I highly reccond it its adorable affffffff",1,0 +2,"Adequate...barely. + +If you are looking for a basic phone with a QWERTY keyboard for sole purposes of making calls, and texting ONLY without having to subscribe to a data plan, this is literally just about your only choice on AT&T.; It does those two functions adequately. Call quality is good, and the keyboard while small, is adequate. This is not a smartphone so its not to compare features to basic android phones etc, but this phone has many other quirks that would probably make me pick another model, if such a device was available. Some of the biggest annoyances:Battery charging indicator is seldom, if ever accurate. It will show full charge on AC then immediately drop to 75% when you unplug it. It does this even if you leave it plugged in all night so I never know if my phone is ever completely charged. It does also takes a very long time to charge. With the included AC adaptor it often takes 2-3 hours to charge from 25%, if not more. The good news is that I often get 3 days out of a charge, even with heavy texting and moderate phone call usage.Extremely limited internal memory of only 8 MB for text messages. This is criminal for a phone that is obviously designed for texting. Even though you can add a micro SD card, you cant store text messages on it so you are constantly getting ""memory low"" warnings even if the ""auto delete old messages"" feature is enabled.GET A CASE. This phone is extremely flimsy, lightweight, and fragile. One pocket drop will kill it. The screen scratches easy so get a screen protector too.It has the ability to play MP3's, but the playback volume is deafening even on the lowest setting.The built in camera is surprisingly good in all sorts of lighting situations, But it often takes 3 - 5 seconds to launch the camera. This is a case where the plus outweighs the negative though.Pairing with a Bluetooth headset is an absolute pain. It only connects with my headset on the third try, every time.Overall this thing is laggy and slow. No matter what function you wish to do, it will always take a few seconds to load up the desired feature. There is an option to check att for a firmware update, however that feature on my phone does not work. It did when I bought it, then it just stopped.So again, for texting and phone calls only, four stars. For overall usage and performance for anything else, one star. Unless you buy an unlocked cel phone from somewhere, this is pretty much the only ATT phone with a hard QWERTY keyboard that does not require a data plan.

I've been happy with the battery life and it charges quickly. I've been able to take some super nice photos with the camera. fingerprint sensor always works (except when wet). I could care less about the health apps + heartbeat sensor. I only really used a few of the 'app extras' that samsung bundled in, most are like a few months free premium access and then they want you to pay for continued use.Waterproof is great - i've had people asking what phone this is, i took it to hawaii and submerged it in hot tubs and the ocean, took video underwater of fish with it. The controls are difficult or not really able to be used under water. The headphone jack did get some gravel in it + was hard to clean, and while it was drying out it kept giving me the headphone notification which was annoying.I'm not giving it a 5 star because the phone still lags at times, probably samsung's software and other apps causing it, and the chrome band around it nicks pretty easily - they could have used tougher plastic for that.You should probably still get a screen protector or cas... somehow i managed to get a decent scratch on the gorilla glass, and that would also help the dents on the rim.All in all, i really like the phone, if you're on the verge, get it.",4,0 +5,"the device works but customer service is terrible + +i have been using freedom pop for over a year now for casual internet access on the go.

When I came back to check on it, however, rather than the charge light still being red to indicate it was still charging or green to indicate the charge was complete, there was no light.

Maybe I can sell it to someone else.",17,1 +18,"Not perfect, but an acceptable headset + +I've used Jawbone and Bose, and Jabra bluetooth headsets in the past, and while they worked admirably, there always seemed to be something off with the fit and volume. Bluetooth headsets never seem to get the volume quite right for my tastes, making the overall experience seem more like a chore than a convenience. This new Jabra headset is in keeping with all of the other Jabra headsets I've used in the past with it's slightly wonky comfort level, but it's made up for with some pretty superior sound control schemes.Perhaps the best aspect of this headset is in its ease of use. Flipping the microphone one and off is all you need to do to get it working correctly. You can sync the device with any PC, giving the ability to use apps like Skype with ease. I tested it with Skype and Yahoo messenger systems with nary a flaw, and sound was good all around.The noise cancellation feature is very commendable. I tend to not use bluetooth sets whilst driving for safety reasons, but I tried the sound cancellation intermittently while on a busy highway, and I have to say that it is among the best I've ever heard. Sound quality did not take a single hit at all while I erased background noise, and switching between the two was simple. If you plan to use the headset primarily on the road, I would strongly urge you to investigate this headset.My only gripe is design. It's not that bulky physically, but it manages to come off that way to the sight. You're definitely not going to be hiding this headset. The good folks at Jabra need to keep all of the inner workings of this headset intact, but go back to the drawing board when it comes to design.In summation, these headphones sound fantastic, are easy to navigate, but come at the price of sleekness. Speaking of price, this Jabra set is too much. $150? At $100 we have a deal, but as it stands, the price is a bit too steep for what this headset has to offer.",18,0 +19,"It does not work + +This thing only allows charging. The audio does not play through the lightening port. I have no choice but to return it.",19,1 +20,"FINALLY AFTER WAITING SEVERAL MONTHS... + +I originally ordered Toq as soon as Qualcomm's website was open for pre-orders. When I read on Wednesday Amazon was actually shipping the TOQ I cancelled my order with Qualcomm. This was easy since they had not charged my card yet. The TOQ arrived on Thursday Dec 12 2013. Why did I wait for this watch for so long since it was first mentioned in a news release several months ago - the promise of wireless charging, three day battery, waterproof, readable screen in daylight, works with Android (I have a LG G2 ), ease of use, attractive watch (yes I already received complements), and Qualcomm's branding. Yes, as a support test I had called Qualcomm and immediately I was talking to an engineer.So am I happy with my choice?. After a two days of using the TOQ there is much to like. All the items on my ""want"" list were satisfied. There was a concern with cutting the wristband to get a perfect fit. I didn't use the enclosed instructions but, instead, I watched a very short YouTube video, If I need a new strap for any reason I am sure Qualcomm would provide it at a nominal price. But this is a non issue for me. The cut to size was trivial and provides a perfect and comfortable fit. Bright sunlight is a non issue with reading the TOQ display. As a camera buff this was a must have for me on any watch. I have had to replace expensive cameras because of displays that were washed out in bright daylight.The learning curve is brief. Most of the configuration is done on my smart phone's TOQ free application. The app is well written and flawless so far. One item to be aware of - the watch band has two points of contact that work as buttons - one point on each side of the display. A few quick experiments will shows how these buttons function along with with the display's touch screen.My preferences in a smart watch app were for simplicity - several easy to use functions. Phone and message notifications were first. Now I know who is calling or sending a message. I then choose whether or not to get to my phone. Stock quotes and weather apps were on my list as ""nice to have"". I appreciate the simple TOQ implementation for both.Charging the battery is easy. If the battery icon ever shows the need to charge I can drop the watch into the supplied cradle - orientation is not important - and watch the charging icon fill up. The manual states something like 2 hours to full from empty.Three more aspects of a smart watch may be crucial for ones consideration: is it really waterproof, is it always on and is it responsive. The TOQ gets a definite three check marks here. These aspects may not seem crucial but, to me, these are substantial differentiators. Since my aim here is to review the TOQ, I leave it to reviewers of other smart watches to comment on their experiences with the other manufacturers' offerings.Any negatives? I hate to say none but if I must include some comment then a charge that lasted a few weeks would be nice to have. I can't complain about the price but under $300 would have helped.However I am aware that the competition is not able to match Qualcomm's features.Conclusion: if you want the best smart watch available and if the price isn't too daunting then get the TOQ. Getting a cheaper watch may cost more if you are not satisfied and end up buying a second or even a third watch.Update on 12/24/2013: I now realize an additional benefit of TOQ's wireless charging. The Toq is sealed unit without any ports for connectivity or charging (or letting moisture in the watch.) To me, this feature makes the watch extremely waterproof. And with my normal absent mindedness, I never remember to take off any watch before showering.",20,0 +21,"The last of the best before touch screens take over? + +Updated: Got a different phone recently and it didn't have the battery cover wobble I had with my first phone. I decided to keep this phone as a keepsake as it could be the best of last phones without touch screen.This review is very hard for me as I lovED the phone so much for so many things but there are few things that really ticked me off for making me hate the phone I love so much. Sounds complicated? Well, first let me tell why I returned the phone.Reasons I returned the phone:1. Battery cover doesn't feel solid when you hold the phone and press keys. You will feel your hand pressure slightly pressing the battery cover that causes movement. This got very irritating for me as this is otherwise an excellently built phone that looks super sexy. First I thought it could be with my phone. But the replacement phone had the exact same problem. Then I went to couple of Sony Style stores and noticed one store phone didn't have problem but another one had. So, looks like some lucky buyers may get a good one but not sure how long that will feel firm if you keep opening and closing the phone. I do that quite often to change SIM cards.2. Fonts are too big for beautiful display with 2.6"" screen. Where were SE developers thinking? For example, the contacts screen shows only 6 contacts at once. With a slightly smaller fonts it would have displayed 8 contacts quite easily. They should have had a settings to choose small, medium, and large fonts and the current fonts should fall in X-large fonts.3. Kick stand. What a joke! The phone would have felt better if they left this completely or designed it in a way for users to remove it if they don't need it. You have to place phone in your shirt pocket with screen facing front or the kick stand would pop out easily. Another silly design by their engineers.4. 256-K colors. What are you thinking SE? When will you catch up with others here?Good things about the phone:If you already are familiar with Sony ericsson phones they have the best OS among non-smartphones. Frankly, they have many features better done than many smartphones including iPhone. First, the one's common to all new Sony Ericsson phones.Some of the cool things found in SE feature phones:Smart Dialing, ease of sending SMS, MMS, emails to a contact and the interface of MMS is super cool. I think they have the best implementation for MMS among all phones, FM radio, Accelerometer, Exchange ActiveSync (office outlook emails and calendar syncing and also to sync your google contacts and calendar with Push) and Call logs. With SE phones when in call logs you can select ""Open"" and it brings up all other contact information for that person like other numbers, email, etc. So, you can easily call that person at his other numbers or just send SMS, MMS, or email from logs. Also, D-pad arrow buttons can be used to create shortcuts (4 applications) to your favorite applications. This is one of my favorite feature in SE phones along with call logs and smart dialing as I hardly have more than 4 apps I like to use on a phone.When it comes to apps for the phone, there are plenty to feed your needs. Check out getjar.com or even browse Sony Ericsson site from the native browser in the phone and you will see several free apps you can download. If you change the Location of the country in the sony ericsson site while browsing you will find more free apps as Sony seems to provide few different applications for different countries. Also, if you google you will find lot of Free Themes for the phone that will let you customize the look of the menus and standby screen.Some specialties with W995:1. In spite of the problems with the kickstand and the battery cover, the phone feels like a tank and it's sure to 'WOW WOW' your friends. One work around to fix the battery cover issue is to fold a small piece of paper and place it above the battery to stop the movement on the cover. Kickstand? Glue the stupid thing if you think you will never use it.2. Display looks super bright and clear even in sunlight.3. Walkman sound quality is simply amazing. I thought it sounded as good as Zune which I thought sounds way better than iPhone.4. It will be a joke if I mention having 3.5 mm audio jack is a plus with this phone. But, Sony finally did it. Good job there.5. WiFi, GPS, 3G on AT&T; all work like a charm.Some of my favorite FREE apps:Gmail, Google maps, Shozu, GetJar, TruTap, Fringe, Comeks, Opera Mini (of course), Blogger, TrackID.Even though I returned the phone I still am addicted to Sony Ericsson phones for their well thought out software for making calls and sending messages. Unfortunately, most of their recent phones have severe build quality issues. Most of them with the slider design or the battery covers. Still, I sometimes feel like buying W995a and deal with the problems it has as the goodness of the phone over shadows the problems. Moreover, there really is no perfect phone out there. At least for me :-(. Well, I even sold my iPhone after few months of use as I thought it feels too wide, battery doesn't last a full-day, and making calls is not as convenient as it's on Sony phones, or Windows Mobile phones, or Blackberries.The current $399.99 price on Amazon is tempting but I will try hard to resist until Xperia X2 gets announced this week.",21,0 +22,"Even works on the HOG.. + +I read a review of the scala-500 in one of the many motorcycle magazines I subscribe to. The review said that it even worked while riding (not that it was recomended, mind you) at speeds up to 75 MPH. Being who I am, I had to get one to test those claims. I tested it with three different helmets, a skid lid, a 1/2 helmet and a full-face clam-shell style. The skid lid and the 1/2 straps pressed it snugly, but not uncomfortably, against my ear. The full-face didn't work too well, as that the helmet is designed to fit snugly all around. Hurt like the Devil! But while riding at surface street speeds, 25 - 45 MPH, I could hold a conversation without too much problem. At highway speeds, about 65 MPH, the wind did affect the microphone slightly, but the speaker wasn't drowned out as much as I would have expected. All in all, works great in rather strong wind.

I recommend.",29,0 +30,"I like it so far + +I bought it for 25 dollars and so far so good. Almost anytime the thing is in light, any light, it starts charging. It will not charge much off the sun. But it will charge off the sun. Any solar panel is most likely under 30 % efficient. Read up on it. It recharges at 0.65 watts. At 5 volts, it recharges at 0.13 amps. This is a 5 amp hour battery. At that rating, it would take 38.46 hours to recharge by solar power. Not that that is the rating. It is only an example. I want you to understand one thing. This will charge my phone 3.3 times. 38.46 divided by 3.3 is 11. 65 hours to charge your phone one time. Hiking, camping, out at a BBQ, day at the park, this will collect a good amount of power.Do not listen to these other people putting this down in winter months, "Oh, I got it for Christmas, and I live in Connecticut. It doesn't work." Of course, you have no sun in the winter. I bought this because I live in Colorado, where we have 300+ days of sun a year. Keep in mind what resources are available at what time.This thing has different power settings. It is great for experimenting. 5V - 2A, 6.5V - 1.5A, 9V - 1.2A, 12V - 1A. I can use this to power a small television, an Arduino, or my Raspberry Pi. Suddenly, these experiment boards become portable. But, you have to remember to switch to the appropriate power. People, who complain about this breaking their devices, may have not noticed the switch setting. Keep this in mind.I like that this has a rubberized case around it. This battery pack was built for exactly what it was that you would use it for. Hiking in the mountains, I do not always know trails very well. I bought this for recharging or trickle charging my cell while trying to use GPS. This thing feels like it could be dropped hard, stepped on, maybe even ran over. It seems pretty water tight. Although the best thing about solar is that you can put it in a plastic baggy or water proof container from the fishing or camping department. If you do get lost, this battery has an LED flash light. Not powerful, but alone in the dark, lost, any light is comforting. I think I may do a test, to see how much power is left after a full night of the flash light.The attachments, for the power cord are pretty good as well. I do not think I received all the attachments. I believe I bought a used or returned product. I am not worried. It has the mini USB attachment for charging the battery, and the micro USB attachment for charging the majority of my devices. It doesn't matter because the output is a USB connection. You can buy a cord if you have to, but most devices come with the appropriate cord with USB charging as an option.My phone, with moderate use, will last for half the day. I think this is the same for most people. Even without the solar panel, this will charge a moderate sized battery three times. This will charge your phone for a weekend. Leave it in your back window. When you need it, it will be there. Keep in mind, your device charges faster when it is off. This will charge your phone at he same speed as your wall charger, but being a battery, it has a limit. Remember to be considerate, due to this fact.This is a great product for the money. I bought it and am considering a second. I may buy a different product only so th at I can review it. I have a hard time navigating these products. I am an electronic technician student in Colorado. I suffer from the same purchase anxiety that many of you who read these reviews suffer from. When there are many details about a product, I will write a longer review. I think I may start posting these reviews on my wordpress.com blog, where I can add photos and videos. davidbrownchalkboard.wordpress.com",30,0 +31,"RAZR Fan + +Wow. Since the price dropped I ran out and bought this phone. Most important to me were the following in this order. Speakerphone, battery life, bluetooth and design. The RAZR doesn't dissapoint in those areas. The speakerphone is one of the better ones that I've ever used. I've been in separate rooms and didn't have a problem communicating in either direction. The battery life will last me approximately three days without charging. I only talk about 30 minutes a day on my phone. The benefits of BT goes without saying. The design of the phone to say the least is phenomenal. If you're the type that want's to turn heads, then get this phone just for that fact. I've read some reviews saying the phone is too wide. For me, since I have small-to-medium sized hands it fits very comfortable. The display is phenomenal.Now to my dislikes. I feel these are minor and shouldn't be a deterant. 1) The buttons will take a bit of getting used too. 2)The outer display would have been better if it used the same amount of colors as the internal display. 3) The address book is a bit too cumbersome. 4)Web navigation is absolutely slow. I don't know if it's the service or the OS.Since I use my cell as my home phone it was important to me to have a high quality phone with as many features as possible. If all the cell phone manufactures would take a cue from Motorola on the design and feature set of this phone we would all be in cell phone nirvana.",31,0 +32,"Not bad + +I just got this case and I must say it is pretty good.

Ive been a prime member for over 2 years, this is my first review, thought id share my experience.",34,0 +35,"Great entry level smartphone + +To preface, I am a power Android user who uses a Google Nexus 4 as a primary smartphone. In the last two months, I have purchased an LG Optimus L9 (the precursor of this phone) for my fiancé, and this Optimus F3 for my sister.The phone comes in the same pre-paid, off-the-shelf look as if it were purchased in Best Buy, and it includes a Micro-SIM card for pre-paid activation. However, the phone is only locked to T-Mobile's network, so activating a post-paid account with the phone worked just fine as well. The setup is fairly painless, with the prerequisite Google account to download contacts, settings etc. Coming from a stock Android experience, this build is a little heavy with bloatware apps, especially T-Mobile's services and things like mobile security. However, for a new smartphone user, you would probably not even notice.Despite only having 1GB of RAM, the phone is very responsive even with several apps running in the background. The LTE is quick, and T-Mobile has a preconfigured notification telling you how much data you have used. Speaking of preconfigured notifications, if you use all of the Q-settings from LG and the T-Mobile reports and the virus scan reports, you will have virtually no room on the 4 inch screen for the actual notifications such as texts and missed calls. I would highly recommend disabling some of the stock notifications.Aside from the user interface, the hardware is very nice. Having a 4 inch screen in a land of 5 inch monsters is very good for those with small hands or pockets. People coming from an iPhone or iPod touch will be right at home with size. The phone is small and light, but packs a HUGE battery (2460 mAh vs 2100 mAh in even a Nexus 4). That combined with the fairly small screen and dual core processor should yield amazing battery life. The notification light around the home button is a much needed improvement over the L9. The camera is not the selling point of this phone, but using tap-to-focus will make pictures usable.As a last point, make sure when shopping for cases to find products for the T-Mobile variant (MS659 model number). The other model for Virgin Mobile has four rounded corners, so the cases will not fit. Overall, this will make a perfect phone for non-power users who need an off-contract phone for T-Mobile. It won't hold a candle to a Galaxy or iPhone, but at 1/3 of the price, that is to be expected. Get this phone and a Simple Choice plan, and you will save lots of $$$.",35,0 +36,"Does not cover back + +If you want to clip your phone to your shorts or sweats for running rather than wearing an armband, then this is the case for you. This case works great if you want your iPhone clipped close to your body. It clips very well onto gym shorts and does not and weight to the phone. Keep in mind that when it is clipped on the phone faces out, which makes the glad on he front vulnerable.The phone, when in this caseclip, fits easily into the pocket. This is good because I don't always want to clip my phone. An added benefit to this clipcase is the ability to clip cards right onto your phone. I used this feature on a resent trip to Vegas to hold my room key.Draw backs to the case are not too bad. First and foremost, the glass faces out. The case does a good job of covering the edges along the front, but the front is exposed for all to see. The phone must be dislodged if it is clipped, and because of the tight fit, this can prove difficult. Another issue i had was that the case does not cover the back completely. It is not so much a protection issue as a dust and dirt thing. Finally, the fit is snug at the bottom opening for the charger so it made it difficult to make the connection. This might have just been my particular unit and not a design flaw.",36,0 +37,"Very stylish case for iPhone4 + +This case is perfect for what I wanted. It's so slim that most people won't be able to tell that there's a case on your iPhone4. The cover takes care of the back & sides of the iPhone4.

I've been taking it around with me from school to school to demonstrate. The first couple of times I set it up, it stood up perfectly. Now, though, it's starting to take more effort to stand correctly. I think if you're planning to use it in one spot, it will be a good device to use (we may have to tap it together to keep its shape).Otherwise, it works well; when you place the iphone or iPod touch on it, the document will be in perfect focal range to capture the text. The couple of times I used the light strip, it worked well, as well, but is a pain to have to have the stand near an outlet.

Note I have not tried the bluetooth technology yet.Pros:- Great sound on both ends, even while traveling- Never have had a call dropped. Strong signal while traveling in SE Ohio- Easy to use- Small for the amount of features- ITap text works great- Good customer service- Voice dialing works! (But you can only voice dial numbers stored in the phone memory, not the SIMM card)Cons:- Does NOT come with USB cable and software to download pictures/video from phone to computer. About $50.00 to buy cable/sftwre from T-Mobile- The Call/End buttons are reversed from the every other phone- Speaker phone does not sound good at all- I carry the phone in my pocket. The button to change the ring styles is on the side of the phone. My pocket lining has changed the ring style a few times without me knowing it- At the time of this review, T-Mobile does not support any games downloads for the v330- Poor documentation on how to use ITap for messaging- Comes with AOL IM instead of Yahoo! IM, although Yahoo! IM can probably be installed- Message inbox memory limited to about 30 messagesUpdate: 14FEB06 - I have had to have the phone replaced because it would not maintain a strong signal and kept dropping calls. It took about a week of calling customer service to get them to replace the phone, and then they made me return to the dealer to have the problem verified. That is when I found out phones replaced under warranty may be refurbished. In addition T-Mobile charged me to ship a replacement phone covered by warranty. I talked to a few friends who have had their phones replaced with other service providers, and they were not charged shipping.On the bright side, games are now available.",42,0 +43,"Not good at all + +I was very disappointed with this headset after reading such positive reviews. It crackled a lot no matter how close the phone. The person I was talking to said they could hear tons of background noise when I was in a busy area and that my voice sounded ""tinny"" when it was quiet. The thing is bulky and the single button is a bad idea -- it is easy to do the wrong thing especially since it requires a heavy finger (which also forces you to secure the device well with your hand before pressing it). It doesn't even work with call waiting. Maybe I got a bad one, but I can't say anything good about this device. Save your money.I have since purchased a Motorola H680. It is much sleeker and better designed. Light on the ear. Buttons are simple and have the right tension. Sound quality is much better. Has a nice case/charger. Like night and day these 2 devices. Go with the H680. BTW, I have a Blackberry Pearl 8130.",43,0 +44,"great product at a great price! + +I have been selling phones for about three years now. I have only recommended Zagg screen protectors to all of my customers. Since Zagg did not make a product for my Droid Ultra I decided to try out this company. I have to say, I do not regret it. One of the best products I have ever used. I like the feel much more than the Zagg screen protectors. Many of the Zagg products have a tackiness to them, you can feel the difference between the screen and the protector. With this Skinomi product you cannot tell.In my opinion it also reduces some of the grease that your fingers leave behind. Its not a huge selling point but noticeable.The instillation was easy for me (since I've spent years installing Zagg products). They do a great job warning you in the video that it does have some rainbow effect for an hour or so. Its a liquid instillation so that is to be expected.I was concerned about the shield around the edge of the screen, since the droid has a beautiful soft edge to it. There is a slight lip from the screen protector but nothing that would cause a problem. I am an avid fan of putting my phone in my pocket and have done so since I've purchased the screen protector. I have had no issues with peeling.My favorite parts about this screen protector would be the price point and its ability to withstand many dents and scratches. The shield will have the dent or scratch for a while then fade over time. It's really neat.All in all, I would recommend this product to everyone. I have told my coworkers and customers!(Quick tip, check your local Costco for great deals on phones!)",44,0 +45,"Tested with Galaxy Nexus Phone (USB connector), audio jack for tablets and computer speakers + +Gdock is designed to be used as a docking station for use with Samsung Galaxy phones. It can also be used a speakers for any device if the device is connected via AUX IN port by audio cable (included). I received this unit from manufacture for testing purposes to write an unbiased and honest review. I tested this speaker with Android Phone, our two Android tablets (Nexus and Galaxy) as well as a computer speaker. You will find both positives and negatives I encountered during my testing.Gdock works with AC power source or alternatively can work through a lithium-ion rechargeable battery (sold separately). However, it recharges the phone only when plugged into the AC source. When it operates on the battery it only behaves as the speakers.I am attaching a collage of seven photos numbered 1 though 7 under customer photos that I will be referencing in this review.Photo #1 shows everything that comes in the box: Gdock, cradles, remove control, power cable, audio cable, power supply and cable.Gdock comes with 6 holders for Galaxy SIII, Galaxy Note, Galaxy SII SGH-T989, Galaxy SII GT-I9100 SGH-1777, Galaxy SOO SPH-D719. The GDock comes pre-installed with a cradel fro S III cradle. The cradle can be removed by sliding it up, and replaced with another cradle if needed. Photo #1 shows me sliding one of the cradles into the dock.Photo #2 shows the back of the unit, where in the center you see audio in and power connections. On the sides of the unit you see two bass ports for extending the bass performance.One of the things I found in testing is that the sound is significantly improved if you position the unit in a way that the sound coming out of these port holes has a solid surface to reflect from. The difference was significant and significantly improved my opinion of the sound quality.Photo #3 shows Gdock on the digital scale. It weights in at 3.3 pounds and feels significant and well built.Gdock comes with a remote control, which has the following operations:1. On/off2. Mute on/off3. Volume up and down4. Reset to factory settings5. Bass up and down6. Change audio from Aux In to Samsung Galaxy7. Treble up and downWhen the unit is turned on a blue LED light on the front of the speaker is turned on. This light is a bit subtle, it shines through the speaker cloth and I did not notice it right away. I put a red square around this light in picture #7 to bring it to your attention.PHONE TESTING (USB port):------------------------------To position the phone in the doc the phone is slid into the cradle from the top, through the arms of the cradle and inserted into the micro USB jack connector at the bottom of the cradle. The phone can be positioned either vertically or horizontally on the doc by rotating the docking port.Photo #4 shows the Nexus Galaxy phone I used for testing. Several important notes on the phone. The Nexus Galaxy phone is not officially listed as a supported phone. In addition the phone is normally used with an extra large battery which makes it significantly fatter than a standard battery. Despite the ""unofficial"" configuration I thought this test would be of interest to people who own this phone model.1) Two of the cradles fit the Nexus Galaxy phone with the standard battery: Galaxy SIII and Galaxy SI SGH-T989.2) When the phone had its extra large battery installed none of the cradles fit, but the unit could be inserted into the USB connection without the cradle. It made a good connection as indicated by the Battery App (see below). Photo #5 shows the side view of phone with the extra large battery on Gdock.Photo #6 show the phone charging. I used Battery App by Elvison to determine the device recognized the charging source. 'AC' status means the charging is at full charging rate. 'USB' status indicates charging at a lower charging rate. 'Discharging' status means that the charging rate is below the power that the device is consuming so it slows down the discharge rate but does not re-charge. The battery app showed that the phone is connected and is charging at USB rate. This is not surprising, since the USB connector has to be a data connector to carry music data to the speaker.Difference between a charging cable and a data cable:Charging cables short the two data connections together (rendering them useless for data transfer), but this fools devices to see them as an AC power connection, and thus accept the higher current of the charging source.SPEED OF CHARGING:Gdock USB source ... 1% charge in 10 minutes(by comparison AC source charges this phone 6% in 10 minutes)Photo #7 shows the phone playing music. However, Nexus Phone appears to be incompatible with the speaker. The speakers did not engage, even though the battery app showed that the phone was connected and recognized by Gdock. Since this phone was not officially listed as a supported phone I am not deducting any stars from the rating, but this finding was a surprise to me and I wanted to share it with other Nexus Galaxy phone owners.OTHER DEVICES (AUDIO IN port)------------------------------The rest of my experiments was using the audio jack on the back of the unit. I tested Gdock with Nexus 7 Tablet, Galaxy 7.7 Tablet, and as desktop computer speaker. As I mentioned earlier the key to getting good sound from this speaker is to put right agaist a wall or in our case a window pane. This really improved the bass performance. The front facing stereo speakers generate crisp and clear sound, the mid-range was very good. With speaker against the surface the bass sound was reasonable.When I was testing this speaker as a computer speaker I compared it (using the same piece of music and two different computers) to Cambridge Soundworks speakers and Labtec speakers.These speakers did not perform as well as my Cambridge Soundsworks but better than Labtec speakers.To summarize:------------------------------1. The mid-range of the speaker was very good, bass performance somewhat weaker but reasonable.2. Charging is at USB rate3. Speaker does not work with Galaxy Nexus phone, the charger does work.Ali Julia review",45,0 +46,"i love it! + +excellent phone, comfortable, lightweight and good performance, in very good condition as advertised, I love my s4 mini, very with my purchase",46,0 +47,"Meets Expectations + +Since there were no reviews for this on Amazon yet I figured I'd write a quick one.Price: I got mine for $56 plus $5 shipping which was probably a little more than I wanted to spend but I really wanted the genuine Samsung battery for it's thinner profile and OEM quality. A day after I bought it, they raised the price to $79 through the same seller which I think is too overpriced now. I would suggest waiting for the price to drop or find it on ebay.Shipping: Knowing these batteries ship from overseas no matter what seller or site you buy this battery from at the moment I was prepared for a longer than usual wait time. I was very pleased to find out it only took 1 week and 1 day from date of purchase. (shipped Royal Mail from UK)Looks: I have the Titanium S3 and since they don't offer this battery in Titanium yet I went with the white and I think it's a nice color combination with the aluminum sides and grey front. I personally feel that the stock S3 is a little too thin for how wide it is and it felt awkward to hold. This extended battery back cover makes the phone just 2 mm thicker but also gives it a nice curved back and it definitely feels better in the hand now without taking anything away from it's aesthetics in my opinion.Battery Life: Battery life meets my expectations. I took it off the charger at 6:30 AM on my first day of full charge and when I was ready for bed at midnight I still had 25%. I checked the screen on time and it was at around 5 and half hours of screen on time for the day. I used no battery saving profiles, wifi stayed on constantly as well as GPS and Bluetooth.

The majority of products that really got my attention were Plantronics. Truth be told, earlier editions of Jabra gear did not meet my standards. The Jabra devices that I tried out lost points on comfort, durability and functionality. After a little over a week's continuous use, these are my thoughts on the Jabra Extreme.Out of the box, the headset easily charges via an AC adapter or the USB charger. After about two hours of charging, it was all systems go. Weighing in at less then an ounce, this is the first Jabra product that felt comfortable in my ear. Its light and barely noticeable. At one point I forgot that I had it on. Another major plus going for this unit is the immediate connection after plugging in the USB adapter. No downloads or installation to concern myself with. Battery life was about six hours before recharging.Dialing up via Skype was a breeze. It works well with both Google Voice Chat and my cell phone. Conversations on all three mediums were crystal clear and without interruption. I like the fact that I can stay connected with my mobile phone while on Skype or Google Voice Chat. Surprisingly switching back and forth from the laptop to my mobile phone went smooth without call drops. I know I'll never come close to pairing up to the maximum eight devices allowed.The Jabra Extreme operates with Windows XP, Vista, and Windows 7. Unfortunately, music listeners will not get stereo Bluetooth streaming because of the limited bandwidth of this system. The company boasts an operating range of 33 feet, I began to pick up signal distortion at about 25 feet. The features include; answer call, end call, reject, voice dialing, last number re-dial, mute, call waiting, volume control and hold. In order to utilize these soft-phone features, the Jabra PC suite must be installed on your computer via the included software mini disk.The Jabra Extreme comes with a USB adapter, 2 Ear Gels (L or R), 2 ear hooks (S or L), 1 AC charger, 1 USB charger, quick start guide, software, and a one year warranty.

I did a lot of research of reviews (see iLounge) before picking this case. Easy to insert phone, seems very protective, more attractive than the other "protective" cases. I just wish they hadn't left a hole in the back to show the Apple logo, but some people like that. I put a screen protector on the back of the phone before putting it in the case to protect the Apple logo area from scratches through the hole - no effect on fit. This is not a "rubbery" surface case; the surface is pretty hard plastic, and it does have a very defined edge on it, but it's just tacky enough that it's not slippery and the edge doesn't bother me (seems to replicate the edge of the phone itself). I combined this with a screen protector on the front as well because I don't want to have to worry about the phone getting all scratched up (I'll sell it next time I upgrade). Good rim around the screen to protect it when the phone goes face-down on a flat surface - no worries about that. No scratches on the case yet. I can see how that could happen, but I really don't care as long as the phone is protected. Feels like it could take a pretty severe drop with no problem. Holes around ports on bottom are nice and big. Only potential issue I see is the edge between the lightning port and the Home button peels back pretty easily; it is clearly the weak point in the design, but that is similar to most cases on the market. It does add a little bulk to the phone, but I think that's the trade-off for the drop protection and I have big hands and actually find it a little easier to hold the phone in the case than out of the case. Overall, I'm satisfied with what I got for the price, and much less worried about any damage to my new phone.

I am tired with iPhone, and have a tablet with Android, so maybe this is the time for me to give a try on a new system. But I am wrong. I only saw the first few reviews which gave me a great favor, but didn't notice the recent ones since May, who has similar experience with me.Pros:1. Great UI design, as HTC sense.2. No data plan required. You can switch on/off $15 unlimited data at any time.3. It is a 3G phone! It can work with ATT MicroCell to boost your signal.Cons:1. Freeze, freeze, freeze! It randomly freezes at any time, without touching anything on it!2. Crash, crash, crash! It can suddenly pops up a message like ""Oops, system is rebooting..."" The language can be either English or others, randomly!3. Black screen! It happened at least once a day. After that, your phone quietly die, and you won't notice it until in the morning you wonder where is my phone alarm?4. Battery gets hot, and drains too quickly!

Exactly same thing happened again. This is not even a phone, and it is a crappy toy. I hope I can give it a zero star.So, my recommendation is: DO NOT BUY this phone, unless you want to lose your phone call, let your friend can't reach you, get hot stuff in your trousers, and miss your important alarm and schedule.

And that includes evo dell streak and othersI would say that the only plus to this phone so far is that for the 3 that it is charged, its smooth and responsiveIdk I'm torn because I love vanilla and the phone was basically free, but free isn't Always good.Who knows maybe amazon will send me a new device and I may change my mind. But overall the battery is so bad its none enjoyable and where is my lte?",61,1 +62,"New to the scene + +This was my first bluetooth headset. I have it paired with a Moto E815. I don't really have any complaints, as I said this was my first one, but it does everything I have expected of it. I haven't had any complaints from the people I talk to with it and I can hear them just fine. I can usually get a little over 10 meters before it starts to cut out. The only thing I can say bad is that the power button is a little hard to push, thats about it.",62,0 +63,"Love it + +Wanted something nice and slim on my S4. Saw this and thought what the heck, very reasonably priced and good looking. The case does NOT disappoint. Good build quality and fit. I would like to see a little more coverage on the corners, but after examining the design, I'm satisfied, especially since the case provides very little bulk to an already large device.Slips in and out of my pocket with ease (no sticking like with many silicon covers), and after a few days use the cover becomes a little "seasoned" and a little more "grippy" with your hand.",63,0 +64,"Nice BUT too many imperfections + +I was looking for something that was made of leather, protected the front of the screen at all times, and allowed me to wear the iphone on my hip. This fit the bill and the reviews sounded good so ...The actual product I received doesn't match the reviews. First of all the leather is unbelievably thin and I will be surprised if it lasts through the entire use of the phone. Secondly, my iphone sits in the case slightly crooked which is really weird and quite annoying. Thirdly, the receiver sits off center in the leather opening which does not match the photos making the case appear off balance. Fourth, and most importantly, the leather case fits so loosely within the holster that I dare not carry it around unless I plan to be relatively sedentary. If you turn the holster upside down, the leather case along with the iphone itself come tumbling out. Not secure at all.A real disappointment for me. I won't buy from case-mate again because I believe their production quality is marginal as shown in this case.I am looking elsewhere for a QUALITY case.",64,0 +65,"Disappointed + +When these are charged and I know they are charged, they work well enough. None of the ear stabilizers really keep the headphones in my ear. The primary issue with the headphones is you cannot tell when the device is on or off- so they die all of the time. The LED light on the bud is so small and impossible to determine if lit. The other big drawback is that it does not work to take calls on my iPhone-- you tap the headphone controls but the call goes thru to your iPhone not to your earplugs. And no one can hear you. I wish I had bought the newer model but I am not sure if the newer model is any better or not. OH and the packaging, oh my, seriously folks- take a lesson from Apple and make it easy. It would enhance your customer experience if you did.",65,0 +66,"Grrrrreaaat + +I was lucky enough to find this case for .20 cents.

Can't see any pink in photos taken.Doens't intefere with my ZAGG screen protector. Doesn't lift it or cause it to come up.Cons-* When I first took it out of the package it smelled horrible, but it is slowly fading away.* The silicon tends to pick up lint and things like dog hair. but it's not a big problem.* I wish it had a little more grip to it. Its not as slippery as plastic but if you don't have okay grip on it, tends to slip down hand.Overall I would definetly reccomend this product for Samsung Galaxy Note II users.

Then in May 2006 i got the razr. It was a great improvement over my other 2 phones. The menu is easy to navigate and the buttons are way cool. You can also change sum of the buttons to go to different things. The camera is fairly good, better thasn that of the nokia 3220. The phone also has a good memory. With 50 pix and five music tones, plus a downloaded game, I have only used 20% of the memory. With the nokia 3220 30 small pix and 3 polyphonic ringtones, over 75% of the memory is used. And for the people complaining about not enough memory for an MP3 phone, it is not meant to be an MP3 phone. There are phones that are for mp3s and the razr is not one of them! Plus if you drop this phone, nothing happens. I have dropped on a hard kithen floor, concrete, and other hard surfaces numerous times and nothing has ever happened.

I had tested the USB charger by charging my iPod on the US 110V before leaving but couldn't test the 220V until I arrived at my destination subsequently finding that the unit did not work at all.

Alas, it arrived as a 7.5 X 3 X 2.5 inch speaker. And so I lowered my expectations. Then I tested it and I was very pleasantly surprised. It is louder than I expected from this size, not to mention its beautiful design.I first played the Fugoo in my sizable living room, connecting it to my Dell Optiplex SX260 PC and with Richard Ashcroft’s Bitter Sweet Symphony in the external disk drive. I connected the stereo cable from the Fugoo to the PC, pushed the “On” button and heard “Speaker’s on, Blue Tooth’s off”. The music began to play and I turned the volume on the speaker to maximum. The sound filled my quiet living room and all the way to the adjacent kitchen. I walked back and forth and liked what I heard. The multi directional (360 degrees) speakers are certainly effective. With the music still playing I disconnected the Fugoo and plugged in the PC’s small Infinity speakers for comparison. The Infinity speakers are louder but only because the system also has a small subwoofer to boost bass. I am impressed by the audio volume of the Fugoo even at maximum volume; I detected no distortion at all.Next I carried the Fugoo to the deck of my building’s swimming pool where very loud music will prove unpleasant for residents on lower floors. I pushed the “On” button of the Fugoo again and heard “battery is about half”. The device announces how much battery power is left. The next announcement was “speaker is on, use the Bluetooth device to connect”. Getting the Fugoo to connect wirelessly to my cell phone was easy and straight forward. It also announced when powering off. Music blasted on the Fugoo as I stepped 30 feet away. It was sufficiently loud for good entertainment without causing irritation to neighbors; just what you need at a community swimming pool.There is a large selection of loud speakers out there to choose from, depending on one’s need. The Fugoo Tough can entertain a small group very well. I like it a lot.",80,0 +81,"very difficult to get a clean screen + +In my attempts to put this screen protector on, I was unable to get a satisfactory application. There are not directions other than two small stickers that are labeled 1st and 2st (no, not a typo on my part). Despite my efforts to remove any lint or dust with the included cloth from the screen before placing the protector on my phone, there was always something underneath the protector. I ended up throwing out all 4 of the protectors and my phone is still without a screen protector. Also, this only covers the actual screen on the front of the HTC One M8, so if you are looking for something that goes all the way to the edges of the phone, look elsewhere. I have no idea what their "Lifetime Warranty" is for because it says to contact their service center for assistance and there is nothing on the packaging with a phone number or email address for them.For what little I did use the phone with the screen protector on, it had a sticky feeling the made my finger feel like it was dragging on the screen. I guess this may be partly more noticeable because I'm used to the smooth glass of the phone screen, but I've had other screen protectors that did not give me that dragging feeling.",81,0 +82,"Best Phone / Plan for the Money PERIOD! + +Nothing beats ATT's goPhone rates and this phone has kicked it up to the next level. I was using a goPhone before and was surprised when I saw the packaging for this phone that the plan rates had dropped to $0.10/min with NO commitment. I think the phone is great but I haven't used any other smart phones before, but it performs as well as one of my daughter's 4th gen. ipod touch. The Android interface is nice but it does take some time and work to learn how to use it, not as intuitive as apple's OS but I like the flexibility. I was able to use the ""old"" goPhone for $100 per year, I'm guessing that the smart phone will run me ~$230 per year ($5/mo. 200 messages, $5/mo. 10mb + a couple of $25/500MB, and about $5/mo phone) that's less than $20 PER MONTH. All the extra ""hardware"" will really eat up a battery so you have to be prudent to use the ""power panel"" widget to keep WiFi, GPS, 3G, and BT turned off when you aren't using them. I was REALLY surprised to find this phone had GPS for only $150 and that feature, and GOOGLE Sky work very well.If you are looking for a budge phone where you have full control over the cost then this is for you. You don't HAVE to buy a data plan, but I've found that I get by perfectly well (google account sync, periodic checking static web sites, downloading games) with the plans I mention above, because everything carries over month to month so you buy the 500MB packages when you get low and buy the 10MB packages to keep your balance ""alive"".

Its reasonably priced and is one of the easiest products to apply.",85,0 +86,"You'll get what you pay for + +Now that the phone is only $29.99, it's a fairly good deal. It can take calls, send and receive texts and e-mails, take photos, play music downloaded unto it, and do very basic web browsing. It CANNOT play videos or music you find online. Over the past month, it's played youtube videos successfully about 3% of the time. A lot of the apps, particularly the Maps app for looking up directions, simply don't work. As a matter of fact, the phone bugs out a lot.Overall, if you're not a big smartphone user, $29.99 is a great deal for this phone. I paid $100 with an upgrade, and am justifiably very disappointed. If you want to actually watch videos or use a phone for more than basic functions, try something else.",86,0 +87,"I like it! + +I just got the phone yesterday and love it.My only complaint is that it didn't come with a holster - And every phone I ever got came with one. So that was a surprised and I had to go out and buy one. Not that I can complain seeing how the phone was free from T-mobile.comAll the features and stuff I like. The speakerphone is loud enough for me to use in my house. Out in public it won't be loud enough, I don't think. But I can't complain because I wouldn't use the speakerphone in public. It's no one elses business what I'm talking about and I think it's rude to use the speaker in public.The only thing I don't like is that the phone seems a lil retarded when it's charging. It'll keep beeping to tell me it's done. And not like, BEEP BEEP BEEP. But just every so often out of the no where it beeps, then beeps again. It's like, ok? Also, I wish I could remove the date from showing on the screen so I could see my entire wallpaper and I wish screensavers that I set as the wallpaper would be active instead of just sitting there like a regular photo.I also don't like the ringer. There is just vibrate, just ring or vibrate and then ring... My old Sanyo phone from Sprint had ring AND vibrate simutaneously. I wish this phone did that. Other then that though it's good except for having to get used to it.The camera works better then I thought it would and the size is pretty decent.My only confusion is knowing the difference betweena text message, picture message and emails... What makes them different? I don't really understand that and don't want to get charged.Reception and everything is fine for me. I also love T-Mobile. I've called their customer service to activate and just for questions and they have always been 100% helpful and kind and never pushy or anything. I love them. Even at the stores they are super nice.You can also view everything on their website or call. Such as used minutes, how many minutes left etc. You can even add numbers to your phone book through their website.The phone is great and T-Mobile is the best.The phone I recommand to everyone unless you want the step up V600 or just a totally different phone. And regardless of your phone preference... I definatly recommand T-Mobile.",87,0 +88,"Simply amazing. Wow. + +Have you ever gotten a new phone and thought, ""wow this phone makes my other phones seem so dated""? I can say that this is that phone, the LG G2 is AMAZING...funny thing is, my last two phones were the HTC One (AT&T;) and the iPhone 5 (AT&T;). I am that guy who buys the latest and greatest when I think it will make a difference in my life and I justify my phone purchases with the excuse that my phone is always on me(and I used to be an Apple fanboy and I have owned every iPhone). I use it for work, games, news, remote for my tv, sports, email, camera...Oh yeah, I use it to make phone calls too. Anyways, I haven't been in love with a phone like this since I went to the original iPhone. I hope you find my review helpful and beneficial to your purchase regardless if you buy one or not.The Bad - Let's just get this out of the way.The case is a glossy plastic. The phone is a finger print magnet. I am slightly self conscious when I let people see the G2- I feel like I have very dirty hands and I'm a chemist which means I am washing my hands regularly. The phone is a dirt and oil magnet.The other downside is no expandable memory but I have a hard time using 32gb of memory anyways so Im not complaining but some of you out there might want more memory.The GOOD - Get ready for a long list. I will do my best to put what is important first just in case I bore you and you want to move on.Battery - The G2 has the longest battery life of any phone I've used. I regularly use my phone for a multitude of tasks. With my iPhone 5 and HTC One I usually could make it through the day without a recharge, but without a doubt I would give those phones a full charge when I slept. It has been 4 days since I have owned the G2 and have only charged it over night twice. All I can say is ""WOW"". Finally a smart phone with a battery that makes sense.Software - The LG software is really well thought out and not gimmicky like the Galaxy S4. My favorite feature is the double tap of the screen when the phone is in sleep mode which turns it on, and this feature also works to turn the phone off. No more need to find some long and flat power button on the top of the phone which at times isn't easy to find on the phones because at night you don't know whether your phone is upside down or not. I know it isn't a huge deal to find the power button, but double tapping anywhere on the screen to turn it off/on is a very useful feature. And no it doesn't accidentally turn on in my pocket. The software can detect random touches from the double tap. Other features of the software are a long press of the volume button brings up the camera and it loads within seconds or the notepad for quick notes. I am finding more useful software features as I move along, for example today for my meeting reminder which popped up 15 minutes before the start, a ""silent mode"" option popped up along and I clicked it and my phone went silent for the scheduled time of the meeting. No more forgetting to turn my phone to silent during meetings. Also when I am in an app and I receive a text, a little box pops up with the text and it has a reply box so I can actually reply to texts without exiting the app I'm currently using. If I don't reply the box disappears within a few seconds just like a notification on the other phones and the app in use just runs like nothing happened. With the large screen the pop up box is non obtrusive. If this was an iPhone the box would take up a significant part of the screen but on the G2 it's just like a notification popping up on any other phone. Again it's a simple feature but it makes sense and I love it. Other than that the phone is running Android 4.2.2 which is really smooth and pleasant. In comparison to iOS6 this makes Apple's software seem dated and unimaginative and compared to the HTC One software it is refined and the One is also running Android 4.1.2.Screen - Holy cow this screen is the best screen I have ever laid eyes on. The screen is huge and the bezel around the screen is tiny. Whites are white, blacks are black, colors aren't overly saturated and the resolution is on par with the best of the best. Simply put, this is the best screen of the top phones, iPhone, Galaxy S4 and the HTC One. When I show it off to my stubborn iPhone friends all they say is wow it's so clear and big. It's almost as if I'm holding a mini HD TV in my hand.Sound - For those audiophiles out there, this phone does allow for 24 bit music and it really does sound fantastic. With headphones in this phone blows the competition out of the water and for the record I am an audiophile too. With the speaker the phone is loud, definitely louder than the iPhone 5 but not as loud and clear as the HTC One. In this comparison, the HTC One wins for the speakers but the G2 is no slouch and I find myself listening to my music on the speaker frequently.Camera - Again, best camera of the bunch. I've read about the Nokia having a 41 megapixel sensor which Im sure rocks, but the G2 compared to the HTC One and the iPhone 5 wins hands down. I have a black dog and cat and whenever I took pictures with the iPhone 5 they came out looking like black shadows with eyes. It was disappointing to have such cute animals misrepresented. The HTC One definitely gets the colors right on pictures but the zoom lacked because it only has a 4 megapixel camera. With displays as clear as they are now, 4 megapixel pictures are easily pixelated when you zoom in. The G2 has a camera to replace all point and shoot cameras. My dog and cat are visible! The camera is fast even in low light and takes fantastic pictures.Performance - The G2 has a quad core snapdragon 800 2.3 ghz processor which is the fastest available in all smartphones. In normal people language...it's blazing fast and buttery smooth. I hate to say this but the iPhone and HTC one seem laggy. And I hate to say that because in real world use those phones are more than adequate, but once I go back and play with the HTC One and iPhone5 I think,"" man these phones are slow."" Using the app manager I frequently see 5-10 programs open and running but none of that affects the performance.Build - The phone is plastic but not cheap feeling like the Galaxy S4. If you pop the back cover off of a Galaxy S4, the back really feels like a flimsy piece of plastic, whereas the G2 does not have a removable back which gives the phone a much better build quality and sturdiness. It also has a rounded back which has a very nice feel in your hand similar to the HTC One but better. The HTC One and the iPhone 5 have straight edges vs the G2's rounded edges which makes the G2 much more comfortable to hold. I loved the aluminum on the HTC One and the iPhone 5, it makes for a sturdy build and quality feel, but the edges used to scratch and dent from normal usage, because the edges were so fine, which got annoying quickly. I truly appreciate the G2's build quality and attention to detail even though it doesn't use aluminum it definitely has a premium feel in a comfortable package. Looks wise, the case of the phone is nothing unique or special but I spend most of my time looking at the beautiful screen anyways so I don't have much to complain about the phone in that respect.Verdict - I honestly thought we have reached a point with hardware where there really won't be much innovation anymore because everything has become so fast, high resolution, etc. that the next innovation wave would be in software. Boy was I wrong and pleasantly so. Moving the volume buttons to the back makes perfect sense. With phones getting larger, and bezels skinnier, it doesnt really make sense to have the volume buttons on the side. With small bezels it becomes rather necessary to hold the phone on it's edges where typically you would find the power and volume buttons which means while watching videos it could be easy to bump them accidentally. You need to reach for the buttons on typical phones vs on the G2 the buttons are where your fingers rest naturally which makes turning the volume up and down rather easy. And the screen with minimal borders is gorgeous. Sure the resolution on the HTC One and Galaxy S4 are great just like the G2, but who wouldn't want a bigger screen in the same size package? That extra half of an inch does make for a better experience when it comes to phones(size does matter).I have used the Galaxy Note II and a few of the other phablets(phone but tablet sized) and they are just too big to justify the functionality over form. LG fit a huge screen into a minimalist package which I can truly say it is phenomenal. And the best part of this phone...I can see my dog and cat! Yes I adore them and love them and am always taking pictures of them to send to friends and family. There has not been one person that I have showed the phone off to who wasn't amazed by it and getting an iPhone user to be amazed by a Droid phone is pretty freaking rare.For once in a long time, I can say that this phone will last me at least a year without me getting the urge to upgrade and that's saying a lot. I was the guy who waited in line for 12 hours to get the 3g and 3gs. I can without a doubt recommend this phone to all smartphone users and if you do get it I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.Update 9/22/2013 - I love this phone more and more each day. It charges really quickly. When I get actual numbers on speed to charge to 100% I will post them.Update 9/26/2013 - Yesterday I woke up to LG's native email app crashing continuously even after a restart. I deleted my email accounts and it still was happening so I did a factory reset which eliminated the problem. I then emailed LG's customer service to see if they know about this and I got a good understanding of how their customer service works and quite frankly it is terrible compared to the competition. The phone itself still commands 5 stars but customer service is no better than 1 star and here is why: 1. They asked for proof of purchase to validate that I bought the phone within the last year (the phone hasn't even been out more than two weeks...really?) 2. They didn't answer my question, the reply was I may need to send the phone in 3. Sending the phone in was my responsibility, they don't send a prepaid package like the competitors 3. 5-7 days until I would get my device back. So if you account for shipping I could be without a phone for two weeks (LG should know better most people can't go more than a day without their smartphones .If you compare Apple's customer service, they have stores that you can walk into (with an appointment) and get your phone swapped out with in minutes. Their reps also can help solve problems like frequent app crashing and it's all included with their 12 month warranty. If you don't live close to a store Apple will mail you a box and it will have priority shipping. You can get your phone replaced within a couple days. Sony doesn't have in store replacements like Apple, but they do ship boxes to send your device in also with priority speed.If you are accustomed to Apple's customer service or another company's that you like, factor it into your decision when making the switch. I can tell you with absolute certainty that LG's service is awful.9/27/2013 - Luckily I was within AT&T;'s 14 day exchange policy. The camera would not focus and continually shook...the replacement works perfect. Apparently I was the second person with this issue so keep a lookout for this if you pick up a G2. Charging from 50% to 100% only takes an hour using a nexus 7 charger.",88,0 +89,"Great alternative for HTC Droid DNA + +I purchased this product to use with the HTC Droid DNA, which has built-in Qi compatibility (no sleeves required). So far, I love it! I place my phone on the pad at night when I go to bed around 9-10 p.m. and it is fully charged at 4:45 a.m. when I wake up. I have not owned any other wireless charging pad (for phones anyway), so I cannot compare it to the LG or Nokia pads. I can confirm that it does not make any noises - there are no beeps when you set it down or when it completes charging. For those who sleep next to their phone and are concerned about noise, you have nothing to worry about. Of course, if your phone normally makes noises when you charge it, then you may have to alter your phone settings, but this has nothing to do with the pad. The pad is constructed with a slight incline, but the rubberized texture of the Droid DNA keeps it from sliding off. If you have a phone with a smooth back, you may have issues with this. Otherwise, construction seems to be high quality. The greatest advantage I have experienced so far, compared to charging via the USB cable, is that I can pick up my phone quickly while it is charging (to check a text message or email, or take a quick call) and replace it on the charging pad without fiddling with wires. This may not sound like a big deal to some, but I have certainly enjoyed the freedom.I highly recommend this product for HTC Droid DNA owners (especially since HTC put that annoying cover over the USB port). This makes charging a breeze!",89,0 +90,"doesn't fit android in otter box + +This case does not fit an Android phone in otter box. Verizon has one that clips on phone but those always break after a couple of months. Does anyone make a belt clip phone case large enough that fit Android in Otter Box?",90,1 +91,"Good upgrade, but avoid T-Mobile + +This is a good upgrade from the 120. Better battery life and a slightly updated styling make this another solid phone from Moto.

Definitely not as weird looking as Sumsng phones, and much better quality (build and voice) than the latter.But I'm still not hot on T-Mobile. Count me as one of the many, many unhappy T-Mobile customers.

I have had iPhones, where the user interface is just so boring, even with all those apps that cost you money.The Nokia has wonderful Nokia apps already installed, such as Nokia Drive, which gives you directions while you are driving with a talking attendant, it is super accurate and fun to use. You get Nokia Music, which is a free music service with 1500 playlists put together by expert music people, very good and it's free! You get ESPN, Nokia City Lens, which is where you hold your camera up while you are walking a city street and it will give you information about the area and what you are pointing at, it is really cool. And there are other free Nokia apps as well, like Camera Extras, that let you do things like take action shots and panorama photos. There's a Six Flags app, PGA Tour, Contacts Transfer, The Caddie +, Univision, Groupon, Soundtracker that connects you to Internet Radio for free, let's you get concert tickets, look at lyrics, share comments with your friends on their music, et. There's Counters, that keeps track of calls and data usuage, Creative Studio, which is a photo editing app, and so much more!As a Windows Phone, you will have 7GB of Free Cloud Storage (which is the most for any Cloud Storage offered) for all your files and music and apps on Sky Drive, with the option to upgrade at a cost.The camera takes great pictures with the Carl Zeiss lense and there are ways to adjust you settings. The phone takes great 720p videos, which is a whole lot better than 1080p in a lesser camera.The Windows 7.5 user interface is super easy to use, and it is very pretty to look at. There are a ton of apps in the MarketPlace, and the most popular ones are there, many of them are free.The beutiful cyan body on this phone is a matte finish, so it doesn't show fingerprints, it is made of polycarbonate, which is the same hard plastic that eye glass frames are made.

No charge at all. So I took a chance on this product -- works great. Charged from 70% to 94% in 30 minutes. It has the power needed. Nice product as well. Well constructed and a bonus that the blades fold for travel.Even better... costs less and this one has a six-foot cord. Recommended for Kindle Fire owners.

Then I went to AT&T;'s site to find out what the 3G coverage was for Manhattan & it was 100%... so I don't know what's up with that.There is also a problem with the firmware, having had 2 of these phones - the phone will reboot randomly.

I was too impatient to wait and take advantage of the awesome penny deal on Amazon plus I was exchanging my Focus S for the Titan so I took to plunge. (The Focus S is an awesome phone too and I wrote a review last week on Amazon about it. I just wanted to try out the latest and greatest so I traded it in for the Titan)The Titan's screen is HUGE but the phone still fits nicely in to one had. HTC has designed this phone beautifully and almost the entire front of the device is filled by the screen. The bezel on the left and right side is almost nonexistent. This phone is gorgeous. The screen has a resolution of 480x800 which by today's standard is a bit low but you will be hard pressed to even realize this during everyday use. The Windows Phone OS looks fantastic on this screen and text is very easy to read. Videos and pics look outstanding and the super LCD really nails the correct colors accurately. You will love this screen.Under the hood the Titan is powered by a 1.5 GHz single core processor. I am not sure why other OS's require dual core processors because Windows Phone OS runs buttery smooth on this phone. No matter what I throw at this phone nothing slows it down. Microsoft has really done a wonderful job keeping this OS lightning fast.You get 16 GB of storage which for me is plenty. I have a ton of apps, games, music and videos on my phone and still have 9 GB free. Unfortunately there is no memory card slot so the 16 GB is all this phone will ever have. You do get access to 25 GB of free storage on Microsoft's SkyDrive which is integrated well in to the OS so you can always store your pics and docs in the cloud if you run low on storage.ATT markets this as a 4G phone but it isn't true 4G LTE but just the HSPA+ network which is still plenty fast. In Boston my average download speed is right around 4Mbps a second. Not too shabby at all. The call quality so far seems top notch but quite honestly I have only made a few. The signal strength in Boston isn't that great to begin with so at times I am running with only 2 bars of strength. It doesn't seem to impact calls or the internet so as long as things run well I do not care how many bars I have. It is something I will pay close attention to in the coming days and will update my review if things take a turn for the worse. So far things are fantastic though.The sound on this phone is great. It can get VERY loud when using headphones so be careful how far you crank up the volume. The external speaker is quite good for a phone but can get a little distorted when you max out the volume. The phone does not come with ear buds so you will need your own set. This really isn't an issue as most of the earbuds that come with phones are junk but I did find it odd that none were included.I don't want to talk about the OS too much as this is a phone review but for those who have not used Windows Phone yet you will be amazed at how awesome it is. This is the future of mobile now. Once you use this OS going back to iOS or Android is very hard and you will wonder to yourself how you ever got along without Windows Phone and it's brilliant Live Tiles and super smooth operation.While the app store is not nearly as large as Apples or Googles I have found that almost every app I used on my iPhone 4 has a counterpart on Windows Phone. You will also find the Windows Phone versions of your favorite apps look, feel and operate better than the ones on iOS. Wait to you open apps like USA Today or IMDB. They are truly magnificent. If you are a gamer and own an XBOX 360 then you really should be on Windows Phone as XBOX Live is integrated right in the OS and compatible XBOX Live games on Windows Phone include achievements so even on the go you can get those glorious little achievement notifications that some people have become addicted to!That is it for now. I have to get back to playing with my new phone! If you have any questions please feel free to leave comments on my review and I will try to answer them as soon as possible.UPDATE 11/24/2011 - I have had the Titan now for a couple of days and my opinion that this is a fantastic phone is just getting stronger. The battery life is outstanding. I took it off the charger yesterday and used it quite heavily the entire day and when I went to sleep at 11:30 PM I still have about 9 percent left. This phone will easily get you through an entire day.I have also now played with the camera and can say that the 8 megapixel camera takes great photos. Outside in daylight is where this camera really shines. I took some panoramic shot with the built in software and they came out quite awesome. The colors were very accurate. The video recorder works very well too and I got some great outdoor footage in glorious 720p. Taking pics inside the house at night with the flash on hurts the quality a bit but I still think the inside pics look a lot better than the ones I take on my iPhone 4. I think you will be quite happy with the camera's performance.UPDATE 11/25/2011 - Office is absolutely awesome on the Titan. While you don't get to see more of your documents on the screen compared to smaller phones due to the resolution what you do get are documents that are much easier to create and edit. I have noticed this especially while using Excel as each cell is much bigger and easier to manipulate. This phone just keeps getting better and better.UPDATE 12/03/2011 - 4G speeds. After researching 4G speeds on wpcentral.com it appears that AT&T; may be throttling their Windows Phones. In Boston where we have HSPA+ speeds I should be seeing twice the download speeds that I am currently getting. I still average around 4 Mbps which is fine for just about everything I have done so far but it sure would be nice to be up around 8. I am still leaving the review at 5 stars because the phone is still incredible but this is something you may want to consider if you are planning to switch over to AT&T;.",99,0 +100,"DISSATIFIED + +I BOUGHT TWO OF THESE CHARGERS.

Buttons impossible to press + +This case fits fine, but I had to completely cut off the portion of the case covering the buttons because they were virtually impossible to press. Also the hole covering the flash is too small so it reflects a bunch of the flash and ruins any photos utilizing it. I still need to try to use a Dremel or something to expand the hole.

