The good: The Samsung Restore is made out of recyclable materials, has a solid slider design, and includes features such as a 2.0-megapixel camera, a music player, a 3.5mm headset jack, and EV-DO Rev. 0.
The bad: The Samsung Restore's camera doesn't take very good pictures and its call quality needs to be improved.
The bottom line: The Samsung Restore is a great eco-friendly option if you want a full-featured multimedia messaging phone on Sprint.

does it always work????
by defgrammy on May 10, 2012
Pros: cheap monthly top up amount
Cons: EVERYTHING! Loss of signal, dropped calls, lousy customer service, phone shuts off on it's own at times. Picture messages do not always go thru but you get deducted for them.
Summary: buyer beware. Those commercials you might have seen promising such AWESOME service are like a fairy tale (nightmare_)

This phone is great with its roomy keyboard.
by ods1234 on June 8, 2011
Pros: Roomy keyboard, Eco-friendliness, good phone coverage, sprint 3G data network, 25$ dollars per month for unlimited data and texting, with 300 minutes, it also has a large screen compared to other quick messaging phones.
Cons: The call quality is really bad!!!!!
Summary: If you call a lot of people really often don't buy this phone. Other wise, the coverage is great and the plans available from virgin mobile are very reasonable.
