  • Ok everybody is saying it's a dumb $300 because it's not an Android. That's why MetroPCS lowered it's price to $40. Your not gonna get a phone like this for $40. It's a total steal!

  • ITS 40 BUCKS NOW YEAH

  • how fast can this 4g metropcs phone go? how many kbps?

  • Should I get the samsung craft or the samsung admire that metro just came out with? BTW for the person who did this review, if you dont have nothing good to say about a phone then DNT DO A FREAKIN REVIEW!!!!!

  • @chelleyluvsretro19 get it its 40 bucks now!

  • @chente9212 i know :DDD

  • @chente9212 where can i buy it at that price

  • Youre just saying that because you have gay ass t mobile you fuking low life

  • an it only has 4 hrs talk time an the phone its self over heats...

  • yeaaah i own this phone it is a bit slow i found it too touchy no to good at regular web browsing bit frustrating yea....and as i found out later on...noooow people wanna say how plan it is...idk what is the hype bout it

  • OOOHH YYYEEEAAAHHH!!! I'M GONNA BUY A HOUSE PHONE YAY FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!

  • ok this phone looks just like the Samsung Rogue from Verizon Wireless! does anyone agree with me on this one?

  • Wow!you're a very good reviewer.

  • ur a fucking bitch, that fone is fine, ur just hatingggggggggggggggggggg

  • This is a vert good review phonescoop, I have the phone, and like you said, I dont know why this phone made it to market, it is truly a museum piece. Your reviews are excellent, keep it up.

  • 4G ???? , Not A SmartPhone ???!!! Smh.

  • @SuperShawnbell 4G doesn't make it a smartphone haha. the OS, browser, email, multi-tasking capabilities, processor speed, etc have also effect on whether it is a smartphone or not.

  • @Tazy50 ooh ?

  • I mean nothing coming fresh out will be on top of it's game... look at microsoft....every single OS they have ever launched had some type of problem that's why they keep release patches and updates to fix the problem. I mean for Metro Pcs this is big... I have the Samsung code and the Blackberry both from metro...And I love both of them....This is by no means a smart phone so if you looking for a smartphone then this isn't the phone for you...this is for people who want a few extra features

  • Funny I didn't have any of the problems this guy is having....the phone moved very smooth...videos were awesome....and the metro apps well i mean it's a metro phone so if you don't have the apps then maybe you should use one those highly over priced carries....I mean this is a awesome phone for metro and I have metro since they first started business...you know back when they only had 5 phones all the same color...so for them to have a 4G phone is really awesome...

  • When my tmobile contract ends im movin back to metro, i miss them, and its alot cheaper

  • lol that review was funny as shit. He hates Metropcs. Damn he got my crying lmao.

  • omg this guy is fking annoying! seriously no one cares that you dont like it buddd. this is prolly the best phone that metro has come out wit. so shut yur mouth(:

  • @legenddarysaiyan5......lol...­......it's not about what u have, it's about being smart.SADDDDDDDDD YOUR FUCKEN STUPID DUDE GET A JOB!!!lol

  • I respect your review but you're an annoying tool.

  • Maybe you should have used it for a few days before you actually put out a review and bashed this phone, I have had it for awhile now and it is super simple to use, and does everything I need it to.

  • Thanks for the heads up. Terrible phone on such an amazing 4G network

    Metropcs is really stepping up. If anyone is thinking about getting a newer phone from metro, I suggest the LG Optimus M

  • WHAT THE HELL DO YOU EXPECT FOR 40 BUCKS A MONTH COMPARED TO AT&T'S 140 A MONTH WITH THE iPHONE 4. METRO PCS IS THE BROKE ASS BITCH PEOPLES PHONE COMPANY. GET OFF OF WELFARE AND GET A REAL JOB AND THEN YOU TOO COULD HAVE A REAL SMART PHONE. JUST SAYING THATS ALL.

