I'm on my 4th phone now with them and they've really bent over backwards to help me with any of my accounts.I like the total control of the the accounts via the web I don't even have to call and have always been paperless. I had no idea it has speaker phone too so plus there. I have the red one just ordered when they went up on line at the 49 price as well: I'm more than thrilled to find out all the features with this upgrade and my friends say my pix look great sent to them on other carriers no problems. Just can't get over how thin this phone is. I'm very happy w/ the price and knowing I have a 1 year free wnty replacement or if I lose it only 7.99 to replace it during that year. I know these things. I've owned portables since 1990's and had a NECP901 that was my fav now I have a new candy bar fave. anyhue: I am partial.with a slight addiction to anything cellular.
The phone itself is thin, light and comfortable to use. The phone rep told me that the Super Slice is pretty well known for crashing and they haven't bothered fixing the problem. They comped a free phone(another slice) and I had less problems with it. I had this problem then entire life of my phone but otherwise it worked well enough. I recently sent my slice through the washer so I'm looking at replacing it with the Wildcard. I bought it for mobile IM and email more than anything and it worked great. However, as soon as I got it out of the packaging and turned it on, it froze and I had to restart. VM wouldn't refund my money for the content because they said there was no proof it had been on my phone and I eventually had to start yelling after the 20th+ phone call to get anywhere.
However, all of those lock up and freezes eventually caused my phone to crash and lose not only my stored date and information, but all of my paid for content like ringtones, games and wallpaper. When I called Virgin Mobile about it, I was bounced around for about a month, told they would refund and replace my phone and then told I wasn't getting anything except the exact same phone. All in all, the phone worked great when it worked, Virgin Mobile is terrible at support and service, but for the money I guess it isn't too bad. I just hope it works better.
Phone service plan is very inexpensive.Yes, this phone does have limitations, but you have to consider that you're only spending $50. This is my first phone purchase, ever. I wanted a simple, easy to use phone, and the Super Slice has been great. Basic features including voice memos (missing from the iPhone).4. That's cheaper than other phones that require a 2-year contract. 1.
However, the Super Slice has been great. Every other phone that I had for the last 15 years has been provided by my employer. I've had my share of Blackberries and other phones with various problems described in other reviews (phone locks up, poor reception, limited battery life). Phone reception and voice quality have been great.2. Very small and light - easy to carry in your pocket.3. Most importantly, Virgin Mobile offers an unlimited voice plan for $79 per month.
Why do people sign 2-year contracts for more money than it costs without a contract.
This is an awsome phone. It has a camera, the service is cheap (I pay 20 buck every three monthes for 200 minutes, I don't talk much). I love everything about this phone, cheap service, games, quick recharging, long battery life, cool ring tones, and it's only 60 bucks (at target). This phone is a very good phone and I highly suggest it for someody who is shoping for a phone.The only complaint I have about this phone is that every once in a while the battery comes loose and I have to take it out and stick it back in.By the way, I am not angry mom, that's my mom, don't ask me why she chose that name, I don't know.
Bought this phone as an upgrade to my old one. The only way to get it to stop is to take out the battery. I have had it for three days and it just started vibrating and now wont stop. I turned off the phone and it vibrates. I have been reading bad reviews about technical issues with this phone. I did call Virgin Mobile and they are replacing it with a new phone (getting the Cyclops instead) that I will recieve in 2 business days.
