HTC ain't bad, but this phone is all wrong!

26 Aug 2008 by Anonymous

4 out of 10

This phone sucks...Stay away from this phone... Far away.. I have had my fair share of phone that I loved in the past, but I have owned this phone for like 6 months maybe more now, and I completely hate it. I actaully ordered the blackberry 8120 and I am waiting to get it. I tried holding off for a newer phone to come out hearing that by Decemeber T-Mobile should have a pretty good selection of phones, including that new andriod powered htc dream. I just couldnt hold off anymore.

to say i'm disappointed is an understatment

i got my shadow not to long ago, in march or 08, it is now august and the phone is completely unusable through no fault of my own.

the phone it self looks decent, and i love the feel of the soft touch paint, but thats about all i can say about this phone as a plus. it does not come with a memory card, and is pretty memory intensive, meaning after a few pictures or text messages it starts to slow down and it gets frustrating, while this is an easy fix, i don't feel like one should have to spend the extra money for something that most phones in this price range already come with.

once i got it and had it updated it seemed to work well enough, for about a week or so. i started to have a lot of issues with the phone freezing up, or becoming non-responsive for short amounts of time. the phones reception is also rather poor, as with the dash that a few of my friends have(same phone basicly), i was ready to cancel my contract with t-mobile after a month because almost every call i had was dropped which is very frustrating when your trying to trouble shoot photo lab equipment over the phone so you don't need to drive into work on your day off.

the calender is a little bit flunky and the majority of the phone i found to be less than user friendly. along with options you couldn't turn off, like the text message sent confirmation that pops up 5-10 seconds after you send a message, its a minor annoyance to me personally as well as friends who use the dash, the only way i have found to rid this is hacking the phone and i'm not willing to do this.

i will give the phone this, it is wonderful for texting, the t9 is wonderful once you get used to it, but its nothing to sway one to buy this phone over another.

my largest complaint about this phone is it's short lifespan apparently. my phone was babied, never dropped, and yet the screen is now totally black, or if anything is displayed, it's colored pixcels or static like a broken tv. pretty awesome for only 6 months old, even more so that i was told that the t-mobile insurance doesn't cover this, and it wont be a free replacement because its not under a warranty after only 6 months. awesome.
