The good: The inside keyboard is really nice if you're into texting! It's so much easier than a regular phone!<p/>The bad: If you take a picture using the outside screen, it stays that size when you open it, and it's a little dificult to take a picture with it flipped open.<p/>Summary: I've had the Strobe for about 6 months and I like it a lot compared to phones I've had in the past. It's very bulky in your pocket, though, which gets annoying at first, but otherwise, it isn't a bad phone. Like I said,though, the outside of the phone is a little small in size(not just the screen but the numbers, too!). And for some reason you can't bluetooth to work with other phones? I don't understand? But all of that aside, it has games and any other thing you really need to keep you busy. It's so great for texting and the picture quality is fairly good!
The good: its cute and the buttons are easy to use<p/>The bad: the brand is nokia<p/>Summary: i really love this phone and i cant wait to get it!! i am gonna always be using it and everytime i look at it, it will make me happy
The good: Color Screen, Very Tough, DirectTalk, Outside Screen, Good Quality Sound<p/>The bad: No Camera, Battery Cover/Clip "Cheesy"<p/>Summary: Good Phone, reliable... forgiving to abuse, front screen comes in handy, MotoTalk is nice for very quick chats, Games ofcourse! and Datebook is a handy little feature... GPS is also an added bonus...
The good: Loud ring, screen is easily viewable in the sun, big screen, good layout<p/>The bad: Vibrate mode isn't very powerful, the keys are "hard" I think is the word I'm looking for?<p/>Summary: Overall, the phone is very nice. It's sleek, looks professional, has a lot of options and works very well. Seems pretty durable also. I've only had it a couple days, but I am very pleased with my buy.
The good: Unlimited minutes, predictable bill, coverage in all markets, available pre-paid roaming. <p/>The bad: Limited web, unpredictable texts. Roaming coverage is not solid.<p/>Summary: I bought my first cricket phone in 2002. It was a Nokia and it was wonderful. Nothing special to it, but it survived everything and the service was great. Plus, it was free! I decided to upgrade to a Motorola a year and a half later. The charging system went, and despite the fact that I had insurance, my phone wasn't covered. I had to buy a new phone (Kyocera Energi) and I didn't even get a discount. I'd been with them for 3 years! I switched to Sprint because I moved away from a Cricket service area, and hated it, and since I've moved back I just got back with Cricket. I'm disappointed to find that they no longer have considerable phone discounts, unless you buy online. You really get what you pay for with the cheaper phones, and the more expensive ones lack some of the things that come with them if you went with another provider. (ie. Moto SLVR does not include data cable or memory card). The phone works well though, and I'll be purchasing the cable and card shortly. <br><br>The service in my area is very good, except for about 3 spots in my house. I learned a while ago to avoid them. The roaming coverage works, but not as well as I had thought it would. I went to Charleston, WV this weekend and didn't have all bars at all. Text messages will say they haven't been sent when they have, causing the recipient to recieve multiples of them. I was under the impression that the Mobile Web service would allow access to the internet. While it does allow me to check my Yahoo mail, it does not access ANY url, only the ones pre programmed. <br><br>So far, the employees at my local cricket store have been very helpful. The ones at the local mall though are an entirely different story. I was standing behind a couple for nearly 15 minutes before the other sales person even took notice of me. They didn't get the sale.<br><br>All in all, its a good service. I like it. I came back to it even. The phones are good from about the mid range up. I would only purchase the roaming if I thought I was really going to need it, otherwise, use a pay phone or something. Its not worth it.<br><br>Thanks for reading :)
The good: Size<br>Weight<br>Ease of Use<br>Display<br>Camera<p/>The bad: Hard to use for TXT msgs.<br><p/>Summary: Great phone, I havent had any major problems. The display is nice and it is very easy to use. Would recommend for someone else.
The good: Nice design, cool exterior<p/>The bad: not durable, randomly calls people<p/>Summary: The LG Chocolate has an awesome look on the outside. But overall, I wouldn't recommend this phone unless someone is purchasing it based on looks alone. Reason being is that the touch sensitive buttons located on the front of the phone causes the phone to randomly call the last person that was called on the phone. Also, the durability of the phone is not very realistic. I'm not saying that phones should withstand concrete or water, but phones should withstand normal storage such as pockets. The slight pressure of a front pocket when sitting down can crack the inside screen of the phone and that is not covered under warranty.
The good: good features, nice display, good sound<p/>The bad: not durable<p/>Summary: This phone is billed as a rugged phone but is not truly a rugged phone. I have owned this phone for about nine months and have already sent it back to Motorola two times because of the external display not functioning properly (not displaying at all). I do not treat this phone ruggedly although it is billed as a rugged phone. I carry this phone in a leather holster attached to my belt and in no way bang, drop, step on, or abuse this phone in any way at all. Overall, I have had phones not billed as rugged phones be more durable than this phone.
The good: Very easy to use and durable. Antenna works well and I seem to get service where other verizon users don't.<p/>The bad: Battery life is shorter than the other LG phones I have had in the past.<p/>Summary: This is a over all a very good phone. It does a good job of making and receiving calls and I have dropped it many many times w/o problems. Much improved over the VX 8100.
