P.S. I still have not received my return amkount charged back to my7 credit card ... very bad experience | 01 star

great product and nice and thin.
Pros -Thin easy to usekickstand works wellall ports line up except charger port is slightly off see below.the lip on the glass side of the phone is not too thick yet thick enough to set on a flat surface face down without scratching glass.Cons -Kickstand sometimes opens too far at first but never when sitting on a table.the USB charging port had to be modified slightly as it was putting pressure on the connected charger cable. | 34 stars

Works as expected/advertised
Not much more to say than it does what it said it would. No fuss no hassles. | 45 stars

Good Phone
I got this phone as an upgrade from the V300. It is definitly a cooler phone to have in your hand, but I'm not so sure about it's sturdiness. The V300 could be thrown against the wall (which my little toddler did on occasion!) and it would keep working. The Razr on the other hand switchs off as a result of a simple fall!That said, it is a nice phone. I've had no problems with calls being dropped or poor receiption. It has lots of added features, but most I really don't use.So, all in all it is an excellent day to day phone .... just keep it out of the hands of little toddlers! | 23 stars

Good Bluetooth Headset
I purchased this unit primarily to take advantage of the MP3 player function in my new LG Shine Phone.As some of the other raters have mentioned, the fit behind the ears is a bit snug, but it is not as painful as some have described. It sits well on the neck and does not catch on my collar or when I lie down in my hammock. The one aspect that I find challenging is knowing when the unit is fully turned off to avoid draining the battery.It has very clear sound, in fact I hear much more to the recordings than I do playing them through the computer speakers. | 34 stars

Could be Better
the case is decent but lacks the ability to not jack up your belt torning it up with everytime you clip it on......... | 12 stars

H700 works great!
i compared the H500 the HS850 and the H700. I read all the reviews and landed on the H700. No problems what so ever, works great everytime, great voice recognition calling. i wear glasses and fits on my ear comfortably with my glasses. no problems with sound quality both incoming or outgoing. Mic does not press aginst cheek as some review stated. | 45 stars

Excellent headset at a great price
I drive a full-size diesel van with quite a bit of cabin noise, so any headset I've tried before this one never worked out; the background noise was always so bad that whoever I was talking to was driven crazy.That is NOT the case with this headset. It's so clear, people don't even notice I'm using a headset.Connection to my Blackberry is quick and works every time. It might not be as sexy or compact as the Jawbone or other models, but it's very comfortable and you can wear it all day without an issue and without worrying about it falling out. It fits very securely.I WOULD have preferred a charging connection that was a bit more universal, like the one my Blackberry uses. So - don't lose the cord. A case would have been nice too, but that's not a big deal. I still almost gave it 5 stars simply because it performs extremely well at what it was designed to do.All in all - well built, comfortable, excellent sound, and dirt-cheap. I paid $36 for mine, and after using it for a while, there isn't a single shortcoming that could justify spending twice as much on a Jawbone. Nothing against the Jawbone; this is simply a very good headset at an excellent price. | 34 stars

Carrying case
Not a bad little carrying case, the clip on the back is really too small to attach to a visor. The strap over the top keeps the bluetooth in place. | 34 stars

Works great (but it cannot handle outside)
I really love this product, works as described, comfortable, easy to use. The noise reduction is awesome, people cannot tell if you're in your car, even a running faucet remains unheard. Only thing to note (and it's kind of a biggie if you need this): you almost cannot use it outside, even walking outside or standing in the slightest breeze creates terrible wind noise on the other end of the line. Shielding it with your hand from the wind provides some relief but on a conference call, people will still ask you to mute yourself. | 34 stars

Particularly useful for phones in custom cases
I have SonyEricsson W800i with a custom silicone soft skin case (brand Pivot). The case added enough thickness to the phone so that it would not fit in the car holder (HCH-61) designed for the W800i. I needed a different solution.This universal holder HCH-60 is flexible enough in which my phone with the case fits. The arms you see is actually a single spring-loaded piece that rotates at the middle and clips onto the side of the phone (e.g. top-left and bottom-right, or vice-versa). Ends of the arms are rubberized and holds the phone well. It does not hold the phone from the top, but with the arms activated (clipping from the sides) the phone stays in place firmly without issues. The HCH-60 holder also does NOT have the little hole in the back that's used for external antenna plug (see HCH-61, which does). But that feature is not important to me.Overall, the holder serves its purpose and is more accomodating if you use you phone with a custom case. | 34 stars