Just received the Bose QC-15 headphones and the mobile communications kit. The mic is too exceptional, it is very clear for any one on the other end of the phone provided there is no background noise. The mic picks up everything, unless you are in a very quiet environment people on the other end of the call hear everything and more clearly than if they are in the same room. It does not take much background noise to make this mic unusable. I can not use them in my vehicle and I suspect a noisy environment like an airport terminal would be much the same.",102,0 +103,"Very Good...with small modification + +First, the sound is good for a small room or for background music. It will not overwhelm you with super loud booming music. Overall, louder and better than I expected for the small size and price (on sale). No connection problem for me, even at moderate distances.At first, the blinking blue LED did not bother me. But it is quite bright and started to annoy me. At first, I planned on just putting a sticker on the front, to obscure the LED. But I had a few spare minutes and decided to try to block the light from the inside. There are 6 small screws on the bottom, four hidden by the rubber feet and one by the manufacturer's sticker. The rest of the disassembly is very intuitive. Removing the small LED board (two tiny screws) is simple. I just placed a little bit of foam in the top hole... Stuffing it in with a toothpick. Reassembled the speaker. Now I can see the blue flashing, but it is not blinding or annoying. Really, probably 8 minutes. Kind of fun.Now, it's just about perfect for me. I recommend this if you can get it for a good price!",103,0 +104,"Best android phone yet + +This phone is amazing, I've had my fair share of phone. I went from the Palm pre plus to the droid eris, to the droid incredible, to the htc rezound, to this. Let's just get into it.Design: Very thin and sleek, very nice. The only complaint I have is the phone is very slippery. This does not remain an issue for me as I got a case right away, but, if you like your phone naked it's buttery, just like it's OS!OS: I've always liked the look of AOSP android, but many didn't. It kind of felt like linux, unless you put some stuff on top of it, it was just kind of, meh. ICS really polished that up. This now feels like a phone with a skin on it, with many features.Performance (OS performance) Wonderful. 1.2ghz of dual core and 1 gig of ram is a good combination. I struggle trying to find any lag, and everything is very buttery and nice. Scrolling and pinch to zoom is buttery as ever. OS performance is like the design (buttery) except in a good way!Speaker and earpiece: Speaker is not as loud as many would prefer, but a simple app from the market fixes that. The speaker sounds nice! Earpiece: It's hard for an earpiece to be not good, it's plenty loud and sounds crisp and clear, not much else to say.Screen: Amazing, 4.65 inches of Samoled HD goodness, best screen on the market, and very nice. Colors are crisp, clear and bright. Pentile is unnoticable, not near unnoticable, unnoticable.Signal and data: Many complain about pour 3G signal performance, my area (at least my house) has horrible signal and I got normal signal compared with my other phones. Data-4G LTE, I get 40 down and 13 up on average, 'nuff said.Battery: Not the best, but the best of any LTE phone. However, I'm a major modder so I have a ton of custom kernels and rom's, I get a good 14 or 15 hours of heavy usage. If you guys want some advice on stuff to do find the Galaxy nexus forum at rootzwiki.com, I am many other people are very willing to help, and will help.Camera: Front facing camera is as good as any other, it serves it's purpose for skype calls, I've done it. Rear camera is not too good, but it's decent, and good enough for a phone. (I'm a photographer and have spent 8,000 dollars on lenses and have 3 DSLR's for the record ;) ) The zero shutter lag for me almost makes up for it, it's a very nice feature.Vs. Rezound. This is opinion here, but I personally switched to the Nexus after 3 rezounds. Many Rezounds have issues, more than 50 percent I would say. I went through 3, and later found out all the others that store had had issues. My local store has sold 18 rezounds, and returned 48, because of returns due to issues. I'm happy I made the switch, besides camera, I'd say everything is better. Screen, performance, everything all around. HTC sends out phones like they put on the market a phone their kid drew at school. The nexus has quality, and much work went into it, to make it nothing but perfect.",104,0 +105,"Works well, but longer would be better. + +I have an iPad and have been looking for a stylus to be able to use it like a writing tablet. I have tried the Adonit Jot Pro, Targus and Griffin Stylus, and now the New Trent stylus. They all have their good and bad points but this is my experience with the New Trent product and how it compared to the others.Size: The stylus is short. I am a pretty tall guy and I have long, skinny fingers. Short writing instruments are a challenge for me if they are not long enough for the top of the instrument to sit in the space between my thumb and hand. This stylus isn't long enough and so I found myself having to change the way I held it. I found that unnatural but not difficult to do.Weight: This stylus, compared to the weighted Jot Pro, is extremely light. If you like holding on to your writing instrument and feeling some weight, this won't do it for you. But it turns out the weight is a plus for me considering the short size. I found that I was not fighting the weight to keep control because the stylus was shorter than I like.Not-a-Stylus: This stylus has a ball point pen built in. It's the first stylus I have tried that had an extra capability, and I have found myself actually using the pen as much as the stylus side! The pen writes smoothly and evenly, and is easy to expose and retract. It is a really nice feature to have.Stylus: Ok, so how about that capacitive mesh stylus? Looking at the photo I didn't really have an expectation for the stylus end, so when I got it I was a little surprised. At first it reminded me of a Q-Tip that wasn't wound tight. It doesn't sag off the side or anything but it is ""soft"". The Targus stylus is a rubber tip and is hard, giving almost nothing when using it to write or draw. The Adonit jot Pro is a hard metal ball. The New Trent stylus felt much less like a pen and more like a paint brush, making for very smooth transition to the surface when putting the stylus down to write. There was no hard, abrupt transition.Function: This is the biggie for me. How well does it actually work? And how does that compare to the others I have used? New Trent wins, hands down. Surprised? I was too, but I have a very specific reason: it doesn't stick! My iPad is protected by a BodyGardz screen protector. The Adonit Jot Pro has a plastic disk on the end and it grabs the screen like crazy! I love the weight but with the screen protector it just isn't very functional. Using the Targus and Griffin styli they tend to hop or skip as they stick and then release from the display. Granted, this is only when I am trying to write notes and I press too hard but that's how I use it. The New Trent stylus is a smooth movement. For me that is most important.I would change two things about it: length and weight. Longer and heavier would give it an easier to grasp, more solid feel. Would I buy it again? Maybe. If they make the changes I recommend, absolutely.",105,0 +106,"Good reliable phone + +Having owned this phone for quite a long time now, I will say that this phone has been a very reliable phone for me. It has held up from the drops and oops and still keeps going strong. The biggest disadvantage today for this phone is that you are limited to what version of Android your carrier decides to stop at before no longer upgrading. It is well capable of handling the later versions of the android operating system but unfortunately for me, my carrier has discontinued android OS updates at 2.3. But if you are willing to live with that then this phone is a good reliable choice. Battery life is good but like most batteries these days, they start to dwindle in lifespan after a couple years and you are stuck at either upgrading or spending a premium for Motorola's replacement battery.This phone does it all well and in my opinion works better than an Iphone.",106,0 +107,"Awesome powerbank + +I got one of these (the 18,000 mAh version) through a Kickstarter campaign (just ended 5/31/13) and was kind of surprised to see it on Amazon so quickly. So far, I really like this. I've charged myKindle Paperwhite 3G, 6"" High Resolution Display with Built-in Light, Free 3G + Wi-Fi - Includes Special Offers, mySamsung Galaxy Tab 2 (7-Inch, Wi-Fi), and mySamsung Galaxy S III/S3 GT-I9300 Factory Unlocked Phone - International Version (Pebble Blue)all on the same initial charge. The phone and Kindle still had about 1/2 charge left when I started, but the tablet was completely dead when I plugged it in and all three charged to 100%. I'm not sure how much is left in the bank now (>25% according to the light) but it's enough to turn on the flashlight, which is quite bright!This has a full rubber coating that's nice and grippy and will keep this from slipping off the table when your cat jumps up. It's slightly shorter and wider than my phone, and about twice as thick. It's able to charge 2 USB things at once, and comes with a 2-in-1 micro USB/iPhone (old style) charging cord. If you want to charge your Galaxy Tablet, you'll have to provide your own plug. (Not a problem for me - I'm just happy it will charge the Galaxy tab at all.) It's got a flashlight - click the on/off switch TWICE to turn that on or off. It's about 2.5 times as heavy as my phone (using the scientific process of holding one in each hand and guestimating).I charged it over night, so I don't know how long it actually takes to charge up. But my phone, tablet, and Kindle charged in just a few hours.It says the cycle life is 500 uses. I've had it less than a week, so I can't vouch for that. But it's first few uses went quite well. It didn't get hot (though the rubber could have masked that) and it charged several things.Someday someone will invent a two ounce, 50,000 mAh battery that will charge itself just from the air in ten minutes.

Until then, this is a pretty good option.",107,0 +108,"Big upgrade from old lg flip tracfone + +My old Tracfone died and I wasn't ready to dish out the big bucks for an Android or Iphone, so I bought this one. It's NOT a smartphone, but is somewhat similar to one. It has many more features than my old LG flip phone from Tracfone. I've had it a few weeks now and love it. The voice quality is very good, the camera is just okay, it's easy to use most of the features but haven't figured out how to use the internet part yet. Went to Starbucks to get free wifi and noodle around with it, but not much luck. Will have to ask for help on this I'm afraid. I'm very pleased with this phone so far and would definitely recommend it. I also bought a decorative case and clear screen protectors.",108,0 +109,"Had no use as not able to be used in my area.... + +Could NOT (after specifically asking) use this phone in my area therefore, it was of no use AND I purchased a $50 non-refundable service card as well! NOT HAPPY AT ALL!!",109,1 +110,"Good Screens, But No Instructions + +Although they are labeled ""Luxmo"" the screen that arrived where called the ""Professional ScreenGuard"". This 3-Pack is an excellent value. For less than $2.00 you get 3 screens and shipping is free. If you bought a comparable product at Best Buy Online you would spend about $14.The screens themselves are a ""hair"" smaller than the actual screen length of the HTC One S, but provide more than acceptable coverage. This is important if you're like me and intend on owning your smartphone for at least 2 years and want the screen to remain new looking for the entire period.Although I've used protective screens before, I was expecting instructions to be included in this purchase. After all, they have no idea if it's my first or millionth time applying them a smartphone. In addition, some manufacturers ask you to apply them dry, while others suggest a minute amount of water or ""soapy water"". Applying them exactly as the manufacturer instructs will protect you, your phone and ensure that any ""defective product"" claim you could have to file later is honored.In the absence of instructions I used caution in applying the product. First, I cleaned my phone's screen with cleanDr, an alcohol and ammonia free cleaning fluid. I wiped it dry with a new soft 100% polyester towel designed for computer monitors, HDTVs etc. Then I placed the microfiber cloth provided in the packaging over the phone's screen to keep dust from collecting while I peeled the screen's first protective film off. Because this manufacturer supplied no instructions I applied the first screen dry. Each screen has a protective film on both sides. You peel the film labeled ""1"", then place the uncovered side to your phone, align it, then press, then remove the film labeled ""2"" and press again. I used a credit card to coax bubbles off the phone's surface after I applied the screen.It took some time, but I got 99% of the bubbles out. A few very very small ones remain, but none that impact usability when the screen is on. But when it's off, if you look at it closely you can see them - especially if you're anal retentive about your phone's appearance like I am.All in all, the screens are high quality, dirt cheap and application was simple. My only suggestion is that the seller provides a small typed card that reminds the buyer to clean their phone first, how to apply and finally how to remove bubbles. A new user will ruin a screen or fingerprint it to oblivion without instructions.",110,0 +111,"Love this Case!!! + +I wanted a rugged case with a kickstand that could protect the phone if I happened to drop it.Bonus: MADE IN THE USA!!! You gotta love that!!!Price:Comparable (if not lower) than other cases that provide this amount of protection!Size:I will say the case is huge! However, so is the phone compared to my old Photon 4G. However, I like the extra thickness. To me the Galaxy S4 is a bit too thin and slick!Weight:As for weight (with the phone in the case), it seems heavy. That is after using the S4 without a case for a few days. But, with a case designed to protect your phone like this one does, is going to add extra weight. With that said, (by holding one in one hand and the other in the other hand), it feels lighter than my old Photon (without a case on!). Also, it feels lighter than my buddy's iPhone 4S while in its Otterbox(OB) Commuter case!Feel:I will say that it feels a little slick to the touch, kind of like an OB Commuter. However, it has enought rubber on the sides where I don't think it will be an issue. On a positive note, it goes in and out of my pocket a LOT smother than my OB Defender!Style:I like the style. It looks and feels manly and rugged. Personally I like the way it looks. I also love how they did the camera port on the back. I didn't get this case to protect my phone from dirt and water, so that is not a worry for me. I like that it is easy clean the camera lens. Also, the flash does not bounce off the edges of the case and wash out photos (like my OB Defender case did on my Photon). One of the deciding factors of getting this phone was to use the camera. Esp of my son while being out and about. So I'm extremely happy the case does not interfere with that. With that said, there is no protection over the lens. So if it happens to fall onto gravel or something raised right were the camera lens is, that might be an issue...Ruggedness:I'm not going to do any of my own testing! So if you are looking for results from drop tests, etc. you can stop reading hear. Check out Trident's videos: http://www.tridentcase.com/media/videos.aspx, there are some great vids on there regarding their cases. So, here are my thoughts on it. To me it feels like it will provide as much (if not more) protection that what my OB Defender did for my Photon. After it gets dropped a time or two (or thrown across the room by my 2 year old :D ) I'll update this post more.The One downside: Kickstand!How do you take off the kickstand!?!?Not that I needed to, but the idea of the bike mount is really nice. However there are no written instructions on how to do it correctly. Just a small graphic that did make sense to me. But, I finally figure it out. DON'T PULL it out away from the case!!! You'll tweak the hinge and either make it loose (like I did...) or break it. NOTE: It slides out.Here is how to do it:Start with the kickstand in the open position.Grab the kickstand with Thumb on hinge.With a good grip, **slide** it across the back of the case, moving away from the hinge side.It will slide the click.From there align the tabs that hold it in place with the openings for the tabs and lift it out from the case.To install, just reverse the process.Once you get it down, it comes off and on fairly easily, but takes some effort. Which is nice...I wouldn't want a bump on the trail to knock it out of the bike mount.Customer Service:EXCELLENT!!! Okay, so as you learned above, I bent the hinge and made it loose.

I just didn't understand what the little graphic in the book was trying to telling me. ***Trident: Please post a video on how to take it off correctly for others!!!*** Any ways, I called and told them what happened. Without any hesitation they asked me to email them my shipping address and they would send me a replacement right away. No other questions or hassles. Now that is Customer Service!!!

After 8 hours, it went up only one bar and as soon as i plugged something into it to charge, that bar went away within a minute.

A highly recommend it!",115,0 +116,"Superb phone, great network-Update 1 year later + +I was a long time T-Mobile customer, and then was wooed by the iPhone4 and AT&T.; After a year of frustration over typing on a touchscreen (maddening) and a total dead zone at work, I paid up an early termination fee and bought this T-Mobile Blackberry.Like other reviewers stated, the phone works and works well.The little keyboard is FANTASTIC! So much easier to type quickly and accurately as compared to a touchscreen keyboard.I get 5 bars of service at my desk, where AT&T; could only manage ""no service"" or one bar. I get the wonderful UMA calling, which routes calls over wifi networks, to use where T-Mobile lacks service.Blackberry 6 is a great update. The various apps are nicely integrated with the device and with each other, you do not need to pop into the photos to find a picture, back out, then in to another app to post the picture, you can just roll through the menu to do it right from the posting app. Much more convenient. The universal search is very useful. The browser is still a bit slow and not as smoothly intuitive as the iPhone's Safari browser, but it is way better than older blackberry browsers.I am very very happy with this phone!UPDATE, July 2012:I still love this phone! Still works superbly, and has held up really well; still looks brand new! I love the messaging capabilities of this phone, and it works really well as a phone too. Comfortable in the hand, gets good clear calls, easy to find and call contacts. I'm sad to read of BlackBerry woes, they make great phones!

After reading some of the reviews for this particular item i was a little hesitant on purchasing it. For example one person said that it was difficult to plug in the charger. Another said that it was hard to take the phone out of the case. A third said it was bulky.I just purchased the defender and those were the first things I checked after installing the phone. I did not experience the issues stated in the other reviews. As far as it being bulky... Well Yeah it's an otterbox. I recommend this case to anyone who wants to protect there phone.",117,0 +118,"Not perfect - but the best phone so far + +I bought this phone on sale from AT&T; after owning the iPhone 3G and 3GS.Here are my thoughts:-- Apps - I did some research at the marketplace to make certain that I could live with the available apps. You should do the same. There aren't nearly as many official apps. I discovered that all of the apps I really need are there (like Amazon and Kindle). Those lacking 'official' apps have third-party alternatives. I have since discovered that some of the Wikipedia alternatives are better than the official app on the iPhone. The third-party Dropbox and Pandora apps seem to work well, too. The only hitch I had was that while some banks have official apps, mine did not. I knew I could use the website. Once I got the phone I realized that the large screen and the excellent browser made online banking a snap. I can even pin the website to the start screen just like an app. The overall experience on the browser is actually better than the iPhone app.-- Windows Phone 7.5 - Incredible, smooth, fluid, fun, and (here comes an Apple word)... Magical. It is so cool to see your contacts from Gmail and Facebook being linked and all of that information flowing together. I keep up with my grown kids better than ever thanks to that integration. The screens are beautiful and stark. There were a few new tricks to learn since it doesn't work like the iPhone, but it is so refreshingly different from everything else out there and, in my opinion, better.-- Battery life - no difficulty going all day long and then some on a charge. Even with heavy usage I don't run out of juice. There is a low-battery mode that cuts some of the background activity when you are low. I enabled it just in case.-- Email - a cinch to set up. The large screen makes it so easy to use. Also, I can search easily in any inbox and not just phone-wide. Since this is my work email, that alone makes it worthwhile. I especially like how sideways finger flicks take you through all mail, unread, flagged, urgent, and back to all so fluidly. I find myself doing more than triage - which is what I mostly did on my old phone.-- Calendar - great with one exception - I would prefer more views. Once again, the high-contrast and beautiful typography makes reading a snap. I agreed to a party on Facebook and it showed up on my calendar in a different color than my work events. That was cool.-- Voice - Better than the old iPhones but still needs work. Reading of incoming texts when I'm in the car on Bluetooth is great. Text-to-speech in reply works well most of the time, but there are times when it just can't work out what I'm saying. I'm sure if I had an earpiece with the mic near my mouth it would be better.-- Office - Works well with SkyDrive integration. I take my notes in OneNote and replicate them to SkyDrive, so I have immediate access. Having all the Office apps is a real advantage since this is mostly a work tool for me.-- Phone - I almost forgot that this thing is a phone. Call quality is acceptable but could be better. The phone doesn't seem to drop calls like the iPhone. I don't know why, but it hasn't dropped a single one. I never went even a couple of days without a dropped call on the iPhone. Speakerphone is good and loud.-- Screen - I waited too long for this - This screen is AWESOME! I am not getting any younger and I love how much easier it is for me to read this screen. It is first thing that people notice.-- Browser - I haven't used IE regularly in years, but this thing works really well. I haven't had any real page formatting errors. It doesn't seem to work with Amazon Cloud Drive, but that doesn't matter a lot to me. One thing that I should mention relating to the OS, the screen, and the browser - the 'pinch to zoom' on this phone is so fluid and so easy that you just have to try it to believe it.-- Camera - I'm no camera nerd, but it seems great to me.-- Marketplace - no issues. Buying and downloading is easy. All of my favorite podcasts were available. Your mileage may vary.-- Zune software - This is a big win for me. iTunes on Windows is a terrible program.Things that need improvement:*Top button a little hard to get at*Miss the single 'silent' button (although the one on the 3GS didn't function anyway, which is common)*Call quality could be better (but at least I don't drop calls)*Would love expandable storage (but I didn't get it on the iPhone either)Final verdict:Like I said - not perfect, but the best phone so far. You'll love it if you get one, but you have to enjoy being one of the few. There aren't a lot of other Windows Phone users out there...

But at least it did not fall apart when being placed into the ear.I got the newest Blue Ant and it cracked along a smooth line within the first two weeks, when I was merely placing it into my ear. I had the receipt, the warranty, and the device which clearly evidences a manufacturing defect. I figured, having spent about 500.00 in the past year on Bluetooth alond I would get good treatment. However, the manufacturer denied the warranty request. Then the seller Blue Harbor Online, denied the request, apparently they are glad to take the money then disclaim any responsibility for the goods they sell. So I turned to Amazon - its SO CALLED ""A to Z Guarantee."" And they declined to help. How amazing. I thought A to Z indicated ""comprehensive."" My claim that a product should last more than 2 weeks in normal use is evidently the letter ""Theta"" or ""Upsilon"" or something outside the A to Z realm.What have I learned?

Since I am past the warranty period (one year), I am unsure how Motorola will treat me. If I have a choice then I will move to a new phone as I am unwilling to risk Motorola not resolving the issue.

The only confusing part about it (till I read the description here on Amazon) is that it has two strangely marked USB ports - UNI and APP. If you are as confused as I am, it is intended to be Universal (UNI) for non Apple products, and APP is intended to support Apple products. I guess it makes sense (in a way). I am much more used to the ports being labeled 1.0 and 2.1 based on the Amps provided to the specific ports. My iPhone (Apple) uses 1.0 and my iPad (also Apple) uses 2.1.Whichever case, they both charge correctly, so I assume it is 2.1 amps for the Apple.I'm giving this four stars, not because it isn't a nice product (it is) but because the instructions for which one to use were unclear.The product information states that the total output voltage is 5V and the total output Amps is 2.4. Because of this, and because of the way it differentiates Apple and Universal, I would hesitate to try to charge BOTH my iPhone and iPad at the same time and count on fast charging.I am grateful to have received a complimentary sample for my review.",124,0 +125,"good product, does what it says it will do + +I switched from a verizon cell phone to the iphone 4 and at&t.; Coverage in my area, Sedona, AZ is not that good with at&t.; In my house I was getting 1-2 bars and a few dropped calls with my new phone. When I went up on the roof, I discovered that I could get 5 bars on my phone. So I bought the Wilson unit and installed it as per their clear instructions, putting the antenna on the roof and the amplifier in my living room. It raised my bars in the house to 4-5 bars. Calls are clear and strong now. Very happy.Important point: what you need to understand is that this unit will only amplify an existing cell signal. It cannot amplify a non-existent signal. In other words, you have to find a place in your house, probably on the roof, where you get good strong cell reception. Then the unit will bring that strong signal into your house. The unit cannot create a signal where none exists.",125,0 +126,"Love my Note 3 Slate Slim Armor Case from Spigen + +I love this Slim Armor Case for Spigen. At first I was thinking of getting the Neo-Hybrid case from Spigen, but I was happy that I chose the Slim Armor. The case is rugged and sturdy enough. I dropped the phone out of my pocket once and there was no damage to the phone whatsoever. I also put a glass screen protector on my Note 3 and appreciate the lip that extend beyond the glass screen thickness. When I put my phone face down the lip protected my glass screen from touching/scratching table surface. Over all I am very happy with this case.I would recommend the Slim Armor Case to any one seeking a case for his/her Note 3. Much better than the Slim Armor Case for the Iphone 5 (not enough-if there is any at all-lip protection for the glass screen).",126,0 +127,"Four Pairs Later, I have a Love/Hate Relationship With These Things (but far more love than hate) + +I have small ears. People tell me they are adorable and they are I guess, but their size makes finding in-hear headphones almost impossible. It's like in-ear headphones were all made for elephants or something. Anyway, when I found Yurbuds, my quest for finding the perfect in-ear headphone that fits seemed to end. These things fit great. The women-specific model is perfect for my cute, tiny little ears. They stay in while running, while working out, while on the phone. I really like that they sound good while not blocking out all sound (I like being able to hear what is going on around me, as I often use these while running or on public transportation).The issue I have with Yurbuds is durability. I go through about 2-3 pairs a year. Seriously. Now, I will admit that I am a HEAVY user. I use my earbuds while working out, while riding public transportation, while taking on the phone, while working. These things are used A LOT. So I am willing to accept that a pair of any earbuds probably won't last me longer than a year. But I seem to have the same issue each time - one of the earbuds (usually the left) just stops working. In all fairness, the company has replaced two pairs so far. I didn't have the heart to send the last pair back because I figured it HAD to be something I was doing.But I'm stuck because these are the only damn earbuds that STAY IN MY FREAKISHLY SMALL EARS. And they really do fit great. They are comfortable and I can wear them with glasses. So that's how I arrive at four stars. And I do recommend them to others. I just wish I could get a single pair to last at least a year.",127,0 +128,"Basic.

You won't regret it so long as you know it isn't an iPod Nano.",128,0 +129,"Really surprised by the negative reviews. + +This is a *really* sturdy case for the price. I am a total klutz and, while I wouldn't go throwing it on the ground on purpose, I definitely feel pretty confident that this case will save my phone from... well... me. The main reason I'm not giving this 5 stars is because the screen protector had multiple scratches upon receiving it. You can spend $25 on a flimsy rubbery thing and extra cash on screen protection film but this is a definitely way better bang for your buck.The Armorbox case is built specifically for the Nexus 5 and the fit on mine is perfect all around. All of the holes for all of the things match up perfectly. The power & volume buttons push down without any additional effort. Someone mentioned cutting off the flaps for the microUSB and headphone jacks but I plan to keep them to help keep it a little cleaner.The bumpers on each corner are technically separate pieces from the rest of the case but they're not flimsy or easy to just pop out. Not sure what kind of stress people are putting on this case to make that happen but I'm notoriously (though unintentionally) hard on my stuff.The Armorbox case will add bulk to the phone. It still fits in my jean pockets with no problem but I'm less likely to forget it's there now.Final Thoughts - This is a case for the accident prone (or someone who likes their phone to look like a piece of military equipment). If you've never dropped a phone in your life, get yourself a stick on screen protector and call it a day. If you're the kind of person who walks around with a cracked screen on your phone 8 months out of the year or who seems to have a constant case of the butterfingers, consider this a solid investment.Quick Tip - Make sure your actual phone screen is really clean and give the protector screen a good wipe down before assembling. You might get some dust and/or hairs in there over time but I can't imagine having to clean this thing out with any kind of frequency if you go into it with a super clean screen.Edit (1/9/14) - I am probably going to cut off the bottom flap for the charger port. The one for the headphone jack stays in place really well but the one on the bottom doesn't stick in place and catches on stuff.",129,0 +130,"4 stars.. + +I love the case, but when taking a picture, I have to take the phone out of the case when using the flash because it washes out the picture and you can't see anything",130,0 +131,"Small but works great + +MUCH smaller than the DROID X but has all the same features. Takes some getting used to with the touch screen, especially after having a slide out keypad of last (non-android) phone. Internet is pretty quick and it picks up wifi signals easily. Highly recommend searching forums as there are many background apps that run the battery down quickly that you wouldn't normally think about. Once you shut off things that you aren't using (like wifi and bluetooth), the battery lasts a day with normal use. Fun free apps available from the ""market"" that are timely and easy to use - depending on what you are looking for. This little phone packs a lot of things in its little size. Once your eyes adjust to using a screen that size (3.2""), and your fingers adjust to the keypad, it's easy to navigate. I'm not sure if I like the suggestive typing feature but it does make lengthly conversations quicker. Will definitely upgrade to the next size for my next phone, although this is a great starter smartphone.",131,0 +132,"Good sports armband for small to medium sized arms + +I've been using this armband for running with my iPhone 5 for several weeks and so far I've been for the most part impressed by it. I have small arms, 9 1/4" at the big point, so finding an armband that will stay on is a challenge.The armband strap has velcro along nearly it's entire length and ends with what I call a security knob. The security knob prevents the strap from slipping completely through the strap loop.I have worn this armband on my long sleeves and on my bare skin, and I have found it stay in place better when it is on the skin. The sweat sticks to the neoprene band and prevents it from moving. When I wear it on my sleeve, there is some movement no matter how tight I pull the band.You can't use this armband with a case of any kind on your iPhone because of the snug fit. The snug fit on a naked iPhone leaves no worry of your iPhone falling out or wiggling loose while running. The earphone plug lines up nicely as well as the front panel. The touch use on the front panel was no problem for me and I was able to easily navigate my running app and music while running.During the time I have used this armband, it has rained several times during my runs and my iPhone stayed protected. The top flap does come down far enough to cover the top part of the phone to keep it protected from moisture which has been a problem on some of Belkin's past iPhone sport armbands.This sports armband would be a good fit for those with small to medium sized arms since the widest size this armband to expand to is 12 inches without going past the security knob and it's smallest size is 8 inches.",132,0 +133,"Peeling Off at the Corner After Only 19 Hours of Gentle Use + +I LUVVEDITT when I didn't have to use a messy application liquid to install the screen protector.

However, the screen protector is already peeling off at the corner after only 19 hours of use (six of which was spent on my night stand while I slept). I work in an office environment in southern California. The screen protector experienced no harsh environmental factors. It simply and quickly failed.

They quickly and without hassle offered to send me a brand new screen protector without having the defective protector returned to them. I have to admit, that is good customer service. Verdict: LUVVITT.The customer service associate stated that the peeling could be the result of improper installation. That is fair enough. However, the protector comes with no detailed instructions, just numbers stuck to the protector that show the order of installation.

What I like about this item is that it is much smaller in size than others I have used with two usb outs so it doesn't take up much room in your glovebox and will not take up a lot of space around your cigarette lighter plug. I also appreciate the low cost. My experience with DC adapters is that they tend to die after a year or so anyhow. Although I would rather pay more and have one that lasts since I can't seem to find one I would rather get an inexpensive unit knowing that I will probably have to replace it on a daily basis.Update: this unit would only recharge my cellphone ( a Nexus GSM ) using the 2 amp outlet and would only charge my Samsung Tab 7 Plus, Asus Transformer or iPad 3 in trickle mode when they were turned off, making it absolutely worthless. The brand I had purchased from Amazon before could charge my phone and the Tab at the same time while they were on, but it burned out after two months.

It is very small and portable. It has 4 LED lights to show how much battery is left. It comes with a USB cable to charge it. However, there is no USB wall plug in to charge it though. The charging time on the external battery itself, is around 2-4 hours. If you want a reliable spare external battery but have two different type of devices, I highly recommend this product.",148,0 +149,"You Get What You Pay For!! + +I can hear better from the speaker on my phone. This is a piece of crap!! I don't recommend anyone to buy this junk....Need I say more?",149,1 +150,"Best bang for the buck + +I have enjoyed the last few weeks with my LG Optimus 9 very much (once T-MO resolved issues on their side, but that's not the phone's fault). It seems very responsive, I have never noticed any lag at all. 4G speeds seem decent enough and it flies on wifi. The screen is a thing a beauty. Battery life is about a day which is what I expected from these types of smart phones.My wife got a Galaxy S4, and while I can tell it is faster and has more bells and whistles.... is it $500 better? NOPE.Some things I have noticed that do not detract from my experience, just things I wonder about...Once the phone turned itself off for no reason, and I had to remove and reseat the battery to get it to come back up. No idea why, had 50% or so of battery left. Strange.The touch screen doesn't like sweaty hands, I doubt this is a problem exclusive to the L9, just touchscreens in general. I was outside all day in the Texas summer heat the other day and someone called me.... I couldn't get it to register my finger swipe to answer the call, my finger was too sweaty. I had to find a dry spot on me to wipe it off (my sock was the only thing I was wearing that wasn't soaked to the bone) then call the person back. Maybe there is another way to answer a call I don't know about.The screen is really hard to see in direct sunlight, but then again so is my wife's GS4, our previous phones (optimus M and Galaxy S) and just about every cell phone I have owned in the last 10 years that uses an LCD screen. This is more of a gripe of LCD touchscreens in general, maybe someday they will come up with one you can see outside.The speakerphone at max volume sounds very echo-y if you are holding the phone. If you put it down on a flat surface it sounds better. Knocking down the volume a notch or 2 takes care of it.All in all I am very happy with it, and it was $500 cheaper than my wife's GS4. Winning!",150,0 +151,"Battery works well, case shipped broken + +The battery and case arrived and looks very nice. It fits well and looks very natural on the phone. The case had 2 cracks in it when I opened the package. At this price, I understand why the seller does not ship in better packaging.

I've been using the phone a lot more than normal and after 28 hours (factor in sleep time) I'm sitting at 58%. The directions are well written and clear. Charge for at least 12 hours, then let it go all the way to 0% 4 times before resuming 'normal' charging.-Update-I've had this battery for about a week now and it consistently lasts for about 40 hours with heavy use.

Sense is more lightweight but more targeted, meaning it does not crete any lag (maybe the quad processor helps with that) and at the same time it is there wherever you need it to have a meaningful shortcut in the android, so you don't need to go through 3-4 screen taps more.However, I spent this week with HTC troubleshooting and now they confirmed I need to contact their technicians to fix the problem, which obviously I am not going to do. I will just return the phone and try my luck from another batch, I am sure that not all One X's have this problem. I will leave the 2 stars (although the phone is worth 4-5 stars) so people are aware that they might get a faulty GPS.--I received this phone only today.It is great! My previous phone was a Samsung Galaxy S II and I really liked it, but I wanted something newer and better, so I went for the HTC One X.The One X is fast, has a beautiful screen, HTC sense has improved a lot (I used to have HTCs in the past, and Sense was bloating the device - now it gives a much better integration with ICS but is much more lightweight) and it is nice to have 25GB in drop box with it.However, there is a problem that is HUGE for me, and hence the two stars: The GPS is buggy! As long as I keep moving in the car my location seems pretty fixed, when I stop in a red light, it goes mad, I jump all over the place, Google Maps (and HTC Locations) show me one second here, and next second two blocks down the road. The software keep re-calculating and honestly it is really unusable! I used several tools such as ""GPS Status"" and ""GPS Essentials"" and all show the same problem.Here are some links about other people reporting the same issue:[...][...][...]Please note that XDA developers suggest a fix, however this did not work for me, and also it did not work for other people in other forums.I really hope this is a software issue and soon there will be an update.

Windows Phone is the operating system of my choice primarily due to its productivity. Venue Pro is very much businesslike, precisely the type of mobile phone I want. However, the terrible power management makes it virtually unbearable to me.Let me give my Ratings below first (on a scale of 10, with numbers in the parenthesis for iPhone 4 as a reference):Thermal performance: 2 (8)Battery life: 2 (7)Build quality: 9 (9.5)Screen quality: 9.5 (9.5) *Processor: meaningless comparison (but see ""speed and efficiency"")OS reliability: 9.9 (9.5)OS fluency: 9.5 (9.0)OS feature depth: 6 (9)OS flexibility/customization: 5 (8)OS app ecosystem: 5 (9.5)Productivity: 9 (5)Form factor and appearance: completely subjectiveEntertainment: 9 (9)Speed and efficiency: 9 (7)* yes the retina screen of iPhone 4 has higher resolution, but the screen of Venue Pro looks slightly better under sunlight. In practice it's a wash.As you can see above, Venue Pro even manages to beat iPhone 4 in the few very important areas, but at the end of the day, it's just such a miserable device. The Venue Pro is otherwise a very capable phone, but the power management which includes thermal performance and battery life is so terrible, it really deserves a failing grade. A pity, because this phone with Windows 7.5 would have been a quite attractive device.THE POWER MANAGEMENT DESERVING OF FLUNKING GRADEFirst, it runs very warm in your hands. Quite uncomfortable after just a few minutes of running a few apps, some email-checking or web browsing. This is not only uncomfortable, but could actually be even a health concern. I know what heat and radiation of a mobile device can do to human body. My hands got a slowly burnt condition as a result of longtime use of Windows tablet computers. With Venue Pro, the thermal problem is so seriously bad that the issue alone makes it an extremely undesirable phone.Second, the battery life is miserable, not really surprising given the bad heat problem. This phone will not last a day, unless you don't use it at all. It can support only about 2 hours of continuous use, many times whorse than my laptop. It has just a bit over 24 hours of standby time even if you don't use it at all (again, many times worse than my laptop). Any modestly use (for example, very modest amount of browsing and e-mailing plus a few short calls) will exhaust the battery of this phone before the end of the day. I am not a heavy mobile user, and still I usually end up having to charge it at least once a day. When I'm out on a trip, twice or more a day, making it among the biggest mental burdens while you're traveling. Simply not worth it. This is absolutely the worst battery performance among the many phones I have used or and handled. To me, this is simply unacceptable. It may be too much to ask for a phone that last for a week, especially with the smart phones becoming almost full-featured computers. But failing to last even a single day is too much of a shortcoming.MIXED BAG WITH THE WP 7.5 OSI love and hate Windows phone OS. The user interface is very intuitive. Glitch free and just so smooth (which is every bit as good as iOS, but much better than Android). The best of all, however, is that Windows Phone OS is the most productive smart phone OS among the major platforms. If you are a content consumer, all three mobile platforms are shoulder to shoulder. But if you are a content creator, Windows Phone is far ahead. The iPhone and Android cannot match the power of Microsoft's Office 365 which integrates with Microsoft Phone perfectly. If you or your company subscribe to Office 365 and use the cloud versions of the Outlook, TeamSite and SharePoint, the Microsoft phone can do almost anything you can do using a laptop, although with certain limitations on the small user interface. Even if you don't use Office 365, getting the free Windows Live and Skydive (which is very much underrated) would already be an excellent productive user experience.Another potentially killer app on WP is the just released Skype (still beta, but very usable). If you use Skype Pro or Skype Out, you can actually make phone calls anywhere in the world as long as you have Wi-Fi connection. No cellular connection is required. I was on an international trip the other day, and it came extremely handy. I was able to make calls back to home and work at the airports even though I did not have a SIM card for the local service. Even after I got a temporary local Sim card, I continued to use Skype on my Windows phone to make calls using the 3G data service on the card, because it costs only two cents a minute, less than 1/20 of the cost for international calls made on that type of SIM card. This is potentially a huge differentiator for Windows phones. I hope Microsoft can make the point clear for users. Because they own Skype, they could make it exclusive. If doing that helps to make Windows Phone a success, I am all for it, because I'd hate to see Windows Phone fail. I need something different from iPhone or Android for my lifestyle.But the WP7.5 OS is not fully cooked yet even with the latest Mango update. The depth of customization is just not there.Just to name a few:(1) You can't turn off that stupid screen auto-rotation. You simply can't so far. No user settings has that. No app that does that. Even unlocked phone can't do that. Forgive me to call auto-rotation feature stupid. But it is one of those tech-things that made no sense on a mobile phone, precisely because a mobile phone is just so, mobile. The problem is that these device designers fail to understand that the proper (or desired) orientation of the screen simply cannot be determined by an orientation sensor. It is not a mechanical problem. It is a human problem. Even if they were so sure that they could decide what the user desires based on a sensor reading, they still fail to understand that it is the relative positions of both the phone and the user's body posture that are more relevant, not the position of the phone itself. A mobile phone can be in many different positions in relation to the user's body position, and a single sensor is not capable to determine such relative positions. The current sensor can only detect the phone's orientation itself, not its relative position to the user's body posture. In practice, the autorotation causes much more annoyance than any utility. It is OK if they just want to use it as a gimmick to attract shallow feature counters, but it is not OK to have it permanently implemented and cannot be turned off. It's simply stupid.Actually, the reason why I make this auto-rotation issue such a big deal is just to make a point, NOT because the thing itself is so life-threatening. I can live with the annoyance. But the failure or overlook of such issues is very telling of the level of ergonomics the maker of this phone understands or is willing to make an effort to.(2) You can't edit the individual fields of in a contact profile. And the given choices such as ""mobile"", ""home"", ""home 2"" are simply too rigid to satisfy even quite ordinary needs.(3) Copy and paste is still an issue. Although works quite well within the same application, it does not work very reliably across applications. It works across some applications but not others.Those are just several among many small details. Microsoft has done the hard part of building a very promising mobile OS, why is it so difficult for them to do these very basic and simple things right? It is obviously not an engineering issue. It is a product management issue. It is a company culture issue. Microsoft's level of paying attention to details can't match that of iOS; while its level of geekness can't match of that of Android. So at the end it loses on both sides. Perhaps WP really is meant for low-level entry users. But with Dell Venue Pro, we are talking about a business mobile phone here.MIXED BAG WITH THE HARDWAREThe hardware of Dell Venue Pro is a mixed bag as well. In addition to the power management issue which is downright terrible, this phone is a little bit too bulky, particularly too thick. The thickness is partly a result of including a hard button keyboard, which I thought would be almost a necessity for someone like me, but turned out to be almost superfluous, ironically because the soft keyboard is extremely good and even has some significant advantages over the hard keyboard due to its programed flexibility and extensions. (I personally think the soft keyboard of Venue Pro is even better than that of iPhone 4, which itself is excellent.)There are other details which Dell failed to pay attention to. For example, the hard keyboard keys are illuminated, which is good. But the illumination does not turn on at the desired time. It does sometimes, but usually off when you actually needed. Have no idea what they were thinking. Clearly, neither Microsoft nor Dell is Apple when it comes to paying attention to user experience details.Otherwise, the hardware is fine. The screen is beautiful. The iPhone 4's retina screen may sound better in the specification, but in practice you really don't see any difference. Both are extremely good, and the Dell screen is actually better under the sunlight. The build quality is very high. Although it uses a chipset and processor from three years ago, the phone is not slow in any measure. There simply isn't a problem in this aspect of all. I haven't compared it with iPhone 4S, but the Venue Pro is actually faster than iPhone 4, even though the latter uses a more powerful processor. This is a testament to the efficiency of Microsoft Phone OS.In summary, I don't recommend this phone. If one is interested in mobile productivity, Microsoft phone is the platform to go, but this is not it. One should wait until Microsoft phone 8.0 (Apollo) is put on a top of line Nokia Lumia.",158,0 +159,"Bearded + +Looks great in my car I ran around the block 4 times telling with excitement when I got this car dock station and my mom thought I was crazy!!

After 4+ years of use, it finally gave up, so she needed an upgrade and wanted another touchscreen phone. We had no need for a data plan, so we looked at Verizon's basic phone lineup. Unfortunately, the Cosmos Touch was the only touchscreen basic phone Verizon offered - and it is horrible.First, the good. The phone is small enough not to be a bother in a pocket. The screen, while small, works well enough. Some complain about inaccuracy of the touchscreen, but after calibrating it, we've had no problems with that. The slide-out keyboard slides smoothly and feels more solid than some other cheap phone keyboards I've used. Call quality and reliability seems typical, as does battery life. Not spectacular, but not poor.Now the bad. I'll get straight to the point. Pop-up ads. Yes, on a basic phone. At random times. And you can do NOTHING about it. Sleeping at 3 a.m.? You must be interested in VZ Navigator more than your nightly rest. Typing a text message? Some Media Center apps must be for you... you didn't *really* need to finish that text anyway. Apparently this is due to an application called ""Daily Scoop."" This application pops up VOICE advertisements for various paid service features at random times, and there is nothing you can do about it. We have even applied a data block to the phone, and it still pops up these ads. You can imagine how happy we are to be awakened in the middle of the night to learn more about paid phone data services. You cannot uninstall, remove, or block Daily Scoop.Research online shows that this is a common problem for seemingly every owner of this phone. It is absolutely unacceptable, and what I would consider even fraudulent. That flaw alone makes this phone absolutely not worth owning, although it's not the only problem. Lack of a video camera - a widely standard feature in all phones these days - is also a negative.While the ridiculous lack of basic phone options is a problem with Verizon, this phone is absolutely not worth getting - period.

Go ahead and just buy this product!Edit: The buttons fit just fine. A piece of plastic was keeping my buttons from lining up 100%. Also, I noticed that the magnetic flap works both ways so that the flap doesn't get in the way when the case is opened. On another note, I dropped my phone and the case protected it.

I took delivery on Friday 6th April (thanks to AT&T's slightly early shipping), and very hesitantly powered off my iPhone for the last time to make the switch. I am 4 days into using the phone and absolutely love it. I know there will be people wondering about the switch from an iPhone 4 - the stand-out aspects are speed (both performance and connectivity with 4G LTE), the camera (it's as good as a quality compact), the interface (I love the live tiles in WP7), integrated Outlook and Office (OneNote being particularly handy) and the look and feel (Nokia *know* hardware). Another surprising aspect were the number and availability of applications - I found many of my old favorites were already available, and *definitely* looked and feel better through the WP7 interface. This was always the reason I held back from moving to another platform, but hasn't been an issue at all. Having had experience with a number of other devices, I just don't know why anyone would consider an alternative - particularly with incredibly low handset cost (on contract of course). This phone definitely looks like a game-changer, and Nokia stepping up to the plate with a home run. Fantastic!",189,0 +190,"This headset will have mixed reviews. Treo beware. + +During the few days I tried this before returning it, I experienced very mixed results. I have compared it along side the Jawbone, nX6000, and my trusty old Plantronics Voyager 510.First, if you have a Treo 700W you will absolutely not want this headset. The sound varied from crackly static to heavily robotic. I will give the blame to Treo on this, but none of the other headsets I've tried gave poor sound quality on the Treo so something is different about this one.I tried it on a new Chocolate and was able to use the open-to-power-on-and-answer call feature well enough as long as you grab your headset and open it very soon after the phone begins to ring. This did not work at all on the Treo, which insists on a proper pairing before a call begins or else you have to hang up and call back starting with the headset. Again a Treo problem but still making this headset worthless because it is powered off unless you keep it open and on your ear.No phone I tried it with yielded acceptable noise canceling. If anything it picked up far more background noise than any other headset I've tried, and absolutely did not warrant itself as an upgrade or superior choice over the far cheaper Voyager 510. The Voyager 510 is just as comfortable, sounds far better on both ends of the conversation, and picks up much less background noise than the VMX100.If you are looking for noise canceling: the Jawbone is excellent but (the Original Jawbone is) too heavy for my preference or for all-day wearing. The nX6000 is also very good but only if you tend to talk louder than I usually do or cup your hand in front of your mouth to talk more quietly yet direct the sound backwards to the headset, and the nX6000's ear-speaker is just too tinny sounding -- I would have to choose between a volume loud enough to hurt sometimes or else ask others to repeat themselves enough to be frustrating.In conclusion, I am still of the opinion that the Plantronics Voyager 510 is the standard to beat -- good sound quality on both ends, adequate filtering of low to moderate background noise, and low cost. The VMX100 I got may have something defective in its Noise Canceling portion, but since I've only seen 2 reviews anywhere so far and they were both top marks, I have to assume someone is either misrepresenting them to spark sales or else no one is comparing against real Noise Reduction technology to see how bad this is. If this were my only headset I'd be disappointed with the sound quality on both ends, and the price, and the seemingly unimpressive noise canceling, so I don't see how this headset is getting good ratings.",190,0 +191,"Love the cable, love the extra length + +I was tired of my charging cables not quite reaching my desk / computer while I recharged my phone and continuted to use the phone.

If they launch a new improved version I will no hesitate to buy it and probably give 5 stars.Here are the drawbacks:1. The synthetic leather smells terrible. Using another type of ""leatherette"", microfiber, or even nylon would be better... but real leather will put it on the top of the wallet-cases category.2. The camera/flash hole is too narrow.

For years I stuck to their products but I could not gaze away from the LG G2. I love Android and am a stock purist, but even so I still went and picked up this beauty. The specs speak for themselves through buttery smooth swiping of widget-heavy home screens, stutter-free scrolling on websites, and lightning quick response on the camera app. It handles .mkv HD videos with ease and the brilliant screen is almost surreal -- a pure joy to look at.None of that matters when you can't walk too far away from your charger; most standard phone batteries simply won't afford you the time. Rejoice! For that is not the case here. This phone packs a 3000mAh battery that lasts and lasts. A full day of watching bright screen videos, listening to music, playing silly games, and browsing all the cat blogs you could want.If there's anything to post in the negative column then it would be the lack of packed-in headphones and the lack of a removable battery; although the latter feels like a moot point because it provides a day or two of use on a single charge.",194,0 +195,"Works with my Canon EOS Rebel T2i + +It is hard to understand how Canon can ask $60 for their cable when this one is available for under $4! Both video and impages worked flawlessly when connecting my Canon EOS Rebel T2i to my 50 inch Panasonic HDTV.",195,0 +196,"Good for the price if you know what to expect. + +The W376 is an excellent low cost phone for those who do not literally LIVE on cell phones (yes, those people still exist), but who want a reliable device that does the very basic thing a cell phone should do - make calls.Let's not compare this phone to major carrier contract phones - you can't. This phone and most all others from Tracfone, Net10, Straight Talk (etc) are built to a price and sold for cheap prices. In this case, $20.00. You can't compare their build quality and features to phones that cost $150 to $300 from the carriers. But they are surprisingly good for the cheap prices they're sold for. I will refrain from the controversy of radiation these things may shoot off though. There's a lot of debate as to how dangerous excessive use can be with these, and let's face it, the W376 and those like it are all cheap plastic - most likely cranking out enough stuff to boil an egg given enough time. If you like to use cells for hours on end - get something with better shielding ""just in case"". That being said, for what I use this for (very light use), I don't consider it a concern.Call quality and the ear speaker are very good. I live 25 miles outside of Atlanta not near an Interstate Highway, and I get 3-5 bars at all points within my house. Sound is clear. Battery life is good. There is a lag between pushing the keys and hearing the confirmation ""beep"" and seeing the digits/texts appearing on the screen though, so this takes some getting used to (again, cheap phone). The camera - let's be honest, it stinks. A very low 640 x 480 pixel resolution is the max size, and even at ""fine"" quality the photos are horrible, resembling a watercolor painting more than a photograph (think of cell phones of 8 years ago for reference). So if the camera is important - look elsewhere.Keywords here - ""for the price"", the W376 is an excellent phone. If I were comparing it to a smart phone or touch screen phone from the carriers I'd give it 2 stars, but we're again talking about a cheap phone with cheap call prices, so for this price, it's highly rated by me. Get the double minutes for life, use the coupon codes included in the package, and for lighter users, this could be a perfect solution to give yourself cell service while at the same time giving the financial finger to the big greedy carriers who charge way too much in fees.Now, with all of this being said, I HAVE to add, that the Tracfone/Net10 customer service is among the WORST I've ever experienced. You will on 100% of your calls be dealing with reps in India. Reps who speak little English, and those who do, do so poorly and with heavy accents. Many are under-trained and reading from scripts, and will give you inconstant information. If you are switching or ""porting"" a phone number from an old phone of theirs or another phone via a different service, expect a long call with a series of codes and number to be given to the rep, then what can amount to an extremely long wait for it to be transferred, if, it works at all (prompting another call to try to get it fixed, etc etc etc). If there is one thing that is almost worth the high price of contract carriers (AT&T;, Verizon, T-Mobile), it's that the customer service for them as much as we complain, is actually WORLDS better than from Tracfone/Net10. So to sum up, these phones are great for certain uses as very basic and sometimes very reliable phones. But if customer service is as important to you as the phone service price, avoid this service.",196,0 +197,"Beware of (AT&T) After iPhone + +When you see any carrier service after an Iphone beware as this means the iphone is not unlocked / unblocked.

The first one was for the original iPhone. I can't tell you how pleased I was with the original version. Now that I have received the new version for the iPhone 3G, it seems that the standards have been kept by iSkin.First, the cons:- Thick and rubbery. While at first, the rubber is tolerable when pulling the phone out of a pocket or bag, after a while, the coating on the rubber wears off and it can be a pain to pull the phone out when you need to use it.- On the original revo, the headphone cap started to break down over time and rip itself away from the body of the case. This newer version seems to have a sturdier headphone jack cover but only time will tell.- The hard removable screen cover can be lost easily. As the iPhone 3G is contoured on the back but not on the front, the hard faceplate when secured to the back can fall off very easily as it fits unnaturally on the back. Take caution when placing it on the back as after only 5 minutes I noticed how easy it is to bump off.The pros on the other hand are far more numerous than the cons:- Sturdy build but not too large. The rubber casing is so protective that multiple drops to asphalt and concrete from chest height does nothing to the phone or even the exterior of the case.- The new version has rubber surrounding the ear speaker, but is still able to allow the proximity sensor to function normally. This helps as in the old version, the area around the ear speaker was open and would sometimes accumulate dirt, grease and grime from constant phone use.- The headphone jack cover now not only covers the jack but has a little rubber plug molded into it that seats itself into the jack proving a more secure seal.- The screen lock and volume buttons are still just as protected. They are protected so well that at times it is a bit difficult to depress the buttons. Something that takes a little time getting used to.- No more camera lens cover. The old version had this stupid camera lens cover that would scratch easily and would acquire dirt and grime very quickly. It was able to be removed but the notches that it sat in would still acquire crap. No longer does this exist as there is jut a nice, smooth hole for the camera lens to shoot through (not like it matters as the iPhone's camera sucks).- The dock connector is now better protected as the cover for it is no longer removable. The dock connector cover is a flap very similar to the headphone jack's and it has the same little molded inset so it sits better in the dock connector, protecting it from dirt as well as trauma.- Last but not least is the non-adhesive screen cover. Those who purchased the original revo know all about how the ""privacy"" film that was included made your phone's screen invisible from off angles but it also added a significant amount of bulk and filtering to the screen, lowering it's brightness and touch sensitivity. The new film is no longer privacy film and is about half the thickness as the original. I noticed no difference with or without it in regards to touch sensitivity but I did notice a mild dampening of the native brightness (which was nothing compared to the original film).iSkin has made some significant improvements for the better with their second version of the revo. All-in-all, this is a must have case for anyone who is a heavy user of their iPhone. It is well worth the money, and if you look here on Amazon, you can find it for $10 or more dollars below the MSRP.",210,0 +211,"Does not work with Case + +I have two different cases and was hopeful that this product would work with at least one of them after reading other reviews.

It came with a completely broken flash, it won't even turn on with the flashlight app. From what I've read the flash is pretty much useless, so Oh well I guess... It also came with a charger that would take over 12 hours to charge, but my family had an old samsung charger laying around which works great with the phone (charges in about 4-5 hours). Where the microSD card goes is frustrating, and I ended up just taping it down so it would stay in place. I have yet gotten the GPS to work, but that may be my own fault since I haven't spent a lot of time trying to stand outside with it.Besides that, I really do like the phone. The battery is pretty good considering it is a smartphone. Texting is great, amazing autocorrect. Easy to connect pictures and such onto social media sites. I don't have a data plan (it's one of the reasons I buy unlocked phones), so I've only used wifi and I haven't had any problems with that. I wouldn't say that the camera is anything special, it's comparable to the 3.2 megapixel camera I had on my old phone. I downloaded ES file explorer which allows me to use my music as ringtones and alarms. I can't figure out for the life of me if/how this phone takes screenshots though.

We had our phones charging during the drive (off the car, not the devices) and we're all at 100% when we got there. By the end of Night 2 we only had two chargers with power and both of those had 1 light left on the battery meter. We had 4 phones charged two times and the 5th once by that time for a total of 9 charges and all 3 devices were nearly dead (one was fully dead). The following day we got two phones to about 60% battery from 5% before the devices died completely. Considering that 3 got about 10 charges total before dying I don't see how one gets five. The next festival I'm going to is 4 nights/5 days so I will be bringing two of these for myself and recommending my friends do the same. The size on this was small enough I could keep it in my shorts pocket while charging and then just toss it in the small pocket on my Camelbak when done charging.Please note these devices do not turn off automatically once you hit 100% so you will drain the battery on this if you leave your phone unattended charging overnight or charging too long. We thankfully caught this before leaving on the trip or it would've been trouble.For the price I would DEFINITELY recommend but do not believe five charges of an iPhone - more likely is 3-4 charges and 4 is pushing it (may only get 50-60% charge the 4th time).",214,0 +215,"buy the ""a"" not the ""i"" + +d570i does not work with att, you'll need the d570a,Haven't bought the phone yet but just cancelled my order after finding this out.",215,1 +216,"All Gone! + +Three little pens came in and went so fast I hardly had time to recover.

Simply based on this only being a few reports against quite a good number of positive ones, I decided to buy.Also, the one thing with these buds is they collect a lot of wax, and the speaker grill can become clogged. So some of these failure reports may have come from people who didn't expect that and didn't read the cleaning instructions.About 2 months after purchasing my first pair, the left earbud became very quiet compared to the right, until it eventually stopped working. Cleaning did not help, so I took them back and a replacement was issued (which are my current ones).About 6 months on into my second set, the left bud started playing up again. (note the left bud is the one without the control). Sometimes it would work until I pushed it into my ear. Again, cleaning did not help. The bud was either off or on intermittently, but definitely related to movement. (E.G. it wouldn't just shut down while in my ear).Now the the left bud is dead and it's not even intermittent anymore.It's a shame. I like these units otherwise. The design is outstanding.

Here is why I really like this case:1) The color; I got the sea green, which I wasn't so sure about. Really it's more of a teal and I love it against my white iphone. If only the frame around the camera lense was white too.2) The crisp edges. Some have said that they aren't a fan of the edges, but keeping them sharp helps create a really nice look and minimizes the thickness (note this phone will be in my purse not my jeans pocket).3) How cool is it that I can run into the store without my heavy purse!!!

I didn't think an arm band would work with a phone this size but it was perfect. Between that and my galaxy gear - running has become quite fun.",226,0 +227,"Great Case, Great Protection. Hate, Hate, Hate the Screen Protector + +Overall this appears to be one of the best cases you can get for the Note 2.The layered protection looks like it would protect the phone in just about any instance where you drop the phone. The fit of the case is perfect and I find the buttons easy enough to operate but as others have said it does make the volume rocker a bit harder to press. The covers over the Headphone and USB ports look like they will last a long time and protect them from getting dust inside. I find no issues using the front of back cameras. The case feels good in the hand and is easy to grip. It does add quite a bit of size to the phone but the tradeoff is worth it when you consider the cost of replacing this phone.My only complaint is the screen protector which is attached to the polycarbonate shell and has a hole in it for the Home Key. After just one day I was finding that dust was getting under the screen protector. The worst though is that the screen protector actually doesn't sit down against the screen uniformly and you can feel a gap between it and the screen when touching the screen. It feels like I have the Ferrari Phone with a Ferrari Case and a Kia screen protector. I am thinking about cutting the included screen protector out of the case and just placing a regular stick on screen protector on the phone which I think will work better and keep dust from getting between the screen and the screen protector. If this case came with an edge to edge high quality stick on screen protector I would give this a 5 star rating. If I was to rate just the screen protector it would rate 1 star.If you have a Note 2 I would recommend getting some type of protection for the phone. My wife also has a Note 2 and it got dropped on a tile floor when just one week old. That single drop shattered the screen when it hit the corner from being dropped from waist high.I ended up buying this from my local cellular provider because they give me 25% off of accessory purchases which made it cheaper than buying here on Amazon. Plus it got it same day.Update: I removed the built in screen protector and installed a stick on screen protector. The screen is now brighter and remains protected while it feels much more natural than it did with the built in screen protector. The built in protector is easily removed as it just pops out and is attached with a glue that for me stayed connected to the protector and was removed totally from the frame without having to do any additional cleaning.",227,0 +228,"Simply the best. + +This is by far the best Blu-tooth I've bought, and ironicly since buying it from Amazon, the cheapest. I've tried others such as the BlueAnt Z9 which is horrible and Nokia BH800 so I've been around expensive noise canceling mini blu-tooths (or are the teeth LOL). This one has the most comfortable fit, the clearest sound on both ends. Very rarely do I hear static from my phone being in my pocket. The sleek design is another plus. There are no visible buttons to mar the design and the gold color is something different from the boring black or grey as most blu-tooths are. Both the ear clip and speaker cushion come with three sizes to custom fit your ear.Now for the cons. First are the buttons. I will tell you READ THE INSTRUCTIONS. Since the buttons themselves are inside the device, there is a kind of weird combination of presses to do anything but answer, hang up, or turn off the noise assassin feature. I have an iPhone so I can control the volume from there, that's no problem, but I have to go back and look that up as well as to recall the last person I called. It's a minor inconvienence really. Also if you are on a call and need to readjust your blu-tooth, just becareful because you can easily accidently hang up your call. Next is the pairing. It's cool that it automatically pairs, but if you are on a call, it becomes an inconvience also. Like for example you are walking to your car and the jawbone is inside, as soon as your phone is in range it pairs. If you switch back to the phone it will pair again even if you think it's turned off. I had that problem with every blu-tooth that auto pairs. And the last thing is, the LED does not light when a call is coming in. If you have your phone on silent and don't have the jawbone on, you have no way of knowing some is calling. I wonder why they didn't include that? I guess to not alert others, but it does make a sound if you have it on your ear, otherwise you can't hear it.All in all the Jawbone stands far ahead of the competition.",228,0 +229,"So tired + +Don't buy a GSM unlocked cell phone.

I'll figure it out eventually, but I won't let it ruin my day enough to take a star away for it. I followed the instructions to download the latest version of the BB operating system, and it has some nice new features, but if you're one of those who grumbles over changes, then be prepared to get accustomed to a very different interface. I do like that the new interface is more ""PC-like"". There is more functionality available straight from the home screen. The keypad is similar to the older Curves, but the function keys are a little smaller, and their location shifted a little. So far I haven't really had too much trouble thumb-typing with it. I still like this keypad better than the ""virtual"" keypad that pops up on touch-screen phones. We replaced our older Curves when my husband's trackball stopped working. This ""trackball"" is really a little touchpad - so no mechanics to gum up over time. All in all, for me, the transition was quite easy. For new users of the Curve, you will like it. For those transitioning, you'll have some adjustments to make.... and you'll have to get new charging cords... Sigh.",230,0 +231,"Do not buy + +This case is not how it is in the pictures.

It's got a good camera, and the native software do their jobs well. It's good enough for anything I can think of so far, and I'm very happy with its responsiveness. It's a great piece of hardware on the inside, however the outside visual aesthetic is boring (aside from being thin, grey, and smooth) but that doesn't matter if you buy a case. I have a serious case of man hands and this phone feels right.And Google maps is awesome on this phone. One of the biggest reasons why I chose not to go with the new iPhone is because of their sub-par Apple branded map app. I am astounded how manly leaps and bounds Google maps is beyond the Apple Map app. I am very glad I switched, and I am very happy with this piece of hardware. I got a blue tooth headset two weeks after I bought this phone, and I feel like I am in the future now.",242,0 +243,"The case LEAKED! DESTROYED my iPhone! Avoid this case! + +Pros:1) It is by far the best looking/slimmest waterproof iPhone5 case.2) Limited water contact (no moving around/no extended time periods) seems to be fine3) After a website problem when this case launched (where they didn't even respond for a month), their support has been very good4) Waterproof headphone adapter is smart and innovative (although mine was broken)Cons:1) After passing the water test, the case LEAKED in real world conditions (swimming around), destroying my iPhone2) Spacer on top makes a bubble on the top ~10% of the screen, requiring more pressure to press down3) Rainbowing/oil effect where the plastic of the case comes in contact with the iPhone screen4) Makes vibrations/noise from the back of the case if the volume is ~75% or higher5) High price tagSo I thought that it would be cool to have a waterproof case for my phone, thinking, hey, it could double as a waterproof camera, how convenient! I'm actually saving money! Boy was I wrong.Right when I got the case I did the water test, submersing the empty case in to a bucket of water for a little over an hour, the insides stayed dry. Newly confident with my case I plopped in my iPhone 5 to see how it performed in the shower.. not bad, putting it in the corner to amplify the sound worked great and most important of all.. the iPhone stayed dry. However, after a day or two I began to notice some big flaws with the case.First, like many people have mentioned, the spacer on the top of the phone by the camera/speaker makes it so the top ~10% of the iPhone screen takes more pressure to press down. It's not a lot of pressure, but it's annoying since you're used to pretty much no pressure on the rest of the screen. Second, there started to be some rainbowing/oil distortion on the center of the screen. On a closer examination it looks like it's where the plastic screen came in actual contact with the iPhone screen. It goes away if not in contact with the screen, but most of the time some of it was touching, making an ugly spot in the center of the phone. These defects were annoying, but still not a total deal killer for me since they were more cosmetic issues and up to that point the main purpose of the case (waterproof) seemed to be fine.So still confident in the case I took it with me on my trip to Hawaii, huge mistake. When I was swimming around taking pictures/videos (in my hotel's pool, not even the ocean yet!) I noticed my iPhone screen went black. I jumped out of the pool and on closer examination I was horrified to find out that there was water in the case! I tried to dry off my iPhone but after I brought in to the Apple store they confirmed my horrors, the iPhone was dead. No way to get the data through normal methods. Could only offer a refurbished replacement for $250. Nightmare complete.CONCLUSION:So ask yourself, do you really need to drop $80 on this ""waterproof"" case? Does your phone really need to be waterproof? What if something goes wrong and it leaks... destroying your phone like it did to mine? Do the benefits of having your phone waterproof outweigh the risks of testing your luck with this case? IMHO, hell no.Want to take pics/vids in water? Get a waterproof camera, they are so cheap now.Want to listen to music in the shower? You really can't find a place just outside the shower to blast music (use walls as amplifiers)?Want to use your phone at the beach? People do this all the time without a waterproof case, just be careful and put it away in your bag when you aren't using it.Also, everybody who buys this case should know this: if your phone gets wet, dry it off immediately, leave it turned off, and submerse it completely in a bowl of rice overnight (better if you remove the battery, but honestly, most won't have the right tools immediately available). If possible, immediately book an appointment with an Apple ""genius"" so they can help save your phone.",243,0 +244,"This product is fake + +I don't recommend this product to anyone.

It's completely invisible, save for the edges, and it feels great. Not as great as the bare glass, but wonderful for what it is. The fact that it doesn't cover the entire glass makes it play nice with cases. Fingerprints show a little better than on bare glass.

I took the phone out of it's case to clean it, and gave it a spray with compressed air, which got under the film at the top, and it wouldn't lay flat after that. I peeled that one off, and bungled the application of the third. I used a wet application protector next, which is thick and unsightly.

The case is a overall greatly built phone case. There are no irregularities in the specific case I received. The case fits super snug around the phone. All the usb, speaker, and stylus cut outs are perfect. The microphone holes are directly over the microphone cut outs, I'm surprised how perfect it fits around the phone and barely adds any bulkiness to a already huge phone. The buttons that cover the phone buttons feel like an extension of the phone. Most importantly I feel like if I dropped the phone I know it would be fine, which is what I really want.The only bad about the phone is that there are a lot of sharp 90 degree edges. This looks nice, and it is visually appealing, but when holding it in my hand I hate it. When I hold the phone from the bottom it feels like the cut-outs for the usb and speakers are sticking into my hand from the overall weight of the phone and when I hold the phone from the side I feels weird like I'm holding a brick or something with sharp edges. I think a better example would be, without the case I can use the phone for extended amounts of time but with it on my hands get fatigued from the case. I just think it would be better if all the edges were rounded off.Overall this is an awesome, high-end built case, maybe over time I'll get use to the sharp edges, but the design and ruggedness makes this worth every penny. 4/5 Stars and I will update this review in a couple weeks to see if I get use to the feeling and how the phone handles a few drops.",263,0 +264,"The magnet in this case may damage your costly phone. + +Strange the retailers of this case didn't read page 152 of the Samsung Galaxy S II manual.

It fits the AT&T; version of the Galaxy S II just fine. As noted in another review; there is an opening on the top-left, over the volume buttons, that does not have a matching opening on the phone itself and a small hole at the top of the phone is not open through the case. I'm not sure what the purpose of this secondary hole on the phone is, but having it covered does not seem to interfere with call quality.The buttons on the case line up flawlessly with those on the phone, though the operation of the buttons does need a firm push with the case on the phone. This is expected, by me, as the case adds a layer over the buttons.The default screen protector is bunk.First; and this is not a flaw so I didn't rate it down for it, the screen protector is made for the International version of the phone. There is a hole in the bottom designed for the hardware button these phones have. While I wish the AT&T; phone had a physical button, it doesn't. Don't plan on using this screen protector if you are ordering for an AT&T; version of the phone.Second; the screen protector is cheaply made. This is just like the ones you would expect when you pay $1 or less for one. I suggest buying a higher quality one, even if you have an International version of the phone.Third; the way the screen protector is packaged inside the case it is very easy to bend and crease during unpacking.As I didn't buy this case for a screen protector, I don't mind that it is bunk.The case itself is very nice and well built. The silicone ""glove"" fits very nicely and is not as ""sticky"" as many that I have paid less money to buy. The hard case adds a nice layer of protection outside the silicone ""glove."" I do wonder why the corners are left outside the protection of the hard case; but this is not a Defender series case. If Otterbox makes a Defender for the AT&T; version of this phone I will definitely upgrade!Overall I recommend this case, with a caveat that you should buy a screen protector from another source.Shipping was quick and the packaging was well protected.** UPDATE **I added some pictures of the case on the AT&T; Galaxy S II (SGH-I777).",266,0 +267,"Expensive or Respect + +i've narrowed my choices for my next cell phone. i would like to try a samsung this time, being that i already have an iphone 3gs. however, the expensive galaxy s3 only has 16gb of storage. my old 3gs has 32gb. i've had enough of the haughty customer service i get from apple; and now, it's time for a change. firstly, i'm looking for a company which respects my buying power. respect. secondly, i really need more than 16gb. hmmm ... i think i'll wait. either apple will send me an apology, or samsung will push out a galaxy s3 with 32gb. which ever comes first, wins. period.",267,1 +268,"Excellent + +Its an excellent small battery backup.

