Virgin Mobile Motorola Triumph Review 9to5google.com

[adrianman1204]

is this phone worth buying if i had the lg optimus v

[pcsretro]

@okbye1 the bettery last longer and i herd that it freezes alot when u have alot of apps after it turns slow to many problems

[okbye1]

at lest it has the mic and the speaker on the same side of the phone, not like the optimus v, which has the speaker on the back and the mic on the front :(

[pcsretro]

@MrChemistro get the lg optimus v its better

[okbye1]

@pcsretro I have the optimus V, how is it better, I thought the bigger screen is good and it does everything the V does?

[ARBuilder1776]

This phone is a joke. Glitchy screen that turns white or all the colors fade, buttons that don't respond and a touch screen that indicates a response to your touch by changing an icon but then does nothing. Sound quality is terrible, especially on speaker phone. My voice fades in and out and I have to repeat things. Battery life sucks even with wifi and blue tooth of and the screen set to go black after not being used for a few seconds. I had the i1 from Motorola and it was the same.

[MAFIAxHITTMAN]

This is the phone i am getting

[tietiana34]

@MAFIAxHITTMAN - this phone sucks , i wouldnt get it . but its all on you

[Fruityasyou]

[malditako01]

[GRI3S]

@malditako01 yes



[malditako01]

@GRI3S what if i'm using t-mobile prepaid.. does it still have it?

[GRI3S]

@malditako01 yes all of the prepaid carriers that i have seen (straght talk, gophone, virgin, boost, verizon ect.) have sim cards usually under the battery door

[GRI3S]

@malditako01 alright sorry i have gotten mistakin in the USA virgin dosn't use sim but in other countrys they do but t-mobile still does use sim

[malditako01]

@GRI3S omg.. i was happy when u said virgin mobile have sim cards.. but when u took it back i was like :( .. anyways.. thanks for the info.. so only tmobile carry simcards? sorry for my english//

[malditako01]

@GRI3S geez im so dumb.. i ask again.lol sorry. anyways.. what about at and t?

[GRI3S]

@malditako01 i know for a fact that att gophone does because i had a iphone on their gophone plan

[utubeblowsbigtime]

Just to let everyone know, theres no such thing as 4G.... 4G doesnt actually come into play until 2013-2014... Its not much faster because it really doesnt even exist. they just say 4G so people will go crazy and go buy anything that has 4G not knowing that it isnt even real.

[Hisgirlforever1012]

can u call international with virigin mobile? with a 55 plan ???

[GRI3S]

@Hisgirlforever1012 americas only

[GRI3S]

@Hisgirlforever1012 unless you pay the extra check their roaming policy

[jerdminaoxoxo]

dude. choose a phone to keep you have like 7...

[farstarfilms]

how u like speed when surfing and how do u like virgin service

[DotheDew221]

I still only pay $25 a month for unlimited everything (besides minutes)

[lilcrazyaznboy]

@DotheDew221 If you ever think about selling your account, please feel free to email me.

[hatsOFFtotheBULL]

@lexrox2photos Virgin Mobile does not have 4G. So all current phones, including the Triumph, is 3G. Btw, since virgin mobile is on the Sprint Network, 3G is not really 3G.

[good4damoney]

prices went up cause sprint bought virgin mobile and sprint also bought rights to start selling the new iphone s, Its bad news and good news.hopefully "straight talk" wont sellout and sell themselves too.

[ghbnf25]

DON'T BY THIS PHONE. HAD IT 2 WEEKS AND SHUT OFF. VIRGIN MOBILE WON'T SEND ME A REPLACEMENT AFTER I PAID FOR INSURANCE.

[MIZZchula10]

Does this phone have a flash for the camera?

[USAGamingMW2]

Only thing I don't like about this phone is the battery port issue and the fact that it is running Android 2.2, VM needs to keep their Android phones up-to-date... 

[nerdyPame13]

I loveeee this phone!!! Can u do anothet review on it to see what it looks like now plz!!! :)

[230flyer]

@lexrox2photos 3g

[ablovepink1991]

Is this phone really worth paying all that money for it though?

[Mockingbird115]

@ablovepink1991 yes

but if you can't afford 300 dollars which believe me is ridiculous

then look on ebay i got mine from there and only paid 150 for it. great phone the only downside is the android touch keyboard. i miss having a physical keyboard ):

[MrSwaggergirl14]

good fone but yuh borin as fukk niqqa shit soundin lyk sum damn nerd *nerd voice* ''it has 185 mega pixals'' damn less talkin more showing n exploring

[ATLskater94]

@MrSwaggergirl14 shut the up

[odog8888888888888888]

@MrSwaggergirl14 185 megapixels would be quite astounding.....

[MzRaquel23]

Thank you for this review! You got straight to the point!

[1234rishka]

Nice review and phones!

[jeremy122554]

Man i wish i had that many phones:(

[Aujanel]

im suppose to be getting this phone in January, its on sale for $239.99 right now.

[Candy4Naz]

@Aujanel Same. where are you getting it? It's 229 at walmart, but only online, but it comes out to like 245 -255 I think.