Disappointing software, non-standard USB data cable
Software is very limited/limiting and doesn't work very well. At all. I only really wanted this in order to type in phone contacts from my last phone rather than do it all on the phone itself, but, frankly, it's not even really up to that task, much less anything more demanding - like synchronising.The USB cable has a big fat dongle on it and is a device in it's own right - so cannot be used with other drivers/software that "talks" to a V3 (or other Motorola phones with the same data interface) directly. Extremely disappointed with this purchase.My advice would be to buy a standard USB->5 pin mini-USB cable anywhere for $5-$10 and use freely-available drivers and software for wallpaper/ringtones/volume gain/skins/pictures uploading/downloading instead.It only gets one star because there's not a selection for "zero". I'd like my money back because it's not fit for the purpose for which it was intended, but fat chance of that. | 01 star

Have phone for a year.
I had this phone for almost a while and I thought it was real cool.But then again it this was my first cell and I did not know any better. This phone is just a phone with no features at all. It is rock solid and can get dropped hundreds of times. I would stay away from it because NET10 now offers the W375 which looks like the RAZR. | 23 stars

Great Quality and a perfect fit!
This is a great product, The phone fits in it perfectly. I like how it ratchets side to side, it makes it a lot more comfortable when sitting down to ratchet the phone sideways. It is also lightweight, you can hardly tell it is there. I highly recommend this holster for your V600. | 45 stars

Samsung WEP200 Bluetooth Earpiece
I like the product, however none of the supplied ear piece adapters fit my ear. The earpiece would continually fall out regardless of how I positioned the adapters. I ended up using a Jabra ear gel from an old ear piece I had. It fits the Samsung unit but it has to be positioned just right so it doesn't block the sound from the speaker. If set up just right it seems to work alright, but I certainly wouldn't buy another one. The function is good, but the fit is terrible. | 12 stars

Good fit, clear sound...what else can you ask for
At first I was skeptical becuase of the Logitech brand. I associate it with mostly computer peripherals (mice, keyboards etc.). I figured, what would they know about building bluetooth headsets. Then I read some of the reviews and went ahead and bought it. Before this, I tried a several other bluetooth headsets that I either bought and returned, or my friends had. I have to say that this one fits the bill for me.Here's the good:1. The fit of this headset is very secure. It stays in place and doesn't hurt the ear. I have worn it for over two hours at a stretch. The earphone speaker feels very comfortable with a sponge jacket (and the headset comes with a couple of spares too). I have tried the motorola HS-820 headset and while that was a good headset overall, it always felt like it was going to fall off my ear. So I went and returned it.2. The phone is very easy to setup and charges fairly quickly. I was able to pair it up with my phone without any problems. The battery life of this phone is excellent (with 10 days of standby time and 7 hours of talk time).3. The voice quality of this phone is unbeatable. I have tried my friends Jabra 250 and my earlier Motorola...the sound quality on this one is superior to both. The other side is always able to hear me clearly and I am able hear them clearly too. There is no static, unless I go greater than 10 feet away from my phone. I guess the clarity is because of the "windstop" technology, but honestly, I don't care how they do it...it ends up sounding pretty good.4. You can't beat the price. At $40 (or so), it is less expensive than most headsets with similar features, on the market.Here's the bad (or "nice to haves"):1. This is somewhat heavier than the other headsets I have tried, but like I said earlier, I have never had a problem keeping it on for long hours because of the secure and very comfortable fit.2. It does not look as nice the motorolas, but hey I would rather have a headset that does not feel like it going fall off any moment.3. I have setup different ringtones for different people in my contacts list. This headset does not support these ringtones. It always play the same ringtone, not matter what. This is again, a nice to have feature. You would pay substantially more on another phone with a feature like this.All-in-all, this one of the best headsets I have found at a very reasonable price. I must say I am impressed with the overall line of Logitech products. They seem to produce some high-quality stuff. | 45 stars

Does the job
Nothing too fancy or special about it. Was a must buy due to state driving laws. The fold up portion of the unit saves a lot of battery. Solid, dependable and not too dorky looking. All I was looking for in a unit. | 34 stars

Great Cover
This cover is very good , it's stylish and the phone from getting scratches and in my case when i had dropped a few times and the phone just bounces and leaves no marks or scratches. although, it covers the volume strip , but 90 % of people that i knew or know that has this phone don't even use the volume strip. I would definitly recommend this cover to anyone who has a Dash. | 34 stars

Nice Item
I purchased this headset and have had it for a few days now. Overall, in stereo mode the sound quality is very nice, and the range is wonderful. I can almost walk everywhere in my house and get audio on the adapter that came with the system. If your looking for a wireless headset to use for voice communications, such as Ventilo or Teamspeak, I wouldn't necessarily suggest this one. The built in voice functionality is sub-par for VoIP communications, but excellent for phone communications. It's still an excellent headset, and wireless is a god sent, but I am still using a wired mic for best quality of sound. If you have extensive knowledge of bluetooth, I believe there is a way you can rewrite the stacks to get CD quality sound in voice communications mode. However, I use a Logitech DiNovo bluetooth desktop and it causes extensive lag in communications mode when hooked upto my existing bluetooth adapter. | 34 stars

cheap
Pretty cheap feeling headphones but worth it for the money if they work for your phone, since they're 2.5mm. However they did not work with my palm centro. And it wasn't worth the 4 or 5 bucks to send them back, so that was a waste. | 12 stars