On my 3Gs, I had to buy a bulky two piece case to keep the front of my iPhone from being scratched and dinged. This is the first snap on case I've seen that protects the front face. It raises the face of the phone off of table and keeps the screen from scratching. It also comes with an anti-glare screen protector!! That's so awesome, it's worth $19 right there!! I had to pay $19 to buy anti-glare for my 3Gs. The case covers about 90% of all edges, only the bottom where the 30pin and the speakers are exposed. I had problems with those cheap silicone cases from Speck where dirt would creep in and end up scratching up the back of the case (when it is suppose to protect it).

It makes pushing the buttons very difficult and I often find myself locking the screen instead of bringing up the power menu when I hold the power button. Very annoying.The material is mediocre with hard plastic on the back. The plastic seems like it would scratch quite easily.Took off a star for the button feedback and another for the quality of the material. The fit is well though and it doesn't really affect swiping on the edges of the screen.",284,0 +285,"Not worth the effort + +I put this protector on my Galaxy Nexus. I carefully followed directions, saturated my fingers with the provided solution, and wet the back of the protector (not excessively). I applied the protector to the phone, slide it into place and then sqeegeed out the fluid and bubbles from the center out to the edges while quickly dabbing the excess fluid with a paper towel. I then let the phone sit for 24 hours before powering up.The good:- the protector covers the entire glass surface and thus affords maximum protection to the screen;- 99% of the bubbles and imperfections just squeegeed out, the balance disappeared after 24 hours; and- the cost of this protector is very good in comparison to the competition.The bad:- installation is more complicated than experienced with the typical dry application protector;- I had some fear that the excess solution I squeegeed out from under the protector had found its way into the phone's guts and shorted out my new expensive toy. It hadn't, thankfully, but water and electronics don't mix well so there is some risk in using a product like this;- the protector never became ""crystal"" clear like a typical dry protector. Rather, it had a wavey look to it under certain light conditions;- worst of all, when I reinstalled my gell case, the edges of the case lifted the edges of the protector and ruined the effect and utility of the product. That's not the fault of the Skinomi product, but is an issue that you need to consider when deciding on the the kind of protector that you want on your screen and the case that you use to protect the rest of the phone. The dry application protectors that I bought from Verizon don't cover the entire screen and thus don't have this problem because the edge of the gell case rests against the glass, not the protector. So, depending on the kind of case that you have, this protector may not be your best bet. The irony here is that a major advantage offered by this protector of covering the entire glass surface turned out to be its undoing; and- finally, surrendering my phone for 24 hours while the solution dried was a tough sacrifice to make.Frankly, I don't see that the good outweighs the bad. The clear protectors sold by Verizon go on in 2 minutes with no bubbles or imperfections (if applied properly), provide adequate protection, work well with gell cases that wrap around the edge of the glass, are crystal clear, and require no down time. They may cost a few bucks more, but their cost is insignificant in comparison to the value of the device. I'm not aware of any claim made by the manufacturer that these protectors offer superior protection to the dry application protectors (aside from covering the entire screen). So then, why bother?",285,0 +286,"State of the art noise cancellation though need some customization + +I have used so many bluetooth headsets and stereo headphones. I own Plantronics 925, Jabra 250, Nokia BH 200, Plantronics 610 headset and bluetooth stereo headphones: SONY DRC BT15, and Samsung BH270. None of the headsets or headphones can compare to Jawbone 2's Noise Cancellation.To achieve the best noise cancellation, the VAS (voice activity sensor) MUST contact to your cheek!!!

I sealed sandwich bag would do the same thing as this case.",289,0 +290,"A nice upgrade from the Voyager Pro + +I have been usingPlantronics Voyager Prosfor just over two years now. I like them a lot. In fact, I like them so much that I own three of them. I keep one with me, one in my attaché case and one near my computer. I don't like making calls without one. I also gave two to my girlfriend, I gave one to my brother, one to his wife and one to my best friend. I've had various Jabra, Motorola and Cardo headsets in the past but none of them compared to the Voyager Pro. The main reason is that the Voyager Pro does a fantastic job of eliminating background noise... it does it so well that when I talk to my girlfriend, we play a game where we try to guess where the other person is or what they are doing - and at most times, it is almost impossible to tell. Even though it does such a great job of eliminating background noise, it has very clear audio in both directions. You can even whisper into the mic and the other party will hear you perfectly. Additionally, the Voyager Pro is very comfortable and easy to wear. Because it fits around the ear, it is secure yet it's so light and well balanced that you can walk around with it and not even realize that you have it on. You can wear it all day without fatigue. So I don't know how they could have improved on this, but they did. Enter the Voyager Pro HD.The Voyager Pro HD (VPHD) is exactly the same size and about the same weight as the Voyager Pro (VP). Those familiar with the VP controls will be right at home with the VPHD as it is has the same exact layout. The bright, silver painted trim of the VP has been replaced with a dark, gunmetal-like trim on the VPHD. The holes in the microphone grille are much finer. The volume control rocker and the call button are now black.When you turn on a VP, you would get a pleasant, four note tone in your ear to let you know that you just turned the headset on (or off). With the VPHD, you get a familar female voice stating ""power on."" Then ""she"" tells you the amount of talk time remaining, such as ""talk time: six hours"" and then the bluetooth connection status: ""connected."" Very nice! I really like the fact that it tells you the approximate remaining talk time on startup! It also tells you the the approximate remaining talk time with a quick press of the power button at any time, during a call or not. This approximation is rounded to the nearest hour. When the battery is getting low, it will warn you by voicing ""battery low,"" but it does not tell you the remaining talk time. I've been on a call for about half an hour after it first declared the battery was low until the headset finally ran out of power and shut itself off. A full charge will give you a good six hours actual of talk time. The headset charges quickly - from a fully exhausted battery to a full charge in about 30 to 45 minutes.The audio quality of the VPHD is better than that of the VP. The results of my testing revealed that I was definitely getting more of the audio spectrum with the VPHD than the VP (and the VP already sounded great!). The volume capability seems to be about the same. At the highest level, it may be a tad louder than the VP. I find the volume is good in all but the loudest of conditions such as when standing on a train platform with a train passing by. Tip: Make sure you adjust the volume on both your phone and the headset! If the phone is set to a low volume, the headset won't be loud enough no matter what you set it to!The VPHD also has some features the VP doesn't have. For instance, when it's powered on, it detects when you're wearing it and when you're not! If you have it powered on, but aren't wearing it at the time a call comes in - say, for instance, you have it on your desk, it will automatically answer the call when you put the headset on your ear (without pressing any buttons!). If you aren't wearing it and decide not to (or, for instance, you can't find it or get to it fast enough), the call is automatically routed to the phone. If during the call you then put the headset on your ear, it will automatically transfer the call to the headset. Take it off your head, it transfers back to the phone. Neat!It also has a feature to ""lock out"" the call button if you're not wearing it to prevent accidential pocket dials. During my limited testing of that feature, the results were inconsistent. At times, it wasn't sure if I had it on my ear or not when it was in my pocket. Sometimes it locked out double clicks on the call button and sometimes it dialed. I usually don't leave it powered on when its in my pocket anyway.There are some additional features I haven't used yet - specifically the ""Vocalyst"" text and voice service. So I cannot comment on how useful that is or well that works.In summary, the Voyager Pro HD seems to have all the great features and performance of the Voyager Pro, but with some extra refinement, even better sound quality and some new convenience features. Unless I find some glaring issue with it, I would recommend the Voyager Pro HD without hesitation!",290,0 +291,"The best phone I've ever owned + +Coming from a Galaxy Nexus, I was concerned about leaving the pure Google experience for something else. Other things that I was concerned about coming over to this phone were the radios, battery life, etc.I'm deeply pleased to say that despite my potential concerns, this is the best phone I've ever owned.The battery life of this phone is consistently over 1 day, the system never stutters despite having a less-than-cutting-edge processor, the contextual processors are really cool (the pulsing feature is especially helpful and very useful) and the things like twist to camera are very nice touches. I would also think that further updates in the future will further enhance the experience.Things to be critical about -- the "ok google now" commands don't work super well if you've got a keypad lock on your phone (which is, of course, expected). The camera could stand for some serious software improvements (which are coming), but it's still a little sub-par. Yes, it does not have 4.3 (soon to be 4.4) installed, but the "big features" like low-power BT and filesystem trim are backported to this 4.2 version, so I earnestly don't think there's a ton to complain about. Of course, this is Verizon, so I'm sure there will be an update sometime around 2015.Things to be baffled about (short list) -- There's no photosphere for the camera natively. I have no earthly idea why this is not included in the default camera, particularly since its been part of the ecosphere for about a year now.In short, my primary concerns around speed and battery life have been absolute non-issues.

This is one piece of device that is the best I've ever owned apart from my iPod Touch which I had for over a year. I needed an upgrade from my previous flip-phone that I had for a couple of years. Some of the reasons why I wanted a new phone are that I needed a phone with a good camera, applications to jot down appointments/notes, text messages with a full keyboard, a good sized screen for internet use, and something similar and as fast as my iPod touch. And let to you, this phone has and does all these features just fine. Let me start off with the Pros and Cons:Pros -- Customize interface to your liking- 3.4"" screen with trackpad- Android 2.1 (latest)- EXCELLENT 5MP camera (with LED flash)- A full QWERTY keyboard- Great video- Many great applications- Fast internet 3G/wifi- 8GB memory- EXCELLENT call quality- Good speaker- GPS system- A total of 7 home/leap screens- 600MHz processor- Swype activated- Genius button (voice commands)- 3.5mm headphone jack- Bluetooth 2.1 with stereo bluetooth support- Slick, clean, beautiful design (solid build quality)- Cool weather animations **- Use as a USB Storage- And much more...Cons -- A little expense at $179.99 (through T-Mobile)- No phone case or screen protector- Battery is ok but not badI came across this phone which came out on June 2 and I had done my research even before it came out. Wasn't too crazy about at first but when I went to the T-Mobile store few weeks ago just to look at it, I loved it. First off, I was surprised at how small it was compared to looking at it on video and picture reviews online (these things usually happen anyway). I liked that fact that it was surprisingly fast, I did not experience any lags or slow downs AT ALL and still don't. Also, the display is big, bright at 3.4 inches, and colors are vivid. I wanted a phone just like my iPod Touch mainly in its speed and the screen being in a decent size and actually got something better then what I expected.There are too many features to cover but I'll do the important ones that everyone wants to know:BUILD QUALITY: The phone is made out of a hard plastic with a high gloss finish which makes it look and feel expensive; although, it does attract finger prints. There are metal/aluminum elements such as the myTouch logo, the surfaces around the camera and flash lens on the back, and the camera button on the side of the phone. The phone on a whole, including buttons feel very solid.SPEAKERPHONE: The speakerphone on this device is not the best I've heard compared to Blackberrys, being the best, but it is acceptable.CALL QUALITY: Call quality is EXCELLENT. Loud, clear, no static, you name it, it's excellent.KEYBOARD AND TOUCHPAD: Now, this is my first phone with a full keyboard but from using the Motorola CLIQ's keyboard in the T-Mobile store I preferred the myTouch 3g Slide's. The buttons/keys are nice and spaced out, and firm and very easy to press. A touchpad/trackpad is also included (located on the bottom of the screen) that can be used to navigate through the phone in addition to the touch screen. You can press on it for ""Enter/Ok"" gestures.CAMERA: I was afraid that the camera quality wasn't going to be good because the fact that I'd experienced poor quality images off the HTC HD2. But the camera on this baby blows the HTC HD2's out the water. The picture quality is another EXCELLENT. I had a regular 5MP Canon Camera that took great pictures and I can easily compare this to that. I am really impressed. CNET has this phones camera quality as subpar, when really, it's excellent. Go try it out for yourself at your nearest T-Mobile store and you'll see.BATTERY LIFE: Battery life is good but not best. From using apple products, you get used to long lasting battery life. But this phone does a good job for what it is. It is a phone with a big screen, so if you plan on using this phone with heavy usage - browsing the internet, making a lot of calls, playing games, etc., you need a charger with you on the road. However, this phone can last you all day if you're just a simple user, such as myself, just making several calls, browsing the internet and texting. It all just comes down to what and how you'll be using this phone. Another thing is that you can control the screen's brightness in three levels. I usually have mine on the lowest which reduces the battery life considerably well. The only problem is that when you're outdoors when the sun is bright, you may want to increase the screens brightness, but if you're indoors then it's fine. This would definitely be a great alternative to help you save battery life.INTERFACES: The interface on this phone basically lets you customize your own phone to your liking. You have many apps on the phone and you can place them anywhere on your screen(s), whether you want them as little icons or as a big viewable icon with animations such as the clock, whether, pictures, message inboxes, etc. and they all look very cool. Icons can even be placed in sections on one screen. In addition, you have the option to add a total of 7 Home/Leap screens and all can be viewed simultaneously. Pretty cool!INTERNET 3G/WI-FI: Browsing the internet on this phone is awesome, whether it's 3g or wi-fi, it does an excellent job. Its very sooth, smoother than my iPod Touch which is surprising and it's very fast browsing from page to page. Rotating the screen to change viewing position is at ease, no lags or cracks. I'm on the internet daily on this phone and can't get over how fast it is.APPS: In this phone you have many apps that are included such as genius, GPS, MP3 Store, Peep, PDF Viewer, Quickoffice, and much more. They have the ""Market Place"" app, where you can purchase any apps and even ""Free"" apps in any category you desire. Apps are very easy to download. If you're familiar with apple products, such as iPhone or iPod Touch, you'll know exactly how to use this.SPEED/PROCESSOR: The speed on this phone is awesome at 600MHz. It may not have the full 1GHz processor but I guarantee you that this phone will impress you. Their no lags, no slow downs, or freezes like you'll experience on other phones such as the Motorola CLIQ. This phone is fast just like my iPod Touch.NEGATIVES: You would think HTC would include either a case or a screen protector for an expensive phone like they do for their other products. So now I have to waste more money for a case and screen protector. Another thing is the price, it's $[...] after rebate and that's if you buy it through T-Mobile which is a little expensive if you ask me, but you can get a better deal else where.ANOTHER GREAT FEATURE: When you press to answer a call and as you place your ear/faces next to the phone, the screen will automatically shut off to avoid misguided touch on the touch screen interface. In addition, the phone will turn on when ear/faces is away from the phone. Pretty cool!Overall, I think this is an awesome phone, probably is T-Mobile's best; and I would definitely recommend this to anyone who's a Student, Business Professional, or anyone who wants a phone with an excellent camera.I will update this review as I experience more.",305,0 +306,"Automatic increase in bar signal!!!!! + +Don't listen to these people claiming the product doesn't work!

Very happy with the purchase.",308,0 +309,"Coolest phone i've ever owned, but not without its on set of problems. + +I have owned the following smart phones: Blackberry Storm, Samsung Continuum, Droid Incredible, and now the Droid 3 global.Out of those phones, I would say the this is the most advanced but I probably like the continuum more. Here is why..Pros:-Surprisingly good battery life.. much better than the incredible.. I can confidently say even with some heavy use it will last from 10 am till midnight couple hours of internet surfing over wifi , 30 minutes of GPS, texting on and off all day, 1 hr worth of phone calls). Light to moderate (only answering text on and off all day quick phone calls, 30 minutes of GPS) use it will be at 50% by the time I go to bed.-Super fast.. opens things as fast as I can touch them.. multi-tasks like a dream-Keyboard is fantastic, I can text all day.. voice dictation is great and fast IT HAS A NUMBER ROW! You have no idea how helpful that is-Has android 2.3.. it has some options that are good for the battery life-Nice video camera!-Nice pretty screen without being too beastly like other phones-Great build quality.. Nicely constructed of metal, scratch resistant gorilla glass.. does not feel like a plastic toy like other phonesCons:-THE CAMERAS are sooo slow compared to the continuum and incredible! Moment will be over by the time it loads-Motoblur (motorola's overlay of the phone's software) is awful, HTC (incredible) and samsung's are 10x better. Motoblur is confusing, non intuitive and has stupid animations.. photo gallery is awful.. won't even put the pictures I add to my phone in different albums! Good news is that you can download a launcher (go launcher ex), a new gallery, even a new contacts/phone dailer application from the market to hide most of the awful motoblur.-Random restarts..every once in a while, not often I will look down and hear DROOOOOID and its my phone restarting! I finally caught it before it did that and it had a little blackscreen that said something about debugging.. oddly after restarting that time radio would not connect until I pulled the battery.. rarely happens though..-Battery sensor is strange.. once my phone was be at 40%.. I turned it off and plug it in the charger and suddenly it starts charging from 5%?!-Although its not huge.. compared to other phones it is pretty heavy.. could use it as a weapon to knock someone out incase someone tried to rob me and steal it-Battery cover not that easy to remove UNLESS you use a credit card .. but pops off like a charm when u realize that..Overall... I would recommend owning this phone.. for the nice screen size, speediness and the keyboard. The other phones with keyboards for verizon are junk.. like the stratosphere, LG enlighten etc. Motoblur is awful and a I blame them for the software bugs.. that is the only things that really annoys me about this phone. Other than that, it is pretty great! I am not looking to trade it in anytime soon.",309,0 +310,"poor customer support + +product A GREAT IDEA however company web site (charge4all.net) is a big blank. it will not give you feed back on additional charge adapters. phone call just gets you answering machine. attraction to this device was the perported large assortment of adapters available. i have been unable to determine this or verify this. if i can""t information i will returning the 5 travel charging folios i purchased.",310,0 +311,"It's cute, but....... + +Can't really fit much into it. If you put cash (which I'd rather carry when I go out) in it plus an ID, it wont shut as tightly as I would like it, and since it's magnet its not a very secure shut. Now with an ID, one debit card, and a little cash in it, it wont shut. So I don't use this often unless I'm going out. But it's super cute, I like the look of it, just wish it could hold a bit more and shut securely.",311,0 +312,"If you wear a watch and hate pulling out your phone... + +I understand that some people don't ""get"" the idea of a smartwatch, so I'll explain why I wanted one. I have to stay connected and respond immediately as part of my job. I'm on work (and personal) chat and email continually throughout the day. If I'm in front of my computer, managing this is simple. But if I'm out and about I have to constantly reach for my phone to check notifications, many of which simply aren't important.Now I *could* (and have in the past) set up custom notifications so I know if the message is work or personal, chat or email, etc. But I've found this to be unwieldy and annoying. Also in many environments I simply don't hear/feel my phone notifications, or can't easily check them (driving).With the Pebble (or other smartwatch), I get my notifications on my wrist, which I can quickly and easily glance at without any reaching, clicking, unlocking, etc. I know instantly if I can ignore the message, or if I need to go to my phone, or to a computer, and take further action.Also, I regularly wear a watch and check the time frequently, so this serves that purpose as well.The Pebble is a watch first and foremost: it's waterproof to 50m (most other smartwatches are either water resistant or not even that), the display is easy to read and has many watchfaces available, and the battery lasts around a week (vs less than a day for most other current smartwatches). Most others have touchscreens but the Pebble only has buttons. No sound, but the vibration is very strong and impossible to miss (and discreet as opposed to sonic notifications). I find the fit to be comfortable and the size/protrusion are fine.Most of the one-star reviews I read on here were from Kickstarter supporters who were dissatisfied because their Pebbles were DOA or stopped working. I sympathize, and not being sure of Pebble's reliability I bought mine at Best Buy and got the extended (2-year) warranty for $20, so that solves the reliability issue.Out of the box Pebble will only handle notifications for a few of your phone's apps - default email, SMS, etc. If you're on Android you can download a number of companion apps that make it dead simple to receive all of your phone's notifications; from what I've read it's more difficult on iOS.My initial impression of the Pebble is excellent and I will update my review in the future.",312,0 +313,"Awesome, Simple Case! + +This is a typical TPU case bundled with standard screen protector. I really like the colors this manufacturer offers and also that it's unbranded. The cut outs are perfectly aligned but the volume and power buttons are not cut out, which could be a plus or minus depending on what you want. The dimple on the back is a nice touch and keeps the feel Motorola intended for this phone.There were 2 issues I experienced with my Moto X that I believe are a result of having a case on it. I don't believe it's this particular cases fault, I think any case would cause these symptoms. I did test with the case on and off and I'm fairly certain a case caused these very minor complaints.The first one is that the proximity sensor on the Moto X is very sensitive. There have been many times when I was in a call, and the screen did not turn back on when it was time to end the call. After some experimenting, I believe a case on this phone causes a shadow over the proximity sensor in some lighting conditions which causes the screen to not turn back on.The second issue is that I noticed when I use voice controls with a case on I need to speak louder. I know I'm really nitpicking with this one but it's something to consider.All in all if you're looking for a simple TPU case that comes in some great colors I can't recommend this one enough. It's difficult to find an unbranded case these days and you just can't go wrong with the price, quality and look that you get with this one.",313,0 +314,"Not for iPhones + +This may be fine for an iPod touch, but was horrible for my iPhone. There is no cutout for the speaker, it was very difficult to hear phone calls without this. Physically modifying the design to include a cutout damaged the protective film so it kept lifting up around the new cutout. I tried very carefully with an exacto knife and straight edge and still ended up ruining all three. If you are buying this for an iPhone, just go get an Apple product, it'll be cheaper in the long run.",314,1 +315,"Perfect phone for my needs + +And what are those needs?- I wanted a phone a step below a smartphone with cool features... no need for web browsing, navigator or the higher priced data packages.- small enough to fit in my pocket- physical qwerty keyboard for tons of texting (the touchscreen qwertys really irritated me so buh-bye iPhone and Samsung Eternity)- decent cameraI narrowed it down to the LG Xenon and the Samsung Impression. They are both great and are almost identical in looks and features. The Xenon won for two reasons: the price on amazon at the time of purchase (a penny vs. $49) and the size... the Impression is just a tad larger. Also, I've owned many LG phones with Verizon (switched because of no reception at my parent's new home) so I guess I could throw in brand loyalty to that list.And after five days of ownership, here are some PROS: great battery life, very intuitive, responsive and bright touchscreen, memory slot is easily accessible on the side, three tabs on the homepage to organize/group your favorite contacts(very useful!), the camera (with flash) is AWESOME even at just 2MP, the huge and rubbery qwerty keyboard and I actually like the blue ""xenon"" color. And judging from the LG phones I've owned in the past, this phone should be very durable and reliable.CONS: the speakerphone is horrible for both the talker and the listener (kind of a shocker because all my past LG phones had great speakerphones) and I'd like it if the slider were a bit more resistant (now I'm just nitpicking).Overall a great phone!**** UPDATE: 5/15/09 ****I had to return the phone. AT&T;'s service was horrible in my area (San Francisco Bay Area). Tons of dropped calls and static. I asked a few friends who also have AT&T; (which I should've done before switching over) and they agreed about the service. Most of them are iPhone users and put up with the terrible service just to keep the iPhone!It's a shame because the phone really is good... but I think a phone is only as good as the service you're getting. Also, I did find a few more flaws during my three weeks with the phone:- noticeable scratches and scuff marks on the keyboard from the slider.- slight freezing with the three homepage touchscreen buttons on top (favorite contacts, home, star features)- the enunciator drop down menu (accessed by pressing on the top edge of the touchscreen) stopped working altogether- phone randomly didn't ring for incoming calls, but would alert me if caller left a voicemail. (not sure if it's a phone issue or an issue with AT&T;'s horrid service)- phone would occasionally freeze when trying to make outbound callsThe freezing issues with the touchscreen and outgoing calls may be a bit of a concern. I noticed it started to do it after I loaded the phone with contacts, pictures, text messages, etc... So I would take away one star if I could.And I have to just mention that it was a bit of a pain to return. It took about four days before I finally got the right info. I spoke to three Amazon reps and some were clueless about the return process. One guy put me on hold for five minutes before telling me he would just email me instructions... the email arrived two days later but required I call AGAIN to get authorization. Just a very clumsy and disorganized return process. So my suggestion is if you're going to go through Amazon, be sure that this is the phone you want.I decided to go with another online retailer for my replacement. Not sure if I can post the company on here, but feel free to ask me privately for the info. They were great and definitely instilled more confidence in their buying and return procedures. (this is the first time I've had to return anything to Amazon, so I'm not sure if this is common or just isolated with the cell phone department.)So now I'm now with T-mobile and received my new Blackberry Curve 8900.

I had put on a universal protector that didn't even last a week. And it didn't work well. We read the instructions and watched the video. My husband insisted on using gloves, which worked fine for him. He didn't have any issues getting it on, and it didn't take too long. He had never done a wet application before, but he had done many dry ones over the years.I left my phone off to dry for about 18 hours and had no issues when I turned it on. You can't tell there is a screen protector on. No bubbles or lint, just perfect. Much better to have one meant for your phone. :)Overall a great item for my new phone.Just a quick update on 6/23/2013 - the screen protector is still working great, can't really tell its there and its awesome.Another quick update on 7/12/2013 - still loving it - still can't really tell its there.Another update on 8/13/2013 - still happy with the protector, it works great and is hard to even notice its there.

Its fast...real fast I love that! The design is sleek, the screen is big and its very comfortable in my hands! I love that the camera i have taken some extremly nice pics even in the pitch dark!The most important feature on a phone to me is the camera and this is a extremly good camera for $160!

The sound from the phone is great and I havnt found anything to complain about I am really happy with this phone. a friend of mine purchased it for me from amazon and it arrived ontime as well!I can stream movies from the free movie sites and watch online while im mobile, thats a first for me and here in the bahamas the edge sucks! So beleive me...this phone is fast!Compared to my LG Optimus Me the only thing that would of made this phone more awesome is if i can turn my EDGE on and off as desired. This was a neat feature with my Optimus Me just having to pull down the notification bar and tapping to turn on/off the Edge. Also its not a big problem but sometimes I wish the phone had at least two hard keys like. These are minor things though and I still wouldnt trade my Defy MB525 for anything :DUPDATE** DEC 17 2012I forgot to mention that even thought the box and the description of this phone said that it comes with a 2g SD card...it doesn't! I saw that some others mentioned that in their review and just thought I should let you know that too. This was not a big deal to me. I already had a SD card in my Optimus so I just put it in my Defy when i changed the SIM...Someone also said that the APN has to be set that is true also. I thought all APN's on what ever unlocked phone you purchase would have to be set if your not buying it from your service provider...Any Way It took me like two hours to figure out how to set it KML! Which was really dumb of me considering how easy it was! (im not sure if it was in the manual I didnt read it lol) Any way setting up the manual was simple. All you had to do was1.go to settings2.go to wireless & network settings3. tap mobile networks4. tap 'Access Point Names'5. instead of being dumb like me and tapping the screen for the longest and holding it down for minutes and minutes and wondering why its not responding............................just press the first soft key at the bottom on the left side of your phone (not sure what its called the one with the 4 little boxes)6. Then tap 'New APN'7. Set a 'Name'8. Set a 'APN' if you dont know your service provider APN call them and get it from them, SIMPLE!.9. leave everything else as it is press the go back button and you will be prompt to save.****UPDATE** Decemeber 31 2012I recently found out how to turn the edge on and off. What you have to do is:1. Go to settings2. Tap on 'Data Manager'3. Tap on 'Data Delivery'4. Uncheck the box next to 'Data Enabled'That should do it.

It is thin, good quality leather, and the phone fits well. However, the case is so shiny when you try to take a picture with the phone inside, it picks up on the shine and puts a glare in your photo. I usually just take out the phone to get a clear picture. I also wish the phone would fit the opposite way. in order to talk you have to flip the lid at the bottom or keep the whole thing straight... making it cumbersome. To charge it is also difficult, you have to leave the case laid out open because the charging part is on the bottom. Again if the phone fit the opposite way it would be a lot better.",325,0 +326,"Holes don't line up but overall decent + +I was looking for a hot pink, translucent TPU case which is exactly what this is. However, the hole cut-outs do not line up perfectly. Instead, everything seems like it is shifted towards the left slightly. After putting the case on several times and moving the phone around within it, the microphone on the bottom was finally uncovered. Because the case button does not line with the power button correctly, it makes it more difficult to press the power button (the volume ""buttons"" line up with the entire volume bar perfectly). The cut out for the camera is off center and looks a little silly (because there is a lot of the phone showing on one side of the lens but not the other) but does not cover the camera or flash. The case is loose around the sides, which is unexpected since the side buttons are covered and not open.The case itself is thick enough so that the phone feels protected - if dropped I'm sure the case is thick enough to absorb a lot of the shock unlike thinner TPU cases. I've always used TPU cases on my phones and have never had issues. It's not super ""grippy"" although it won't fly out of your hand either. It seems a little more ""grippy"" on the sides than the back. Comparing it to my iPhone TPU case (with the phone still in it), it's actually less likely to go flying out of my hand. The case doesn't add a lot of additional bulk which is always nice. The case is also just thick enough that the raised camera no longer touches flat surfaces. So both the screen in the front and the camera on the back have a small barrier when on a flat surface.",326,1 +327,"Cool case. Looks better in the image + +I like the case but the picture quality should be a lot better. But the concept is still there so it was a good buy.",327,0 +328,"A Real Review From A IPHONE User + +Unfortunately the majority of the knocks on the LUMIA 900 and the Windows OS (MANGO) are so obviously written from a ""...because its not like the IPHONE"" point of view. I struggled for a longtime with the decision to break away from the APPLE ecosystem. I have a IPAD but I still use my PC for productivity. The IPAD and the IPHONE work together so seamlessly. All my plugs and adapters work together so why not stay with APPLE?The fact is that the change isn't nearly as dramatic as I thought it would be and the phone works beautifully. I wanted something different and because WINDOWS/NOKIA is competing they throw everything at you. For $99, I get built in Navigation (voiced), Transit schedules (every major city and then some), Maps (for online and offline use), Text Messaging (read & written by voice via bluetooth), Code Scanners (those weird boxes u see in magazine ads and store windows), etc. Yeah I know the IPHONE has all that for $100 more. The reality is that the specs are irrelevant to most of you. Someone writes that the IPHONE's pixel density on the screen is superior. Trust me when I tell u that you won't notice. That is for someone looking for a writing point. The camera? Well the Iphone 4s does have sharper pictures but again you won't notice much and I use my Canon for important pictures anyway. ITUNES versus ZUNE. It seems like a pain to have both since I still use my shuffle for the gym but want content on my windows phone. Its not. Unlike ITUNES, ZUNE isn't a space hog and easily reads the music on your computer and translates it to Zune format for easy transfer to your phone. Perfect, even though I don't use my phone in the gym but only keep podcasts on my phone. The ITUNES APP STORE is bigger by far but I find that with the exception of Words With Friends I miss nothing. APPS are overrated since most of us only use 20% of the ones on our phone.As for the size of the LUMIA, ask yourself why the new IPHONE is getting a larger screen? The LUMIA is not hard to hold but no it is not as small as the Iphone. You get used to it just like you got use to the touch screen when you thought that wasn't gonna ever happen. Well that is a good thing since many of us have started using our phone to type emails and documents*, watch movies, play games, etc. The bigger screen is so much better for those things. You buy a case which has rubberized grips and your fine. Besides, the LUMIA's build quality is great and doesn't bulge crazy in my suit jacket. It is just fine in my car cup holder and obviously a bag holds everything fine. So, ignore the APPLE shilling among the AT&T; employees (they get a bigger commission I suspect from the IPHONE)and jump on the next cool thing and stop being like everyone else. You will have no buyers remorse. This phone is beautiful. *Microsoft Office on your phone has the wonderful benefit of making editing, downloading, and reading documents on your phone a wonderfully easy and intuitive experience.",328,0 +329,"Great way to kill cord anxiety + +We have two problems in our house (well, I have two problems, my wife couldn't care):1. One of us will always forget to charge a phone, so it was common that right as we walk out one of us would start cussing at the phone for having a near-drained battery.2. It's hard to remember to turn off WiFi and/or GPS when not using it, which means that the phone is usually draining the battery faster than needed.With iPhones we were basically doomed until the newer generations came with better batteries. We ditched our iPhones for Blackberries, which meant having access to spare batteries and even higher capacity (fat back) batteries but we never went that route. We just switched to Samsung Intercept Android phones, and I decided that it was time to get us spare batteries and a charger to try to minimize these two problems.And it worked!Instead of relying on remembering to charge the phones, what we do is if we are in the house, once we see a battery down to yellow we simply swap it. I keep the charger close to my desk in my home office, so I can easily tell that the charger is done or that it is empty and it should be charging one of the drained batteries. Even if one of us forgets to swap batteries, there are two charged batteries ready to be used. If both of us leave the house together, I pocket the two extra batteries, so no cord anxiety while on the road.The funny thing is that since we got the extra batteries my wife has been more proactive at checking the charge on her phone, and it is obvious that she likes not having to plug the phone because this is how she forgets to pick up the phone before she leaves the house.In terms of charge, these batteries perform close to identically to the units that shipped with the phones.For the price, this kind of flexibility is at steal, I would had gladly paid twice as much per battery.",329,0 +330,"Great Case for the price! + +I was looking for a slim case that would really show off the design of my HTC One (M8).

Besides that, the case is sturdy and looks great.",332,0 +333,"awesome + +I am very happy with this product. Its a sturdy case, cute and much more reasonable in price. I paid for express shipping and it took about 3 business days, not bad at all, shipped the same day I bought it. Overall I am very happy with this product & customer service. I bought my husband this same case before I found one for myself on Amazon for much less :) and he loves it too. Great product.Thank you save_ur_money_with_me",333,0 +334,"Best quality and customer service + +I've been ordering screen protectors for myself, friends and family from all sorts of different vendors and I'm being 100% honest when I say none of them were as good as the ones I've received from OEM Planet. I'm not working for them or anything, I just want to share my experience.Now before I ordered from OEM Planet, I bought some at the apple store and also on here from another vendor I won't mention. Now I'm not going to say they sucked, but the ones from the amazon vendor didn't even have a cutout for the front camera and the ones from the apple store were good for a few days and then just got destroyed with scratches. I'd literally put a new protector on, use it with clean hands, go and put it in my pocket and it would come out with scratches all over it.So about a month back, I came across this 5 pack and saw that OEM Planet had the best rating out of all the vendors and decided to give them a try. First off, I ordered them on a Sunday and received them on Wednesday morning (they are located in New York). I put them on and they fit absolutely perfect. IT'S NOT HARD TO PUT ON A SCREEN PROTECTOR, PEOPLE! It's called wipe your phone down, blow off any excess fibers from the phone, line up the protector and put it on. If you still think it's hard, the invoice that comes with the protectors even has a youtube link on it. I've been using the same screen protector for over a week now and you can't even tell it's there. It feels just like the glass screen (I know that might sound stupid but some other protectors out there feel rubbery or even sticky). So overall, for less then $3 for 5 protectors, you just can't go wrong.. I mean, why would you ever buy them at a store that charges $10+ for 2 or 3 when they are the same quality as these??Also, the last thing I wanna say is that OEM Planet's customer service is top notch. I ordered another 5 pack about a week ago for my girlfriend and when they came, there were only 4. I wasn't angry or anything considering they were less than $3, but I still emailed them just to let them know. I had a response within a few hours and this afternoon, there was another 5 pack in my mailbox. Name another vendor that would do that.. I'll wait..",334,0 +335,"necesito que me ayuden + +necesito 2 sim desbloqueadas como esta de straight talk. Que funcione para att y no la puedo conseguir por favor necesito ayuda.",335,1 +336,"I approve other then sound issues + +I ordered my case and received it in just a few days. I had a few questions about the case so I called the number provided and left a message. Someone called me back within 10 minutes. The customer service is fantastic. Very nice and knowledgable people. I did the water test and to my surprise it passed. After I dried it off and went to open it to put my phone inside I couldn't open it! It took me 20 minutes to finally open it. I used bobby pins, coins, knifes, etc. A bottle cap was the only thing I could find that would work. But once I used that it popped right open. I think it's good that it's that hard to open, it insures me that no water is going to get inside. I have had my phone inside it for a week now and so far it's been great. I haven't submerged my phone in the water yet but I'm sure it'll work. The only problems I find are when you are talking to someone and your on speaker phone, the person your talking to can't hear you. Also, music or any type of sound is muffled and not loud at all. The home button is also very stiff and you have to really push it hard for it to work. It's hard to find a durable phone case, especially for the 5c so having a few minor flaws are worth it to me. I think it's a little pricy considering the sound quality sucks compared to it's competitors but If your looking for a good durable case for the 5c and don't mind the sound issues this is a alright deal.",336,0 +337,"The first ""must-have"" smartphone... ever. + +First of all, the Galaxy Note II is more than just another smartphone. It is a ""must-have workhorse"" that is the first and only smartphone to deserve this title. Comparing other smartphones to the Note II is ridiculous... they don't compare! The Note II is not a phone and it's not a tablet. The Note II is a sleek and solid powerhouse that does the work of a desktop, tablet and cell phone, all in one pocket-size device. How do you compare an iphone to that? You don't!Size: When I brought my Note II home and showed it to my teenage kids, no kidding, they thought I was BS-ing them that this was my new phone. It is big -- but not too big. Trust me on this. It still fits in pockets, pants, shirts or otherwise. Once I used it as my daily driver for a week I went back to my Galaxy S II and that once-great phone seemed like a toy. This phone hits the sweet-spot first and most importantly for get-work-done screen real estate. The less scrolling, the bigger the text, the more you see, the faster you get things done. THIS IS HUGE! Less important but great as well is the entertainment aspect of the Note II in video viewing, internet browsing and gaming. Again, trust me on this. Use the Note II for a week and worries of an iPad to your ear as a phone quickly fade. All other phones will look tiny and toy-like by comparison.Speed: I am a power user. There isn't a phone currently that can hold a candle to the power user experience on a Note II. The 1.6ghz quad-core processor and 2gb ram is the first smartphone I've used (previous best was a dual-core 1.5ghz, 1gb ram) that NEVER, EVER stutters, hangs, or goes into sleep mode when you ask it to do several processor-intensive tasks simultaneously. Stream audio, shoot photos or video, run your navigation, use your internet browser and then open a Word document all at once on any other phone and see what happens -- deep sleep, sudden reboot, freezing and so on. NOT SO WITH THE NOTE II! I have yet to run into an application/processor use scenario that even so much as slows down the Note II. Amazing!Magic: Okay, the Note II isn't magic, but it does a few things no other smartphone I've used or even know if is capable of. First, I use internet based applications for work in my real estate business. The Note II is the first and only phone I know of that runs EVERY web-based program I use as if I was on my laptop. It is the first smartphone that runs large web-based programs like my Multiple Listing program, or bank REO programs in a manner that is identical to my Sony VAIO laptop. Again, THIS IS A BIG DEAL! There have now been a number of times I have left my laptop in my office, my Nexus 7 tablet at home, and used only my Note II for everything at work -- email, word processing, photo editing, web-based computing. Impossible with an iPhone.Magic II: The S-Pen seems gimmicky at first, and let's face it, Steve Jobs calling your finger the best stylus ever, was right. But the more you use the included S-Pen and the apps that interact with it the more you realize how awesome the stylus is. Note taking in the S-Note app is easy and simple if you want simple. But, if you're like me and you want to max-out what a device will do, the S-Note/S-Pen learning curve is a little steep but well worth the time. Note taking with the S-Pen/S-Note combination is like pen and paper, Photoshop, digital camera, chalkboard with eraser, and MS Word all wrapped into one steroid-charged smartphone app. It is amazing. S-Note alone with all of its features has replaced 10-15 of my previously most used apps. It's Evernote, Freenote, Tasker, aCalendar+ and more, all in one. I've honestly never been so organized thanks to Samsung's S-Note/S-Pen combination and the S-Pen interactive apps.Magic III: (Sorry -- I'm running out of ways to explain how great and unique the Note II is.) The S-Pen, besides how fantastic it is using the S-Note app, allows you to annotate almost everything on your smartphone. It can take notes on your built-in calendar app, just like you do on your refrigerator calendar! Anything you see on your screen, from a webpage, pdf file, email, photo, etc., can easily be screen-captured and then written on with the virtual pen and saved. I can't say enough about how functional and downright awesome the S-Pen stylus is.Everything else: The CAMERA is excellent. HD video, built-in burst mode, HDR settings and more make the Note II camera the best smartphone camera I've ever used. The built-in Samsung VIRTUAL KEYBOARD is excellent. It has a swype mode. If you've used swype you know how great it is. The keyboard is integrated with the S-Pen allowing you to literally scribble text as it transcribes your handwriting into text, instead of using the virtual keyboard. Again, it is awesome. (It is the first virtual keyboard capable of replacing my once-favorite FlexT9/Dragon dictation keyboard.) The SCREEN QUALITY is great both indoors and outdoors. It is the first smartphone you may actually want to watch Netflix and Hulu Plus content on. The WEB BROWSER is the closest thing in a truly mobile device (try putting an iPad or Galaxy Tab 10 in you pocket) that runs the internet like my Sony laptop. The EXTERNAL SPEAKER matches or beats many of the aftermarket mini-box speakers out there. The audio from music and video is loud, crisp and clear on the built-in external speaker. More: I could go on with video chat, voice recorder, Samsung photo editor, frame rates and more, but it's just more of the same awesome.Negative: The ONLY negatives for me with the Note II are... the battery, limitations of Android 4.1 Jelly Bean and the 16gb internal memory on U.S. carrier versions of the Note II. Others have talked up the great battery life of the Note II, but probably more than anything else spec-wise, ""great"" is a relative term. Yes, using the Note II like a normal smartphone/iPhone/Android phone you can get more than a day's use out of the battery. In my use-everything-all-the-time user experience I get 5-7 hours of battery on a bad day, and 10-12 hours of battery on a good day. 5-7 hrs if you're streaming video, using the camera or watching continuous video is nothing to scoff at. It's pretty darn good. Since I use my phone heavily all day, every day, while by no means a deal breaker, it's the most notable albeit minor negative. There are aftermarket battery/back cover solutions that will turn the 3100mah stock battery into a 6200+mah battery. That might work for some, but I also love how relatively light and thin the Note II is, so I carry around another fully charged spare battery in my pocket at all times. Then there's the minor issue of Android 4.1 not allowing for app-to-sd transfer of applications -- making the 16gb version of the Note II a little sparse in terms of on-board memory. Yes, you can use a 64gb sd card, but honestly, limiting applications to the phone's built-in memory, if you play any of the memory-intensive games (Need for Speed, Broken Sword, Modern Combat, and countless others), really is barely enough on-board memory. Again, both memory and the ability to move large applications to the sd card are relative to the user and may not be a negative for many users. If Samsung and Google update the Android 4.1 OS making app-to-sd transfers possible, then the 16gb version would be just fine. Let's hope that Android update is in the works! The good news is that the Note II, as a flagship device, is certain to get updates to the OS for maybe as long as two years or so.Conclusion: If you're thinking about getting the Galaxy Note II, but think it's too big, STOP THINKING! GET IT! Odds are you will never go back to your 3.5"", 4"" or 4.5"" screen smartphone again.",337,0 +338,"Using kickstand to take front-facing pic or vid result flipped images in computer + +This case is well made in good quality. I give it 4 stars because of 2 issues.1. When using the kickstand on the back of this case to record a landscape video or a picture with the front camera (like in a restaurant with my kids), the picture or video will all end up showing up side down in my computer. It's annoying but not hard to rotate a picture in a computer, but with a video being shot upside down, there's simply no easy way to correct it. And you can't just turn the case 180 degree to make the stand pop on the opposite side due to the hole on the case must align with the camera. So the kickstand stance is fixed in a wrong way IMO on the inner shell.2. So I thought I could use the kickstand on the outer shell (the belt clip) to set the phone the way I could render images correctly on my computer, only to realize that the phone doesn't want to slide smoothly in the belt clip holder with the glass side of my phone facing out (it gets really tight just half way in). So that brings to my next issue with this case: if it's designed to load the phone face in (as seen in the product picture), what good is there to use the clip/kickstand as if you can still watch a movie or do Facetime while the phone is tucked in the holder. I just don't get the purpose/function of the outer kickstand if I can't have the option of loading the phone with the glass side facing out. Why do I need a stand to look at the back of my phone, which is the inner kickstand.I resorted to just sliding the phone half way with the glass side facing out (using the outer stand) when taking a photo of myself with kids.",338,0 +339,"Good concept but magnet causes my iphone to act funny + +I really like the idea of just being able to just pop my iPhone 5 directly to the mount without having to deal with clipping it in or arms to hold it.

I even tried applying pressure for 20 minutes to hold the glass down on the screen to no avail. It seems that the rigidity of the glass does not allow it to conform to the screen unless the screen and the glass are perfectly flat planes. Returned it to Spigen and went back to Zagg invisible shield with a wet application and a plastic film - no bubbles or air gaps. Not as purely transparent as the idea of glass, but more effective in practice.",342,0 +343,"Works with Kindle, not with HTC G2 smartphone + +Will not work with devices that draw much amperage.

We had a friend in the states mail this to us and I'm very glad I took the time to do that. The Wifi is great, I wanted this phone particularly because of it. Now we can go to any wifi hotspot in the world and I can use my Vonage account to make free phone calls to the US. (Big Plus for military!) The MP3 player is great.

What I like most of all is the empty USB socket on the wall and lighter chargers so you can (a) quickly swap out between your car and home, and (b) plug in other devices that charge with a USB cable that in the end allows you to carry less devices. If I could recommend an improvement - and I admit this is picky - to the charging set is to make the lighter adapter and the wall unit a dual charger so you can charge more than one thing at a time.The micro USB cord is a handy 3+ feet long, which allowed me to let the kids charge something while sitting in the back seat of the car, plus it also allows you to reach further away wall sockets and tuck away the cord vs. having cords laying all over the counter at home.Throwing in the stylus is an added bonus. The stylus is pretty nice for my Kindle Fire as well as my iPad (yes, the Kindle guy has an iPad he uses for work) as it slides easily across the screen and is about the ""right"" size to hold in a man's hand.The components of this set are not the lower-quality replacement charging components we have all purchased at some time in our lives - they appear to be very durable, and I don't think I'm going to break off an end after pulling on the cord to take it out of the adapter to switch it to either the car charging unit or the wall unit.If you're looking for a good-quality, combined charging setup, I would highly recommend this one.",362,0 +363,"Don't get the negative reviews + +I was reluctant to order this charger by virtue of all the negative reviews about how it wouldn't charge and iPhone 5 in a car accessory socket.

I hate cell phones. Early this century, I bought the cheapest flip phone -- black & white, no camera -- that I could find, and kept it till 2011. I only made calls once or twice a year -- seriously -- and gave my number to no one, so no one could call my cell phone. I prefer landlines and email. I've never texted in my life.After a billing dispute with Verizon in 2011 concerning their broadband wireless card, I canceled all my Verizon wireless accounts, cell phone included. So I've not had any cell phone for over two years. I didn't miss it.But now I might do some heavy traveling (within the U.S.), so I decided to finally get a smart phone, so I could have GPS, internet, and email in my new cities.After my experience with Verizon, I knew I wanted a flat rate plan. I initially got an Android flat rate phone at Staples, but it was more complicated than I cared to figure out, so I returned it. Then I saw this Nokia uses Windows. I've used Windows on my laptops since 1996, so I figured it'd be easy.This Nokia -- with the MetroPCS flat rate plan -- turned out to be a good choice for the cell phone hater in me. It's easy to figure out -- important for those who've never used a smart phone. You can download an easy-to-understand PDF manual from their website.I've yet to download an "app", but the ones that came with the Nokia are useful. A GPS that locates where I am -- quick and easy and accurate. Another GPS that provides all nearby mass transit options, schedules, and routes -- very useful if visiting a new city. Another GPS that locates nearby restaurants, tourists sites, etc.There's a Weather Channel app which is easy to use (though not always accurate -- once the app told me there was 0% chance of rain where I was -- even as I was holding an umbrella to keep the pouring rain off my Nokia.)There's a free Angry Birds app, with free Angry Birds movies. I had no idea what Angry Birds was. I learned on Wikipedia that it's a video game. Luckily, it was easy to delete, movies and all.It's easy to connect this Nokia to my laptop, and transfer MP3 podcasts and MP4 movies onto it. (I've not tried other formats.)I have not tried to download podcasts or movies directly onto the Nokia.I find the touch screen to be bright and sharp, with good color saturation (though admittedly, it's my first smart phone, so I've nothing to compare it to).The Nokia's still camera and video camera are easy to use. The images are okay, not that great -- nowhere near as good as the images from my Sony Cybershot, which is 3 years older. But I don't suppose a smart phone's camera can be expected to match that of a dedicated digital camera.Some reviewers have complained that the Nokia's camera lacks a flash. This is true. But then, I didn't get a cell phone to use as a camera.The MetroPCS plan I signed on for is $40 a month, all taxes and fees included. So far, that's been the case. Payment is easy. I log onto their website (via my laptop), and easily find where to pay another $40 for another month. I like that I can control when and how much I pay -- unlike my past experience with Verizon, with their unexpected charges.Since the MetroPCS plan is flat fee, I sometimes use my Nokia instead of my landline. I've had some problems there. Three times I called the post office, and when I finally got through (average wait, 50 minutes), I was disconnected shortly after I began speaking to the postal rep. I wonder if this was the post office's fault, or if my face brushed some part of the Nokia's touch screen that caused it to hang up.I used the Nokia's speaker phone option while the post office put me on hold. So yes, this phone has a speaker phone.The only catch in MetroPCS's plan is that, while phone and text are unlimited, if your data use goes over a certain amount during the month (I forget how much -- 500 MB, I think), then the data speed lowers from 4G to 3G. But I don't download much data, so it's not an issue for me. I mainly got this phone for emergencies when I travel.Not the highest-tech phone -- no flash, so-so camera -- but a cheap, HONEST rate plan, and easy to use for those already familiar with Windows.",370,0 +371,"Looks the same as the Google bumper + +I have both this bumper case and the Google branded bumper case.

I wound up driving around holding the unit pointed into my ear just to get sufficient volume, thus defeating the "hands-free" aspect of the device. 2) Its hard exterior become painfully uncomfortable after 10 minutes or so of talking and I had to often switch ears mid-conversation. 3) People I talked to often complained about being able to hear me while driving, even with all windows up and the radio off. 4) after these four months, the speaker just died on me, and I'll have to buy another one!I will be trying the over-the-ear-with-a-boom-mic or the all-in-ear models next.

Period. That's all you really need to know. But, for those interested, some other facts and observations....Note: we are using the Sprint versions of the iPhone, so that is the same as Verizon CDMA. I cannot vouch for it fitting an ATT phone.The only thing of possible initial concern was what other reviewers have said - the ""mute"" button is a tad close or tight but still COMPLETELY workable and NOT so (at least in my view) that it will cause a problem if the phone dropped. NO problems with taking pictures. NO problems with not ""blacking out the screen"" when talking on the phone --yes, people still talk on a smartphone!! :)Some folks fuss about possible dust and wet, etc. Well, while it isn't pretty, just take a sealable sandwich bag and wrap around the case on those instances where you know you will be getting in rough dusty or even wet situations. Works great, very cheap, and no one sees it anyway if you are riding a tractor or whatever! The Otterbox still clamps tight through the bag. Better yet, the touch screen still works through this extra layer as well! Why spend 70+ bucks on something that will muffle your voice in another case?In total fairness, I admit I was EXTREMELY concerned about folks saying it didn't fit or was too close to the mute button or that the sensor would be blocked. So, I waited until a few reviews came in on fitting into the iPhone 4S. Well, none of these concerns, at least in OUR case, have caused any issue. Just my two cents (actually a saved $25+).

I have had it for 2 weeks and the battery life is great. Reception and call quality are excellent. AM-OLED screen is terrific. The phone came with 8gb microSDHC pre-installed which was a nice surprise because this was not apparent from the Amazon descriptions. Pictures are good for a cell phone digicam. I used the GPS once and it locked down the Sats plenty fast from a cold start but I haven't tried turn by turn directions yet. MP3 player outputs nice and loud by selecting headsets option when plugging in my AUX jack for my car stereo.So far am very happy with the phones swiss army knife options lists and performance except that (and I am not sure how the other amazon reviewers missed this)the N85's plastic housing is very cheap and flimsy. The battery compartment lid is loose and rattles like a cheap dollar store toy made in dime store factory. The plastic finish also scratches very easily. I am very afraid of dropping this phone and so immediately ran out to get a good snug case and belt clip for it. My last phone was an all metal Motorola SLVR L7 which was built like a Sherman Tank though options wise and call quality cannot compare to the N85 but in contrast the N85 falls way short of the outstanding build, materials and finish of my old SLVR L7.Lessons learned is that this is the last time I will buy an expensive unsubsidized phone without seeing it in real life first. Had I done that I would of passed on the N85. My advise to Nokia is to go back to tight fitting aluminum or any other high quality metal casing builds and keep plastics for the $200 and under phone lines or I will not be a repeat customer for their $400 and over smart phones ever again.Btw, Amazon was great with their overnight shipping and I had the N85 in my hands the day I had to fly out of country just before the holidays.

This also means that you can leave your device plugged in all night without it actually charging. I've tried cutting down the plastic around the connector to see if it would help, but no luck.

This Motorola charger will charge your phone eventually, but really really slowly. That maybe OK if you can let it charge all night (at least 8 hours).

I can easily get 2-3 days out of the watch and only takes around an hour to an hour and a half to fully charge.- Great screen- Most any option I could think of is there (screen brightness, volume, vibration, etc.).- Light on my wrist, fits well.Things I don't:- I wish "Google Now" was an option.- I got the gray watch. It's not that pretty. I should have got black and then ordered an aftermarket black band.- Lack of apps. Basically all app store apps suck. If you plan on getting this, get it for the Samsung included apps otherwise this isn't for you.

A bonus is the system charges the iPad while docked - the stand pivots to portrait or landscape with multiple viewing angles for optimal comfort - just tilt the iPad for viewing or typing. The speaker base is solid, yet not excessively heavy. The remote controller in iPod mode can be used to choose songs and videos from your library. However, some buttons (i.e. MENU, BACK) only work with my iPhone 4 and iPod Touch 3GS. The sound quality is very good, in fact better than expected, especially when playing NetFlix movies. The unit is very compact 4.33H by 8.66W by 6.06D inches - it fits neatly in most places, even a lap table. The small remote allows you to change apps, tunes, adjust volume and according to the manufacturer is compatible with the all iPad, iPod and iPhone models. The MP450 works well with my iPad (WiFi), iPhone 4 and iPod Touch. It allows using non-docking portable audio or video device. I tried using my Pioneer GEX-XMp3 radio with excellent results - it has a 3.5mm auxiliary jack for hooking up other audio stuff.

Yes, it did crash.I had this phone for 2 weeks now, and I love it. Note that my review is for the phone not the buyer, since I didn't order via Amazon. This is my first HTC phone, I had a Dell Streak 5 (runs Android 2.2) before which was huge, and the CPU and the RAM were not that powerful, so it used to freeze quite often, specially with too many apps running. This one runs very smoothly, even though it is not a dual core processor.I was not sure if I should get this one or the HTC Desire HD. They system Spec are very similar. Since I was sick of the 5 inch phone, I chose the Desire S (3.7 inch) vs the HD (4.3 inch). The price is very similar, the HD should be available with 2.3 Gingerbread by now. The HD has an 8 MP camera which seems to be really good, and much better than the Desire S MP. On the other hand, The Desire S has a front camera which is cool for Skype video calls. Yes, Desire S was one of the first Android phones along with the Nexus S to run Skype video chat. Nexus S was another option that I might have gone with, check it out. Desire S camera is very impressive if there is enough lighting around, and it shoots 720p video, which is very crisp.The screen is not that bad under sun light. yes, you want be read or browse properly, but you will be able to see who is calling (something I was unable to do with previous handsets).Main disadvantage, as with many smart phones, is the battery life. I charge it daily over night, so it lasts me the whole day with moderate use (checking email, browsing, connected to WiFi, and Bluetooth headset most of the time). It charges via mini USB, so it can be charged almost anywhere.Final thoughts: Check some youtube comparisons, and the HTC website they explain all their features. I got mine unlocked cause I don't want to commit to a contract, thus it came from the UK. This means a European 3G frequency, so you cannot connect 3G via your network provider, so you may wanna check if that's the case for you. For me, I wanted that cause I mainly use Wi-Fi (Home, work, and most of the cafes has it) plus I will be moving overseas and the 3G will work over there.Based on my needs I give it 5 stars, you may prefer HTC Desire HD, or Nexus S for a similar price... or even go fancier with HTC sensation dual core processor.UPDATE: I would say 4 stars for the hassle, hoping that the problem won't happen again.It died after HTC OTA update. The phone is under global warranty (originally from Europe). The motherboard had to be changed. HTC USA honored the warranty, and replaced the motherboard for $20. However, they had to order it from Taiwan, and I was without it for a month! I'm glad I got it back, I like the phone, but nervous that this would happen again! I will be reading feedback about future updates before I download them. If the phone was under contract (not unlocked) the carrier would issue an immediate replacement. So, it sucks that I paid the MSRP and had to wait for a month. I would suggest Nexus S, but I read similar things.

I previously owned the *ancient* Sony Ericsson z500a, which I was very unhappy with--EXTREMELY bad battery life, picture quality was less-than-mediocre, but the call quality was good. So, before I bought my next phone, I was looking for a phone with a good camera (one that takes acceptable pictures; you can't expect much from a camera phone) and exceptional battery life, as I talk on the phone for around 2-3 hours a day. The Sony Ericsson battery lasted for about 12 hours and then I'd have to charge it.This phone fit the bill perfectly. Talking 2-3 hours a day plus using the alarm, datebook, and text messaging regularly and the battery lasts for about 3 days (which is more than exceptional for my standards). The camera takes decent pictures--you can actually make out what the object in the picture is!--and I'm quite satisfied with it.It also comes with Bluetooth, which I haven't been able to take advantage of but hopefully will in the future. The datebook is very handy and the alarm system is quite nice; you can set separate settings for several alarms. The ticker, although marketed with much hype, is not all that great and I disabled it within having the phone for 2 hours.As far as games are concerned, my phone came with a Bejeweled Demo and NFL Football 2005 Demo. It irks me that they're both demos, but with phones these days they rarely have complimentary ones available without having to pay.The text messaging is refreshing compared to my old phone and is very fast, no lag. Ringtone selection is slim, but viable. In the preferences, you can customize the order of the icons on the menu and what the home screen shows, your background, wallpaper, theme, sounds, etc.The reception is also quite good.Summary:PROs* Battery life* Reception* CameraCONs* Address book; I'd like to have one name and several numbers listed under it instead of having copies of one name with one different number for each* Live ticker* Can't change the format of the pictures (sepia, black & white, etc)Overall, good camera for the price (I got it free from Cingular!)",408,0 +409,"Bad Choice! + +I didn't like anything about this case.

I cant wait to use the live tracking on my next adventure.",414,0 +415,"Could have been the best + +I should preface my review with some information. I am not the world's leading expert on screen protector installation. And neither is the average user. That being said, this isn't my first screen protector install and many before have been trouble-free. Also, this is not an "average" screen protector from the leading "W-branded" brick and mortar retailer. It's also definitely better quality than you'd find at the local dollar store. One would expect the quality of a screen protector that sets you back half as much as one of those leading "O-brand" phone cases to be pretty good. And for the most part, the actual glass part of this screen protector is VERY GOOD quality. Think of it this way: Would you buy a hand-made Rolls Royce (for the price of a Rolls Royce) if it came with a maintenance plan that only permitted you to have it serviced at a Yugo dealer? The ballistic glass screen protector is the Rolls Royce in this example--sleek, sexy and very high quality. The "tools" to install this beast just aren't up to the task and neither are the instructions. So 5 stars for the high quality material of the actual screen protector and -2 stars for the Yugo-grade tools included in the package equals my 3 star rating. Let me explain...Some people talk about installing this (or any screen protector for that matter) in a steamy bathroom as a way to ensure that there are not dust particles falling onto the screen during the install. Those are the people who were successful at installing it without bubbles from specks of dust. Even after watching the Youtube video and reading the instructions that came with this screen protector, I still managed to get 3 dust particles trapped between the screen and the protector. I did not do the install in a steamy bathroom, as I didn't want to accidentally trigger the water damage labels on a brand new phone. Perhaps I would have taken that chance if I knew it was the only way to avoid ending up with bubbles despite all of my attempts to do the install in the cleanest of conditions. Perhaps if the instructions were to tell the user to install it in a steamy bathroom (and explain why), along with better quality installation "tools", this would have been a 5-star review.The pros:--Better quality material than the flimsy plastic screen protectors (great feel vs. those plastic protectors)--Easier to install than plastic screen protectors--The screen protector does come with "home screen stickers" (in white and black--they may or may not actually match the actual color of your phone) to raise the home button (since this screen protector is thicker than many). I left mine off to prevent the button from being pressed while in my pocket.The cons:--Right off the bat, the #2 tab (that covers the side of the protector that touches the screen) came off without the plastic film it was supposed to take with it, leaving me with the difficult task of peeling that protective film off of the now naked adhesive side of the screen protector (it's possible that the extra fiddling around to get the protective film off attracted dust particles to the adhesive).--As at least one other user stated, the flimsy paperboard squeegee is of little help and bends with even moderate pressure. For a screen protector that costs half as much as one of the leading brands of phone cases, I don't think a squeegee made of hard plastic is too much to ask for.--The cleaning cloth is not really even big enough to be used with the squeegee, and it slips off of the flimsy paperboard squeegee far too easily, leaving the installer again thinking they do not have the correct tools for the job.--Lastly, the Youtube video instructions are based on the package containing two suction cups--it appears to be based on an install for an iPhone. The package for the Samsung Galaxy S4 contains only one suction cup, leaving the installer wondering if they should place it in the center or offset it a bit. So while it's helpful to have a Youtube video available for reference, it should be correct for the actual product being installed (or at least for the correct number and placement of suction cups).What I'd change if I could:--Instruct the installer/user to install the screen protector in a very steamy environment (so the water molecules can attach to dust particles and drag them down to the floor prior to installation). Include this information in the product instructions that come with the screen protector AND in the Youtube video. By explaining WHY a steamy environment is best, the user at least has the information up front. The user can then make an informed choice as to their installation environment. It would also improve the user experience when they subsequently complete a flawless installation, and they would remember Tech Armor for their next screen protector purchase.--Direct the user to a Youtube installation video that applies to their particular purchase (or something close to it). If their purchase includes only one suction cup, that's what the install should be based on.--Include quality installation tools or don't bother. I'm not a surgeon. If the numbered "Step 2" tab comes off of the protective film leaving me with no way to remove the protective film from the adhesive side of the glass, that doesn't bode well for a great installation experience. A flimsy paperboard squeegee doesn't get the job done when you're told in the instructions to apply pressure to remove air bubbles. And the microscopic cleaning cloth does a poor job covering and staying on that squeegee. For the price of this screen protector, the user wants to have complete confidence that the install with be flawless. Go that extra mile and include a hard plastic squeegee and double the size of the cleaning cloth. At least one of your lower-priced competitors does.--Don't harass your buyers to write reviews. I've received at least 2 emails asking for me to review the product less than a month after purchase. I purposely waited to write a review to ensure that the product was durable and to see if the bubbles would dissipate on their own. Alas, they did not.Overall, this is a great concept and while I believe the quality of the screen protector is pretty high, the poor quality "tools" provided in the package make the installation process less than stellar. I do in fact feel safer with this screen protector than with none (my reason for purchasing this was not so much to protect from scratches, but to protect against shattering). A 2-year contract is a long time to wait if you shatter your screen in month 2 of 24. It's also a long time to have to stare at 3 prominent dust bubbles that could have been avoided by including better installation instructions and tools. With an explanation of why it's best to install in a steamy environment, a protective film that doesn't require surgery to remove from the screen protector AND including a durable squeegee and bigger cleaning cloth, this could have been a 5-star product. Failing that, it's not quite ready for prime-time.",415,0 +416,"Bionic case + +This case is awesome. Anyone who recently picked up the bionic should get this without a question. It is not flimsy like the silicone cases but not extremely hard like the cases you'd get from corporate vzw stores.