[Mockingbird115]

@Candy4Naz buy from ebay i got mine (used ofcourse) for 150 dollars.

[Aujanel]

@Candy4Naz the website (VirginMobile) was having a holiday sale. but its over now. Thanks though, Im gonna check out Walmart. p.s. amazon has it for $239.99 as well

[LuvCUTS]

Phone coverage is based on Sprints network. But 3g is slower than regular service 3g.

[DAHENDO23]

Sir lord branson your 3g sucks ass!

[Scwurt]

Why doesn't anyone ever discuss the actual phone service and coverage when doing these reviews?

[ARBuilder1776]

Wish there was an Otterbox or Trident case for this phone.

[macintard]

Oh yeah, I meant to say great review too. I'm going to look at the review for LG Optimus V for Virgin Mobile, which is what I have.

[macintard]

I have the LG Optimus V. It's a pretty decent phone with accurate GPS and I'm locked in at $25 a month because of when I bought it. I use Skype on 3G to make long calls. I try to avoid using my minutes. It's great for Internet! Better GPS would be nice but I've never gotten lost. I wish my LG did flash so there's this one. I wonder if I can get this one and stay locked in. I'll take my $25 a month over flash and GPS though. $300 is not in my budget either. Not right off but soon perhaps!

[theelvis4567]

Just got 1!!!!!!!!!! it only took 4 days to get here to!

[TOSWEETable]

boost mobile!!!

[transparentiam]

enter "CTDF0NE6" when you sign up and get an extra 60 minutes of airtime <3

[EzraHampton1]

Can I have your samsung intersept?

[Jcastro1992]

i still pay $25 a month since i stuck with virgin mobile :)

[TheKidKorey]

@Jcastro1992 same. i thought it was a glitch. haha. But, I'm about to get the Motorola Triumph i have the samsung intercept now.

[howsyourmind1]

@Jcastro1992 haha me too we got grandfathered in like a boss.

[ObeyTheMango]

@Jcastro1992 same here

[theelvis4567]

@Jcastro1992 Me 2

[SuperJuandude]

[theelvis4567]

[steveazusa]

[steveazusa]

[TheMrjamis]

[Hunterswag777]

@GreenStarMedia lmao you told his ass

[POINTZERO97]

It just went up by $10 big deal you cheap ass

[bobxxxyourmom]

wtf!! it used to be 25 a month now im pissed!!!!!!!

[pjguy1982]

this phone is crap. there are so many things wrong with this phone, i had to return my 4 times and some of my other friends had to as well stay away.

[MrChemistro]

@pjguy1982 Can You Tell Me What Problems This Phone Gave You? Im Thinkng If I Should Buy It But Dont Know If Its A Good Phone.

[ARBuilder1776]

@MrChemistro Its not a good phone IMO. Maybe I just got a crappy one but I have seen others with issues too. I'm selling mine this week after having it for only 2 months. I've had enough of its issues.

[MsDezza09]

' does this have a front face camera , ?

[BruisedChaos]

this isnt a review.. this is .. Uh.. Uh.. Uh.. a waste of uh.. my time

[shinenight]

I will trade you my ps3 slim 250g hard drive, one controller, God of war 3, and motorstorm. (Only games I have) for that phone

[QuiDior]

This is a bad ass prepaid phone! Hey,I'm all for paying $25 a month for 300 mins & unlimited text & data! VMUSA!!! ;)

Oh yeah,....SEXY phone! Hahahaha! :D

[Kurvegurl]

This couldn't be a official VM video, it's lousy.

[MrUnrealSoldier]

*Rebecca Black's face pops up* "Okay, that's enough of that."

[monsterscout69]

its the samsung intercept stupid

[OMGtrent]

@monsterscout69 No it's not, stupid.

[iNicoTECH]

sexiest prepaid phone to date. Great phone with great plans..

[BLACKDEATH2170]

does this droid have the option to change the notification bar black?

[RudyBeTrolling]

@BLACKDEATH2170 Its not a Droid.

[keybladewar]

1 gb snapdragon processor

[PhotoLabMP]

I've been a customer of Virgin Mobile for a while now and I have no complaints with their Android phones at all. You other folks can keep on paying your high cell phone bills every month while we Virgin Mobile consumers sit back and enjoy unlimited talk, text & data for only $55 a month. Do you like the fact that you have to pay upwards of $80 a month plus another $30 for a "smartphone data package"?

[weareplayback]

@PhotoLabMP You can even pay $35! Thats badass! I mean sure you only get like 200 minutes a month, but who uses the cellphone to talk 200 minutes nowadays? Its all about texting! If I call somebody, the calls dont even last 2 minutes...im all like "dude you there?.... - yea im here- cool i'll be there" end talk!!!

