First Unboxing/Commercial of the Sidekick LX 2009

T-Mobile has just posted the first unboxing commercial for the Sidekick LX 2009 on their YouTube account. Unfortunately it doesn’t really show much of the device. Luckily Appletech comes through with a video for all of you that want to see what the device actually does. Check out his 7 minute video showing off the Sidekick LX 2009.

    2. crazyforiphone Says:

    3. Nicole Says:

      pretty *** that a video FROM TMOBILE wont play on my TMOBILE G1…

    4. S!dekick user Says:

      That commercial is pathetic. Its awful. Jesus christ I could do the same thing on my macbook. The internet looks slow. But that may be for a reason as to like not in a good service area. To me the browser looks better. The o.s is still the same. They barley changed anything. but I guess thats fine. But the internet (besides when the person went on youtube) looked dissapointing.

    10. J-rib Says:

      IM NOT GONNA COMPLAIN BASED OFF ONE VIDEO/COMMERICAL THAT DID NOT SHOW WHAT THE PHONE IS FULLY CAPABLE OF BESIDES SUM SITES LOAD QUICKER AND SLOWER THAN OTHERS SO IDNT SEE THE BROWSER AS A ISSUE,THE GUYS VIDEO DID NOT SHOW ALOT OF WHAT THE PHONE HAS SO 2 BASE YOUR DECISION ON THIS (crazyforiphone) CANCEL YOUR ORDER AND GO 2 THE IPHONE SITES U A LAME

    11. diablo Says:

      that commercial was funny. I think the company’s trying to keep an air of levity to it for right now, just to get the buzz out. I want to see that cartoon guy come back; the one from the csk. Those were the best sk commercials.

    12. pimpchez Says:

      how do any of you guys know how the phone is

      Right? I don’t get how they are basing the new devices’s internet on this commercial? I have to be missing something because everyoneis saying the internet is still slow? I’m confused.

    14. BL@Z3 Says:

      there’s plenty of things 2 consider such as he might have been in a basement and just because it said 3g it might have not been running on a 3g band or network sorry but u have 2 think about these things i think everyone who is worried about it should order it and see how it is for those 14 days that you can you it to ur full extent if u don’t like it URSELF after that send it baq

    15. diablo Says:

      I heard tmo has slower 3g than the other carriers anyway, so slow(er) internet is expected. If u guys noticed, it looked as if the sk in the clip lost the 3g service and had to find it again. That takes time

    16. Crazyforwhat Says:

      Meme, we are talking about the YouTube video that was posted showing how the YouTube works.

      It took like 45 seconds for re YouTube site to load. And then another 40 seconds for the video to buffer.

      Don’t make excuses the kick had a good 3g signal. I think it had like 3 bars?

      It’s ironic that appletech is a sidekick developer,(his name is apple tech). I bet my left testicle that he owns an iPhone. In fact most of the danger deb community have migrated to iPhone and g1 dev communities, because submitting to danger QA department is a super pain in the a$$. Jgeorge is a Harda$$!

    17. S!dekick user Says:

      Im not critizing the phone. Iam just critizsing the commercial. I think this is going to be a good solid sidekick. I think it may make people come back to it. I just hope the internet isnt really like that.
      but like u guys said im not gonna critize it on one vid.

    18. TIco Says:

      Yes!!! omg!!! the wrost commecial I have seem comin from a phone!!!!!!!
      But That will not stop my idea of the new kick.
      So far its way better than my sk LX
      and Daum you tmobile for targeting just TEENS!!!
      focus on the general public!!! not just one age rage.
      AND OMG!! The ****** price is crazy… and it will go down in price soon.
      when did the LX go down in price after reease date????
      Iphone is just a nice apped touch screen bar phone… it comes down to prefference of keyboard and style.
      WOW what would theyt include for a new OTA???

    19. D3m0 in RI Says:

      WAT A DUMBA$$ CLIP! BUT IT WAS A GLIMPSE SO WE THANK U HIPTOP 4 TRYNING NEWAY!LOL. SHE SHOULDA @LEAST GAVE US A LIL PEEP SHOW BESIDES DA PHONE LMFAO

    20. makaveli Says:

      wow the LX09 talks

    21. diablo Says:

      Lol @ makaveli. Good 1

    22. gizmo Says:

      I can’t see the vid yet. I’m on the kick that doesn’t play vids. I will check it out when I get home. I need a phone that will let me watch mobile p-o-r-n and youtube vids. Lol

    23. Greg Says:

      UGH. OMG. This is bullcrap, my account has 7 months left. T-Moble allows me to upgrade ONLY on the National release date. That’s Bull****! I’ve been an existing customer and my account doesn’t even allow me to upgrade, at all! I wanted that phone, NOW. But whatever, the only thing they are doing is giving me free EXPRESS shipping. -_-

      They can shove that FREE EXPRESS. I need more reimbursements than that!

