  • phone looks like it sucks.

  • @mypinkash This phone doesn't exist anymore. It was discontinued in May 2010 when Helio was bought by Virgin Mobile which was bought by Sprint. But back in early 2009 this phone was tha shit. I was watching YouTube on this phone in 2009 when nobody knew what Android phones were.

  • @mypinkash This phone was awesome in 2009. It doesn't exist anymore. It was discontinued in early 2010. I was watching YouTube on this phone in 2009 when everybody else was still using cheap ass flip phones.

  • @mypinkash At the time it was awesome!

  • Sounds a lot like Windows 7 when you slide it open

  • this phone brings smile :)

    droid 2 user

  • they should call it virgin 69

  • lol Helio! Way to get discontinued... I was on Virgins 25$ plan for a while until I switched to Net10's unlimited plan which is SOO MUCH BETTER! If you guys are still using Virgin do yourselves a favor and switch to Net10 the service and coverage is exponentially much more reliable. Net10 runs on ATT and Verizon towers and has GSM and CDMA coverage.

  • @ArcherSterling88 haha funny you mention this. I just switched from Virgin to Net10 and have been loving it ever since. I got the LG900 which is pretty cool (i like it better than my previous blackberry) but I wish the phone selection was a little better. I never knew Net10 runs on both ATT and Verizon towers thats pretty awesome, guess I know why my calls never drop.

  • the best part of this vide when he introduced himself the rest of the video was crappy meanin HELIO SUCKS!

  • seems like a pretty crappy phone. is it considered a smartphone?

  • Yeah, I know, that comment was made 9 months ago before Helio was discontinued by Virgin Mobile. Before May 25th, Helio was an awesome deal for the price. I used that phone all through 2009.

    On May 25th of this year, I switched to the $25 Virgin plan you mentioned (300 mins). I'm still on that plan but now with the Virgin Kyocera Loft.

  • Use this kickback code when activating a new phone and get 60 free airtime minutes. yJMnNuYd. It really works no bs.

  • Even though this Helio phone is no longer used on Virgin Mobile, it still has many great multimedia functions: 1) video camera 2) MP3 player 3) video player 4) still camera 5) photos viewer 6) alarm clock 7) voice memo recorder 8) notepad.

    I still take it out as an MP3 player, record videos and photos, type notes, view photos, and view YouTube clips that I pre-saved as MP4 files. It's still useful for some things!

  • how much is this phone

  • @prettysteady1 This phone doesn't exist anymore. As of May 25, 2010 it was killed by Sprint, who bought Virgin who previously bought Helio.

  • use this kickback code to get free minutes!! UJV9PeID trust me it works i did it

  • virgin mobile is for people that never had sex. lol get it?

  • Noah, I resent your statement that MVNO's are where people with bad credit go to get cell phones.....!

    You fail to mention that MVNO's lease minutes from the big 4 wireless providers, and for all practical purposes give identical service to the big 4, since they use their networks.

    The big difference is no contract, no termination fees, no credit checks, no hassles, and your get fast customer service and VERY LOW PRICES!

    Pageplus = 1200min/txt & 50MB data for $29.95 flat, not taxes, fees..

  • Wow this phone is a piece if shit, haha

  • wow, a piece o' junk.

  • If you sign up for a new virgin mobile phone, use the code "cLcQ5e5n" into the box called "kickbacks", and you'll get 60 free minutes!! its a great deal!!!

  • did you know that virgin mobile sold helio a long time ago so this video has no worth now-a-days

  • @Sulaymanqazi Do you know what happened to the phone?

  • @valerakukatov As one of the surviving 80,000 Helio Ocean users (until May 25th when Helio service ends), I am so pissed off at the way Sprint has treated us.

    The Helio phone ends on May 25, 2010. Sprint sent us a lousy $50 coupon towards the purchase of a new Sprint phone.

    I said hell no. I'm going over to the $25 Virgin Mobile plan. Sadly, they will not allow Helio Ocean to work on Virgin Mobile.

    The phone is still good as a still camera, video recorder, MP3, video player and notepad.

  • @JesusManson323 wow that's lame... I hope they don't do this crap with Rumor Touch.

  • maybe you should know a little about the phone before you do a review on it. You need to have the phone slid open before it works correctly... this is a good phone,

  • @JesusManson323 where can you get the fne now; i dont see it on the site virgin mobile anymore?

  • brand new kickback code

    free 60 minutes

  • @valerakukatov I agree. I'm going over to the new $25 Virgin Mobile plan...unlimited text, unlimited web, 300 mins.

  • @JesusManson323 yea, I should get my Rumor Touch tomorrow :p Any idea what happened to this phone? It has a 3g... how could it be gone if it is gone...

  • @JesusManson323 or its 25 dollars for unlimited everything but minutes theres 300... your plan sucks

  • @Scris101 Actually, I'm no longer on Helio plan as of May 25, 2010. I immediately went over to Virgin Mobile's $25 plan and have been very happy for the last few weeks. So I agree with you -- now that things have changed.

  • @JesusManson323 Whore much? Dumb cubt.

  • @JesusManson323 Whore cunt. Virgin Mobile sucks. U R a EPIC #fail. Dumb cunt.

  • @GreatUmbrage

    Ass much? shut up loser.Quit trolling with other people. Dumb ass

  • @JesusManson323 actually its $60 and $25: 300 anytime minutes, unlimited mesaging and web.

  • @hydramiga Actually, you came late to this video. HELIO doesn't exist anymore. Nobody can use that $65 HELIO plan or HELIO phone anymore. Since May 25, I have been on the $25 NEW plan with the Virgin Kyocera Loft.

    The above post applies to a totally different phone and a totally different plan that died on May 25 of this year.

  • @JesusManson323 does virgin mobile use sim cards

  • @spartan6199 Some phones do. But not the one I have right now: the Kyocera Loft. I don't think you can use sims on any Virgin phone. I think they are locked into the Virgin system.

  • @JesusManson323 actually its not. with vmobile u get all that 4 60 or all that with 300 tlk minutes for 25

  • @JesusManson323 what wireless service is that?

  • @JesusManson323 yeah dude it's hella of expensive. You can get nowadays a deal for $30 bucks a month with an Iphone.
