The good: I really like the Motorola Z6M, it has all of the features I like plus the call clarity and handling are both top notch. The MP3 player works well for being a phone (if you want an MP3 player buy a MP3 player). The controls are well laid out. The slide feature is smooth and it seems very sturdy.<p/>The bad: Not much bad I can say about it. I am on my second one now in less than 2 months, but not to the fault of the phone. I damaged my other one canoeing. The 1 2 3 buttons are hard for my fat thumb to find right up near the slide, but this is minor to me. No real gripes from me. I am a Motorola fan, always have been. Oh, one thing that I do not like is the fact that it only supports 2 GB microSD cards, 4 would be much better.<p/>Summary: Good phone, works well, needs to be able to handle 4GB cards.
The good: Very sturdy, excellent signal strength, call quality, <p/>The bad: Battery life...speakerphone<p/>Summary: I really like this phone, I must have just got a good one cause my call quality through the earpiece is loud and clear i never have a problem hearing the other person..every review that ive read has had a issue with call quality but I really dont know why...battery life is bad but really no worse than my friends motorola rokr, mp3 songs dont sound good on high cause its very distorted...but ringtones sound good, signal strength is excellent its just as good or better than my old motorola krzr, if you are a heavy texter like me you should not have a problem with this phone cause texting is a breeze its easier than most phones ive used, bluetooth is nice and clear but there is not enough volume then again it could just be my bluetooth...I've also heard that the phone always crashes and resets when you edit the contacts...but I have edited like crazy just tryin to make it reset but has failed to do so but like I said I must have got one of the good ones so mine is probably not going back...but you will just have to try it and see for yourself but I hope you get a good one like I did
The good: Looks good, big clear screen, front buttons are useful. <p/>The bad: Gets hot, freezes (sometimes), drops calls, battery sometimes drains easily,no flash on camera.<p/>Summary: Good phone over all to txt on. But no really a good phone to talk on for a long period of time.
The good: Easy access to internet, nice keypads, touch screen, good quality of camera and plenty of lot more, easy to understand how it work<p/>The bad: A bit heavy and poor styling<p/>Summary: This phone is the best of Sony Ericsson, strongly recomend to people that like to take pictures, and business men.
The good: 4GB as an Ipod nano, nice speaker to listen music, unique slide phone control pad, dont need SIM card to start the phone.<br><p/>The bad: load really slow to get in Gallery,a little heavy.<p/>Summary: I love this music phone so much becasue i usually have a Sony Ericsson Z750a Grey and an ipod with me when im heading out, that is not light at all, but with this phone, my pant wasnt sagging anymore.
The good: Service is always available<p/>The bad: Gets expensive, customer support folks don't speak English<p/>Summary: I had a Nokia 1600. It's pretty basic, but it does the job. Net10 is very reliable in Oklahoma City. I did have to call customer service once when an airtime card didn't activate correctly. It did take a while, but I got my minutes and I had zero problems from then on. Just don't buy airtime after 10 PM!
The good: Great coverage, friendly customer service, issues quickly resolved. <p/>The bad: It's a little pricey but its worth it.<p/>Summary: It's a great service. I've never had a dropped call and customer service is great. All my friends are on it and so it makes the IN unlimited texting worth it. I recommend it to anyone.
The good: camera is good.(pix turn out ok better then other phones) Everything is GREAT!<p/>The bad: Volume is not loud. <p/>Summary: Joystick was alright for me. <br>It work fine for me for 2 years lol xD. Got in in 2006 to 2008 of may. its still work fine if i need it.<br>The memory stick was nice and easy to use.(transfer stuff) <br><br>This phone was the best and i still LOVE it.
The good: Everything!! looks, camera, music player i was amazed as to how many features this phone has<p/>The bad: Battery life, had sever mechanical problems<p/>Summary: I had this phone for 15 months and had absolutly no problems with it, none what so ever. Then one day the "END" botton, the camera, and the speaker just would not work. i could not turn my phone on or off or use the camera and speaker so i had to get a new one but other than that one inncident i love this phone and would reccomend it to anybody and everybody. its a great buy.
The good: Signal Strength:<br>I get signal in places where my friends on Sprint, Cingular, and Verizon get nothing. I get service in elevators, at the lake, way out in the woods while hunting, in the city and in rural places. I have used Alltel for the last 5 years and have had less than 10 dropped calls over that time period. I have traveled to Minnesota, New York, Tennessee, Florida by road and never had a place where I got no signal.<br><br>Plans:<br>MyCircle (you select 5, 10, or 20 numbers which a<p/>The bad: The selection of phones that use a SIM card is small, meaning that you can't use most of their phones when traveling internationally. <p/>Summary: Alltel beats all other providers at signal strength, plans, and pricing. If you purchase a plan that actually has enough minutes in the first place and you pay your bills when they are due, you will have an excellent experience with Alltel. Most of the negative reviews below talk about terrible customer service and bill collections, but if you read carefully you will see that these "service issues" stem from inability to choose the proper plan or failure to pay bills on time. One final thought: the provider is only as good as the phone you buy...if you buy a $0.99 phone, you'll have a $0.99 experience, but if you get something middle of the road and up, it'll be great.
