I've had this phone fro a few months now. It replaced my Sony Ericcson which I loved. This phone, however, has several features that are better than the Sony. The screen is bright, big, and very colorful. The resolution is amazing. I personally don't like flip phones, so the slider function is great. There are a few drawbacks though. The battery life is about 1/3 as good as my Sony. I have to charge it every night and I don't talk on the phone all that much. The speakerphone is great, but for caller ID ringtones the sound is aweful. I love the picture caller ID, but it was a pain in the butt to get my computer to sync up with the phone. Also, the keys are rather hard to push which makes text messaging a bit of a pain. Even with these complaints I wouldn't trade this phone for another one and highly recommend it.
