A640 Review


by bfbchief

I just ported from Nextel to Sprint and got this phone. My Nextel service wasn't the best and I didn't want to get a real expensive phone. When I saw this one was free I said what the heck....I have not been disappointed.

Sure this phone doesn't have all the bells, but for a free phone I find it to be pretty featured packed.

It has Bluetooth, Voice SMS (which I guess is like recording a message and then sending it via text message not sure if this is on all Sprint phones) Ready link (which coming from Nextel I use and don't really find it that much slower) The camera while only VGA I think takes great pictures. The ones I have taken have come out very clear. I do admit I was a little scared to get a phone with an internal antenna, but so far this phone has had pretty good reception. Where I don't get Sprint service it has no problem picking up a roaming signal from Verizon.

PROS:
I love the all black design. Very sleek
Reception
Bluetooth
Readylink
Voice SMS
Strong Vibrate

Cons:
No flash for camera
Speaker for Readylink and Speaker phone isn't super loud (but remember I am coming from Nextel)
No memory card
No EVDO
