Hello, I am in grade 10 and I have been begging my mom for a cell phone and she is finally letting me get one! I just can't decide which kind to buy, I want it to be a Solo phone. The cell phone needs to be small, easy to use, and scratch-proof; and also it has to have unlimited texting!! If you have any ideas please answer!

It is not the phone but the plan that gives you unlimited texting. Remember the plan will have a limit on the number of phone minutes in most cases. NOKIA has some basic phones, not the fancy ones, but they are very strong and can take being droped to some point. Many of the fancy phones don't hold up at all. I went back to the cheaper NoKIA phones last week after destroying 3 of the RAZOR phones last year. My last cheaper NOKIA lasted over 3 years.

I have had a motorola for about 3 years and the poor thing has been through a rough time... it has held up great. I also like the 1 piece phones that do not flip, less to break off.
