Strengths: WiFi calling, full keyboard, good battery life, very customizable
Weakness: Internet browsing
I replaced my Blackberry Perl with this phone about 3 months ago. The greatest thing about this phone is it's ability to make calls over a WiFi connection. Every network I know gets terrible service in my apartment, but with this phone I am able to make calls without having to stand against the window.
It's got the other benefits of being a Blackberry. It is functional, customizable, compact, and has great battery life. I just wish they could figure out how to make their internet browser better.
