Having been through a few cell phones now, when I decided to switch carriers, I was forced to make a new phone choice. After instant savings and mail in rebates, I chose my phone because it was cost effective and came with what appeared to be a lot of features. Overall, it is a good phone for the money. If you like to play the free games on your phone, skip this one. After less than 5 minutes per game, your trial runs out and you must purchase to continue. I have to say this was a big draw back for me once I realized this.