  • @Legendarysaiyan5 okk first of all u just made urself sounfd like a reall ass....n metro is not the BROKE ASS BITCH PEOPLES PHONE COMPANY.... i have a metro phone n guess wat i own a humer have a fantastic job n a big beutifull house...only ignorant people like u would make such a stupid coment like that...n since ur so against metro well get the fuck of this page!!!!!

  • @ashleychevez1313 Amen :)

  • @Legendarysaiyan5 and the craft is not 40 bucks a month, you must be on the 55 to 60 dollar plan to even use this phone.

  • @Legendarysaiyan5 if u u ddnt kno.. metro said its not a smart phone its jus 4g but it isnt that good

  • @Legendarysaiyan5 Nope your wrong its for people who don't have credit yet (Which is me) or people who have bad credit.. Hell u don't even have to have bad credit to get this phone those other phone company's are way to high..and you don't have be poor or rich to get this phone... I can get any phone i want from any company i want and have my mom pay for it, but i'm 17 i want to learn to pay my own bills without someone doing it for me.. it's not about what u have, it's about being smart.

  • @Legendarysaiyan5

    Metro Pcs is for smart people. WHO SPENDS 140 DOLLARS A MONTH?? When you can spend 40 DOLLARS. WOW. Your gonna be broke in 2 years! And I am not broke. My dad earns so much in one year and my mom doesn't even have to work. My older sister who is 20 doesn't have to work either or my brother or my other brother. And yet, we still could afford, blackberries, androids, Macbooks, laptops, so many expensive cameras etc. Do I sound like I am on welfare?

  • @Legendarysaiyan5 ass wipe

  • If you notice the T-mobile phone loaded a full FLASH advertisement.

  • This fone is terrible dont waste your money

  • Bad 'Review'.

    phonescoop this is not a 'Smartphone' so it's not going to have the processing speed and all the 'bells & whistles' that most other $400+ phones have.

  • don't waste your time watching this "review"..

    all he does is talk about every little thing that he personally doesn't like about this phone.

  • idkk why your dissing this phone so badly and to be honest i think this phone is legit soooo idkk whyy your saying all this badd stuff about it. andd a phone isnt ment too be a laptop. ITS A PHONE!!! chill out....im still getting this phonee no matter what!

  • @foreveryoung2119 hey try the lg optimus m. phone's sick! it's a smart phone.

    runs smooth. check it out to though before you buy craft. lg runnin on droid 2.2

  • why is 4g slower than 4g?

    

  • Do you have to type like that tho?

  • the lg optimus is better than that ..... you should make a video about it !!!!

  • You didn't even really explain the phone all you did was BITCH about the phone , jeez STFU . ANNOYING AS HELL. Reminded me of a 1st grader !

  • its the only cool phone metro has at least

  • BEAUTIFUL VIDEO !!!!!!!!!!!!

    Amazing Review!

    but this garbage ass phone... smh

  • you know what i take the comment when i said the phone is horrible i have to admit its a good phone but i just think the lg optimus is better im sorry guys.

  • this phone is horrible the only thing that is good about it is its keyboard and thats about all. the phone i recommend you getting from metro pcs is the lg optimus waaaay better than this and cheaper this is $350.00 and the lg optimus is $230.00 and its an android cant beat that.o yeah and did i mention the touch screen is smoother and doesnt lag.

  • I just saw that metro came out with the lg optimus m which is their first smart phone...the only thing that sucks is that its on metros regular internet and not on any g network...i like it a lot better then this phone because i love the android market. I wonder if metro will update some existing phones (lg optimus m) to the 4g network. that would be great!

  • @BreeBroo...

    Bought the phone...it's the same as the Caliber. Only difference is..it's a tad bit faster. I sold the phone a week after I had it. I bought the BlackBerry and it is wayyyyy better!

  • look phonescoop stfu okay u complain wayyyyyyyy 2 much y tha fuck do u have the phone if its "widgets are useless" and its not as good as the other networks ok soo stop waiting ur time being a bitch and suck it up god dammit

  • I want this phone so bad, but they still have not released it in South Florida!=(

  • Comment removed

  • @TheJerbear207 yes its also has a camera with flash

  • Naw buddy i thinks its just you. You dont know how to use it and this video is just so not helping. You are soposed to review the phone not talk negetive about it. You sound like a real perfect ass.

