“A good Choice”

I really like this phone. The one I have now is a replacement due to the key pad not lighting on the first one. Overall this has been a good phone. Reception has been very good and it shows a strong signal even in places that normally don't. The only gripe I have is battery life, especially when I get out of my home network.
Pros:
i like the flip!
Cons:
short battery life
