pros and cons I bought my x8 about 4 months ago and allthough i use a lot the internet and love to use its wi fi to chat i must say that there are better phones for the same price. Why?? Its simple. Its 128 mb memory is almost instantly used by downloading apps. If you think you will be able to have more than 10 normal apps you are wrong. It can only be upgraded.to android 2.1 and that means that you CANT SAVE APPS OR GAMES TO YOUR SD CARD. Also you dont get multi touch or half the games inthe market and if you want android 2.2 or 2.3 you will have to root your phone and thus lose your waranty. I should have bought the LG optimus one or another phone. Thanks. September 4, 2011