[GreenStarMedia]

@weareplayback 300 minutes for $35 actually

[Kendalltriche1]

@weareplayback where you get it

[Brittnoisers]

@weareplayback I believe it's 300 minutes for only $35 :o

[atticus27]

@weareplayback I pay $25 monthly for 300mins. that deal began last year...too bad they up'd the price to $35

[schizo5jk]

@atticus27 ikr. put they still charge me $25 instead of $35

[greatwhiteshark616]

@weareplayback lol nice example



[juboi24]

@weareplayback  lol ahaha thats sooo true

[cxixmx]

@weareplayback its 300 mins

[Mockingbird115]

@weareplayback virgin mobiles service however isn't the greatest but im not complaining

25 DOLLARS A MONTH FOO

[holla06]

@weareplayback human interaction is screwed lol

[RaWMe10]

@PhotoLabMP Lol did you get hired by virgin mobile to say that?:) but i totally agree yo!:)

[TheGeo133]

@QuiDior by the way im worldking133

[TheGeo133]

@QuiDior just saying. im not hating i got the optimus and i hacked it. i have experience with phones and know alot of shit about them. but just to b clear virgin mobile is stepping up their game just like your going to c other alternative providers to. its all business. but 4 those who want to buy a new vm phone i advise u to wait till end of year since two new phones r going 2 b released. htc wildfire and a lg slide for vm. yhayha!

[obbma4ler22]

How do you afford all these phones?

[MrHellabove]

Horrible reviewer not even a review just giving u the facts

[eduardocillo]

So much smart phones

[POUNDBASS]

[FaithApostolic]

my internet stopped working on my Motorola triumph all of sudden after a couple of days of the purchased,has this happened to anyone else?

[gerardohh779]

@FaithApostolic i think it has to do with the virgin mobile network. i have a rumor touch and i haven't been able to go on the internet for the past week.

[FinFags]

@FaithApostolic I have to turn my intercept off and turn it back on to reconnect to the network...

[FaithApostolic]

@FinFags what's the intercept

[FaithApostolic]

my internet stopped working on my Motorola triumph all of sudden after a couple of days of the purchased,has this happened to anyone else?

[NICKMIST3R]

Screen resolution?

[NICKMIST3R]

What is the screem resolution?

[BlackoutDOTcom]

Weird.... I had the exact opposite..... GPS didn't work... screen was tinted blue and not as clear... recption was lower than LG optimus 5.. do you have software version ending in .38 or .39?

[davideoking101]

@BlackoutDOTcom the blue screen is from a seccond screen protector. youtube how to get it off

[BlackoutDOTcom]

@davideoking101 know about that.. still weird problems with mine.. line of pixels sometimes down the middle.. really bad reception... gps doesn't work... what version of the software do you have can you look and tell me ?

[davideoking101]

@BlackoutDOTcom 3.2 i think

[arturo0j1122]

@POUNDBASS no it doesn't take talking time and yes u can use it with ur wifi router and infact u can download and app for free texting and calling and u can text and talk as long as u keep it hooked up with the wifi

[starvinmarvin305]

[famefame155]

[CharlesDunton]

[animefreakjay]

[eduardocillo]

[virginmobiledroid]

It would be so awesome if Virgin Mobile was able to launch the Iphone here in the USA like they did in Australia. For now this is 2nd best. If you do get a virgin mobile phone use this code to get an hour of free airtime: 8LNGYs9G

[FiNALLYFAMOUS94]

lol rebecca black starts singing & he exited out FTW!!!!

[EseFamoso13]

Android is better then apple, easier to navigate, simpler interface and customizable options... Go google, cant wait for Google+

[TheStickman444]

Haha it's the Samsung Intercept but either way good video.

[lynwoood123]

How do I download music to my triumph? Do I need to download any other type of application?

[r1oot]

[GarciaEnt1]

rebecca black -_-

[bigboy6969100]

I have vm for 8 years and I got the 25 buck plan I got the Optimus v when I send pix on face book it dont go tru only once or if I try to upload a video on you tube it don't go tru wtf

[REDSAMURAI307]

@bigboy6969100 i got the optimus v right now, an looking to upgrade to this...and i upload pics to FB, and videos to youtube just fine. is the gmail account you put into your phone when you first started valid? when i first started i put a yahoo account in at first, and i couldn't access ANYTHING from the web...had to restart the phone and MAKE a gmail account for that reason alone. or you can call VM an have them trouble shoot.. support is pretty good with them.

[poynor148173]

yeah u get more screen but its a longer phone also so of course you would!

[poynor148173]

no one cares about the sizes! we wanna no of what the phone can/cant do!

[timothyxxxpaul]

Why do you have 648649 phones?!

[AVeLLiiii]

I agree with everything you said the only thing I would say is that the rubber does not make it cheap. It actually makes the phone more durable and stronger. Which is always a plus to me. Some people are are to lazy to buy cases so this phone would be in their favor :D

[Juwankjjk]

Evething sucks on a iphone the plane does to.

[bigboy6969100]

I got the 25 month plan why they say 35

[m0ren0r]

cuz yu were signed up for VM before they started charging 35.. same thing happen wit me

[irvin295]

@bigboy6969100 they had to go up because of this phone

[NadiaAmusic]

[AvatarMaster9x]
