it runs good
have had a couple of crashes with angry birds but apart from that it has been awesome :D

Have you rooted it yet?
Seriously, once you remove the orange crapps it's transformed. There's another thread on here about doing it.
I love mine, but out of the box it's crippled. De-orange it and don't look back.
Look up zte blade on modaco forums for all the best info.
(I'm on mine now)

Jeez it's just a forum, not a pyramid scheme.

Sean, as for sense well it's not the end of the world when it's a quarter of the cost of a desire and definitely more than 3/4 of the phone. I can live without it.

Oh yeah, Most phones are a rip off! That is really decent value!
