(cont'd)

When it goes to send a text, if you "don't have" signal, it just says no. And it takes it a minute or more sometimes to realise you're in an area with signal. Would be so much better if it qued a message to be sent, and sent it when it could.

I know it can do this, because it does it with picture messages, just not texts

Overall, it's a cheap phone, and you get what you pay for in this case, it's in my opinion annoying to operate. It has its perks, but it's just annoying.

my opinions on this phone:

The operating system is buggy, and bloated, under some circumstances has graphical glitches and is generally slow to use.

I got the keyboard because I like to type by feel, but the keys are nearly flush with the bezel, so it's very difficult, also the keys are very small compared to other phones I've used.

The WASD area of the keyboard, especially the s key for me, does not activate with the tactile click, meaning you have many mistakes, and have to push overly hard

Does it come with a USB port for the computer?

[skierplaterandy]

@S0RandomPr0ductions no, and they rip you off to get one.

[guessit21]

@YellowBoySwaggg I don't think so. :(

where is the GPS function? i cant seem to find it.

[mattigi]

i heard you can watch youtube videos on this phone, can you? also can this read those black and white square "bar code" things?

[guessit21]

@mattigi Yes you can watch youtube videos, but not it's not a smartphone so it can't scan it.

[mattigi]

@guessit21 can it also upload videos you take on the phone to youtube or do you have to take the micro SD out to do so?

[guessit21]

@mattigi It is not possible to upload youtube videos i think, but yes you can record it to the MicroSD card and upload it through a computer.

Is there a 140 character limit when sending a text message with this phone? Or will it break a large text message into parts and send them separately?

[guessit21]

@sweetastrophe They limit should be 140 i think, it splitting texts into multiple texts might not be possible but it is with the LG Flick.

[guessit21]

@sweetastrophe Nevermind it should be 160 not 140.

Oh srry, nvm. Wrong phone.

How loud is the speaker compared to Ipod Touch 3? My speaker is very quiet and a lot of phones have really loud speakers. Thanks! =D
