i’m looking into buying a Slide, but looking at all of these comments and seeing that it restarts itself and loses your data makes me curious as to if i should buy it. it has been two years since those posts though so hopefully the Slide has been updated? Please reply back!

Yeah, this phone totally suck’s ass! Not even worth getting. I have been having this phone for a little over a year and I hate it. I am trying too come up with the money too get the Tmobile Samsung Behold. I have heard it’s a good phone. It’s true of course, that the Sidekick Slide, is pretty cool, and sweet “LOOKING” But when you actually use the phone it sucks. I bought this phone for $99 at walmart, and the starting fee, for the plan was over $100! So I bought this phone all together for $215. And im totally ashamed I got it. There’s lots of problems. You cannot put a back ground of like your puppy, or your friends, you can only put the backgrounds that they have for you which is only like 4, and they are not even cool! They phone every once in a while freezes up, then just turns off by it’s self, then I have too turn it on, and all my contacts, pictures, texts, everything is DELETED!!! Trust me it pisses you off, when you have too type 200 contacts back in your phone, it seems like every two weeks! It only hold 100 text’s so once your inbox is all filled up, you can’t do anything til they are deleted. You can only save like 14 top pictures in your phone that you have taken. The camera quality sucks. The volume button is on the bottom right side of the phone, so it’s soo easy for the phone too turn up by its self, by just putting it back in your purse or pocket, there’s been a few times in class my phone goes off because I had a text message, and I had it turn down, but when I put it in my purse it turned up, and I got my phone tooken away. You can’t use ringtones that you have recorded, or someone has sent you, you can only use the ones they have in your phone already, or the gay ones you want too buy off the internet using the phone. You can’t record voice for no more than 20 seconds. And you cant save the voice recording either. The buttons are way too small. When you have the phone turned up, you hear all the noises the phone makes and it gets annoying, because every SINGLE button on the phone makes a different annoying noise! If I take out the battery, or my phone drops and the battery pops out, everything in my phones hard drive is deleted. You cannot get MP3’s on your phone without this memory card, you have to buy it doesn’t come with the phone. Everytime I turn my phone off, and turn it back on, this thing pops up and says “Please wait, while we activate your phone.” And my phone has been activated when I got it, its been saying that for over a year now. So too get off that screen you have too hit, the top left corner button, and “L” at the same time. Also you can’t record a video, suckss total asss. After a while the sidekick slide, starts too get kinda loose, like the part you slide up, starts to get wobblee, like where it’s getting loose.

I seriously dispise this phone, and im very dissapointed, I always wanted a sidekick when I was younger, then I got one and I wish I didnt! I should have gotten the Sony ericson slider, way better phone, my friend has one and it works great.

Im just saying DONT GET IT, waste of money!!!!!!

I took the sidekick slide back to T-Mobile after paying FULL RETAIL price, and got no satisfaction or help in regards to the issues that this phone was presenting, ( Blue Springs, Mo. store) I does shut off, then when it turns back on, it can never connect to a network, and can only make emergency calls. It’s ben USELESS! They offered no refund, exchange, discount on another phone, NOTHING> After 7-8 years and thousands of dollars with this company T-Mobile, I’m going Verison, and suggest you do the same.

Im currently using my sidekick slide online.. Im really upset with the quality. I’ve had for a year and one month. It was fine at first and now its beginning 2 act up. It tells me I need a sim when the sim is in there. Im really disappointed.. It restarts itself. Just recently it happend 2 my sister. She went over 2 the tmobile store and they told her she had 2 call 2 get them replaced. Wat can a slide get replaced with? Im tired of this phone!!! I need some closure..

Ok, i’ve had this phone since christmas. it’s an alright phone for people with small hands. if you have big fingers, i wouldnt recomend it, it will be very hard to text. But, if you have small fingers like me, its very easy. The battery life sucks, and I text alot, and I have to charge it once or twice a day AFTER charging it the whole night. The camera is OK, it’s alooot better if there’s a lot of light. I’ve got service in South Carolina and Florida. I dont think Tmobile sells it anymore, so it would be very hard to find one. I love instant messaging on this phone, and I have the app. for myspace, which I like also. Call quality is very good also. I’ve only had mine shut off once and I lost all my info.. but ive dropped it down stairs and on the ground many times and it’s still working fine. It doesn’t record videos, and the picture messaging doesnt work for me, but the email is great. I ordered the Samsung Gravity today, and I can’t wait to get it.
I hope this helps anyone :)
