I’ve had the phone for 2 weeks & battery life sucks. Verizon sent me a new battery… it did not hold the charge… they gave me a new phone - still will not hold the charge. I love the design & the “feel in my hands” - however, the on-screen touch is only good for pictures & music (which I don’t use it for)… I’ll probably end up returning it before the 30 days is up (& this is my back up phone… can’t get through the whole day w/even 1 hr worth of talk time & standby)