The good: Nice Camera<br><br>Auto Flash<br><br>WMA Song/Ring tone Player<br><br>Small Form Factor<br><br>No bulky external antenna<br><br>Easy to read external display<br><br>External WMA controls<br><br>Light for Taking Videos<br><br>Unlimited or MMS Video taking<br><br>Expandable Memory (Micro SD)<br><br>Unique dialing fonts (animated)<br><br>Plastic covers for all the plug ins (charger, ear piece, memory)<br><br>External Stereo Speakers for Songs, Ringers, Sounds, and Speaker Phone<p/>The bad: Battery Life is So-So<br><br>External buttons pressed very easily, I'm always having my MP3 turning on because the button accidentally gets pressed<br><br>No "Button Lock" feature<br><br>Phone supports MP3's, but doesn't offer it.<br><br>No Vibe and Ring for Alarm<br><br>Slow Camera start up.<p/>Summary: I upgraded from my LG 7000, which was a great phone.<br>But even though its years old, it still seems to be better at a few things than this.<br><br>I really like the 1.3MP camera, and it has a nice flash, but no "Night Mode"<br><br>The video camera is very nice as well, you can take very large videos and save them on your computer.<br><br>I had to choose between this phone and the LG 8300, having been with LG for most of my Cell Phone usage, I actually passed them down.<br><br>From what I've read and used, the Samsung was the way to go.<br><br>Speaker phone is great quality, just don't turn it up to loud when you have it open, or the person your talking to will get to talk to themselves.<br><br>All and All this is a great phone.<br>And since I only paid $70 for it on a one year contract with Verizon, I can't complain.<br>
The good: Very slim, and light, and all the basic feature you need in a cell phone, along with bluetooth compatibility, and speakerphone, and a video camera in addition to a regular camera<p/>The bad: Battery life is not great, it gets 2-2.5 hours talktime, but that is the sacrifice for such a small phone, and also I would have like a feature for ringing and vibrating for an incoming call that my old phone, it was quite convenient<p/>Summary: Overall this phone is great, since all I use it for is basic things, like calling and text messaging. Except for some minor things like lack of ringing and vibrating simultaneously for an incoming call, I would have preferred a longer battery life, but I knew about its short battery before I bought it. Other than that its great, it's small, light, and has plenty of features
The good: Connectivity; Very good processor; Overall 9/10<p/>The bad: No radio.<p/>Summary: Fast and complete sumbean 6 3rd edition. Most types of connections (EDGE, Bluetooth, IR, 3G, Data cable USB, etc); Good sound. Very good screen. Camera 2.0 500% better than N70';Usability 5*; Adaptability of shortcuts. Superb with Tomtom NAvigator 6.0
The good: This phone was one of the first 3G phones offered by Cingular. Many of the options it has like the tilt camera and video makes it easy to go hands free while in use. The "general mode" with the video would record over 2 hours and would go longer with availible SDmini memory cards. I have found the battery life to be good going 2 days without charge with heavy use. <p/>The bad: I would say size, comparared to other phones it's a bit bulky. <p/>Summary: overall an excellent phone if you can find one now. They were only offered for a short time. If sending MMS text,video,pictures,audio is your thing, you will love this phone.
The good: Great look, web browsing is easy, the buttons are big and not small to where you accidently push another button, small and descrete, battery life is long.<p/>The bad: A little slow going from the background to folders on the phone, sound quality is that great for ringtones, screen is a little small but do-able.<p/>Summary: From my experience with my phone, I find it to be a good phone it is nice and small and fits almost anywhere, and is great to go anywhere. I would recomend this phone to anyone and everyone. This is an excellent phone for just everyday use.
The good: Compatible with EDGE Network, packed with features, brilliant screen<p/>The bad: Small screen, keys a little small<p/>Summary: RIZR is a great little phone packed with features. Almost everything you can think of is on this phone. But the keys and screen are a bit small. Also there is very little accessories made for it yet.
The good: Cool phone (chicks dig it), pix are good, video is good, qwerty keyboard is nice once you get the hang of it.<p/>The bad: "p" button hard to hit, internal memory low for most internet navigation, you must get more memory via micro flashcard (2GB) if you want to store videos, must have compatible data cable with drivers to sync to pc.<p/>Summary: I wish I would have spent the 50 bucks on the data cable and software, I would be using my phne as a modem now and I would shut down my dsl, (I work nights so I have unlimited mins...)
The good: Great<p/>The bad: Great<p/>Summary: Its a great phone...just a bit more in themes and the camera could have made it the best seller....overall great...hope my views are taken into consideration
The good: Great reception this phone works great in hard to receive reception areas, and it has a loud speaker! <p/>The bad: It's easy to break the hinge when droping it with it open<p/>Summary: This phone works great I wouldn't have another phone if someone gave me one and paid for my service. It would be my luck I'd get something junk. The receiption is great. The speaker is loud I can hear this phone in the noisy bar when other's are holding their hand over their other ear and racing for the door. Other than the week hinge and from my wife dropping her's when it was open breaking it I'd say this phone is great. Its our 3rd phone to own and we love it. I am looking to buy a couple more from ebay to have around just incase my wife drops another! I've had to hand my phone to a friend more than once so he could make a call because his motorola T180 could't call out. My wife has to loan her phone to her sister in the hosptial break room because her motorola V262 won't call out!
The good: great size, fits in all thoose little places where others don't, also color is glamorous.<p/>The bad: the battery life could be better, it tends to give out before i do<p/>Summary: overall i've been nothing but pleased with my little pink toy!
The good: The fact that i have a phone is a good thing,it hold battery charging very well I can go one to two days with out charging my phone.I like the fact that it has a slid show as a screen saver, an it has an alarm clock to wake me up for class everyday.And i really like that it has a speaker phone.<p/>The bad: The thing about this phone is that it's basic, i understand that it's not a camara but you can't even download ringtones on it, and dosn't even have a display screen.I like the fact of the phone having a speaker but when i go to use it, it seems not to work or no one is able to hear me well.<p/>Summary: I have had my phone for nine months, it has held up and is still working it has a speaker phone that produces sound very well but is unable to relay the sound back as well. This phone does very well with holding it battery charge.One thing about this pone is that its not a camera phone, but even though it's not a camera phone it does't even consist of a display screen. I feel that every phone should be able to get ringtones.