      I should totally file a BBB. Complaining that as an EXISTING customer, I wasn’t allowed the phone! Anyone think I should? And get some free stuff?

    24. S!dekick user Says:

      Greg stop being a drama queen. Your contract still has months on it. You can only upgrade at 22 months. Its happening to everyone. Just build a bridge and get over it.

    25. Domo(CHAOS) the KING Says:

      Where is Johnny chase from the sidekick colo commercials this commercial was funny but not as cool as the anime webisodes from the color sidekick

    26. Greg Says:

      Dear S!dekick user,

      I know you can upgrade at 22 months. Though, as promised by a T-Mo rep. she was able to make my account eligible for an upgrade, SINCE I was a loyal customer and really wanted to phone.

      So, whatever. Too late, already filed it. I hope for the best.

      I wanna know what happened with the “Myspace experience you just can’t miss!”

    28. Anonymous Says:

      Omg I just read Greg’s comments and he is such a whiny baby! Calm down and suck it up, I was dumb and uped to the 08 in October, I have to wait a while. Trying to “file a complaint” and “get free stuff” is so effing trashy and makes me so mad. It was somehow YOUR fault that you can’t get exactly what you want, stop trying to blame other people. It’s people like you who rear-end cars and get whiplash, it’s people like you who ruin things for people. GTFO loser.

    29. s!dekick user Says:

      Thanks anonymous glad someone agrees with me. He needs to get over him self.

    30. TT Says:

      Hey I have a question. My sidekick 2008 just crashed like all it shows is a white screen when I power it up and the date and time reset every time i turn it on.
      I am under warranty but I heard that the service for that is bull. Do any of you guys think I could get the new LX for at least a lil cheaper after the release date instead of gettin a refurbished 08… cuz i don’t want another one.

    31. Greg Says:

      MMM. I love it! I love being a whiny baby and I love not having to “admit my own guilt”. Just because retards like you get screwed over and you take it like a bit**, some of us don’t. So play with your SK 2008 with Edge while I get my sh** for free.

      The BBB can’t do ****. They can’t make T-Mobile offer you anything and more than likely T-Mobile will respond to your claim offering your free shipping once again and the BBB will close your claim finding that T-Mobile did their best to reconcile the situation. So I say be happy with the Free Express because they didn’t even allow that option on preorders.

      You’ve obviously never developed for Danger or Apple. Apple’s developing process is no different trust me. You can get denied for the smallest thing. Having a good 3G signal doesn’t mean ****. I own an iPhone and an SK and I can have an excellent full bar 3G signal on my iPhone but it will tell me Safari can’t load the page because there is no connection or that Maps can’t load my map because it has no connection. Same with the G1. Get your facts straights. They are being logical not making excuses.

      You want an LX you are going to have to pay for it. You people who keep trying to get something for nothing…STOP IT! They will send you either a new or refurb 08 (more than likely refurb). Now if you want to do an exchange, sell it on eBay, get what you can for it, and put the money towards a new LX by all means do so…nothing they can do it about it. But even if they were all sold out of 08s there is no way they are going to send you a $450 phone when they are selling the one you have right now for like $50. They would send you a phone of equal or lesser value but since there really is not phone of lesser value they would probably send you a check in the mail for the price of the phone if anything. I remember when my DWade broke and because they were all sold out they were trying to offer me a SK3 which was unacceptable for a phone that I had paid out the *** for.

    33. Greg Says:

      Dominica, actually, BBB can. I’ve gotten out of my contract before without paying the ETF. So whatever, and I will let everyone know exactly what the outcome is after T-Mobile calls me in regards of this complaint. So stay tuned!

    34. ICON Says:

      Eek. I’m just as upset about the “being a loyal customer (7 years) and being in month 18 of a 2 yr contract and getting screwed upgrade price wise” as you are, Greg. A measly $30 savings for the thousands of dollars I’ve put in T-Mobile’s pockets is indeed RIDICULOUS…

      …but to bother the BBB is a bit much. However, best of luck to you!

    35. Greg Says:

      ICON: You know, depending on which rep. you speak with, usually they will enable your account for an upgrade if you have served the 2/3 of the contract. As they did to me, and my largest concern was that as an existing customer, I was not allowed, AT ALL to upgrade my line. That is what I’ve been trying to say, T-Mobile’s website and their systems are denying me to upgrade, even if I have to pay $419.99. It wont even let me do that, that is what is upsetting me the most for the longest time.

