Is it good for texting?

I just flip the magnet to the back and fold the cover back when texting and it's fine. I love it and it's super convenient to keep my ID and one or two debit/credit cards.

Yes. It is a true "smart phone" and AFAIK no provider will connect it without a full data package. For a simple QWERTY slider for texting, I recommend either the Pantech Ease (GSM) or the LG Extravert (CDMA). Both can be purchased inexpensively and unlocked for use with any secondary market/contract-free carrier.

Yes and no. It only work if u have ur phone set to reading ur text message out loud. But if it's not, it will not. It's great listening to music on it. I hope I answer ur question good enough.

Yes it works great like that. I used it for hands free during my work, since all communication is through text. I could see them and answer with one hand. Great but sweaty in the summer months.

No it's only good for text and talk. I sent mine back because Email didn't work and the sound was horrible. I had to have it on speaker to hear anything.

As long as it has bluetooth it will connect and it is best when used with android operating system. But the use is very limited. If only using it to see who is calling or who texted then it is great otherwise very limited with what can be done.

It works well. It is better for text but acceptable for photos. It is very easy to use.

Yes you can. I send all my texts that way, its a lot easier then doing it from your phone it self. and you will find with a lot of use you won't be able to live with out this little keyboard. it is a life saber for me as a blind user.

No. It's a paperweight or a toy for very young kids to pretend they're texting. There is no more support or service for this device.

Hello...No this is not a smart phone. A good phone for texting with large bold text but not a smart phone.Darrell

No, and I didn't even use mine since I have an iPhone. I thought I would not get used to texting on my screen and I missed my keyboard but I was wrong. It is good if you don't have a touch screen though

no, its very limited insofar as smart abilities. only good for basic use. keyboard for texting is extremely small and difficult to use.

It really depends on your requirements. it is not the most user friendly phone out there... it does save you on data charges, if don't use the Internet, vs a smart phone. I went from a smart phone to this, and have been tempted to throw it in the ocean more than once. on the positive, it does have the keyboard, which makes texting easier than a flip phone. would I buy it again? no. but it may suit someone elses needs perfectly. it does, after all, make and receive calls and texts! :)

It is just a basic phone for calls and texting. You need a smartphone if you want that.

I know it has a slider keyboard, great for texting as I do A LOT for my work, answering emails too! I have AT&T; service and had no problems getting it to work with their service. Just be sure to get the service there in Chilie with the right network-GSM!

Yes, but it is a little awkward, since the clasp gets in the way. It's fine for texting, though.

yes you can .. I have used it both ways but currently use it only for phoning and texting.
