Sidekick ID: Fuglier Than We Thought

Sidekick ID and it was pretty fugly to begin with, but we didn’t expect it to be this bad. Leaked on the T-Mo Website is a rebate form with some official photos of the ID and it makes me want to purge. There’s a $50 rebate and a supposed April 18 launch.

Well. I *was* going to do a page on JetCityOrange.com about the new Sidekick given that I have pages on the ‘kick II and ‘kick 3. But THIS!?!?

 
Jon Jon

i heard that the colors are changeable. i would actually buy.

 
Michael

I think its awesome. I would totally buy this and it seems from what I’ve read thats its more practical than SK3. It looks kinda rubbery like its not gonna scratch as much and you can change the colors whenver. plus its cheap… so i can keep both.. my SK3 and this one.

 
joe

I think its preety ugly and I’m gonna keep my sd3. There’s no way that anyone is gonna see me with a skid.

 
Evan

It dosent seem that bad.

But i dont want people to be like…

“Ew, that kids has a sidekick ID!”

 
Mikee

If you ask me i don’t think it’s bad if they have like a black or grey one i’d buy. and plus it took out all the crapy features out from the sk3 and kept the actually usable features besides the mp3. If you want a top of the line phone why not go for a pocket pc then. i don’t care what they think it’s all about personal point of view. why would you trip over what other people think.

 
Shiranami

Uhm, yeah, my SK3 is better . . .

I don’t think I would want the SKID.

 
OSCAR

i think it looks like its made from broken sidekick 2’s and 3’s they just conloined all the parts until it looked good which by the way its fugly as hell i would never buy that except for a gift to that unwanted relative

 
suz~

Can you say ugly ID wow it needs a mug shot make over

 
T!n@

i luv it i would buy it but only in pink lol

 
nokia8800

I really think it looks nice; but i like the nokia8800

 
Meridith Manula

i just got my sk3 and there is no way i would carry this! i think i might buy it for my kids when i have kids in like 10 years but yeah that would be there first phone.

 
Anonymous

i will probably buy this for my kids when theyre are 8 or something. i have had a sidekick 1, 2, and a 3. this will probably be a good start for my kids. But i have a 3 now and there is no way i would carry this around. FUCKIN UGLY MUG

WTF THIS THING IS SOOO FUGLY!!! I WOULD NEVER BUY A PIECE OF CRAP LIKE THAT!!! NOW THERES GONNNA BE A BUNCH OF POOR PEOPLE RUNNING AROUND WITH A SIDEKICK!! AHHHHHHH

 
Aaron Thomas

I just got off of the phone with danger and the tech actually confirmed it does have a camera and mp3 but no web access…..altough that kinda bothers me due to the fact the screen shot shows aim, msn, and yahoo, When all of those use the web???……she did also confirm the “around $100″ thing…..oh yeah and the colors are interchangeable and they will be available at release from t-mobile….(she made an odd comment about you can send tmobile pictures and they will convert them into themes for your phone as well????)

Hahahh I love this
“There’s no way anyone will ever see me with a skid!” I dno y but that made me chuckle.

Yah I love me sk3… I don’t get y the skid is so wack looking.

O well

amber

i think its really cute.. and some ppl dont want the sk3 jus want to use it for messengers.. but if it doesnt come with internet access then it can kiss myass.

 
mat

The speaker looks like a chesse grater

 
rachel

well, i think i might get one since i don’t plan on using my sidekick as a phone, and i dont need the camera and mp3 player because my razr has both of those.

 
UR MOM

Are you kidding me? It looks good. You guys are probley just really pissed off because you spent 300 dollers on a SK3 and now they have a SKid….yea,great way to show support.!.!.!

 
Allison

I think if it is starting at from $100 to $150, it would probley be really crappy. It would probley be real good for your child or something. i would stick to the Sidekick 3 :)

 
Tiffany

yeah this is really cute. the reason why it isnt as much as the sidekick3 is because it doesnt have all of the same features… so its not cheep ?? wats wrong with it ? i have a camera and an iPod so i dont need to spend like $300 on the sidekick3 if im not gonna use all of the features … so this phone will do fine..

