Pros: Big screen Picture messaging full keyboard 2 megapixle camera rubber keyboard loud music player great reception usb slim and small Simply the best phone on the market! My SK3 was my 1st SK device. I was in shock that the screen colorization on the SK2 was better then the SK3. The frustrating thing about the SK3 was the battery life, the screen display, and the inability to send picture text messages.
The LX is a nice upgrade. For the price tag they could have added in sooo much more. But the LX really is only a cosmetic upgrade. Nothing amazingly new is added in. The big plus of course is the screen which boasts better colors and the camera seems to be a bit better now that the screen has been upgraded.
The design is a bit on the square side so it reminds me a lot of the SK2 but it is thinner and lighter then the SK3. A nice addition to the LX is you can use any head phones for the MP3 player. Before you had to get only T-Mobile made ear phones but the head phone jack has been changed so you can now use your Sony ear phones or plug in your iPod ear phones and they work great. I love the added addition of sending voice text messages which is a nice plus. But you can only record 20 seconds of sound.
A nice new feature which I believe was on the SK2 but not on the SK3 were the lights that light around the SK whenever you receive a text message, IM, email, or voicemail it will light up nicely. Like I said I am rating this device a 9. This is the best phone i have ever owned.
The AIM is so good and the web browser looks wicked nice. Overall I'm extremely happy with the purchase. Finally got my SKLX in the mail today! I've used it non- stop the battery life rocks, same camera but the screen makes pictures look ten times better This sidekick pushes the limits when it comes to overall speeds of traveling from app.
I don't really want to say its the greatest thing out there but its definitely close!!! BTW CONS: The ring tones that you can purchase from tmobile for the phone are very muffled and quiet, but the ones that come stock with it are likely to break your eardrums with its sound quality and high pitched loudness!!! Final concern is the Internet, they just still haven't got the flash in it and pages are just as slow as the sk3 when they load But once loaded they work and look beautifully!
Last but not least, the blue looks totally different in real life compared to pictures found scattered around the web, Featuring a very very dark midnightly blue almost black, and what really helps set off the colors are the chrome trimmings and all four corner mood lights found around the device!!! I Love It!!! My opinion, Whats Yours? So I have had a ton of phones, most recently the Sidekick which I loved, but it was too small for me.
So I went shopping and decided to drop the cash on an LX. The result is an ok phone with an amazing feature set in terms of messaging. Pros: -Great keyboard -streamlined and easy-to-use software for messaging -Huge 3 inch screen with obvious Sharp Aquos technology -Thin but still sorta big at the same time, yet pocketable could be a con to some -nice overall feel rubberized backing, solid construction -Great reception -Stereo Bluetooth after update -Music player is basic, yet effective 3.
With that said factoring the average quality in the speaker and voice, and the battery life, it gets a 4. Overall I'm extremely happy with the purchase. Finally got my SKLX in the mail today!

With that said factoring the average quality in the speaker and voice, and the battery life, it gets a 4. All in all the sidekick LX is an amazing made phone that has to offer yet aside from the BB0 my main issue that i have with this phone is the camera. Listed below are the good qualities this phone has to offer keyboard: very easy to use especially if you are a video game freak and is use to using your thumbs, if not none the less it is easy and faster to use especially if you have fat fingers.
Trackball: runs smooth unlike the side like all other sidekicks you can the trackball speed Usb: yay i can hook up my phone to my computer transfer over songs and photos Memory stick: i can save my files not on my phone only but on a little card that i can remove and change to expand my memory.
Internet: unlike usage on other sidekicks i am not restricted to myspace and myspace alone, i can go on sites such as this and rpg sites as well.
Battery: getting from work by bus can take up to anywhere from 45 minutes to an hr and some minutes. Got this phone planning on switching to a sidekick plan, obviously. Well, tmobile lets me upgrade, sends me the phone, but I can't get on a sidekick plan since I'm on smart access. Fair enough, I'll run it prepaid. And I couldn't be more thrilled with the way that turned out.
This phone would be a disappointment if it were my main phone. As it has been stated, the speaker is awful, and the camera is worse. My texts seem to take forever for my recepients to receive, but I have some patience.
It's bulky and feels awkward holding it to my ear. But I suppose the latter is typical of a sk. I use my nokia as my main, and the speaker and same 1. Plus it came with a gig microSD. So I'll keep using my nokia for music, pics, and calls.

Ever since the most recent OTA update, my phone occasionally stops displaying all text other than the first character on the line.
Example, when I open a text message, all the first letters on each line display , but nothing else. I called T Mobile and they said they would call back in 2 hours, but they never did. I want to update to the new firmware so i can have all the new goodies that it comes with. I am wondering if the phone will relock if i update it or not.
If someone could let me know that would be great. Advertisements discussions continues below I'm curious if I could put Opera on a sidekick lx. Id like to be able to check out Youtube and what not. Im trying to figure out a way to put ringers on the this F'er also I just got the sidekick and I want to customize its ringtone but have no ideas where to go. I've used a Dash, n pearl before and this LX is sorta confusing to navigate around.
Has anyone bought any? Thanks in advance. I just got the sidekick lx and it takes way way longer to retieve my aol mail than it did on my sidekick 3. Anyone else having this problem?