Note, this may be just a limited poduction issue (...unless Verizon has a tweaked vesion of the phone).Side issue, case rubber is a little hard which makes it a bit tough to press the power and volume buttons, but hope that it will soften with usage.Stand works well though a little stiff to click into place ...but this is a good thing in that it won't easily / accidentally retract.Overall very happy with purchase given price.",419,0 +420,"High quality case for a low price. + +Slide the phone into a silicon sleeve then snap a two piece plastic shell around it.

Despite different boxes, they act EXACTLY the same.Tried it since none of the screen protectors had good reviews really & this one had the most stars. Fits the screen layout fine BUT after applying, (as described by video on their youtube site), there were dark streaks left behind after pushing all the spray/application mixture out with the included tool. They indicated that when dry, this and any small bubbles would dissipate. The bubbles, yes, the streaks? no. I could have dealt with that. They weren't THAT noticeable. Then we found that anything that got on it (if you had a dribble on your finger of something, esp sweat) leaves a mark behind on the surface similar to the streaks on the underside from application. If you wiped it off the SEC it got on, it's ok. If it dries? Forget it. Permanent mark on the screen. Ok, now I'm really annoyed. Add to that (I've had it for about 2-3wks now) the surface goes from pretty smooth-ish at first, to getting this weird gummy feeling, not helpful using a smartphone with swipe. And finally, it has already gotten a couple little tiny crumb/flecks that have worked their way under the screen at the edges. Seriously? It's only been 3 WEEKS?Sorry, I don't enjoy writing bad reviews, but this one warranted it. Totally not impressed. I'm not even hard on my phones, like some.

That's an important fact I want to share with customers, any 3rd party accessory that says ""Made for iPhone"" or IPad or iPod are verified products that Apple has authorized and will sell in their retail stores and online.

Very displeased.",434,1 +435,"iZen for the Road Warrior + +Overall I would rate the iZen a 4 out of 5 stars.This product is for a highly specialized group of individuals. Typically high travelers. The functionality of the battery charger itself is that it works as it was designed, to charge not only your ipad that is sitting within the battery folio case, but also other products. I have tested the charging capabilities of 2 different types of blackberries, 2 different iphones (iphone 5 and 3gs), a PS Vita and a few micro USB charging headsets and headphones I have. The folio/ipad case that the batter slips into is functional, although not that eye popping to look at. Protection of the ipad is there, granted if dropped with the extra weight of the battery I question if the ipad would survive. I used this product for several weeks, while traveling and while not traveling.There are two items that do not suit my needs and one of them in my opinion may be redesigned within the product.1. All the proprietary connectors. The iZen uses a 2.5mm headphone to USB adapter, then you can connect your USB cabling for your apple product. Non-apple products need another USB extension adapter on the original, then you can connect your USB cabling. The charging cable is also proprietary USB to 2.5mm. So that is 3 different connectors, one for charging, one to connect USB cable for apple products and one for non-apple USB products. For me this reduces the usefulness of the iZen. In addition to all my own cabling, being forced into my proprietary cabling and connectors makes for more room for me to lose pieces. (This is what could be redesigned within the product, in my opinion.2. The battery within the case makes your ipad very heavy.Personally I would rather have the specific case I want for the ipad and a separate battery charger that can handle the various amps and doesn't have several adapters to work/carry along. With all of that being said, the iZen does function as a case and charger for your ipad and charges other devices. The battery itself is VERY long lasting and can charge multiple devices multiple times. The battery indicator light gives you an idea of how low your charge is getting on the battery which is useful to know when you may want to consider juicing up the battery again. 4 stars given the extra weight wrapped into the case and I would prefer the convenience of reducing the adapters proprietary or not.",435,0 +436,"Insufficiently durable--threads hanging, interior splitting + +I was first impressed by the good looks of this case, and the style really suits the way I use it.

It is a very nice, excellent quality, leather case. It looks like a much higher end, expensive, item. It does come from overseas for North American purchasers, but the seller shipped as soon as I bought it. It was a little stiff at first, but loosened up nicely after a few days.

Only a bit of dust but no scuffs or scratches.The feel of it is that of a high quality product. Its grip is amazing and the ease of use when putting it in or taking it out of the holster.Even when fully enclosed on both parts the phone maintains its slim profile. At first sight out of the box my wife said it would be my daily driver (I ordered several cases to try out the one I liked best.) and any time I show my phone to friends or coworkers they love the case more than the phone! :)Having said all that I believe we all have different tastes and needs so this might not be for you.

The rubberized finish started peeling off within the first two days of using the case.The greatest insult of all was when upon dropping the phone within the case from a height of three feet, the front of the case snapped off, and the small plastic clips that keep it secure broke, making the case completely unusable.I'm glad I had the case to protect the phone from that one drop, but I'm not in the mood to buy a new case each and every time I drop by phone.Quite the bummer.",447,0 +448,"Skinomi Screen Protectors Have NEVER Let Me Down: Easy to Put On, Great Value + +Skinomi products are awesome!

The iDream tip came off with a little effort.The tips themselves, however, differ greatly. The iDream tips are significantly longer and ""grabbier"". I can hear distinct squeaking of the iDream's tip across my tablet's screen and feel a almost reluctant, skipping resistance while scrolling, whereas the amPen has a shallower tip yet smoother (and noiseless) resistance.In the overall scheme of things, yes, the amPen Hybrid Stylus has a superior tip with every other aspect of the two being the same.... except I paid pretty much the same for one amPen as these 6 iDream.

This thing is actually better than you'd think. I'm sure if you dropped your phone from a crazy height it wouldn't do much for it, but it's fairly sturdy and will keep it from getting scratched and would probably protect your phone from a waist high fall. Fits really well on a Straight Talk Optimus Q phone, even though it doesn't say much about it being made for it. I'd get it if your just looking for scratch and small height protection.

I don't really care about music, ringtones, videos, cameras, etc..First off, the physical layout befuddles me. I cannot stand having the 'voice recognition' and camera buttons where I am expecting the call and end buttons. I constantly press the volume up/down buttons on the side during use--I had my phone completely silent for the first week of ownership. The numeric buttons in general do not have a good feel, they feel sluggish and unreliable.The software gets even worse. You know those three short cut keys on the top half of the flip phone? Well, those are useless because you can only assign 9 pre-determined options to. You get things like pill reminder, alarm, tip calculator, and junk. You cannot set it to something like inbox or recent calls. Even worse is that once you press a shortcut button you need to confirm that is what you wanted to do.I'm used to predictive text on my Nokia. I press five keys and it tries to guess a five letter word. If it doesn't know it I can have the phone learn the word. On the Pantech Breeze if I press five keys it will try to guess four and six letter words before it even shows my legit five letter word. I don't know how to make it learn new words. It doesn't have the word 'scum' in it's dictionary.This phone attempts to do some kind of multitasking. If you go to a function that is considered an 'application' the phone will keep it in the memory unless you press the right key combination to fully exit it. If you don't the application stays in memory and eventually you'll get messages about not being able to more than 3 applications at the same time. There is no way to manage what applications are running unless you try to open more than three. Anything that is considered an application is useless, because they're things like email, instant messaging, and some kind of application manager. And I'm not sure what the application manager is, but it's never opened for me, it just sits there and twiddles it's thumbs. maybe it's download a bunch of stuff from the network or maybe it really doesn't do anything. Either way you lose.All of the games are 'trials' and over complicated.With that said, I would be able to look past all the negatives, except I have a hard time understanding what people are saying on this phone. I tried to have a conversation with my wife that consisted of me saying 'what' and 'excuse me' at least once in response to everything she said. On top of that I have been told that I am more difficult to understand on this phone. And for me this is the deal breaker.

I purchased both phones because I really like using an Android phone with a real keyboard. That being said, there is no other benefit to this phone.I assumed this one would be less buggy, slow, and crash-prone than the old phone, since it's newer and from a more prominent company. WRONG. The thing is slow as MOLASSES (even after disabling the massively wasteful Lookout scam software) due to all its "3D" animations.This is basically the Gateway of smartphones - loaded with bloatware and so-so build quality.Next up is Google Voice. I know that's a Google app, but it crashes MORE OFTEN THAN NOT when loading.Then you have the calendar. The calendar on my G2 was simple and ACTUALLY FUNCTIONED. This one disobeys you most of the time and is difficult to use (note: I'm not some curmudgeonly old guy who is new to technology; I'm a computer technician). It keeps suggesting things at random and just overall an OVERWHELMING EXPERIENCE when all I wanted was a phone with a keyboard that let me put in my business appointments.How about *gasp* a phonecall? Once a month, it'll crash while trying to answer a phonecall, requiring a reboot.Heaven forbid you want to download your pictures off the phone! Then you have the Samsung Kies malware. Instead of showing up on your computer like a thumbdrive like every other phone in the universe, this one requires (and automatically injects) Kies malware into your computer. Can't leave well enough alone, Samsung. (For Mint PC users, this implies using the gMTP software that works every other time.)Battery life is a little over a day (heaven forbid you enable DATA services, though, and you're down to a few hours, after which you're greeted with a constant popup attack reminding you to plug in your phone in case you're too stupid to know what the battery meter is for).I was inspired to write this review this morning when I found my phone dead on my desk. Once a week now, it doesn't FEEL like charging while plugged in.I'm going to throw it away now and buy a rotary phone instead. At least those don't crash while answering. They just make a pleasant "ding"!",477,0 +478,"Nokia E7 Review: Great com device + +I received this e7 as a gift. It runs Symbian^3 Anna, Software Version 022.014.02.01, released 2011-07-05. Other features: Nokia Web browser 7.3 / Flash 4.0 / Java 2.2.I have had Nokia smart phones before, the last was an n95; thus, I've been familiar with Symbian s60 devices.My n95, which I'll benchmark the e7 against, had great:essential phone functionsfocusing camera with flash (which took unparalleled pictures)speaker qualityoffice functionalityDESIGN:The e7 is finely made, very Nokia: stylish, tight lines, understated, elegant, aristocratic. Hinge mechanism is higher quality than similar mechanisms on other phones I've tried. It is slightly larger than the iPhone 4G and slightly heavier, but it fits nicely in my pocket and is not much more cumbersome than my n95 or my SE Equinox. The touchscreen makes a little buzz when you touch it; some phones don't do this so I find it useful.TOUCHSCREEN:This is my first touchscreen phone. It took some getting used to but after a couple days no biggie, in landscape. Typing on touchscreen is surprisingly accurate in landscape. Comparison: I make more errors on iOS and Android (without Swype, though less with) than this phone; don't ask my why. Portrait typing - no dale. Swype is available, but actually I don't like it much. I still make some errors though. Screen quality itself is absolutely beautiful; though my coworker's current 5g iPod touch has better resolution.Other phones & media players have better screen resolution: iPod touch, various Samsung & HTCs as well.KEYPAD:My first QWERTY phone. Keypad is quality though, has control, shift, function keys, and arrows. Complete with alternate shift keyboard (yellow characters, key on bottom left) though positioning makes it a tad difficult to actuate the 3rd character on keys in the bottom left of the keypad. But you can cycle through a key's alternate letters by pressing the key repeatedly. I prefer standard dialpads with t9 (or iTap on Motorolas), but this one is high quality too. I like.CAMERA:The 8MP camera is quite nice. Photos and light are not as rich or deep on this camera as on the n95 which had a focusing camera. As standard for Nokia, the camera app is great. Camera goodies such as Picture and Video editor software integrate nicely into the camera app itself. So sad that the phone doesn't have Carl Zeiss on board as my n95 made lust worthy 5mp photos my friends swore couldn't come from a phone. I understand lack of CZ focusing mechanics keeps size down (what about that awesome n8 camera though ...... arg). But the app itself I like better than the Android or iOS camera apps.MUSIC:Music player is fine and mostly unchanged from the s60 v5 version. The app ""Podcasting"" is missing for some reason. Now to handle podcasts via an application, it must be through paid apps which are less capable than the previous Nokia Podcasting app. None are rated highly, and reportedly contain bugs. I download podcasts via RSS feeds in Nokia Web or Opera which suffices for now. Comparison: the iOS music player is much better since it all evolved from an iPod eg, podcasting & smart playlists (maybe I can do this with the e7 but its still a little new to me). Also, no stereo speakers like n95, miss that.But, no stereo speakers. So in this way it doesn't match the n95.VOLUME ROCKER:I didn't know a volume rocker could be made which was stylish & easy to use. I like it!OS:Anna makes vast improvements on menu and option access IMHO (compared with the n95). Contextual menus are more predictably formatted, which is a big stride (similar to the way File and Edit menus tend to be across apps and OS's). Cut/paste nearly ubiquitously throughout the the OS. Also, no issues needing to reboot daily as others mention, or any of the other problems. I guess Anna fixes all that.Menus are still somewhat deep, more like a computer than other smartphones or PMP devices. Navigating the menus can get a little tiresome. But this is also a plus since I like hierarchically organizing my junk.I hear comparisons to iOS and honestly I don't know what the big deal is with iOS. iOS appears a bit snappier sometimes with screen rendering. Also, Netflix works on iOS which is a plus. BUT, basic user choices with how applications work, file system, visual display/theming, etc have all been in Symbian since the beginning as I recall, which iOS doesn't have. Other comparisons: WebOS is more creatively, functionally, and aesthetically designed than all other mobile OS's so no comparison there (too bad Nokia didn't partner with HP instead of MS since I think WebOS is the best smart phone OS). Android devices seem to have even more options, but often lag, and also lack in the visual experience of the OS. So far I have not experienced lags or issues reported by other users. So, for me, Symbian is great.** BOOM **HDMI outSmoking hot. Seriously I watched a digital movie on my 42in 1080p by mounting it from USB flash drive via the phone.** BOOM **USB on the goplugging in a flash drive automatically opens the drive and there's an app in the menu that lets you either backup the phone or exchange/replace data. Haven't tried it yet though.** BOOM **OVI Maps.This is one of the best features of the phone. It's clearly as good as a TomTom or Garmin, better than Gmaps, very fast, loads of options. My n95 sadly was one of those with a semi-borked GPS chip so I cannot compare this feature. Also, you can dl maps and navigate with the data connection turned off. Full GPS apparently. All free. I don't know if that helps justify a purchase but it seems unusual for a cell to have.INCLUDED SOFTWARE:1. QuickOffice. I'm not sure if this is standard, but it comes on mine. Nice.2. Mail for Exchange. Gmail isn't fully integrated (cannot star or make important, etc) but it is very fast via MfE. MfE is customizable. Haven't tried the Gmail app itself though. It would be nice if MfE or Google would integrate the GoogleDocs and GoogleVoice features into MfE as I'm a heavy user of both (at least on my laptop).3. Nokia Web browser is much improved from the n95 (s60). Still not as good as the Android browser or Opera; but still much improved. It is slightly slow on starting occasionally.4. Photo Editor & Video Editor - love them. Very feature rich.OTHER SOFTWARE I SUGGEST:Nokia - Internet Radio / Sports Tracker / Panorama (cool app to stitch together photos into one giant photo))Non-Nokia - Fring / Trapster / Opera / Upcode / WordPressISSUES:1. On startup, Ovi thinks I don't have an account. Seems like it should recognize I'm already a member. What's up with that? (fixed: just sign in and check the remember me box)2. Battery life is generally good for me; I don't have issues others on here have had. I did find situations which destroy the battery though:Wi-fi (especially if driving around - either turn it off or no juice)Maps (get a car charger for sure, and a dash mount because this thing is equivalent to GPS, works off network too if you've dl'd a map)Fring (pummels battery if not connected to strong wi-fi) though imho Fring rocks.3. Sending 8mp pics as MMS via Tmo? Cough. 15 min later ..... Tmo does NOT play with large pics for some reason. Had enormous problems with the n95 & Sony Ericsson Equinox too. This phone is no different. Thankfully if you want to send a pic you can choose email from the send menu (good integration) and when I send via Gmail it takes like 2 seconds. Tmo needs to figure this one out since I know it's not the phone's problem.WISHES:1. In comparison to my old (and awesome) n95:a) speakers are not as good as n95 (which was stereo)b) I miss the ""Gallery"" which was kind of like a rotating Coverflow of images and video (seriously, I think Nokia came up with it before other companies)c) focusing camera (n95 had a phenomenal camera, tad slow compared to other cell cameras, but awesome)d) music management, the old Podcasting application is gone and sort functions (date, size, etc) aren't as good as n95 for some reason2. More font sizes. Of the three, small too small, medium to large.3. Improved contextual menus: How about adding a menu item to the option menu with a row of common icons just below the ""Show open applications"" menu item (the top one in option/contextual menus? Suggested symbols: ""Exit to home screen and close application,"" ""Exit to containing folder,"" ""Close application,"" ""New,"" ""Settings."" Stick all these icons on one row so I don't have to scroll up and down trying to find Exit. Everyone understands these icons, in just about every format or every OS they're ever presented in.

No Netflix / Amazon video. It will play movie formats, just not streaming from Amazon or Netflix.This is one of the best gifts I've gotten in a long time. And certainly the best cell phone. I'd recommend it. Don't let my list of ""issues"" dissuade you; you haven't seen my extremely nitpicky Android, iOS, Windows, or Mac issues lists. Frankly, I love the phone. I don't feel trapped by a locked-clone ecosystem, I get a phone that respects me (gives me more control than iOS and actually feels more like a computer which I like), and is ready for my particular productivity needs, integrates with online services well and comes with nice goodies like the smoking hot HDMI out, great camera app, awesome Maps. Btw, no, I don't work for Nokia or the cellphone industry.I'll update in the future once I've got some miles on the phone.Month 3:I love it more now. Maps, QuickOffice, Fring, good notification services, frequently called number scrolling widget (love this bugger). Maps comment earlier about pummeling battery...only if network GPS is used, dl'ing local map to phone doesn't squash the battery. Two office mates want one now hehe.More apps I recommend: Nokia Situations, Nokia Drop (love them both), Bubue ""Books"" (not from Ovi/Nokia store, but from Maemo apps page, so I'm guessing its a QT app).

So I am not very happy I was getting it for my wife.",482,1 +483,"Great except for one slightly annoying drawback + +This case was pretty much exactly what I was looking for, for my Nexus 7 (2013) tablet-- I've always used TPU cases, they have saved my devices on more than one occasion and I guess I just like the feel of them and the relative lack-of-bulk.Early on I decided I didn't need/want a case with a fold-over cover, but I did want the functionality of being able to prop up the tablet without a separate stand-- so the kickstand feature on this case was what sealed the deal for me...However, the kickstand is also the source of the annoying drawback: When the stand is not ""deployed"" and is flat against the back of the tablet (like in the image above), it snaps in, which is of course a perfectly sensible feature. However, the problem is that they were a bit overzealous in making sure it snapped in securely, and so it takes a bit of force to open it up again. Because there is no release mechanism other than just prying it open, unless you have really small finger-tips or long-ish fingernails, you will have trouble opening the kickstand.I happen to keep my fingernails quite short (yeah I bite them, I know I know bad habit), and it is just too securely-fastened for me to pry it open easily/at-will. I have to struggle with it most times, and a couple of times I was actually not even able to un-snap the kickstand at all no matter what I tried, and so I had to use a key that happened to be nearby as an improvised lever.The kickstand issue shouldn't be a problem for probably most women or anyone with average-length fingernails (or anyone with readily-available tiny lever-like objects all around their home/workplace/car: for example, pens or paperclips), so that's why it still gets 4 stars, but just be aware this could be an issue for you if you buy this case. (I've also figured out how to apply downward pressure in such a way that it will ""pop"" it out rather than pry it out-- seems to work most times, and I'm getting better at it as time goes on).Also, I agree with the other reviewer that the kickstand brace does seem flimsy, but in using it regularly I haven't had it break or show signs of wear or anything (and theoretically I think the kickstand would probably still function without it, you'd just lose the ability to ""lock"" it into the ""all-the-way-open"" position, which the brace enables you to do). So it may be that it is just supposed to be flexible to make the kickstand easier to deal with, and the side-effect is that it seems flimsy.Just in general, the hybrid hard/soft design works very nicely. It's just the right balance of hard and soft, and it feels plenty sturdy and adds a bit of heft but not too much, just about right. The stand is very stable in both landscape and portrait, with nice comfortable angles (not too vertical, not too horizontal).",483,0 +484,"Works even for a Samsung Note 2! + +We're always going somewhere. Whether it's a quick trip to the store for some regular shopping, going out to eat or actually heading out of town for a family day out. Either way we're on the road a fair amount of time and generally I put my cell phone in the cup holder. I'm the type who can't use the phone while driving, nor do I feel comfortable using the phone while driving. My husband on the other hand I'm always yelling at him to put the phone down while we're in the car - he makes me nervous. Well I found a product that I am in love with for my car rides: a Universal Cell Phone Car Mount.I received a universal car mount to try out for myself. I have a Samsung Note 2 as my phone, which as many of you know is a pretty darn big phone. I love the phone, but it's definitely not convenient for one hand use. It works best to use for apps, online surfing, texting, etc; but as a phone it's huge. Well I'm happy to say that this car mount truly is universal because it does fit my phone! There's no slipping and sliding. The mount grips my phone tightly to keep it in place and actually sticks and holds up to the windshield in my car. I didn't try my dashboard since I'm not a huge fan of things going on my dashboard, but I mounted my phone up as if it were a GPS. I can see who's calling/texting, get navigation, etc without having my phone in hand. The mount is super easy to use and no instructions were necessary. It's also pretty decent quality.Needless to say I'm quite happy with my universal car mount and definitely recommend them for safer driving practices!READ FULL REVIEW: [...]",484,0 +485,"this phone will never be available from this site + +I emailed Amazon to ask about the ETA of the V300; this is what they told me:Thank you for writing to Amazon.com.I am sorry for any misunderstanding regarding the availability of theMotorola V300 Phone on our web site.Unfortunately, the Motorola V300 Phone is out-of-stock and we do notexpect to receive any more from our supplier.

After 3 hours the battery died (all lights went off) and my iPad was only charged to about 50%. I was irritated but decided to give it one more chance. So today, I once again fully charged the battery and connected it to my iPad. The battery once again died after about 3 hours and it only charged my iPad to about 75%.

I was shocked that it came with two protectors and little stickers that were to remove any dust that might happen to land on the protectors during installation. These are really awesome and make installation really easy to prevent airbubbles.Installation itself was straightforward, and I was able to redo the installation several times because I kept misaligning the protector. You can't do this with other products like Zagg because they stretch and become useless. So that was a major plus in my book.With it installed and no airbubbles, I was shocked at how smooth the screen felt under my finger and with the Spen. It felt a ~little~ different, but not in a terrible way. And it looks beautiful, can't tell there is a protector on it!

It has a lot going for it as you see from the reviews.What follows this updated review is the original, I am now 10 days into this POS and 3 factory resets later, I can soundly conclude that this phone is garbage.Great ideas, built like a toy, and completely unreliable. I've had plenty of phones and never seen anything so aggravating before.BEWARE: If you are foolhardy enough to bother with this after research, make sure you don't save anything to the phone itself, only the SD card, as there is no file manager you will lose everything everytime you reset, and reset you will. Bye bye contacts, pictures (camera sucks btw), apps, all down the toilet.Buggy buggy buggy. Just Google ""Nokia 521 issues,"" then have a good laugh at my expense, then go get yourself a reliable phone. This ain't it.Just days ago I was more optimistic... This is my older review:But here is what is what I don't like:-No forward facing camera. You might want to think about how this will affect you. Forget Skype or any other video calling, no dice. In this day and age VERY limiting. Deal breaker item. I personally will never own another phone without this camera.-Windows. You might like it or not, I personally kinda do, but if you have gotten used to the app selections of android or iPhone, this will be like stepping back in time several years. There are enough apps for me, but check out the selection first.I really don't care for the disappearing tiles all the time, what's up with that?-The screen lock is absurd. Major deal breaker. Spent a day locked out, and every time you try a password it doubles the amount of time you have to wait to try again. How stupid is that. I ended up forced to do a factory reset and lost valuable pictures and data in the process. I will never buy another phone with that obnoxious feature. Epic fail.-No file manager, really? Weak. I shouldn't have to make 7 navigations and open 3 apps just to find a simple file.I will say though:-This phone is very fast, apps usually load quick.-Good cell reception and great WiFi reception.-The keyboards are fantastic, right on queue!-I LOVE SD expandable memory. MAJOR plus.-Best touch screen I have ever owned. And my last phone was the Samsung Infuse (priced at 6 TIMES this Nokia 521). Wow.-Battery life is through the roof. I watched 6 hours of video while traveling and she had lots more in her. Pretty amazing.-Strong audio and speakers. Again, best I have owned yet.Maybe the screen lock can be worked around.

Overall, this product is an EXCELLENT value for the price!",499,0 +500,"Simple but effective + +I bought this unit on a recommendation from Terry White, who has a technology blog relating to iPhones, etc. The unit is in two pieces. One piece hooks on to the louvers of the air conditioning vent while the second piece is the cradle for the iPhone. The challenge for buyers (which is difficult to know in advance) is whether the design is a great match for your particular vehicle.My expectation is that it is probably at least adequate for all vehicles and probably outstanding for many. My particular vehicle, a Lexus 330, is somewhere in between. The piece that attaches to the louvers is two side by side prongs with an adjustable ""leg"" opposite that helps stabilize the unit on the vent. Where it may get tricky for some is that, depending on the distance between the louvers, the prongs will either line up optimally or you may have to adjust the spacing between the prongs. The unit permits adjustment of the spacing but it doesn't appear to be a strong design feature. For vents with two layers of louvers set at a 90 degree angle (the case in the Lexus 330) you need to place the prongs in such a way as to clip on one set of louvers without running into the other set.The ball joint adjustment on the connection between the the prong piece and the cradle permits you to swivel the cradle in whatever direction you want once the prongs are seated on the vent. That is what makes it possible to be used with a wide variety of air vents. But there is no doubt that it's optimal use is with vents that have a single set of louvers.",500,0 +501,"Great tablet + +I just purchased it a few days ago but so far I'm happy with it with only a few complaints. I've found the screen and tablet size to be nearly perfect for my needs. The G Pad is just small and narrow enough for me to hold in one hand easily.The screen quality for the most part is very good. The black levels are not excellent so when watching movies with dark scenes it tends to lose a little detail. The whites are warm/yellow when compared to my Nexus 7. The display is also more on the dim side. The fullest brightness is what my Nexus 7 looks like at 50%. Other than that I've found it enjoyable to use for reading and gaming.I've found the speaker quality is slightly above average since it has stereo speakers but it loses points for the being rear firing.The performance seems to be somewhat mixed. I think LG uses too many animations and effects and it sometimes makes the performance suffer. This can be mitigated by using a third party launcher like Nova or Apex. Another issue is that it is still stuck on Android 4.2.2 so im holding out for the improved performance of Kitkat. Finally, I've discovered that the processor in this model differs from the Wi-fi only model. It uses the same Snapdragon 400 Processor @ 1.5 GHz as the 2013 Edition Nexus 7 versus the Snapdragon 600 in the Wi-fi G Pad. For games and apps you will see similar performance as a 2013 Nexus 7 but LG's interface tends to bog the Verizon Edition of the G Pad down in comparison.The battery life seems decent. My first full charge and complete discharge lasted about 11 hours with over 6 hours of screen on time and heavy mixed use. I expect that may improve a bit over the next few charges.Overall, it is a very good tablet with sleek and sturdy build quality. I would recommend this over the Nexus 7 only if you want a classier metal design and larger screen as those are literally the only benefits of this device over a Nexus. Obviously, the Nexus will always benefit from the latest Android versions versus this carrier edition tablet that is already 2 releases behind at this point.Finally, I feel I should note the first unit I purchased and a rather sizeable piece of debris or dust right near the center of the screen but thankfully Amazons excellent customer service exchanged it for me and my new tablet is flawless so far.",501,0 +502,"bad + +this case is cute and fits good. but if you keep in in your pockets and it falls out, the case snaps off and the little plastic things that keep it on, break off. you can try to put it on again but it doesn't stay on. to much money for a case that only lasts a couple of weeks. i would nooootttt recommend it to anyone who wants a good strong case.",502,0 +503,"Allows you to charge and use at the same time! + +With the original cord that came with the tablet, I noticed, I could not charge and use at the same time.

Anyway, you can download a buggy third-party app that will let you send them but SPRINT--another bunch of idiots--has made it impossible for the user to determine who any of the incoming SMS messages are from if they are outside the PCS network! Thus, you can send text messages and receive text messages, but you cannot reply! If some one sends you a text that says, ""What are you doing tonight?"" and you are not expecting the message, you have to guess who sent it in order to send a message in response. It's absolutely the most asinine logic I have ever encountered in a piece of digital equipment. Otherwise, I like the design and the connectivity.

Flimsy belt clip. + +First thing I want to say is how much I absolutely loathe phone cases or holsters of any form. Half the reason I choose the iPhone 4 was because I love the sleek appearance and generous use of glass. Unfortunately however I have accepted a new job that puts me out in the field and subjects my phone to some extreme conditions that it would be unlikely to survive uncovered.Originally I intended to use the Survivor only while at work, and only on days when I'd be in the field. This is why I chose the Survivor instead of the Otterbox - the ease with which the case goes on and off. Much to my surprise though I haven't removed the phone from the case since the minute it arrived from UPS. Despite the added bulk I'm finding I really dig the extra ""gripability"" this case provides - the phone now fits so much more comfortably in my hands and the rubber it's made from has just the right amount of non-slip action to it. When I hold the phone it feels like a brick I could smash something with, rather than the fragile slab of glass I'd grown used to. The screen protector does not interfere with the touchscreen operation, and all buttons and ports remain usable and functional.It's not all roses and rainbows though..There definitely are some downsides to this case. The first and most glaring is the joke of a belt clip Griffin engineers must still be laughing about. It's the equivalent of building a high security bank vault fitted with a screen door. It's made of cheap plastic, it barely grips the case, it falls off at the slightest bump, and you cannot easily snap the case back in to it without using two hands. Bottom line, it's completely unusable.Next up is the bezel around the screen. I appreciate the care Griffin took to protect the phone, but for those of us with larger digits you'll encounter some difficulty using the keyboard and in general performing any task that requires touching near the edge of the screen. This is particularly frustrating for me as I use a jailbroken device and have grown accustomed to Activator gestures such as ""slide-in from bottom"" that are now completely impossible to use.The flaps. The dock and headphone are not too bad once you get used to them, but it is a minor annoyance. The camera flap however is a big pain in the butt. In order to use the camera (or the LED as a flash light, as I am wont to do), you will need to pluck the flap open, and then also pin the flap down with one finger, all while attempting to hold the phone steady and touch the camera shutter button. This is about as difficult as it sounds and you can forget about those quick to pass Kodak moments being snapped.One last mention is the buttons. The home button is very easy to push, almost a bit too easy. The sleep button requires a bit of added effort - you will never accidentally push it. The volume buttons are largely unaffected. The vibrate switch is a little tricky, as you are presented with yet another flap and a tiny hole that none of my fingers can possibly fit in to. I find myself using a toothpick or other improvised implement to manipulate this switch with necessary. Fortunately this is rarely necessary in my occupation.All in all I would still recommend this case. The pros and cons are pretty evenly balanced - you really can't place a value on protecting the fragile glass features of this phone in the harsh and dusty environment I am prone to to expose it to.***EDIT on October 6, 2011***Much to NOBODY's surprise, the belt clip broke today after barely six weeks of use. I called Griffin's warranty support department, who was very friendly and helpful. The good news is they have redesigned the belt clip to strengthen it due to an overwhelming amount of warranty claims. The bad news is they are currently back ordered and will take several weeks to ship.The case itself is holding up great. There's a few chips on the bezel that surround the screen, and the corners of the rubber part are beginning to wear smooth. I have dropped the phone at least twice now from 6-8' off the ground with no damage. So far the fine carbon dust that I bring home from work in my hair, clothes, lunch box, etc has not penetrated the case.

I will purchase Amzer for my Epic Touch and never order this one again for any of my future phones or tablets.",515,1 +516,"Samsung S3300 review + +Got this phone to upgrade a 2 year old Sony Erickson 810 model from ATT. Didn't want to shell out the dollars for a plan increase (texting, internet etc) with ATT free phones beyond the basic models. Device worked easily once the ATT sim card was plugged in and the battery charged. Touchscreen is responsive though not comparable to iphone quality. Product comes with a stylus which we rarely use. Supposed to be for texting Chinese characters. We have installed a 4GB micro-SD card to add music files. Had to install the Samsung Kies application from their website to move music files. Note: To get this app - go to Samsung web page and pick a different geography than US for this to show up since the Champ is not directly sold here.The cellphone has quite a few widgets which can be enabled and customized. Also lets the user change the look and feel of the multiple user screens you can access by swiping across the LCD. Music playback is quite good and the music player remains active even when you get out of that widget. The speakers are good enough to listen to the music w/o headphones. The phone also has a built in radio tuner that works quite well.The biggest problem we have with the phone is actually a user interface issue. When the touchscreen is used to dial a number, once the call gets connected the phone screen automatically locks up. You have to use the hold key for several seconds to unlock it at that point. This is a big headache if you need to access calling feature like speakerphone or the keypad. There is no options in the setting to disable this. We were almost tempted to return the phone due to this issue but held on to avoid the hassles. Otherwise a great phone at a great price.",516,0 +517,"Inexpensive, portable power, in a pinch + +Compact, inexpensive, take with you (throw it in your carry-on) kind of power.I bought this for the numerous times I'm out and about, not near a charger.Turns out, this works pretty well!

It's my first Samsung phone and I am thrilled with it! You can Google the S8500 and find numerous detailed reviews - so I just want to mention some highlights.Pros: Stunning display - easily much nicer than the display on my *Phone 3GS. Thin and reasonably light but it has a very solid build - the back cover is a solid piece of metal - I assume aluminum. It has great ergonomics for the phone function - easy to dial, use contacts and the speaker sounds great. I was concerned about Samsung's Bada OS - but it is very smooth - easily as smooth as on the 3GS. The battery is replaceable and it seems to have a little longer battery life than the 3GS. The display has some sort of coating which resists fingerprints - I have had no problems with fingerprints on mine. I also really like the fact that you can have up to six home screens. And - it has a neat little function that I hadn't even heard of: you can configure a fake phone call, complete with a recorded voice and a contact photo. Not a concern for me - but if you ever need to get out of a meeting or break away from that boring conversation - the S8500 is the phone for you!Cons: Forget about Hotmail and Exchange/Outlook e-mail - at least with the current version of Bada - I spent hours trying to get each to work and gave up. Mine came with a measly 1-Gb micro-SD card. I saved the biggest con for last: the Samsung app store is a joke - there is very little to buy/download. And, just my opinion, Samsung may not devote much in the line of resources to the Bada app store since some of their newer phones are being sold with Android.Overall - despite a couple of cons - the S8500 Wave is a great phone with a stunning display. It isn't a phone to play dozens of different games on - but it is a great alternative for everything else: calling, You Tube, music, videos, Facebook and most e-mail accounts.*** Edited to add on 29 JUL 2010 ***Still a very good phone but the Samsung ""Kies"" software delivered with phone is awful. I am using Windows 7 and I could not edit contacts, buy applications, add music or photos let alone update the phone firmware. All Kies did, besides cluttering my hard drive, was tell me the model number of the phone. Nokia's Windows software is vastly superior. Rating has been reduced to four stars as a result of Samsung's software disaster.*** Edited to add on 15 NOV 2010 ***I continue to be very pleased with my Wave S8500 - and I have raised my review back to five stars. Honestly, being unable to connect to my Outlook via an IMAP connection was just a ""doh"" on my part. The Wave connects just fine - and it has the very best display of all my phones.

I had a hard time figuring out if it was hard or soft before I bought based on the descriptions in the reviews (sometimes the reality is different from what the seller's description is.) It is very flexible so don't expect it to remotely be plastic. I can't be sure, but my sense is the more flexible cases absorb the shock of a fall better than the hard plastic.Also, it's not that kind of rubber that dirt tends to stick to...it's smooth and glossy. So smooth, you might think it's a hard case. And the right thickness for protection.It also is a smoke color, but it's translucent so it takes on the color of your phone which is why one reviewer said you can't really see the argyle. You can see it fine but don't expect that gray coloring that is in the picture. Has a classy look to it, imo.I also wasn't sure if it was 2 pcs (back and cover, esp if it was a hard case)...but it's just the back.Additionally, not sure why folks are saying the cutouts don't line up. They line up perfectly and have more than enough wiggle room to accommodate the charger, etc. It's true that the volume and power buttons are covered but are easy to press...again I don't understand why anyone would find that to be an issue. Maybe other reviewers were using a different phone or the manufacturer fixed the previous issues? Mine fits 100% perfectly. ""Like a glove.""I haven't dropped my phone so can't attest to the protective power but I anticipate it will provide reasonable protection based on the feel of it.Can't really beat the price.

The first one was functional and reliable, and so I didn't hesitate (much) to try this smartphone. I liked the features, and I got it during Amazon's 1c sale, so you can't beat the price (unless you can get it free). I've had it for a week.I was upgrading from the Motorola Droid (circa 2009), which I loved. This time I opted for a phone without a physical keyboard because I'd been using Swype, which comes pre-installed on the Breakout. Because I was familiar with Android v2, the Breakout seems updated yet familiar. Some of the keys (back, home, menu) are in a different order on the Breakout, which takes some getting used to. There are seven ""pages"" where you can put shortcuts or widgets vs. five on the Droid. That makes organization a little more important, otherwise I'll be swiping the screen to hunt for the shortcut I want.The pros include:lightweightgreat OSSwype (don't have to install the Beta)mini USB input jack has a coverpower/wake button is conveniently located on the sidecamera resolution is decentvoice quality is goodhas voice control function that actually recognizes names in my contacts listCons include:Speakerphone isn't very loud or clearBattery life is disappointing, even with screen brightness turned downUseless, unwanted apps (such as Lets Golf 2) can't be uninstalledUser guide is weakI installed Advanced Task Killer, and after killing all apps except ATK, the following apps are restarted automatically:Google searchWeatherGmailVZ NavigatorBlockbusterVoicemailEmailSlackerCity IDMy Verizon MobileMobile IMAlarm/clockSome of these apps are essential and I'd always want them to start up. But some aren't. I don't use Blockbuster and don't want it on my phone, but there it is, sucking down my battery life. Slacker is a personal radio, for which I don't even have an account. When you start up VZ Navigator, you see a warning:""This application requires data usage for download and use which will be billed to your account according to your plan, feature or bundle.""Even if I decline, the app runs whether I want it or not.City ID displays the city & state of an incoming call. Nice if you get a lot of calls from unknown callers, but I only give my cell number to family and friends.The Breakout's not blowing me away with its awesomeness, but I'm happy with it despite these annoyances.Edited to add:4G range is wider than expected. The Verizon coverage map says that I'm 10+ miles outside the 4G zone, but when I'm at the dog park in the middle of town (trees around but no buildings), I get 4G. At home, only 3G as expected.11/4/11 update: When I said the battery life is disappointing, I wasn't kidding. I charge the phone overnight and unplug it around 8am. If I don't charge it during the day, I hit 10% battery by about 8pm. This is with some light texting and maybe a call or two. It has shut off on me before 9pm due to low battery. I have the screen timeout set to 15 seconds and tried setting the screen brightness to Auto or about 1/4, but that made little difference. :/12/26/11 update: I frequently get errors on the Pantech home page if I try to open an application too quickly after unlocking the phone. It's one of those errors that gives me the choice of waiting or force-closing the Home application. It's rather annoying. The phone is also sometimes very slow to respond to commands. I've discovered a trick to extending the battery life is to use a wallpaper other than the animated default image that comes with the phone, and turn animations off. It means not using some of the built-in features, which somewhat defeats the purpose of having a cool smartphone, but it's less frustrating than running out of juice at 6pm.Conclusion: I might go back to using my old Droid until I'm eligible for a new phone (almost 2 years!). I definitely WON'T be buying another Pantech. I'm lowering my review from 4 stars to 3.9/18/12 update: I'd lost the phone for several months and didn't miss it. When I found it again, I took it to Verizon to reactivate it and ask what they can do about the horrible battery life. The lady suggested I get a larger capacity (2300 mAh) battery (PN: VZW18995BATX) for $49. I figured that it was worth a try. So far, this battery is holding plenty of juice and hasn't gotten below 50% during a single day. It does make the phone thicker (it comes with its own back to accommodate its larger size), but it has eliminated my largest complaint about the phone. I'm not changing my star rating because it's an add-on, but if you've been frustrated with the battery life, it's worth considering.2/6/13 update: I went to the Verizon store to see if one of their sales people could help configure my phone to use less power and put more apps on the SIM card rather than the core memory. She tried everything I tried and gave up. The problem is that with only 1GB RAM, there's not much room for add-on apps, many of which do not provide the option of running from the card. I ended up closing my account & taking the hit on the early termination fee in order to get a decent phone. The frustrations were too high with this Pantech.I absolutely cannot recommend this phone for anyone who wants a *smart phone* to run add-on apps with. If you only want the basic functions and apps that come with the phone, you might not become as dissatisfied as I did. I could not find instructions for rooting it in order to remove the useless apps taking up all the storage space.",546,0 +547,"Disappointed + +First problem appeared within first month of using this the phone. I wasn't able to return it to the seller, because more then one month passed since I've bought it. Had to send the device to motorola.

Had to send it back to motorola again. This time they fixed it, and it was finally working.The phone was scratched, I could see where they used tools to disassemble the phone. I noticed that the device is making squeak noises when you press on it a little, it wasn't fixed/glued tight. I wen't to verizon to see if other devices of the same model have the same thing, but looks like this is what happening to the phone after motorola service.Now I've been using the phone for 3 months, and it started to misread the sim card.

I still have not managed to figure out (because have not been able to activate) whether these cards are for exclusive use with unlimited monthly plans or can be used with minute plans too.My activation package did not arrive with any of the required numbers to activate. It took a long time to figure this out given that H2O's online activation system is obscure at best and doesn't provide any information about the various numbers they require to activate or where to find them.I received an email informing me that activation had failed and requesting I call customer service. When I call I am compelled to go through the voice-recorded activation system all over again (no possibility of speaking with a customer service rep.) only for it to fail again, and to finally be ""connected to a customer service representative"". However, after that all I hear is silence - no music, no voice indicating I'm on hold - and after about 15 minutes of silence I generally give up. This has happened too many times - each more frustrating than the other - at this point. Unlike convenitonal voice-menus, there is no way to skip to customer service: even if you repeatedly get something wrong the automated voice will just continue to prompt you to try again indefinitely. This means that each time I call I have to go through the ""activation process"" again, entering the numbers I already know don't work, until I am informed that the activation failed and then connected to the static-space-limbo that exists between the automated system and an actual human being. And live chat only appears to be available between 12-8 EST.I've had these cards for more than a week and still have not been able to activate them.

It is so crisp, nice highs, good mids, and lows are decent. When it comes to these types of speakers, you're really not going to get AMAZING bass sound, so don't expect it. That being said, my colleagues are super surprised to see how small it is, yet how great of sound it projects.Highs and Mids are really on par with the Bose Soundlink, although a trained ear would hear the difference. Bass, again, is decent, but is only slightly better on the SoundLink. SoundLink is $300+ tooWhat is so great about this though is its portability. A buddy DJ of mine has the JBL Flip, and has already listed it for sale to get this one. The JBP was $100 (not to mention).One hidden feature that hasn't been mentioned, it technically can convert your car AUX port to Bluetooth because it has a ""Line Out"". So you plug the speakers ""Line Out"" to your AUX port in your car, and VOILA! You can play your iPhone iPod or Android in your car wirelessly. I personally like to use this feature with larger self-powered speakers (like JBL Eons). It let's you play your music on a cell phone from across the room connecting the ""Line Out"" to the input on your DJ Mixer, or Self-Powered speaker. This is GREAT at parties because you ALWAYS have control of changing the musicIf you are looking for an easy setup, this is for you. Simply take it out of the box, charge completely, turn it on, and search for it on your phone Bluetooth settings. Simple as that. Once you've connected to it once, your phone will remember and each time you turn it on, it will automatically connect.Pandora, MP3s, YouTubes, etc., pretty much anything you can play through Bluetooth, you can project.

This phone looks and functions like a value version of the iPhone. Whereas the iPhone has a solidity and style that belongs in a design museum, the Exhibit II 4G feels more like a beautiful everyday object, one that, when dropped, inspires irritation rather than panic. The two phones are actually very close in terms of general hardware features, notably the mini-tablet shape, size of the screen, image quality, bi-directional camera, and other smaller details. (It is very easy to see why Apple had filed a lawsuit against Samsung for imitation.) The biggest adjustment personally has been switching from the buttery smooth responsiveness of the iPhone touchscreen to the entirely functional, but uninspiring, Exhibit screen. Otherwise, I am extremely pleased with the range of apps, built-in Swype and voice texting, crystal clear Wi-Fi calling (useful for an occasionally spotty T-Mobile network). Ultimately the decision is whether a great iPhone is worth $60 a month more in subscription fees than a (very) good Exhibit.

And now we are seeing this technology being introduced in the cell market. Energizer's solution is called Qi (pronounced 'chee'). At present most solutions including Energizer's require a sleeve/cover be placed on the phone increasing thickness and obstruct the data port (if you wish to connect your phone to a computer) unless you pop off the sleeve. What is really desired is an integrated solution (e.g., Palm Pre) with the phone instead of requiring a cover. As far as I know no such integrated products are currently available for this device. When such phones have integrated Qi, then this charger should work fine with such devices.Energizer's Qi charger is easy to use and has helpful, visible indicator lights. It allows two inductive devices to be charged side by side as well as a third USB wired-charged phone. This is great for households that have more than one supported phone. The speed of charging is also close to wired charging, believe it or not. Nevertheless, the price is simply too high if you also consider that you have to buy a phone sleeve. For an inductive charge and sleeve, you are looking at a $90+ entry fee for this technology if you use it just for one phone (based on April 2011 Amazon prices). It's also sad that only three phones are currently supported: iPhone 4, iPhone 3G/3Gs, and Blackberry Curve 8900.Drop the price another $20 and have Qi integrated in the phone and this product review would get 4/5 stars.Finally, I want to mention the controversial subject of EMF in case some of you are unaware of the debate. There are some circles that believe that EMF pollution is already too high and also believe that cell phones are one of the largest emitters one is exposed to at home/work. I don't know the EMF measurements of inductive chargers or even if there are true safety issues with inductive chargers, but if this is a concern to you then you may not want to place this charger near your bed as you sleep.",574,1 +575,"no good + +The first thing was I oder blue and got red so say ok then it is too big for my phone I'm now looking at the otter cases",575,0 +576,"Will charge when not connected to computer! + +UPDATE Oct. 27, 2012: I purchased a second of these to take camping and have used it for charging multiple phones and a stand-alone phone battery charger for the past 10 months.

However, they mentioned that it worked with all iPhone 4 and 4s. This is not true. I have the white 4s. If you try using this case with the new iPhone 4s, when taking a flash photo, it will cause a white haze in your pictures. It's due to the flash being stronger than the iPhone 4 and the cut out hole for the rear camera being too small. The light bounces back and causes the haze. I tried it with a white iPhone 4 as well, and even though it wasn't as white as the 4s, it still created a haze. Be careful when buying this item if you have a white phone.

This would be a great gift!",579,0 +580,"Nice But Too Annoying + +I am actually shopping for a replacement for this phone, it's just too annoying. It is a nice looking phone, small enough to be practical and is capable of running lots of interesting apps and whatnot, but it has a few fatal flaws that spoil it:I only use my phone casually, a few texts and maybe a short call a day are all I really ask of it. Despite this, the battery only lasts me one day between charges. I have turned off all the bluetooth and wifi widgets and whatnot, but the in-built battery manager tells me that the main power drain is ""idle"". This phone was new, so it can't be the battery's fault. Very poor for a modern phone.Secondly, to save the battery, the phone locks itself far too often and is a hassle to unlock, requiring a button press and a scroll of the touchscreen which is sometimes a little twitchy. This is true when writing texts as the delete button is next to a tiny space button (and I know I hit the right one, the phone tries to predict what letter you want to hit rather than just going off where your finger actually touches the screen). Also, the phonebook is atrocious for doing simple tasks like viewing someones number, but great if I want to send them a message on facebook - Arrrgh!Finally and most importantly, THE PHONE CALLS PEOPLE WHILE IT'S IN MY POCKET. This has happened on more than one occasion and is totally unacceptable. The screen lock feature clearly doesn't work. This wastes credit and annoys me and my friends.

I lost nearly USD 100.00This device is waste of money.",582,0 +583,"Good, but could be a lot better. + +The phone is nice, but definitely not top of the line for Android. As far as prepaid goes, its one of the best out there. If you want better, you should be using a prepay plan from a company that lets you use its regular plan phones for its prepaid plans (i.e. AT&T; - you can use any of their phones, except iPhone, on the prepaid plan). The phone operates on Gingerbread, not the newest version of Android, but then Ice Cream sandwich was just released and will likely be pushed out to the phone eventually, just as Gingerbread was to the Prevail.The phone has front and back facing cameras - good for Skyping. Gingerbread is an awesome OS - as a former Blackberry user, switching to Android has been great in general, but what makes it great is the Android system, not the phone itself. I'm addicted to the Swype feature - though it took some practice, its made texting and typing MUCH easier. The phone is pretty sleek, nice looking. The screen is sensitive - I dropped mine a few weeks after purchase and cracked the screen (thank goodness for insurance). The touchscreen issue that others mention is real. It seems to have issues with sensing when one has actually lifted their finger off of the screen. This makes dragging things fairly difficult and makes it frustrating to play games requiring dragging. Its even more frustrating to try to move icons to the different home screens as they always ""drop"" before making it to their destination. The keyboard, while convenient, is extremely cheap looking, with huge buttons. I got this phone especially for the keyboard, but never use it. It just seems big and clumsy, and not half as easy as using Swype. I read the mentions of the ""weird"" space bar in other reviews and didn't quite understand until I got the phone - it seems like there is no support in the middle of the space bar, and one must push on the sides specifically to make it space. Also, enter and delete buttons are in weird spots and I constantly hit one when meaning to hit the other.Boost Mobile - I've been with them for about a year and a half now, and there are definite good and bad points. The best thing is the price - $55 unlimited monthly is a great deal, and hard to find even with contract plans. The Shrinkage plan is cool too - a reduction of $5 to your bill for every 6 on time payments - especially easy if you are on auto-pay. They are part of Sprint, and all of their Android and Blackberry phones run on the Sprint CDMA network - good but could be much much faster. Although the network is supposed to be 3G, I regularly have issues streaming music and videos on this phone (and any Boost smartphone for that matter) - lots of buffering. Since Sprint isn't the head of the pack in the phone industry, their coverage isn't as complete as AT&T; or Verizon. I get dropped calls occasionally but not nearly as much as my boyfriend, who is on MetroPCS. The customer service is my least favorite thing with Boost. Its virtually impossible to get through to somebody on their automated system, and doesn't even give an option to transfer until you've been through at least 4 menus, and even then only once it has difficulty figuring out what you are looking for based on your response. Things like activating insurance, which should be an option on the main menu, take navigating 3 or more menus for upwards of 10 minutes, to get to the correct person. They always make ""mistakes"" that take forever to fix and cost the customer - example: I started with Boost before Shrinkage. I switched my account to Shrinkage, and was told, both by text and email, that the change would take effect on my next billing date, the 15th of every month. Instead, I received a text message on the 13th of the month stating my billing date had been moved up to the 13th because of the plan change. It took 2 hours over 4 calls with customer service, to get my billing date switched back to the 15th, and was very inconvenient for me. To resolve the issue, they switched me from a monthly plan to a daily plan for two days and credited my account for the 2 days - they told me it would automatically switch back to monthly on the 15th, and everything would be fixed. It didn't and I ended up spending another hour on the phone to get it resolved. These are the kind of issues that would never happen with contract phones.Bottom line - if you have bad credit or just want to avoid a contract, and want an Android, this is your best option. Decent phone, decent network. Could be better, but then, the No Contract cell phone industry doesn't offer much no matter who you go with.",583,0 +584,"Not bad + +I've only had it on my car for 2 days, here's my most relevant, honest review thus far:It's popped off my dash at least 4 times already, however it may not be entirely the units fault, the dash gets wiped down at the car wash all the time and I'm sure there maybe be some chemicals (armor all type stuff) on it that may be the cause of the issue. On my last time attaching it to the dash I wet the suction cup and it seemed a lot better, I will thoroughly clean that area of the dash and try again. The holder comes with a variety of attachments to obviously fit different size phones/tables, my only (slight) complaint is the 'arms' are a tad long (this may be anal, but again giving my complete review) for my taste, wish they had a few shorter ones for a cleaner look, that may also make the inserting/removing a tad easier.I purchased this for my Note 3 (and I have a smaller fitted case on it/per reading reviews this fits well with the case(s) on) so I will say that the phone does indeed fit nicely and very firmly it will not fall out, this however is also my partial complaint with the unit, inserting and removing the phone are kind of a pain in the A** and quite frankly it is when removing or inserting the phone that the holder has popped off the dash; once the phone is in place all is fine.The really nice thing is that it does mount nicely (I can't stand those bulky windshield mounts) and it provides enough adjustments to where the phone can be nicely viewed from just about any angle, the rotary feature is awesome-I can see the wifey watching movies on it, on a road trip.So in summary, the Note 3 with case fits nice & securely, the holder attaches to dash (with some work involved if you have a dash such as mine (Infiniti QX56)) but do to being so secure the phone is a tad hard to insert and remove and holder will fall if suction isn't completely secured (clean dash thoroughly of any remaining chemicals/use water)Not sure if these reviews can be upgraded and/or edited, but I can give a more thorough review after I've used it a while (week or two) to see if the unit will remain in place once dash has been cleaned and if unit will start 'giving' a bit on insert/removing.",584,0 +585,"In factory sealed mint condition. + +An ideal buy for those not interested in a truckload of extra functions, but rather prefer to focus on the 3 primary necessities: calls, texts and internet access. Definitely recommend this particular seller. The phone came in the exact same condition as it was originally manufactured and packaged in. The best part was that, due to being an Amazon Student member (one-time only offer which entitles you to a 50% discount on the Amazon Prime membership - $39 for the year of free 2-day shipping instead of $78-9 default), I paid no sales tax OR S&H; (shipping and handling) fees. Could have gotten it from Wal-Mart a few miles down the road but why spend money on gasoline to pick it up (whether I bought it online and had it shipped to the store or not), pay sales tax if I bought it from the store's inventory AND/OR pay S&H; if I sent it to my home address - especially when I don't have immediate need for it? Waiting a couple of days was more than acceptable for the overall price discount.The phone is well designed for compact portability. In regards to its general specs: The phone keypad is spongy and durable, but small and tight-knit(typos will not be few and far between, regrettably for those with grown-up fingers); the speaker is fairly clear; the digital camera is well made but not professional level in definition; and the text message keypad - while having fairly small buttons - makes up for its lack in physical size with sufficient spacing between each key to avoid repeat typos due to an overcrowded/cluttered console. Odd how the two keypads simulate and oppose each other in design. Another point of note is that the menu items are pretty much individually ordered in a standard grid formation. Size-wise, anyone familiar with the Nokia 1661 (pre-paid colors were gray with red lining along the seams), which I am actually replacing with this one, would recognize this model as the technical big brother of sorts - in physical build, with added flexibility and size. An upside to the scale of it is the ease that one can manipulate its sliding mechanism one-handed - ""easy open, easy close"" with just your thumb doing the work. Protective skins for this model (frequently referred to by its battery brand name, Alcatel) can be found in abundance on Amazon, eBay and Google Shopping (for general listings of availability). More often than not, the S&H; will cost you more than the skin(s) itself/themselves.These points are worth considering, ESPECIALLY when compared to the level of personal need for the merchandise in question. This was just a replacement/DIY (do-it-yourself) upgrade of sorts. Just a specialized messaging type, slide design model cell phone to make texting more time and energy efficient in the long run. (Note: If anyone didn't realize yet, should you be on a standard 2-year agreement, you can buy a prepaid cell phone model to use with your phone plan sim card WITHOUT needing to re-negotiate your payment plan or phone contract with the service provider. Just switch the sim card out of 1 phone and put it in another while keeping the original as back-up.

SPDIF is a standard for transmitting high-quality digital audio withought going through analog conversion process.

I've tried to use Instant Music to transfer music from DAT to my iMac G4 using GarageBand (part of Apple's iLife suite). I followed the instructions (can be downloaded from ADS website) and successefully transmitted my music to the Mac and burned onto a CD using iTunes. For more advanced users, M-Audio's Transit may be a better choice as it can capture 24-bit/96kHz (as opposed to 16-bit/48kHz for Instant Music). Transit also allows AC-3 and DTS pass-through.

Very unhappy with the purchase.",599,0 +600,"Great Case + +not finding any reviews, i took a chance and I am glad I did. Lets do a Pro/Con list:Pro:-Hard protective case, covered by soft grip-able silicone cover.-Fits phone perfectly-Stand works for both directions and has a stopper so it doesn't flip out too far-Looks great on phone-does not hinder the volume or power buttons-headphone jack seems to be able to accept "L" shaped plugs-OEM charger/data cable fits perfect as well as some other cables close to that size- provides room so screen is not scratched when laying face downCons-Bulkier than expected-the stand is difficult to pop out-the case makes it VERY difficult to get the S-pen outThat's it. all in all, I am very satisfied with the case. I don't use the stand or S-pen often, so is shouldn't be a problem for me. the case should provide sufficient protection in the event of a fall and it looks good. the added bulk is acceptable considering the protection of an $800 phone. the price is unbeatable.This is not a water proof case, but will help keep mud and gunk out of the ports. Sound function and camera function do not seem to be compromised by the case.I will probably by more colors.",600,0 +601,"Now my i-pod is protected! + +The case met our expectation and it is used daily and well-liked.

I purchased this battery to replace the manufacturer's (Samsung) battery. The old battery didn't give long battery life (4-6) in standby with little use. So I seen the price of this battery and was a little skeptical, but thought it was low enough that I could absorb the cost if it didn't work well. Well its been 3 weeks since the battery has been used, and I have noticed a large increase in battery life. I can go for about 12 hours before charging (minimum use), and that is a huge increase for me since I was frustrated with the old battery. The battery works well, it came in manufacturer's packaging and quick shipping. I would deal with this company again for my other battery needs.",603,0 +604,"Doesn't work. + +Cable is labelled U4 instead of U9, not sure if that makes a difference...anyway, the one I received doesn't work.",604,0 +605,"Ear Bling + +I like new.

I hear people loud and clear and I like the volume control.It is more comfy than the Jabra BT150 that I've used for quite some time. I appreciate the difference in weight.But I'll be honest. If this ear piece didn't look so slick and cool, I'd never have spent this much money on it.

I would definitely recommend this to anyone.",606,0 +607,"Perfect Companion + +If you are looking for a cradle for your Sprint HTC Pro look no further this is the perfect charger and cradle. I selected this because of the 2nd battery charger. The Pro does not have the best battery life so I love that I can have a battery on back up and ready to go at all times. I am upgrading from the Mogul and I also purchased a cradle for that phone. The cradle for me is like having your phone on display and it is a very simplistic way of being able to charge the phone without having to connect the usb cables or a charger you just dock it and it is ready to go. The phone fits nice and snug in the dock. I keep a dock at home with my desktop and a dock at work. I have the Think Outside Stowaway keyboard which allows me to text and IM easily without having to remove the phone from the cradle. The only drawback that I find for this cradle is the fact that if there is not a battery in the 2nd battery charger the light flashes red and green when it is connected to the AC adapter. Which brings me to another point the cradle I previously owned the USB cord was connected permanently onto the cradle this has a usb cord and ac adapter that it comes with if you are going to be using the dock cradle only for syncing with your computer you can just connect the USB cable. If you turn off your system you would want to keep both connected because it does not charge the phone when the computer is off if you use only a usb cable because there is no power. But I digress. The flashing light does not bother me since the phone is docked at night in my living room with my desktop. But that does seem odd that it would flash when there is nothing in the battery slot. Previous docks I have owned eons ago when they came with your phone only lit up if there was an extra battery in the 2nd battery slot. I know this is a lot to say over a very inexpensive charger but I am happy with my purchase and with the camera being in the very center of my phone I hate to have to lie it on a surface so this keeps my phone and camera as scratch free as possible.",607,0 +608,"Perfect Accessory + +I use this for my iQue 3600.

Great little item well worth the price.",608,0 +609,"Pretty Nice + +UPDATE: So at first I didn't really like this screen protector, but now I've had it for a couple of months and it's pretty nice. The application was difficult for me. As soon as I took the protective cover off a lot of lint attached to the adhesive so I had to throw it away, but I got the second one on with minimal lint. Also if there are bubbles they smooth out pretty easily. I really like the fact that it is matte and no finger prints! Finger prints would drive me nuts, but now I don't have to wipe my phone down all that often. Also I have dropped my phone a couple times and one time it slid on the concrete face down and the screen protector did a nice job of preventing scratches on my screen. There are some visible scratches on the protector itself but it's not too bad, plus I have a couple more so I can replace it when it gets old. Before I wouldn't have recommended it but now I will because one screen protector will last you a long time. Also a lot of people are saying that the cut of the screen protector isn't for the Droid Mini but what I realized is that the reason that there is more room on the left is because it left room for the LED indicator lights. So this product is made perfectly for the Droid Mini. Definitely recommend it for the price.",609,0 +610,"Failure after 2 months + +I have owned my pair of JayBird BlueBuds X Sport bluetooth headphones for a little over 2 months. The sound quality is great, I've never experienced static or disconnects, and they stay out of my way when running and exercising. They are fairly inconspicuous with normal use (e.g. walking, sitting, etc). They hold a charge fairly well and last for a good amount of time. A normal day for me consists of a lot of walking and bus riding along with some exercising. I typically have the headphones being used for phone calls and playing music at least 4 hours a day. Aside from long use during a day mine have never been wet or mistreated. All that sounds great doesn't it? It is for the first month and a half.Then the headphones won't turn on at all unless you connect them to a computer and then disconnect them. Using a wall charger doesn't work for this. Once you can get them turned on they last maybe an hour on a full charge and then turn off. You then have to repeat the connect / disconnect process for them to turn on again until they shutoff again. Rinse and repeat as they say.When I contacted their support department (live chat from the website) it was a known issue but not for headphones as new as mine. Reading other reviews I am not the only person that has encountered this issue. Now I have to ship them back at my expense and wait 4-6 weeks to get replacements.Why did I give just 1 star even though when they worked they were awesome? For $150 I feel these things should last at least 1 year (preferably 2 years) without issue.",610,0 +611,"pureview + +This phone is a disappointment from what should be expected from Nokia to replace the N8.

This is the best sound I've ever heard from ear buds. I have used headphones that didn't sound this good. My brother is a professional audiophile and he was impressed.I haven't run the battery down, though I spend hours listening to books or music while working. I charge it up on my lunch break and it's good for the afternoon.Cons: This is a small annoyance, but there's a slight delay in the audio when watching Netflix on my Galaxy Note. I'm not usually staring at the actors' lips anyway, so I don't let it bother me. The sound quality makes up for this drawback. The same issue exists for music videos (think Sarah Brightman, Leona Lewis, Shania Twain, Faith Hill), but I think the delay is less with videos for some reason. Of course this isn't an issue when listening to music or books.There is little or no noise cancellation. The system works great on phone calls as long as you are quiet. Try doing the dishes while on the phone and your friend will protest the background noise and just might hang up on you.UPDATE:I foolishly washed my face with this around my neck.

I was hoping to hold out until the n97 but decided to give the 5800 a try.The phone itself is built very solidly for a midrange phone, there's no worry about dropping it and having it break on you, the screen is also very nice, this may not be the slimmest phone out there but it feels very comfortable in your hand, and the resolution looks amazing. I have a minor concern with the battery cover, it seems like it was more of an afterthought in the design of the device, there is no buttons or latches to secure it, just a few tabs that u click it into...I hope this doesn't break on me quickly.....but I don't see a need to be removing the cover very often, as the memory card and SIM card are inserted through the side, meaning this phone can have its memory cards switched very easily.The user interface seems like a quick and dirty job, it is basically the s60 v3 operating system with some bigger icons to make selection by touch a little easier. Not a major overhaul on the operating system basically everything looks the same as previous nokia smart phones, the camera, video, and music interfaces could have made better use of finger controls in my opinion.Another major concern that hopefully will be alleviated soon is the lack of third party apps, I'm assuming this operating system is still an infant and over time developers will start adapting their existing apps to use on touch devices.Handwriting recognition is my favorite input methods, although the full screen QWERTY comes in a close second.