 
Kathleen

Theres just something about this design i just dont want. It probley doesnt have to much of quality. But the screen looks really nice and so do the keys. And It doesnt have WEB ACCESS!!! That just takes the fun out of a damn phone. Cause we all probley go on the web. I think it would might as well be a top of the line barbie phone where u press a button and barbie speaks to you.

 
Chrisso

They should call it the “Frankenstein” instead of the SKID…Personally it looks like a bunch of left over sidekick parts slapped together to create dismorphic peace of crap…I guess this is T-Mobiles way of recycling their garbage…Way to go! Hey if not Frankenstein, then SKID MARK! Cuz it looks like a lil piece of Sh*t anyways.. haha I think i’ll stick with my SK3 and laugh at those who have the SKID. T-Mobile- great marketing plan…i think you’ll have a great chance and marketing this phone to people who ride the short bus, cuz their the only ones stupid enough to buy it…

 
amanda

if its thinner. then it would be pretty cool. i mean the camera sucks anyway. and its cheep so not bad at all =]

 
SHANIQUA

HEYYYYy……just wanna give a quick shout out to all my girlfrienddssss!!!

PEACE!

 
EMMA

its pretty ugly because of all the stupid bright colors.. maybe make it have a much better camra..video.. and more freaters.
i love all my pimps and hoes..!!!!!!!!

Anthony

EWW WTF is this like the ghetto version ….. EWWWWWWWW i`d rather buy a fuxin used sidekick 2 on ebay fo 150.oo then this …. PS. I have the D-Wade Thats a real sidekick

 
clayton

i dont see the point in sidekicks. the special plans for texting and internet? screw that.

 
ann

This phone looks like a p.o.s.! It reallt does look like sidekick 2s pieced together. I still have a 2 and I wouldn’t use a skid if someone gave it to me. Aren’t phones supposed to upgrade rather than downgrade? This phone was pointless to make. Whoever made the design drank yager bombs all night and drew this plan with a crayon. Get it together danger or I might just go to blackberry!

 
Ann

yeah this is just gross. arent company’s supposed to upgrade their products rather than downgrade? for real these look like spare parts. no iternet, no camera. whats the freakin point? i sitll have a sidekick2 and i would not use this crap if someone gave it too me. its just embarassing to look at. whoever mapped this one out went home that night and drank jager then drew his plans with a crayon on a pizza box. danger you guys need to get it together or i might just switch to blackberry.

 
Ann

yeah sidekicks back button erases all my text so i said it again. this phone sucks

 
lisa

I have a blackberry pearl and I can’t put it down

 
Anonymous

i’d actually use this. my friend has the SK3 and she’s “bored” with it, because she’s a brat. but i think i like this because i don’t use the camera on my RAZR as it is now, and i have an iPod, so why buy another one. it’s a basic phone, web-browser, and IM. i like it in all white with black. i’m buying it.

 
kayla

LOL you guys are idiots.
i have a SK3 and only paid $150 for it because my mom has been with tmobile for like 8 years, so she gets discounts on everything. and we had an old phone number for tmobile so i didn’t have to pay an activation fee.
so i’m not “mad that i paid too much for my 3″ cuz i paid just as much as this stupid shit is going to cost. it’s still ugly and it’s always going to be ugly.
everyone knows how poor quality the 3 is, so what do you assholes think this will be? considering the pieces are interchangable, i bet they’re going to randomly pop off all the time. have fun!

blondebiotch and that other gurrl, and all u haterz can shove it. bcuz this phone is tight n u know it. juss like the dude said b4, u guys with the sk2’s and 3’s juss r mad bcuz u paid all that money for it. and bcuz the sk id’s r so much cheaper. blonde biotch u r such a fukkin hater and u r sooo not gansta. whit folk can’t b gansta. not 2 b rascist.., but i kno u whit, only whit folk say ‘ganster’ so u can’t be a >gansta

keith, from da 810 (anonymous abov)

prolly juss a poser from a suburb. as fa u kayla… u shuldnt have even brought up ur mom working for t-mobile… its pretty fuckkin sad. so y didn u juss ask ur mom for a blk berry or sum shytt GOSH, if u didn like the sk3 soo much. and fa all yall haterz who don’t like sk id, juss say u don’t, don’t diss the ppl who don’t have all that cash in tha bank, u prolly don’t either fukkerz. if all they can afford is a sk id than so b it, thatz their bussiness. so don’t come on this forum tlkin all tht bullshyyt, if u don’t like it click out of the browser window so u cant c it, then GO THE FUCKK on wit ur wanna b wigger ass life… dayummn.

