Besides having a very high cute factor, navigation and the features are quite easy to use. However, unless one has an extremely acute sense of hearing they will never hear it ringing. I constantly miss calls and am now shopping for a new phone.

This review is for: Microsoft Kin One Windows Phone
I just go this phone yesterday from verizon. I had an old chocolate 3 flip phone before. The front screen finally broke so I checked verizon online and called them to see what kind of new phone I could get, but without a data plan. I don't want to pay for a data plan when I already pay for internet at home. I asked them if they have any phones with Wi-Fi, but no data. The only phones verizon had that gets Wi-Fi is the Kin One and Two. I wanted the Kin two, but they don't sell it anymore. At first I thought the Kin One looks like a toy phone, it still kind of does. I didn't want the Kin One so I called AT&T and T-Moble. Neither one of them had a phone that had Wi-Fi without a data plan. I was then looking at getting the LG Cosmos touch, but it got bad reviews and it seems like it had a lot of bugs. The other flip phones were not even as good as my old chocolate 3. All these phone companies want you to pay for the data plan, so they don't make any nice flip phones with nice cameras or feature anymore. So, after about two weeks of looking at phones, I decided to try the Kin One and see if I like it. If I didn't like it I could just go back to my old phone. The Kin One was free anyways. So far the phone is not bad. You can't transfer your contacts from your old phone to the kin, you have to manually do it. I thought it would take a forever, but it actually didn't take that long. The other thing I notice is the phone doesn't have predictive text so now I have to actually learn how to spell. Before I would use perdictive text like a spell checker. It also doesn't have a note pad, I used to keep all my passwords on the note pad. But it does have Wi-Fi, 5 MP camera, video, FM radio, Zune player, and it is fast. It doesn't lag, but that might be because I don't have many pictures or video on it yet. It is taking me a little getting used to, but so far I like it. I know it is was made for a text-aholic teenager, not a 31 year old man, but it is better then my old flip phone. The best thing I like about it is the camera and of course the Wi-Fi. I will update this later if I end up hating this phone.