      I agree though, a lot of money is put into T-Mobile by consumers, and at times, they have sympathy. And thank you ICON for giving me the best of luck, I am curious how T-Mobile will handle my issue, again, to anyone curious, I will post back when they do respond. And I will let everyone know what happen.

    36. s!dekick user Says:

      I hope they tell Greg to go shove it. I will laugh so hard.

    37. Anonymous Says:

      Lol I hope they screw him over and switch his data plan to the 35 or whatever, something for all the trouble he will undoubtly try to cause. You may want to get something for free, but why wouldn’t tmobile? Gosh you are so self-entitled to everything and
      acting like a toddler. Why should you get special treatment? You are not the first person that has been in this situation and you won’t be the last. Suck it up and move on, stop trying to scam/rip off people because “baby didn’t get his bottle”. You must have been an only child, grow up..

    38. Greg Says:

      Haha, alright unknown user. Quit trying to be some kiss *** conformist and following s!idekicks league. For one, that data thing you mentioned is retarded, you just made an *** of yourself. Two, I should get special treatment because I’m a bit** and I know how to survive. I don’t like to “suck it up” and move on. Unlike you lazy fu**s, I enjoy trying to defeat those who stand in my way. So I really don’t care what you guys say, I did it, its done, and we’ll see what happens.

      And I wasn’t an only child, I’m the youngest of two.

    39. s!dekick user Says:

      Greg are you ***? You sound worst then my sister. And infact. If you dont care what we say why are you coming on the site everyday checking what we say? Idiot.

    40. s!dekick user Says:

      Greg if you dont care what we say why do you keep coming back here and checking what we say? And good for you if you filed the report. No one cares.

    41. Greg Says:

      s!dekick:

      I have the “Notify me of follow up…” checked. So that’s why. And yes, I am ***. But I doubt that has anything to do with it.

    42. s!dekick user Says:

      I knew it!

    43. Greg Says:

      How can you tell? Did you also come with a Gaydar built in?

    44. s!dekick user Says:

      sure. But just so you know. No one really cares if you get your **** free or not. You are worse then a girl. You sound.. well type or whatever like my freacking sister. Stop acting like a girl. grow some balls and get over it

    45. Greg Says:

      Whatever, I don’t see why you care to begin with. So why does it matter to anyone if I complain a lot or not? If I grow balls and get over it, will you grow a brain and get over it?

    46. s!dekick user Says:

      I care because its people like you who annoy. Alot of people are in the same situation and you dont see them bitching like you are. Your not special stop thinking you are. And fyi. I already have a brain but balls are things your seriouly lacking.

    47. cevyn Says:

      yeah ICON I agree ive been a loyal customer for 8 yrs i feel like my loyality isnt work the money i have put out, i upgraded from sk to sk 2 to sk3 to a sk08 and very upset, no flash, i mean it was my fault i think a new phone would down grade but hey, im not impressed by the sk anymore. it sticks when im calling, it delay when im texting, & the kicker, having to pay for mobile to mobile when its free on other networks! it just plain pisses me off …. Im so fed up with the sidekick this video hasnt shown me anything new but more disappointment! as for greg ive thought about calling BBB on them as well, a few years ago i was charged overage mins on my account from calling the other number on my account, call me crazy but $367 in overage mins from calling nothing but my boyfriend under my account… that was plain unfair! since then i dont have to pay the stinking $6.99 which isnt a big deal but still it was the same account for goodness sake!… good luck with that!

      sidekick orchid. This is how I feel about it…
      I like how they calmed down on the flashy lights, it doesn’t look like a toy anymore..
      Now, its more suitable for a girl. finally, the original lx was so masculine w/ the colors.. i like this orchid, purple’s my fav color. less urban for sure.
      internet is internet, it’s def, faster, and with the youtube is bad ***.
      The plan is great cause data is $20 for unlimited everything, idk bout you guys, my bill is 52 a month and that’s w/ a few themes and apps.. facebook and all that jazz no subscription fees!
      The camera seems updated and with a unusual double flash, which you can tell is similar blackberry style now.
      gps, nice touch.
      i could say it’s just about time t-mobile’s sidekick has caught up with it’s competition. i’m finding new **** out about this device all the time. i mean most phones like iphone and blackberry’s are more advanced, sidekick is finally up there i’d like to say it’s worth 400 but i only spent 200 for it on ebay brandnew and just stuck in the sim card
      vzw couldnt do that. sold my old lx 150 on craigslist. lol i’d personally invest in a iphone if i was about to drop almost half a g on a phone.
