The battery performance makes me sick and doesnt last for a day. Even i changed the battery. The OS keeps hanging and needs a restart. Never buy this. Altogether a lousy phon.

Before i bought this phone, i was going through the net for reviews, and opinions. I was really hoping for an answer, which can make me decide on to buy or not this atom life. 50% of this ppl say its bad, 50% said its the best. It is the best phone i've ever had...!!! I had to buy a 3G phone for an assignment overseas, and this phone had never failed me. I do not understand why ppl say it has short battery life, cause i've tested this and my xda till this moment have gone one week without recharge (6 and half days since i've writing this on a sunday afternoon), and the battery life is at 43%. Ofcourse, its the standby time, but yet, one week standby is awesome.... And i know it works cause i've jus got off the phone with someone, and i'm on roaming as well. Believe me, its an awesome phone. I've never had a phone like this ever before. I believe the biggest problem with the phone was WM5, and the proper upgrade to WM6 solves everythin and makes this phone what i have right now. Will not trade this xda for anythin. I'm so glad i bought it, cause other options do not come close. And i've never had problems speaking long durations, the person on the other side have never complained on not hearing well, no restart needed, and my phone had never restarted on its own nor do i have to hard reset it. I dont really write reviews, but my xda is worth it, and i'm disappointed with all the bad reviews. Its trully an amazing phone and worth buying. Just upgrade to WM6 with proper installation Thank you. Pros: The phone is just so sleek, by far the coolest. The dial option is not bad at all cause big buttons appear on the screen, and you can just dial a number with your thumb. And my so far fav, the battery standby time of one week. Trully a nicely designed phone, very nice. Cons: I dont really like the speakers, its not loud enough for max volume (the ringtone speakers, not the one for hearing while speaking). And higher desibles will mess the speakers up. I cannot believe what i’m reading. Before i bought this phone, i was going through the net for reviews, and opinions.

This phone has a lot of problems, check google under o2 atom life then type complaints, issues, problems, user reviews etc. you will see what i mean about o2 atom xda life and o2 atom exec. i am a dissapointed user of two atom life phones. My video is at: enjoy! No doubt o2 will just rebrand the phone under a new phone and hope this debacle of such a poor phone will go away. this is about HARDWARE issues just as much as software issues. the phone is slow, poor camera, poor battery, buttons dont work, buzzing speakers, sound off, freezing, poor power function, distorted photos, slow slow and very slow to navigate and turn on... this phone is rubbish. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LduuzSYpK3o Im so disgusted with this phone ive taken my campaign through video means. check out why this is A BAD PHONE and why you should NOT BUY it.

I donot understand how can a company with a prospect of competing with big companies produce a very bad device like that. It is not a stable device requires reboot at least 3 times a day, output sound is very bad, camera is bad and its battery is useless and worst ever customer service. a $200 device is better.

After a full recharge it lasts for a single day (maximum 2) even without making calls or using the device as an MP3 player. I called the customer service and it is the worst customer service you can deal with. They confirmed that there was a batch of faulty batteries, but they refused to replace mine. DO NOT BUY THIS DEVICE, BUY FROM A REPUTABLE COMPANY INSTEAD I bought the atom o2 life and its battery life is very bad.
