Samsung Suede SCH-R710 (Cricket Wireless) review

The Features rating was changed from 8 to 7, and the Design rating was changed from 7 to 6, on September 8, 2011, in light of our review of the Samsung Vitality .

Cricket gets kudos for the Samsung Suede's compelling music features, but both Samsung and Cricket have flaws to fix.

Really really Bad Phone

I bought this phone for the muve music and it is really the only thing I like about it. I'm always losing my clock on the home screen, the phone will freeze then restart, the phone will lock up to where I can't unlock it, sometimes the menus wont open,...
