For the last 1.5 years i have had an S105 Phone with the T-mobile Family Plan. After my S105 was thrown the downstairs (not by me) the screen started crashing so i decided to get a new phone and upgrade my plan. With the Plan we got the E715 for myself, a V300 and a Nokie 6010. Since the E715 came out i wanted it but after getting the phone i wasn't to happy. Yes it is a nice phone and a samsung but it was uncomforable to talk on. So i decided to try the V300 and to my surprise it felt the same if not better then my S105 did. I decided to take the V300 instead as it had speaker phone and in my opinion the quality of the pictures looks better then the E715. It is a motorola which means 2 days of battery life if your lucky but if you just want a phone to take pictures with and talk on, this is a great phone, especially that it comes free in most places and you get bac 200 dollars on amazon. If you were able to answer the phone with speakerphone or call someone without even opening the phone, i would give this 5 stars.