WOW, thats all I can say!!!!
The Motorola T820 headset has honestly blown me away! The headset has great sound in true stereo (make sure your device is A2DP compliant before you whine about crappy sound) and is complimented by deep bass and excellent sounding treble. The headset was a cinch to pair with ALL of my devices that I have tried pairing which includes my Verizon XV6700 phone, my Dell 9700 laptop, my desktop computer with an AZIO USB bluetooth stick, and my PS3. ALL devices paired flawlessly and work well with the device correctly the first time with NO need to fix any problems. This has by far been one of the best purchases I have made as far as headphones are concerned because the BT headset does everything that it says it will do correctly the first time. I mostly keep the headset paired with my Desktop computer because I work late at night and when I use my computer I like to turn up the volume but will move about my home office. I didn't want to disturb my wife as she slept so I invested in these headphones. One advantage I have found to this set is that I can have it paired to my computer AND it will still maintain pairing to my Verizon XV6700 phone, which is a great advantage to me because if I am cranking out a homework assignment and get a call, I may not hear it right away. With this headset it will pause my music and let me know the number of the caller and who it is if I have that information available. The battery life is about 15 hours of use that I have seen (listening to music) and standby time is ridiculous. This headset even controls Microsoft Windows Media Player natively from the headset without any need for configuration. The headset comes with a nice carrying bag a charging cable, a USB cable, and even a regular "male to male" headphone cord for when the batteries are depleted. This is definitely a great choice for anyone looking for a decent pair of headphones on the Bluetooth platform. | 45 stars

Can life get any better!!!???!!!
Buying this product COMPLETELY changed my life, for the BETTER!! My wife can NO LONGER call me at work and say, "YOUR CELL PHONE MUST BE DEAD, WHY DIDN'T YOU ANSWER IT!!!" "I'm sorry, honey,I forgot my charger at home.... I'm Sorry." After purchasing an additional charger, my reply is, "I WAS BUSY. I AM AT WORK, THE SAME AS YOU. NOW BE GONE UNLESS YOU HAVE SOMETHING WORTHWHILE TO SAY."BOW DOWN BEFORE THE MIGHTY MOTOROLA MINI USB TRAVEL CHARGER FOR MOTOROLA PHONES; BEHOLD IN ITS UNMERCIFUL POWER AND QUAKE IN YOUR SHOES OR ELSE IT WILL PLUG ITSELF INTO 'YOUR' USB PORT, and we wouldn't want that would we. | 45 stars

Very disappointed
I purchased this phone a little more than a week ago. Once I finally received the phone I was quite disappointed. I charged as the recommendations say and then turned the phone on. To my suprise i was in analog roam at my apartment in downtown Pittsburgh where my Samsung A-460 has a decent digital reception. So, I took it to the Sprint store where they reprogrammed it. Sadly, the reception still wasnt any better than my Samsung. So, I called a friend to test the phone out, albeit good clear reception, but a horrible feedback from the speaker phone. Plus the phone book is a pain in the butt to get to. I love my Samsung in the fact i just have to hit the scroll down key to scroll my address book. Good luck if you choose this phone. | 01 star

Nice fit
Seamless fit with the Samsung Galaxy Note. All buttons match up perfectly. Light weight, not bulky at all -- really is like a second skin. Would highly recommend. | 45 stars

Great headset!!! light and stays in.
I have had one of these for about 4 years, it wore out and I tried others; none of the others will stay put like the Plantronics 640 does!others have some new features but they keep falling out of my ear. this one is so nice and light and the silicone earbud is comfortable. | 45 stars

Traval Charger
Great for charging on the go. Retractable cable makes it easy to keep up with, and is good for storage. The only knock is that it has to be inserted in a certain direction in order to work well. | 34 stars

What a piece of CRAP
I agree!! This phone is a WASTE! I don't use it during the day because I'm at work, and when I go to make a phone call...I HAVE NO BATTERY!!! Can someone expalin this to me?? I mean seriously...the static is unbearable, and I have to hold the phone in a certain position to hear out of it even though the earpiece volume is set on the max. I also quite frequently pick up other peoples conversations on my phone..in the middle of my own conversation!!! I get signal like...NOWHERE with this piece of crap. TOTALLY NOT WORTH THE AGGRAVATION!! | 01 star

