The good: Great color on screen. Large viewing area on screen. Easy to use interactive menu. Has flash for built in camera. Has good voice quality through the handset.<p/>The bad: Software malfunctions too often causing a blank yellow screen and the only way to resolve is to shut down phone and start it up again. Camera does not have great resolution and you cannot record that much using the video camera. Does not display the length of the calls you make or take. The voice quality is poor when you attach a headset to the phone and it does not have bluetooth capability.<p/>Summary: Overall it is a mediocre phone that has exceptional display attributes and built in features, but lacks in software quality and camera clarity. They can improve or upgrade the software on the phone and clear up the resolution on the camera and add some more calling features. The voice quality over a headset needs to be improved and the addition of bluetooth compatibility would be great.
The good: Excellent phone with great multimedia features, handy swivel plate. Great in looks, picutres are quite impressive. Video shoot is simple yet quality is good. <p/>The bad: The memory size on the camera is too low. Also, voice activated dialing is not much impressive like other phones. The speaker sound is low sometimes.<p/>Summary: Overall, a good phone for people who want multimedia rich phones. You'll need to buy a micro-SD card to add more power to this phone but it is worth it. The large display screen really make it attractive. Battery life is just excellent.
The good: Good reception and battery life. Excellent Mac compatibility.<br><p/>The bad: Somewhat hollow voice quality. Slow data transfers.<p/>Summary: The Sony Ericsson Z520a cell phone features a camera, MP3 player, and wireless Internet access. This phone is specifically designed for the stylish younger generation, particularly young women, who want to carry an attractive accessory just as much as a mobile communications device. You can switch between grey and blue covers for your phone.
The good: Durable, Good battery life, Good features<p/>The bad: Will eventually break :(<p/>Summary: I have been with Sprint for about 2 years now. Since joining Sprint 2 years ago, I have had only one phone. I have put this phone through the paces and it is still going strong. I would highly recommend this phone to anyone.
The good: Nice style, great texture<p/>The bad: Does weird white screen, keys<p/>Summary: I got the phone in December of '05 and had it until July '06. In that time I experienced some awesome things and some horrible things. Goods: The phone had great features, good games, good camera, bluetooth.. And more. Bads: Phone occasionally did something to where it would almost shut itself off whenever it wanted, it would be completely black and in almost dead mode and had to turn it back on and wait like 5 minutes for it to go past a pure white screen. They keys are horrible, they are good for feeling around but whenever the screen is closed and they rub on the screen you get 3-4 scratches on both sides of the screen, not little ones either. All in all.. I really don't think it was worth what I payed for it.
The good: Huge Screen, SOO many features, good camera<p/>The bad: Not super light, battery is kinda bad<p/>Summary: I'm only 15 but I just got this phone off a friend. His parents had it and didn't like it so I got it as an early birthday present only costing $350. So far, its great. NEVER run out of things to do on it, I have U.S. Cellular so always awesome reception. I hear everyone perfect, texts are super fast. No problem seeing the screen ever, super bright. Love the keyboard, great for texting. The only thing that annoys me is when people call it announces the names instead of me just seeing for myself. That can get very annoying if you are in a public place. But, Its great. Dunno if I would have payed a thousand bucks for it but im happy with it for the price I got it!
The good: -can download extras<br>-Extendable antenna<p/>The bad: -Short battery life<br>-Gets really hot after 5 min of talking<br>-takes forever to turn on<br>-crappy old style ringtones<p/>Summary: I've had this phone for 12 months. It's an ok phone. It gets really hot after just 5 min of talking. It has old style ringtones and it always switches to analog mode when my mom who has the same phone standing next to me has 3 bars of signal! NOT RECOMMENDED!
The good: I like the phone because it has bluetooth, a voice recorder, and stuff like that. It's very light in weight and is a nifty device!<p/>The bad: The only thing that bugs me about this phone is the keypad pops out very easily...you have to be careful with it!!<p/>Summary: When I got this phone I was so excited because all of my friends sent me songs from bluetooth for free!! So, I went to work 2 days after purchasing the first phone and the sound in it went out! I was heartbroken...so I went back and got a brand new one, since I was under warranty! After that the second one has been great!!
The good: Very durable, have dropped it several times and no damage. The battery life has been very good also. <p/>The bad: The backlight does not stay on long enough at all. Also its hard to navigate. I still can't find the mute on it!<p/>Summary: It has been a dependable phone. I am fairly up to date with technology so I was surprised this model was fairly difficult to navigate. The backlight really needs to be on longer. I have found however, minus the problems mentioned above that I like the phone and will continue to use it for now. I really do like the configuration of being able to start the camera from the side with just a touch. I would NOT recommend this phone to someone who is older and/or not very techno savvy. For a young person its a very good phone.
