  • T-mobil you will lose quite a bit of coverage.... It's tough right now. The only new phones coming out of Verizon are Blackberrys(which I personally don't like) and Droids. (I don't need internet)

  • I have T-mobile and never lose service any way :] the lowest was 1 bar and took it to many states and worked just fine. I have the Gravity T Steel its a nice phone and works great but my boyfriend is giving me is iphone XD he got it jail broken so it can be used for any service :3 But when I went to the t-mobile they recommended to not get the side-kick because its not that great and can be slow >.> my mom has the t-mobile mytouch which also works well :]

  • yeah, i'm a very heavy texter, but we never go out to the mountains or whatever, and i'm always in the city, so i guess coverage is not as important, but i always have to do the family plan. so, my mom might need more coverage than me. -_-<br>verizon is just amazing with coverage and signal, and i love it.<br><br>@ massie block; i know right? verizon always has the suckiest phones [in terms of looks]. that's cause they run a whole different network than tmobile, verizon is cdma but tmoble is gsm. most asian phones [the really cool and pretty ones] can be unlocked for the gsm network, but not cdma. -__-<br>i hate this.<br><br>@ lovefrompaige; yeah, i love verizon! (: but i just don't like their phones, especially the lg's. i have the env touch, and it plain period: sucks. -_-<br><br>@ holleywood; i know the sidekick is slow. i just want the phone for the design and the texting. i don't use the internet, i don't go on aim on my phone, i have my macbook for that. so i just need a phone to call and text, and i love big phones that have qwerty keypads like the sidekick. appreciate your advice though.

    <br><br>I have the env touch too.. it does suck. I can't even count how many times my calls were dropped and how long it takes to send messages sometimes. My screen will go black or white randomly or it ghost dials. :/

    <br>omg! i have that problem too. o.o;<br>it dials by itself, the screen turns randomly black and white, turns off by itself, lost calls, etc.<br>AND, 2 months after i got my FIRST one, the internal screen cracked, and i don't know how it did.<br>then, my second phone [current one] broke a MONTH after i got it, and the whole internal screen turned black. black. can't do anything with the internal screen anymore. -_-
    bluehh.
  • I dont know what id do without a keyboard XD I can't stand the phones that have the numbers and letters all on a key

  • Wow Im not alone! I once had my call dropped over 5 times in 30min. It was quite ridiculous. :| And once I close/open my phone, usually the black and white screens will go away. I will never get this phone again. I'd rather have my env 2 back.

    <br>no you are not.<br>this phone is the worst phone, i've EVER had. period.<br>i'm never getting this phone again, after my contract's done, it's over. i'm probably gonna switch to t-mobile and get the sidekick. \:<br>or stick with verizon and get another phone, NOT one of the lg env's.<br><br>@ holleywood; actually, it's pretty easy. just use t9.

    <br><span style="font-size:85"><span style="color:#0000FF">I used to have that phone and it did intdeed suck. But I just recently got an upgrade about. . . What? Two weeks ago and I love my new phone. Only thing thats a little off is the camera but other than that its awesome lol ^_^</span></span>
  • I have an Alias2 (My mom WANTS me to get a new phone XD I don't get why) and that's verizon.<br>I hate sidekicks, too brake-able and just overall HUGE. In my opinion verizon has better phones.<br>And the sidekick came out like what.. Four years ago? XD<br>Just avoid LG's. Samsungs are way sturdier and htc's are very high-tech, but usually expensive.<br>My mom goes through a phone about every six months. It's because she always wants a newer version since she always gets LG's and they seem to come out with new models faster. Which I think sucks.

    <br>the sidekick is updated every year. -_-;<br>imo, i like the sidekick better BECAUSE it's big. i LOVE big phones like the sidekick. my env touch right now feels too small, i've always liked big phones.<br>right now i can't do much because my contract isn't over yet.<br><br>@ lovefrompaige; so much people complain about the env touch, and apparently it has a huge number of glitches. i so regret my choice now. -_- my old voyager was so much better than this piece of crap.

    <br>I'd stick with Verizon. Even though TMobile has the better phones, Verizon has the best coverage. I get signal everywhere, even in the tunnels in WV.

    <br>It's not really Verizon phones, it's LG who makes the phones. LG phones tend to break easily sometimes. Samsung ones are stronger but are usually more bulky.<br>I don't think Verizon makes the phones, it's just a phone service. They buy phones from LG, Samsung, Htc, Motorolla, and others.
