Electronics / Cellular Phones / Virgin Mobile SwitchBack Cell Phone

I have recently purchased the Virgin Mobile prepaid cell phone Switch Back. This phone flips open to reveal a keyboard, QWERTY type that allows for quick text typing. The outside of the phone features a smaller color screen with the numeric pad, while the inside features a larger color screen that has the keyboard. The games, screen savers, wallpapers and extra stuff are all available off of the Virgin Mobile website. The phone also has a simple use camera that takes lower-resolution pictures to send to friends and family. Overall, this phone is great for the average user that enjoys texting, however my only complaint is the sound quality when you are receiving or placing a call. I felt that the quality was not that great and hard to hear in a crowd.

  • Keyboards rule and I think I'll go for the prepaid next time. Plans are annoying.