It offers great protection for the phone and even enables for easier sliding. I highly recommend.",636,0 +637,"Just a standard messaging phone + +As an owner of this third edition of the Samsung Intensity and a previous owner of the first edition of this phone, I must say that I am not at all impressed by the newer version. I am not even sure if it is a “different” phone. It looks the same, it almost still works in the same way, and there are not enough new features to it to make it distinct from its ancestor. However, the Samsung Intensity III does have some pretty cool features that the first Intensity did not have back in the day, therefore this phone is just as good as a standard messaging phone.The specific phone that I own now is the Samsung Intensity III and I owned it for almost 2 years and it still looks brand new. When I own something for this amount of time, that thing will go through what I call “normal wear and tear”. I have dropped this phone onto concrete almost a million times. I have gotten the phone wet by accidentally dropping it in the sink a few times, I have accidentally left it in my hot inferno of my car in the July sun over the summer, and I have even dropped it while going down the stairs and the phone still works and looks brand new! I always wondered if I could shock it with a lightning bolt and check if this indestructible brick still works not that I would actually do that, but I am curious. If I were to “make up” some kind of category for reliability then I would say that yes, this indestructible flashy brick phone is very reliable and if the consumer who bought this was a clumsy, uncoordinated person like me, then this phone will last for years to come and still look fancy.This phone has a fake call capability to help the owner out of very awkward situations. The fake calling will actually look like someone is calling and you actually pick up the fake call then have a voice play so it will sound like someone is talking to you. It will give you an excuse to leave that weird and annoying person alone to pick up the call and either ditch that person you want to avoid, or think about what you want to say next to that person, depending on the mood I guess. In my past experience with the “fake call technology” , it actually works. It will seem as if someone has called and that the owner of the phone is engaged in a conversation on the phone. If anyone out there has the same problem as me by getting into a ton of awkward situations with other people, then this piece of technology will definitely bail them out in these awkward situations, and please give me a call and we can talk about our awkwardness over coffee.The sliding out the side qwerty keyboard actually makes this “flashy brick” look like a real phone when it slides out. The keyboard is good, but not perfect. A positive aspect that the keyboard has on the phone is that it has aesthetics, meaning it makes the phone look “cooler and sleeker”. It is also very entertaining for me to slide out repeatedly when I am bored in class or on a long car ride somewhere. It is also great for contacting people if you can type really fast on a qwerty keyboard. The buttons on then keyboard are comfortable enough so that the owner will not get tired of communicating as fast with other phones. Although the keyboard has these positive aspects, it can break very easily. Sometimes the buttons on the keyboard can wear out and not work anymore, therefore one cannot simply press the “b” button once, so they have to mash it in order for it to work. I have found myself mashing the backspace button sometimes because I have used it so much. On this keyboard it seems to me that the buttons are too small. The small buttons are bad because, sometimes or should I say, most if the time, I find myself typing out the wrong letters while in the middle of a word, so it can get frustrating. At least the phone is indestructible, the owner can throw it on the ground in a rage if they get frustrated with the phone's dainty, small keyboard. If a consumer is seeking to buy a standard messaging phone like this phone, I would look at other models and brands before considering to purchase this phone. If one has purchased this phone, be sure to not text to much because the keyboard will wear out pretty quickly.In the technology category of this phone, I would say it is pretty old, considering the fact that it was released in 2010 so it is far behind the smart phone technology capabilities. This phone does not have any apps or games on it, and the internet browsing is considered to be very archaic compared to other smart phones of today. The internet browsing is not as “user friendly” as the smart phones that are out in today's market. Also in a relative term, the internet does seem slower than the standard browsing speed of the smart phones as well. In the long run with this phone's internet capabilities, lacks this almost modern necessity for us to be always connected to the internet.Considering all of the Samsung Intensity's capabilities it just seems to be an “OK” phone. It is just a messaging phone for people who want to use it as a phone and not a “toy” to play games on it like a smart phone. Although it can be better than a standard messaging with the fake calling technology that this phone has in order for anyone to get out of awkward situations that anyone can get into. If a consumer desires a standard messaging phone with some pretty cool technology on the side then I would give this phone a seven out of ten.",637,0 +638,"V551 experience + +The phone is overall a complete packeage. However, there are a couple problems that I have experienced with this phone.First, the battery indicator goes very quickly from full to 2/3 to ""low battery"". Second, the brushed metal on the fron of the clamshell does scratch easily.Other than that, the hardware is excellent. While the programming could be somewhat improved, the important thing is that the phone will be able to coexist quite nicely with my laptop (a 12-inch iBook with a Bluetooth adapter). Call quality is very good, the Bluetooth implementation is very similar to the V600 (transfer audio, photo, and video between computer and phone easily) once you get it paired with your computer.Games: I don't view a cellphone as a device on which to play games; if that was a priority I would have bought one of the N-gages.

This phone may be the best Motorola that Cingular has to offer as far as capabilities are concerned, and for much less than the Razr, and without the Razr's bling factor.What I look for in a cellphone:1. GSM. The sim idea is probably one of the best ideas I have seen in a cellphone - ever.2. Bluetooth. With it, I get a phone that works well with my other equipment, and that goes a long ways. It's nice that the Bluetooth capabilities are not crippled, like Verizon does to the V710. (Can you hear ME now?!)3. Quad-band. Great to have if you travel abroad, though the international roaming rates are the real killer.4. Clamshell/flip phone. I don't want to accidentally hit the ""send"" key.",638,0 +639,"Cool Case - A bit soft and loose + +This case is a nice soft material that glows in the dark.

It has not broken at all. it charges my iPhone 5 really fast and its amazing to be able to play on my phone from the other side of the room. it gets a little tangled because on the length but thats about it. If u really look at it tho, not even the real apple chargers last long. so when this one does break. i will be buying another one from this same seller!",640,0 +641,"Privacy and protection! Sounds like my love life. + +I purchased this protector for my girlfriend's White iPhone 4 so I wouldn't be as jealous of who she is texting all the time(JK!). She wanted a cover with privacy to protect her phone and not let her coworkers see anything. I did some online comparisons and for the price, this seemed like it might work.The protector itself is pretty thick, but not surprising since it is accomplishing everything you need in a protector. I had no issues getting it on the phone. There was one dust bubble that you really can barely notice since the protector is think and dark.When she is using her phone, during the day, I can't see on thing on her screen, almost 100% privacy. At night, or in dimmed rooms, when the LCD display is ""brighter"" than the surrounding light and you can see little more on the screen, just a little blurred.Since she has a White iPhone 4, this renders the front of it gray, with a white home button.

So glad I made this purchase:)",643,0 +644,"The future has arrived, and it is called the Droid-X + +Motorola DROID X Android Phone (Verizon Wireless)I had been holding out for the iPhone, but had refused to move over to AT&T; from my Verizon service, which I have been totally satisfied with these past 6 years or so. When the DROID-X was announced, I began reading the reviews and looking over the specs. The more I read, the more impressed I became.However, most of the reviews trashed the operating system, Android 2.1, so I keep looking, reading, and doing nothing. As luck would have it, my old Verizon phone, the LG Versa, got its windshield cracked and I was unable to view the display. So it was time to act. I had talked the talk, now I needed to walk the walk.The Verizon people spent a lot of time with me discussing the plans and options, features of the phone, etc. So I gave them a few hundred bucks and ordered the DROID-X. The first good surprise was it came in a week early. As part of the ""package"" I purchased the leather carrying case, the Multimedia docking station, and the 32GB SD Card upgrade.Size MattersNow I had read that the graphic display was not as good as the iPhone, but in reality, it is wonderful. The larger size (4.3"") screen is impressive and the virtual keyboard fits my fat fingers perfectly. The touch screen is at least as good as the iPhone (and iPod Touch which I previously owned). Being slightly larger, everything appears brighter to me than the iPhone, I don't see how the resolution could be any better than the 480x854 resolution (the iPhone is 960x640 and the screen size is 3.5"" so obviously the resolution is better, but I cannot see it). For those apps that support it, the display can be either portrait or landscape. It takes about a second to change over. While the Droid-X is notable larger than the iPhone (and I believe almost any other phone on the market today), it is not heavy. I did a side by side weight comparison with my LG Versa phone and they felt about the same to me. Its official weight is about 5.5 ozs.NavigationScrolling is a breeze. Works perfectly, never selects unwanted objects while scrolling, and is only limited by the speed of the downloading, which I found more than adequate, especially since I am used to Comcast high speed internet access on the Sony Win7 PC. There are 5 different home screens, and each can be customized to a theme, or you can just put stuff on them if that is what you want. They do share a common background/wallpaper, however.Operating SystemI read a lot of negative things regarding Android 2.1. However, my phone came with Android 2.2 and I have not had any problems at all. It is truly a multi-tasking operating system, I can play music, download files and navigate through apps all at the same time with no noticeable delays. Now you need to understand that I am used to dealing with Microsoft windows, so my expectations are very low for any operating system. So far, I am pleased with Android 2.2, I have found no glitches, and my phone has only frozen once and that was caused by the SD Card (needed to be reformatted for this specific phone). The integration between apps and operating system is mostly seamless, but again, every specific app has its own characteristics and quirks.Dropped CallNever ~ that's why I stay with Verizon. Coverage is better than AT&T;, as I have verified over and over again during my travels across the US. I get coverage everywhere I go. Period.Camera/VideoThe 8MB camera built into the Droid-X is actually better than my 8MB Canon SD870 IS. The pictures are clearer and the videos are far superior. Droid-X claims video resolution is HD720P and I have no reason to doubt that spec. To view the photos and video, I used the basic app [Gallery] that came as the default app. I have paid good money for photo display apps on my PC that aren't near as nice as this one. It seamlessly integrates video with photos, so I can walk-through everything instead of going to a different folder or display setting. Since my HDMI cable has not yet arrived, I cannot test the upload to PC or TV capability, which is the true test of any video (anything looks good on a 4"" monitor but how about a 40"" monitor?). Still, HD720P is 720P so it should look good on any size screen. Digital Zoom - Yes, Flash - Yes. What else do you need to know. Just go and take some pictures. As far as sound is concerned, the Droid-X had 3 mics, and one is used for noise-canceling, and during my headphone sound test, I was able to clearly hear the birds singing and chirping in our back yard. Now, the iPhone 4 does have one very big advantage over the Droid-X, a front facing camera. If you are using video phone or Skype, that would be a handy feature to have, to be sure.AppsOk, so Android does not have a million apps like the iPhone. Oh, boo hoo. There are thousands of apps and I'm sure there will be millions at some point but who really cares. It took me over an hour to go through just the free apps offered in ""The Market"". I found a dozen or so that I started with, and most of them were fun, entertaining, informative or whatever they were suppose to be. I'll just get into a few specific apps in this review, and the rest ~ download them and see for yourself. The Droid-X had 8GB of internal memory dedicated just to apps and the operating system. That doesn't really sound like a lot to me, as I have a T-byte drive on my PC and it is somehow getting filled up with who knows what. But, after downloading apps all day, I still had 6.26GB remaining, so I guess I shouldn't worry too much about it ~ download away!EmailVerizon hooked me up with both Google gMail and linked in my Comcast email account. I haven't used the gMail account but the Comcast account works flawlessly and pressing a single email icon retrieves my inbox. Also, one of those 5 menu screens I previously spoke of contains the inbox right there on the menu screen, so what could be easier. Of course, this is only a copy of the email so I have to delete emails in two places now, but that is not a big deal to me. For those of you who get 100s of emails a day (and I know who some of you are), you would be advised to download some sync software, otherwise you will be spending a lot of time managing your email files.MusicThe primary reason I wanted an iPhone was for the music. My wife and I have several iPods and we use iTunes to manage all of our music, so I was a little worried about how that would all workout with the Droid-X. My previous experience with cell phones that play music (i.e. LG Versa & ENV2) is that they Suck (yes, that is the technical term). So I was forced to carry the cell phone and my iPod when I went on any trip or walked the mall, or whenever I wanted to listen to some good ole rock `n roll.Those days are over. My very first downloaded app was DoubleTwist, which is free. It has both a PC and phone component. Once you download the PC component, it auto-syncs with your iTunes library, and builds links to all songs stored in iTunes with the exceptions of songs purchased through the iTunes store. As soon as I hooked the phone to my PC via the supplied USB cable, it began to download [sync] all of my music to the SD Card in the phone. I have almost 3,000 songs so that took a couple of hours to complete. Please note that all Verizon phones want you to download V-Cast, but avoid the temptation since that software, well how should I say it, well it sucks too.Once all of my music was downloaded, I just touch the DoubleTwist app icon and I am off and listening. I only use the shuffle function, but DT imported all of my playlists, so there are lots of options regarding how to select and play your music.The unexpected bonus is that the other Music player app that was preinstalled in the Droid-X also plays my music, and I can even play it when the phone is in the multi-media charger by pressing the > music icon. What could be easier.Pandora RadioAnother free app you simply cannot live without if you are a music lover. Once you download the software, you can pick an artist or category of music and Pandora Radio will dynamically build you a playlist. There is a 30 second commercial every 15 minutes or so, but someone has to pay the bill for free music, so I did not find this too annoying.BlueTooth SupportI have the Nokia BH-905 Bluetooth Wireless Stereo Headphones, and I was able to pair these headphones to my Droid-X on the very first try. Now, with those other phones (the ones I previously mentioned that sucked), they would switch to mono every time I turned on the music, and if you pressed pause, then goodbye music. Ugh. The Droid-X interacts with my Nokia headphones seamlessly (have I used that word here before?) All functions [volume, next song, last song, pause] work from the headphones as well as directly from the phone (I have trouble calling the Droid-X a ""phone"" because that does not begin to describe this device). With those other ""phones"" the music would often skip, stutter, or even squeak. None of these ""special effects"" have occurred since I starting using the Droid-X. The sound for both my music and Pardora Radio is incredible. I've never heard better sound quality from any MP3 music player, and I've owned quite a few of them. Speaking of seamless, I got a phone call while listening to my music, and it automatically switched over after a couple of beeps ~ so be carefully if you are singing along to the music as I was at the time ~ oh embarrassment!. Once the caller ""hung up"" the music starting playing again, from the exact point it left off, and I was back to my singing (but I have decided to keep my day job). I will eventually learn how to turn-off the phone's auto-answer while I am in music mode, since there are definitely some people I don't want to talk to (most have 877 numbers).Battery LifeAnytime you run multiple apps concurrently, you drain the battery (battery 101). Just make sure that you don't leave the apps running, which is not always as easy as it sounds. Since the Droid-X is a multi-tasking device, you can be playing music, downloading apps, and navigating through your email at the same time. If the battery becomes an issue, download Advanced Task Killer and use that to terminate unwanted app run-on. Personally, I do not find that the battery discharges any quicker than those other lesser phones (those phones that suck, remember).Upgradable SD CardThe Doid-X comes standard with a 16GB ""user"" memory card installed. I opted for the 32GB upgrade since I am known as a data snob and carry around an 8GB flash drive in my pocket. After loading my 3000 or so songs, I still had over 5GB left on the original 16GB card, so maybe I didn't need the 32GB card after all. I'll throw it in a drawer and if I ever need it, I'll just pop it in, re-sync my music and I'll be set for another 4000 songs or 40 hours of video. Now the lesson learned here is that you should go with the original 16GB card and not pay the $100-150 for the 32GB Upgrade if you don't need it today. As we all know, next month it will be $89, then $79 and within a year you'll probably be able to buy it for a $1 or so. But hay, we are all entitled to make a mistake, and this was mine.3G Mobil HotspotNow I did have to pay the $30 per month for the unlimited data plan, but I did not pay the $20 for the 5 user WiFi hotspot upgrade. Let someone else pay for their internet connection ~ not me. The Droid-X does come with WiFi built in and I have already connected to both my home network and TGI Friday's network. It takes less than a minute to connect. The only advantage to the WiFi connection vs. the phone network connection is the download speed. However, I could not tell much difference in the speed, so the only time I will probably use the WiFi is on a plane, or some other special situation where my phone service is not available. Note: Using the WiFi feature does eat the battery, so be careful out there.Multi-Media Docking Station AccessoryThe other accessory I opted for in my ""bundle"" was the multi-media docking station. Yea, I love it. When you dock the phone to the station, it automatically turns into a giant clock/weather station. Even with music going and the display running, the phone charges in no time, unlike my last phone that took literally hours to charge through the PC USB connection. The docking station also provides for an HDMI connection, so if your Droid-X is located near a PC that has an HD Input (My Sony Does) or an HD TV monitor, you can stream your videos or photos to that output device through the push of an icon or two.

Of course, none of the service providers have had them for several years - the flip phone is a vanishing item.Amazon sells this one through HassleFree, which is anything but. Mine came from Australia, programed for the main service provider there, Telstra. Setting it up for a U.S. provider requires some work. For instance, when you try to dial your voice mail, it will attempt to contact a voicemail box in Australia. It took a trip to an ATT store to get this changed.Also, the phone always shows a ""new voice mail"" icon when none is there. Further, after a voice mail is left, it is always followed by a text message showing a few strange symbols. ATT tech service was very good, but told me this is an electronic quirk that can't be remedied. Due to the differences in Telstra and ATT phone programming.The seller puts difficult limitations on a return for refund, i.e. No more than 30 minutes talk time.

It has the distinction of being the only current phone to be blessed by Sony to play certain PlayStation games. Of course, the media and consumers jumped on the assumption - flawed though it was - that this must be an evolution of a PSP. Trust me, it's far from that. In fact, I would liken it more to the N-Gage, but without cartridges, just so happens to be Sony rather than Nokia.As a phone, the Xperia Play (XP) has its pluses and minuses. I was actually (unlike certain others) impressed with the general build quality. Apple has gotten people hating plastic, which is unfortunate, because plastic done right can actually result in a solid device (see any of the HTC phones). The build of the XP is a hybrid of plastic and metal, and it feels solid to the touch. The idea that the screen flexes when pressing it is quite ludicrous, and I would submit that the user ended up with a lemon, but I digress. The slider technology makes the phone quite a bit thicker than other candidates in the phone lineup at Verizon, and it is this which may be a turn-off to some shoppers. Anyone who has used a Sidekick will know what I'm talking about, because it's basically the same thickness. The XP is quite a bit smaller than other phones though, fits in the hand nicely, and has a nice grip. To its detriment, the power button is extremely recessed in the top and difficult to press one-handed. Not impossible, but it was annoying.Much has been made of the single core-ness of the XP, and I will tell you this: The single core only matters when typing. That's it. Anything else and the phone is quite fast. It renders web pages and applications faster than even my HTC Thunderbolt which has a faster processor. Typing is where it all breaks down though - the keyboard cannot keep up with the fastest of touch typers. I'm not like the younguns of today in terms of texting or screen typing speed, but I can hold my own as I knock out a business email quickly on the Thunderbolt. Doing the same exercise on the XP was absolutely frustrating, as the accuracy went straight to hell under the same conditions, and in some cases, just didn't do anything at all as it struggled to catch up with my fingers. It's a bit ironic - the whole reason I'm even trying this device is because of the horrid nature of touch gaming, and yet, its touch typing is so bad. Regular touch navigation was fine, in fact it felt a bit better and more reliable than other touch screens that I've used, and I've used a lot. There are certain screens that just ""Feel Right"" and the XP's is one of them...just not for typing, unfortunately.The screen brightness is perfectly fine when in normal lighting conditions. Outside, forget it. It's not that it isn't bright enough, it's that it can't overpower the natural lighting of the outdoors like some other devices such as any of the Samsung AMOLED screens. The screen is also not polarized, and screen protectors for anti-glare may actually make the effect even worse. It's true the screen brightness and detail is less so than that of the HTC Thunderbolt or other devices, but again, in normal lighting or darker lighting this isn't that much of a big deal.Audio quality was a mixed bag. When gaming, the audio is fine, but when trying to do what the thing was designed to do (be a phone), it falls short. The speaker is of average loudness, but on the other end the quality is terrible...as if you're speaking through a HAM radio or something. It wasn't nearly as clear as I expected it to be given what I know of Ericsson phones of years past, and mind you, I was standing in a dead-silent room for the test. I didn't get a chance to test wind noise, because I was so disappointed with its performance even disregarding wind or other interfering factors.The phone's strongest attribute is simply its battery. Even on good brightness with wireless and GPS on, the phone managed to do 3-4 days on standby easily. With regular usage (which in my testing is gaming and email), it still managed to last 1-2 days without needing a charge. Compared to the Thunderbolt which required rooting and a custom ROM to last the duration of a day with GPS off and email only (GPS on results in a loss of 6 hours), I can only imagine that the theory about 4G burning through the battery even when not in active use must be true. Additionally I believe the XP has a larger battery to begin with, because it would take me adding the extended battery to the XP to get to the same or roughly the same thickness. Still, I was readily impressed by the battery performance of the XP. If it weren't for the touch typing issue, I would switch immediately, but I depend too much on email; so much so that this is an instant deal breaker.I know people are wondering about the gaming. And I will tell you that gaming is the one area where I believe the Xperia Play has the most issues. It's not the device's fault though, rather the games themselves. You see, when you slide out the XP, it will open the game interface. There are a number of games already included with the device, some of which are of basic fun (Bruce Lee). The problem here is that most people will buy the XP thinking that these physical controls should automatically work with every Android game out there; they don't. In fact, in Verizon Wireless' V-CAST Apps, they have screened out Android apps that have been specifically configured for the XP. This list is tremendously lower than the full list on the Market. Others may or may not work depending on how the game was created. I'm an RPG gamer, not an FPS gamer, not a fighting gamer (anymore). TO me it seems a no-brainer to have an RPG on a device like this, so I fired a couple up.Gailardia is basically a Dragon Quest/Warrior rip-off, down to the core. Maybe that's why I love it so much. It works perfectly with the XP.Zenonia is basically a hybrid of Secret of Mana and Tales of Destiny. Not a bad game, not overly advanced, but it has charm to it and it's price is quite right (less than a buck for each episode). Doesn't work well with the XP's controls; there are times you will press a direction key and nothing will happen, or he'll be walking and then suddenly stop for no clear reason. Or certain buttons won't respond. You also can't navigate 100% of the menu using the physical buttons, forcing you to revert to touch.Symphony of Eternity is the one with the most potential, think Final Fantasy 1 rip-off with superior graphics. Took a long time to get to control, but then I noticed that buttons only worked outside of battle. In battle I was forced to use the touch screen, defeating the purpose.It is this inconsistency of support (let's call it gaming fragmentation) that really hurts the overall experience. I know that the game developer must write the game to map to the physical controls in order to make them work, and a lot of these games were in existence prior to the Xperia Play, but certainly there must be some sort of compatibility mode that is available to make it work better. The only other alternative is to download specially written APKs that allow you to play some of these games directly with the Xperia Play, or be charged again by Sony to play their versions which are already written for it.It might seem like I'm down on the device, in truth I'm rather disappointed, but it's not the device's fault. Rather, I feel that something like this should have come out a lot earlier in the development cycle for Android, such that game developers would have felt inclined to write specifically for it, and then maybe it would have more appeal. I also feel that this is really what the PSP Go was meant to be from the start, but obviously that plan fell through. I don't know now what the future holds for the XP...my guess is that it will be relegated to the same fate eventually that the N-Gage ended up in. It's hard to recommend the XP over other devices even if you're a gamer because of the aforementioned fragmentation. It's not a bad device, it's just not a great one.",659,0 +660,"below expectations + +i had bought a samsung e715 last time when i was in the USA. the phone was simply great except that when i took it to india, the signal reception became bad. i couldnt get signal within my house, which is kinda in the heart of the city.. so this time i wanted to settle for a nokia phone, as i know nokia is known for its reception and customizable features.so let me start with the pros of the phone:1. small size2. rubber grip is good as it prevents the small phone from slipping off the hand3. rubber keypad- keypad design is innovative and makes usage easy inspite of the space constraint4. glowing leds attractive for the teen group5. decent battery lifeCONS:1. first of all, the phone was initially advertised as a triband phone operating on 900mhz,1800 and 1900. but nokia sells 2 models of 3200- one normal 3220 and the other one - 3220b (this operates on 850 in place of 900) - t-mobile usa sells 3220b which means this phone wont work in india and many other parts of asia.i called up customer support. they promptly changed the wrong info on their website and asked me to return the phone to the dealer. the dealer refuses to take the phone, saying that he would lose 25%. after 2 days he told me that he spoke to t-mobile and that t-mobile would send me a 900mhz 3220 phone in 5 days.. today i call up cust service and i see theres no record of such a call. so im caught in this battle now..the CSR tells m that since i cant return the phone after 15 days.. i have to buy a new phone from them and that t-mobile cant replace the phone. damn...wish i had sued t-mobile and got a huge compensation fortheir blunder.2. picture caller id was another thing i was looking for. samsung e715 has a pic called id, but its useless, as u would see the pic only if u open the flip phone. by this time, u would know the caller form the id on the front lcd. so i had opted for a non-flip phone.. only here, nokias pic is so small that, its very tough to spot the caller through the pic. this is again a major flop feature.3. speaker is loud.. but quality is bad4. the WORST of all. the center key is used as select, unlike the left key in other nokias. its very tough to hit the center key correctly. u mostly end up hitting one of the arrow keys. i have improved with practise.. but its still a pain5. everytime u make a call the phone says note:call forwarding active. this is bcoz allour phones are set to forward calls to voice mail if theres no answer. but why should a phone display a note to the user about this.. its very annoying.. t-mobile CSR says its afeature of the phone and it cant be customized or deactivated.7",660,0 +661,"dissapointed of this phone + +i bought this phone and i was all exited for all they said in the videos about the phone and now i have it and it freezes all the time and i tried to return it and now they wont let me thats what happen when someone buy stuff on line they dont care if your concerned",661,0 +662,"Not exactly what I thought it was going to be, but it works as advertised. + +My wife put this on her wish list for Christmas as she likes to run all the time and wanted a water proof case for when it's raining. I don't think this is exactly what she had in mind (as I'm not sure what she was thinking, because what case would be 100% water proof, yet still allow for head phone jack to be used while running?), but I think it would work for the most part. The case itself is made of a durable thick plastic that is molded together into one seam running around on three sides. There is no easy access to your power or volume buttons, though if you push really hard, you can utilize them. It's a little cumbersome, but I don't think this was intended to be a case where you are fully utilizing your phone, rather it's more to keep it safe from water damage while you're out extreme sporting. The front is a clear plastic and it does allow for easy use of the touch screen, though in my test, I kept myAcase Superleggera PRO Dual Layer Protection Case AT&T;, Sprint, T-Mobile and Verizon Samsung Galaxy S3 - Blue/Blackcase on, and it was really hard to slide into and back out of the case, and it was also hard to access the touch screen because my case is raised about 1/8"" from the screen. If using a smaller case, or no case at all, you'll have no problems accessing the screen through the plastic. Additionally, there is a window on the back for what I assume is to allow you to use your camera while it's in the case. The top appears to seal very well, though the two ""knobs"" or ""dials"" that you turn to open are REALLY hard (at least harder than I'd expect with something like this). There are arrows and letters on the top 'C ->' 'O <-' on the left side and 'O->' 'C <-' on the right side, indicating which way to turn the knob/dials to open and close the case. Turn both dials outwards and the top opens, slide your phone in (sans case if you want an easy fit), and then turn both dials inwards and the top seals shut tight. I didn't submerge my phone inside this case, as I wasn't sure exactly how ""water proof"" it was, though I did end up folding up a paper towel and putting it inside the case, then fully submerging it under water for 60 seconds. The paper towel was dry upon opening the case, however, a few drops did remain around the top, which did drip inside the case. If you take care to dry the case thoroughly before opening it, I believe the inside would remain 100% dry. Overall, I don't think this is a bad case if you're looking for the water proof attributes, but this isn't something I'd recommend for biking/running, as you'll more than likely want to use your head phones, and there is no easy way to use the headphones with this case, unless you leave the top open, thus eliminating the water proofing abilities.",662,0 +663,"Really nice aluminum frame + +This thing fits like a glove and snaps closed perfectly. It does not provide any protection to the back or front, but simply provides a nice frame to make the phone a little more sturdy and easier to grip. If I had any complaints at all, it would be over the power and headphone openings, which are too small for most after-market items. While it does work with the OEM items from Samsung, it would be nice if the openings were large enough to fit after-market products. I ended up using a small file and making the holes larger. No big deal.",663,0 +664,"I Loooooove it sooooooo much!!! + +I receive so many compliments with this phone case and it so cute.

What I don't like the key to access the web is very easy to press by accident (no data plan) and that could prove costly (2 cents a second?) Themes and tones are limited but I found a nice background to use as well as a tone.

It comes with a screen protector, cleaning cloth, and a little desk stand for the phone. There is a soft rubber inner case which fits the phone perfectly. Then a harder case fits snugly around the soft case thus providing a hard shell with soft rubber inside for shock absorption. Even with all this the case is not excessively bulky and easily fit in my pocket and a horizontal phone pouch that was made for my iPhone 5 sans any case whatsoever. The hard part of the case has a nice brushed feel to it and does not feel like hard plastic at all. I accidentally dropped my phone from waist height and no damage. My only issue with this case is very, very minor and that's the fact that there are two narrow pieces of the inner rubber lining that go across the bottom of the case where it's open for access for the sync/power cable and earphones. If you have only the new Apple Lightning to USB cables it's no problem. However, if you have a lot of the old Apple 30 pin USB cables and want to use the Lightning to 30 pin adapters those two little pieces of the inner case prevent the insertion of the adapter into the phone. I just removed them with a scissors and it's all good. All in all a great case.",667,0 +668,"Too Many Problems + +I ordered this phone as an ""upgrade"" from an Optimus V after the V was stolen. (Can you believe that, way would anyone steal an Optimus V?) and have had nothing but problems with the phone since I got it two weeks ago. The manual says you can add up to a 32gb sd card but my phone will not mount any sd card and I have tried different cards thinking that the card might have been bad, nope, not the card it's the phone. Phone has a weird internal memory which it seems to think is the sd card or at least it behaves that way. Everything on the phone has been slow to open since I got it and after spending the time to set up the Menu screens the way I wanted them the phone just wiped everything I did at random one day when I powered it on. Now I can not get it to download any apps at all and it locks up every time I go to the settings menu. The Optimus Elite settings say I have the most recent software update so there is no ""fix"" to be found there and VM is not very good at pushing updates for their phones anyway. I am not a power user, if I was I would go for a much better, more expensive phone but this model is not an ""upgrade"" at all from my old Optimus V, which was no speed demon but never failed me. I just want a phone to work well as a phone, let me download a few apps for productivity and a couple games, listen to some music occasionally. The Optimus Elite is not that phone, I would not recommend this model to anyone after all the problems I have had with it, I am returning it.",668,0 +669,"Great Phone!!!! + +I absolutely love this phone. I've had it for almost 2 months now and its awesome. I haven't encountered dust in my phone like some people have and the trick to prolonging battery life is to not charge it all night or past the time it stops charging. I charge mine in the morning while I get ready for the day or if I charge it at night I make sure I don't have it plugged past the point of the battery being charged. The only thing I can complain about is not YET being able to make mp3's ringtones but I'm working on that ;-). AWESOME PHONE.",669,0 +670,"Love the Jot Touch + +I've been drawing on my iPad for quite a while, first starting with my fingner, then I did the homemade stylus thing (with conductive foam), eventually I bought a pogo and a few others. Although all of these were nice, they all had some downsides, they didn't have weight, they didn't last long (the foam), they got sticky (the pogo) and above all, I wished I could get better accuracy. A distant wish was pressure sensitivity, but I wasn't going to hold my breath.Then the Jot touch popped up on the internet...I've been waiting for a LONG time for this type of stylus to come to market. I've tracked others including the Creigle iPen and the Jaja Stylus and I believe this is the best of all the current options. The Creigle iPen doesn't have pressure sensitivity and has limited app support. The Jaja is a kickstarter project and I don't believe it is being produced to the same professional quality as Jot Touch.Pros:o The stylus has a great weight to it and feels good in the hand.o The tip has a little bit of a ""spring"" to it, which is in part because of the pressure sensitivity, which makes it feel really nice using on the iPad.o The pressure sensitivity is great in Procreate (I believe the best art production app on the iPad).o The shortcut buttons are convenient.o Lot's of the best apps support the pen and even if they don't the tip still works as a stylus (no pressure).o The clear disk allows you to be very accurate when drawing. If the app you are using has a offset option it will line up on the dot.Cons:o The tips are ""consumable"" as described by Adonit. Over time the connection between the ""ball"" and the plastic disk will wear out and they will no longer work. Replacement disks are $6 for 2, which isn't bad considering comparing cost to pencil, charcoal, ink or paint in the real world. Time will tell how this design holds up. The stylus comes with 2 tips, so you are covered for a while if you aren't a power user. I used one tip for 5 hours one day and started having some issues with it, which based on Adonits support forums is not typical. I'll be following up with them on that one and based on what I've read, they are responsive if you get a dud tip.o The power button is tough to press to reconnect to the iPad. This is a pro/con, you don't want to turn things off by mistake, but it would be nice if it were easier.o Not all software is perfect yet. As I mentioned above, I think Procreate nailed it compared to Art Rage, Sketchbook Pro and Art Studio.To wrap it up, I love this thing. Best $100 I spend on a hobby in a long time. If you are an artist get it. It's not a Cintiq, but it sure is a great artists complement to an iPad.",670,0 +671,"Thought it was awesome, UNTIL I used it for a few weeks + +First one of these I bought had a crack in the upper right corner I noticed a few days after I started using it. I contacted Amazon, and had a great experience with the customer service (I always have had good service) and they sent out a replacement and I sent back the damaged one. Well I'm 2 weeks into the new case and it starts catching somehow and wont allow me to slide the Pre open, you have to literally almost force it, which I don't care to do as it might damage the phone. Also, if its charging you cant get the slider open because the case and the charger port cover conflict and it blocks the slider. Another flaw which could be an asset in a different location is the volume button covers which are tall, are right where you hold the phone on the top right of the phone. So as I'm talking I constantly hit the down volume without realizing it and so then my phone ends up on mute because I turned the volume down and didn't realize it. Its really a pain in the neck. I was very excited when I got this case because even though it was pricey, it seemed to be a good quality and I had tried several cheaper ones that just wouldn't work. The screen protector they send you only covers the middle of the touchscreen and leaves the bottom and top unprotected. I still think the quality isn't bad, but the design is TERRIBLE !!! Don't waste your effort or money on this case, you will be disappointed. Well I'm off to search for another case that will actually work. Bummer, thought my search was over !",671,0 +672,"Cheap, yuck + +Ew. I ended up returning these and eating the shipping cost because they were totally flimsy and cheap.

It lets you stand it vertically or horizontally, like it.The holster is ok. It holds the phone screen in for protection but the phone is easily knocked out particularly when it is used horizontally on your belt. I have dropped my phone more in the last 2 weeks than I have in the two previous months before I got it.The biggest drawback is the drag on the keyboard when you try to slide it out. I had to modify the clips that hold the case onto the phone so they don't drag against the back of the screen when the keyboard is exposed. I feel that this may be causing damage to the track that the two halves of the phone slide on.I'm debating if I want to keep it just for the kickstand or just give up on it.Scrap that had to edit my review and change from 3 stars to ONE STAR.

I am with T-Mobile and the internet and apps are very slow when I am hooked to their network, however when I hook up to wi-fi the video's and internet are very quick. This isn't the phone's fault, it's either T-Mobile or our metal roof interfering with the signal. I gave it 4 stars because I am somewhat disappointed that it doesn't have a LED to alert me to new messages or emails although it will play a sound. It also has nothing to alert me when the phone is fully charged after being plugged in. I was unable to find accessories for it locally as far as cases and sleeves but I was able to find them on Amazon at very reasonable prices.

Well, not really. So let me spare you and the Amazon Marketplace vendor (Noble Planet) some angst, and tell you how to get past that problem.We hooked up ours and beheld the same solid magenta GPS light and rapidly-flashing SYS light mentioned by the other reviewer. Looking in the online manual available at [...] I see that indeed this translates to ""hardware failure"" with no solution. BUT IT'S WRONG.The REAL problem was that our Dlink DIR-825 router was not permitting the device to communicate properly. After lots of troubleshooting between Verizon Wireless and Dlink and efforts to open up ports on the router and ensure specific IP addresses weren't blocked, we finally chucked the DIR-825 and bought aLinksys EA4500 App-Enabled N900 Dual-Band Wireless-N Router with Gigabit and USB. As soon as the Network Extender was connected to the new router all the lights turned blue over the course of about ten minutes (as they're supposed to) and the unit began working.IF YOU HAVE ANY PROBLEM with one of these units, try hooking it DIRECTLY to your broadband modem and bypassing the router. If it works there, the problem is with the router, NOT with the network extender. With a compatible router this thing REALLY IS plug-and-play.Oh - one more thing: you DO have to call Verizon and have the MAC address for the unit (printed on the label underneath) added to your Verizon account. Otherwise it won't work. This is easy to do and does NOT require that you have a business Verizon account. Call 'em up, tell them what unit it is, and that it needs to be activated by having its MAC address added to your account. That's all you need to do.With that said, this IS a finicky unit in one important respect. It can only work with a compatible router, and if it isn't connected to one it will give you confusing feedback as to what's wrong. Skip past EVERYTHING else and hook directly to the broadband modem to rule out everything except the unit itself. And be prepared to replace your router.One more thing: Noble Planet, which sells this unit via Amazon Marketplace, is very responsive and helpful. We were very happy with their service.",677,0 +678,"Cheap + +Very cheap price, very cheap looking. You get what you pay for. Absolutely no quality.

It's so nice to have when I don't want to carry the long charger chord around with me. I definitely recommend this case and may even buy one for my family and friends.

BUYER BEWARE.",684,0 +685,"HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT + +I got this phone in early September 2006 and paid $100 more for it than it costs now. Both my husband and I got the same phone. His phone may rate as high as a 2 or 3 but I'm giving mine a 1. I'm already on my second one. I have a lot of problems with the phone ""echoing."" Everything I say gets repeated back to me and I can't hear the other person. Sprint told me it was a problem with the phone and gave me a different one... but now my 30-day exchange period is up and this one is even worse than the first. It doesn't happen on every call, but it happens often enough to be extremely annoying.Other problems -- BATTERY LIFE GETS A NEGATIVE 10. My battery is often completely dead after 1-2 hours of standby, non-roaming use. I've been stranded without a phone DOZENS of times. I charge it up all night, leave the house with it fully charged in the morning, maybe make one two minute phone call, and it powers off with a dead battery within 2 hours. I also have a tremendous problem with it constantly saying ""Data Call in Progress."" This is obviously what is running the battery down every day, but no one at Sprint can tell me what is making that happen and I'm not running any applications or making any data calls. I try dialing out, and I can't - it says Data Call In Progress. I try in vain to find anything that is running or making a data call, power off, pull out the battery, start back up -- and it still says Data Call in Progress. Then my phone powers off because the battery is dead. I've been trying to find a car charger and an extended life battery, but neither are available at my local Sprint store, on the Sprint website, or on Amazon as far as I can tell.Camera -- I bought this phone because I wanted a megapixel camera and this seemed like it would be a good one. Every picture, however, is horrible. Much worse than the crappy old phone I had before that had a low resolution camera. Colors are distorted and you practically need to mount the phone on a tripod to get a steady shot (not that you can actually do that).Music -- It's very annoying that the Sprint Music store launches every single time you want to play a song. Also, the Sprint music player can't play MP3s that you load from your computer. You can only play those through a separate part of the phone, and then it only works if the phone is OPEN. You also have to advance to the next song yourself because there is no play list of your own songs. It works fine for the songs you buy through the Sprint store, however.FM Transmitter -- I've tried three phones now (my first one, my current one, and my husband's Fusic) -- in three different vehicles, and the FM Transmitter didn't work at all in any of them. The guy at the Sprint store told me that is common, his wife's doesn't work either. Apparently you will have better luck if your car has an antenna built into the face plate inside the car, or it would possibly work if you wanted to stick it in the back window closer to the antenna.Vision - WHAT A HUGE RIP-OFF. My previous plan, which I used with my old phone that broke in half, included Vision for free. I didn't change my plan at all, I just changed our two phones -- so imagine my surprise when I found out that I was now being billed an extra $50 a month for Vision. I called them and they said my plan included regular Vision and this phone doesn't work with regular Vision so they automatically ""upgraded"" me to Power Vision Ultimate for $25 per line. Information that would have been useful for them to share with me before I bought this phone. There are some cool features with the Sprint On Demand, such as movie listings and Mapquest locations on your phone, but the few times I've actually needed to use those services, the Sprint network has been down and unable to connect. Plus - $25 per line per month for Power Vision and that doesn't even include text messaging??Alarm - you can't change the interval of the Snooze. You could do this in my old phone and it was very handy.Receiving Calls - I'm not sure if this a problem with the Sprint network or with this phone, but half the time, these dumb phones don't ring. My husband and I have tested it (because it causes many an argument when you call someone ten times and they don't answer and then you found out the phone never rang). We have tried it out at home. Both phones turned on, both show a full signal, both have the ringer volume on... but we try calling them, either from a landline or from the other phone, and it goes straight into voicemail and never rings at all. Then the voicemail indicator goes off and you have the message, but the phone never rang and nothing shows up in the missed call log. That's happened when other people have tried to call me too, from other wireless networks. The phone just goes straight to voicemail. This doesn't happen all the time either, but I bet it's at least 30-40% of the time.Overall, I'm extremely disappointed and not at all happy to be stuck in yet another two year contract with a crappy, useless phone that is never there when I really need it. Either the battery is dead, I can't call out because it's stuck in some mysterious data call mode, or the stupid thing just doesn't ring or register my calls. However, at least if you buy it now, you'll save $100 over what I paid for it.",685,0 +686,"Is it Worth the Hype? + +In my opinion this phone should be a 2 1/2 stars but I am considering other people's opinions. I am doing this since I believe they are the kind of people who would be buying such a phone.Who is it for: It is for people who's first concern is the look and feel of the phone. This phone looks great, and it is not light, which makes it feel more luxurious (even though it is a tad too heavy even for that in my opinion).++++'s : Exceptional Look. Exceptional Feel to the touch. Clear screen. Easy Nokia menus. Bluetooth, Radio , and you know the stuff you would see on nokia's website.----'s:1- Buttons are too small, even for a small hand (it might not be the size of the buttons, but the how flush they are)2- Too expensive for the price it is being listed at ($650). This phone is not considered new any more (it was released in Europe around 3 months ago, and in Asia about 5 months ago). I would say a good price for this phone with all it's +'s and -'s is around $350 - $4003- Battery life is too short; hence they provide you with two!!!4- Radio reception is not that great.5- the internal antenna's position is somewhat awkward. The reason I bring this up is bec. in the manual it says you are not supposed to lay your fingers or hand where the antenna is. Yet this is the natural place you would hold the phone from!!!6- Even though it is a pretty phone, it can easily become an ugly one: FINGERPRINTS. The brushed steel the body of the phone is made off, clearly shows fingerprints, and it is not easy to clean up (you can clean it up it just takes longer than you would expect)In Summery: All I can say if you are looking for a gorgeous phone, and don't mind the price, or the short battery life, I will 100% recommend this phone to you, since I have checked the markets in the US, Europe, Asia and think this is by the far the nicest, and best constructed phone out there at the moment (12/2005). But on the other had if looks are not the only thing on your mind I would suggest making your own evaluation of the neg. points I made, and see what you think. Still at $400 I personally think this phone is a good buy, since I believe this phone will have a long life (not saying that to its batteries).Layth",686,0 +687,"Ehh... + +First day having it but seems like a sturdy case.

Cute colors and love the case shape but the buttons being pushed by themselves is an issue for me.",687,0 +688,"Almost a perfect case + +This is a great protective case. I purchased this case after viewing a youtube video of a guy throwing a Galaxy S3 encased in a Dualtek case across a stone bridge. Crazy...Here are the pluses:- Super clean plastic molding. No odd plastic molding pieces anywhere.- Made from very high quality soft touch plastic.- Nice grippy patterns molded to the sides of the case.- Nicely sized lip for screen protection.- Nicely sized cutout for USB port, headphone jack, and microphones.- Funky isolation design to protect from shock. Check youtube vids.- Funky silicon bumpers to protect phone from drops.- Very durable design without much added bulk.There are some minuses however:- Case is difficult to remove. This is a plus and a minus.- Buttons are non-tactile and a bit difficult to press.- Silicon bumpers pickup lint and dust.Overall, this is an excellent buy for $20. I've owned many phone cases and this case is one of the best.Note: I was able to make the buttons very tactile and easy to press by cutting small slits underneath the power and volume buttons. The case should be made with these slits in place.",688,0 +689,"Great performance and build quality for the price + +I got this phone for a little over 300 dollars and the more I use it the more I like it.===Software===I can't comment on the stock software since I almost immediately started flashing custom ROMs (highly recommended, not as dangerous as you might think). As far as that goes, the latest cyanogen mod is officially supported, and there's a great variety of other ROMs on XDA (I prefer PAC-man). I played around with the BRAVIA engine a bit before I flashed it away, and I wasn't too impressed. It pretty much just ups the contrast.===Color/Material/Build/Style===I got the black, which I'm very happy with. I haven't seen the white in person, but judging from the material used for the cover I'm thinking it would not look very good (much like an oreo cookie). The cover does not really inhibit fingerprints as claimed, but that's not a big deal for me. It gets cleaned off every time I put it in my pocket (along with the screen). It's a solid feeling phone and I very much like the silver accents for the buttons and around the headphone jack and camera. Unfortunately this was one of the last models before Sony started making the power button larger and more eye-catching. I noticed that the positioning of the buttons has gotten some negative press, but I actually prefer it. I don't exactly have small hands, but reaching all the way up on the phone when you're holding it from the bottom (supported with pinky) would be difficult. Sony made a good choice here.===Connectivity===***Supports Wimax (T-mobile 4G) up to 42 Mbps (if you can get it). This seems to be the fastest 4G support before needing LTE.***WiDi AKA Miracast is officially supported! The introduction of Chromecast kind of diminishes this, but it's still a great feature to have in my opinion. I look forward to trying it out when I get a WiDi box for my TV.***DLNA is also supported, can't comment, haven't tried it.***Has an FM Radio which is nice to see (although I probably won't use it).***GLONASS GPS! This is the russian GPS system which can be used to compliment the USA's GPS. What this means to you is almost instant GPS locks (outdoors). I'm very impressed with this.***It has NFC which is more useful than many people realize. Aside from exchanging info between phones, you can buy cheap NFC tags for home/work/car1/car2 that allow the phone to change various settings as soon as you touch the tag. Note: screen must be on for NFC to activate.===Screen===The size is about right I think. You really don't want a screen that's too big if you prefer using one hand, and 4.55"" is kind of pushing it. I find it acceptable though. The 720p 323ppi resolution is marvelous. I've done some comparison between this phone (regular TFT), an LG phone that I returned (IPS), and my old phone (AMOLED). My impression is as follows:***Screen hue in direct light: IPS (worst) < AMOLED < TFT (best)***Contrast with screen on: IPS (worst) < TFT < AMOLED (best by far)***Color vibrance: TFT (worst) < AMOLED < IPS (only slightly better than OLED)***Viewing angle: TFT (worst) < AMOLED, IPS (equal)Regardless of the color vibrance and viewing angle not being quite as good, I hardly ever try to view it from an angle where you can notice and the colors still look great to me. IPS was actually the most dissapointing in terms of eye-candy.===Battery===The battery is not removable, but this isn't actually a huge deal for me. I've never bought an aftermarket battery for any phone I've ever had. You can still force the phone to turn off by holding volume-up and power. 1850 mAh seems a little low compared to other high end phones, but I really think the software makes the most difference. Invest in Better Battery Stats to figure out which apps and services are draining your battery. Even with moderate usage every day I end up with a nice chunk of battery left when I got to bed. If you spend a couple hours on youtube you'll probably need to charge it sooner.===Camera===If you want to just count megapixels, 13 is pretty high for android phones these days. I'm personally more impressed with the dedicated shutter button and LED flash. Also, the 1.2 Mp front camera is a noteworthy improvement over VGA.===Performance===The biggest thing for me here is the 1GB RAM. If you're coming from a phone with 512MB this is going to make for *huge* reduction in lag. The CPU is also very powerful. It uses a snapdragon S4, which is top of the line in performance/Hz (as of writing this). As in the case with PCs, don't be fooled into just focusing on MHz or buying a quad core with less single thread performance. For reference, some other phones with the same CPU/GPU combo:***HTC One S/XL/X-AT&T;***Samsung Galaxy S3 (NA version)***LG Spectrum II 4G***Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1===Storage===I didn't really think I would appreciate the 16GB of internal storage since I already have a 32GB SD card, but it comes in very handy. It makes loading a bunch of ROMS at once very convenient without having to find space on your external SD. Also, android likes to clutter up your main storage card, so I can still keep my external SD clutter free and packed with even more music. Don't worry about fidling with ""USB storage mode"" or anything to transfer files on/off the internal or external card either. I think it uses MTP, so you plug it in and it just shows up in ""My Computer"".===Random cons===***Micro-SIM. Probably because it has to be inserted from the side. I have a feeling various sim card sizes are going start becoming the norm over the standard mini-SIM. I've invested in a nano-SIM punch cutter ($10).***The bluetooth/headphone volume is a bit low compared to my last phone (galaxy s 4g). This phone tends to get complaints about low volume in general.***The notification light is so dim it's basically useless. It's multi-colored though for what that's worth.",689,0 +690,"Not for the Iphone 4s + +I bought this product because i was looking for a simplistic iphone 4s case and as advertised it says it is for both iphone 4 and 4s but as i put it on my iphone 4s it was not at all a glide case in fact it is now stuck on my iphone 4s and i can not get it off.

I may use it in the States too after all it's unlocked! I would buy another one!",693,0 +694,"Well-designed update + +This is the latest version of the Powermat wireless charging system, first introduced in 2009. This package includes a two-position Powermat, a backup battery pack, and a case for an iPhone 4 or 4S.The Powermat itself is a thoughtful update of the original design. It is available in black or white. In order to keep the charging surface completely free of clutter, the charge indicator lights are on the bottom, located so they can reflect from the tabletop when a device is charging. There are two very high-tack strips on the bottom that keep the Powermat in place on any kind of clean hard surface; once you put in place, it will not easily budge from that position. The small power brick is designed so that you wrap the cord around the brick. All power supplies for portable devices should be this well designed.The portable backup battery is also well-designed. It includes a micro-USB plug and an Apple 30-pin plug, both of which fold into the body of the device. There is also an on/off switch, a four-LED power/power level indicator and a micro-USB jack. It is available in black or white.I drained my iPhone 4S completely to test the portable backup battery. It took about ten minutes to bring the phone back to life. This is comparable to using an AC adapter. After about a half-hour, it was at 24%, 45% at one hour, and 81% at two hours. I left it plugged in for another hour or so, but it stayed at 81%. If I had plugged it in at the low battery warning, it likely would have charged to 100% or close to it. The black top of the battery pack has numerous visible micro-scratches after just a couple of weeks of sitting on a side table. I suspect it will look fairly well-worn after being carried for a while in a pocket, purse, or backpack. If a portable device has a glossy surface, it should be made from a harder material than found here.The wireless case for iPhone 4/4S can be purchased separately or bundled with a Powermat in white or black. It is or will be available separately in black, white, pink, blue, green, red, and silver. The inside of the case has an Apple 30-pin connector and a micro-USB jack on the outside. It is bundled with a micro-USB plug to a Standard-A USB plug. This cable let you connect to your computer for synchronization without having to remove the case. The two-part case is joined by a flexible band. You slide the bottom 4/5 or so of the phone into the bottom of the case (pushing the 30-pin connector on the case into the jack on the phone as you do so). You then pull the top of the case forward onto the top of your phone.I had no problem aligning either the phone or the portable battery on the Powermat for charging. The Powermat attracts the case or battery magnetically and there are both visible and audible signals that they are aligned to charge. My phone charged up to 100% with no problem.While researching the Powermat, I came across the original Powermat for iPhone 3G/3GS on sale at 90% off (including a one-position original Powermat). When I received my iPhone 4S, I converted my iPhone 3G into what is essentially an iPod Touch. Since I usually forget to charge the older device, this seemed like good deal and a way to see if the new Powermat is backwards compatible with older cases. The older phone/case charged on the new Powermat with no problem. The only thing I noted is that the indicator light on the base never quit turns off completely; it got very dim and flickered, but never went out completely as it does on current-generation devices.Having the 3G/3GS and 4/4S cases side-by-side, it's easy to see that the newer case is a significant design advance. Both make the phone a little bit longer, but the older model has a bulge on the back which makes the phone a lot thicker.I have no problem recommending the Duracell Powermat CSA4B1 24-Hour Power System for iPhone 4/4S, but here's the thing: for a lot of us, iPhone cases are highly subjective. There are things we like and things we don't. I prefer a case that feels more ""grippy."" At the moment, I'm also using the Alarm Clock app while my phone is plugged into a charger overnight. For the screen to be visible, it needs stand on its right or left side. To be stable in this position, a case needs sharp edges to maximize contact with the nightstand. The rounded edges of the Powermat 4/4S case make it less stable than the case I've been using for the past several months. I'll be using the Powermat to charge my older phone (now basically an iPod Touch) and the backup battery.Duracell Powermat is a joint venture between Duracell and Powermat to use Powermat's technology and Duracell's marketing skills. GM has announced that Powermat chargers will be available on some of their models next year.",694,0 +695,"Seda hd Bluetooth headphones + +It was tough looking for a decent pair of headphones. I looked all around for a nice, sleek headset but wasn't able to find what I liked. I found these seda headphones and they work amazing with my daily work out routine. They don't fall off when I'm shooting hoops at the gym nor do they feel uncomfortable. They are amazing!",695,0 +696,"not bad for the price + +The first nokia 700 I bought had the touchscreen pulling away from the body of the phone so I had to return it (Amazon has great customer service). Now that I've had my phone for a while (on T-mobile USA), here are some random thoughts:I bought this because it was important for me to have physical call and end buttons. If answering/ending without buttons doesn't bother you, then I'd go with iphone/android. (I am aware that you can sort of answer/end calls with hardware buttons, but the solutions are more half-baked in my opinion).The size is fantastic for me, but I prefer compact devices in general. The keyboard in portrait orientation is OK if you have small fingers. But installing swype makes texting in portrait mode easy and convenient.The vibration mode is really weak and hard to feel.Battery life is good. I can get almost 48 hrs of normal use (mostly calls/few texts/limited web surfing), and maybe 24-36 hrs if I'm using the GPS. I don't watch video or listen to music on my phone. I lose about 0.5% every hour on standby. I do active power saving, though. I keep my phone on GSM mode with wifi off unless I need the 3G/wifi for web access (I find EDGE to be workable, though). Your mileage will vary, of course. The options for turning on and off the network mode, wifi, bluetooth etc are so easy and fast that I prefer just keeping everything off unless I need something specific, to reduce power consumption.You can charge by micro USB in theory. But in practice, several of my previous microUSB chargers simply will not charge my phone, especially car chargers. I had to buy specific a nokia 700 charger (non-USB) for my car. I have found that most plug in USB sockets will work, though (the ones where you have to supply your own USB cord to insert in one end of the charger).The offline GPS is fantastic. Fast GPS lock, turn-by-turn navigation, all without using up data. Nokia maps is OK, but you need data access for the maps program to find some local things (e.g. fast food places) that aren't already in the offline database.One bothersome thing is that my remote locking feature simply does not work (i.e. you send a text with a pre-defined message to lock your phone if you misplace it, for example), so I have to keep my screen locked. This wouldn't be a problem normally, except when driving you're unable to use the phone then except by looking at it and using the touchscreen to unlock the screen (which I won't do). This wouldn't also be an issue, but you can't use voice commands unless the screen is unlocked as well. At least you can answer calls though. If you're on bluetooth, then this won't matter.That brings me to voice commands (initiate by long press of the call button). ugh. My old old samsung flip phone had far better voice recognition than this device. I can sort of make it work by using a fake robot voice with a pseudo-british accent. annoying but livable.The proximity sensor is good; no more face hanging up like I had with the iphone.The app situation is pathetic at best compared to android/apple. If you're an apps person, I would not recommend this phone (the OS is Nokia -formerly Symbian- Belle). You can see the available apps at the Nokia Store, and choose the correct phone. You'll see what I mean. If you can find the apps that you need for the 700, then this of course isn't an issue.The camera is adequate at best. I like having a physical shutter button. With fixed focus, anything closer than about 2 feet gets really blurred.Summary, if you want a very compact phone to use as a phone, that also has nice web access and great GPS, this will work well and is a great deal at about $200, carrier unlocked.Hope this helps",696,0 +697,"Good for the price + +For under $4 case feels sturdy, keyboard opens and reclines fully (HTC Arrive), nice grip, snapped on in an instance and so far holds well. Access to all buttons is adequate and actually it ""smooths"" very annoying HTC Arrive quality - volume rocker is too light and is not locked when phone screen is locked, so volume can unintentionally be changed very easily. This case helps to avoid it (case is quite thick)(Just note - there is no screen protector, but front part of the case raised well above the screen to help avoid scratches when laying flat.",697,0 +698,"You get what you pay for... + +I purchased this same starter kit off eBay. First off, the case is very poorly constructed. I couldn't even get my phone to fit into it! I slowly tried to maneuver it in and there was no possible way for me to fit the phone in without damaging the case. The headset is a lot quieter than the one included with the phone and a lot less comfortable. The bud that fits in your ear isn't covered in rubber like the OEM headset -- it's completely plastic so it feels a bit uncomfortable. The only remotely worthwhile part of this set is the charger, but even that's less than perfect. For example, there's a ""Car"" setting that should automatically turn on when you plug the phone into a car charger. I don't know what it is with this charger, but it doesn't trigger it at all, so if you want your ring to change when you plug it into this charger, you have to manually change it. Even if you don't care about the ring, the charger itself doesn't last very long. I had mine for maybe a month or two and then I started having problems with it. I had to jiggle the plug after it was plugged in for it to even trigger a charge. Even then, when I put the phone down, any slight movement of the phone, charger cord, or plug and the charging would be interrupted. I at first thought it was the socket where the charger plugged into, but my phone charges fine with my OEM charger at home.If you're willing to dish out the money on this starter kit, I would suggest that you just spend a little more and get the OEM items. I've bought plenty of generic cell phone accessories for past cell phones and most of them have worked fine, but I guess it has just been harder for the accessory companies to make quality products for this phone.",698,0 +699,"Exceeding Expectations + +I purchased this case for my wife. She loves the case and it offers the protection we were looking for. After placing the case on the phone my wife decided to remove the case to install a protective screen. When doing this she used excessive force and broke the case. I contacted the seller and they immediately shipped out a new case, at no additional cost, and also supplied a tool to help remove the case easily in the future. Definately a 5 star seller.",699,0 +700,"Superb Droid tablet + +Bought it yesterday without a contract. Cannot describe how good the Samsung Galaxy Tab really is! For all of those who were patiently waiting for an iPad-like device that runs Froyo 2.2, this is a winner. I have it on my home WiFi network and the internet download speeds are fast. My Droid Incredible will download the same pages slightly faster, but the difference is neglible. The stock browser is fine. It does not center the text nicley like Incredible does when I pinch in and out. Otherwise, it works well and is nicely laid out.All the Apps so far run fine and look great. I put Advanced Task Killer on the tablet. Interestingly, when I activate the Task Killer, very few apps get killed (single digits). With the (non-rooted) Incredible usually 30-40+ apps get the axe. I would surmise that Samsung put far less Bloatware on the this device than I have seen with other Droids.I read the review on Gizmodo before buying the device. Not sure what was going on with the Gizmodo reviewer. There are several possibilities: 1. They were having a psychotic break. 2. They are an employee of Apple. 3. They are new to Android and not the sharpest tool in the shed. The only thing that was correct in the review was the power supply is a bit unusual.I have an Apple iPhone (that I just replaced with my Droid phone secondary to poor reception), an iTouch, iPods and a Mac Book.

Presumably, this is the U8800-51. There is little difference in Android phones. They are all the same Chinese schlock. A couple of things you should know:There are phones being sold with four different versions of Android; <2.2, 2.2 (""Froyo""), 2.3 (""Gingerbread"") and 4.0 (""Ice Cream Sandwich""). This phone runs on Froyo which will run 99% of Google apps. One downside to this phone is that it is probably cannot be upgraded to Gingerbread. For the VAST number of users that will be irrelevant.If you want access to the Google apps market (most of which is free), browse, use email - great. This is also a good media player (audio and video). Oh and it actually makes and receives phone calls too. I am a cord cutter and this is terrific communicator. It plays very well with my bluetooth headset and has a good speaker as well. The camera is good - not great. While it is 5 megapixel, the lens is very wide angle. The digital zoom erodes picture quality.

The important part however is that it protects my phone from all sorts of accidents. The case is tough and seemingly well designed. I'll update the review if I notice any design flaws. The flap for the USB is a bit small so really thick usb plugs will have a hard time getting in. My Anker Slim2 charger's built in cable no longer fits the phone as a result, which is kind of annoying, but I just carry a short USB cable that I use instead.

When I turned the iPad off, the speaker went into a sleep mode.The only issue I've had so far is that it won't link to my iPhone 4. I'm going to do some more research on that.

The previous products that I have used from iSmooth typically have been ""fitted"" to the screen but this one is a bit different due to the nature of how the HTC One phone is. My other devices were an all glass front (Samsung Note 2, S4, iPhone 4 & 5, etc) which means the fitted screen protectors wrap around the cameras, sensors, etc. Since the HTC has the metal bands on the front with those sensors, these are rectangular so the install of these is actually easier than on my other devices.PROS:* Smooth, easy install with little to no ""bubbles"" to squish out* Very resistant to scratches, crystal clear, and does not peel off unless you want it to...unlike that soft, gooey type that peels off after a month.* Great customer service and fast emailed responses to questions/concerns.* I LOVE the ""Dust Removal"" stickers! I know that tape does the same thing, but these are made with a different texture and I can actually PUSH these in from the side or corners to get the dust spots out without having to peel the screen protector up! I have yet to do this with tape!CONS:* There is no gum in the package like the old baseball trading card packs. ;-PThank you for another great experience iSmooth!",720,0 +721,"Case is great now + +Ok I had to re-evaluate my review.

I don't use the antenna anymore because of that but with my other phones this made a huge difference.",722,0 +723,"Great Phone For the Price! + +I was looking for a Android phone, but I didn't want to spend $300 more for one. I paid $116 for this phone and for all the features this phone has that was a great price. The description of this phone says the screen size is 3.1"" that is not true, but I knew that before I purchased it by reading the reviews. The total screen size is 2 1/2 x 2"" and the size of the phone is 4 1/4 x 2 1/4. Of course the screen size on this phone is not as large as the HTC Evo or I phone, but it suits me very well. I wasn't expecting everything that you can do with this phone, so I was pleasantly surprised. You can set up you email accounts and the phone will alert you to when you have new messages. There is a gps that works pretty well even though the screen is small. You can download apps for the android market. I haven't downloaded but a few and so far I have had no problems. I saw one review that said Angry Birds did not work for this phone because of the screen size, but I have no desire to play it on a screen this small. I have downloaded UNO and it works pretty well. The graphic of the screen are descent and the colors are bright. The camera is not the best but it is not bad. Pictures look best when you take them in bright light and are still. You can view pdf documents and make them larger. Of course you have to move them around on the screen to see the whole document. Calls are clear and the ringers are very loud. The speaker phone is descent also. You can hear the person you are talking to really well and they could hear me... so that was a plus. One of my favorite things about this phone is I can say ""call Jackie"" and it dials the number for me! You can also say something like ""directions to Nashville, TN"" and it pulls up the directions! The keys are really small, but surprisingly input is pretty accurate. This phone has the 'Swype' input system so that makes it really easy to type a text message. Swype is an entry method where you place your finger on the first letter of the word you are typing and just slide it from letter to letter. It works pretty well. All in all I highly recommend this phone to anyone who does not want to dish out over $200.

I still have people complain they can't hear me occasially (rarely though) and I have to shove the thing in my ear and make sure it's sitting straight for optimal performance.

First, they are too thick, forcing me to use a filler under the home button to bring it to screen level, second, the margins around the screen are off, covering the entire aluminium casing. Third, the plastic bezel surrounding the glass digitizer isn't properly adhered to the glass causing it to come loose and prevent the digitizer from seating to the case well.In addition to the build of these parts, several of the screens didn't work at all. One had a bad LCD and another had a cut ribbon cable. There are several other options for this screen from other sellers that are much better quality and about the same price.

Use the spray bottle to wet your fingers and BOTH sides of the screen protector. This prevents fingerprints, and makes precise positioning way easier than a conventional adhesive protector; you can slide the cover into exactly the right spot before squeezing out bubbles and excess fluid.Manufacturer recommends leaving phone off for 12-24-hours.

