@rKgKeViN95 it all depends and wether you believe it or not the area of where you live actually determined on your battery life too for example 3G takes A LOT of your battery but if you live in a area will 3 or preferable 4 and up bars 3G wont be a problem for you but lets say your in a bad area 3 bars or less 3G will hog up all your battery No joke at all you'll be seeing your percentage of the battery drop like a timer. it also depends on brightness of the phone display nd other little things
i got the prevail and its a shitty phone but im kind of glad i did cuz i got the android when the 55$ plan didnt exist yet so ive been shrinking so ima get this and still pay $40 a month :p #shrinkage
@skmdbc yes but you'll have to flash it to boost which is pretty hard and even if you do flash it some features wont work correctly ur better off justing buying the samsung transform ultra or the ZTE warp from boost
oh wow that's really cool. can u get gingerbread on this phone? and So you just went to the store and bought it? how do you pay monthly like go to the store and in cash or like online?
@YoItsBrandonA its called nexus and to get it go tap and hold on the screen and something should come up with a list go to wallpapers then choose live wallpapers and theres a list of wallpapers and the nexus one is there jut tap it and it will enable but you should know that it drains battery very fast
Hey ma friend, you still liking your transform ultra. I'm thinking of p/u it. I saw a good deal of it on qvc.com. 199.99 but also includes car charger, carrying case and couple more things. ZTE Warp is out now too. looks good also.
@treyrod1998 yeah if you already have an account when you switch handsets on your boost account it will say that you have to get the android plan in order to activate this phone and you can just select it right there and your phone will be activated
@juanrochacarlos ik but would you really consider that an android device?? lol its running android 1.5 cupcake how sad is that? and a majority of the apps in the market is not compatible i wouldnt consider that an android device
@THEOFFICIALTODALUTE to be honest its still pretty good but th screen sensitivty can be annyoing at times but other than that its still pretty good go look at my channel and look at the newest video i posted about the phone just so you know what im talking about with the screen
@THEOFFICIALTODALUTE yes it is still good the only thing i would make sure you check is your signal with boost because if its an area where you yonly get 1 bar or less your phone will die dramatically within 6 hours for search for service all day so if your signal is pretty good with boost you wont have a problem at all with battery life
@shemmar360 How is Boost Mobile's actual service?... I know a few years ago it really sucked! Is there a problem downloading ringtones & stuff like that?
Mix in some tissue and just blow your nose Shemar your snorting snot every other second is not cool would have been a good review except for that......Kenwood01
thats awesome that it runs flash, its about time a phone on the prepaid market utilized some of the features that were initially reserved for the higher end android phones
has it had any glitches? like slows down randomly, or randomly puts in letters in texts, or random slow 3g internet in all bars? i thinking about get the phone soo honestly would help a lot, and thank you.
Is the camra good? i looked at like everybodys video and they dont click on the camra button cause i wanna see if its good at taking pictures -____- please tell meeee
@itzGraciela yeah the rear camera is pretty good for a 3mega pixel camera it focus rlly fast but not in video it doesn't have the focus feature but over all its still great for videoing but if ur planning on videoing like a electronic device or videoing ur computer screen for whatever reason it doesn't focus but in takinng pics it will and as far as the fron facing camera goes its "iight" lol nothing to be excited about
Hey, I don't have boost mobile but am considering switching over from StraighTalk. I had the Straight Talk Precedent phone that is the same phone as the Prevail. I ended up returning it b/c the phone was horrible. The battery didn't last AT ALL and the screens would freeze. You used one app and your battery would be half gone. Out of curiosity, since you had the Prevail, how is the battery time? Would you say a major improvement?
Great and very indepth review, I really appreciated it. If I may may though, you sniff about every 3 to 5 seconds and it's very very difficult to continue to watch this b/c of that. Please address that, take a sinius pill alegra or something but we can't watch your video's unless you do. Not trying to be cruel it's just that bad that I had to mention it.
@nugieyang Yea. That phone looks kind of like the Galaxy Prevail, I think that the Transform Ultra will still be better. The wrap just has a better camera.
I wish it was a 4inch with super amoled display than ill get but yet again the the bigger the screen the more battery it sucks but 4inch in what I like my screen to b so idk ill might get this as Christmas gift to my girl friend she have the sleek and I'm not going to boost cuz I have T-Mobile and my g2x is the shit LOL only thing it need a keyboard and thats be that
@nugieyang it all just depends where you live if you get atleast 3 bars where you live then you wont have a problem with the phone while browsing the web
@hottathenwasabi thanks and no problem i also just uploaded a video of how do a hard reset on it and i will be doing a hardcore 3D games video to show you that there is no lagg or anything because 1ghz processor is great
@shammar360 so that phone is way better than the prevail cuss I.have it n it suck it does force close n I can't get alot of apps n the batterie life SUCKS
alright so on some other videos people are saying that the battery life sucks on this phone an some others are saying its great.. whats up with that?
