But I break there phones so easily so I am wondering does any one know of a cricket phone that is durible but still good for texting a pic messanging mainly??
Answer
The two that I would recommend would be the Samsung Messager which is available in blue or green. It has a 1.3 megapixel camera, an MP3 player and a sliding pull QWERTY keyboard. The other is the Kyocera Lingo. It too has a 1.3 megapixel camera and flips open to offer you a full QWERTY keyboard.

I've heard it's a good camera, but I want to hear some reviews/opinions on it. Where did you get it? How much was it? Do you recommend it? Any extras I should consider buying with it?
I'd like to order it with my Christmas money online, so if you have any recommended sites to order from, please link them in your comment!
Answer
I have owned the Canon EOS Rebel T3i since the month that it came out. Of course when it came out it was much more expensive, now since it has been updated by the T4i and the T5i; it's much cheaper. You can find it as of the time I am writing this for $437 with the EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens. I am a reviewer on Amazon.com and wrote a review on this camera when it came out, but I will update my review as of today with a much more detailed review; I will include a transcript below and include my reviewer page for you to visit and confirm this. In plain and simplistic approach though, I highly recommend this entry level DSLR.
Review:
The Canon EOS Rebel T3i/EOS 600D/ EOS Kiss X5; a truly fantastic entry level DSLR for the price it's available at after being replaced by the Canon T4i & T5i. Featuring an 18.0 megapixel APS-C CMOS Sensor and a DIGIC 4 image processor it packs quite a lot of power in a small body. The camera is capable of shooting continuously at a maximum speed of 3.7 Frames per second; which isn't bad. It can also shoot in Full HD at 30 frames per second or 24 frames per second; or 720P at 60 frames per second.
The Drawback with video:
There is one thing that might make you avoid this camera if you want it specifically for video. It doesn't have the ability to focus automatically when recording a video. It is per say, possible; however, the time it simply takes to automatically adjust the focus takes way too long and is very noisy when using any lens that doesn't have USM (Ultrasonic Motor). This is not a bad thing though if you plan on shooting video in manual focus, it takes a while to get used to it, but the video quality that is produced with this camera is simply superb!
The camera features a 9 Point AF system which for the most part in my uses has proven to be decently accurate for the most part. Considering this is an entry level DSLR, it is more than enough for the average user. You can always just manually focus on your subjects and avoid being mistakenly focused on something that you don't want to be emphasize.
One of the most useful designs of this camera is the Vari angle LCD display it offers. It is what made the camera unique when it came out and it introduced a wide variety of possible shots without the discomfort that you would have had to go through before. Let's say that you want to take a photo from the bottom up, at a bug's eye perspective; before, you would have had to either lie down on the floor to look through the viewfinder or struggle by looking at the display that was only viewable at a certain spot. Now you can simply take a knee and flip the display in order to compose your shot with ease. The complete opposite of this scenario is also applicable, taking a picture from top to bottom you simple flip the display and adjust to where you can see your environment and subject perfectly.
Low Light shooting with this camera can be a struggle, at least with the stock lens that is usually bought with the camera (18-55mm). Pictures begin to look noisy reaching about ISO 1600. They are however still usable. When at ISO 6400 it can be pretty noisy, but any other camera would struggle here as well unless it is a true professional DSLR that reaches extremely high ISO sensitivities. The ISO on the camera is expandable to 12,800, but at that sensitivity pictures are pretty much useless. They will look as if they were taken with a cell phone and noise is observable everywhere even without zooming into the picture. If you want to take pictures in low lighting conditions you have two options: A) You can always use an external flash if possible, or use the pop up flash that is integrated on the camera. B) You can purchase a separate lens for the camera that a wide aperture; such as f/1.2, f/1.4, f/1.8
Some of these lenses can cost a lot of money, some more than the camera it's self. Remember though that the overall quality of an image can usually be a lot better with a great lens that an excellent camera with an average lens. The f/1.8 Canon lens runs you about $100, the f/1.4 about $300, and the f/1.2 for either $1,400 for the old version and $2,000 for the newer version.
How does this camera compare against a normal point and shoot camera?
A main concern by many is if having a DSLR like this will make a vast difference than the average point and shoot camera or high quality cell phone camera. The answer to this question is a simple yes. You will notice the difference with just the first time that you take a picture with this camera. 18.0 megapixels is a lot! There are other camera's in the market such as the Nikon D3200 with a 24.2 megapixel sensor, but in reality... you will never have a need for such a plethora of megapixels unless you are going to be printing out billboard sized photos. 18.0 megapixels is already enough and megapixels isn't always everything. The truth with megapixels is that sometimes too many of them can degrade the quality of a picture. In low lighting conditions a camera with a lower amount of megapixels will out perform the one with a higher amount of megapixels. This can be proven even with the simplest of camera's such as a webcam. The less the megapixels, the more light enters due to the pixels being larger.
The body of the camera is tough and is sure to last a long time if taken care of. I have owned this camera since the month that it came out and I don't regret purchasing it. It has never failed me in any occasion. One thing you should note though, if you want to record video with this camera; make sure you purchase a good memory card that is capable of processing the data quickly or else you will find the camera automatically stopping video recording. I would recommend a memory card such as the PNY Elite Performance SDHC memory card. It features 90 MB/s read speeds and won't let you down when recording video. It is also enough to capture continuous shots when shooting in RAW which extends the usefulness of a picture when editing them. The advantages of editing when you take a picture in RAW are simply amazing and is something that no normal point and shoot can offer.
Overall I rate this product a 5 stars out of 5 stars!
I hope this review has helped you out!
