I searched the Suggestion forum and it doesn't look like anyone requested it yet. That's the best place to bring it up. :thumbsupdroid:

I'll mention it in the staff thread for new phones. :)

I requested it 4 weeks ago, but I searched and searched and couldn't find it now......
I'm not sure how it could have disappeared so maybe I just keep overlooking it.
 
Someone asked for a Boost insider's perspective? Here you go:

I've been using the Boost LG Stylo for almost 3 months. The screen is cool--as my first large phone, I'm digging it.

As of right now? Three months in, the screen is the phone's best feature.

About a month ago, I started getting storage warnings, and it started lagging to the point of absurdity (10+ sec to load the home screen, for example). I deleted every app that wouldn't transfer to my SD card, have been religious about clearing data and cache, and right now, I'm running with 350 MB free. So 7.5GB of bloat, which I simply can't clear up.

Fun fact: did you know you can't even sync email without 10% of your device's storage free?

For $200, I was really happy with the phone at first. I'll be rooting the phone as soon as a solid Boost root comes through, but if it doesn't, I'm going to have to get a new phone.

(Also, the camera sucks--it's noisier than my Samsung Galaxy Prevail's photos. A minor issue for most people, but I would have paid the extra $50 for another s3 if I'd known. Megapixels aren't everything. Hoping a root with better camera software will help a little.)
 
I got the MetroPCS (Tmobile) version for my gf just because of the Boost 1GB ram / 8 GB storage crap.

She has 2GB ram /16GB storage +32GB sd card, no problems so far
The Lolipop 5.1.1. upgrade even made it better
 
Ok so I owned the ZTE max..original from boost..annoyingly it condone continued to give me problems in the texting department I decided to get a new phone...I actually ended up getting the metro pcs variant at 80 bucks..here's how..they have a sale on where it's 129...and if you're from boost it comes down to 80.... specially after this article

What issue with texting are you having with the ZTE Max? I've owned both the MAX and current the warp elite and I have texting issues where it will fail to send texts and I'll have to reset my phone for it to work. I don't believe I've this issue with any other phone.
