call people.... ALOT. and I don't have a phone right now cause it broke down on me, again. It overheated like a crazy bitch. IT HAS NO OPTION TO SAVE CONTACTS ON A SIM CARD or something! which absolutely positively SUCKS!!! <--all caps rage. Cause its a pain in my ass to have to manually insert 50 contacts every time this piece of brick fails me.

    It was cool at first, loved it! Now i absolutely cant stand the thing.

  • Comment removed

  • i have this phone, andd my revbiew of itt, issssssssss... itss prettyy gooddd. hahah it nottt bad, i like thee wifii, but the vibration is like freakin gayy!! haha i like the camraa thoo.

  • @sbieberbeadles can u put signaturez on it?

  • I have this phone... It sucks balls the only good thing about it is it doesn't break if you drop it

  • i have this phone. here is my review: this phone fucking sucks. don't buy it. waste of money. screen got ruined for no reason, its slow to load the apps like messaging. it takes forever to go from the homescreen to send a message. its " HD video " sucks balls.

  • I had one and loved it but unfortunately it just broke. It seems a common problem with it that I've found from my experience and others is that after a certain amount of use the screen will eventually become too loose on the sliders and will disconnect from the phone. I had it for about a year when this happened to me and it was a great phone the entire time but just bear in mind that there is a chance that it will break prematurely like this.

  • How do u import ring tones from your computer the the phone??

  • @MisoKage24 try a website called 'phonezoo', you can just send them to ur phone for free

  • Microsoft just made this piece of crap...

    It is bulky and the app icons look like utter crap. I like the way you make the review, but i really don't like your phone. Anyway sorry for being rue but i don't like it.

  • were can i buy this? cuz it is not on verizon website. the first one is but i cant find the 2nd one. anyone help me?

  • @wildbraincollin1 you have to order it off of another site like ebay or amazon because microsoft stopped selling them thru verizon because of how many have got sent back becoz ppl were unhappy with them

  • I have the enV Touch. And you have to "Press" it, because it's resistive. He's right. Resistive is a pain.

  • Great video! I know this is pretty late (and they discontinued the phone and all), but i want to get the phone from an independent seller and i wonder if you would be so kind as to answer a question - is it possible to text a photo to your own email address? Or email a photo to yourself? I'm asking because i have a mac, so i can't use Zune to get photos to my personal computer. I would really appreciate your response.

  • Horrible phone. The backlight stopped working and Verizon can't replace it because the manufacturer doesn't makes them anymore. I've had it for a month. The "warranty replace" is an LG Accolade which is a piece of shit.

  • I have the Kin and it wont let me send a text to my facebook email to upload pictures.. is there any way around this? Plus on mine i cant upload pictures over the internet...

  • @TheOhhhhkay can u put signaturez on it

  • they discontinued the Kin TWOm, but i really have my heart set on getting it, do you know anywhere where i can buy it, either new OR used, but somewhere safe, unlike ebay that you really dont have a garrantee that it won't arrive broken?

  • @WGI2009 more r on the way :D

  • @WGI2009 if you call verizon you can actually buy one through there store

  • I went through 5 of these phones. They are terrible. The last one I had the screen stopped working. Verizon has stopped selling them, thank god. I have a pantech jest coming in the mail and cant wait to have a functional phone!

  • this phone, is the worst phone ever. I hate that i have to go back to it.. >.< cause my other one broke.

    I want a smart phone again. :|

  • continued:

    6 the phone is really thick.

    7 no on touchscreen keyboard *(actually gets really annoying)

    8 most of the time the home button doesnt work soo you have to press it a thousand time or slide the keyboard out to check messages or something like that. i hope this was useful to some people/ i would highly suggest getting a different phone because now not even 5 months into it i am thinking about upgrading. however the phone is very durable and can withstand water and sand+being dropped.

  • @jenjen1gal I got one of these last september and I just sent mine back to be replaced for the second time. I 100% agree with you! Listen to this person!!!!!! This phone falls apart besides It has no apps besides the ones it comes with. The browser sucks, the wifi doesn't even work anyway, the touchscreen has some deadspots, and it freezes all the time. These same problems developed on both of my phones. I sent the first one back hoping I just got a bad one but the second one did the same...

  • I have had this phone for a few months and i absolutely hate it. besides that the phone actually looks really cool there is so many things you cant do with it.

    1 you cant forward any messages.

    2 it randomly drops calls all the time.

    3) for the first few days the battery power last for 4 days but then you practically need to charge is everyday

    4)scratches really easily

    5) the camera button on the side doesnt work .. you have to touch the button on the touchscreen not easy to find when takin pics

  • YOU SOUND LIKE JIM FROM THE OFFICE

  • @skateremo22 He does huh!?

