Consider what is important, there is more , You cant see when your receiver is answering your message unless you choose out of the chat features. I had that on my phone already. I can tell if someone has opened my messages and I can see when they are replying. I like that. I actually chose messages so I can message from my computer...as ny phone. I dont have to hassle with looking for, picking up or have this long distraction with my phone. I can call Speakin& text from my computer. Lovin It!