I already had experience with the Plantronics 640E but wanted something with A2DP (wireless music) support. The Voyager 855 fit the description perfectly. I was slightly hesitant though since people had gripes about the sound quality. I'l break down my view into two parts.Voice Quality in a call:The voice quality is decent enough...its as you would expect from a cell phone. That's to say it's about the same as talking directly on the cell phone, but you're not gonna get clarity like a land line. For most environments it does well and I think the extendable boom helps with that a LOT. I did a series of tests to hear how clearly my voice would sound with intereference. One test involved standing in front of a fan while the other involved playing loud background music. The results were both the same. While the BT unit did not cancel out the background noise, it did a great job of still keeping my voice clear despite the distracting wind noise and background music. Not bad!Sound quality of A2DP:I have to strongly disagree with some reviewers that the stereo sound quality isn't up to par. I suppose it depends on a few factors though. First, which type of ear buds do you use? The black foam ones or the clear silicone ones? The black ones invariably produce better sound since they act like foam earplugs (they also don't irritate my ears like the silicone ones). The silicone ones allow more ambient noise to seep in. The second factor is the audio source. For example, on the default setting on my Sony Ericsson P1i, the music sounded ok. As many people have mentioned, this BT headset seems to lack in bass. However I have to disagree. This unit is capable of reproducing the richest bass. All I had to do is tweak the EQ of my P1i from ""Normal"" to ""Rock"" and immediately there was a superb difference. The headphones were able to reproduce very rich and deep bass without cracking. And even the mids and highs were surprising since I was hearing some things I had never noticed in some songs. I am very pleased with this and plan on using it with my notebook. By the way, did I mention this unit does Multipoint AND also allows stereo phone conversations. It has a good battery life too. All in all for it's price its a great deal.Some Cons:I don't like the ear hook so much. It kind of forces the BT unit to stick outward a bit instead of sticking flush against your cheek. Another issue that warrants further investigation is that if you are in an area with a lot of interference, the A2DP might be intermittent.",750,0 +751,"Very Pleased + +The 2-in-one table is a blast for the kids and us adults. :) I had to deal with the seller on this purchase and they were a joy to work with.

Try it- it will work for you too !Nextel and Motorola have developed the ultimate ""ultra cool, super sleek, power attitude, I am the man / I am the woman, great phone w/the i860. Not only does it have consistent great sound quality on calls, but the ability to quickly contact other Nextel friends or relatives with a single push of the Direct Connect button makes other phones ""just another phone"".**By the way, the Direct Connect (2 way radio) is usable in FULLY PRIVATE mode by simply pressing 1 button.

There is plenty for a few business cards, a reasonable amount of cash. and some plastic cards, but if you carry around large amounts of cash or receipts and such, you're going to find yourself short on cash.

You must be careful to orient your cards magnetic strips away from the magnetic latch. Not too hard, just a small inconvenience to remember.Also, the seams around the I.D. viewing window leave marks on my screen. They wipe off, but made me nervous the first time I saw them!

The fit and finish are perfect, and I love the look and feel of the matte black. They completely changed my mind on what the quality of TPU cases could be. I've now been using Diztronic cases for over two years with more than a dozen different devices. I've used a few other cases here and there, but I always come back to Diztronic. For those looking for a low profile case, they're the best out there. The only downside was that there wasn't much protection in a fall, because a thin case can only do so much to absorb the impact. But I've never been one to drop my devices, and I value thinness and pocketability in a case immensely, so it wasn't ever a problem. They were perfect for what I wanted in a case.After I received my Galaxy S5, I went to purchase a Diztronic case. But along with the traditional case, I saw the Ultra case. The same great fit and finish I've enjoyed for years with better protection in case of a drop? I immediately placed an order. It only took seconds after receiving it to know that I had made the right choice. It's a little bit thicker than their traditional case with slightly raised corners to help absorb the impact in a fall, but it still feels like a Diztronic case. They were able to take what I thought was already the perfect TPU case and make it even better.One issue specific to the S5 that this case handles wonderfully - the microUSB 3.0 port flap. Two different cases came with my Galaxy S5. They were ok, but there was a big problem with both of them - the cutout at the bottom of the phone wasn't large enough to be able to open the port easily. Not only that, but they pressed the flap into the charger, placing too much pressure on both. There's no such problem with the Diztronic Ultra case. The opening is large enough to be able to easily open the port and not worry about extra pressure on it while charging.If you're in the market for a low profile case that fits and feels much better than your run-of-the-mill TPU case, but also one that offers a little extra protection, I can't recommend the Diztronic Ultra enough.",759,0 +760,"I got it what I paid for + +I have been buying worldwide along the last five years and this is my first disappointing experience.

Your pick, better color or sharper picture. Sense interface: It just makes sense! It rings louder when it's in your pocket, you can silence the ringer at a meeting instantly by setting it face down, the web browser re-wraps text when you zoom in on web pages (I'm unaware of any other phone browser that does this) which is a HUGE plus for me (on most phones, the text is either too small or doesn't fit on the screen. This phone solves that). The camera really can replace a digital point and shoot (you know the kind, the little pocket ones)...the camera really IS that good.Cons: Here's the really big one: This phone is cancelled already! They are only selling what is left in stock. There are very few accessories that fit this phone. It's notably heavier than the Galaxy S2. Some users report that the back cover gets squeaky over time. The buttons on the bottom light up which bleeds into the screen at the bottom when you view something dark. The battery life on this is about half that of the Galaxy S2 (when I got it, it would make it about 9-10 hours on a charge.

It's an average phone if you look at the specs. It's because the phone allows average people to afford a quality smart phone with an affordable plan. I switched from the OG Droid on Verizon to the Exhibit II on T-Mobile two months ago, and I couldn't be more pleased.Mobile phone companies in the U.S. have been fleecing the public with smart phone plans for years. The Samsung Exhibit II 4G, along with T-Mobile's $49.99 ""all you can eat"" plans (available in both contract and prepaid flavors depending on your preference), represents a milestone that should change the industry, if only more people knew about it.First of all, make no mistake: this is a solid mid-level Android phone at a bargain-basement price. Great screen, great touch screen response, good performance. It's rootable, so you can remove the bloatware (XDA Developers is a great resource -- Google ""XDA Developers Samsung Exhibit II 4G root"". Once you're rooted, download ""Root Uninstaller"" from the Market and follow XDA's advice about which apps to remove).Let me briefly tell you our story. My wife and I bought Motorola Droids a few years ago for $250 each (2 year contract price!), then paid Verizon $170/month for a family plan with 1400 minutes, data, and text messaging. When it came time to upgrade, we felt that was too much money, downgraded to feature phones (bought from eBay), and started paying $110/month for 1400 minutes, text messaging, and no data.Fast forward to a couple of months ago. Thanks to this product we were able to buy two very good Android phones on Amazon for under $200 each. Brand new, full price, no contract. We are now paying $100/month combined for unlimited talk, unlimited text, and unlimited data. Yes, Verizon's network is better in rural areas. But if you think about it, who needs to pay $1700 extra over the course of a 2 year contract so you have coverage that one day or one week per year you're in BFE? In reality, very few people.But that's not all. Even if you're in BFE, Wi-Fi is ubiquitous. Many campgrounds have it, all McDonalds in the U.S. have it, etc. This is good news because the Exhibit II comes with T-Mobile's fantastic ""Wi-Fi Calling"" feature. This means you can use your phone anywhere in the world with Wi-Fi without paying roaming charges. Or, within old metallic office buildings with Wi-Fi where no cell phones from any provider work. Even Verizon can't beat that. I'm telling you, it works wonderfully. IMO, Verizon's admittedly superior wireless network is not worth anything close to $70/month more than T-Mobile's for the vast majority of users, especially when you factor in Wi-Fi calling. Your priorities may vary.In short, this is the best value in cell phones today. You get a mid-level Android phone without a contract for under $200. You get a plan that lets you use its full potential for only $50/month, from a legitimate national provider. You get this for less than many smart phones cost with a 2-year contract.I applaud T-Mobile and Samsung for producing a high-quality offering that makes smart phones accessible and affordable to average people.

When Otterbox finally released the Defender case, I jumped on it immediately. At first I was disappointed. While the hard shell fit perfectly, the silicon outer shell didn't fit well at all. It left a huge gap at the bottom of the phone where the buttons are which I just knew would eventually fill up with grit and dirt, damaging the phone more than protecting it. Eventually though, with a little bit of manipulation and time to let it settle, the silicon layer has shrunk and layed down flat, and I'm perfectly satisfied with it. I have to admit, while it adds a good bit of heft to the phone, this case is bomb proof. My phone takes a lot of abuse during my daily routine, and this case takes it all without flinching. I especially like the locking feature on the holster clip that allows you to lock the clip open until you get it around whatever it is you're trying to clip it to. The access plugs were clumsy and loose at first, but now fit well and are easy to open and close. I guess the silicon just has to have time to adapt.

IF YOU BUY THIS CASE YOU WILL LOVE IT.",788,0 +789,"Great little phone + +I bought this phone for my 15 yr old daughter and it arrived today. I messed around with it for about 2 hours, going through all the settings and features.It seems durable and is a cute little phone, especially for a teen girl.. it is accented with lavender/pink afterall.Call quality is great so far and all features work as expected.When closed, it is a somewhat smaller phone than I am used to. It is a little shorter, but a tad wider. I didn't find this to be a downfall though - just pointing it out. (My current phone is a Nokia E71x). At first I thought it would be awkward when talking since it is smaller, but it isn't at all.The screen is a nice size and is vibrant and clear. It seems like the screen is made of glass, although I didn't look it up to see for sure. The screen on the Pantech is bigger than the screen on my Nokia.The touchscreen is very responsive and quick. I did find though that it doesn't acknowledge the touches with my fingernails.. I have really long nails. So I had to use my pointer finger knuckle. It is something I am used to doing though for my microwave and pretty much anything that has a touch screen.. so again not a downfall, just something to mention.The touchscreen works sort of like an iPod touch in that it has the ""slide"" feature for going through the screens, images, etc. Also when you get a text, you ""slide"" to open the text .. just like the ""unlock"" screen on an iPod touch.. it will have the slider icon labeled ""Open.""There are dedicated menu icons for Facebook, Twitter, etc. We know the kids can't go without Facebook!! lolIt has a few neat games pre installed as well as some apps. There is a decent selection of ringtones, alarm, etc and background themes.The keys on the QWERTY pad are decent sized too. We were afraid they would be super tiny like on my Nokia. The Pantech is nice and easy to type on. The keys seem sort of cushioned and are easy to press.Back to texting, one thing to mention as well is that when deleting texts, there seems to be an extra step involved. When you have a text open and touch on the screen to delete it, it will ask you to select the text (which is right there) and then click delete again. I am used to hitting delete, then confirming yes or no and it is gone (deleted). With the Pantech, you have the text open, hit delete, then have to hit the text and then hit delete again. This again may be something which won't matter to some people, but other people like to have things as simplified as possible. It just sort of irked me since it is an extra step than what I am used to. Of course once you are used to the phone, you won't even notice.. you'll just click out of habit and do what you need to.The camera works as expected for a 2MP cellphone cam. It does have decent amount of settings and options to use with it. My only complaint with the camera is that there is a delay between pressing to take the picture and when it actually takes it. Whatever you are taking the picture of, has to remain still for a few seconds after clicking to take the picture or you will end up with whatever pose or movement was made AFTER clicking. The pictures do look pretty good though, as long as you are not trying to shoot from more than a few feet away, and that is to be expected. (My Nokia has no delay at all. Honestly, I think Nokia phones have the best cams out there as far as cell phone cams. I take pics with mine all the time and people can't believe they are cellphone pics)Like I said, we have only had it for a day so far, but it seems to be a great little phone. It feels durable, but not extremely bulky. It is perfect sized. It has the right ratio of screen/touch area size as well as ample sized QWERTY pad. The call quality is great so far - everything sounds clear and crisp with no background noise interruption.The only thing I can think of so far that *might* be a downfall to some is the fact that the memory card goes behind the back cover, with the battery. I like easy access to my memory card right on the body of the phone, but this would not be a deal breaker for me since the phone seems so nice and neat otherwise.I will update as time goes on if we run into any problems with this phone or come across anything that seems like it's worth mentioning - good or bad.",789,0 +790,"Too quirky...problems with charging iPhone 4s + +Lots of power available with 4 D batteries, which is why I bought this.

I originally had one for my 3G, then my 4S and now my 5C. On this latest one it seems as if they have skimped out on the thickness of the inner plastic housing. It just doesn't feel as substantial as prior models. Once the rubber outer skin is on you do not notice it, but it was a bit disconcerting when I immediately opened the package.On the 5c model I feel they got lazy when designing it. Unlike prior models where the home button was surrounded and covered by the plastic/rubber skin, it is totally open on this model. It is clear that otterbox did not design the front screen protector with the 5c in mind. The screen protector just has an open round hole for the home button, for which I assume is supposed to allow those who have the 5S to be able to still use their fingerprint scanner, except this phone doesn't have that feature! So now there are open spots where dust/dirt/grime can enter and collect UNDER the screen protector. The same goes for the top light sensor/call speaker, it is no longer encased or molded into the plastic skeleton, instead just an open hole cut into the screen protector.I am severely disappointed in the production of case... I am still debating whether I keep it or not. I purchase Otterbox's because of their reputation of quality and engineering that goes into their cases, or at least used to.

The phone is a bit overwhelming for me until I figure out all the features but I have discovered one thing that I certainly don't like.One of the features I really wanted was the ability to connect to my home network (cutting down on my Data Plan usage). I am used to connecting to a laptop with wireless etc. by enabling the SSID for the router. The laptop/desktop etc. remembers the connection and I can disable the SSID on the router and continue to connect forever with that laptop/desktop.Not so with the Infusion 4G. If the SSID isn't constantly on enabled you get the message ""(network name),Not in range,Secured WPA/WPA2 etc. etc."" even though it has the security key to connect. As soon as you change the router SSID to disabled, the phone can't see it.I tried Samsung support and they said ""oh, it's ok, just leave the router SSID enabled"".In other words security of my home network isn't on thier priority list with this phone.Just a ""Heads-Up"" if you think it stays connected.UPDATE 8/3/2011:After trying Samsung support (which was no help with the SSID fiasco I mentioned), I have been all over the web searching for an answer to that problem.I have to admit that I was WRONG in my earlier review about not being able to use the phone on home wireless without leaving the SSID enabled, there is a way to connect with the SSID disabled.I am very impressed with this phone now that I understand it better by spending hours researching,etc., so I changed my rating to 5 star!IMHO the phone is great but samsung support is lacking.",801,1 +802,"initial units defective -- very poor audio quality; replaced with newer units that fixed audio problems + +I purchased 2 CallPod Dragon headsets from another online vendor that sells them here through Amazon. The product has an excellent feature set, nice form factor, and the attraction of being able to operate headset-to-headset (intercom mode) without any cellphone in between. The latter was the primary reason for purchase.Unfortunately in testing the 2 units over multiple weeks, the audio quality in all settings was very poor. In intercom mode (device-to-device), there was a significant humming noise that was loud enough to be distracting. I intended to use the intercom feature in a quiet clinical setting where voice quality needs to be clear and intelligible at all times. Unfortunately the Dragon headsets didn't live up to expectations, and since this was the primary intended use mode this was a great disappointment.When used as a regular handsfree headset with a cellphone while driving on the freeway, the audio quality on the call-receiver's end was so muffled and occasionally garbled as to be nearly unintelligible they told me. I tried both Dragon headsets with the same cellphone in the same location back-to-back with similar results. The person on the other end actually insisted I hang up and switch to my regular bluetooth headset -- a Plantronics Voyager 510 -- which was crystal clear in comparison.I called the Callpod folks to find out what the issue might be. They suggested making sure both units were fully charged in order to reduce noise issues. Repeated charging cycles didn't improve things. I also upgraded the firmware in both devices (using their website download) without significant effect.Since the reviews I've seen across the internet range from ""excellent audio"" to describing similar general audio clarity problems, I wonder if Callpod just has a high defect rate with these units. While this wasn't a scientific, controlled test by any means, I certainly expected these to perform better out of the box and the fact that 2 units exhibited similar issues sealed it. I returned both units.I hope Callpod resolves the issues with the Dragon. It's great on features, design & upgradability and the intercom is a killer addition, but this product unfortunately performed poorly.[UPDATE June 20, 2008....]I confirmed directly with the manufacturer that my initial 2 units were defective, resulting in the very poor audio quality. The manufacturer apparently had a number of bad units early on -- supposedly the manufacturing problem is fixed.On contacting the company directly, Callpod graciously offered to ship out a couple newer headsets to demo, and with these I was able to confirm the worst of the audio issues appear to be fixed. I haven't tested extensively with cell phone use, since my application is exclusively using the headset-to-headset calling feature. In this mode, the sound quality is now quite good with very little of the annoying noise experienced with the original units.In the interim, had a chance to test the SoundID headset which also offers a headset-to-headset call mode. The Callpod Dragon headset with fixed audio wins hands down. The build quality on the Callpod headset is significantly better than the SoundID, the audio quality of the SoundID headsets was extremely tinny headset-to-headset, and the Callpod Dragon headsets provide a much more secure fit to the ear.So (if Amazon let you) I'd bump the Dragon headset up a star [from 2 to 3 stars] based on these new units. I'd give it 4 stars for my particular application -- headset-to-headset use. Importantly, kudos to the company for being very responsive upon receiving direct customer feedback and going out of their way to provide a good customer service experience.",802,0 +803,"not happy + +Not happy battery died after one month almost to the hour .if I got a defective battery then mabe the seller will give me a better one ?I will give a better review but I'm beting not .I have it on a charger just to write this.the battery got excessively hot just before it died .not happy!",803,0 +804,"Great Battery Case but... + +If it weren't for one problem I would give this case 5 stars.

I can even play some 3D games on the phone. Bonus. The speaker is loud and clear, the OS is not loaded with too much bloatware, and ICS is a robust, lean OS. It's way better than any of the Android 2.X operating systems.Also, the phone is durable. I've dropped it many times, and instead of looking like a shattered, useless brick like some other phones, ahem...It sustains the impact and keeps on working.My biggest gripe with this phone is the Camera.

As I was running, my iPhone popped out of my brand new holder and, because a case isn't necessary, which is the big selling point on this thing, as I remember, the glass of my phone cracked badly. The phone still responds to touch, but it's hard to see anything. This phone didn't have so much as a scratch before I bought the phone clip and now it's severely damaged. If you're going to advertise this phone clip to hold someone's phone without a protective case, you'd think that the clip holding it in place is trustworthy...at least that's what I thought.I'd like something to be done about this.

All parts and accessories come in a very nice, rugged plastic case with the headset nicely displayed at the top. It took a few minutes to carefully remove the headset from the display case....it felt like I was going to break it a few times. I would just carefully cut all of the retaining rubber bands if I had to do it all over again.It took 2 hrs 15 min to fully charge the headset the very first time (it seemed like too long of a wait before I could play with this new toy). I charged the headset via my laptop computer using the provided USB cable. I assume it would have taken just as long if I had used the AC to USB wall charger instead. Pairing up with my Nokia N80 mobile phone was simple and quick. Just follow the provided instructions.Next came time to customize the fit of the headset to my ear. The headset comes with 2-left & 2-right earloops, and 4 earbuds. After about 30 minutes of trying every different combination of earloop and earbuds I was able to find one that sort of works. I consider myself as having pretty normal shaped ears, and the combination that I found really is not that great. The headset has to fit pretty much perfectly (with the voice activity sensor touching your cheek), otherwise the person on the other end of you call will not hear you properly. And this is why I only give this headset 3 stars. The fit is an issue, and it feels like the headset wants to fall off of my ear every few minutes. I have it installed properly on my ear, but it still happens. A co-worker bought the same headset and is having similar fit problems also.When the headset is fitting properly to my cheek, the audio is great, and the noise cancelling ability lets your caller actually hear you better and louder. There are many other bells and whistles that make this headset a fun little toy.....6 hrs talk time, 120 hrs standby, last number redial, volume control, rejecting calls, and voice dialing.In conclusion, this headset is good, but there could be more improvement in the fit aspects.....and that to me is extremely important.I'm still undecided on if I'll return this headset or not for a Plantronics headset, I have a few more days to decide.-David",818,0 +819,"$15.00 bargain price + +15 bucks isn't much to spend for a product that works this well.I haven't experienced signal loss or static noise on line.The earpiece produces sound at a higher volume than ever achieved by cell phone alone.NO dropped calls....recommended.",819,0 +820,"I'm unhappy + +I ordered this case, excited to get it!

The bezel keeps the phone's glass from touching other surfaces. The buttons respond well. All of the necessary holes are in place. The material seems rugged. There is some extra thickness along the edge that will give more protection to the vulnerable edges of the phone. The case has a matte finish and is easy to grip. The card slot easily holds three cards, and could probably be stretched to hold four. The hole around the camera has a matte black finish so the camera flash will not reflect into your pictures. Fits in easily in front or back pockets",821,0 +822,"Another quality Siedio addition + +I'm a huge fan of Siedio Cases. I was that guy who always laughed at people who bought cases for their phones, especially those buying the expensive $30 - $50+ cases. (I still laugh at those who spend $50+ actually...) Then I decided to try a few of the crummy dirt cheap silicone cases you see in the $5-$8 range and found them to be utter junk. Too much cheap silicone/rubber that makes the phone stick to the inside of your pants pocket, doesn't do much to protect the phone from a hard fall, etc. Finally I decided to try Siedio because I wanted to see what a really high quality case would be like, and loved the idea of the kickstand too.This is now my fourth Siedio case purchase, but my first SURFACE model. I previously have owned only their ACTIVE line of cases for the Galaxy S2, S3 and Note 2. Those are steller cases with wonderful protection for hard falls in that they have an inner silicone sleeve and an external hard plastic shell, so it's not too difficult to remove from a tight pocket and yes, I love the kickstand. I decided to switch to this Surface model because I realized that I've never really dropped my phone anyway (worst time was maybe it sliding off my lap when getting out of the car or something, a 3ft fall) and as much as I liked the silicone sleeve for that protection, I thought I'd go without so that the case could be a bit slimmer and that much easier to remove from my pockets. It's a trade-off. Great protection but slightly thicker and less easy to remove from a pocket or Good protection that's thinner and easier to remove from a pocket?So far I'm pleased with my decision. The case looks and feels great. In fact the Surface model looks just a tad bit more professional than the Active style case anyway, and it does have a tiny bit of felt-like material inside the cushion the phone a bit from a fall (not as well as the Active, but still good) And of course I still LOVE the magnetic kickstand, which does not impair NFC functionality either. All he holes in the case line up great, it's as thin as any other case out there on the market and again, it looks very trim and professional.If there was any complaint, it's that I wish these were a bit cheaper. I don't feel ripped off by any stretch, and I happily paid the ~$30 for this one because it is worth it, and lord knows there are far more expensive cases out there that are NOT as good as this one, but $30 for plastic and a bit of metal always feels a little pricy. That's the reality if you want a good case however.",822,0 +823,"Terrible + +As on as I opened the product, I charged it up.

I knew I could return this if anything was wrong (benefits of buying from a reputable store like Amazon).Well I'm happy to report that I've used this unit for over 6 months now and it has been trouble free. Yes the USB ports are crooked, the LED indicators are inaccurate, and the plastic creaks a bit if you press on it. But does that take away from the product? No.I've used this to charge my phone many times, used on numerous road trips charging multiple phones (even 3 phones by using a hub). So far I've had no issues with lost capacity and seems I can indeed get more than 3-4 full charges from this device.Only the drawbacks I can see are the LED indicators seem to drop to 2 LEDs (out of 4) over non-use, but seem to have a full ability to produce 3-4 charges still. Also the glossy finish is an annoying fingerprint magnet--a matte finish would look better and offer better grip. If Zagg could improve this I would say at least fix the LEDs and allow both USB ports to delivery at least 1A each (only one delivers 2A--for iPad use--while the other only delivers 500mA).Short version: after 6 months of use, the ZaggSparq still works great.

This is my first Bluetooth headset, so please take that into account when reading my review.It is easy to setup, and worked great with my Palm Centro right off the bat. I bought a new pack of AAA rechargeable batteries to go along with it (note that a previous reviewer mentions that the item uses AAA batteries).Much to my surprise, the headset does NOT use AAA batteries. It uses AAAA, which I had never seen. They look the same as AAA, but they are just a bit smaller. I can't find any rechargeable versions, and the regular AAAA batteries aren't exactly available at your convenience store. This is a huge downside for me - I'm not a big fan of having to buy batteries over and over.The headset has started emitting strange beeps during my calls, which sound like there is an incoming call, but there is not. This has been occurring once every few minutes, and is very annoying. Also, the LED is fairly useless on the item - there isn't a quick way to tell if it is on or not.The clarity and quality of the sound is fine, for both ends of the call. My wife couldn't even tell if I was on the headset or using the phone directly. And the range is quite good in my opinion; I can leave the phone on my kitchen island, and the headset works fine throughout my living room, kitchen, dining room, and office. As a general rule, as long as you are in the same room as the phone, the headset will work - very nice!In summary, I certainly wouldn't buy this headset again (even for the new $9.99 low price on Amazon ... the rule of ""you get what you pay for"" hold true). I have a feeling this one will either wind up in the garbage, or maybe I'll donate it to someone with one of those Star Trek Christmas trees as a new ornament (looks like something the Borg would wear, after all).

Here's a laundry list of faults and problems that made me want to smash the phone every single day that I had it.- Slow as hell. Not only was it slow to respond to screen taps, It was also exceedingly slow at doing any basic task. Hell, it couldn't even play back a midi ring tone properly when the phone rang! It would be played in bursts as the phone lagged to keep up. Sometimes it would not respond to screen taps, so you tap a few more times. Then, it randomly decides to respond, and registers clicks all at once.- Unstable like a Mental Patient. I had to remove the battery at least twice a day because the phone would freeze.- Inaccurate touch response (even when calibrated with the calibration tool) This was by far the most maddening problem. When I would try to use the phone, it would put my click anywhere but where my fingers landed. Texting eventually became impossible because it would never get it right. Even worse, when I would try to unlock the keypad, it would often take over 100 taps on the screen just to get it to respond and unlock the keys.- Buggy texting software. Just chock full of glitches, errors, and crashes. combined with the inaccuracies of the touch screen, and the slowness of the system, it could take up to 4 minutes to write a simple text message. With a numeric keypad and t9 on a regular cell phone, I could write the same message in under 30 seconds.- Unreliable Operation. There was an emergency and I needed to call 911, only to discover that the phone was completely unresponsive. I had to pull out the battery, restart the phone, wait for it to connect to a wireless network, then struggle with the inaccurate touch screen interface to try to call 911. It took close to three minutes just to get the phone ringing. felt like an eternity.- A stylus on a string? are you kidding me? This was a very dumb idea.Overall, this phone was a constant daily battle that was nothing more than a source of stress and frustration. There are so many other bugs and problems that I had with this phone, but I would be here all night writing if I listed them all. I believe many of the other users have mentioned them anyways.

It was quite frustrating. Having a cover over the keyboard is completely worthless. It is extremely hard to see the keys. Total waste of money.Also, the worst part was it actually loosened up the joints on my phone. After I used this for a few weeks, my phone's joints had a minor wiggle to it. It is due to the cover wraps the entire inside of the phone (yes over the key board) that it doesn't allow the phone to close 100%. Therefore it creates some stress on the joints eventually weakening them.I had to eventually replace my Voyager due to technical issues and it sure nice to have a ""tight"" phone back.This cover doesn't offer any screen protection, which is really all I really wanted. I am not sure what the benefit of this cover is, unless you tend to drop your phone a lot.

I had always heard that the Razor got good range, but I got what I would estimate was 250 feet! While some may not believe that, it is true. And this was in an environment with several Wi Fi hot spots available. To put this in perspective, Bluetooth allowed me to get more range than my Linksys G router.

The microfiber cloth and cleaning wipe are low quality, but who cares they are cheap to replace, just use some rubbing alcohol.3.

Put everything you need in the bathroom to install this, and a chair or stool. Turn on the show on hot for 15 min and let it run with the door closed. Turn off the shower and let the humidity settle for 5 min. Then clean the ipad, your finger tips with rubbing alcohol, and install. Take your time and line everything up. Just drop it on when you are happy with the placement and wait. Don't touch the glass, just wait for it to naturally start the adhesion process which could take up to two minutes.

The battery lasts a whole day, 4G works wonderfully, the 1.2GHz processor doesn't have 1 second of lag, the screen is much better than the iPhone 4's retina display in my opinion *don't hate me all you apple fan-boys* its got the best camera I've seen on a cellphone, and its quite comparable to my CANON EOS REBEL XS. It may not be better than a full on DSLR, but its almost that good. I also like how it feels in my hands, its very light too and surprisingly not thick at all in my pocket. The fact its got HTC Sense 3.0 UI, makes the phone so much more fun to look at, and i can barely turn it off. When i show off my phone everyone says ""Ah, i wish i had that phone"" even all the iPhone users, and other android users.Now this is the part that everyone will go frown at, the speaker is pretty pathetic AT THE BEGINNING, you just need to burn in the speakers (i learned this through jlabs), it actually helps very much if you play songs or high to low frequencies for an hour a day at medium volume, and it gets better over a week. Another thing is the DEATH GRIP, this sounds terrifying, but the fact is, when you put a case on it (barely $2) it gets you at least 1 more bar. The death grip is eventually non existent when you get to a spot with full 4 bars, it will always stay 4 bars unless you try to lose a bar. Another thing is the battery - it lasts about a day, which for some is bad but for me, i like the fact it lasts a whole day (7am-11pm) *my milestone barely lasted 3 hours* but that problem can be solved by buying an extended battery (1900MHz cost about $10 which is amazing compared to my milestone's extended battery -$60, which was also a bigger battery, the 1900MHz is the same size as the original, and according to reviews it adds a whole extra 6 hours, which i doubt it does)so far pros= everything cons=nothingmy only concern was the price, its quite expensive, but you know how they say ""you get what you pay for"", in this case, its the best of the best for a usual price.",858,0 +859,"Nice tab/phone + +I too would like to extend my congratulations to the designers of this phone/tab.

In a 5 inch screen you can edit documents, read books, surf the net (normal sites not only mobile sites, work on your email folders, and watch the world on youtube....",859,0 +860,"Black (RAZR) is Beautiful + +The Black RAZR V3 is the wireless phone I have always wanted. It's that simple.Before having bought mine, I would read commentary from people who would cite all of the features the RAZR doesn't have: ""I could buy the (insert model number of cheaper, but still expensive phone which does 100 different things--all of them poorly) and get more for a lot less money."" When I would research a model recommended by these self-proclaimed gadget freaks, I'd find that it's dimensions make keeping it in a pocket an awkward and uncomfortable proposition; I'd find that the pictures it takes are not nearly of comparable quality to those taken by even a modest digital camera; I'd find that the lo-res video it can shoot serves no practical purpose; I'd find that web-browsing, game-playing, Instant messaging, streaming television content, all suck up battery-life and ultimately make the device useless for the unlikely purpose of placing and taking phone calls; I'd find that the phone casing is composed of cheap and flimsy plastics which make me wonder how long it wll last; I'd find that little attention had been paid to how the phone's design will contribute to, or detract from, user comfort. After my investigation, I concluded that for all the money I would save by buying ""Phone X"" over buying a RAZR, I would still have paid hundreds too much for a filmsy hunk of cutting-edge technojunk. (Don't take my word for it. Look around on the Net for comments about the RAZR around the time of its inroduction and see the recommendations from consumers that people choose the Motorola V600 instead. Then look at the consumer reviews of the V600 on this site.)The RAZR has a camera, a web-browser, Instant messaging capability, and a whole array of other features all of which are listed in the product description. To the extent that the RAZR does these things adequately I will offer little, if any, comment--mainly because I don't care about them. That to which I can and will attest is that the RAZR exceeds my expectation on how it serves AS A PHONE.Using my own criteria, a wireless phone should draw and hold a signal; It's earpiece should deliver clear sound at a volume which can compete with background noise; it's mouthpiece should pick up the users voice clearly; it should be compact enough to allow for placement in clothing pockets without creating prominent bulges; it should be solidly built out of durable materials which are not prone to scratching; it should have decent battery life. And yes, anything for which I pay hundreds of dollars should be designed with aesthetics in mind: there are far too many wireless phones which look like disposable children's toys, or like awkward, all-purpose, button-riddled gadgets.Using the above criteria, the RAZR V3, particularly the Black model, is close to perfect. The sound from the ear piece could certainly be louder, but I have yet to have a caller's voice drowned out by the noise of busy New York City streets. The people to whom I'm speaking have reported to have heard my voice loudly and clearly. Battery life could be longer, but then, the same could be said about many wireless phones which are bulkier and have larger batteries. I have used the phone on both T-Mobile and Cingular networks and found that it draws a strong signal on both; it has never dropped a call. I found the speaker phone to be loud and clear despite my expectations to the contrary. Is the much-lamented Motorola phone book program clunky? Yes it is. But the RAZR's voice-dialing works well, making it possible to avoid scrolling through the phone book if one hates it that much.I'll try to boil it down with a somewhat clumsy analogy: Complaining that the RAZR doesn't do enough in the way of tech-gimmicks to justify its price (which is considerably lower that it was when it was introduced) is like complaining that an exotic sports car isn't worth the money because it doesn't have a cup holder, a GPS system, and DVD player like the Minivan you've been looking to buy. That ridiculousness ignores the engineering that makes the sports car a superior performer on the road, and the attention put toward making it sleek and aesthetically pleasing. The RAZR's performance has made concern over signal strength a thing of the past. and its design is unmatched--not just for it's ultra-compactness, but for the solidity of it's build. That makes it worth what I paid for it. And my inability to speak to the quality of other phones on the market put them out of consideration.Besides, as they say, black is beautiful.That the RAZR cannot serve as a business-card scanner doesn't trouble me. For those who need to have whichever feature-laden mobile gadget is most desired at the moment, buy a Samsung MM-A800, clip it on you belt (you'll need to), and earn yourself the right to say your phone can do just about everything--poorly.",860,0 +861,"works great + +Works very well.

I have an iPhone 5 with the new iOS 7 and these headphones work extremely well with it. In my opinion, these Motorola Buds are the best ones and I am extremely pleased with their ease of use and overall performance. I can easily go more than 100 feet from the source without an issue. There is no snapping, popping or skipping in the connection. I like to listen to audiobooks so I personally like the sound quality of these headphones. They don't have too much bass as others have had where I can barely hear the words. The sound is clear and crisp. One thing I don't especially like is that the "horse collar" is a bit narrow for fit and I am not a large female so it is snug. However, I can work with that since the rest is good quality.

This is a VERY professional packaging and it is so easy to install.",880,1 +881,"Awesome watch, with some other useful features ;) + +This is really an extension to your phone with a watch feature added. Surprisingly it doesn't have a calculator but it does provide a vibrating reminder on your wrist for notifications and alarms and that's probably what this smart watch is more useful for. This is really useful for me since I tend to leave my Note 3 at my desk when I'm helping others or walking around the office. If a meeting reminder or call pops up I get notified on the watch. In fact, if a call comes in it can be answered from the watch too, which sounds kind-of cheesy but can be really useful if you don't have the phone handy. You get the caller ID, name and a picture from the phone's contact list.Our IT department pushed a policy to any smart phones on the Exchange server, so I can't use the proximity of the watch to the phone to unlock the phone, but the phone works very well to clear reminder notifications (snooze or clear), again, making it a lot easier to have those reminders that pop-up all day.One aspect I hadn't considered when buying the watch was the ability to customize the watch face. There are 3 analog faces and a few digital ones included, but there are a few places on the web that you can download a watch theme that will let you have anything from a fancy name brand analog watch to space age digital one. Check around for Galaxy Gear watch themes to see the variety of what's available. All of these themes are free and many are really high quality.I don't use the camera or the video option (15 seconds of video with sound) although they are good I just don't have that need. The real value of this watch to me is the ability to be alerted to various calendar events, texts and incoming calls when the phone is out of reach. You can configure the Galaxy Gear Manager (on the phone) to send you alerts from just about any application you have installed. I only need the texts and phone calls but there are pages of options for the applications.The battery in the watch lasts a little more than 2 days for me, others get longer life, but that may be due to the theme I'm using on the watch face. Recharging means putting the watch into a clam-shell charging case the right way around. It took a few days to get to the point where I can do it smoothly. I charge the watch every night, even though that's not really necessary.Bluetooth range is very good, allowing me to get 40-50 feet in a typical office with cubes and electronics that are all emitting RF. If you go too far the watch provides a little buzz and pops up a message saying it's out of range.There aren't a lot of useful 3rd party applications available for it. I use the Evernote application to check notes I've entered on the computer or phone and if necessary grab a quick snapshot to add to a note. There's a built in media control app which lets you adjust the volume, play, pause, skip forward and back a track. This is handy to control your phone's mp3 playback but you may only use it in the car if you stream music to your radio from your phone. I'm a little disappointed that Facebook doesn't have an app, but maybe they'll put out something for the upcoming Gear 2.Speaking of the Gear 2, this Galaxy Gear runs Android, whereas the Gear 2 runs Tizen. I've read a few rumors that the Galaxy Gear may be migrated to Tizen in the future. That would be nice but not really necessary unless battery life goes up significantly. The Galaxy Gear is a nice watch with just enough capability to make it useful as an extension of your Samsung Galaxy phone. It's not a stand alone device and is really an ""enabler"" to better productivity with your phone. It happens to look nice too.One final note, Samsung also includes s-Voice on the watch. It's useful to do voice dialing or sending voice to text responses to texts, but not much else. It works well enough but anyone who has played with voice input, be it Siri, S-Voice or Google Voice will realize that it's nice when it works and frustrating when it doesn't. You need to be in a quiet place to have it be effective and what you can actually do it only a fraction of what you can do faster with the device in hand. I'd say it's functional and fun to show off, but not very useful in a normal work environment.Update 3/20/14: Still love this watch! Be aware though that Google has just announced ""Android Wear"" which is a trimmed down version of Android for watches and other wearable devices. I hope Samsung will port that to this watch to provide a 2nd life. There's no indication if that will happen though. The price seems to have gone up a fair amount recently (I spent $229, it's selling for $270 now and I've seen higher). If you are buying and hope to future proof, I'd suggest waiting since Samsung hasn't announced any plans yet. Otherwise the ""fat android"" on here is good enough (for me).",881,0 +882,"Protects your phone but... + +It does a good job protecting your phone from bumps and drops, but it is a bit deceiving. The phone fits in snug and enables you to have a kick-stand with the magnetism. However the "view" part is completely useless. You download an app, that constantly runs, and it has ads. So you have to pay for the version without ads, and it's only 2 bucks, but that is still kinda stupid.

A+...",900,0 +901,"Worked well while it worked + +I've been looking for a long time to buy Bluetooth stereo headphones for the workouts in the gym - I got tired of having to deal cords that would get tangled up during the workouts or would become a mess in the gym bag. When this model came out I jumped at the opportunity to buy them since they were the first stereo Bluetooth headset with a form factor that is appropriate for wearing in public. (Most of the other ones are too big and just scream ""Look at me, I am a dork!"") And since I bought them a little over a year ago, I have been extremely satisfied with them - for the most part. Here are a few pros and cons that I have come up with.Pros:1. Comfortable enough for a daily workout. Even with my moderately large head, I did not have much of a comfort issue with wearing them every day for a couple of hours. I would not recommend wearing them for more than three hours in a row though. But that would be the case with most headphones anyways.2. Easy setup. I had no problem connecting them to either my cell phone/mp3 player or my laptop.3. Decent range. As long as there is an uninterrupted line of sight between the linking device and the headset, you can use them on the other side of a large room or a smaller gym. Comes in handy when working out and don't want anything attached to any part of your body.4. Decent music playback sound.5. Decent battery life. For a relatively small device like this one, it was pleasing to find out that it did not have to be recharged more than a couple of times a week with standard use.6. As a phone earpiece it is useful to have around the head headset because it improves stability a lot. All of my other earpieces fall out of my ears way too easily.7. Being transferred from the mp3 player to the phone when receiving an incoming call is really useful and cool. This works with iPhone as well.Cons:1. It would be really useful if these headphones were collapsible. In that case they could be taken with you in your pocket almost anywhere you go. Plus, it would avoid dangers of having them twisted while stored in your bag.2. Touch-sensitive controls are too sensitive and very, very small. It took me a while to get used to them.3. The stereo feature works only for music. When using them for calling, only the left earpiece delivers sound, which is sort of weird. This takes some time to get used to.4. For some reason, when I linked them to my laptop, they got de-linked with my cell-phone. I had to go through the whole process again to have them back in the desired configuration.5. When using it with iPhone, the track-skipping buttons don't work.6. When using it with iPhone, the headphones don't work with all applications. This turned out to be annoying and inconvenient when I tried using them with Skype.Unfortunately, a few weeks ago one of the touch-sensitive controls broke, and now I can't decrease the volume. This is really annoying because other than that they still work great. I tried sending them back to Motorola, but apparently they don't fix products that are bought through Amazon, EVEN WHEN THEY ARE BRAND NEW! This is extremely annoying to say the least. I decided to buy a new pair, and found another one on Amazon for $40. (If at the moment all the available ones are more expensive than that, you may want to wait a bit.) Since this price is about 2.5 times cheaper than what you could get in any AT&T; store, it seems to me a worth-while investment. I am now on my third pair, but I figured that paying about $40 a year for something that I get to use every day is worth it.",901,0 +902,"CO2 measurement does not work + +I purchased an additional module especially for the CO2 monitor.

It also ends up not being that compact as the parts don't fit together well. A redesign from scratch of the mounting system and tripod would seem to be in order.",903,0 +904,"Great in a Pinch! + +I bought this portable power pack since I have my phone in a OtterBox and it doesn't support a extended battery.Here's the quick rundown:PROS:it fully charges up from dead in a a short time (an hour or so)comes with a nice short USB to Micro USB cable to charge the pack or can be used to charge 2 devices at once.

While the high quality setting (on my Softick Audio Gateway (SAG) software) takes significant memory, I've been able to listen to music on PTunes, buffer it to the headset via bluetooth, control the music player using AVRCP AND at the same time read a book on Mobipocket.Headset cabling is a teensy bit awkward but it's quite easy to clip the pendant on a pants pocket and have just the right length to reach the ears without jerks. The extremely low weight and compactness of the pendant make it barely noticeable.Buttons are slick and responsive, audio skipping is rare and completely absent if I'm not multi-tasking on my Centro. Bluetooth range is impressive (no lag/skips across a medium sized room).Pendant has a mini-usb port for charging but it doesn't come with a usb charger cable (it does have a normal wall outlet adapter for charging). Battery life is excellent. I have to charge once every three (might go more) days if I use it continuously for about an hour or two every day.The phone call quality is nice too. The person I was talking to could hear everything fine and vice versa.You WILL have to blow an additional $20 on software (SAG) to use this (or any stereo bluetooth headset with remote control) with the Palm Centro for listening to music.

Call your provider. + +UPDATE after exchanging the L100a for the L100i because Blu told me to:Blu support doesn't know what they're talking about.

It is our pleasure to serve you. It seems you have the Life Play L100a. For all of our devices, if the model number ends in the letter a it is compatible with the 850/1900 3G/4G frequency (AT&T;) and if the model number ends in the letter I it is compatible with the 850/2100 3G/4G frequency (T-Mobile). For example, the L100a works better for AT&T; than the L100i, which would be for T-Mobile. Please contact your seller for an exchange for the same model ending in an i as that is the correct model you need.Also, our devices only have support for HSDPA (regular 4G) not LTE.

[...]* * *After I complained again to Blu about Edge speeds when I got the second phone, they sent me an email on how to config the phone by changing the APN. Again, they were wrong because T-mobile told me the L100i does not support their 3G/4G frequencies. ARGH!!The moral of the story = DO NOT BUY AN L100i for USA use. Call a local Tmobile with the frequency specs on any unlocked phone you're considering before purchasing. It will save you many headaches. My head hurts a lot right now.",907,0 +908,"I finally feel safe using my Samsung Galaxy s4 + +This review is for a Seidio CSWSSGS4-WGOBEX Waterproof Case for Samsung Galaxy S4, white with grey. I purchased my Samsung Galaxy S4 right after they were first available. Really liked my phone but there were no what I call protective cases available for it for a long time. I had an Otterbox defender on my I-phone 3 and really liked the way it protected my phone, but I had been under the impression that it was waterproof too and that was not the case. My next phone was an Atrix and I just had a foo-foo case on it. I had dropped that phone many times and didn't have as much as a scratch on it, until one day getting out of the truck my phone fell out of my purse and landed face down on the pavement, the screen shattered. After spending big bucks to get the screen and sensor majig replaced I purchased an Otterbox for it too. When my Samsung Galaxy came along I was very anxious to find a good protective case for it. I tried several different cases for it and they gave it some protection, but I never was at ease with them. I researched and researched and found the Life Proof series of cases, but they weren't available at the time for my galaxy s4, Such was the case also with the Otterbox Armour series for the S4, The Armour series sounded like it would protect my S4 so I was waiting for it to become available as well.I felt that I needed the highest degree of protection for my phone because we live on a ranch and anytime I am horseback I have my phone with me as it has pretty well replaced both of my really good camera's. We are all over the ranch, climbing steep trails and crossing streams frequently. It would be so easy to drop my phone when I am using it if the horse spooked or moved suddenly. So I kept searching and I found a case that said it was water proof, drop proof etc here on Amazon. It was about a 1/3 of the cost of the other two cases I was waiting for, and I decided to give it a try before I damaged my phone. So I purchased the Newest Extreme Shockproof Dust/dirt Proof Aluminum Metal Military Heavy Duty Protection Cover case for Samsung Galaxy S4 SIV I9500 @XYG (White). It took nearly a month to get it but once I had it I was very impressed with everything about it. It had great cushioning inside, the phone fit in it perfectly. The face attached to the back with several small screws and gave my phone good feel to it. The only problem was that we live in a very marginal cell service area and I am assuming that the fact that it is made of aluminum my signal was blocked. Now, if you live in a good service area you might not notice any problem at all, but it was causing me not to have any signal at all most of the time. So, I removed that case and shopped some more, all the time reading reviews.By the time that the Life Proof cases became available I didn't have the money to turn loose of at the time. I kept reading reviews and found that people were not thrilled with those cases either. So, in reading a review on some case or another someone mentioned this Seidio CSWSSGS4-WGOBEX Waterproof Case and highly recommended them saying that they were second to none. So, I ordered t Seidio CSWSSGS4-WGOBEX Waterproof Case in white with grey on the sides. As soon as I received it I did the waterproof test that is recommended. I put the case in the bathroom sink filled with water and sat a bottle of soap on top of it to keep it in the water. I then went outside to see my horses and it was about 20 minutes before I returned to the house. I took the case out of the water, dried it off and attempted to open it. I ended up going on youtube to watch a video on how to take the thing apart. The paper instructions on how to open it were inside the case. But, that was all that was in the case. There was not a single drop of water or moisture of any kind present in it. I put the case on my phone and have been very excited about how it makes my phone feel good in my hand with a nice weight and without all of the bulk that the Otterbox added. The screen fits well and my phone feels secure. I had my 3 grandchildren This past weekend ages 13 months, 2 1/2 and 6 1/2. Sure enough one of my biggest fears came to fruition when my grand daughter knocked my phone off of the kitchen cabinet on to the floor landing face down. I picked up my phone and was so afraid of what I would find but, there was no damage to my phone. In some of the reviews I read that people were having problems with being heard by others and were hearing an echo when they talked. It was recommended by the company to adjust one of the sound adjustments on the phone. I did as they recommended and have not had any problems down that line. I have only had my case for about a week so I can't speak as to the longevity of the case, but I am very well pleased with it at this point. I don't want to forget to mention that I also am very happy that this case does not add a lot of bulk and extra weight to my phone.",908,0 +909,"Great Protection for I-Phone + +This item is a great way to protect the I-Phone from damage.

I returned it within the 30 days (and am still awaiting my refund). ANTOline sold the same unit to another party without erasing the phone numbers I had programmed into the phone set. I know that because this evening I received an emergency message. When I called back, the party on the phone was testing the emergency response button and did not realize he connected to me. I informed him of what transpired and he said he will disable the emergency response feature. If at some point he needs to return the unit, will my number be in some way embedded in the phone set for the next person the company would sell the phone to?

The Micro HDMI cable, however, has a flaw; the end where the cable plugs into the dock is not a big plastic piece like the usb, it is just a metal prong (extended out from the plastic of the plug) that slides over the metal prong on the lapdock.

After several months writing and waiting I decided to file a claim but AMAZON said that the could not do anything.I believe without any doubt that the seller didn't want to refund the money. That was more than 400.00 USD (including two times the shipping).And I wonder myself: What kind of person risk the business for 2 phones? And how AMAZON protect us from this situation???Be careful.",925,0 +926,"Great case in a limited field for Thunderbolt + +The Thunderbolt is so new that most high end case manufactures don't have many cases out yet. Hard to believe since there have been prototypes since the CES in early 2011 and the numerous delays by Verizon. After a thorough search and experience with several other manufacturers for this and other devices, I think there really are only two choices out there. Otterbox and Seidio. Otterbox is very late in its TB case release although the prototypes for the case look great. I ordered the Seidio because of the soft and hard case combo which is similar to the Otterbox Defender for the Ipad offering. I think the Seidio adds minimal bulk and weight to the Thunderbolt and provides satisfactory protection. The rubber is great to grip but not too sticky to slide in and out of your pocket. The rubber inner case is too soft in my opinion and could be better quality. The hard skeleton piece is plastic and has spray on rubber texture that over time will likely wear off or scratch which is a negative in my opinion from an esthetic stand point. However, for now it's nice to the touch as a result.Thunderbolt is the heaviest Smart phone I have owned in a while and the screen is brilliant. I upgraded from an HTC Incredible and for some reason the screen is much easier to scratch so I highly recommend an above average case and a screen protector right out of the box. For $29.95 (for the Seidio case and [...] for the belt clip and case) I think this case is a bit overpriced especially since they didn't include a screen protector in the package. However, for now it is the best case on the market for Thunderbolt and waiting on the Otterbox Defender may be costly resulting in long term damage to your Thunderbolt from daily use. [...]I am happy for now and think it is the best case out there (until Otterbox can be evaluated) with no other real options for this amazing phone.",926,0 +927,"Flashlight and Charger in one superb quality compact unit. Charges my phone or tablet quickly! + +This very portable 6000mAh ultra slim charger (with built in flashlight) is very high powered and even has a built in VERY BRIGHT flashlight. This unit I have tried on my Samsung Galaxy phone and on my Samsung Galaxy Player. Since I carry around a tablet and a phone, what I do is charge one and get it fully charged and then place the other into this so that each one stays charged and ready to go. Note that this comes with two USB charging cables, neck strap, hand strap, and excellent instruction manual. Below you will see my testing results and suggestions:+ My Testing Results on Charger: Each device charged up VERY QUICKLY from 50 percent to 100 percent in just 1.5 hours! Therefore you can purchase that is full confidence because it has a FULL 2amps, which is just what most newer tablets require for the fastest charge! And it also benefits newer and larger phones (such as the S4) because it charges just about as fast as their wall connection counterparts!+ My Testing Results on Flashlight – To fully test this, I went into a very large and totally dark closet and turned on the flashlight part. WOW! Everything in the closet as vivid. Then I went outside in a dark area of my yard, shined the flashlight and I could see very well, in fact just as well as my big and bulky regular flashlight (now retires)!+ Do you need a high powered portable charger with a flashlight (but just need one port)? Then I will suggest this to you as it will charge your tablet or phone very fast. However, there is ONE port. If you are looking for one like this WITH 2 PORTS with 2 amp, with a flashlight also, then I suggest to you the EasyAcc PowerBank 9000 (which I also own and reviewed). It has dual ports for your tablet and for your phone and also a Flashlight! (For me, I take both with me now because I need a port to charge my Bluetooth headset).Very highly recommend this totally portable charger to ALL!",927,0 +928,"Nice Speaker + +The Noria Speaker Block is an excellent Bluetooth speaker. It's super easy to connect and comes with a manual. I've tested it on iPhone, Mini iPad, LG phone, Noria tablet & Nook tablet. Listening to music through this box beats listening to music through headphones anytime. It has a range of about 25ft, but I didn't test past this, being that's the full length of my house. The battery life is really good; I've listened to 15 hrs worth of music and haven't had to recharge yet. I like the size too: 6 3/8" L x 2 1/8" H x 1 5/8"W. Another thing I liked about this speaker is that you can plug directly into an audio jack if your device doesn't have Bluetooth. The only con about using this device is using the hands free unit, I could hear the person I called really well: it came in crystal clear, but the people I talked to said it was hard to understand me & it sounded like I was miles away when in fact I was really close to the speaker. All in all, it is an excellent item would highly recommend.",928,0 +929,"If you can replace a computer keyboard, you can do this + +This product is an absolute LIFE SAVER!!!Unlike other reviews stated, mine DID come with instructions just like what is shown in the picture.The process was simple. I used a hairdryer to melt the glue, and it took a while at first, but after getting it started, it all came off relatively easy. My screen had spiderweb cracked, so I had to pick small shards off the center of the screen. I tried using the suction cup to take it all off in one piece, and even using packing tape, a screen protector and a few other recommendations, I couldn't get it to come up. So I carefully picked it all off with the small guitar pick. I left 3 small scratches on the LCD as a result, but my phone works fine, just looks a bit scratched.The glass looks completely factory. No one would ever know I replaced my screen - which I really like.Just work in great lighting, go slow, and be confident. I do have a background in technology and am familiar with how the phone is put together, but my ""computer repair"" history consists of replacing a laptop keyboard and a few keyboard keys in my lifetime.Anyone can do this as long as they have a steady hand.I will be recommending this kit for life.",929,0 +930,"The best for the Samsung Captivate Glide & I've tried many! + +I don't normally leave reviews on Amazon, but I had such a hard time finding a suitable case for this phone, I wanted to spare everyone who is shopping for one the agony that I experienced! Also, there was only one review for this case when I bought it, and I felt like I was 'taking a chance' on it, so I wanted to set others' minds at ease. Aside from this particular case, there's only, like, four other case options for this phone. I will run down the issues with them:Speck Products SPK-A0744 Samsung Captivate Glide SureSlider Cell Phone Case - 1 Pack - Retail Packaging - Black/Dark Grey-- this one is $30+ which is just too much for a cell phone case in my opinion, especially considering it doesn't even include extra accessories like a screen protector or stylus. I mean, it's not an OtterBox for pete's sake. In addition, there are several reports online of it breaking at the top around where the camera is located. See: You Tube.Case-mate Barely There Slim Case for Samsung Galaxy S Captivate Glide I927-- I only ever found it sold here on Amazon, but when I received it, the case said ""compatible with Samsung Captivate Glide"" not that it was specifically made for this phone. I should have suspected when I was not able to locate this particular case on Case-Mate's website. When I put it on my phone, it would not slide closed without each piece of the case rubbing together somewhere. I eventually had to force it and decided that having that case was not worth potentially breaking my phone. It got returned (the seller, however, was very polite and prompt with the refund).Body Glove 9255501 Samsung Captivate Glide Soft Touch Cell Phone Case - 1 Pack - Retail Packaging - Blue-- I did not purchase this one, but it is my understanding that this is a very good case, but hard to remove once installed on the phone. This can be good and bad, depending on your needs. It was not suitable for me because I frequently need to remove the back cover of the phone to access my Micro SD card that I have installed in my phone and I was not sure I would be able to with this case. Second, I didn't like the blue color, but obviously that's a personal preference. Finally, the cost, again, seems high for a basic cell phone case with no additional accessories. Again, see: not OtterBox.The last option: Any cheap, made in China, plastic/(or supposedly)rubberized case found littered on here, eBay and any other cell phone accessory site you come across. They usually retail anywhere from $0.45-$4.00. These are terrible, plain and simple. They do not fit the phone and will cause you to force the slider open and closed, which will eventually break your phone. Mine was returned.Moving on to THIS particular case: The first thing I noticed taking it out of the package was how the case felt. It is very soft and smooth and makes gripping my phone much easier. it snapped onto my phone in, literally, a few seconds. I didn't have to force anything like I did with a few of the others. The phone slides open and closed as it should with no rubbing. The case is thin enough that it doesn't add a lot of extra bulk to the phone, but it feels sturdy enough that it could handle minor drops, bumps, etc. The cost is right on -- not so cheap that you end up with a piece of junk (see above), but not unjustifiably expensive either (again, see above). I can't attest to the durability since I just received it today, but I am hopeful that this is the last case I will have to buy for this phone. And, should something happen to it, I would likely replace it with the same case since it looks how I like and is reasonably priced.I hope this review helps those in search of a case for their Samsung Captivate Glide!",930,0 +931,"Superb screen protector + +I highly recommend this screen protector. I bought it for my iPhone 4 (Verizon) and it definitely is my favorite shield thus far. I'm not sure how other people got bubbles, perhaps they're not familiar with the whole application process, but it's the same for every film, more or less.I've had the Zagg Invisishield before, which was more expensive and it gave a very different feel. The Invisishield was more gummy and had a softer texture, however the Acase isn't noticeable at all and feels hard and smooth just like the the real surface of the iPhone. The great thing is, if you do happen to mess up or get dust on during the application somehow, you get two more chances as this is a pack of 3! Awesome product.",931,1 +932,"Sluggish Response and Frequent Reboots + +Used this phone for a couple of months. Comparing with my old Samsung SGH 900, here are my general impressions/experience1. Android 2.3 is certainly a lot more user friendly than dodgy win 6.52. The device does not have enough hardware, however. Camera resolution is too small -- making indoor pictures highly pixeled.3. Touch-responses are too sluggish. Delays are annoying. If you used any device like iProducts, the sluggish responses are unbearable.4. The phone required frequent reboots. Sometimes the phone gets persistent vibrations, and I need to open the back cover to take out the battery to reboot it.5. One time, and only one time, I left the phone unbooted for a week. I began to tell myself that the phone finally became more stable. However, the next day I received an alert from T-mobile saying the phone requires frequent rebooting to get better performance.6. RAM is not enough for this phone. RAM is always running low with ~70MB free.7. There is not word as to when OS can be upgraded to android 4.0.xIn summary, this phone is not worth the money given the sluggish/unresponsive, outdated Android OS, and frequent-rebooting user experience.I wish to have spent money on a quad-core, or at least a dual-core smartphone, which would give much better user experience.",932,1 +933,"Fantastic deal (used to be, at least, but not any more) + +EDITED ON 2/15/2012Since my original review I have received a couple of comments informing me that T-Mobile has dropped their web daypass option. Furthermore over the past year there has been an explosion of cheap android phones released to be used on cheap pre-paid plans. Given these two changes to the market since my original review, I no longer feel that the T-Mobile Comet represents the best value in this segment and have lowered my rating to a merely ""average"" 3 stars.ORIGINAL REVIEW:Between home and the office, I spend a lot of time within reach of a land line and a computer with internet access. So as much as I may have wanted a smart phone previously, I just haven't been able to justify spending upwards of $80 a month for one. I've been waiting a long time for a carrier to offer a smart phone with a pay-as-you-go pricing model - and after about two weeks of use I can say that I am very happy with the T-Mobile Comet.I've been using T-Mobile's 10 cents per minute pre-paid plan for several years - previously with a cheap, extremely basic Samsung t209 phone. While I wouldn't really call T-Mobile's call quality or coverage ""great"", I would definitely say that it has been ""good enough"" for me while living around Boston and San Francisco, and the price has certainly been reasonable. Historically I have spent about $10 to $12 per month on average on my cell phone bill. I also have family members on the same plan who spend even less.A lot of reviews that compare the Comet to iPhones or other Android phones that can be purchased for $100 to $200 dollars (or even for free) along with an expensive post-paid plan and a two year commitment really seem to miss the point. A $100 phone on an $80 dollar per month plan is going to end up costing more than $2,000 over the lifetime of the two-year commitment. On the other hand, a person who purchases a $200 Comet and spends about $20 a month on average in prepaid minutes and web access is going to spend about $700 over that same period. Is there *any* smart phone out there that's good enough to justify the 3x price difference? For my needs, definitely not.The real utility of this phone and T-Mobile's pricing structure is the ability to purchase a ""Web Day Pass"", which gets you 24 hours of data access at the cost of $1.49 on the days you need it. As I mentioned before, I don't need internet access on my phone most days - but there are times when it can be a real life saver. For example - when you're out on the road in an unfamiliar city, use it to look up restaurant reviews and save yourself an unpleasant experience. Or use it to get directions if you're lost. Check prices and reviews on Amazon when you're shopping, or retrieve some important piece of information from your inbox or the web that you forgot to write down before leaving the house. Having access to the web in any one of these situations is well worth the $1.49 cost.I should note that if you're a bigger talker than me (i.e. you have friends) and worry that paying 10 cents per minute would add up pretty quickly, then you might also want to look at T-Mobile's pre-paid $30-per-month plan which includes 1,500 minutes and 20 MB of data access. 20 MB isn't a lot, but you could probably stretch it a long way if you were to lay off the youtube and use it sparingly. If you do happen to use up your 20 MB before the month is over, then you can resort to buying Web Day Passes to get you through the rest of the month.I should also note that for a few dollars less you can buy a Nokia Nuron, which probably offers a roughly equivalent set of features, but without the advantages of running Android or having a capacitive touch screen (I've read that browsing the web and using the touch screen in general on the Nuron can be quite painful). Or, for a few dollars more you can buy an LG Optimus T which according to CNET is considerably nicer than the Comet. Both of these phones should work on the T-Mobile prepaid plans, and therefore offer excellent value.A couple of other features that I have found useful are the ability to make Skype phone calls over Wi-Fi, the Google Voice Search feature (it's surprisingly accurate), and the ability to store and play mp3s (it comes with 2 GB of storage, and is expandable to 32 GB. Sound quality over headphones is not as good as an iPod though). One negative that you should be well aware of is that the camera is a piece of junk. This is something that I read about in almost all of the reviews - but even then I was surprised at just how bad it is. Think late 1990's web cam, and you should have an idea of just how bad this thing is.Overall, though, I think that this phone and especially T-Mobile's pay-as-you-go plan is a fantastic value, and would highly recommend it to anyone who is a) not a millionaire, and b) doesn't have their monthly cell phone bill paid for them by their employer or parents.",933,0 +934,"Phone is not worth the headache + +HTC one SV ""Beats Audio"" sucks. Speaker phone is poor and of low quality. When speaking it is very hard for anyone on the other line to hear me, infact i was told it sounds as if I am drowning. After owning the phone 16 days I tried to return it because of the issues described above only to be told, "" You are too late for a return to Sprint"" I was out over $300.00. HTC tried to correct it with a manufacture reset and still after 6 months the phone still sucks. Do no waste your money.",934,1 +935,"Protect your little iPhone + +I love this case, this is the 3rd one I have purchased. I find that the duel cover keeps my phone from scratches or damage.

I also like a headset that I don't have to worry about charging and putting an increased battery drain on my cell phones.The Jabra c120 has very good sound quality. It measures up to the other Jabra products that I've used in the past. The eargels channel the sound directly into your ear and seem to increase the sound volume and clarity. They fit comfortably in the ear and come in 3 different sizes for a more custom fit. When on the cell phones, people seem to be able to hear me better than when I'm using the handset.The one quirk that this product has is a slightly longer cord for the left earpiece with no obvious explanation for it. I looked in the scant documentation for the product and found no mention of this. I finally came across a picture on the website showing a woman with both earpieces going around the right side of her head (instead of the commom Y formation going to each side of the head). I guess this was the design of the longer wire to wrap around the neck to the left ear, but I don't see any advantage to this. Jabra should state that purpose somewhere on the packaging, papers, or website.It would also be nice to have a clip on the left wire so that extra earpiece isn't dangling around or needlessly stuck in your ear on non-stereo devices (on which only the right earpiece is active). A carrying case would also be nice to keep up with the 3.5mm pin adapter when not in use and to neatly store the headset so the wires don't get tangled.",938,0 +939,"Love it :) + +I love my pink HTC Wildfire S :)It's my first smartphone and it's easy to handle, but smaller than other smartphones..

(There were no instructions in the booklet or online "Samsung support" on how to make a call using the voice command feature).On the Q2 I can say "What can I say" and the headset would respond with some command options...invaluable!!The headset worked fine without using the voice command feature...but that was not the reason I wanted the headset...I need the hands free voice command feature to make and receive phone calls.Everything else worked as advertised; sound quality, lite weight, sleek design, etc.I have subsequently went back to my Blueant Q2...I guess it comes down to knowing what you have good, bad, or indifferent.Considering the some of the short comings of the Q2...mainly the pairing and staying paired...it has an outstanding "voice command" feature that is truly hands free in my opinion.Truly with all things considered the Blueant Q2 is hands down the best headset that I've used...not that I've used many.So, I'm sticking with what works for me...my only other option was to go with the monstrous (opinion only) Plantronics Pro.I've heard that the Plantronics Pro is an outstanding headset...I just can't get past the size of the thing.

I have a BB Storm (1st generation) and it paired with my phone flawlessly (also tried it with an older Motorola flip phone). It was super easy to set up.The sound quality is great. No echoes, repeated ""WHAT?!""s yelled on either end of the call, and no weird tinny sound like some other Bluetooth headsets I've tried. This is all thanks to the ""dual-mic noise cancellation,"" I gather.What I love most about it is the voice-activated answering. When a phone call comes in, you can say ""answer"" or ""ignore"" and it will do whichever you command. And it's big selling feature: if you download MotoSpeak (a free app for Blackberry and Android devices), the headset will let you know of incoming text messages and read them to you! There's a tiny lag between when my phone receives the message and when the headset tells me about it, but if you're driving, it's super handy. And if you have a Droid, you can dictate your reply back! (Haven't been able to test that out -- with my BB I can only hear incoming messages.)The battery life is great so far. I have only charged it once, but it's still at level ""high"" (according to the voice that tells you battery level when you start it up) several weeks later. Granted, I only turn it on when I need to use it, which is only for a half hour or so a day, but I expected typical small battery drain from non-use, which I've not experienced with this model thus far.My one qualm is the power switch -- it feels kind of flimsy. Not that you could break it off, because it's inset, but someone with big fingers might find it hard to turn on and off.