Great Toy
Great phone quality, the speaker phone works very good, I have my phone service with TMobile. The best part about this phone is its size and combination features of PDA, web browsing and phone service.Forget about the camera portion of this phone, as far as I am concern, this Palm would have been better product w/o this feature. Where is the voice activation? The FM radio Module? The MP3 portion of it great ?with a sd card?, the memory could be double. You?ll need to purchase some good applications for this device; however the ones given are good enough. As for web browsing, and email, receiving and sending emails work good, the browser are a bit slow, depending on where you?re.Overall, this is a very good product if you?re looking for an almost all in one, I change my phones about every 6 mths, I might hold on to this one a little longer. | 34 stars

replaced 4 times with cingular
I have had the phone for about 7 months, I love many of the features, the colors, camera, blue tooth for my car and the size of the phone.But Ive had so many dropped calls and calls that don't go through, that they have replaced it 4 times -Now cingular will replace this phone for a motorola v551 and they are no longer carrying the phone because of this known problem. The case also scratches easily. hopefully the v551 will be better.Dropped calls are frequent! | 12 stars

Dont walk away
dont plan on walking very far from your phone.it has a range of maybe 10 feet. The button you push to connect is hard to push. It feel like you are jamming it into your ear just to turn in on. | 23 stars

Attention Grabber
Well...Let me start out by saying this phone is freakin' cool. I love the Design, but who doesn't. I sell T-mobile phones and I love using my pohne as a selling point it has never dropped a call the video plaback is pretty nice at 30fps, even has video recording, exclusive to t-mobile. the battery life rocks and the bluetooth is even cooler. the only downside is the muffled earpiece i often find myself asking...what?. i also dont like the indepth menus on the phone, i think they put a little to much extra menus in changing simple tasks like switching your ringer or switching your wallpaper more difficult than other phones. over all i love it and got what i expected. an awsome phone and great service too.Good luckB.Pollock | 34 stars

This is the one to get
I bought my Plantronics 510 after having tried a similarly priced Motorola bluetooth headset. I returned the Moto, which had the inferior design of sitting outside the ear; this type will never have sufficient volume, don't bother with it. The best thing about the Plantronics 510: it comes with three interchangeable earbuds so you can custom fit it to your particular ear size for maximum comfort. The sound is so good with the 510 that callers often don't know you're even on a handsfree. The only gripe I can find is the on/off control is too close to the volume control and it's easy to confuse the two when wearing the unit. Beyond that, this is the one! | 34 stars

Sony Ericsson Needs to Fix the Walkman Audio Hiss Problem
Great price on a great phone if you get the contract with Cingular. However, don't think you'll be able to ditch your dedicated mp3 player. SE has been very slow to address an audio hiss issue (caused by a firmware update) with the Walkman player on this phone, and it's not even clear they ever intend to fix it for this product. A great chance for SE to hit it out of the park with an amazing all-in-one device, but this audio problem on a WALKMAN-branded phone is ridiculous. And yes, I have the latest firmware. It fixed the Acura handsfree link problem, but audio is still sub-par. | 01 star

Excellent headset.
Works great!! Comfortable to wear. Very easy to pair, fantastic sound quality, controls simple and easy to use. The only limitations I have found are in the equiptment they are paired with. | 45 stars

Sound is good, listener has problems
This is my first bluetooth and based on the amazon reviews, it was really the best compared to the Motorola units. I can hear beautifully with the headset and it is very comfortable, but the person on the other side has a different story. It is a bit staticy, and if I am leaving someone a voice mail message, they cannot always understand me. The static problem may be me, but I can't figure out how to correct it. I have moved the microphone in every direction imagineable, and I think the issue may be because it is too close to my mouth. | 23 stars

Battery doesn't fit my phone
The batteries I purchased from Eforcity are not the right batteries for my cell phone. I'm not returning them because it will cost me more to send them back than it cost to buy them in the first place. Since they didn't send me the right batteries the first time, why would I think they would send me the right ones the next time? | 01 star

Doesn't stick to my car
Just be forewarned: this doesn't seem to stick to some car dashboards. I drive a Hyandai Elantra 2001 and it wouldn't stick so it'll just be a piece of junk in the closet now. Maybe if I put some tape on the dash and then attach it to the tape it would work, but that seems awkward. I tried the sticky putty stuff and that doesn't stick to my car either. | 12 stars

