One of the best flip phones ever!! But damn is the titanium/silver color. T-Mobile only had these in black and red. I'd rather have this one.

@QUIKKSTAR Haha Yep! I thought the black one was pretty cool but the silver did make it very nice.

Does it have BBM

[TypicalB18]

@queenbeeheather I don't really remember since I didn't use that feature, but most like it should have since it's not too old. Not sure though. Sorry I couldn't help you.

You're the only person who mentioned the light sensor in phone! Thanks!

[TypicalB18]

@TypicalB18 Welcome!! Thanks so much for the help! I'm planning on adding a data plan to it anyway. Best wishes, LamborghiniBMWftw.

@LamborghiniBMWftw No Problem, well hope you get a good deal considering it's about a year or two old. Also just letting you know if you didn't know when activating through Verizon Wireless you will be required to ad a Data plan. I had just checked they only require a minimum of a $15 data plan for Blackberries & Android Phones. About a couple months ago it was about $30. Well good luck with the phone if you get it. Thanks!

@TypicalB18 Hello! Thanks so much for the help. I'm probably going to be buying this new or refurbished.

@LamborghiniBMWftw Hi,well personally I don't like predictive text, but it works fine but sometimes it can't seem to get the word you're trying to type. Since I bought this phone used the battery didn't perform at full potential. It would last about a week on stand by which is pretty normal compared to other phones, but I don't know about fully usage on the phone. I rarely used the internet on the phone so I can't tell you much. Are you buying this new or used? Hope it helped a little.
