• Any other phone would be better
  I've had this phone for less than a year and I can say that, without a doubt, this is the least user-friendly and least durable phone I have ever owned. The Windows OS is impossible to manage effectively and the build of the phone itself cannot withstand even minor drops from the pocket.
  I would never recommend this phone to anyone.

• Too many bugs
  The Samsung Blackjack is a great example of how, the more complicated the phone, the more prone it is to bugs. I am on my second warranty replacement phone and am still having problems.

• Great first smartphone
  I picked this for a couple of reasons:
  1) reasonable price (with contract extension)
  2) Napster support
  3) QWERTY keypad
  Pretty low demands, i know. but this has exceeded my expectations. Despite a rather long startup, the phone functions well jumping between programs once it starts up. Moving media between the phone and computer is a breeze (windows mobile and a Windows PC, pretty good fit). I haven't delved too far into the Outlook integration/syncing, since I don't use outlook. more info

• I love this phone, but has a couple key flaw.
  As a Windows Mobile phone, I love everything about it. So whatever you think a Windows Mobile phone should do, this one does (with the exceptions below).
  Notable pluses:
  - Excellent keyboard
  - Excellent cell reception
  - Good battery life
  Notable minuses:
  - Not enough CPU power to be a viable media device. Audio actually slowed down when I played and audio file and did anything else. Forget playing video (even formatted for this small screen).
  - GPS takes FOREVER to... more info