Useless after six months
I'll concentrate on the reasons why the Jabra has been useless to me after just a few months, but first I'll mention that I really liked the headset when it was still working ok - small, stylish, good quality. It has a few design flaws though, especially the stylish stand - it is difficult to hook it up, you have to fumble; and the tiny buttons (pairing button is only for people with fingernails).The major weakness is the little ear piece. When you switch the side from time to time, you have to pull it off and it becomes unusable after a while because the claw like attachment widens - then it simply falls off and won't stay in place anymore.To make matters worse, mine also doesn't pair anymore, no matter what device I try. It has become useless. | 12 stars

hands free speaker
With the new law I was looking for something easy for in the car that was not price two high. I checked out other reviews & this was sure the one. This was easy to set up and use. I am very happy with the sound quality.It works great with my blackberry pearl. We are not really high techpeople so we were pleased with how easy it is to use. I like it betterthan an ear piece style for hands free use. This just clips to the visor and when it needs a charge it uses the same one as our phone so that was an unexpected perk, did not need to mess with two chargers. So over all very pleased with unit. | 45 stars

If you cant wait for the N95...
...then this is probably your best buy. I looked at the N93 - and the size put me off. By picking the N80, you miss the 30fps video recording (you get 15fps instead) - but you get one of the best phones out there in an appealing form factor. I upgraded from an overused 6600 to the N80 - and the improvements in the OS, form factor, performance and quality were all impressive.Pluses:- Wifi works great.- The web browser shipped with the phone is one of the best Ive seen on mobile devices.- Very intuitive user interface, what you'd expect from Nokia.- Good camera, with fairly extensive settings (including white balance)- Ships with a virus scanner.- Supports TLS/SSL on IMAP email accounts. The 6600 didn't, and was a major issue for me.Minuses:- Lifeblog is proprietary and doesnt work out-of-the-box with blogger or wordpress.- Battery life is anything but impressive. I use both voice and data pretty extensively (1500+ mins/month) and need to charge the phone everyday.[...] | 45 stars

Could be MUCH better!
When I first received the product, I didn't have too much trouble putting the protector on and removing the bubbles. The case snapped on easily and I was happy.About 3 days later, I began to notice scuffs on the protector. After numerous attempts to remove them (I think they are just some junk stuck to the protector), I gave up.In addition, if you keep your iPhone in your pocket, then this may not work for you. The case REALLY likes to absorb the lint from your pocket and safeguard it as well. You may be thinking: "I can just clean it out every few days!" Good luck with that, I spent about 30 minutes removing what seemed like two pieces of plastic bonded with super glue. | 23 stars

Surprised - but very positively so.
I have gone through several Bluetooth earpieces for my Treo 650 in the past year and this one has ended up as my favorite. When I first started, I bought one and traded it in because I was dissatisfied which the first few. Then I kept one out of frustration rather than satisfaction and lived with it for several month until I lost it. After a few months without one at all I decide to get another. I spent the money on one that looked sexy and was highly rated. But again, the sound quality wasn't satisfactory. When I saw ad on Amazon for the iTech clip at such a low price I decided to give it a try as a backup and am happier with it that any other. It isn't sleek and sexy and discrete, but actually seems more practical than the standard design. I imagine that having the mic clipped to my shirt right below my voice works better than over on my ear especially with wind or car noise. And the clip design makes it easier to not lose. | 45 stars

Sidekick and Sidekick II Screen Protectors
These are not good. I purchased them for my Sidekick II, which the description says they are for, but they did not fit on the screen properly. They apparently were made specifically for the Color Sidekick I. These protectors do not fit and should not be marketed to Sidekick II users. I sent mine back. | 01 star

A great phone, while it stays charged.
I've had this phone for about 8 months now. I got it back when it was free, with a new contract. The initial firmware is a botched headache. After I got the old firmware on it (I paid someone to load the original nokia firmware), it works like a charm. Also, AT&T; is great about giving out the unlock codes.What they all say about the battery life is sadly true. I remedy this with a car charged and a USB charger so that it can always be charging. It's a little bit of a pain, but it's a great phone, loud speakers, lots of memory, fast, big keypad. | 34 stars

Works great, less cyborg-looking than the Motorolas
I like this headset because of its small size and great reception. Even though it doesn't have an over-the-ear clasp, it fits perfectly into my ear and never feels loose or in danger of falling out. I use it for Skype, and the range is really good when I'm walking around the apartment. Get a good Bluetooth USB adaptor for your computer if you don't already have Bluetooth installed. (I'm using a Kensington.)The only reason I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is because the multi-function button (which you can see in the product picture) is right where you can inadvertently tap it, and I sometimes do. It's really not that big of a deal because all you'll do is mute your call until you tap it again. Once I'm used to it, I'm sure I won't have that problem anymore. I'm very happy with this headset. | 34 stars

Phone is fine, aftermarket chargers won't work
I have no real issues with the phone. It's annoying that it is impossible to keep clean, inside & out.It has the MP3 player, which sounds decent. It has a nice looking screen (even though I ALWAYS wipe it off.)But aftermarket chargers won't work. I found out this is a common problem. I don't know what they put in their $30 chargers, but the ones I've tried from ebay (2 wall chargers & 3 car chargers) don't work. I know, I know. I could have purchased the $30 version with all I've spent on aftermarket chargers. But that's just lame. | 12 stars