  • how much was it..??

    

  • @999uchiha $299.99

  • hey can any one help me, should i get this phone or the caliber? I know this phone has a keyboard but put tht aside which one? I heard this one is laggy concerning html browsing but im not hardcore on the internet on my phone if at all ill do fantasy scores or shit like tht once in a while i mainly text but i like touchscreens too like the samsung impression had on screen qwerty key and a slide key n it was great buit it fgot stolen... so messager back

  • @IcyFreezeballs4 I have the caliber. And this phone is so much better. Dont listen to that crazy man. He's just talking junk.

  • 2nd load is faster because of cookies so it kinda already had it saved on the phone before

  • Metro PCS phones are expensive but worth because we only pay about $50 a month for UNLIMITED EVERYTHING!!!! I had T-Mobile and I payed $90 even more a damn month!!! That's how much I pay for my 2 Metro lines.

  • I like this phone. I had the Windows Code and it's pretty nice and one of the most expensive phones for Metro. Sadly someone(boyfriend) got pissed off at me and threw the phone and broke it. It was ment to be because I owed him money and since he broke my phone too bad. Now I get to buy me the Samsung Craft!!! YAY ME!

  • @MissDallasTX

    Would you mind telling me how you likeee tha phone, when you get it? Cause i also have tha Code and i'm thinking about getting this phone, but i'm not sure if this one will be better or worse than tha code. So if you could tell me how you liked it, that'd a great help. (:

  • @MissDallasTX girl u need to leave that crazy fucker alone lol. im glad u got a new phone tho. smh.

  • @MissDallasTX Nobody really cares.

  • @MissDallasTX

    the code actually got recalled... it has dipshit problems like messages not being able to b recvived once the memory fills (u have to empty ur memory periodically even tho u set evrything to auto save to the card). Be glad the code is gone. Alot of ppl bring those back other ppl love the samsung code i thuaght it was cool until i checked it out i was disapointed.

  • hey if anyone reads this comment please reply would u get the samsung caliber or this one just wondering???

  • Comment removed

  • @SuperJuandude This one....this one is expensive but the Caliber does not have a keyboard. It's just the screen. I had the old Samsung Finesse and it froze on me...I couldn't do anything, I only had that phone for 5 months and I still had warranty but I didn't know so I screwed myself and ended up buying the Metro Windows Mobile Phone Code. This one is nice because you can watch videos...you can't watch them on the Caliber or Finesse. And it's wayy faster :)

  • Samsung Crap!!

  • You can't review and be so bias. Straight up dissing the phone dawwg :|

  • Fuck Phonescoop.! 

  • phones garbage! get ya $ up and buy sprint Epic by samsung!

  • NOW IT"S IN LOS ANGELES :D

  • I like this dude! The review is quite funny and he is telling the truth straightly! I loled at how he describe the horribly unresponsive touchscreen (although I have to say I think some good resistive unit like Nokia 's are quite responsive) and how is this going to be a museum phone! Impressive review.

  • I agree when they was going to create a 4G network they should of throw the Software in as well. I thought they was going to put windows 6.5 or Android 2.1 or something. Nope just samsung widget. which is limited and boring. The software hold back the phones limit to test 4G

  • should i get this phone or wait for a android version

  • becasue this aint a smartphone smart ass and shut up u complain to much

  • a whole lot more honest review compared to the other ones

  • dude the phone is not that bad. like SODMG313 said ur dissin the phone. do u have some thing against metro

  • @antagonist141 Right.!

  • $72.50/month gets you this phone and the service for unlimited everything for 2 years. Frankly, it has everything any normal person needs. This reviewer is basing his speed comparisons on 4G that has been up and running for a whopping 3 weeks. It will get faster. To buy a higher end phone from any other carrier, you can expect to pay well over $100/month, including the cost of the phone and the service, and that will likely not even be unlimited everything.

