I have this phone for about 3 months now and i love it, it has good features like multitasking (texting while listening to music,playing games while listening to music ect.) and has a nice menu system, with exceptional battery life, the only complaint i have about this phone is that the screen on the side with the numbers is WAY TO SMALL! it makes texting difficult because you cant even fit one sentence worth of words on the screen at a time, and it make things like looking at your call list take twice as long because of a small screen, in my opinion the size of the buttons should be cut down to make a bigger screen, but overall, i'm satisfied with this phone!

This phone really was kinda. just not my style.
It had good features, and a good attempt at touch panel, but it just didnt take the cake
First off, the screen, as stated before by many people, WAS WAYYYYY TO SMALL! i could barely type my txt messgaes! Its def a great phone if u want something small, and vercitile! Easily hidden, and nice shape. But just, had too many problems. The music player also started to go too!

i was excited when the upstage finally came out but i had to wait a month to get it so i did some research. it sounded ok and when i got it i was so excited that i actually had it. now i can't stand it and i haven't even had it a week. literaly. after 2 days the mp3 player wouldn't start up : so i decided to reset the phone. not a good idea. with this phone when you reset it it resets EVERYTHING, contacts ringtones pics and everything else you had except the music. i tried the player again and it still didn't work. i had to delete everything and put it back on and then it worked. after 5 days it wont connect to the internet and now i have to see what is wrong with it. I'm so going to exchange this phone as soon as possible because it just sucks. the batt doesn't even last half as long as it takes to charge the damn thing. it takes over 5 hours to charge and if you use it to make a 10 min call it already lost 2 of the 3 bars of batt it has. you then have to plug in the extra batt which adds on an extra 2-3 hours of charging to the charging time. the only time i can actually charge this phone is over night and if i dont im screwed. my old phone might not have been the best phone and might have been falling apart but it lasted longer battery wise and didn't take but 30 min to charge fully after a dead batt.
