Satisfied with the phone's performance and look. It would be great if it wasn't plastic, but that would make it more expensive.

Comments about Kyocera Kyocera® Slice for Virgin Mobile:

i love this phone.it is really thin and looks really sleek. it is a great phone and does everything you need it to do for the price.

i am a major text-a-holic, and i bought this phone and the VM service mainy for cheap unlimited texting. it is a really cool and cute phone, and the lightweight, thin, and tiny look is really great. there arent many ringtones or wallpapers, but you can always buy more if you want to. the screen is really bright and colorful, and messaging is really easy with the buttons that are easy to press and flush with the phone surface. it could be a bit too thin for people who drop their phones alot or have a record of breaking phones since it is .4" wide. but i love the thin ness because it makes it easy to put in hand and pocket.
loooove it!

I kinda like the phone, but when I talk to a friend, it gets hot after like 1 minute of talking. When I was playing tetris, it got mad hot after like 2 minutes. Buttons are hard to use, and the screen is small.

My phone gets very little use. The Slice is reliable and has a good signal and decent features. Look elsewhere if you depend heavily on your phone or need more features.

I primarily use my phone for texting, so the cheaper the text rates, the better. At only 1cent per message, I had to go with Virgin Mobile, and the slice was the best looking phone they had.

Comments about Kyocera Kyocera® Slice for Virgin Mobile:

I would not buy this phone! Yea sure its a little slimer then most phones but has no camera and the buttons and screen are very small, its like maybe a 1" screen and the buttons are maybe the size of your pinky nail. if you want a slim phone with no camera buy the marble!
