      My dad bought me this phone for my birthday yesterday and we ordered it from amazon. I love how it is on the 3G network so it works fast! It is compatible with my old kyocera xtc chargers, as most samsungs are, and the screen and apps are all new and easy to use. The camera is great except that it doesnt zoom but the video camcorder does. I love how youtube works and how awesome this phone is! The keyboard is so much better than the xtc and my ipod headphones fit into the jack instead of the special phone headphones that the kyocera needed. It is not cheaply made at all but is still eco friendly! Highly recommend it!

      This phone is a nice, capable phone.
      It’s attractive looking, has a nice camera, and internet capabilities.
      The internet is a bit slow, but so is the internet on my Kindle. 3G isn’t perfect, and one can hardly expect it to be.
      A HUGE tip: DON’T USE THE PROVIDED CHARGER! The provided charger is a “quick-charge” which will ruin both the charger and battery in your phone by cracking the anodes due to overheating. I would suggest getting a standard Samsung charger, e.i., the one for the T369, or a Kindle charger, since they are all compatible.

      [...]

      It’s a bit expensive, I know, but it will save you a bundle on a new battery, and/or phone when the current charger blasts it out of the water

      I’m a heavy texter. I needed a physical keyboard. I wanted something cheap but fun. That being said there really wasn’t any other choice on Virgin mobile for me.
      I’ve had mixed feelings for this phone over the month or so I’ve owned it.

      The phone is pretty awesome because it texts really fast, it has an OK camera, not great, but then again if a great camera was on your agenda you wouldn’t even be looking here. Google maps on this phone came in pretty this summer on my job. I would get texts to random locations I needed to be at and plugging them into the Google maps on this for directions was pretty simple. The music player function is pretty cool as well
      I didn’t give it all 5 stars because there is some lag when the keyboard slides open after some time using it
      What I don’t like about this phone is the lack of games and ringtones. Virgin mobile continues to advertise this as a phone capable of using ringtones and it simply doesn’t. Not a deal breaker though if you just want it for texting.
      I still love it though and would recommend it to anyone who wants something simple with good battery life. It’s rather sexy looking, this phone, at night when the keys light up