  • @skateremo22 no he doesn't :o. i guess a little

  • Hi :) I have a few questions...

    - can you put any pictures as your background on the phone? and are there other ways you can customize it besides just the 4 colors?

    - can you put your own music (like from zune or whatev) as a ringtone?

    - can you record sounds at all?

    - soo you can use youtube without the data plan? and you can use email without a data plan??

    - is there a tip calculator? what about a world clock?

    - is it heavy or pretty light?

    - does it have a recent calls file or a notepad? thx!

  • @Beatles353 DO NOT GET THIS PHONE!!! It is AWFUL!!! it's slow and painful to use, answering/dialing a call is a pain in the ass, and you're stuck with a black background....the only thing that keeps me from switching back to my old phone is the full keyboard. My advice is to stay away from this phone, and if you want a phone with a full keyboard, get the LG Cosmos Touch or the Lg cosmos 1 or 2. Otherwise, any phone in verizon's inventory is better than this, even the non-smartphones.

  • @SpyceySalad I storngly disagree becaus i have this its great for me i like the wifi and music player is awesome the keyboard is awesome the battery life is excellent and the headphones it comes with are exceptional

  • @SpyceySalad the cosmos software is even slower than this phone(i have owed both) kin is a decent phone but the cosmos is absolute garbage.

  • @Beatles353 1. The only way you can customize this phone is the four colors.

    2.You may use YT but the quality is substandard.

    3.There is no notepad

    Have A Great Day!:D

  • can i use the internet using wifi but dont have a data plan

  • wait.....did they get rid of THE SPOT and Internet????

  • Hahaha that's what I thought about the ringtones too. xD

  • it doesnt require a data package . it has wifi so you can just have wifi.

  • can u browse the internet if u have wifi on and don't have an internet/data plan?

  • @supervette2000 Yes, you can! One of the great things about it! And standby on my channel my videos will start tomorrow on the Kin TwoM and the Kin OneM. Hope you buy this phone to all. Great phone overall. Don't forget; check my channel starting tomorrow in the eveningg. (:(:

  • can you get ringtones on this?

  • @MusicIsMyLifee0913 If you have a phonozoo.com; or a tonzr.com. Yes; you can. And check my channel tomorrow evening for unboxings, reveiws, tips, and if you have any questions about the Kin OneM or Kin TwoM. Tomorrow evening!

  • Do you have to switch to "airplane mode" for charges not to apply?

  • Can you not put a pic as your wallpaper or does it have to be like that?

  • I'm waiting for this phone to come in the mail, I'm really excited I love this phone 2 of my friends have it. My crappy phone been broken forever so I'm happy! :) I got it for 80$ on E-Bay. I think it looks really cool, and I love touchscreen phones. And you can get on Wi-Fi, and it had HD Video, it also has many other cool feautries. Overall, it's a smexy phone! :)

  • @DoseOfEpic I mean I got the Kin 2M for 80$.

  • @DoseOfEpic i just ordered mine off verizon for 20

  • i got this to replace my samsung trance

  • Is this phone still sold? I got mine from Verizon the week it came out in Nov. 2010. lol

  • @ertrox342 on a scale from 1-10 what would you rate it?

    also I love the little noise it makes when you unlock it! xD

  • what's better, this or the env touch?

  • this guy is super indecisive hha

  • if you have a yellow dot behind your battery of the Kin Twom then you have the option of going back to the original Kin Two software

  • I'd probably get really impatient with this laggy phone, haha..

  • <3 my dream phone :)

  • hey man this video gelped alot im getting my kin TWOm on thursday and now im looking fwd to it more

  • Thumbs up if Verizon Rocks!

  • THANKS! I'm getting that phone in a month. Verizon don't give that much info...

  • I've got a mac... I feel like that could be an issue.

  • can you get this in the store....or is it only online,....cause the kin onem is only available online and i wanted this but i wanna get it in the store....please reply

  • You do not have to ge the data pack correct? And if so, can u still get the wifi feature?

  • I'm getting this phone for an upgrade from my enV3, I'm not allowed to get a smartphone which sucks. So this was my only choice. Doesn't seem that bad. I can access mobile and text people a lot so I'm fine.

  • I am switching from the alias 2 to this too, were you happy with the change?

  • omgg im waiting for this to get delivered todayy

  • First review I have seen that showed how dialing works. Thank you.

  • Probably the smartest dumb phone Verizon offers. I just put my order yesterday to replace my EnV2. Keeping that JUST IN CASE.

  • can u put an SD card in it..?

  • @ReganNicole1324 No. You are stick with the 8 gigs, or the 6.75 gigs available to you.

