Thanks for the thorough review! I was lucky to preorder @$199 and am aware of the limitations that this smartphone has. I'm convinced I have made the right choice for me.

Hey edchuy!

Thanks! That's good to know! $199 is a great price, let us know what you think of the phone!

nice review! I'm looking for the best smartphone deal and my budget is $250, would you recommend me to buy this phone? I'm on t-mobile

 

[PeterGriffin]

also, I read on http://www.reddit.com/r/idol3 that this phone comes with JBL headphones. did you try those? I'd like to know if these live up to it's expectations

 

[CherlynnLow]

hey PeterGriffin! this is definitely worth it, but like I said, it depends on what you want to use it for. If you're a heavy multi-tasker you might need to reconsider, although for your price range this is probably the best you'd get.

I didn't try the JBL headphones -- the speakers were pretty great! But let me try them on and I'll get back to you here. You can also tweet me @CherlynnLow to check in if I haven't responded =)

I'll let you know about it once I have tried it on my phone, when I get it. It probably should. It's not something that manufacturers' mentions in the spec sheet unlike the microSD, but is also a handy as a way to expand storage as well if enabled!