But Yahh, n e wayz I think alll the sidekicks are nyce to have it’s like a mini laptop, go on wit yo bad self danger+t-mobile =) For all the potential buyerz , it’s a nyce lil investment, fa cheap. so if u buy it and sum2 calls u cheap don’t bout they dumb azzez, IT IS JUSS A PHONE, it’ shouldnt tell whether you are rich or poor.

 
true

I have an sk3 but I’m actually thinking about trading it in for the skiD. it looks clean yo… they say the browser is faster than the sk3 and if its any smaller that’s just extra incentive. I mean I love my sk3 but the mothafuckas pretty bulky.

 
evil

yeah i would have to say that i do think this phone is awesome.
i like the fact that you can change so many parts of it to whatever color you want.
when the sk3 came out i was like OOooOo bc i was rocking an sk2…but after playing with a friend’s sk3 i was so disappointed! and thought..damn well wait for the sk4 then but sadly my sk2 passed away.
i tried the treo680 and that was a bust.
i tried the lgwhite chocolate and well that’s all fine and dandy but thank GOD that tmobile came with this. its cheap. it has what i need. i actually didn’t like the extra features of the sk3. i think the only thing i’ll probably really really miss on the skID is the camera. but eh that’s me wishing that the sk2 was so interchangable in its appearance. plus i already have my ipod and a digicam so i won’t miss it that much. the sk3 kinda reminds me of the PSP..and i must say unless PSP became a phone too then i wouldn’t want to lug around this PSP looking wanna be without it having some kind of gaming feature that the sk3 DID not have.
i think i’ll be gettin an skID…use it. abuse it. and hope that the sk4’s are even fucking better.
boo on the sk3

 
side kick456789

the skid is the fucking shit.
i have had the 1, 2, and now have the 3.
i will keep my sidekick3 AND get the skid.

side kick456789

and it’s not fugly, but however i am raged at the price.
like someone way up there said, i don’t want all these poor people fucking running around with a side kick.
NOT COOL. thanks alot danger.

 
chris

it comes with aim,msn,yahoo,AND IT DOES HAVE WEB BROWSING!! for all the people that said it doesnt what more can u want the mp3 and camera sucked to begin with

 
Anonymous

Uh, so I had the sk3 and I had a sk2 and I got rid of my sk3 because it kept breaking on me, and I switched over to a dash. Biiiiiig mistake, I forgot how convienent and user friendly the sidekick’s were. I don’t see the big deal about the skiD, just because it’s cheaper doesn’t mean it sucks, but then again, how can any of us know when none of us have tried it (well, some of us may have, but you get the point.) Honestly, the mp3 player and the camera sucked big time, and all of us who were waiting so patiently for that sk3 can honestly say it was just a tad bit disappointing (such as the screen not being that much better, the mp3 player sucking, the camera still blowing big and no video play) but hey, we can’t have everything. Honestly, I’d get this just because I can change out the plates on it, but the body is a bit awkward looking and I don’t quite get what’s going on with the grey designs on the screen? Quite confusing, I’d say. Overall it’s not as ugly as people keep saying, but it’s no sk3, no why? Cause it literally isn’t.

Steven

I will be there to get the skiD as soon as it comes out i think it will be cool so i dont get why you would need snything liken bluetoooth i have a $700 bluetooth and i hate it and i have a $350 iPod that holds more photos and video’s then the sidekick could ever dream of holding and it is about the texting and instast messaging not all this other crap!

 
kimmy

i LOVE THE SIDEKICK ID I AM DEF GANA GET IT I LOVE THE PINK ONE

 
Carla

i think sidekick 3 is better. this one looks like a toy. :S

 
side kick456789

SHUT THE FUCK up BITCHES!

 
karen

the fact that it comes in different colors and its considerably cheaper is nice, but… no camera is pissing me off. i was planning on getting an iPod, so the no mp3 isnt that bad but no camera… ouch. if its $150, maybe the extra $50 for the sk3 would be a better bang for your buck…. i mean, the sk3 looks better too.

