Smaller size means smaller screen and keyboard, not a fair trade. Calls faded in and out. Lacks key multimedia features and accessories. EDGE networking is slow, lacks capabilities customers might enjoy in a Sidekick device.

infoSync World Reviewed T-Mobile Sidekick Slide and gave out “The Sidekick will be an interesting phone to watch when T-Mobile goes 3G, but perhaps the carrier should leave the Slide behind on that journey. In sacrificing a half-inch length, T-Mobile has only shrunk the keyboard and display, and has not made a phone that feels smaller than the larger Sidekick LX. The Slide should have been the Sidekick RAZR, a thin, tight-fitting phone with a solid feel and near-invisible seams. Except for novelty, we can’t see why T-Mobile chose the slider mechanism, especially on a phone named “Sidekick.” In other ways, too, the Sidekick Slide fails to deliver. Multimedia capabilities lag behind competitors, and even the interface is starting to feel dated. Mostly, though, compared to recent competitors, the Sidekick has lost its competitive edge as a trendsetting messaging phone.”