I've tried electrical tape but it isn't doing the job.The headphones themselves are solid (not the best I've had for under $5), and I've gotten mixed reviews on the voice quality from recipients of phone calls. I hate the square speaker - it's obtrusive - and the answer/hangup/voice activation button doesn't work with my phone, even though the button has worked for this phone on other headsets.You get what you pay for, although most of the time I've gotten more than I've paid for.

After every call, I only have to wipe the protector with a tissue or fabric, and my screen is matte again. I never see fingerprints on the screen. It saves a lot of energy. It also prevents screen glare exceptionally well, as I can use my phone in direct sunlight with ease.I drop my phone often and it protects well from scratches and nicks. I might see fine lines on the protector itself, but my iphone itself is always left pristine. In fact, I felt compelled to write this review because I lost my phone, which ended up face-down in a gravel-filled driveway. The phone was run by a car over twice. The screen protector was completely chewed up by the gravel, but when I removed the protector, my screen was completely scratch and dent-free.

It's taken me about 20 different phones to realize I have a problem! While most girls want shoes I am always wanted the latest greatest new phone. I would consider myself an expert in the world of smartphones. My last nine phones have been (in order) Motorola Q, Iphone 3g, Iphone 3gs, Palm pre plus,HTC, Motorola Droid, Motorola Droid X, Blackberry Torch, and finnally iphone 4 (my current and favorite phone which I am sticking with).I am writing a review on the new Blackberry Torch because I think it gets to much credit in the smartphone world. When I first got it I was enamored with the slide out keyboard and the slick robust feel of the phone. I noticed right away that it was sluggish and most screens lagged. I still pushed onwards with the Torch I had owned a blackberry pearl a at one time and was impressed by blackberrys battery life and the quailty of product. True to blackberry the Torch has great battery life and even with moderate to heavy usage I could go all day! in comparison with all the other phones I had owned (even the apple phones 3g and 3gs) the blackberry Torch is very good on battery given the screen size and the wide range of features.Three months into owning this device things started going downhill. I would think it was only my phone that was defective but my boyfriends had the same problems and I purchased them at the same time. The screen started freezing, getting caught in landscape mode, half the screen turned white, more and more problems kept coming up! To top it all off with a few programs installed the Torch got extremely slow, it lagged on every screen to the point I avoided using it too look things up because it was too frustrating. Everyday my boyfriend and I were taking off the backs of the phones to reboot them and it really became a pain.On the plus side the Torch was great for security reasons not that I have anything that needs to be secure! And the slide out keyboard is awesome and easy to type on! The on screen keyboard is a joke and unusable, but the touch screen works well for browsing the web and clicking on links.I don't dislike the Blackberry Torch I just don't believe its a phone that allowed me to get the most out of my data package and I don't feel like it was the most reliable phone. As far as blackberrys go the web browsing experience is better than previous Blackberrys but the sluggish phone won't allow you to enjoy the new browser. The phone looks great is very durable, sounds great when its not frozen and you can place a call, and is overall a good option for those who need the security of Blackberry.

The brushed metal look material is very well done and the front cover is well weighted as to not need a latch as on cheaper covers. The hard shell that holds the phone has a semi smooth feel, as well as a soft touch spigen logo\motto\product ID sticker that seems like it would not varnish the damage the phone battery cover like some cheaper ones do. The inside of the lid is a soft microfiber.Unfortunately, the outer material isnt very tough. After about 5 or 6 days the upper left corner on front and upper right corner on back have worn through the outer material layer. It is just barely worn, but also just enough to tell.

I'm an extreme gadget lover, and the features of the H500 really appealed to me, as did the fact that it doesn't have any type of boom mic that you have to deal with to use it.Upon receiving the unit, which came packed in a standard blister pack type of package, I opened it up and began exploring (thanks for NOT using one of those hard to open packages, Motorola... I didn't have to risk bodily harm to get to my new toy). The AC adapter that comes with the unit is small, has folding prongs, and fits easily into my laptop bag. There are several pieces of literature, one of which is a fold out micro-poster that explains very clearly how the H500 works, and what the various button combinations do as well as what the visual/audio feedback signals mean.The unit charged up quickly and then paired with my PM-325 without a hitch. Pressing the multipurpose button is met with a responding beep, and then the voice of my phone asking for a name to dial. After making several test calls, and 1 legitimate call, I am rather impressed.The H500 sounds clear, fits securely and comfortably on my average-sized ear, with a clever swing-out ear hook that is on a sturdy hinge. The only disappointment, which perhaps can be attributed in part or whole to my PM-325, is that the range seems to be about half that of the stated 30 feet. I plan on using this in my car, or just around my apartment with the phone near, so this is not a problem for me.Overall, I am more than impressed with this unit and highly recommend it. I'm currently researching a Motorola IHF1000 Hands Free car kit for this phone, as this relatively inxpensive headset has impressed me that much.--- Update ---My PM-325 died. I bought a RAZR V3m, and this headset really began to shine. I can walk entirely around my 1,000 sq ft apartment with not even so much as a crackle.

This prompted me me to start planning a phone upgrade. Being ineligible for a contract extension upgrade meant that I would be looking for a new phone, unlocked, at a rather substantial cost. I decided to give this reasonably priced retail Nokia BL-4L battery a whirl first, based on the reviews, and was thrilled when it gave my phone a new lease of life!Standby and usage times (with 3G browsing, music streaming etc for 1-2 hours, GPS with Nokia Maps or Google Maps for at least 45 minutes per day and 60-90 minutes of phone conversations) are back to their impressive, original levels.

You can turn OFF either one IF you want to use just the OTHER one.Being sold already UNLOCKED, I was able to use my both my EUROPEAN SIM as well as my ASIAN SIM.

I love the keyboard and the fact that Blackberry stayed consistent with it's tried and true software and user options. I will be sticking with this phone for quite awhile.",1024,0 +1025,"Product is fine, really... but not without a couple caveats + +The reason I got this particular case was based on how pleased I am with myPoetic Slimline Portfolio Casefor my Nexus 7: the company went as far as sending out three (3!!!) cases to each buyer because the first two product batches they sent out were not up to their standards (which was true). So I figured that if they did that for their N7-case, they would make sure to manufacture a case for the Nexus 4 equally as good.The case itself is not a bad one, but it does have what I would call a major flaw, and to explain, I will use this example: think of a brand new book. Now think on how you would NORMALLY open the top cover to reveal the first page. Now, rather than wanting to see the first page, imagine you actually want to see the very last page. So most likely you would turn the book the other way around with the back-cover facing up and then you would flip the book's back-cover to reveal its last page: THAT'S HOW this case is designed.In fewer words: the case is perfectly designed...were I a left handed person. But not even, because regardless, you still have to use both your hands to open this, which still makes the opening feel weird, as in backwards. More than once, without me thinking, I end up opening the case to find my phone up-side down.... you know what I mean?I suspect this is what happened: the price I paid for this was $4.95 with free shipping (!!! - yes, I was shocked at the little amount too), which seemed very odd that they would charge such a low price (just the expense of shipping a small package over the mail would cost that much). But now, the product is selling for six more dollars from what I originally paid, bringing the price up to $10.95 at the time of this writing. This makes me believe that the batch they sent out at the lower price was the batch they used for their QA and to ""test the waters"".... I really hope they would use these reviews and proceed as they did with the case for the N7: improve on the design for the N4-case.Protection wise, the product does its job when it comes to protecting the device from every day ""rough usage"" (i.e. putting the thing on the table sloppily, handling the phone without the fear of cracking the glass, etc): for such events, not only the case does a fine job, but it looks good doing it. Now, having that said, I don't think this case would make the phone exempt from the dents and the scratches that would come from an accident in which the phone flies out of your hands landing on the concrete floor five feet in front of you, and the bouncing and the sliding involved in such fall (and I don't think that was the intention of this product; for that, there are other types of cases, which make your phone look super bulky and hideous, no matter how much they say that's not true). That's not saying this case would not protect the device over ""clean drops"" or falls that are not as drastic as the scenario described.So, if you are the type of person that is careful when handling stuff, the protection you get with this case might be all you need. On the other hand, if you are a careless son of a.... (like me) when it comes to handling cellphones, then I just can not say this case will provide your phone with the most protection from you.I really wanted to love this product, but based on its odd design, along with the fact that parts of the phone's bezel end up being partially exposed (albeit without ""sticking out"", which is good), I can not give it two thumbs up, but I can certainly give it one as it does offer certain level of protection and the thing looks good.",1025,0 +1026,"It broke my iPhone back glass + +In the directions it states to place your phone on the mount and firmly press the phone to it then immediately remove the phone.

It was so stuck to my iPhone 4 back glass that it actually cracked the back of my phone as I WORKED to remove my phone. It was seriously so damn difficult to get it off that it even pulled broken pieces of glass off with it! I am thoroughly pissed off about this and am returning to the store and demanding the manufacturer pay me $15 to replace the back glass on my iPhone.

Ok, I admit that maybe it's just me, but, if a company claims their product will protect your device against almost anything, within certain limits, then I expect that claim to be backed up with a solid device replacement warranty should the product fail. Ultraproof isn't that confident in their product, offering only a warranty on the case not falling apart on you. To be fair, neither Otterbox nor Lifecase offer this type of protection either. Bottom line: If the product fails and your phone is done in, a replacement comes out of your pocket.Ultraproof is very upfront about the buyer testing this case prior to putting their phone in it. Fair enough, and that is what I did. According to the specs, it should be able to go to 8' of water for 30 minutes without a problem. The suggested testing is detailed as being put it in 6"" of water for 5 minutes. My first test was to simply submerge the case fully, lengthwise, in a large cup of water. An hour later, and no moisture inside. My second test was to add turbulence to the water. That one didn't go so well. The cover on the headset port popped loose, letting water in. My third test was to simulate what would happen if the phone were really dropped into a pool or something after sitting out in the sun. More or less, temperature shock, going from hot to cold over a short period of time. Using an already dead iPhone (none of my friends would loan me theirs for some reason), I let the case sit out in the sun for an hour, then dropped in into a basin of water. In this test, again, the port cover popped open. For my final test, I put the case in the dishwasher, on the upper rack, and ran the washer through a cycle. Other than my first test, this is the only one when neither port cover came off. Looking at the manual further, I noted that Ultraproof states in the ""Warnings"" section that you need to keep the case out of the sunlight to prevent heat buildup. They also warn you not to drop it, which for a case that is also ShockPROOF, that seems odd.Having satisfied my curiosity on how well the case really held up to water, I moved on to testing it out as a daily use case. All the buttons worked fine, the screen sensitive to touch, and pictures taken from the camera were clear. Making calls with it and listing to music wasn't great. I got complaints that I couldn't be understood, and the feeling was mutual. Music was muffled and distorted. Dropping the unit from various heights and onto different surfaces, with previously mentioned dead iPhone inside, the case held together just fine. Again my friends refused to loan my their phones to try the case with a live one, so I'm unable to give credit to the case being ShockPROOF. For my final test, I decided to see about that SandPROOF business was about. Tossing the case in a sandblasting box, I hit it with some grit. No sand got inside, and other than marring the clear plastics, the case was intact.After all of this, I would hesitate purchasing this. Especially if what one wants to do is take the phone into the pool with them for some underwater photography. The case is great for keeping water off your phone is it's just a splash or fall in the sink, true. But as an every day use case, I think it's really lacking. If you consistently use a Bluetooth or wired headset for making calls, and either a wired or Bluetooth speaker for listening to tunes, then you can toss out the problems I came across concerning quality of those functions.

Since I got this, I always keep my phone in it and ditch the purse often, ie: when going to lunch, going out for the night, walking to the store etc. I've gotten many compliments (cute, I like that, so cool). I've even heard people whisper to each other (did you see that, I need to get me one of those...)Materials:It's some kind of vinyl or something (not leather), but it still feels pleasant enough to the touch, smooth and 'dryish', not 'pla-sticky'. It's been several months of constant use and it's showing no signs of cracking or wear at all, not even along the ""spine"", where I often fold it. Stitching is strong and evenly spaced, no threads dangling. I was worried about the clasp/hook that holds the strap on when I first got it. It's that ""fake"" metal stuff, some kind of semi-metallic coating thingie, but it's sturdy enough for me to feel confident holding it from the strap to take pics out the car window.Closure:I was also concerned about the non-snap closure, which I was pretty sure would either be loose, or get stretched out, but it's been good. It fits nicely, it's snug and it stays closed. Also since the Nokia Lumia manual says keep away from magnets, I feel better about it.Pockets:I fit four cards in mine (it has three slots), two in the middle slot. They fit in snugly and show no signs of falling out. However, the slot I put two cards in is a bit stretched now, so I have to always have two cards in it. The cash pocket is handy. You can sneak an extra card in there, and quite a few bills, though the phone gets fat, but it's okay for a night.Screen:No scratches on my screen. Sometimes if my screen gets dirty, there will be a line from the edge of the card, but I can polish it off with my shirttail.Talking on the phone:To talk on phone, fold cover flap backwards. It doesn't cause wear. It's a little thick, but I can still hold the whole thing in one hand.Phone holder plastic:Tight fit, perfect fit, but not invincible. My phone fell out when I dropped it from waist high. I was standing on a horrible chunky cement driveway. As I watched the case and phone fall, everything turned to slow motion. As it hit the ground, the impact was softened by the case and the phone popped out and slid several feet. My phone survived with teensy scratch on the corner.And that's all I have to say about that.",1035,0 +1036,"Perfect Case. + +I have never liked cases, they distract from the form and beauty of a device, they make it chunky, difficult to handle. And in the case of the Galaxy S 2, which is a gorgeously slim device, i was prepared to sacrifice its profile for the sake of safety... i'm glad i was wrong! this case is the slimmest i have used. and for the amount of protection it provides, it's remarkable! it's matte finish keeps of fingerprints, and contours the curves of the phone so well that after a while you don't notice its there.the fit is brilliant, it's tight and secure, no flex, or give anywhere, it almost becomes part of the phone.now down to the nitty-gritty, the D30 itself. A special experimental material designed to harden on impact, the d30 functions by distributing the force along its length into it's own molecules, thus converting the energy and preventing the force form being carried onto the device, which is what causes damage. While i haven't tested it to its limits, so far in my random drops, it has fared very well. Once falling from a height of about 8 feet onto concrete, and no damage at all, except to a scuff on the corner of the case. the phone is still pristine.point to note, the front of the phone is gorilla glass, and is therefore strengthened against accidents, but it is NOT unbreakable. The case doesn't protect the front obviously, except for the edges where it wraps around. this is not a problem in regular drops, in which the phone tends to drop at an angle due to its weight distribution, and land on its corner. It's very hard to accidentally drop a phone totally face down. even if you do, the few millimeter the case projects on the front should be enough to save the glass since it prevents the glass from touching the surface it is dropped on, assuming it is totally flat. But it you drop on a gravelly surface, or stones or rocks, don't expect the case to save your phone from face down drops. NOTE: these are very rare, and unusual circumstances, and wont apply to everyone. In all other situations this case is the best protection you can get for this phone, and still maintain a sexy profile.",1036,0 +1037,"Works Great + +I bought this to extend the battery life of my iPhone 5 when I am going to be on away from a charger for a long time.

Unfortunately the mounting system is poorly designed. The case itself is sufficient. Seems decently water tight, though I would not submerge it, but I am sure it will handle rain just fine.The big problem is how it connects to the bike. It uses a sort of track system, and you push it down until it snaps. But if it gets bumped upward in any way it is immediately gone. This was a problem when I first used it mountain biking. If you stand up to peddle there is a good chance you will bump it. I lost it about a half dozen times while riding. Luckily I had my headphones in and so immediately knew when it fell.I then used it for road biking the other day, thinking it would work better. But this time I made sure to tie some string from the case to my bars. After a couple small bumps it again fell off. This happened several more times and I finally gave up and stuck it in my jersey pocket.The only reason I gave this two stars is because the case itself is not to bad, though perhaps a little bulky. But the mounting system is horrible. And never even consider using it without some type of safety strap.If they were to figure out a better solution for this, then I would say it is worth the money.

There is absolutely no way you will be able to find your keys by listening for the sound, and 2) the ""separation"" alarm goes off for no reason, even in the middle of the night with cell phone and tag sitting five feet apart.What more need I say? The tag is virtually inaudible and alarms can go off randomly for no apparent reason. It is not a device you can trust. How Cobra can sell this thing is beyond me. And yes, I'm very tech savvy and this is not a case of user error. In fact, if you read more reviews you will see that others have experienced the same thing. Sorry, this is simply not ready for prime time and Cobra needs to be slapped. Seriously.",1040,0 +1041,"Mixed bag, but overall a good buy + +After reading the reviews on this product, I wasn't sure what to expect because the reviews were so varied in their complaints.The key things I've noted after several weeks of use:1) The blinking blue light isn't any more noticeable or obnoxious than any other Bluetooth headset I've used. Meaning, it's bright and somewhat annoying, but fairly normal, better than some in fact. The only way I could see it being a problem is in a small space at night. Say a car. But if you're driving with both ears covered, you've got more problems than blinking blue lights.2) The sound quality is better than 90% of the Bluetooth headsets I've tried. Way better than Jabra or Motorola. From a call perspective, it's about the same, but as a stereo headset, it's so much better. I can listen to opera and hear the high and low vocals without distortion, which was impossible on the last Jabra I had.3) It requires a pairing code!!! This is important to note. You can't pair it with a device that doesn't allow you to enter a code! So, it won't work with an off-the-shelf 3.5 or 2.5mm adapter. It pairs fine with my computer with built-in Bluetooth, and one of my cell phones because I can enter the code. It does not work with the Bluetooth dongle I bought for my MP3 player because no way to enter a pairing code. Also doesn't work with the USB Bluetooth radio I bought for my other PC. This I found annoying and was the chief reason I dropped a star from the rating. One way around this is to buy the 590A model, rather than the 590E model (the model I'm reviewing) because it comes with a paired adapter. However, the cost is much higher.4) Yes, as others have noted, this headset is made of hard plastic. The more flexible material many of us are used to in headphones is completely absent here. So, if you sit on them, as one user mentioned, you will break them. So don't sit on them. They're not tiny, so they're hardly unobtrusive.5) They are the rare over-the-head headphones. Most Bluetooth these days are behind the neck. I like behind the neck styles, but with very long hair, they're not the best option in the world. These stay on and are comfortable through several hours of wear, and haven't pulled out a single hair yet. My Jabra headphones ripped hair out constantly.6) The controls are mostly nice. I like that they're all on one ear. Some other sets have the controls spread out over the two ear phones, which I find annoying. The one thing I don't like in the controls is that I naturally think of volume as UP DOWN and tracks as BACK FORWARD. The controls are the complete opposite, which is odd to me. The UP button is track forward, the DOWN button is track back. The FORWARD button is volume up and the BACK button is volume down. I don't know who thought of that of that bit of engineering, but it shouldn't have made it out of the drawing room.Overall, I'm very happy with these headphones, there are some minor annoyances, but that can be said for every Bluetooth headphone on the market. The most important thing to me was that the sound quality be good for music play. I have many headsets for phone calls, but this was the first one that had nice music quality. I just wish it worked with a standard Bluetooth adapter. Perhaps next time.",1041,0 +1042,"Excellent as always- EDIT + +I have used a seido case for my last 2 blackberry phones.... 9810, Bold 9900 and now this 3rd one for my Z10 they have all proven durable and rugged, I prefer this style of cases as I twist the case so the phone sits horizontally on my waist and I can answer the phone real quick and comfortable (gun slinger style).This case was a simple affair to install, it has a soft rubberised inner skin which a harder skeleton type outter, that can be both installed together and of course the standard Holster.The metal kickstand is a nice touch, but doubtful I will personally use it.EDIT: I have been using this now for a few days and on reflection, i have noticed a slight ""flaw"" ... where the clip holds it in the holster is the soft rubberised inner skin (you can see in the product picture that the ""harder"" skeleton part projects out to the corners but doesn't actually cover between these points, I am guessing this is because of the On/Off switch located at the top, I hasten to add though that my Bold 9900 had the on/off switch at the top also.So, what happens is when you are clipping your phone back into the holster, the clip can sometimes snag on the inner skin. this didn't happen with my Seido case for the bold 9900 because the WHOLE case was made of the harder material (much like the outter skeleton on this one), I wish that Seido had made that part of this case ""hard"" like previous versions.I hope this makes sense? :-)",1042,0 +1043,"colors in photos aren't right + +watch is cool but be careful.. i ordered the orange one online because it looked like a cool burnt orange color.. when it came it was hideous. the colors in the photos don't match actual colors. go to the ATT store and check them out before buying it.",1043,1 +1044,"Not quite as good of a deal as I thought + +Good quality cords and nice colors. I wish they were longer too. but they are the exact length described -3 feet, so can't fault them.They are flat which helps keep them from tangling and the cord plastic has a little softness to it which gives them more flexibility and will help prevent them from cracking. Very happy with them.UPDATE: After having the cords for a few months I had to update my review, the cord part is holding up great, however the connectors are something else - so far I've had two that went bad, falling out of the socket and two that for some reason just don't fit into the device. That brings me down to 6 cables for the price and I still haven't gone through all of them yet. If the rest are good then I'm still pretty happy with the price.",1044,0 +1045,"It works... + +It works, but the hole at the top does not have the mesh, so you can see inside the phone.

It wasn't due to make it. They made it two days early.I also knew it was coming with a stylus but I had never used one. I swear I love that little thing.

I read and watch reviews I look up the specs read articles and comparisons and this then that.I came across this phone which was released in 2010. (I ordered this phone in 2012 by the way). I was drawn to it due to it's clean appearance, and it's keyboard. I INSIST ON HAVING A FULL QWERTY KEYBOARD ON MY MOBILE DEVICE.After viewing some comparisons to other phones like the iphone 4 and the sidekick 4g I decided to try it out as i could get one unlocked for around 200$ which is such a value.It arrived in the mail soon and I AM NOT DISAPPOINTED IN THE SLIGHTEST......APPEARANCE.....-FIRST of all the phone is aesthetically LOVELY.- It has a clean metallic look to it. the front has a very attractive metal border with that scratchy-metal texture that looks GREAT and a trackpad with a chrome-y finish- the screen is just the right size about as big as it can be for the the size of the phone.-It's a bit thick because of the QWERTYboard but I am ok with that and it looks good when the keyboard is slid out or put away.-The back of it has a metal battery cover with that scratchy texture to it and it looks GREAT. It is removed by sliding a small switch; not too difficult to remove yet stays in place unlike many other phones......BUILD QUALITY......-The phone has some weight to it and feels sturdy. I have not dropped it yet and that is because I have trained my mind to prevent me from dropping phones over the years. I did get a nice-looking snap on cover for it and a screen protector just in case.-The keyboard is attached to the phone with what HTC calls a ""Z-hinge"". It consists of three appropriately shaped metal pieces that hold the two halves of the phone together in a way that looks like a Z when viewed from the side.-The hinges are made of metal so good luck breaking them they look and feel SOLID yet they do not cause the phone to snap harshly on itself when the keyboard comes out.-The phone is made of quality materials through and through from the metallic pieces on the front to the textured metal battery cover- just feels great to look at and hold in your hand.-regular size headphone jack and mini usb as well as a micro SD slot next to the battery do their job.....KEYBOARD+BUTTONS.....-I mentioned earlier that I INSIST on having a QWERTYboard on my phone.-Though this phone does NOT HAVE THE BEST KEYBOARD on a phone...- IT IS THE BEST ANDROID PHONE WITH A KEYBOARD THAT I HAVE EXPERIENCED.-The keyboard has all of your letters of the alphabet with enter,delete, space, comma, period, as well as an...-""@"" and a "".com"" keys which are very useful.-each key has alternate forms which are achieved by the shift and alt keys.-the keyboard on this is capable of accomplishing just about any typing task that your computer keyboard can accomplish EXCEPT....-It does NOT HAVE NUMBER KEYS, instead it has alt-forms of the top row of keys so if you want to type numbers you have to hit alt first then use the top row of keys. It's a bit of a let down but acceptable as a sacrifice in order to keep the keyboard and its buttons just the right size and I dont type numbers that often anyhow.-There are also three shortcut keys which can be configured to open whatever app or menu that you choose as well as...-a search key which can be pressed at the same time as any other key to run even more configurable shortcuts (like the sidekick).-if you are to embrace this system of keyboard shortcut commands you can get around your phone incredibly fast. Much faster than you would be able to by tapping through menus on your touch screen which this phone also has.-It has a sleep button at the top right. It works.-It has a volume rocker on the left. Also works.-camera button on the lower right side. It is made of the same metal as the battery cover and the border on the front of the phone. It also works but I feel like i have to hold it down for too long for it to activate. Very minor gripe.-trackpad can be pressed down to make selections and you can slide your finger on it to navigate through menus. I use it mostly when correcting typing errors.-if you chose to; by using a combination of the keyboard shortcuts and the track pad; this phone can be operated just as effectively and even faster than if you used the touch screen alone . But it is ideal to take advantage of all of its inputs if you want to maximize your effectiveness and efficiency in navigating through your phone..... Touchscreen .....-3.7 inches. The touch screen is certainly large enough for me and probably as big as it can be on a phone of this size.-It is responsive yet not overly sensitive if you have oily hands like I do. I have tried other touchscreens that were too sensitive and the oil from my fingers would cause issues when using the touchscreen. This phone does not have that issue. I AM VERY PLEASED WITH THIS PHONE'S TOUCHSCREEN.-It has multi-touch and pinch-to -zoom and they are VERY RESPONSIVE.-It has Swype pre-installed which is in my opinion the best way to type on a touchscreen and it is very smart. seems to always know what i meant to type and the rare typing errors are usually my fault for not yet having mastered the sliding technique.-The touchscreen is implemented full and well. You can totally get everything done without having to slide out your keyboard such as messaging browsing calls and apps just as well as any non-keyboard smartphone.- the keyboard shines when you are trying to write lengthy emails with correct grammar or while writing a paper while on the bus while doing research at the same time on the browser.- you must experience using your phone with keyboard commands + a touchscreen to understand how fast, effective, and efficiently you can get important things done on your phone which is why I INSIST ON HAVING A KEYBOARD ON MY PHONE FOR THE THIRD TIME!!..... CAMERA+MIC+SPEAKER ......-5 megapixels is more than enough for a phone. Images look great; detailed, in focus, bright colors. PLEASED-720p HD video quality is surprisingly good. Videos looks clean, detailed, smooth, sound quality is also good. great for enhancing and sharing memories and uploading to youtube.-The pre-installed camera app is basic. Not many features but if u need a more robust camera app you can just download one from the play store.-Mic gets clean sound. People will understand you over the phone and videos will have sound quality to match the video quality.-Speaker is good for a phone more than loud enough. The alarm wakes me at low volume you will be able to hear your phone ring if its nearby. Music sounds okay on it if you want to show a song to your friend or watch a video without headphones....... SOFTWARE......- THIS PHONE IS FAST. Apps load instantly and run smoothly with no lag. I have had it for over a month now and it has not frozen or crashed EVER even when multitasking.- Browsing is FAST and SMOOTH. Pages load quickly and pinch-to-zoom is super-responsive pages WILL NOT lag- if you are on a page that is messy, heavy, and not optimized for performance you MAY experience minimal lag.-Downloads are FAST-Videos stream instantly and play smoothly-compatible with just about every app such as netflix, youtube, sketchbook, office apps and etc.-THIS phone can run just about any game from the app store including games with 3d graphics with NO LAG. G-bike and Dragon Slayer are two examples of games with heavy 3D visuals that run smooth on this phone.-Emulators run smooth as well. YOU CAN TURN THIS PHONE INTO A NES SNES GBA OR N64 by installing FREE EMULATORS from the google play store HOW NUTS IS THAT??!-YOU CAN ASSIGN KEYS FROM THE KEYBOARD TO FUNCTION AS INPUT FOR THE EMULATOR!!!-I found the performance on this phone to be SUPERB in every way. You will not be disappointed.- Almost forgot to mention the MP3 player.... YEA ITS GREAT TOO.-Oh and the phone+phone book is also perfect and responsive syncs with your facebooks and twitters and googles.-Lack of a front-facing camera is a slight let down.... BATTERY.....-The battery that this phone ships with satisfies.-it is always advisable to allow the battery to charge fully before turning it on for the first time though many people will not be able to do that.-On a full charge this phone can last more than 4 days sleeping.-with regular usage which includes browsing music messages and phone calls I easily get 2 sometimes 3 days of battery life but I allow my battery to drain fully before i charge it.-Note that to conserve battery I only turn on GPS or wifi when I am about to use them and the screen is set to automatic brightness.......CLOSING.....-Despite this phone coming out in 2010 it STILL competes with phones from this year and in some cases even defeats them.-Runs android 2.3.4 which is a fantastic OS and UI. If u root this phone u can upgrade the OS further but that is probably not necessary.-This device excels everywhere from its build quality, to its features, to its implementation of software.-This phone can help you get important tasks done on the go.-This is a very productive, versatile, efficient, carefully designed device that has ALOT to offer and you will have a hard time replacing it.-If u like gaming on the go THIS PHONE DELIVERS!!!!-Great keyboard-Fast smooth performance-PREEEETTY--You will have a hard time finding a better deal for a badass android smartphone like this one.-very few flaws. No front cam. No Number keys... that's it-BEST PHONE I'VE EVER OWNED!!!",1053,0 +1054,"Beware !! The Watch stopped working and will not charge. I ... + +The Watch stopped working and will not charge.

I had just picked up a Galaxy S4 and of course a new phone needs new accessories, right? The fish eye lens alone is well worth the price of admission. It does exactly as advertised. The Macro and Wide angle also do as advertised but neither produce the ""wow"" factor I was looking for like the fish eye does. Each lens screws (and unscrews) from the clip (which is padded where it makes contact with the phone) and you simply line the accessory lens up using the phone's camera view until the clip body is no longer visible to the phone's camera. This sounds more complicated than it is and usually takes me less than 5 to 10 seconds to get right.The only negative aspect to the kit is probably unique to my phone and that is simply that the clip interferes with the built-in flash which essentially renders the flash unusable. Certainly not a deal breaker at this price point, but it is a minor annoyance.

Trust me when I say this holster "really" works and my phone has never dislodged itself even once. It is comfortable and the antenna no longer pokes me in the side as it did with both of the previous holsters.

The volume is pathetic and has to be on full even when it's sitting right in front of me. I read a review of this product where someone compared it favorably to the competition, declaring it has a fuller bass. REALLY?There is NO bass tone at all. The bass-lines are tinny and thin and some of the instruments are barely audible. The tiny built in speakers on the Kindle itself sound better than the BRAVEN 600 and I stopped using it the first day I received it. I haven't had a chance to send it back or even find out if I'm entitled to a refund now. The last time I ordered something online from a person using amazon to sell their defective electronics I got burned with a broken netbook. From now on I'll only buy directly from amazon or another reputable company. The other day I was in a BestBuy and listened to the demo models of some of the popular brands. The treble was clean, crisp and loud and the bass was thick and juicy on all of them. The difference between them and the Brazen 600 was equivilent to the difference between a clarinet and a kazoo! And they ranged in price from $99-$200. The Brazen was so small and worthless yet cost $199.

I was able to reconnect the pieces a couple times till finally the two retaining ears broke making it unable to attach the clip to it anymore.

There are just so many good things about this phone and the Windows Phone 8 OS that it is tough to know where to start. I suppose I should start out by stating that I am somewhat of a Windows ""fanboy"" for lack of a better word. I am all in when it comes to Microsoft products owning the Xbox 360, Surface RT tablet, Windows 8 Pro laptop and of course Windows Phone. That being said I do try to rate products fairly but I wanted you the reader to know that there may be some bias in my review.I have owned several Windows Phones over the past few years. The Samsung Focus, Focus 2, HTC Titan, Lumia 900 and now the Lumia 920. I have thoroughly enjoyed each of the phones but the 920 certainly stands out as to what I feel is finally a true competitor to the Iphones and Samsungs of the world.This phone has some serious specs and can hold its own against its rivals when it comes to pure processing power. Everything is super smooth on this phone. Apps launch quickly, the internet is super speedy thanks to the LTE and the camera snaps pic after pic without a stutter. I finally feel that my phone isn't preventing me from doing anything that I want to do with it. I am very impressed with the power and speed of the 920.SCREEN: The screen is just gorgeous. It has a super high resolution which makes everything look soooo good. Text is easy to read and pictures just come to life (corny but true!) The screen also has a super sensitive mode where you can actually wear winter gloves and still control the phone as normal. It is pretty amazing the first time I tried this. You can also shut this off so you have complete control as to whether to use it or not.CAMERA: If you like to take pictures with your phone then this really is the phone for you. Nokia has done some amazing things with their camera technology here. The image stabilization for photos and videos is second to none. I have pretty shaky hands but all my pics and vids come out super smooth with this phone. The night time is where the camera tech really shines. Whether you are indoors or outdoors with poor to almost no light this camera still takes really bright and clear pics! It really is a must have feature if you like to take pics. The camera on this phone has replaced my need for a separate point and shoot camera. No joke. It is that good. If I were to critique the camera in any way it would be to say that the pics sometimes come out a little ""soft"" when taking pics during the day. Nokia has already stated that they plan a soon to be released update that allows for sharper pics so that negative could very well vanish in the near future.SOUND: I have never really been impressed with the sound quality of any phone I have ever had as far as playing music through the speakers without headphones. It is no different for me with the 920. The stereo speakers are ok but I wouldn't recommend listening to music without headphones. Once you do hook up your favorite pair of headphones the sound is much improved. Nokia uses Dolby Headphone technology and the sound the phone produces while using earbuds is impressive. The volume isn't the loudest but definitely loud enough to easily block out any outside noises. Also, no earbuds come with the phone.CALL QUALITY: So far I have no complaints with the call quality. When I ask people how I sound they say everything sounds good. I can also hear them easily and clearly through the earpiece. I am not a huge phone user on my phone (doh!) but so far I have had a very pleasant experience on calls.BATTERY LIFE: So far I am getting better than expected battery life. I thought with LTE I would be burning through a charge in 4 or 5 hours but so far I am easily making it through an entire work day with moderate use. I can take the phone off the charger at 5:30 AM and when I go to bed at around 10 or 11 at night I still have about 15-25 percent left. To me that is more than adequate. The battery does seem to get a bit warm when playing games or really pushing the LTE but I think that is pretty normal for these powerful phones.WIRELESS CHARGING: I purchased my 920 through an ATT store which was running a promotion for a free wireless charger. The 920 has that ability built right into the phone! It is pretty darn useful too. I keep the charging plate right on my nightstand and when I am done reading in bed I just place it on the pad and it starts to charge. No need to fumble with cords.BUILD QUALITY: This is one SOLID phone. I don't plan on dropping it but I would have to say that I would worry more about what I drop this on then the phone itself. This actually leads to what may be a downside for some people. The phone, compared to other phones, is a little heavier. I don't find it to be an issue and in fact like the strong feel of the phone but go to the store and check it out because some have noted that it bothered them.APPS: The Lumia 920 comes with Nokia Drive which is a really nice navigation app that easily compares to the paid version out there. I have used it a bunch of times and it has worked flawlessly every time. You also get a Microsoft Office suite which includes PowerPoint, Word, Excel and One Note. While I don't see myself creating complex spreadsheets on a phone it certainly is nice to be able to open and edit if I need to.OK, it looks like I rambled on way too long. I hope you found some useful info in my review. If you have any specific questions you want answers to just leave a comment and I will try to answer them all.",1064,0 +1065,"Duh... + +Ignore any previous reviews.

Duh duh duh...Anyway, being a salesman of cell phones, I can tell you that with proper use, this battery will last you much longer than any previous models. Just don't be stupid and do things like constantly charging your phone using a Cigarette lighter adapter. Quick charge, quick die people. Also, make sure to stop in to your carrier's store every now and then to have the newest software put on your phone so that it's getting the best signal and using the least amount of energy. Just ask them what that means, they'll explain it.

Not recommended for anybody",1074,1 +1075,"Awful installation process + +When I opened the package and saw a tiny spray bottle and a plastic squeegie, I knew getting the film onto the phone would be a complicated process. After reading the first few lines of the instruction booklet, I was disappointed. Here is the first line of instructions, quote:""BEFORE YOU BEGIN: Turn your device off, and remove the battery if possible. Please leave your device off for 24 hours...""Unfortunately, I cannot turn my cell phone off for 24 hours, and I doubt very many people can anymore. Assuming you skip the ""24 hours"" part and move on, you're then instructed to wet your fingertips with the application solution to prevent fingerprints from appearing on the film while handling it. At this point I was about to give up, but I tried anyways. Next I had to peel off the film from the paper backing, which normally would be easy to do, but my fingers became slick from the spraying in step one. After some fumbling, the film came off and I was ready to put it on the phone, but wait! Before I could do that, the instructions told me to spray the adhesive side of the film before placing it on the phone. I sprayed the film a few times and managed to place it on the phone. The next step was to use the squeegee to smooth out bubbles and remove excess moisture from the film. This part worried me the most. I was concerned with pushing this excess moisture into the seam between the cell phone housing and the plastic screen, so at this point I stopped. The final line in the instructions seemed almost comical:""Micro-bubbles and imperfections will work themselves out in two or three days""I can't speak to the film's ability to protect the screen as I never reached that point, but the installation process was just terrible. Had I known that the installation involved spray solution and wetting the film, I would not have purchased the product. Other screen protection products I have used in the past required no solution and were much easier to put on the phone, so I suggest looking elsewhere to protect your Droid X's screen.",1075,0 +1076,"A must have at the office, home, and travel. + +Get rid of all those other adapters, once and for all. This is device is smart... it actually adjusts the power to meet the device's needs. I know this is true because this the only device I've seen that charge my crappy company-supplied Blackberry. My older model Blackberry would only charge with low power chargers. It shut off the charging port on all my other high-powered chargers (I could only charge with a BB charger). Now, I can charge my BB, iPad, Android, and any other 2 gizmos I can throw at it. And, only use one AC outlet. Don't waste money on overpriced 1 or 2 port adapters, this is all I should ever need.FYI, I purchased a Bolse earlier, but there's no caparison. It was 3 bucks cheaper (what was I thinking!?). The Bolse forces you to use certain ports for certain devices, whereas the Anker does not. The Bolse has an obnoxious light and is bigger. The Anker comes in black or white.

I think they put much thought into the design of this product. I bought this for my iPhone 5S for when I work out at the gym. These can be worn two ways, under the ear like traditional headsets or over the ear. While the over the ear look cool, I found it a bit annoying so I switched back to traditional.I agree that the ear tips are not very comfortable for a unit of this price range. No matter what the size I selected, I could not get a comfortable seal. Just as others have done I switched to theComply Tx-500 Isolation PLUS Earphone Tips (Black, 3 Pairs, Medium). These appear to seal better and offer better sound and are more comfortable as they use a memory foam material. I wasn't planning on spending an additional 20 bucks for ear tips though.Now to the odd interface issue. By design, you are to be able to press one of the 3 buttons and advance a track and another one of the three to go backward a track. On mine, the button does not back up a track, instead it replays the current track from the beginning. Initially, customer support responded saying that it could not be doing that but after I told them it is and was wondering if this unit is compatable with iPhone 5S. I heard from them and they stated ""Your phone has the best in bluetooth tech so the Bluebuds X will be fully compatible with your iPhone 5s. However, the back track function will only get you to the beginning of the current song. To go back even further, you would have to use the track functions on your device"".One minor annoyance. As others have said, whenever you increase and decrease the volume, you get a beep which is not necessary IMO.Good Move- The unit is guaranteed for life from damage by perspiration which is great for gym users or runners etc.CONCLUSION: Although this unit is expensive and has drawbacks, the sound is so good it is hard to not like them overall.#### follow up 1/7/2014 ###The unit stopped working! This after less than 60 days use. I have lowered the star rating to 1.",1078,0 +1079,"Pretty cool with a few things you should know before purchasing + +First of all I really liked these as you can tell by my 4 star rating.Pros:1. Sound is pretty good for what they are.2. have nice rubber feet so they stay in place well3. Look nice4. Water effects work as advertised with one caveat (see cons)5. Simple to set up and useCons:1. No bass2. water output is proportional to volume which means that in order to get the water to reach up high you need to have the volume up pretty high3. cord between speakers is only 1.2 meters and there is no way to extend this distance4. On the white speakers, the light can be seen through the plastic5. The water effects only react to one channel.6. The water chamber is made of plastic and can scratch easily7. no power adapter so have to use a USB port or find an old phone usb charging adapter.I have read a few reviews that have been posted and I agree with some of the negatives. Mine came and it said "made in china" on the box but it had a sticker that said Leading Edge. Whether these are cheap knockoffs or not I'm not sure. To be honest even if it's a knockoff, it's prob made by the same factory that makes the authentic ones. That being said, they seem to be built decently. I took mine apart and it looked like a well built and clean PCB on the amp and logic board.Power output: One thing that was interesting to me was that this is advertised as a 6 watt speaker.... I'm not certain how this is possible since USB 2.0 spec is 5 Volts at 0.5 - 0.9 amps... This means that the maximum power that standard USB 2.0 can put out is 4.5 watts. On the box print itself, it says "operating voltage 4.5V - 5V" and "operating current 280 mA - 600 mA". This would mean a maximum power rating according to their own specifications of 3 watts total. Yet they also state that it's 3 watts X2. So I'm not certain how they are able to come up with the remaining 1.5 - 3 watts... Headphone jacks only put out miliwatts. I think the numbers are a bit fudged here.Sound Quality: First of all do not expect audiophile sound and you won't be disappointed. These sound decent for little speakers but if you are getting them for sound, then look elsewhere. There is no bass, the mids are underrepresented also. The highs are a bit of a strain on the ears at high volume and there is plenty of distortion all around.Water effects: The water effects are done by very ingeniously by a simple brushed DC motor with an impeller so it should be relatively durable. The "water" itself seems to be something that isn't water at all. If I had to guess it looks like mineral oil. It's definitely more viscous than water. There are no warnings of any toxic material so mineral oil would be a decent guess since it is relatively inert.Other Thoughts: I really wish the cord between the speakers was longer than 1.2 meters in length. The wires inside the cable look like they are about 28 gauge multi-strand which makes it understandable why they don't want to go more than 1.2 meters in distance. I would have paid $1 more to have them use a lower gauge wire and have a longer cord. Also would have been nice if they included a usb power adapter.Final Thoughts:These things are pretty darn cool. I bought 5 of them to give as gifts. Kids love them. They are unusual and fun. Just don't expect too much in the sound department. I'm probably going to modify mine to allow for the full water effect at a lower volume and use other speakers for the sound. It is actually pretty easy to disconnect the speaker itself and just run it as a water effect.

Another great thing about this device is that it can work with Netflix as well, so you can project a movie onto the side of your house, while having a nice little fire, which I have done myself, and it was very fun.

The Kindle fire screen protectors are not as rubbery they go on easily you dont have to bother with the water. They cover the main part of the Nabi 2.

It's very rare that anything I order is exactly what I expected. The case is pleasant to hold and doesn't get in the way of any iPhone functions even though the buttons are protected. There are little flaps that protect the headphone jack and the charging port from foreign matter. A sturdy belt-clip holster is included.I don't like stick-on screen protectors so the sliding screen is perfect for me. You open and close it by sliding a tab on the back of the phone. I wonder how long it will last because screens like that tend to fatigue and break, but it's modular and it's likely that you can get a new one if and when necessary.As far as surviving the tests shown on the website, I'm also skeptical but I really don't care because all I need is protection from day-to-day bumps and scratches.

After testing it extensibly, the conclusion is it looks good, has good features, and is easy to use. However, I think most reviews stop here, and very few focus on the most important feature of a Bluetooth speakerphone: the sound, not the one you hear, but how well people on the other end can hear and understand you. That is where this otherwise nice product fails. The road noise was unbelievable, even while driving at 10-20 mph on a smooth road, in a very new car. Yes, when you are using it, you can hear your caller loud and clear, but your caller can barely understand your words. I think if most reviewers looked carefully into this, there would probably be more negative reviews. We tried this product for weeks, in multiple conditions, with multiple callers. All complained about the same: excessive noise, and a conversation that just could not be followed.Unfortunately, I returned this speakerphone. I then purchased the Jabra TOUR here on Amazon, and what a difference!! Not only is it slightly cheaper, but the sound quality on the other end of the line is just amazing. On the Jabra TOUR, voice sounds much clearer, road noise is not nearly as pronounced, and the features are pretty much the same.

I originally really enjoyed the phone, but after two months I can't stand it. It works extremely well as a phone, but as a smartphone it's mediocre. There are hundreds of positive reviews. I'll list the negative aspects I found with this phone.-Lack of RAMWith only 512mb of RAM, multitasking on this phone stinks. If you are browsing the web, and reply to a text message, you will see "Resuming..." when you try to switch back and forth the two apps. Not only is this annoying, but Internet Explorer will lose your 'recent browsing history' so when you hit the back button, instead of going to the previous page, it will take you to the main launcher screen. This is incredibly annoying.-Lack of storage spaceIt has 8gb of space. Over 5gb is used by Windows Phone operating system. There is a Micro SD card, but you can not install apps to the Micro SD card. It can only be used for music, video, photos. So you only have a few gbs to store apps. I never experienced a problem with lack of storage space on a phone until I used this phone, and I ran out of space within two months.-Lack of appsThere are games on Windows Phone. But that's about it. I only use a few apps, and none of them are on Windows Phone. The store has a lot of fake apps, too. You may think you are downloading Google Chrome, but its really a fake app that is filled with ads. When using Internet Explorer, you will find 'bugs' when trying to access some websites. There aren't very many alternatives (and many are just overlays based on Internet Explorer) so it will be impossible to do some things. For example, I can't log into my local bank's website because every time I try to enter my user name the keyboard pops down as soon as I type one letter.-No File Explorer, And Poor File HandlingThere is no file explorer on this phone. When you connect it to a PC, you can see a couple folders for your Photos, Music, and Videos. It's locked up tight. If you use an app to create something, you have to store it on the cloud. That's a big pain in the butt. Not only that, but the only way you can add music or videos to the phone is by either purchasing them through the store, or connecting the phone to your PC. If you try to download an MP3, you will be able to listen to it, but you won't be able to save it.-Random "Find My Phone" GlitchesI set my phone up on windowsphone.com so I could log onto the website and have Microsoft ring my phone, or lock it whenever I couldn't find it. It really worked awesome the first couple times I tried it. Then one day, I tried to do it told me "Windows is having trouble locating your phone."A couple days later, at 4:30 AM, my phone started ringing. It was the same 'ring' that comes on whenever Windows is trying to find my phone. I tried to silence it, but guess what? It kept ringing. I had to take my battery out, because when I restarted the phone it did it again. I don't know what happened, if hackers are able to ring Windows Phones, or what, Microsoft did not reply to my support email on the subject.-Alarm Not LoudI used to use my phone as my alarm clock. Unless I've developed a medical condition in the past two months, this phone does not work very well in that aspect. The built in alarm sounds are pretty weak, and overall volume is pretty low.-No notificationsUnless you have a bunch of live tiles set up, there is no way of getting notifications, like in iOS or on Android. If I get outbid on an eBay auction, for example, I don't know unless I check. Same goes for text and emails. Although, I guess I should say that the phone does make an alert sound when it receives a text or email.-No Siri or Google Now ThingI always thought Google Now was stupid. But I used it more than I realized. Lumia has voice search which can be accessed by holding your finger over the Windows button, which is pretty good when it comes to converting my voice to text. The problem is, if I say something like "Set an alarm for 2:30PM" instead of setting an alarm for 2:30, it searched Bing for "set an alarm for 2:30PM"-Bad CameraMaybe I got a dud. It's 5 megapixels, but it doesnt have flash. So, I can't use it as a flashlight. Seriously though, I'm not impressed with the camera. When I take a picture of my kids, it usually turns out blurry. My old Nokia 5800 from 2008 has a 3 megapixel camera, and it works much better. I'm not a photographer, but I like to take pictures of my kids.

Would definately recommend to others.",1104,0 +1105,"highly recommended + +The best screen saver ever!! Super super easy to apply! My keys dropped on my phone and there was no mark of any kind!!!! Love love love this product!",1105,0 +1106,"It works + +Easy to install and re-set during installation. The trick is making sure your hands, screen and work area are clean before installing this on your phone. For my HTC Inspire this only goes on one way. Although it's not very obvious the lower corners of the phone screen are more round than the upper corners. So if the screen protector edges are sticking out over the screen you got it on the wrong end. I found out the hard way and wasted the first sheet. By the time I turned it around I already got some lints on the screen. Thankfully, I remembered a previous review regarding turning the piece around to make the sheet fit right and did it for the 2nd sheet with went on nicely.Unfortunately the instruction did not mention anything about which way it goes on the phone. Thankfully, there are 3/pack. If the mfr is consistent with their packaging, the end with the tabs for removing the outer disposable sheets should go to the lower end of the phone screen. Also, it's abit difficult to remove the outer sheet which causes the screen protector to lift from your phone screen after you have set it.Overall, I recommend this product. Not bad for under $5.00",1106,0 +1107,"Beautiful and sleek, but Needs an off Switch to the Sound Processing + +Halo was a popular headset, so I was excited to try this unit. The design is very minimalist and beautiful, like something out of the Bang & Olufsen line. The build quality with all plastic material borders on feeling cheap, but probably saved by the matte headband finish and velour lining. Impression on the sound quality, however, was disappointing, mostly due to ""surround"" sound processing that cannot be turned off. Let me try to break it down:Likes:- Style: build quality aside, this is a beautifully designed headset that looks its part. It also managed to have extendable headband without breaking the clean lines. Style is subjective, but for me it is appealing.- Control: contrary to many who found it problematic, I grew to like the touch sensitive volume control from initial ambivalence. It allows volume adjustment very quickly but not inaccurately. It also registers next/previous tracks with double taps on the top and bottom, which also worked well, though it can be a little tricky at first to find the right corners. Touching it accidentally is possible, but seeing how it takes 2 very long and directional swipes from minimum to maximum volume, it isn't as easy to do or as damaging as one might think.- Easy dual pairing: I paired it with my PC and phone, both connects immediately when the headset turns on, and switches between A2DP stereo profile and headset (mono) profile readily and without problems (note: you can't hear stereo during a call/conference that uses its microphone, as it will use a headset profile. Only by using a separate microphone will allow full sound quality during voice conference).- Using this for voice dialogues has been great--sound picks up clearly from the noise cancelling microphone and the mid-range enhanced quality of the headphones also makes for clear voice sounds.- Uses a widely available generic micro-USB charging port. The included USB cable and charging cable are both fairly long, and you can listen while you charge.Don't like so much:- Fit and Comfort: The simple design also makes it feel like having a clamp on your head. There is very little articulation (if at all) of the earpads, which can sit on top of your ear in a slightly awkward way. The velour material is not well padded and does not make for a comfortable experience. The same said material also doesn't provide much friction. The headset can pivot on your ears and fall off fairly easily on movement.- The velour lining material attracts lint fairly easily.- This product can better be served with a real on/off switch. As it is, I don't think the folding design really saves much space at all to make it truly portable, or its tendency to fall off on movement really inspiring confidence for portable use. I use this primarily at home, and having to snap+slide the arm every time I want to turn it on and off seems like unnecessary wear and tear on the flimsy-looking plastic hinge/latch. They could have easily done it with the single physical button as an added function, without any more hardware switch implementation.- The sound: This is my biggest gripe, with all the others being minor. There is built in ""surround sound"" processing. However, as we can imagine, surround sound isn't really possible on a headset. What the processing essentially does, is do partial channel cross mixing. In other words, the channel separation isn't complete. There is a bit of right channel bleeding into the left, and vice versa. This has been tried in the high end headphone amps to create a pseudo sound stage and arguably reduce listening fatigue.However, the processing resulted in several artifacts which you may find problematic if you are semi-serious about your music. There is audible distortion in even low volumes--and yes I chose my sources carefully and understand the limitations of A2DP being lossy--and occasionally rather obvious it's distracting.There is a veiled hollowness to the sound, a distant feel that makes you struggle to hear your favorite music track's original fullness and detail--which is no longer there. The mid-range sounds emphasized, which is great for voice communications, but that's also contributing to a slightly ""tinny"" quality in music tracks. The highs are surprisingly subdued. There is obviously artificial enhancement to the bass, but it is not very deep. The bass concentrates on the mid-bass region, with the deepest frequencies missing. However, for an over-the-ear transducer, the amount of mid-bass response is not unimpressive, and for many that may be enough cover up for all its other sound artifacts. In short, the frequency responses are clustered in the mid to mid-bass regions,colored by ""surround sound"" characteristics and distortion.I wish Jabra had at least provided a way to switch off the sound processing. That would have at least allowed for its full potential to be revealed, or possibly achieved with some user equalization. As of now the distortion alone would ruin it beyond equalization correction. If you care about the absolute sound quality of your music, this is probably a skip. However, if you are just a casual listener, use it often for voice communication and non-critical stereo sounds, like thumpy mid-bass, don't need to run/walk around with it, the Halo2 does an decent job with a sleek design that is easy to love.",1107,0 +1108,"Very heavy and uncomfortable to wear + +This headphone has execellent sound quality but it is so heavy and uncomfortable to wear that it is almost useless.

Odd...I really like the HT820, and I'd even contemplate keeping it, if it weren't for the glaring miss by Motorola. They offer no dongle to attach to a mp3 player, something portable...I mean don't get me wrong, I ordered the DC800 and think it works great, but it's wired...AKA no battery, AKA pointless if you want to...oh, I dunno...leave.I've tried multiple dongles, from generic available on ebay, to one offered by Brookstone, to one I purchased with the IO Gear bluetooth set. All were A2DP profile, and none would sync with the headphones. They would sync with my usb bluetooth adapter just fine, as would the HT820, but something was missing in the translation between just the stereo dongle and the headphones. It's rather frustrating, and response from Motorola has been slow and...well...dumb. I'm sorry, but I feel that if you sell a product, you might want to actually inform your customer service staff as to the issues with it and basic information. Most were more clueless than I am about the technology and the availability of the ht820.I would definitely purchase this product again, I used it with my computer to listen to music, and I used it to answer phone calls, both worked fabulously. Altho it does have a shorter range and doesn't seem to send it's signal through more layers of walls, as the IO Gear did with no problem. But the integrated mic has good pickup and isn't ungainly, which is one of the IO Gear's problems. The other great thing is the fact that the listening time on it is 14 hours, and I've pushed that and it's gotten close, before I ended up charging it again.",1110,0 +1111,"Short Lived + +My experience with this battery mirrors a previous reviewer: worked for light-duty use slightly over a year -- just long enough to invalidate the warranty -- and then petered out.

Original Apple - These have always sucked. I use them only if no alternative is available.2. Original Bose in-ear - Broke in six months, $100 down the tube.3. Various Sony in-ear - All good, with nice sound and well-designed cases. However, as with other in-ear products they eventually irritated my ear. Plus I wanted a mic.4. Upgraded Apple in-ear - Better than the original, but not better sound than the Sony ones for twice the price. The microphone was helpful and I could use them with a motorcycle helmet. Anyway, these broke after three months of light use.5. Bose MIE2 - Bought to replace the broken Apple ones. I wanted a mic, so decided to try these. The sound is the best of all the above, and they are by far the most comfortable. The earpiece design seems to allow them to stay in my ear without actually irritating it.Note to Bose: The packaging is horrendous; please worry less about the few shoplifters and more about your real customers.

Anyway, If you have an EVO 3D, and need an extended battery, this is the one for you.

This phone is ridiculously refined. The device itself is about the same size as the HTC One, yet the screen is larger thanks to a thin bezel and the Quad HD resolution makes all images look very crisp. Unlike the South Korean model, the US model does not come with the antenna for FM radio. I personally think its to limit warranty repairs, and not due to the actual cost of including the FM radio, but that's neither here nor there.The phone itself comes with ONE battery, I don't know why someone answered the question on here saying it comes with two. It has one. The back cover is removable, and once you remove the battery you'll be able to insert your SIM card. Also, right above the SIM card slot is the microSD slot. I've confirmed my 32GB SanDisk works fine, giving me a total of 64GB space. Separately, LG claims that microSD cards up to 2TB are supported. I can't confirm that since the largest I have the 32GB. I've thrown my music library onto the microSD card and I set the camera to save pics there as well. This way if the phone ever gets damaged (water damage included) I can pop out the microSD card and still get to all my pictures that I may or may not have had a chance to back up.The camera itself is very nice, it takes pictures quickly and has a laser auto-focus feature. Literally, the phone has a laser on the back.The interface that LG includes with the phone is nice as well. One complaint not geared towards LG but Android in general, is once you set your phone to be encrypted, you can no longer use Knock Codes to unlock your phone. You are stuck with either password or pass code (digits). Minor drawback but I'll take security over a little convenience and lose out on that neat feature. I will clarify though, you CAN still double tap your phone to wake it up, and then double tap it again to make it sleep.The phone also processes ""OK Google"" commands near flawlessly. I'm able to compose text messages, emails, set calendar reminders, get directions, make phone calls, etc. just by saying ""OK Google"" and then telling it what I want it to do. I realize other phones have this feature too, like my LG G Flex did, but this phone just seems to process it faster. With normal usage during the day, the battery will still have about 25-30% by 11pm.Oh, for those interested, take screenshots by pressing and holding the Vol Down + Power button at the exact same time. Very useful when you want to beat a friend in ""Words with Friends"" through the cheat app.In summary, the main draw to this phone is the INSANE display that will make everybody jealous. Apple's latest iPhone has nothing on this LG G3. Expandable memory, replaceable battery, 4K video recording, Quad HD resolution, laser focusing 13MP camera, and convenient power and volume buttons make this the phone to have.",1122,0 +1123,"This surely isn't what Otterbox is capable of... + +I purchased an Otterbox Defender case for my HTC Desire, going on the recommendations of others with Otterboxes for I-phones. There really isn't much that I can say about this case that is good for this model of phone. I need dust protection and Otterbox claims that (copy and pasted from their website)""About our Defender Series: An innovative three layer design protects your HTC Desire from bumps, drops, scratches and dust while keeping your phone fresh as new"".I do woodworking for a living and there's a fair amount of dust in my pockets, in the air and in the general area... and in my Otterbox case. A lot of dust. It sifted under the screen, it got trapped between the camera lens and the case to the point of laughability... in about 3 days of carrying the Otterbox. The silicone skin does NOT fasten to the case well at all. It's unhooked every time I pulled it from my pocket. Every time. I assumed (and that is my mistake) that I would get some small level of water resistance with the Otterbox case. No way. I sweat quite a bit in the summer and it's always a concern that I'm going to ruin a phone with moisture.After the second email to Otterboxes customer service they finally answered me with this... (copy and paste)""The Defender Series for the HTC Desire has openings in the screen protector to allow access to the front buttons. Unfortunately, the trade-off to this is that it is more susceptible to dust intrusion. This was necessary to ensure that the device functions as it should. Our smartphone cases are not designed to be resistant to moisture and so it would be not affected in this way.""So the customer service denies the advertising that you DO get dust protection. They didn't even address the problem with the silicone skin not staying on.In short, I'm returning it. I would not recommend this case for the HTC phone to anyone.

They are extremely accurate..I have not found a song or type of music that throws them off. If I had to describe the sound profile, I would call it colorfully neutral. I would say that these are bass forward just a tad, mids are balanced and slightly highlighted, and highs are crisp, accurate, not shrill or painful, and probably just a tiny bit subdued.These headphones actually sound better when they are used wirelessly as the quality of the amp they have is astounding and makes all the difference. I am not saying that they don't sound good with the wire, but for the full appreciation of these, you should try them over Bluetooth and let them dazzle you. They come with a rechargeable battery, so you don't have to burn through batteries like the Bose line. Also, unlike the Bose line, the work (albeit no noise canceling or wireless) when the battery is dead via the cable, and they work while charging.Pairing them to your Bluetooth item is pretty easy, and once it has been done once, it is pretty much automatic.Controls on the right ear take a bit to get used to, but work as advertised. Noise canceling is not quite as good as the Bose, but the sound is so much richer that I could not possibly trade these for the little difference in active noise canceling levels.IF I had to mention shortfalls, I would have to say that the cord that comes with it is a bit short, and the noise isolation to the outside world is, while not bad, noticeable in a quite room at 3/4 volume. Bear in mind though, that these really can get loud. I would say that they are probably twice as loud as any pair of Bose I have tried, so the leakage to the outside may be unavoidable at the volumes that you will crave to listen to music on these (it is that good).Tried a phone call on them, they are easy to switch over to the call with one touch of a button the right ear, they automatically mute what you were listening to, and they sound natural on both ends of the call.",1126,0 +1127,"Awesome protection + +Absolutely love this product for my iPhone 5!!!

Huge mistake. I used these for quite some time, to ensure I wasn't missing anything, before writing this review,Ok, there are three things I expect from this class of headphone. For one, they should offer isolation. These do ok on that item, at least with my ears. i have to mess with them a bit, but once I get them jammed in there, they keep out enough of my gym's poor taste in music to keep me satifsied.Second is build quality. They're certainly not ""comes with the MP3 player"" here in quality... they seem ok. They haven't broken, the plug isn't wearing quickly. On close inspection, I don't like how loose the cables fit in the strain relief rubber at the phones theselves... not dead yet, there's ample length, but just seem a quality concern.But the big thing is sound. Here, they fail miserably. The high end is ok, but if you heard bass like this out of you dusty old AM radio, you'd figure that radio was broken. Forget about MP3 or FM quality sound -- the lack of bass bothers me listening to the news. I just tried them out on my tablet, playing a short electronic piece I wrote for an online music course... I know I put a bass and a kick drum in there, but they're not to be heard. Swap in a par of JLab Boqari A1, similar price, and it's absolutely day and night... there's the kick! There's the bass. I'm not talking about the lows just not being overdriven by the MC3's -- they are gone, gone, gone.Just to drive the point home, I found a pair of cheap, ill fitting, fragile seeming, ""came with the MP3 player"" ear phones. And not with a Cowon, not a Sony, not even an iPod, but a super cheap Sandisk Sansa. And while the bass was muddy on these, it was still better -- at least it was present.Personally, this seems more of a scam than a product shortcoming, cutting out so much of the information in my audio for such a high price.

I have been a Tracfone customer for many years, in fact, my service end date is around 2025. This phone does just about everything. I can watch my home cam (I use the WIFI for heavy video or Netflix), Weather, email, any apps on Play Store, i run Norton mobile on it also with no problem in speed. Its exactly what I have been waiting for from Tracfone. Android 4.1 is perfect. Great features at a great price. Make sure you set your updates so they only work with WIFI. There's an icon on top to do that for Mobile Data. I turn it on when I want to run internet and than leave it off in general.I do not consider that a drawback since I am in control of what I spend and use. I have watched my home cam, videos, and a ton of websites and have hardly used any data from my 600 MB i got with my phone.It uses the voice, data, and text time separately so your data time doesn't kill your talk time and you can add just data from a card or the website.This phone is amazingly economical. I seriously laugh now when I see everyone else paying so much. I still pay under 30 bucks a month for 4 YES FOUR phones to be active on the family plan.

