Good phone for texting and calls
Phone owned for less than a month

This phone is extremely good for users who like the QWERTY Keyboards and talk, the big problem with this phone is the memory Ram, if you need to use this phone for a price match a in a store you can have a hard time, I need it to restart twice and remove the battery to get the browser going, if you have good income and you don't care about over paying stuff but you like texting this phone is for you, but if you care about take care of your pocket and you like to go online and check the prices and use your phone for price matches at stores this phone is not for you, I just wish Motorola bring a Admiral 2 with 3GB or 4GB of ram and the latest Android version, honestly I'm a fan of this phone just for the QWERTY Keyboard.

worst phone I have ever owned
Phone owned for less than 3 months

Battery life is terrible: about 10 hours before battery dies without using GPS, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or making any active calls. Touchscreen has lots of sensitivity issues. Managing emails is a total mess. Does not hold calls well in low reception areas. About the only plus is the camera is pretty good.

real quality pocket power....
Phone owned for less than a month

I've had this phone for about 3 weeks and i gotta say........I'm impressed. the look, feel and performance of the admiral is overall great for that person that does almost everything with their phone but doesn't want the bulkiness of lets say the size of an EVO ( which i actually switched from). as soon as sprint gets the PTT up and running to a decent level it will be a very versatile phone...
