i picked up one of these go-phones for $15 when i smashed my L7. i didn't want to get raped with the cost of a new phone from AT&T and they would probably end up renewing my contract behind my back. i even asked the staff at the AT&T store about slapping my SIM into a go-phone and they said go for it. so i've been using this cheapo phone for almost a year (?) with relatively no fuss.
it does what is should, makes calls & texts, has alarms, a calendar/organizer, etc. mine doesn't have the FM radio, i-tap or currency converter. i'm sure at&t de-contented this stuff so they could sell it for less than $20. battery life was admirable when it was new, but it seems to be slowly shortening on me. it has a lot of cheesy ringtones, so i programmed my own on the phone's composer app. the display is lo-fi washed out.
actual call quality is good, but reception can be horrible at times. it looks cheap, feels somewhat cheap, but not too bad...it is very light but feels sturdy enough. i've thrown mine full force at a wall and it barely received a ding and yet it is still 100% functional.
seriously, at $15 a pop, i am obviously not worried about babying this thing and i toss it about very carelessly indeed, yet it has held up quite well. it's made me realize that expensive, fragile, feature-laden, super cell phones are probably not for me. probably gonna get me a samsung b2700 and keep the motorola as the cheapo backup.

C'mon....You want a fone 2 b what it is meant for . Dats to make n recieve calls propahly, sms occasionally. And c168 does these things perfectly. It also gives u option of listening radio. Where is d scope 4 complaints? For all other funs go spend more bucks, u cant get them cheaply. Theres nothing as free lunch. THIS IS REAL COOL ONE.