    He didn't even review the new gps

  • @1dgg9h4dr6ppp8  I strongly agree !!

  • How much is it?? Because if its over 300 i will rather just use At&t

  • @CannibalKesha luck you, its 299

  • WHEN IS THIS PHONE GONNA BE SOLD IN LOS ANGELES?

    AND DOES IT PLAY YOUTUBE VIDEOS?

  • @imvu09 its in Los Angeles And Yes It Has Youtube

  • what an idiot! he's jealous cuz he pays alot more then $60 a month on his t-mobile

  • Hiya dose this phone have a onscreen keyboard ?

  • LTE is great, it's Metro that's making it suck.

  • hows the battery life?

  • probably slow because of the phone

  • I gave up on metro phones serious :-(

  • Imagina how much battery it takes up!

  • Feauture phones gets slower and slowerrr

  • @tommykrongyut123 no sydney from phonedog made a better review with better detail and she opened it in front of you, he downloaded more apps cuz i didnt c some of them on syney's vid, give it another thought and watch her vid not this guys whos always complaining on little things

  • get used to it you . the phone is pretty good .

  • I WORK FOR METROPCS NOW. AND I HAVE TO SAY EVEN THO THIS PHONE HASNT BEEN RELEASED HERE JUST YET. I AM PRETTY DISAPPOINTED WITH THIS PHONE.

    I THOUGHT IT WAS GOING TO BE ALOT BETTER BUT SEEMS LIKE THE CALIBER WITH A KEYBOARD.

  • which is better the samsung caliber or craft?

  • @xbox360ps3pspgamer I hope you are joking about the part of it being better than a Nexus One.....Shows your limited knowledge on phones.  The Nexus one although outdated for an Android Phone is leagues better than this crap of a phone.

  • i thought they have it in florida.... =[

  • Metro PCS should have made it a android phone ,Samsung Craft = Sh!tty Crap

  • Why do people always dis metropcs.? Like They Better That At&T & Sprint verzion etc....

  • @CallMehGemini2 Bcuz metro piece of shit is always playing catching up, when it comes 2 cell phones. There whole network is in the stone age. I know this from experience. I hope they go outta business.

  • @CallMehGemini2 i no rite

  • i really like ur review .. and totally agree on everything u said ... this phone suxks .. !! .. not to hate but its true .. me myself i work for metro pcs .. and i wouldnt get it .. f*kkk that .. lol . totally suxks .. wat a dissappointment to launch 4g phone with a crapp phone .. i think the huawei m750 from metro pcs . is almost the same as this .. sam craft ..

  • nexus was still faster since it was loading flash...if u turned of the flash the nexus would have dusted it both times

  • Hi , quick question , dose the phone have a onscreen keyboard ?

  • @lovelylesly1 Thats the same thing I was wondering.

  • do you know when this phone will be available in los angeles or is it out now

  • will they offer 3g i have a flashed droid so eill the 3g work on it

  • @TheMballin316 nope metroPCS is not a 3G company.

  • @mrcooltwix Depends on the city, some Metro cities are 3G (Dallas, Philadelphia, Detroit, Los Angeles, etc.)

  • do they also have 3g i have a flashed droid so would 3g work

  • do they also have 3g i have a flashed droid so would 3g work

  • how much is the phone?

  • @M4rl0natOr $300 + tax and the plan is $55 for basic 4G or $60 (for streaming video)

  • @mrcooltwix

    oh god...

  • Comment removed

  • This phone fucking fails.

  • are u telling me thats the samsung craftt that phone is a piece of shiiittttt is garbage

  • @metro is different from metro studio because in metro studio yoy can buy full track songs and soon you will be able to watch video on demand. I work at metro and i think the phone is really good but people keep comparing it to the androids and bla bla bla so they'll never be happy with any phone

  • What are the specs of the phone ?

  • Hardware is great. Software is terrible

  • Compare this phone with Sprint's Evo 4G and Epic 4G and you will see that WiMax works much better.

