PROS:-Allows one person to talk to another person. (sometimes even with acceptable voice quality)-Average reception (Best thing about the phone, and it's only average)CONS:-The high pitched noise that is randomly(and frequently) made by the screen/speaker not only destroys call quality, but routinely gives me a headache after only a few minutes. This noise is present on both my wife's phone and my own, as well as numerous other reviews-Even when the high pitched noise is not present, voice quality is usually very poor.-Fails in just about every aspect of what a phone should do well.OTHER: Search other reviews and look for references to the high pitched noise. I read them and figured that it was hype or that I "would get a good one." Do not buy this phone, you will be dissapointed.