 
karen

and btw - blondebiotch shut the fuckin fuck up, because you dont know what you’re talking about
and im not even gonna bother explaining this to you, because anyone calling paris hilton beautiful is just about as beautiful as she is: nada zip.
shes a shame to the human race, as are you.
you, just wasted precious website space. not to mention more to load for people with dial up or slow computers, and people who are probably interested in the skid.
and btw. i have a friend amanda whos her heat, hot water, electricity and cable got turned off and shes at her grandmas. and she has a sk3. shes iming me from it right now, skankwhore.
and for your info she has gorgeous dark brown hair.
why dont you go be your whorey self where it’s appropriate like in a brothel where you can work your pretty little mouth?

 
Jazmin

ummmm

all you people just hate the skid because you have a sk3 and your paid 300 bucks for it and the skid is only 100… aww dont be sad because you got ripped off…. =]

 
karen

actually, most of the people here probably got their sk3s for around $200, because people who have been using t-mobile for a long time got an upgrade.

 
Im cool

i think they are cool i would get one

 
me

just 2 use as a secondary phone 4 texting n aim…. i think its perfect… who cares abt the price n how it is compared 2 the sk 2 n 3… as long as it gets the job done…

 
me... again

ppl.. stop hatin on each other…. it makes no sence… y r u wasting ur time… neway…. do u n ill do me….

 
Lozza

I think its nice, its cute and colourful, and i have a SK3 and i love it but i mean this skid is kinda cool if you only want basics, it isnt really downgrading its being realistic to those people who LIKE the design but dont want all the added benefits like the net etc. Truthfully if i want just a basic phone i’d def. buy it.

 
Easton Casteel

YEAH I DON’T LIKE IT AT ALLL!!! It’s like the sidekick gone re-tarted! i swear you couldn’t catch me with one ill keep my (Sidekick3) It has a camera and is overall way better looking AND the screen is smaller on the (sidekick id)

 
JESSICA

do u noe if i can use it in mexico too?

sidekick iD
cause i like this thingy alot and like i go constanly to mexico and i stay days in there so i need da cellphone to be available in that 2 country’s(usa and mexico) plzz i need an answer …………!

 
me Bitches

so, i had a sk3 and i sold it….big mistake… i miss it :(….so i am going to buy another sidekick of some sort..i was thinking about etting the skid and i would much rather go and get another sk3. i do like the white keyboard though..but that is about all i like on this phone….lol..i guess i need a d-wade edition…lmao

 
Sam

I think trimming all the fat from the SK3 was a smart idea. I don’t want some CRAPPY camera or an MP3 player that I can’t even hook up to my car. Besides, having all those extra programs is probably what causes the 3 to freeze up so much. Getting rid of all that will make it run faster, and smoother.

BTW Mercedes and BlondeBiotch, Being in a ‘blonde mafia’ is not something I would be proud of…stupid hoes shouldn’t carry guns, and shouldn’t re-produce, but its probably to late, you both probably already had babies at the age of 13….OH, wait, THAT’S what the ‘blonde mafia’ is… a car pool group!

(oh, and just because your daddies rich, and you have a trust fund does NOT make YOU rich…it makes you a leach, I made my own money, you should try too)

(all though i did read a blog about the “sidekick 4″ so im kinda sad that they arnt comeing out with that 1 yet owell) =p

 
RyAn

ok yea my first comment was nice but i have 1 more thing to say all of you saying “o god i dont want the poor people to have sidekicks blah blah” ur jerks just cuz some 1 dosent have as much money as u dont dosent make u better and if u think it dose that makes u sad and fyi lots of non billion doller bitchs have sidekicks they just saved there money and worked for it so you know w.e and 100 dollers still isnt totaly cheep so get off ur high horse and stop being total snoby cunts kk thank u

 
btk

evil

im so jealous btk!
i can’t wiat for it to come out tomorrow
does anyone know about the plates are being sold only by tmobile and if they are comign in packs or singulars?
packs suck bc you never want all of it..but making a custom pack to sell is better!
i want one soo bad..but im still locked in a contract from oct2006..but BLAH who cares i want one…
and the person who said something about poor people having it…MAN get over your ignorant ass. who cares if you are poor or rich. if you wnat one get one if you don’t then don’t. stop drinking all that hateraide you ignorant bitch. gah!

