I bought this phone as a gift for my husband almost a year ago and I have to say I have never been so upset at a gift in my life... :-( My husband is always on the phone for work, so I decided the use it would get justified the price....I am giving this phone 1 star simply because it has never performed its number one "phone duty" -- ie a device which transmits and receives sound...No one could ever hear my husband on this phone....it has caused so much unnecessary stress. My husband otherwise loved everything else the phone could do, however the fact that he had to carry around a second phone always to call someone back, was...well, I think you understand... It does however takes surprisingly wonderful pictures, but we have cameras, we didn't pay all this money for another one... Unfortunately, we live overseas so there was no way to return it once I brought it back with me... "Luckily" almost a year later, the screen has broken, so we are now forced to buy another phone...unfortunately as I am searching now, I am very skeptical to spend so much money on another HTC...
