i had one i got so frustrated i smashed it... android needs 1ghz cpu or better the ally is ocable to like 768 mhz... i used to skin for it... such a bs phone... d4 all the way.. of u dont have the cash get a d3 or d2Do NOT get the LG Ally. Yes it slides easier but its a horrible phone. Its the phone I had before my rezound and I will NEVER go back. Besides the obvious that the screen is about 10 times smaller than what you have on your stratosphere now, there's SO many bugs with it. Mine lagged like no other, would constantly turn off on its own. It'd take me forever to send or receive a text. Some of my saved apps on my sd card would just up and disappear etc. HORRIBLE. My Ally didn't have any water damage or physical damage so nothing I did to it caused it to bug out on me. Its just how the phone is & is discontinued for good reason.