Best Smartphone on the market
OverviewI purchased this Smartphone after 3 months of research. My criterion was that it had to play music via Bluetooth, had to have a windows mobile platform, and had to be comfortable. This phone satisfied all of them for the most part.There are a few cons to the phone, however; with the windows platform it will not be long until applications will come around to extend the functionality and fix problems. I'm a computer programmer and I'm currently working with the mobile platform to develop new programs with Visual Studio, hence the need for the windows platform. I can safely say that in the next couple of years we will be seeing some exciting new technology that will be developed with the new Smartphone and PDA's that run a platform like window mobile.The blackjack is an excellent device to introduce you into the Smartphone/PDA universe. With Blackjacks features for Email (3 different options to receive email w/ this phone), Instant Messaging, SMS/MMS, ActiveSync & MP3 player capability it's my opinion that the Blackjack is on par or surpasses any blackberry.Con Brief & Fixes1) Music plays on the speakerphone if you have no ear buds.First the music capabilities of the phone is excellent, however; if you do not want the entire world think that "you like big butts" when everyone hears your song "Baby got back" by Sir Mix-A-Lot coming from your Blackjack's speakerphone. I would suggest getting the wired ear buds or a stereo Bluetooth headset. After a little research I found out that if I wanted wireless music from my Blackjack I would have to have a Bluetooth headset that had a feature called Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP) and if I wanted to control the music from a Bluetooth device I would need Audio/Video Remote Control (AVRCP). The Blackjack has both capabilities so all I needed to do is to find a Bluetooth device with the same. I found two that are not big headsets: LG HBS-110 and Sony Ericsson Bluetooth HBH-DS970. I bought the LG HBS-110, I just bought it when I did this review so I can't tell you 411 on it yet but I can say that both devices WILL work with the Blackjack.2) The battery life of the phone is very poorCome to find out the new G3 network from Cingular takes a lot of power to maintain. For a music enthusiast, like myself, I am looking for longevity when it comes to my players batteries. So I did some searching and come across a small little hack with the Blackjack that will turn off that G3 feature so the batteries can last for up to TWO DAYS in normal use. Let me advise you now, if you do not know what you are doing when you are in the settings of the phone. You can seriously damage your saved data on your phone or even lose it completely. So, I advise that you get in, change what you need, and get out. Do not experiment unless you are willing to lose your phones data. On the main screen of the phone type the following: *#1546792*# the admin screen will appear, scroll down to selection "3 Network & Call Settings" and hit OK. Next, scroll down to selection"5 Network Mode" and hit OK. Next, scroll down until you see "GSM" with a black dot next to it. Then, push the soft touch button with the word "Done" on the screen associated to the button. Now exit the Admin Settings by hitting the Home button (the button with a picture of a house on it) and you're finished. In a few seconds you should see the icons on the top of the home screen change. Next to the signal bars you should see a picture of an antenna instead of G3. This little hack should extend the life of your batteries tremendously. Also, by changing the Network Mode you should NOT lose any functionality from the phone, the only change should be the speed at which you send and receive data on the network. If you do experience problems, reset the network mode back to "Auto" by repeating the above steps; then start your troubleshooting of the problem. | 45 stars

Great phone and exceptional deal at Amazon
This phone is easy to navigate with many features. I have hadno technical issues with the V300. Battery life, phone callclarity, and features have lived up to my expectations. Theonly feature missing is that of an automatic time changewhen traveling. | 45 stars

Keep Shopping
I thought it was cool when I got it, but the more I used it, the more I hated it. I've missed countless calls because I couldn't hear it ringing. Navigating the user interface is unnecessarily complicated and slow. Switching ring modes requires you to navigate to the ring styles portion of the menu system, in my opinion, you should be able to change this without opening the phone. Battery life is horrible, if this phone goes into analog mode, you might as well turn it off, because the battery won't last more than a few minutes. I'm considering re-activating my old Kyocera QCP-860 ThinPhone. | 01 star

Good phone but...
Good sleek design, big display, really like the joystick. This phone is really superb but its software sucks. Phone freezes frequently and in many cases you will need to take the battery out to switch it off (because the power switch does not work when it freezes). Another issue is that it won't connect to internet (t-zones in T-Mobile) again without restarting the phone. It appears that the software which controls this phone has some issues. Despite these issues I am very happy with the phone. Like to mention that T-Mobile provides "the best" customer service. | 34 stars

