I got this phone the morning it came out last week, and I was extremely excited to give it a try as "my new phone of the year".

This morning, I returned it. First, the flipping... I thought it would be a great thing to have a two-sided phone, thinking it'd work on either side with what I wanted to do. Boy, was I wrong.

When you need to input text and you're doing this from the menu (IE calendar, etc), that darn "FLIP PHONE" screen makes me, surprise, flip the phone. Constantly.

The touch pad couldn't keep up with my fast-paced, need to get to this option right now, finger tapping. After multiple freezing on the menu, it began locking up during/after calls - the smaller LCD screen on the phone side. Last night the phone screen turned completely white, causing me to turn it off/on 2 times. This was ridiculous.

I returned the phone, displeased with the model. Maybe future models will be more stable, but I couldn't handle the buggy thing.

No worries, I honestly wanted to fall in love with using this phone... but it truly disappointed me, especially having a previous Samsung A920; I'm just not into the whole music playing on my phone - probably because I have an iPod, and I only listen to music while I'm in front of a computer or driving. The buggy, random freezing and blank/messed up/weird screens was what got to me though. I remember once it pulled up a bunch of tiny windows within the one screen, as if it was pulling up multiple TV channels of my ended call - weird.
