It was good for its time

Phone owned for more than a year

I really liked it as a phone but towards the end of using it, after updating it, the phone began to crash a lot and the keyboard would type random letters. Also, it would never let me update to gingerbread so I was stuck with froyo.

It's the best phone i have ever had, I loved it.
Only thing i didn't like is it's poor graphics performance, It is powered by Adreno 200.

Otherwise it's a good multitasking capability device, for It's 1Ghz processor, it gave really performed well.

If you need a smartphone and a tablet at the same time but with budget that only allow you buy 1 device. Dell Streak 5 is the best choice!!!! Although it have a big screen, it can still enter my pocket easily! :)

I still cannot find an phone that can totally replace Dell Streak 5.