Buyer Beware!! Purchase your Top-Up cards elsewhere!
It thought I was saving time by buying my card online instead of having to go out to the store and get one, but I was WRONG! Don't get me wrong, the phone and cards are great, but be careful if you purchase your Top-Up cards online!! If it takes more than 72 hours between the time you order the card (activated by Amazon at time of purchase/shipping) and the time you receive it, the pin # will "go cold" and it shows up as an invalid pin # when you try to top-up. You won't be able to use it without faxing a bunch of information and a copy of the card to Virgin Mobile Customer Service. I went through this recently and it was a real PAIN! I'll be purchasing my cards at my local store from now on. | 01 star

Great product, great deal
This a terrific car charger. The glowing blue light is so cool at night, and everyone who comes in my car compliments it. When I saw it on Amazon, I returned the overpriced, $30-plus-tax one that I purchased from Cingular. The generic one from Cingular was not made by Motorola; it was ugly, boring, and it didn't seem to charge my Razr as fast. In addition, this charger is espically perfect if you have the black Razr with the black HS850 bluetooth headset like I do because they are like a matching set. Also, when I bought my charger off of Amazon I paid more than double the price that it is available for now, and I still feel like I got a terrific deal. | 45 stars

Not the Greatest
This case is nice and tight, but too tight. Once on I was unable to use any of my buttons to make a call or do anything on the phone. Also, when you put the case on it turned the speakerphone on and you couldn't turn it off unless you took the case off. I now did take a kitchen knife to cut openings for the buttons on the phone so that everything is in working order. Things are good then, but not when you first open it up to put it on. If you are willing to do a little cutting, it is fine. I have the V3c phone. | 12 stars

I was dubious, but it's great.
I've had several gens of the candybar blackberries, 7100 nice but reception/mike was horrendous, 7130 much better, finally nailed it. Was dubious when I had to take a pearl when my 7130 went funky.... but I'll give it the full thumbs up now. Slightly smaller than 7130, which oddly does make a difference, like size decreases give exponential feasibility increases or something. Makes my partner's Treo look like a firstgen cell in comparison. Unobtrustive in yr pocket. The "pearl" trackball is just fine, like it better than roller actually. Reception, mike quality are also good, despite concerns that they were reviewed worse than the 7130. Writing is good too, the suretype continuing to be so durn accurate I sometimes forget to check. And hey, I like having the camera. So, I thought the 7130 was my perfect smartphone, the one that I just stopped thinking about cause it did it all just great.... but actually... I like the Pearl better. If you need bulletproof email, PDA, and phone, this is yr baby. Slightly shorter battery life, but hasn't stranded me yet. | 45 stars

Problems working in LG VX8300
I purchased this battery from AccessoryOne, when charged-it appears to have held the charge, but in a matter of an hour-the phone would show only 1 bar left or shut off on me. I tried discharging the battery completely then charging it full several times, but I kept getting the same results. I also cleaned the contacts with a pencil erase and then with contact cleaner-with no improvement. I purchased another LG OEM battery from the Verizon store in town (which actually is 1100mAh not 1000mAh as AccessoryOne sells) and it worked perfectly-so I have to draw a conclussion that AccessoryOne sold me a bad battery-also the battery has a mfg. date of 2006, so it's been sitting around for over a year in the package before I purchased it or they were defective batteries. i'd be cautious about buying another battery from AccessoryOne-especially if the battery price is too low to believe (under $10.00) | 01 star

Brilliant.
I love this product, it was hard to find one too. I think it is stylish, (I got the dark grey/red one)& very practical. I was so pleased the armband , utility clip and neck cord came in the box-excellent value. Other sources had these items as extras. I have the Motorola Razr flip phone and it works really well in this case. It really is the best case design I've seen right now. I think it looks sporty and smart, not trashy like alot of cases and I think it would suit Males and Females.Well done Naztech, lets have a 2nd generation Ipod shuffle case/armband from you now. | 45 stars

Short talk
I bought this product after reading the reviews on Amazon.com. I had a similar product and absolutely loved it. This product is good, however the talking period is very short. I was hoping to get at least 6-hour talking time before a charge was necessary. Not the case. The most I can expect is 4 hours. Overall, product is great but could use more talk time. | 34 stars

Fast delivery
This battery will keep my old Razr going for over 4 days. True, I do not use it much since the phone is for my overseas travel only (which is still once a month or so) and I use it primarily for local calls when overseas, but I often travel with this phone for a week without re-charging. I had used some other replacement batteries and, while they seemed good at the beginning, some even giving me better battery life than the Motorola, in the end they started dying early, discharged quickly and had to be replaced about 2x - 3x as often as this battery. I'll stick with the OEM product from now on. | 45 stars

Cordless Headset
I've found the headset to be an excellent purchase! The sound quality is crystal clear, and the range is very good. I can get at least 250+ feet through walls with steel studs, etc. I've even been able to use it in our department's basement through the reinforced concrete. It's a bit pricey, but well worth the money spent. | 45 stars

