This phone is POOOO
Phone owned for more than a year

I hate this phone ,i've had it for about a year and 3 months. The apps are slow, It always says that I'm low on device storage and i only have one app. Sometimes when someone is calling it wont let me answer .. and my mom thinks i do it on purpose. I've had 3 of these terrible phones and now I'm upgrading to a iphone 4s. I am so excited! Also back started coming off like 3 mth. after I got it and then it wouldn't stay on anymore. eventually I lost it and it made my phone look tacky! DONT BUY THIS PHONE !!!! YOU DONT WANT TO SUFFER LIKE ME!!!

HATE THIS PHONE
Phone owned for less than a year

I ABSOLUTELY HATE THIS PHONE! i've had 3 replacements already. Nothing ever works. I have 1 app on the phone, no pictures, no texts, no contacts. ANd yet EVERY DAY it says i have "no device storage" "low on storage space" "apps cannot function properly" and its all a load of JUNK! CUZ THERE IS NOTHING ON THE PHONE! Its almost at factory default, and it wont send or recieve texts. The phone CONSTANTLY shuts off, Then it takes 2+ hours to reload. The contacts are NEVER loaded, I cant make outgoing calls. I cant make outgoing texts unless i know the persons number off hand. When I get calls, the calls are great. But it CONSTANTLY freezes when im getting the call, and the phone will ring and ring and ring and ring but the call will never show on the screen. So i could check my email, and texts, and the call would never show up. It wont send a text until the phone buzz's, or alerts, or receives the text. So if someone texts me twice in a roe, it freezes the phone. I cant reply until the phone finally alerts me. Even though the whole time I could read the texts that were sent. I Love the apps, they run fantastically. But the basic phone functions never work. Im going to get the 4th replacement next week...

Motorola Flipside
Phone owned for less than a month

I love the phone it works for me. The phone could be a little bit bigger which would help for touchscreen keyboard typing. The call quality is great because you can change the way you hear for call quality. The internet is good but could really use the full flash not just flash lite. The camera is good because I can use things like kodak perfect touch to enhance it or use advanced editing to make it look better.The UI speed is astonishing. Even though it has a 720 mhz processor it's likew it has the processor of a Droid X. I am going to give it to you straight the battery life sucks.