  • @ReganNicole1324 No it sucks but no you can't I wish you could

  • How do you add a pic of yourself when ur texting?

  • Thanks for the Help! but anyywayy its probbablyy wiggly cause u dropped it when u weerr unboxxingg

  • This phone is REALLY slow. Has a late response when you touch, from my experience with the phone.

  • i'm getting this phone tomorrow.. (:

  • how responsive is the touchscreen? do you need to push hard?

  • @qwerty12161 no cause it's capacitive touch screen which is used on phones like the iPhone so it's good just normal.

  • does it take screen shots like the iphone? if so how? I just got mine.

  • @TheOhhhhkay press the power [lock] and home button at the same time

  • Is there also a touch screen keyboard if you turn it landscape?

  • @purplemonkeys97 yes you can

  • just ordered this... get it wednesday!!

  • Whoa thank you so much for this review I crossed this one off my list up until I saw this. One question, does this phone have an instant messaging feature?

  • do u need a data plan with this?

  • @Vitalylovesyou nope

  • got mine today :DDD

    

  • nice video i watched both and those two reviews told me alot of things about the phone but could you send me the photo of the wallpaper you had on the kin two it look awesome to me and it would look good on my phone and iTouch

  • this phone is a piece of shit, i just got it

  • there is nothing wrong with this phone

  • stupid phone

  • i got this phone for christmas it's badass :)

  • I'm getting this phone today I'm so excited

  • This looks like its an awesome PHONE Thumbs up if you think this phone looks awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Im getting it fo sure looks awesome!!!!!

  • So if i get this phone I can use internet for free without data package??

  • @shariece09 yes be careful though that you turn off your data on the phone itself it has a nasty habit of running 3g even if your on wifi i've read cases where this dude got a 7000 dollar bill because he thought he was on wifi but was on 3g just google it you'll be able to find the story. other than that it is a legit phone i love it

  • @epsilonspacecake, thank you for this warning. I have it and I think they threw me on the wrong data plan, or something is set wrong. It says it's on 3G when I press the info button. Also I was thinking about trying wifi just for fun, but not until I understand it way better. I'm glad I saw this first.

  • @codednine right on! yeah its a cool phone i like it. if i'm not mistaken 3g is just verizons network so it will say that no matter what i could be wrong though the wifi is really handy i like that aspect alot just make sure to call verizon and tell them to turn off the data on your phone then you'll be fine. enjoy :)

  • what happend to the loop

  • where do u get the money to bye the phones

  • does this take videos?!?!?!?!? i think im getting it...

  • Ok thanks:)

  • Oops. I really want this phone. Should I get it? I need advice from someone who has had it. PLEASE HELP ME!!! And follow or @ me on twitter @XcadesquirtX!

  • @cctswim17 Its a good phone, doesnt require data package. You can use WIFI and get free internet that way. Granted that you have wifi in your house or near by.

  • I really want this phone!!!! Ca

  • I love this phone. Also, there IS a dedicated call log. I'm not sure if everyone knows about it. Open the phone app and swipe to the right.

  • so its tuesday

  • @99boykiller it is not it was meant to be tho

  • win for the chevelle on your zune.

  • Good thorough review. Huge points for not making me watch you unbox it, and even more for actually using it for a week before you made the vid. Again, thanks.

  • is it a smartphone???

  • do u have to get intenet for this phone

  • @BKENDRICK1000 you don't have to get a data plan if that's what you mean. it has access to wifi

  • i got this phone a few months ago and since i have been trying to figure out how to make a picture the lock screen. i noticed that yours takes up the whole screen and is a picture you took. how did you that? when ever i try to set a picture as my lock screen the picture is super small and surrounded by black and doesn't take up the whole screen like i want it to.

  • Im hoping on getting this phone to replace my intensity

  • dude how do u take the screen shot

  • dude this is sick

  • how can u watch youtubee??? :S cus i cant!!

  • Who's LAUREN:) ;p

  • He's like, I have some weird friends, LOL

  • This phone is shit.

  • @xXCh1ncS1ayerXx Go away dumb ass it's an amazing non smart phone.

  • @xXaggiesXx23 Are you kidding? I've already gone through 3 of these phones! The software sucks, dumbass!

  • How do u sync music from itunes to your kin?

  • I watched both vids... could you tell me if there's a recent calls list? Like with my phone now, if I press the green talk button it shows a list of my most recent calls and it's very convenient. I really like this phone but I didn't see a talk/end call button on the phone... 

  • @Bo0Do0 u have 2 go 2 fone and u c the dialpad and u slide ur thumb to the left and u should c recent calls

  • lmao everyone with alias 2 going for this cuz i am too haha weird

  • wow thats so weird.. i have an alias 2 and was thinking of getting this phone lolll
