Kyocera Adreno S2400 / TNT!
How does this TNT compare to the Marbl?
I own the Virgin Kyocera Marbl and want to upgrade to a cell that is faster at texting/typing. And that scrolls pages or lets me type emails faster on the VXL mobile web.
I saw one review for this phone at this site that said it is faster than the Marbl, but MUCH faster...?
Can anyone tell me if it 'lags' or stumbles while typing texts or emails?
I type fast while texting and with the Marbl I have to wait a long time for the cursor to catch up so I can type the next letter. I do a LOT of texting (I get the 1000 pack) so that's really important to me.
Plus the scrolling speed on my Marbl is sort of slow, or jerky, sometimes I choose the wrong item because the delay is so long.

I decided to go ahead and buy the Virgin Mobile TnT since it was only $20 postage included at their site, and it came today.
Its operation is very similar to the Marbl, reminds me a lot of it just with the appearance changed.
I tested text typing and the keypad felt totally different than the 'raised rubber key' Marbl.
The TnT keypad is flat and smooth with grooves between the keys and it types faster than the Marbl. The feel of the keys is good, kind of soft with a click.
There was a SLIGHT lag if typing another letter that appears on the same key but it was very slight, nothing like the lag on my Marbl.
The look of the phone, graphics wise and design wise, is plain but kind of classy for the price.

I wrote a review on this phone if anyone interested in getting one wants to see my impression of its first day of use. It includes my initial startup impression of how the phone does on Virgin's mobile web or VXL.
Except for the limited themes for the phone (red, or blue), and lack of graphical smileys in the texting program, I really like the look or feel of its modernized graphics and style of the phone itself and it IS an improvement for Kyocera over the Marbl in most ways.
Would be nice to customize the text color or font for standby screen on the phone, to match the wallpaper. With some of the wallpaper, like the pale blue, the white text didn't stand out at all although it might have looked better if I adjusted the screen contr...
