The chocolates aren't very good. My husband and I each got one and we have had to take his back and get it replaced three times and mine once all within less than 5 months. Plus you have to buy the music software separately so unless you buy there software you cant use the music part or get your pics off it. It works alright for calling and texting but if you text a lot like we do the buttons wear off quickly. If you get even a small scratch on the screen you cant read stuff very well, and if you try to switch between calls you mute it half the time by touching your face to it. Overall if you don't get it cheap its not worth spending a lot on.
