Review of Motorola I-290 Boost Mobile Pre-Paid Phone Also Tips and Tricks

The Information for the I-290 You Just Cant Find!

The I-290 Boost Mobile Pre-Paid Phone is valued around $50.00

With a $50.00 pre-paid card you can get un-limited, Internet, Txt, and minutes which isn't a bad deal but this phone has the worst drop call ratio and reception I have ever had. When you get all green bars the phone works great in most major cities I have been in but once you road trip a little out of town your calls will drop like crazy. The only trick I found to make the found get all green bars out side the city is to flip the phone upside down and talk with the speaker phone on apparently you get all green bars most the time! Weird huh? Try it! It worked fine for me..

Another big headache is when you are typing a text message and the phone ring's the call is auto answered and your message is either totally gone or in the drafts folder, Still a pain! There are some good feature's I can say, The voice record is nice but I hardly ever use it, The internet run's at a fair speed for a small phone the browser built in isn't good at all but if you figure out how to install a application called Bolt which is a wap web browser free for cell phones. It works amazingly good you can actually see full websites and some take a bit to load but it works!
