Froze, Horrible Phone, Jams
by 32britt on July 12, 2010
Pros: Touchscreen handy, easy to use
Cons: Froze for hours and during that time i couldn't do anything such as turning it off, battery cover jammed so I couldn't take the battery out to fix it, short battery (maybe 8 hours) which is short for me, lagging touch screen
Summary: Horrible phone, Bad quality everything, don't buy

Almost as glitchy as the original rumor touch.
by InfernoPhil on April 30, 2010
Pros: Cool looking phone
Good camera
Email syncs decently with outlook and gmailCons: Lots of glitches: when I turned on the phone I would get pop ups about notifications that hadn't happened yet
Red light would blink for hours despite not having any unread messages
Unusable web browser
Poor facebook app
Can't open email attachmentsSummary: I'm coming from a fried Moto Q9C. I guess I was expecting more of a business phone, but the Rumor Touch did not deliver. My wife had the original ...
Summary: I'm coming from a fried Moto Q9C. I guess I was expecting more of a business phone, but the Rumor Touch did not deliver. My wife had the original Rumor for a few days but it had similar issues only worse.
Eh.... I mean Almost as glitchy as the original Rumor.
I wouldn't recommend this phone to anyone who wants to use the web or facebook. The emailing capabilities are pretty good, but it's not worth the quirks.
Not sure what I'll be trying next, but LG is not an option.
