Helio Hero phone Review

Posted on 2006-05-24 00:19:49 by LSDsmurf

The Helio Hero ($275 list) is the first MySpace phone. If you spend your life on the popular social-networking site, that should be enough to send you running for your credit card. If MySpace isn't YourSpace, though, Helio might be a tougher sell right now...

The hero is a better device but the kickflip can be troubleshot to work on some things

Now also look at the pricing

The pricing is EVERYTHING you are using
well, mainly the phone access and that's it if in the All In plan.
That's $85 month for 1000 minutes
I have a T-Mobile device and pay $100 a month and it has 1/10th of what the Hero supplies

So look at how much a

MP3 player costs
Internet access costs
digital camera costs
video camera costs
etc

You could be paying
$400+ all together with all those things

You will see that the costs of the Helio devices and plans are well worth it

As far as glitches and bugs go, most products in the open market have had bugs at one point or another and the companies still survive and get many fixed.

Also only a small percentage of people have Bluetooth too.

Just look at http://www.pantech.com
who makes the Hero

Qualcomm makes the components
The leader in cell phone components

There's a multitude of features and benefits that outweigh the negatives.

Digital Chocolate joined
Sprint joined
Verizon joined
Fandango joined
MTV joined
Yahoo joined
etc

They must see potential or they wouldn't get involved

:)

MUCH MORE TO COME
