Phone owned for less than 3 months

I've had this phone for almost 2 weeks now and have to say that it's awesome. I ordered it on the Bestbuy website. Even though it's Gingerbread (2.3) instead of the new 'ice cream sandwich' or 'jelly bean', i love how fast the screens cycle. The Anthem has a 1.2 gig dual core processor; pages load much faster then my older phone. Overall, I highly recommend this phone; the screen is super bright and sharp. I can listen to music, play chess online, and read a PDF file all at the same time. And one of the pluses with this phone is that it has a valid 'task killer' app preloaded on it that allows you to delete the annoying apps that service provider likes to add to their phones.

Phone owned for less than a month

This little machine is amazingly fast, the OS is very responsive and fluid, no lags as far as i own it writing is just fine with the classic alphanumeric on screen keyboard and predictive writing, the screen manages sunlight fine, and the goodies and features of android are a huge... advantage of this phone The pros are so many that i really love this phone capable of a lot of things, with a decent reception, a good browser nice hardware....
