    Looks like a nice phone for the price. Probably not a phone you buy if you care about camera (I mostly don't). The only spec that gives me pause is the display-- pretty low quality for a 6.1" screen. Would work better with a smaller screen. Nice bargain.

    That seems almost too good to be true.

    My hesitation would be whether there would be a company to back that warranty in 4 years. Smartphones aren't exactly a forgiving business.

    Kind of like all companies who offer a Lifetime Warranty on their products. That assumes your, the product's and the company's Lifetimes all coincide. :vbrolleyes: Those warranties do sound fabulous, though, until you actually think about it.

    I'd be 100% onboard if this phone had a physical keyboard :(

    I miss my Keyone, but my carrier doesn't fully work with it.

    QF and Lelisa are right of course; but even so, it's less the lifetime warranty than the features and price that really grab me. A 'lifetime' warranty on a cellphone is kind of dumb, even if the company sticks around, because I'm not sure that people want to use the same cellphone for 10 years or more.