Decent, great for the price
I've had these headphones for a couple weeks now, and I use them at work with my Samsung Blackjack. I have yet to have them die on me, although I use them for 6-8 hours straight every day. They are relatively comfortable (or at least, no more uncomfortable than any other pair of earbuds I've worn) with a decent sound (although the BT stack in WM5 devices causes some distortion in the higher frequencies). The ability to attach the individual ears together via magnets seems kind of gimmicky at first, but is actually a very convenient way to store them. The cord also stores very well and you have the option of charging the headset either with a USB cord or through an A/C adapter. All in all, the product works as advertised, has a good price, excellent battery life, above average sound quality, good range, and a cool form factor. | 34 stars

unsatisfied customer
I wanted to surprise my brother for x-mas with RAZR V3 phone. I was happy to buy the phone for a reasonable price from Amazon. But, when I opened the product I noticed some scratch although the external plastic package is still on it. I complained about getting a used product for a new one. I received a credt from the sellers for that.However, after the product reached my brother who lives outside the US, he told me that the power adapter lid does not stay closed. It fells off regularly and he has to attach it with some plastic. I am sad about that. There is not doubt that the product was a brokena and used one, and was packaged as new. I would have returned it right away, but I did not have enough time to return and buy another one before x-mas. The whole experience was very disappointing for me, although I recieved some credit back after I complained from the sellers. The whole experience was a disappointing one. It is better to pay a higher price and purchase a good product, than to be left disatisfied.The message, dont necessarily trust what they claim, there are some who give you a lower price but will sell you an inferior product. Lesson learned. | 01 star

Love this phone but has minor flaws
It is true that the battery life is poor compared to other phones but that is because of all the great functions this phone has (mostly battery draining features...ie good quality camera, good resolution, games etc.), also the battery included with the phone is the "slim battery", Im pretty sure Samsung will release the "extended Battery" sometime soon....On average I get about 2-3 days off a full charge with moderate use (which is fine with me). One tip is to charge the phone with it powered off so you get a better charge...I also experience a lag on the phone, but I got that with my previous phones also (so no biggy). One other minor flaw is that when you take a picture with the phone closed it comes out reversed(mirrored), you can try it for yourself by taking a picture with words in the background, I also don't really care that much about this because I can just use any photo editor and reverse it myself, plus I don't take many pictures with the phone closed anyways...With all those flaws I still love this phone maybe Bluetooth would had made it better, but it has infared which is cool also....I suggest everyone and anyone to get this phone, IMO the best phone out right now (size,function, and style), all it needs is a firmware upgrade to fix the lag and the reversed camera problems and the "extended battery" | 34 stars

Road Warrior defeated in less than 1 year

Disappointment
I had ordered an earpiece directly from Nokia for my 6800 for $25, and my cat ate through the cord! So I was glad to find this set that included an earpiece for much less -- and with two other accessories besides!However, I have been very disappointed. The leather case is only useful if you never open the phone to use the keyboard, and even then it's cheaply made. The charger didn't do much for me because I already have several of those.The real disappointment was the earpiece! It had poor sound quality on my end. People could hear me just fine, but I couldn't understand them -- it was as if they had covered their phones with pillows and then tried to talk to me -- all muffled and quiet! This was the case on several phone calls with several different people, so it wasn't the other person's phone or the connection. Also, each time, after asking the other person to repeat themselves about a dozen times, I would give up and pull the earpiece and talk directly with the phone, and sure enough -- without using the cheap earpiece the call was clear.The last straw -- and the part that prompted me to take the time to write this review -- is that a tiny piece of the earpiece plug broke off and got stuck in my phone! It just took me a while, with tweezers and all, to get the piece out of my phone so that I can plug in an earpiece there. And guess what? I'll be plugging in a $25 earpiece directly from Nokia. I guess it's worth the price of the Nokia product after all. Certainly this cheaply made, poorly performing "3-piece starter set" is not worth the price. | 01 star

My2Cents
I had read reviews about this charger and was in two minds about buying it because the overwhelming majority suggested that it might not work. But the same charger costs me 31 CAD in my local store here. So I thought what the heck, I could loose $2 rather than spending 31 CAD. The charger works just perfect. It is still early days as many people have found the charger not working after a few days. I hope it keeps working just as perfectly. I'm happy that I bought this. Its just a dollar or two and you've nothing to loose. Why not give a try? | 45 stars

I love it!!
This is the 3rd headset I've tried for my Samsung A900. This headset is absolutely tiny, weighs almost nothing, and has incredibly clear sound - even when I'm driving down the highway people can't tell I'm on a headset!! And I don't have any problems with the headset falling out of my ear. Just like another reviewer said - play with it and you will probably be able to get a comfortable fit. | 45 stars
