It does everything I need it to do, its not the first SE phone I've had. Three things keep it from being better:1: The screen is not very bright - almost impossible to read in daylight - I've noticed this is a problem with all SE phones; if you like a nice bright display in a cheap phone get an LG2: The buttons are tiny - hard to hit with my fat fingers3: No camera - I've gotten used to having them in my phonesGood Battery Life - Good fringe reception - good basic phone
