Very good
THE GOOD
The T-Mobile Sidekick offers customizable shells for extra personalization. The phone also features stereo Bluetooth support and a 2-megapixel camera with video recording and playback. The handheld continues to offers strong messaging capabilities.
THE BAD
The inclusion of Wi-Fi or 3G support would have been nice. The phone's speaker was very soft, and the video recording and playback is limited.
THE BOTTOM LINE
With the new features, extra level of customization, and affordable price tag, the T-Mobile Sidekick is a good choice for the carrier's younger customers looking for an all-in-one communication device.