You guys are ridiculous.

I just bought the iD last night and I’m getting it shipped to my house as we speak.

Currently they only have black, white, glow-in-the-dark, and gray changeable plates.
But they’re going to come out with brighter colors soon.

Just thought I would let you all know. =]

I think the sidekick iD is a great idea. The sidekick with its amazing unlimited plan is popular among the Deaf and HoH population and to be charged so much for the extra features that probably wont be used(mp3/bluetooth) was probably not too popular. Although im sure sales were still great I think the skiD, despite losing the sometimes convenient camera, will be a great alternative.
I will admit while the design isn’t my favorite I think that might be because it was rushed out once they realized the manufacturers realized they had some unecesarry stuff in the sk3.
Great concept and the price is definitly alot less scary than the sk3

9 out of 10

if someone has this phone already could you email me (jetblack211@yahoo.com) about how you like it.
i’ve been wanting to get a sidekick but the 3 is to frickin expensive.
so any input would be awesome
thanks!

I just got a Sidekick ID and had a Sidekick 3 before it. I definitely like the ID better. I already had a dig cam and the 3’s was shitty to begin with. I also have an iPod so no need for the MP3 player either. Plus, you can change the faceplates and bumpers which is nice. The keyboard is much better than the 3’s also. And contrary to what some people are saying there IS internet on it. If I were you and stuck with a 3, I’d sell it on eBay, buy an ID and I bet you would even have enough to get a faceplate set and then a few bucks to spare.
Bottom line… ID is much better than the 3.

Hm. I just got the SKiD yesterday ‘cuz I lost my SK3, but I was still stuck in my 1 year contract &wasn’t tryna’ pay full price for another SK3. The iD isn’t that bad, I’ll admit. Of course, after having a SK3, it mosdef doesn’t compare. Then again, I never used the camera since 1. the quality sucked 2. I have a camera &3. my other cell phone has a camera. As for the bluetooth - never used that anyway &I used my MP3 player probably only the first couple weeks after I got my SK3. Soo, in my opinion, the iD is pretty cool. It’s a lil smaller and lighter. &I don’t worry ’bout droppin’ it &shit as much as I did ’bout my SK3 since it’s more durable. Plus, I only used my SK for AIM anyway.

Other than that, for those that have the iD, has anyone been able to remove the plastic piece covering the supposed USB port? I’ve heard from a number of sources that there is a USB port yet it isn’t mentioned anywhere in the manual? I’ve attempted to remove the plastic but it’s actually pretty hard to sooo iono if these sources were wrong or what?

hey question:
I asked a guy at the kiosk for tmobile if you could buy the skID outright without a contract and he said no…wtf?
is that true!??!?
i hope to goodness no.
im stuck in a contract that just started back in oct.2006 so yeah i would like to know of you can just buy the sucker and add on the sk plan onto old contract. that would be freaking awesome

 
brittany

Yo, I personally think the skID kix so much ass, nd all yall that have a sk3 that’s pretty kool 2 that just means we all got good taste n fones, even tho the skID has no cam or mp3 player but watever. we live n the electronic age nd I think havin more gadgets is cooler neway like havin an ipod dig cam nd fone is fuckin awesome even tho its a lil much 2 carry but yea. ne1 that disagrees with how much the skID rox yall can just blow major ass cuz I luv my ID I got it the first day it came out so thnx rock on!

I actually think it looks really nice. I could understand it takes a while to like the design, but I think it looks even better than SK3. I would totally get this.

 
Jonathan

btw, it does infact have web browsing. Atleast the T-mobile version does. http://www.t-mobile.com/shop/phones/Detail.aspx?device=ab49893d-e81e-4065-ae87-ee2554ab2688

I am definitely considering buying the skid. I have an ipod, so idc about the mp3. I have a digital camera, so idc about the camera.. phones have low quality photos anyway.

I think its better looking then the sidekick3… I like the changeable colors. Usually I am always texting and on instant messaging, so this phone would be perfect for me. I don’t need all the extra features the sidekick3 has anyway.

 
Ash

It should have web browsing… I watched a video on cnet and the web browsing came up as she was scrolling the menu.