The good: Nice phone, surprising light and compact. A lot of features. The sliders are well constructed. I previously owned a Motorolla KRZR and was used to a small/light phone. The qwerty keyboard is very easy to use. The layout is simple. Transferring data to and from PC is simple although I purchased an additional program instead of using the free one that comes with the phone. The program that comes with the phone only allows you to transfer contacts at the top level of Outlook. I have multiple addre<p/>The bad: Although you can set ringtones to specific contacts, you cannot use your own ringtones for alerts such as when a text messages arrives or you have voicemail. You must use the phones internal alterts.<br><br>The biggest issue I have with this phone is that I am no longer able to get service inside my house. I had no issues using the KRZR inside my home, but this phone's internal antenna just isn't strong enough. I would proceed with caution if you rely soley on your cell phone for all calls. You'<p/>Summary: The phone is nice with a lot of features and I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys texting and wants a full keyboard.
The good: Easy to use. Love the touch screen, texting is great especially since I have nails and it was pain with the manual qwerty keyboards.<p/>The bad: I thought the web browsing could be simplified. If you text a long message I don't know how you get to the first screen to make corrections. (Maybe I should read the manual Heehee) <p/>Summary: It's sleek and so easy to use. The sound quality and reception is great. I don't need to bring my camera with me I think this phone takes a better picture. Even the video quality is good. I traded in the Chocolate crap phone and absolutely love this one!
The good: Clear display, amenable buttons, handsfree socket, bluetooth, 3 day standby time on battery.<p/>The bad: Calls last caller at random, built-in camera is worthless.<p/>Summary: Upgraded the phone from the 6000 series which had miserable button sensitivity. Found the built-in camera takes lousy pictures. Also found phone will call the last person called at random at any time. Bad, very bad. Especially while driving. Speakerphone feature very useful. I am a technician who sometimes spends 2 hours plus using my fingers on a computer while talking with the client: connections always held, even with Europe and battery remains robust. A plus. But you must turn the phone completely off while mobile or it calls people on its own.
The good: OUTSTANDING customer care!! BRAVO! <br>Great Coverage!<br>Cool phones!<br>GSM Technology!<br>And AGAIN Terrific customer care!<br>Hotsp@Hme Service<br><p/>The bad: Quite a few kiddy phones.<br>About 3 dropped calls per month.<br>Not all rate plans come with FREE Nights/We.En.<br>Poor mobile phone insurance...<br><p/>Summary: T-Mobile USA is a great company! I have been with them for 15 months and I am VERY pleased! I love my phone(Sams. T519), I love my coverage, and I ADORE my CC agents!! They are like my 2nd family. I have had at&t and Sprint and T-Mobile is WAAAY better than both! Although I would prefer Verizon Wireless. However, I dont like the insurance policys and some of the phones. Like depending on how fancy your phone is, you will pay either 70$ or 110$ to have it exchanged if you have insurance. Verizon however, makes you pay only 50$ for any phone you have insured. Also, unless your paying $79.99 for a new phone w/ service, your gonna be looking at a little "kiddy" phone. Like the Sams. T639- I would consider a Kiddy phone. The Nokia 6301-I would consider I nice mature' phone. But overall T-Mobile is a great company to be with, and if your looking for good coverage, cheap plans, and satisfaction, T-Mobile USA is the way to go!! :) <br><br>Any Questions? Feel free to IM me on AIM! My screen name is "EHwurger"
The good: Camera, touch screen, battery life surprisinglygood<p/>The bad: No internet in US. one word.....FINGERPRINTS!!!!<p/>Summary: I bought this phone unlocked and am currently using it on the att network. the camera is great only if the correct settings are put into play. the 120 FPS suck because it lowers the quality of the video and dims the lighting. also being an unlocked phone, the internet is no use to me in the US.
The good: Small, good sound quality, holds a decent charge<p/>The bad: Cheap, bad materials, broke easily<p/>Summary: Phone developed cracks in hinge between top and bottom after only 4 months of regular use. Cracks have continued to spread so now halves are almost apart and phone is totally wrecked. Customer services has blamed me insisting I dropped it, which I didn't.
The good: Attractive plan pricing, rewards to retain customers, relatively knowledgeable employees, free incoming text, convenient store locations<p/>The bad: Marginal signal strength in small rural areas, phone selection & pricing somewhat lacking<p/>Summary: If you have had trouble with service issues, then try the Plymouth store and talk to Damian or Gabrielle; both of them have been there for several years and know their stuff. You can also get discounted deals on activation fees, companion lines, calling features, etc, by talking to the retentions department at headquarters.
The good: Great Price, Good layout, Great for texting. Easy to use.<p/>The bad: Front display doesent have the 5 way kep pad anymore.<p/>Summary: I have had this phone for a little while Verizon gave me this phone for free since my env broke 4 times because of problems with the phones software or just other things like buttons didnt work. This phone is 10x better then the privous. If you want a cheaper phone that is great for texting and is relible its for you. It also has the best battery in a phone i have ever had. I have had it for 12 days and it still has 2 bars of battery and i do leave it on at night.
The good: I've only had about 3 dropped calls in the past year, GREAT customer SUPPORT, I just got off the phone with 611 Support, and waited on hold for 32 seconds, according to my watch timer (I timed it) and the associate was very helpful and nice. Great Service and Great prices. Highly Recommend.<p/>The bad: Because it is a small company, they do not have as good service out west.<p/>Summary: Overall, if you are in the East and Midwest, I highly recommend this company. I actually ENJOY going into their stores and looking at new phones. They never push anything. Five Stars out of Five.
The good: Stylish and simple to use<p/>The bad: Too small for some with large hands<p/>Summary: The Nokia 1100 is a great entry level phone. It is inexpensive and easy to carry. A no frills but dependable and reliable unit, it has long talk time and very long standby time. It is clear and loud.
