Cell Phone Reviews

Hello My name is Mike and I recently bought an i776 about a week and a half ago and I would like to share a review for you that I have just typed up to help people in there desition of getting an i776 phone from boost mobile...

Calling: The calling on this phone works perfect with crystal clear sound, however this phone is not equipt to handle call waiting therefore you have an incoming phonecall while you are on the phone you do not recive notice of that call period, it will be busy or go to answering machine.

Texting: Ok texting my first couple of days was very confusing, My first day I could not send text messages and all my incoming text messages went to my SMS folder rather then my inbox folder, Occationally there is a short delay in sending and reciving a text message and rarley you may have to download a text message if there is a back up of text messages or there is a JAM this was slightly frustarting so I called Boost CS and they explained that for a new activation somtimes all the features need to program to my phone so give it a full 24 hours before everything was in order, so I waited and then slowly but surley things started to go in their place and as of now my text messages go to my inbox folder rather then my SMS folder therefor I now know who text me lol unlike before when I had no clue name or number on who was texting me, but give it atleast 3 days to program all to your phone properly for phones with new activation and this problem WILL be resolved. however there is still sometimes a slight delay in getting a text message and rarley you may have to download some in the event of a jam.

Walkie-Talkie aka Chirp: ah this is my most fav feature on this phone, the sound comes in crystal clear and it is much more convienient to send a chirp rather then a long text message, I actually knew no one with a chirp so I took my chirp number and switched a few numbers around and chirped random people, I explained to them that I just recently got this new phone and wanted to test out my chirp, we engaged in good conversation and as of now I have 20 friends with chirps from random number dialing and we all have fun and chirp chat and text its actually very nice and one of my fav features yet.

Speakerphone: Clear as a regular phonecall, I put the phone on my dashboard and drove hands free and the people I was talking to had no Idea that the phone wasnt up to my ear or mouth so this is a plus. good for safe driving without a bluetooth (witch I dont have )

Picture sending: I am still testing out picture sending seems to be a very lil trouble with it but Im working on it and I will soon post a review on that to.

ok now for a couple boost Apps that come pre programmed on phone....

Boost Hookt: ok this on I really dislike its like a chatroom for boost costomers and everything is great about it except, I cant figure out how to type/text in the post box because when I push a text button it strts typing words for me thast im not trying to say, so if anyone figures out how to actually type/text rather then it fill in words for you please let me know cause I can do this on all apps except this one, only on the login screen will it let me switch to alpha rather then word so this is a huge downfall seeing I cannot properly communicate without alphabet rather then it inserting words for me.

Boost Loopt: I love this app, its free and it lets you find out your location and any of your friends with boost location, you can make events and pick places on the map for you and your friends to meet, if your friend needs directions you can send it to him/her using boost loopt, its actually very easy to use and u can connect from your home computer and your phone, I think its a good feature to if your phone gets stolen mabey you can track it online, Im not suere but I will test this out having a friend take my phone and Ill see if I can locate him on the map, Ill repost that later and let you know.

Overall: Overall I give it 3.5 out of 5 stars this is a good phone if you have the patience to wait a day or so till all your features can cautch up, I recomend this phone personally just be patient for the first 24 to 48 hours then you will be satified with your phone I promise. Occationally there is a short delay in sending and reciving a text message and rarley you may have to download a text message if there is a back up of text messages or there is a jam but other then that its a great phone, if you got anyquestions for me about the i776 just ask me, call text or chirp my phone at 440-653-1824 or chirp me at 136*813*2649 or just send a private message to me on here and Ill get back to you within 48 hours.
