A friend of mine, her daughter paid just under $400 for an android / smart phone that she bought from MetroPCS!!
The phone is quite large and has features galore - every gadget know to mankind, which is kind of a good thing!
She can take pics and afterwards, make them smaller or larger with the touch screen feature. The phone also has a GPS navigation feature. Every gadget known to mankind!!!!!
Except for one thing; All of those high-tech features, bells & whistles eat up the phone's memory, which in turn, eats up astronomicall amounts of battery power!! Plus, she's on the phone practically all day, doing something with it, which forces her to have to recharge the battery about every 4-1/2 hours!!!
That right there, is what turned me away from ever wanting to get one of those types of phones!!! Went through that crap already, been there, done that, don't like it!!!!