  • Metro was crappy, now they have the Blackberry 8530 so they got better at least a bit. Now with this phone Crap has a new name "Metro"

  • could u do a review on de vodafone 945

  • @killmewendisisover Sorry, we only review phones on the U.S. market.

  • You just don't know what the hell you are doing dude. Sounds like a Google Nexus Mark to me.

  • Wrong guy reviewing this phone.....

  • Does it multi-task?

  • pooooooooooooop

  • NERDS will always complain. You cannot compare a 300$ phone to a 600$ phone. And you have to remember that you dont need a contract with metro. NERDS this days...

  • @ever2146 No offense man, but the Google Nexus One is considered outdated by todays standards of Smartphones.  Metro really needs to step up their game.

  • YA WAT kasam50 said!!!!!!!

  • it looks like 4G failed.

  • Shit its still better than my metro phone!

    you just a hater!

  • @kasam50 i agree he hatin hard

  • im still gonna buy it.. he was dissin dat phone

  • @SODMG313 but seriously i expected a lot from the phone it shouldnt be choppy and the internet shouldnt load so slow. The os doesnt run smoothly and the interface looks a joke.... i was really about to buy this phone when it hit my market but after this review ill just stick to my blackberry.... DROID THE FUCKING PHONE!!!!!!

  • @jessefeo Yah I'm just going to stick to my Samsung Code (wishing I had the Blackberry for Wi-fi connectivity). But the Samsung Code is a great phone.

  • @SODMG313 he sure was

  • @SODMG313 lol...me too

  • @SODMG313 Let me know how it turns out. im thinking about getting this

  • @edheadial my sister jus got it she loves it its pretty gud she says.... im with t-mobile tho and id think im gonna switch... what phone do u hve i hve a blackberry curve

  • @SODMG313 im with tmobile i have the samsung smile.

  • Sounds like Samsung Crap :S

  • how much do u have to pay a mouth!!!

  • @phatharvey 95 dollars

  • i think i can say that the caliber is better...

  • @bumwidafone The caliber and craft are basically the same except the craft is 4G.

  • what a bad job by Samsung they could have made it better.

    @xavierp0nce- i don't think it was because it was run on MetroPCS 4G LTE the phone itself just look like crap my Finesse runs better and i bet the same for the Caliber Samsung just did a bad job on the phone. 

  • SUCH A LOUSY JOB REVIEWING THE PHONE, WHERES THE YOUTUBE REVIEW ON THE PHONE. DIDN'T REVIEW THE APPLICATIONS. YOU SHOULD DO IT AGAIN.

  • Just watching this bothers me. Such a lousy job for a company like Samsung.

  • Does this phone play any flash content?

  • @TheBudda2006 I think so, because i seen a youtube app on it and youtube is mostly flash videos so my guess would be that it can

  • @mcgiggity69

    The iPhone has a YouTube app as well, but it doesn't support flash. YouTube videos play differently when run through an app than they would on your computer.

    I'm not sure how it works, I just know it's different.

  • @abzvinny318 oh ok.

  • @abzvinny318 youtube plays just fine on my Blackberry with no app. I just go to youtube and watch whatever I want.

    This phone needs an app to watch youtube? WTF?

    Sent from my BlackBerry® by Boost Mobile.

  • @Avatarblackwolf

    It may be a special player built for your Blackberry. Try a less, well known video player, and if it works than your Blackberry supports flash. However, you're Blackberry is a smartphone, and that piece of junk up there is anything but.

  • @abzvinny318 Why would I want to try a less, well known video player to watch youtube when my Blackberry has played youtube since day 1? Your comment makes no sense. My Blackberry is a smartphone that appears to be smarter then you. What a dumbass.

    Sent from my BlackBerry® by Boost Mobile

  • @TheBudda2006 No it does not, you can see when he does a speed comparison between the browser on the Nexus one and the Browser on the Craft. There's a Flash animation that the Google Nexus One plays on it's Android 2.2 OS (Froyo) and the Craft does not play it at all.