The good: None I can think of. <p/>The bad: Cheeply made phone. <p/>Summary: My son had this phone less than 3 months. The screen went blank 3 times. Phone was returned for repair. Came back, lasted less than a week and screen went blank again. So he broke it in half. Won't buy a kyocera again.
The good: I do like this phone. It is simple but very easy to learn how to use. I love the volume on this phone, I never could hear my previous phone ring, but with the i760 I can select the level of volume. The ring tones that I can download are very clearly understood. Sometimes you get ring tones that don't even sound like the song, not with this phone! The battery life on this phone is fantastic! I have had this phone for six months and I can charge it once completely and it will be good to go for an<p/>The bad: The phonebook is a little bit confusing when you want to add additional numbers to an already existing contact. <p/>Summary: Overall if you are looking for a phone and you don't need a camera but you still want more than just your average phone, this is the phone for you. I plan to keep this phone as long as I can.

<p>The good: Comfort, design, build quality, screen clarity, sound quality, video capture, menu structure, expandable memory slot, battery life.</p>
<p>The bad: No mp3 format, WMA only, can't upload my own movies to the phone, can't select song from playlist without having to FF one by one. Front display gets washed out in direct sunlight.</p>
<p>Summary: The vx8300 packs a lot of features into a clean, well designed package. I really enjoy listening to my MP3 (WMA's) while at work. The music player controls below the front display work very well.<br />
They allow the user to turn on/off and pause the music player without having to open the phone.The phone also features a dedicated speaker phone and camera button (very useful)<br />
<br />
Overall the phone offers a lot of bang for the buck. I feel LG simply makes the best phones on the market today. I have owned the vx4400, vx6100 before upgrading the vx8300.<br />
<br />
I have never had a single problem with any of the previous LG phones and expect that trend to continue.<br />

The good: Good phone, doesn't break easily<p/>The bad: The part you put to your ear squeaks sometimes, like it's going to come off.<p/>Summary: It's a good phone, we got our rebate back fast so it cost us nothing. Sometimes when you press a button to speed dial, the lines will cross and you'll be talking #2, when you're supposed to be talking to #6, and the screen will tell you you're on the phone with #6, even though you know it's not true. And sometimes you have to hang up on someone to get their voice to stop 'shaking', usually when you call back it's gone.
The good: Compact design. Sturdy Build. High quality camera.<p/>The bad: Absolutely 0 freebies with purchase of the phone. Have to pay for everything.<p/>Summary: As a phone, its a great phone. If you're looking for extras for free, look at a different phone.
The good: Cheap 50$ Price... Audio quality is good. Study construction, dropped several times and works fine. Easy to use design.<p/>The bad: Low battery life after 1 year+ Volume is very low even on high, must change to speaker phone to listen.<p/>Summary: Overall decent phone for cheap price. You will get what you pay for. Do not buy for the camera, it is a bit less than mediocre.
The good: The 6102i is great! It has beautiful graphics and the camera is awsome! <p/>The bad: Low memory capacity and cant hold tons of numbers.<p/>Summary: The cingular 6102i is great. It has a great camera with stellar graphics. This phone is almost perfect for me except for the low memory. However I have got to give it props, the phone is the best phone Cingular has made.
The good: Great new look and feel and I love the displays. The addition of Bluetooth technology is awesome and makes it easy to send ringtones fast. Set-up is simple and the navigation is easy to customize. <p/>The bad: The video capture is poor and the vibrate is not strong enough to feel. When you are in your address book or other settings and the phone rings, it doesn't show you who is calling unless you clear out back to the main screen. Sound quality is below average.<p/>Summary: Nokia made many of the needed upgrades, but missed a lot of other basic improvements.
The good: Besides what I already liked about the 6101 the updated 6103 has an even better external display, added Bluetooth, and sleek design. <p/>The bad: Small complaints include the fact that they didn't get rid of the external stub antenna, and the speakphone quality is not loud enough.<p/>Summary: I just got the 6103 after using the 6101 for over a year. The improvements that Nokia made to the 6103 are just what the phone needed. It was already a great little camera phone, but the Bluetooth, the menu speed, and the added rubberized grip are wonderful.
The good: I needed a new compact flip phone and have had great luck with Samsung devices so I was glad when the A640 became available. It is light-weight and has an internal antenna so it fits easily in my purse or pocket. The displays are both bright and clear. With the A640 you can actually feel the vibrate feature when it's on! <p/>The bad: Not a sophisticated camera phone. Camera doesn't even come with a flash. I haven't been impressed with the quality of the speakerphone. <p/>Summary: For a basic clamshell camera phone with Bluetooth, this Samsung is a great deal. It looks good and works well, so I give the A640 a thumbs up!
