i used to have that phone...'used' to becuase that phone broke SO many times and the top fell off the bottom peice all the time...the verizon store is on a first name basis with me becuase of that god awful phone...blah, not to mention the shitty charger it comes with that breaks as many times as the phone, but hey maybe you've had better luck with it
this phone sucks, lagging voicemail/txt notifications, dodgy button response times, the touch buttons like to go off on thier own, and the battery starts losing endurance after 3-5 charges.
im gettin this phone im gettin the purple and black 1 bt i want the red and white 1 but my dad already got the phone for me sooo all i gotta do is get it from himwhen i see him sum day lol
If anyone wants to know the pros and cons of this phone, send me a message and I'll tell you what I have experienced from owning this phone. I've owned it since July of '09, but it died a couple weeks ago. I do know what I'm talking about, just ask what you need to know.
I really don't think so. Mostly because it has glitches in it (at least when I had it), and it's pretty fragile, so it can break any day. But that's up to you, if you think your experience may be different from mine. And mine was horrible.
no not right after you record it but after you record it as a sound send it to yourself in a text message and then save it as a ringtone. Hope I helped
hmm its all personal opinion, theyre both good phones ive had a clamshell flip phone the voyager and wanted to get the slider for something different, and ive been liking sliding better, i think the enV touch has plenty of more features and is a better phone in general but i dont think the battery life is that pleasable, so it depends on if you want long battery life or shorter
well yea it does, like if you have like 200 stocked up itll take a good 3-4 minutes lol but its stored me up to 400 something messages its good a huge memory for that
I will never buy another Motorola phone EVER !! always have issues,example the stupid charger connector design that is so small and fragile that fails in the phone requiring a phone replacement. I've owned many Motorola designs and will never again,my opinion.
ya dude, sidekick and the g1 are my number1 fave phones but i have verizon which sucks, i just want a slider and a smaller phone lol. i like the design of the rival
^^ I have the same problem as you - Verizon kinda sucks. At the moment I have the LG Chocolate 2 which is really a pain for texting. I would really like something with a touch screen AND a qwerty keyboard - like the EnV touch, but I'm not sure I would like the clamshell as opposed to simply sliding.. plus I want something pocketable. If only the Samsung Glyde wasn't such a failure...
see thats how i am... i want a slider phone and i like buttons more than touch screen but i heard for the a455 its just for dialing...thats a plus!!! and verizon epicly failed on the glyde...and its over priced...

chris1sings1good 2 years ago
True, sliding is better. I really like the Sidekick style phone.
But think of the flip as a positive, one screen is primarily for touch screen activities, while the other is for texting.
