With the design improvements and addition of features such as 3G and GPS, the T-Mobile Sidekick LX 2009 graduates from a simple messaging handheld to a real connected, all-in-one communication device for the younger crowd. Read more

The new Sidekick LX 2009 PV 300 GSM cell phone I ordered malfunctioned after assembly. It had been properly charged. I had no choice but to return it and order a new one. It is supposed to be an excellent phone; I assume I had the misfortune to receive a lemon. Read more or see product

Are you like, REALLY into Twitter and Facebook, and like, blinged out wallpapers and paying for phone apps and like, playing video games on your phone? Then this is the phone for you. I'm not into any of that and I unfortunately have this phone. Buy an Android. Read more
- You can call someone with it.
- Limited (PAY) selection of garbage apps that should only appeal to the preteen demographic. Non-intuitive, 4-button menu controls. I can keep going...