The phone itself is a decent and attractive design, but it would be nice if more thought were put into the additional features offered by an IP phone. It could just be that it is not possible to offer easy access to all the functions from a small cordless handset, but if you need even a basic like transferring calls on a regular basis, this phone is not for you. It technically can be used as a business phone, but will be inadequate in most cases. I have not seen a better cordless IP phone, however, I still ended up returning this phone after a few weeks because I found it unusable.",1156,0 +1157,"Beware of ICS 4.0.4 + +If you are an international client, stop now! don't update to the latest firmware offered by Kies. It will block your phone. I am still working this out now, already contacted the seller.",1157,0 +1158,"They Make Us Use These... + +Where I work there seems to be a fixation on Casio ""rugged"" cell phones.They have issued three models over the last 6 years including the Bolder, Ravine and Commando.Each was a ""new"" thing to get use to and each had/has their issues.The Commando is vastly worse than the Bolder and Ravine.I have three serious issues with this phone;1.) The battery life is worse than my old Palm Treo, worse than ANY cell phone I have ever owned including Motorola, Palm, Sanyo, Casio, and many more. I get between 16 hours and 1 day, 4 hours. The phone even kills the battery if you turn it off and leave it in your car over the weekend. I have taken to removing the battery at night to give myself some breathing room in the morning before I have to tether the phone to a wall. Remember corded phones? Remember not being able to walk across the room without yanking the cord tight and snapping the phone receiver out of your hand? It's like that.2.) The phone places every person in your Contact List who you call or receive a call from into the Favorites List. Do not confuse this activity with the Call Log, that is another list of call transactions. Unlike the Call Log, you can NOT remove a person from your Favorites List without deleting their associated Contact from your Contacts List. You can remove single entries from the Call Log. The ""delete"" is missing from the Favorites List.3.) The SMS Text application does not count characters as you enter your message. ALL the rest of the Casio phones (Bolder and Ravine) provide this essential function except the Commando. Why is this important? An SMS Text Message is limited to 160 characters. If you compose a message longer than 160 characters, the Cell System, not the phone, divides the message into a second message. this causes you to pay for two messages at full price even if ""your"" message is only 161 (or more) characters. This is compounded greatly should you be sending to everyone in a group. Imagine how quickly you can rip through your 250 message-per-month allotment should you NOT count those characters... ever try counting characters? It's hard.Update: I found a new bug. If you receive a call, say on Monday and you then go about your activities you will notice you have an entry in your Call Log recording this call. Very normal, nothing to review here... But wait, there's more. If you shut-down your phone at the end of the day, say like to conserve the battery overnight and then you take the next day off and do not turn the phone back on until Wednesday, you will see in your Call Log the call you received on Monday showing as a call received ""yesterday"". Tapping on this call to look at the details will show the correct date and time however when you return to the overview list, the call still shows as ""yesterday. The Call Log application fails to recognize the period of time which the phone was shut-down and reports the call as having been received on Tuesday, even when you know that both the call its self was received on Monday and the phone was powered-off all day Tuesday. I'll call this a bug not an ""issue"" as it's reproducible and persistent and demonstrates a failure in the software.Another Update: Twice, after the conclusion of a call the phone started to vibrate erratically. At first I thought I had done something to the phone so I showed it to a coworker while it was ""spazzing-out"" as he said. The display would rapidly shift between several screens and the vib motor seemed to be responding to the sounds in the room or sending me Mores code messages. We both tried to get it to stop and failed so I removed the battery and reinstalled it.This has happened twice, both times with witnesses. This sort of stuff may be why the battery in these phones doesn't last very long.I spoke with a representative of Verison (spelling error, I know) about the SMS thing and the other two issues. He said he could ""relate"" and was able to reproduce the Favorites and SMS problems on the phone he had at his disposal. He did not directly address the battery life issue but implied that he was aware of the large number of people in the Forum complaining of similar problems.I have other problems with the Commando, such as the persistent ""please unplug your charger"" nag message and the ""sticky"" rubberized coating on the casing. A ""rugged"" phone should be easier to clean as it's going to get dirty in use. Also, the speaker ports are trash magnets, the big magnets in there combined with the large and numerous openings contribute to a lot of stuff getting in there.Lastly, I would like to point-out that the phone will not sit flat on a table. If you turn it over and look you will notice that Casio put a protrusion around the earphone cover opening which extends below the common back surface of the phone. This ""bump"" makes for a two-point contact with the table top that makes the phone rock back and forth as you tap at the screen. A touch-screen phone that you MUST hold in your hand to get anything done. Ever try to get any work done with both hands on your cell phone? You can't even properly go to the bathroom this way.I was unable to get -ANY- support through my company's cell provider so I'm taking this advantage to warn others about this horrible cell phone.",1158,0 +1159,"Good phone. Great value. + +This phone was a risk/faith buy. I scoured reviews to try and make a best guess on this order. I made the leap and about 2 and a half weeks later found out if there was a pay off. Phone worked fine. Very little set up. It works fine with ATT and I have read it will work with any "sim card" carrier. I have owned this phone for over three months and put it through some test.The cover it comes with is very useful and I prefer it over any case. Samsung cases do not fit because the buttons are slightly different and do not align. I use mine mostly for talking some texting and a lot of apps. I tend to play one game at a time so I haven't really tested the capacity of its memory. I don't use it as an MP3 player so I cannot comment on its music playback.What it does do is work. It works fine as a phone. Works fine as a text device. Works fine playing apps. I have had it lock up on me four or five times loading an app. A simple restart worked fine. I have found that powering down once in a while keeps its speed up. I might add that my old Samsung phone locked up a lot more frequently under less stress. Speaking of reboot, it will load up from a restart very quickly compared to my old smart phone.YouTube works fine, as does Netflix. The camera works good in well lit situations. The flash is pointless as it is weak and low light photos will not turn out good. Spring for a real camera if you want to take a lot of pics worth printing. If your just into facebook selfies and occasional snapshots with no editing this will work fine. The front facing camera works as expected for a 1.3mp, grainy low quality. But that's to be expected. Video recording works same as the camera and it picks up audio well. The speaker is good also, as long as there isn't too much background noise.The headphone jack is an odd size so you'll have to pick up a spare at Radio Shack or special order it here. It has a longer plug. The phones that came with it are adequate. If your considering this phone you likely don't own "Beats". Besides watching a movie on a 5" screen doesn't require the highest sound quality. The screen display works fine. Video playback is smooth and works well. The clarity is better than I expected and on par with with my Samsung. I haven't had any screen issues.The phone feels very solid, it has good weight and no part really feels "cheap" or "poorly made" with the exception of the cover I'm using. It is a combination: back and flip over cover. It seems cheap, but has lasted three months with no damage. So despite the "feel" it is holding up better than expected.Overall I am extremely pleased with this purchase. There are some odd quirks to it. Spell check in texting says everything is wrong. I haven't cared enough to see if there is a way to fix it. I have added most words to the dictionary over time, so I only occasionally get a red line now. Further it comes with two batteries, but no way to charge the second one or store it. So i'm not really sure of the purpose. I'll hang on to it in case the first battery fails it is nice to know it's there. Also the GPS on this thing is pretty lousy. It doesn't pick up my location unless I'm outside. And by outside I mean with nothing over my head, trees, car roof, porch, clouds... I don't use it for driving though. I'd recommend purchasing a real GPS for driving putting it on the dash gives it a spotty signal. WIFI signal detection is good. It picks up my signal throughout my house. Although my house is small I have brick walls between rooms and signal strength is fine throughout.*** SD card slot works fine I forgot to mention that. Also this phone has a feature I've not noticed on any phone I have had before. You can record phone conversations by pushing the menu button during a connected call. It gives you the option to start and stop recording. People also comment on the size of it, a lot. . . That always makes me smile. I plan on buying my son one also.This is not a name brand phone, but works better than I thought it would and meets my needs beyond my expectations. Its performance suits my needs and after three months continues to perform as well as the day I opened it. There are a lot of negative reviews, perhaps they got a dud, or were expecting an iphone mistakenly shipped to them. I have seen some tech heads spout off some of this phones short comings, but I use it for four things, A phone, Texting, a few apps and occasional browsing.

I have heard a lot of people say ""It won't fit in your pocket""...but the phone is so slim, its easy to place! They also make real nifty case/wallets for this thing!BATTERY: This battery is straight up PHENOMENAL! I only charge it at night when I go to bed (unlike my other smartphones in the past that lived on life support 24/7) and at that, I really could even go a couple days without charging. With super heavy use like Netflix, texting, taking pictures, talking on the phone a couple hours...my battery will start at 100% around 8am and be around 74% by 6pm. That is amazing in my book. That alone is the worth the price!INTERACTION: This phone comes with the hyped up S-Pen. I didn't really think I would use it a whole lot but wow was I wrong! It really is a lot of fun! You can use it to hover over your screen and see whats in certain folders (images, music, etc.). It also works as a scissors, which is nifty! You press the button and hold it and you can cut and crop anything on the screen! Its fun to quickly jot down notes in a pinch! You can send hand-written images to anyone! I love this little gadget!Overall, this phone is the best phone I have ever used. In my honest opinion, it is much better than the iPhone! Sorry Apple! This phone is just so customizable! The options are limitless! The screen is AHHH-mazing and you just cannot beat this powerhouse's battery life! Thanks Samsung! You definitely made a quality product that I am just pleased to own! Keep them coming!",1176,0 +1177,"The pictures don't really do these cases justice + +My husband and I just got our iPhones, and we poured over hundreds of listings here on amazon for protective cases (having colorful cases was important to us, so that we can easily tell our phones apart). My husband liked the way these looked, but I was just ""eh"" about them...I ordered 3 cases for myself, including this one. This one was the first to arrive, and now I don't think I want the others at all! I got the pink one, and it is a really pretty matte sort of metallic fuschia color. Much more vibrant than it looks in the picture. Hubby chose the purple, which looks lavender on my screen, but is a very nice metallicky purple in real life (not royal purple, but not a girly lavender, either). They fit the phones great without adding bulk, and make the phone feel a lot less slppery to me, so I feel more secure carrying it around. Don't like that the screen protectors adhere to the screen, so we won't be using those.

If it's real bothersome, a little bleach pen will at least take away the contrast of the stains. The back of this case is great, but overall do not get this case if you're looking for absolute protection. I realize my phone could still obtain some damage should it get dropped.Mine came with a stylus pen and I really enjoy using that. It's not the best in this type of case, but it is still a good case and worth it when you can't afford something more. It's kind of like having a book in your hand sometimes if you don't fold the cover back. I'm a pretty average mom on the go, so I'm not much of a perfectionist, if you are, you might not like that this case can get so dirty fast.

This is a surprise as the description says OS is 4.1.2- Screen size is just what I need. Could be big for some, ordering this phone I am skeptical about the size being too big (given that I find the gnote 2 too bordering between big and just right) but when I actually held it it actually felt good. They managed to control the exterior size while having that big screen.- Fast quad core cpu (mtk 6589). Its not as fast as gnote 2...but it's very close (real world test, no formal benchmarks). also, I think if this phone will have 2GB ram just like gnote 2 then the difference in speed will really be very close.- 1 GB Ram- Comes with (2) 3200 Mah batteries. Could be just the label being 3200 MAh but after 1 day of heavy usage, I'd like to believe it is for real.- Front camera is usable for video chat (couldn't say the same for a lot of branded phones)- Can handle 2 sim cards, both unlocked (can handle any gsm carrier, I am using at&t; locally and an international roaming sim)- Gorgeous HD screen. 1280 x 720 is for real (I was skeptical if this is for real, but it is). I don't think it's gorilla glass but thats alright for the price.... and oh, it comes with screen protector already installed.- Free flip type cover (its not the prettiest but hey... it's free :-))- Given all those features above.. it only sells for less than $250What's not so great- Only 4gb of internal memory, but expandable via sd card so it's fine- Build quality is great although body is all plastic BUT tends to gets slippery when my hands starts sweating.- The usb ac charger that came with the phone is not good quality. Using the included usb charger, the phone will be unusable while being charged. When I used a charger from another phone the problem went away.. so yeah it is the charger.- The camera is 12mp on paper. It seems correct but the quality of the picture taken is not great just decent, usable for quick shots. On good lighting it worked better.I would've given it 4 stars because of the charger issue but then this phone just works so great and is a joy to use (again, given the low price) that giving it less than 5 stars would not be right. I think, I just got unlucky with the charger and I am too lazy to ask for a return.. and this phone is a keeper.I've had Iphone, galaxy sII, lg optimus 4x hd before this and I could say, given that this phone is from an unknown brand I never felt loosing any ""coolness"" by opting to have this phone than branded ones.

When we attempted to charge our phones using the original HTC charger and data cable that came with the phones, we discovered that the micro data connection on the phone was no longer sensitive to the original cables. We had to manipulate our original cables (which are in excellent condition) in order for them to charge either phone. Now we have to ship both phones to HTC to repair the micro connections. These cables are likely aftermarket marketed as authentic product. The cables that came with our phones are thicker and significantly longer. The charge time for these data cables are also much longer than the originals. Buyer beware! I'm giving the HTC original micro USB data cable 1 star and that's only because there's not a 1/2 star.

I have not had any problem hearing callers nor have they had any problems hearing me. It works well with my voice dialing (LG Rumor Touch). I like how it tells you the battery level - it actually speaks to you - ""battery high"", ""battery medium"", or ""battery low"", in a female voice with a proper British accent. Very soothing.

Just charged the headset (<2 hrs for full charge), pressed the Multi-Function Button (MFB), navigated the BT menu on my phone, and it linked up perfectly the first time. I have had it only a few days, so I cannot attest to battery life just yet, but since there are two charging accessories included (car port and desktop/USB), I don't think it will be an issue to keep it charged. The MFB does take a little to get used to if you've never had a BT headset before. It does come with a quick start guide that you can keep with you if you need it. Not necessary, but handy, and it's not the full manual, and is small enough to keep at hand. It comes with two ear loops and three different sizes of ear buds. It fits comfortably on my ear with the middle-sized bud. I enjoy being able to be hands-free and wireless.Overall, good call quality, lightwieght, nice design.

With light use and turning of all extras (GPS, 4G, etc) for most of the day I only use about 30 - 40% battery life in 24 hours.Only con so far is the power button placement is odd.

The soft material that protects the device makes for an easy grip for young hands. It adds some bulk to the Fire but I find that it is quite comfortable to hold and read (or browse or play) for hours at a time. In fact, I personally prefer the feel of the Kindle Fire with the case on it to using it without the case. I was so impressed with this case that I immediately ordered the same for my husband's ipad.

While it is not a true RGB display, it is still absolutely gorgeous. The viewing angles are superb and the colors are close to natural (assuming you use the Movie Mode).Size: I bought this phone knowing it will be the largest phone I have ever used before. It's actually smaller than what I thought it would be. It is pretty much the same size as the Galaxy Note 2, but also a little lighter. I can use most of the features with one hand, no problem, but I have pretty large hands (piano hands). Thin bezels just add to the beauty of the phone!Look and feel: I very much love the aesthetics of the phone! It's a real eye catcher. I love the textured back , it feels solid and it definitely won't be slipping out of my hand. I prefer the more squarish design of the Note 3 more than the round, ""natural"" design of the Note 2. It looks more futuristic. The volume buttons and home button are rock solid and provide the right amount of physical feedback when using them. Although, I find myself accidentally hitting the home key a lot.Camera: The camera has been wonderful so far. I am by no means a photographer but it does the job superbly when I do want to catch that rare photo. The video on this thing is AMAZING compared to what I have had before. The 1080p 60 FPS is SO SMOOTH I LOVE IT. It's a little scary, actually.Call Quality: Everyone has said that I have been coming through loud and clear, no issues. Everything is clear on my end, as well.Sound/Speakers: This phone is capable of high quality sound through headphones but I never use headphones. The loud speaker is somewhat disappointing. It all sounds like it's coming out of a tin can. I don't use the loud speaker all that much though so it isn't a deal breaker by any means.Software: I love the S-Pen, I find myself using it a lot more than I thought I would. I use the ScrapBook option a lot as I use StumbleUpon daily. Good place to keep recipes, especially since I can tag things then search for them later. I love writing out notes as well and then sending them to people. I hate S-Voice. It sucks and pales in comparison to Siri or Google Now. I had the option to say ""Hi Galaxy"" when the screen is off turned on and it turns on randomly! It did it once in the movie theatres! So embarrassing. I froze that app asap.Battery Life: WOW. 5 hours screen-on time with mostly auto-brightness, but I generally watch an hour worth of videos a day on full brightness. It lasts all day and then some. It also charges in roughly 2.5 hours as well. I am VERY pleased with the battery life.There really isn't anything wrong with this phone.. I love every aspect of it. It never lags, it handles everything beautifully.. the only thing I didn't like was S-Voice, but I also knew that when buying the phone. Nothing has let me down so far.If you are on the fence about buying this phone, just buy it. You'll love it!Actually, there is ONE thing I don't like. Because of the type of display, white colors drain the battery more quickly than darker colors. On the international variant, the Dialer, Messages and Contacts have a black background whereas the AT&T; version has white backgrounds.

The case has a plastic shell in which the Touch is mounted. This plastic piece is rather rigid and it scratched my Touch from the sides, something I noticed only when removing the case.2. It leaves plenty of exposed areas on the Touch like the back top and bottom parts for the camera and loop connection. If I dropped the Touch, there were several areas that could have been damaged.3. The material is definitely nowhere close to being leather. It's cheap vinyl at best and the smell, feel of the material, and overall cheap look all scream vinyl. The white stitching on the sides makes it look more tacky.I wish I could recommend this case, but given my experience I will be looking for something better.",1219,0 +1220,"Very pretty cover but not functional + +I agree with all the other reviews. Fits perfectly on my iphone 4S, easy to get on and off, but causes a pink hue when taking pictures. A trick I found (until getting a new case) to help is the pink on the back actually comes off. You can take it off without taking off the entire case, take your pic then put it back. How did I find this out? Well, based on my other issue with this cover. When you lay/set the phone on its back on a table or flat surface then type or swipe, it wobbles. Because the little pink swirl on the back is slightly raised so the phone cannot lay flat. If I take the pink part off, it is flat and the wobble stops.",1220,0 +1221,"Love it + +First of i have the at&t version and it works fine charging and all.

The original case was cute, but it didn't seem to provide much protection for my phone. It especially didn't have a lip to protect the screen, which I believe is the part of the phone that needs to be protected the most. The Anley case is much more functional. True, it does not show off my phone's color like some other cases do, but it gives me peace of mind that my phone will be OK even if I drop it. It is a good fit for the phone and goes on and off easily. And with all the different colors that are available, everyone should be able to find one that they like. I definitely like mine (Turquoise), and it looks just like in the picture.The one thing that did not work for me was the screen film that comes with the case. I was probably extra clumsy, but I ended up with lots of bubbles and so I ordered a more professional film set with a better applicator system (the iCarez set, also available via Amazon). It worked much better for me.The one thing I wished I had known when I picked out this case was that you have to be prepared to wait for at least 2 weeks for it to arrive. It was not mentioned anywhere on the product site, so I didn't find out until I was already checking out, and at that point I didn't want to start over anymore. Amazon in fact gave me a much longer estimate, more like 4-6 weeks. So in the end I was happy that it only took about 2 weeks. But of course even 2 weeks can seem like a long time when you are carrying around a new phone without a protective case. If you are clumsy, I would definitely recommend to plan ahead and order the case before you plan to start using your phone or while you still have a backup case.PS: A month later, I am noticing that the case is now being sold via Amazon Prime. I assume this means that it is no longer shipped from China and should arrive sooner.",1222,0 +1223,"terrible problems with Windows 8 phone + +We gave my daughter this phone for Christmas, and she couldn't have been more excited.

It does make phone calls and send texts, but cannot get any downloads at all... so no apps, music, games, or many websites.

If you just spent $600+ this is the screen protector you want!. its super light weight, You can barley tell a screen protector is on the device when your swiping back and forth.. at first the texture is a bit awful while using.. But after you use it for 30mins or more it starts to feel like a real premium screen protector.The DownfallThe only thing i find wrong about this screen protector is that its a tad bit off. I can understand leaving space for the home button and camera + sensors, But it would be nice if the screen protector covered the whole screen. It only covers the LCD itself.. not the bezel of the phone..

I swear I researched this phone before I bought it, but that didn't do me much good. The reviews were mixed, but that is the case with so many cell phones. I wanted a phone that didn't require me to have the internet because I'm not that tech savvy and didn't need it. This was just one of two phone choices that Verizon offers (other than a flip phone that comes with a nerdy belt holder) for people like me. The texting on this phone is UNBEARABLE. There's no way to have your text messages categorized by inbox and outbox so I can no longer delete all outgoing messages - I have to just erase them one by one or delete all the messages on my phone at once (in/out/draft). It also makes it hard to follow a conversation.The video and camera on this phone are so bad. The sound on the video is odd - it sounds like there is water running in the background. The picture quality for pictures or video is terrible and when I send video or pic messages no one can really make out the image well - it's very blurry. The sound on the phone is not good - I am forever having people tell me they can't hear me. I get dropped calls all the time now and NEVER had dropped calls before. I live in a major city so it's not that there aren't enough towers around. This phone belongs in a toilet because it's a piece of crap. I rarely give a negative review but I'd like to save anyone else from wasting their time buying a piece of garbage phone like this. Now I am stuck with this thing for another year and a half. My last phone was FANTASTIC and I would have kept it forever but it was so old it wore out :( You can find a much better phone that this - go ahead and splurge for the internet phones because I think companies are really only pooling their resources into those phones.

I wanted something that could charge my phone, charge a spare battery, and output audio at the same time. This dock does all of that. I wish the dock was a little bit heavier in the base. While it is stable as is, and I can even text with the phone in the dock without fear of knocking it over, I have to be gentle with it. Here are a few things to keep in mind when purchasing this dock:1) The spare battery does not easily go into the charger. As mentioned by another reviewer you need to start with the corner with the metal charging prongs and rock it in. It isn't that difficult once you get the hang of it.2) The phone will not go into dock mode unless an audio cable is plugged into the dock. If you only have the power cable plugged in the phone only charges and doesn't trigger dock mode.3) If using audio output, make sure to configure your phone to output the audio or you will get nothing out of your speakers. This isn't a problem with the dock.Here is one issue I had with the dock that I want to mention. I had some electrical interference when the dock was playing audio. I tried many different chargers, outlets, usb cables, etc... I found that if you have your phone volume lower and the speaker volume higher the interference is much more noticeable. However, if you have the phone volume all the way up and the speaker volume lower the interference isn't audible.The seller was quick to respond to email and was very accommodating.

This wouldn't be a point of contention, if this item's title weren't ""Brand New Palm Treo ... USB Sync...""- The included AC adapter plug doesn't fit snugly into the dock. It goes in, but not all the way, as one would expect the plug to. And yes, the AC adapter cord is oddly short. You may also want to pick up an extension cord.- The description never claimed it had one, but it's important to note that the dock lacks a HotSync button. You'll need to manually navigate into the HotSync app on your Palm after plugging it in and initiate the sync that way -- so you don't get that 'plug it in and press the button' convenience that you may get with other Palm docks.But, barring all of that... it works.",1238,0 +1239,"NICE PHONE + +I GOT THIS PHONE AND I AM PLEASED SO FAR DID MY DOWNLOADS AND ITS UNLOCKED I DOWNLOAD MY CANDY CRUSH FACEBOOK WHATAPS AND I AM PLEASED SO FAR.

I love the fact that you can access web pages, email and maps and take photos and videos all using voice and gestures. In a nutshell Google glass is very futuristic with one big Caveat.The Specs:1) The first notable thing was that the battery life was pretty short on this unit. I got about 4 hours of battery life, but I figure you will probably get 5-6 hours after you calm down and stop playing with it as much.2) Photos and videos taken with the Glass are just Ok, they are certainly not in the same league with iPhone 5 or 5s photos and certainly not even close to SLR quality but they are adequate for most applications, you get clean photos that you can show off to your friends.3) Internet access was pretty good in the sense that the images and text are clean and very pretty. There is a lag and frame rates can get a bit bad at times, but overall it was really a pretty good experience.4) Don't drive and use Google glass, as much as you might think you can do both, you can't! The brain is a serial processor, it shifts back and forth between tasks so fast that it seems like we multitask but when your using google glass it becomes very clear that your brain is switching around tasks. Sometimes something will catch your eye on the Internet and you realize you have been staring at it for a lot longer than you might have thought. Overall its lot more dangerous than talking on a cell phone while driving but maybe less dangerous than texting.The Caveat:First of all when you wear one you look kind of dorky, it screams geek at the top of it's lungs!Secondly and more importantly is the feeling you get from other people when they see you wearing it. Even my wife was uncomfortable being around me when I wore it. My friends all got quiet and said nothing of any substance until I took it off. Don't get me wrong, at first everyone is interested but after they get a taste of using it they then become very weary about being around you when you have it on. It goes from questions like ""I hope your not recording me"" to eventually they either don't trust you or can't bother asking, so they just avoid you all together. During my time testing it I could not have one serious conversation with anybody and everybody seemed very nervous around me. So I guess my three star rating is based on the fact that the world is not ready for Google glass, and if you want to have any friends in your life I suggest you never wear it around them. That kind of defeats the purpose so I am not really sure what Google glass is good for, you could use it while alone at home, but what's the point since your PC is right next to you. The Dork factor plus the feeling of being shunned that I got when I wore them makes Google glass not something I would invest my money in right now. Maybe in 10 years if they become common place, but for now when you wear Google glass your on the edge all alone.",1240,0 +1241,"Easy to use and no problems + +I have been using my iPhone 3GS for years for one of my problems has been the battery life and the ability to run some of the newer applications on it.

Zip-Linq combines a retractable, 30-inch, USB 1.1 extension cable with a cell phone adapter.Use is fairly straightforward: Attach the correct phone adapter to the Zip-Linq cable. Extend the retractable cable, up to 30 inches maximum. Plug the other end of the Zip-Linq cable into any PC or Mac with a USB port, plug the adapter end into your cell phone and in about an hour, your cell phone is charged.Cautions: You need to remember to pull on the retractable cable from BOTH ends, at the same time, NOT just one end. The wire itself is rather thin and can easily be damaged or broken.Use a powered USB port, either on the computer itself or a USB hub with its own power supply.On the plus side, it is much easier to carry the Zip-Linq than the proper cell phone charger. The Zip-Linq only weighs a couple of ounces. Zip-Linq actually works rather well.There are a couple of different models of Zip-Linq cables to choose from.

Had a couple trial and errors in the process. I can certainly steer you clear of the Alcatel One Touch Fierce. On paper the Alcatel looks good (similar specs as the L90), but in practice it was horrible. Compared the LG L90 against the Motorola G but it was out of my budget i set myself @ $150 and the LG has better specs, so i got the LG Optimus L90. I bought mine directly from T-Mobile for $160 unlocked when they ran a midnight special...they do that a lot lately, pays to be up at 1am.Since most sites don't really list the specifications I listed them here for you.Before I go into the dry stuff, let me say this phone is definitely worth the price @$160. Going closer to the $200 mark puts it in competition with the Motorola G which Motorola is owned by Google so gets preferential treatment from Android.Lastly, since both the LG L90 and Motorola G are the same price i would opt for the LG L90. The L90 has over the Motorola G a better larger screen, ( 4.7 inch vs 4.5 inch and an IPS panel over standard LCD). The L90 also has a larger capacity battery at 2460mAh over the Moto G's 2070mAh version. The LG L90 also feels better in the hand and not as clunky as the Moto G. Don't get caught up in the Moto G's fancy colored back plates, ( which by the way, will cost you $15 a pop). The one advantage the Moto G has is an LTE version for $20 - $40 more.If you have champagne taste and a beer budget and don't mind going North of $200 the best phone out there is the Nexus 5 16GB @$349 directly from Google Play Store, which is also made by LG.

Here is what happened to my LG Optimus L90.I use T-Mobile as my standard service but go into rural areas T-Mobile does not cover so I purchased a prepaid sim (net10 off ATT towers) to use in these areas. All works well for me. Yesterday I had to switch out the SIM on the L90 and when I inserted the Net10 sim the phone said 'Service disabled' and 'no sim' so I put back in the T-Mobile sim and got the same message. A call to net10 first yielded the sim was active and functioning, proven by installing it in my Nexus 5. A call to T-Mobile tech support and they confirmed their sim also was working and also proved by installing in my nexus 5. The end result was the L90 suddenly and no longer would register any sim in the phone. Online research suggested this is a known issue with many LG phones and is related to the Main Circuit Board failing. Although this theory is highly unlikely as the phone functions perfectly fine it just says there is no sim in the slot but I do believe it is hardware related and not software.My good fortune is that T-Mobile replaced it as it was only 2 weeks old and shipped overnight a brand new one.My concern now of course is this new one going to have the same issue but this time when its too late to return? If I had known this ahead of time I would have bought the D410 model with the Dual sim support, oh well live and learn.Also sad to report my wife's brand new LG G2 from T-Mobile has issues too. Her G2 will suddenly turn off the mic and or sound. It is fixed by a soft reset (power cycling the phone), but you don't know its happening until you make a call or take a call.I have been a big LG fan having 2 LG G2 pryer and 2 other LG phones in the past, hence why I turned my wife onto her G2 and ended up with this L90 model. I have a sickly feeling that I am headed back to Samsung's corner, or worse Apple!i won't change my 5 star rating for this phone because i know the world is not perfect, and its still an excellent product.____UPDATE 7/17/14____Glad to report my new L90 has performed flawlessly. I no longer switch sims out and only use it with the Net10/StraghtTalk ATT service. I am also the new owner of LG's brand new flagship the G3 and can say the G3 makes the L90 look even better because using these phones side by side there is very little the L90 is lacking, in fact I think the screen on the L90 is just as nice if not better with more accurate colors._____",1248,0 +1249,"usb connection fails + +The phone can not connect to any USB port, or mac or pc, I changed the cable and it does not work, not even charging the battery.

Activation went relatively smoothly and everything seemed OK, but the ZTE Valet screen died after 7 days of very light use. Amazon will take it for a refund and I plan to get another Samsung to replace it rather than waste time with another ZTE product. Anyone who's switched phones knows that this is frustrating - time had been spent making sure all the contacts and apps had been tweaked to personal preference. Now all that will need to be done over. Argh!",1252,0 +1253,"Good minimalist cover--though it may yellow over time (see update to review) + +I like the design of the new iPhone and would really prefer to not have a case at all, or any protection. However, I know that I could drop it, and I know that the surface can be marred by ordinary use and wear. So I want it naked, but know that keeping it uncased would eventually (and, with the more delicate aluminum back and shiny mirror Apple logo on the back, quickly) mean scratches all over the back and maybe the sides.What I need: Drop protection for the sides and corners, and aesthetic protection for the back. With the lowest possible profile.I would go for a protective film on the back, but that doesn't protect from drops. It's also expensive, comparatively speaking.This Cimo case is the best combination of protection and low-profile I could find.The feel of it is flexible, a bit of give--midway between a gel cover and a hard shell.It covers the back and sides, just latching over the front edge minimally to hold it on. The volume and power buttons are covered with slightly raised, tactile buttons on the side of the case, and work perfectly. The ring mute switch is cut out, and you do have to slip into the notch with a fingertip or nail--not as easy as with the iPhone bareback, but not difficult. The speaker, mic, headphone jack, sync jack, and back camera are all cut out well.The fit on the phone is just fine--tight enough, still not difficult to apply or remove.The color of the ""Frosted Clear"" I got is not transparent completely: It is a bit frosted. You can, however, see and read the back of the phone through. Due to the frost of the plastic, the Apple logo no longer has the mirror shine. But it's easily visible. The surface of the case is shiny--not a high gloss as a hardshell case might have, but still shiny.There is no screen protector shipping with this: It's the case only.Thus far, I'm pretty satisfied. I know it's going to get marred through use--but then, that's why I'm putting a cover between the iPhone and the world, to take the hit for the iPhone. I can throw this away and buy another in months or years when I need to.A good product, the best that I have seen yet for my desires.*** Update 6 months later: While it has held up well in condition, the cover has notably yellowed since I put it on the phone in October.",1253,0 +1254,"Works great! + +My screen went on smoothly with NO bubbles. Clean the glass with the cloth, don't touch the sticky side and work carefully. I had it on my iPhone for 2 weeks now and it's perfect.",1254,0 +1255,"Great features but poor phone + +I tried the Sony Erickson w600i and really loved that little gem. Mp3 player works great and the built in speaker, while it isn't good for music, is great for audio book and podcasts without the bother of headphones or those irksome earplug things. Push the camera switch and it becomes a mini digital camera (not like taking pictures with a phone). And it interfaces with your computer easily. I didn't bother with the included software rumored to be buggy. It just shows as an external drive. The swivel design seemed OK. It's only needed when you use the keypad and that was less often than I would have thought. The problem was it's a lousey phone! People told me they couldn't hear me and frequently asked - What's all that noise? I ended up with a Razr V3 which works great as a phone and is has the best speakerphone I have used. I do miss the W600i. I hope the next version will have a better phone and speakerphone as that is essential to me. I would dump the V3 in a minute if they would improve the phone side of the W600i",1255,0 +1256,"Great looking phone....if yer into that sort of thing + +I'll start with the bad first, given the amount of interest this phone has generated.1) The Phonebook application is a little...wonky. Some people have said you can't add more than one piece of contact info per contact, which is NOT true. You can, but its nearly hidden underneath the ""MORE"" function while editing the contact. However, its not convenient and you cannot add additional e-mail addresses or phone numbers to your contacts using the Phone Tools app...which is annoying, since T-Mobile charges $30-40 for the hardware/software bundle.1a) It also takes forever to scroll through your Phonebook contacts. I thought it MIGHT be caused by having some SIM contacts, so I transfered all of them to phone memory. No dice. The scroll speed is untenable. Even my wife's Moto V330 is quicker. What gives? I had to create a voice prompt for almost every contact in my list.2) Even at full blast, the volume just isn't loud enough. Plus, the ""audio sweet spot"" on the speaker is hard to keep next to your ear. If you are planning to get a Bluetooth headset and use that exclusively, this shouldn't keep you from getting the phone.3) Compared to a Samsung V205, a Sony Ericsson P910i and Motorola's own V330, the RAZR gets poorer reception. The previous phones mentioned all get four bars at my house. The RAZR gets 2. This even after calling T-Mobile tech support for help. Their advice? ""Keep turning the phone on and off and it will hopefully find another tower.""4) T-Mobile offers NO games for this phone yet. Given how high profile this form factor has become, I find this level of support to be somewhat poor. I know - you don't buy a phone for its games. But just to show how lacking T-Mobile's support is...the RAZR includes a demo for BeJeweled. After the (very) short demo is over, it asks if you want to buy it. Clicking the link brings you to a webpage that says ""Sorry, we don't offer games for your phone yet"". My wife's V330 has a similar issue. She's had it for over 4 months and services like T-Mobile STILL offer no games for the phone. Again, I know you shouldn't buy a phone based on the number of games offered for it, but its still a feature, something to whittle away the time while waiting at the DMV.5) Camera phone still only 640x480. Decent pics at that resolution, but given that there are cheaper phones on the market (I didn't get this phone for free) with higher pixel values, this is a moderate oversight on Moto's part6) Phone response is fairly poor as well. Example - going through my contacts by pressing keys (going from Q to R to S)...so very slow. You think the phone hasn't responded so you mash the button again, at which point it responds to TWO button presses and you have to start all over again.7) The Phone Tools application is a little user unfriendly and totally geared to people who mess around with Outlook CSVs on a daily basis. I've managed to get it to work, but not without some work.Alright, so now for the good.1) This phone is a veritable conversation piece. Oohs and ahhs all around...if you care about that sort of thing. I usually don't. I just want a functional phone that gets good battery life, gets a decent signal and can withstand a beating (I'm a klutz). But if you do care about the conversation-worthyness of your cell phone, this one has it in spades.2) Great battery power. I've had it on for 5 days at moderate usage and I've still got 2 bars left.3) This is a sturdy phone. My kid has already dropped it on cement twice and I've seen NO scratches at all. Maybe I'm lucky, as another reviewer mentioned that poor build quality on his piece. I've not had any issues. The phone is rock solid.4) The usual amount of ringtones and wallpapers....all of which are amazingly expensive. Why does it cost 2 bucks for a hi-fi ringtone lasting 20 seconds when I can buy the song at iTunes for a dollar?5) The PhoneTools software allows you to create your OWN ringtones. I haven't played around with the software yet, so I'm going to guess that your abilities to import MP3s or CD-audio will be truncated to some degree.6) Excellent Bluetooth performance. Haven't had the opportunity to test file transfers and such, but the RAZR's connection to my Moto BT headset is great. Doesn't matter which side of my body they are situated. Decent sound quality even at 20 feet of unobstructed space.7) Did I mention this phone is attractve?8) Ringtones can get quite loud, even without degrading ringtone sound quality. I wish the speaker was this loud.This phone has some serious shortcomings - most important among them is the poor performance of the Phonebook app, poor signal quality and low speaker volume. Ordinarily, I'd be bringing the phone back, like, tomorrow. But the design of the phone and its excellent BT performance makes me want to hang onto it.Hopefully, Moto learns from their mistakes and releases a RAZR V4 with better earpiece volume and snappier response times.",1256,0 +1257,"Tried 3 different screens, all had scratches + +Oct. 31: I purchased a Kindle Fire and a ZAGG screen protector. It seemed like an outrageously high price for just one, but the salesman said it was guaranteed for the life of the device. He also offered to install it for me, but the installation charge would have almost doubled the total price.The salesman told me to register the screen protector as soon as I got home, in order to begin its lifetime warranty. When I did, I was relieved that I didn't have to create and remember yet another password. The registration was based solely on my email address.When I got it all home, I discovered that installing a ZAGG is way more complicated than any I had encountered before. (One of the instructions I really did not like was the one that says not to turn the device on FOR 12 TO 24 HOURS AFTER INSTALLING THE SCREEN PROTECTOR, but that's a setback for the buyer regardless of who is doing the installation.) The process involves a special solution (included) and instructions on how to wet your fingertips to avoid getting prints on the screen. I decided to save myself the frustration.Nov. 1: I returned to the store and paid the exorbitant price to have this installed. With sales tax, this screen protector now cost close to forty dollars.As the salesman tried to put it on, he discovered it was scratched, so he took a second one off the rack and installed that instead. When he finished, I asked about the scratches (yes, the second one was also scratched) and he said they should ""work themselves out"" over the next day or so.Nov. 2: The scratches, of course, did not ""work themselves out."" I returned to the store and the salesman installed a third ZAGG screen protector. When he finished, I noticed that the scratches on this third one were worse than the first two. He said the store clearly had a bad batch, and I should contact ZAGG, explain the problem, and have them ship me a replacement.I went back to the ZAGG website and was given two options to start the replacement process: sign in WITH PASSWORD, which I don't have because the original registration process did not ask for, or issue a password; or, the second option was to register my product (which I had already done). That was the first hangup.The second hangup was the cost of shipping. You have to pay to ship the bad screen to ZAGG, but you also have to provide a credit card number because there's a shipping and handling fee for the replacement. That's right. They won't just charge you shipping, they'll also charge you for the time it takes them to put the screen in the envelope ... and they DON'T TELL YOU how much that shipping and handling charge is going to be.Nov. 3: I took the screen protector and both receipts (the one for the protector, and the one for the installation) back to the store, and it got a little ugly for a few minutes. They wanted to refund the cost of the ZAGG but not the cost of the installation. I told them their alternative was to waste every sealed, scratched ZAGG on their rack until they were all gone, or they could refund both charges.They chose to refund both charges rather than have an empty ZAGG rack. In other words, they chose to continue to sell scratched ZAGGs to unsuspecting customers.I finally got out of there with my money, and came back to Amazon where I ordered a highly-rated competitor's screen protector. It's a set of two protectors that cost about twenty percent of what ZAGG charges for this one.CONCLUSION: This might be the best screen protector ever made. Who knows? I would have to try one that wasn't scratched, which this particular store couldn't deliver on. Aside from this one store's unfortunate batch of defective screens, the problems with ZAGG's ""lifetime guarantee"" were twofold:1. Their ""Who are you?"" attitude when it came time to log on to their site in order to deal with the problem (i.e., asking me for a password when there was no password involved in the original registration process).2. Their practice of pre-charging an unspecified shipping and handling fee. Not only do I not know how much that charge will eventually be, I also don't know how many times I would have to return the product (and get dinged for the shipping and handling fee) until they get it right.",1257,0 +1258,"Best Screen Protector + +I work in plastics and I have to tell you, these guys know what they're doing.

A Google image search found the Mountek mount which I actually bought from Ebay as I live in the UK.Unfortunately, when I received it, I found it would not go into the CD slot as the 'legs' are a little too wide for the slot. Undeterred, I took a hacksaw to it (there is spring steel under the black rubber) and removed about 8mm from each side for a perfect fit - took 2 minutes.

I didn't want another 6085 because they're so fragile. My first one worked great for two years until I dropped it, which broke the camera, made the external display unusable, and reduced the charging capacity to about 12 hours. My second 6085 was fine too until I dropped it also. In contrast, I had a Motorola V400 for about four years and dropped it several times, but it never seemed to affect that phone. All these phones have been used with AT&T;'s network.The 2720 is stylish, light, has a good main display and a good external display, and produces good call quality. The battery lasts a long time; I'm presently going on three days since the last charge, and the phone is still showing a full charge. I like being able to see the big external clock display by touching the volume key. In addition to the clock, the external display shows caller ID and an envelope to indicate a waiting message. Volume adjustments are also indicated on the external display.The camera in this phone is better than the ones I had in the 6085 and the Motorola V400. Resolution is higher, producing pictures that are better suited to use as display ""wallpaper."" Bluetooth works fine too, enabling me to transfer files back and forth with our Macs with ease, which means mainly pictures.On the downside, the 2720 isn't as easy to access email on as the 6085 was. One button touch on the 6085 took me to email. On the 2720, I have to get there via Mobile Web, which requires several clicks before I can get to Yahoo Mail. Once there the email display is rather klutzy, whereas the 6085 email interface resembled a computer's mail display.Sound quality is also a bit weak. At full volume, the sound is adequate, but usually not really loud. Whereas on the 6085 the T-coil (hearing aid) setting produced a big volume increase, the 2720 T-coil setting doesn't seem to do anything.

If it had that, it would be 5 stars, hands down.",1283,0 +1284,"All About Perspective... + +First, I will state that I am using this model cellphone to write this review. I have had this phone for one year, one month, twelve days, seven hours and fourteen minutes as of this writing. It has good battery-life; I have turned it off about a dozen times, maybe. I charge it regularly. It has never died, though it is time to replace it, as the charger no longer stays securely in place. This phone has taken a severe beating from me, and earned my respect thereby. It has hit the concrete a thousand times. I once dropped it in the sink, partially submerging it. I used a hair-blowdryer on it, then left it in my oven overnight to dry, and months later it's like it never happened. So it isn't super-delicate and will survive some abuse, I can swear to that. It has served as my daily internet connection (for news, shopping, Wikipedia, YouTubing, Amazon, reporting earthquakes to the USGS - everything the casual internetter does - all on an ""unlimited"" data plan, of course, and I am not here to review AT&T;'s service); it is my sole telephone connection, and likewise my means of texting and such; and my only camera, being myself not so much interested in capturing and sharing all of life's precious moments - though I do send a handful of pictures and videos, and so for me personally, the camera modes are ""better"" (more bells and whistles) than I need (though far less than others, I would also surmise); but there's nothing wrong with the quality, for the forty bucks they're asking right now. The most relevant thing I can say about this phone is this no-brainer: probably what will most strongly influence your opinion of it is what kind of phone you are coming off of, and how many functions you are used to having at your everyday disposal. If you only need a few things, this has them all and you can make a button on the screen for ""shortcuts"" like alarm clock, calculator, and anything else you want designated. If you are used to a quality smartphone in the $150-250-and-up range and you want a cheap backup, this one may be too mediocre for you, but it may be passable, if you are able and willing to sacrifice.. If you are accustomed to state-of-the-art technology, this phone is probably going to seem as a Stone Age relic to you, and will not do what you are used to doing. (I understand some cellphones cost upwards of $600; if you have one of those, this phone would be an insult to taste and an affront to your dignity.) If it is only a short-term backup, then it will perform all the usual phone, text, picture/video, and internet functions you'll absolutely *need*, unless your job demands more-than-basic internet capabilities. Those spoiled on quality had best look elsewhere.If, on the other hand, you have never had a smartphone, or have only recently realized that (as was the case for me) you are paying enough of a cellphone bill each month that you could be receiving internet as well, this kind of device is a heck of an eye-opener. It will do way more than you'll ever even find out about, it's easy to figure out how to use and find your way around on, and it's kind of fun just checking out all of its features. I never once opened the user's guide that came with it.There are better and worse phones, no doubts about that; I always thought simplest was best, but upgrading to this phone was, for me, a leap forward. I would probably not buy this if I was used to a real smartphone; however, this phone is a cool upgrade if you've stayed away from the technology so far, partly because of its ease of use. After the abuse heaped on the one I have now, it is time for me to buy a new cellphone. I'm going to order another one of these.*Update 1/14/2013*Still running strong; a couple of friends and family now own one of these, and we're just happy as clams. (Clams are, by nature, extremely happy creatures - or so I'm told.)Apparently, this model is considered dated enough that AT&T; still offers ""unlimited"" data packages with no throttling (as far as I can tell); phones that transfer data at higher speeds are not eligible for the same plan, but I still get unlimited talk/text/internet for $50 a month, and if this phone is slow, I haven't noticed. I hope they never stop selling them; I just bought an extra in case some evil should befall this one.

The fit is good; snug and no warping or gapping except for a very tiny amount along the top where the USB and microphone ports are located. This area is just a little bit loose on my copy, probably because so much of the vinyl is cutout here. I can imagine this area potentially gapping more after frequent handling.The sides of the case have a glossy, smooth finish. The edge of the mold can be felt around the sides of the case. Again, this is a cheap case and I'm not surprised to be able to feel a line where the case was molded. The back is micro-texture, matte finish. The side buttons (volume, power, camera) are tactilely easy to feel and operate. There is an almost imperceptible indent on the bottom edge so as not to block the microphone. I made a few test calls and my party didn't notice any change in my voice.The screen protector is about 1/8 inch shorter than both the length and width of the phone's glass. This is the first screen protector I've owed but seems like it should fit edge-to-edge, no? Anyway, it came with the case but I won't be using it.Unfortunately, this case turns the really sexy, sleek Nokia Lumia 925 into any generic, last-year's-model smartphone. What's the point of having such a great-looking phone if I never see it? The 925's smooth aluminum sides make it quite ""slippery"" in my opinion.

The voice prompts eliminate any guesswork and fumbling so often the issue with other models, it's great to receive verbal confirmation that your phone is connected, the call has ended, etc.The noise/echo cancelling feature worked well when I tested during Black Friday shopping, with a loud crowded store as the background I was still able to clearly carry on a conversation. The sound quality is good, however if you are seriously into streaming music this mono system may not be for you.Based on the features offered and the ease of use, I found this to be a great value for the money.

Mind you I've had to take a wire brush to the AC adapter receptacle once or twice to clean it out and get it to charge. It has four bars right now. So, I decided to stay loyal to Sony Ericcson and purchase this phone, the W810i, and I recieved it in the mail two weeks ago. All was well the first week regarding music transfer, signal, and radio. I decided to go a step further and get a Motorola H700 Bluetooth Headset and it worked okay with occasional beep telling me it ""lost"" the device. About an hour later I was hit with ""EMERG. CALLS ONLY"" across the screen with absolutely no signal. Okay. I then uninstalled my headset, waited a few minutes, and tried to make a call. Nothing. To roll this review up real good into a nice fatty boombatty this phone has gone completely haywire playing songs by itself when the keys are locked, incoming calls that I can't pick up, absolutely no calls going out, and just last night when I tried to call someone it made this loud high-pitched noise when it wasn't even on speaker until I had to turn it off. No more. Steer clear of all Sony Ericcson phones if you know what's good for you. Good functionality and signal are vital when it comes to buying a good phone. This one has neither. It is not a good phone. I want to break it.",1303,1 +1304,"Slick Design - Zero Comfort + +I bought this Sony PlayStation 3 Bluetooth Headset to use with Ventrilo on my PC. Though I planned to use it with my PS3 as well. I paired it with the IOGEAR Micro USB Bluetooth dongle that I also purchased from Amazon.I love the design of this headset and I've wanted one since it was first released. I read many positive reviews which influenced my decision. I figured this was a no-brainer and that I would be happy and satisfied.Unfortunately, this headset is completely uncomfortable. The ear-piece is just too large to fit comfortably in my ear. I'm a full grown man and my ears aren't exactly small! You really have to cram this ear-piece in tightly to properly secure it in place and prevent it from dangling loosely on your ear. My ear started to ache after 20 to 30 minutes of use. If you're petite and have small ears, don't even bother with this one.Another Reviewer suggests not pushing the ear-piece into your ear canal, but instead just letting it sit loosely on your ear. This is not an option if you plan to move your head at all. If the headset is not attached to your ear securely, it feels like it's going to fall off. It becomes difficult to hear what's being said when the ear-piece is not in contact with your ear canal.I like Sony products and I love the design and style of this headset, but it's simply too uncomfortable to use or recommend. I'm returning this headset and buying the Plantronics Voyager 510 instead.",1304,0 +1305,"Looks OK, Fits Poorly + +If you own the Nokia Nuron, you know it is a pretty slick phone. Literally. The white casing of the phone is pretty slick to the touch. A case is a good idea if you worry about it slipping out of your hands.I looked all over Amazon for a decent case. The few reviews stated most cases did not fit well. A co-worker told me about Otterbox cases and recommended them whole-heartedly. I saw found one for my Nuron and decided to go for it. After all, on Otterbox's site the case is $30. Amazon had it for only $14.It took almost two weeks for the case to arrive, but good things are worth the wait, right? The day it came, I opened the box only to see a slim, rubberized case. I put it on my phone to discover it does not fit all that snug. The side rails are pretty loose and I do not feel as though it hugs the phone safely at all.They are kind enough to include a screen protector with the phone. However, they are also sadistic enough to make the application stickers too sticky. After you apply the protector, one of the guide stickers would not come off easily, leaving a bit of residue on the case of my phone which turned black after one day of being in my pocket.I give this three stars because it seems to be average. The case makes the phone look good, and all the ports and buttons are easy to access. I would recommend checking out a couple of cases (like those $5 ones you see peppering the site) before dropping $14 on this one.

It also works to charge the iPad, but I haven't tested how quickly it charges.One other thing to note is that in my car, I have an audio line in to my stereo. On some of the cheaper USB chargers, I've had audio line noise that was generated when I had the USB charger and the audio line plugged into my iphone. This could be fixed with a Ground Noise Filter for the car, but now with the AmazonBasics charger, I no longer hear any line noise.The only other thing to be aware of is that the blue LED light is too bright.

The reasons I thought I wanted to upgrade from a very basic flip phone to the slightly-less-basic Sparq II were: QWERTY keyboard and music player.The good: It works fine for making calls -- the sound quality is better than my older flip phone, according to people at the other end. Like the flip phone I had before, it uses a micro USB for charging (so it's easy to get a car charger etc.), and supports Bluetooth.The not so good:a) QWERTY Keyboard: The keys are so small it's hard to hit the right one. I suppose I could get used to it in time, but it seems doubtful I would, given the small amount of texting I do. So, that feature is practically useless. Text entry on the numeric keyboard with word suggestions is faster and easier than the QWERTY keyboard for me.b) Music player: I primarily want to listen to podcasts of radio shows. These last about an hour typically, but I rarely can listen to the whole thing at one time. The music player is practically useless for this because (a) it doesn't remember where I was in the podcast -- when I exit and come back, I have to start at the beginning and (b) the fast forward button is more of a ""slow forward"", so even if I knew where I was in the podcast, I would have to hold down the fast forward button for ages just to start listening. I think it would take me several minutes to get to the half-way point, and if my finger slipped so I changed to the next podcast, or I got a call or something, I'd have to start over at the beginning. Ugh.c) Another annoying feature: the phone beeps when charging is finished, and there is not any obvious way to turn the beep off except maybe going to a completely silent mode (and I'm not even sure that would work, as I haven't tested it yet). I generally charge my phone at night, and I don't want it to beep when it's done and wake me up, but I also don't necessarily want to turn it to completely silent mode every night either... I might not remember to do that every night when I charge up, or might not remember to turn it back to normal when I get up. Ugh.So...

I stopped using VirginMobile because I can't hear voicemails and was using it for texting to two people one stopped. So right now I can only ""call"" out using IP Relay on a PC someplace, at home, Starbucks, library, etc. but I cannot receive incoming calls because I've got no ""personal device."" BTW, cops do not either, so they also cannot receive incoming ""deaf"" service calls by either TRS, IP Relay or VRS! Not only that, they don't think getting a mobile relay device is a priority...! So since I never ask anyone to do something that I know is not reasonable for me to do, I am trying to find a device that works and that is relatively cheap and easy. If I cannot use it, it's not going to work for a busy cop, ENT, fire, CSW, etc. This is also a huge problem if my residential wifi goes down I literally cannot ""call"" for a tech person, they cannot call me back and the ""chat"" does not work, comcast hangs up on IP Relay or puts it on hold for hours (I timed it for 3 hours and finally disconnected my end).So, before you go rolling your eyes at another AbbyJo adventure with telecom, let me tell you, that I DID GET IT TO POWER ON AND PLAYED W/IT I TRIED!!!! Just as I did try with the Corso press and the iPod Touch. (I replaced Corso press with Wells press then with Breville, and am still juicing and losing weight, now down 18#). iPod Touch was sleek and pretty, could put it in art museum but had no contrast and if you see my product review, despite Apple's normally wonderful customer service, they could not help one deaf lady get it turned ON without telling me to go to a NOISY STORE. (I am HYPERACUTE, I use only deaf telecom and related apps). But I digress.I bought this so that I would know when someone is CALLING ME and have some way to tell them they have reached a person who uses only written language and/or IP Relay, which does allow me to call ""hearing"" people. The bottom line is all the cell phone companies have lots of devices for hearing people but not many for people that need sign language or TEXT ONLY by live relay, which is a FREE service. So we need devices that are mobile some for old fogies that have questionable eyesight and need contrast and big screens and big keys, but with cheapo data-only or wifi-only plans. I am not seeing that on the market yet, close but not there yet...just as closed captions still aren't on the instant downloads...I am still asked to rewind, read lips, get the script...but I digress again.So I called customer service for AT&T;, they declined to try to help at all, referring me to PANTECH. PANTECH said it's a ""third party app"" meaning the IP Relay plug in is a third party app. i pointed out that without this type of app the device is worthless they said too bad, hung up. I called PANTECH back, they then tried to help me connect device to wifi, device would not connect but settings were correct. wifi is always on at home. i do not remember putting in any password. in any event, without wifi working on device, cannot use the app. I am not sure if amazon allows urls, but it's here, free for all deaf:[...] It shows I can use one of three or four devices, so far two have failed to work for this purpose and zero customer support for it.I did see a cool AT&T; scanner app that seemed to work for scanning the app from a symbol on a web page using the camera and the app, but could not see the app appear on the screen or try it without wifi working on the device. If amazon editors did not erase the url (public service url, editors!) then you will see there is supposed to be a quick easy way to get the app off the web page and into the phone. this same app would be cool to use in retail stores to see prices, get product info from similar coded labels, etc. maybe there is a bar code app too. but first i need to get THIS deaf telecom (IP RELAY) app on the device, or i don't have a working device! Hello?This particular product is very small and hard to see anything without magnifying glass for me personally. It is just the right size to lose in a pocket and leave in the washing machine. I did NOT do that but would not trust myself to see black on black in a pocket.This is second rejected mobile device i have tried in 2 months for receiving IP Relay which i still cannot receive, I cannot get a message from anybody, but for six years until March 2012 I could without a device...the provider lost its FCC license!Can anybody reading this come up with a large screen QWERTY keyboard device for DEAF THAT DO NOT SIGN, DO NOT USE VRS but still need the mobile wifi and camera features for other reasons? instant video would be useful too, for when i cannot communicate but would like a small momento of dramas created by others before i depart. I will read all respectful responses!i may try the blackberry next or a tablet of some sort that has wireless, but the app is designed as a plug in for blackberry, android and iPad/iPhone only, as far as i know, so not sure it will work on tablet but it should work on any computer (tablet being a hard drive, screen and Intel chip without a CD drive, what my son uses for school...)---",1322,1 +1323,"Won'T Charge + +I really wanted to love this but afters several days of trying to get it fully charged I still could not get it past one lit LED which means 25% charge not the 100% charge desired.

I only had 2 weeks to swap it if I needed to, so as soon as I got home, I began HEAVY usage of the phone. I did experience a few of the known issues (random reboots & frozen screen), so I took it in to exchange for another one. On the second phone I got on 10/21, I have not experienced any problems what so ever! The phone is absolutely amazing! It sounds to me that with this phone, its kind of the luck of the draw? Or quite possibly, operator error? I am a bit of a tech geek and I love to push my devices to the limits. In the 3 weeks that I have been using this phone, I have rooted it and tried several different custom ROMS & Kernels. Like the previous review said, rooting phones is not for everyone. However, I am willing to bet that my G2x is faster than 98% of smart phones on the market today. I have put this phone through EXTREMELY HEAVY use and overloaded it many times and it continues to live up to every challenge I throw at it. My fiance also got the G2x on our upgrade. She has not experienced any of the problems and did not have to exchange it for a new one. Her first phone is running stock and operates beautifully. I also have a friend with this phone, he was experiencing all of the same issues. He rooted the phone and put a custom ROM on it, and ALL of the issues disappeared. So my suggestion to any consumer looking into buying this phone is this. I highly recommend the phone to anyone. You will enjoy it MUCH MUCH more if you are tech savvy and will be rooting the device. Use it as much as possible within the 1st 2 weeks so you can find any issues and exchange or return it before the 2 weeks is up.

Upon receiving this "Original Samsung Galaxy Note 2 Gray/Titanium Front Glass Replacement," I immediately noticed that the color of the frame was considerably darker than the original screen that is currently on my Note II. Additionally, the original screen's corners are slightly rounded where glass meets the frame; the corners are square on this product, and the transparent part of the screen replacement is slightly larger on the replacement. The font of the Samsung Logo on the front is the same (Or very close, as far as I can tell), but it is slightly less bold than the font on the original screen. Lastly, and most importantly, this screen is not glass, nor is it Corning's Gorilla Glass 2 that is installed stock on the Galaxy Note II. This screen seems to be some sort of polymer and feels very plastic to the touch. This difference is VERY noticeable when using the phone's stylus on the screen, as it tends to stick to the screen and is not as smooth.My goal to install this screen and have zero noticeable differences so that if there were any other hardware defects, I would be able to utilize my phone warranty. Seems I may be out of luck on this one- I have already sent my Galaxy Note II to Samsung for repairs. While this service costs about 180 dollars (April 2013), For me personally, the price difference is worth it to still have your cell service provider cover any other mechanical or hardware defects/failures that you are not at fault for.I do not recommend purchasing this glass replacement, as it is not an "Original" screen or anything of the sort. I have not tried any other screen replacements for the Note II, but chose this one despite the lack of reviews so that I could determine whether it was in fact an original screen.",1337,0 +1338,"Love it! All you need and then some! + +What can I say that hasn't already been said before about this phone. Simply put, it's one of the best phones currently out there. Yeah, some people on Amazon have touted how much they love the Nokia 3650 (which I might add is simply too large a cell phone, IMHO, compared to others currently available like the T610). I thought long and hard about getting the T610 and compared it to the Nokia 3650 and I am so happy I went with the T610. If you're on the fence, do yourself a favor: go to your local phone dealer and compare the two side by side. Hold them in your hand, and if you can, switch them on and compare screens, etc. For me, the 3650 just felt - well...like I was holding a very big phone in my hand - too big for my tastes and too big to put in my pocket. I also don't like Nokia's user interface. Nothing out there beats the Ericsson GUI (graphical user interface). It's so intuitive and straight forward that one can master this phone right out of the box in minutes. Design wise, it's simply a work of art. Smooth lines, fits nicely in the hands, buttons are well spaced (although small - but not a problem), all features and functionalities are nicely executed. Bluetooth with the Jabra headset is simply awesome. Very cool and works well. Voice commands work for the most part (I've yet to see it work with ANY phone 100% of the time which is a result of the technology itself and not the phone), infrared (IR) is cool too - you can send contacts or your business card to anybody with a Palm, Handspring, other phone with IR, etc. A very nice feature. Picture associated caller ID is a wonderful feature as are custom ringtones. The ringtone composer (DJ feature) is extremely cool and allows you to completely compose and customize your own individual rings from scratch and they're not wimpy tones, they're like real music thanks to the Megatones feature - this is cooler than it sounds because virtually every phone out there today has annoying standard ring tones and this allows you to freshen yours up if your old one starts to grate the nerves. As for the camera, YES, it's not a 5 megapixel digicam but, like others have said, -- IT'S a PHONE - and just happens to have a camera built into it - it's not a camera with a phone attached. If you really want to take high quality pictures, get a camera. The built-in camera is suitable for what it's used for plus it does have some extra cool features (nite, sapia, etc.). Finally, it feels like a solid phone as it's constructed of aluminum and hard plastic.

Given how low the price is, it offers excellent value for money.",1360,0 +1361,"An audiophile's review of the MEElectronics Matrix BT Cans + +First of all, let me start off by stressing the fact that I am an Audiophile. This is someone who is incredibly engorged in sound quality and headphone quality. I own a pair of Senheisser HD555 over the ear studio headphones and a pair of AKG DJ K181 bass reflex headphones. These are high end high quality headphones, and I would settle for nothing less when purchasing another pair (as I did with these BT headphones)In the beginning, I wanted a new pair of 'phones that was light, and portable that I could wear around all day from class to class on my college campus. I needed these to have incredible sound quality, comfort, and functionality.Lets start with the comfort aspect of things. These headphones, unlike my other pairs, aren't as springy as I would like them to be. As in the lateral amount of force they apply to your head to stay put and envelop your ears isn't the best. They fit a little loosely on my head and sometimes don't really create that really good feeling acoustic seal that I look for in over the ear headphones. This however is minor and can be dealt with. The earpads of these phones are great in comparison to a lot of brands. The material is soft and comfortable, but creates a good seal around your ears when positioned right. They can be worn for hours on end and not get the slightest bit uncomfortable. 4 out of 5 for this categoryLets move onto sound quality shall we? Now as I said, I am an audiophile, so if the sound quality is amiss, I will be the first one to pipe up about it. The stock sound of these headphones is reaaaaally mid heavy. Since they are powered drivers from the battery, they have good boomy bass and crisp highs, but these get covered by the overwhelmingly shrill mid frequencies. My solution to this was to use an equalizer on the device that i was listening with. This balanced out the sound perfectly to my preferences. Having said all this, the sound quality might sound ok to the average Joe music listener, but to all audiophiles, prepare to use an equalizer for these puppies. 3 out of 5 for this category.Third and finally, functionality, AMAZING just saying. Great battery life, Great side button controls, Great headset feature, Great multi-device connection ability, Great folding feature and case, Great charging port and AUX port locations, and finally, Great great looks. 5 out of 5, MEElectronics definitely nailed the functionality on this pair of cans.Overall a great pair of headphones for the price. I payed 90$ on a deal website so I got a deal, but seeing as they're being offered here for 110, I still recommend them for someone looking for a great sounding, great feeling, and very functional pair of BT cans. I know i didn't give them the greatest score for the sound quality, but to the average set of ears, I'm sure they'll sound great. Therefore My final rating is 4.5 out of 5 stars. Too bad i can't show this rating on amazon haha. Either 4 or 5 stars so I'll be generous and put a 5 in.",1361,0 +1362,"Nothing can beat this !!! + +My case hunt ends here with this shiny, sleek and best fitting black leather sleeve that fits the iphone into my purse or clutch.

I get extra battery life for my iPhone.2. It is small and light for what it does.3. The kickstand is nice.Cons:1. The headphone hole is stupidly small. Only the smallest mini-plugs need apply. I had to drill mine larger so of course I cannot return it now.2. You must push the button in order to charge the battery. Why is this necessary? If you forget, the battery will die even if the case is fully charged. And no, you can't simply leave it charging all the time because it stops automatically when the phone is fully charged. Other reviewers have also said that it stops charging even before the phone is fully charged.3. If you don't have the case charging the phone, plugging in charges only the case. So you can charge the case all night but you may have no more power the next day than the native phone if you forget.4. The Digital AV adapter DOES NOT WORK with this case.

This time, instead of just rolling over and accepting another 2-year contract (with new ""dumb"" phone), I decided to look around.If I would have upgraded to a smartphone with data plan, my bill with sprint would have jumped by over $30 to nearly $100/mo for just my cell phone. So for someone who averages 75 min. talking and a lot of text messages, I couldn't see adding that much to our monthly bill.Enter T-Mobile Monthly 4g. Wow! I get 100 min per month and unlimited text/data, and it's less (per mo.) than I was paying with Sprint? I can definitely work with that! So I researched all their phones and spent time on foot viewing different models. I was unable to find the Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G in any store. I knew that the Galaxy SII was too large for my small hands and just didn't feel comfortable to me. The Galaxy S Blaze is basically the same as the SII, just smaller, with some weaker features (camera).I have been using this phone for over a week now and am EXTREMELY HAPPY! We get spotty reception in our home and this phone has the capability of wifi calling. So I can have perfect phone reception inside my home. I also use wifi for data while I'm home. It's much faster than what I can get w/o.I was able to sync the phone with my itunes and now have all music on the data card. I bought a 32gb mini sd from Amazon.

It's like the Swiss Army Knife of phones. Unfortunately, the main purpose that it was designed for, BEING A PHONE, it does poorly.This phone is 100% digital. And wow, can you tell!

They should sell this phone at Dive Shops, right next to the flippers and air tanks. Worse still, entire words and parts thereof simply fail to be transmitted and received properly.

He claimed that it was the best phone in the store. He said that it did everything and that it did everything well. Well, he was half right. I first purchased this phone a little over two months ago and I've had to have it replaced three times already! If that wasn't bad enough, the leather carrying case that I bought was also defective and broke within 30 days. And don't let me forget about the defective battery that came with the first replacement phone.Verizon won't refund my money and instead insists on giving me replacement phones until the problem goes away.

Unfortunately I am requesting a refund, as I find the controls unwieldy and unusable. They are on the bottom, and apparently the idea is to be able to control them by touch from the top, since otherwise you would pick the whole (rather heavy) device up and turn it over to do simple things like volume play pause and skip functions. There are no markings on the top to indicate which 'side' of the circle to press. This is not a 'haptic' touch, like an iPod, but a press down on the whole device to push on one side of the bottom. And even if you do manage to remember exactly how you set it down, and which side your controls are on, the controls themselves suck. That's the only word for it. Volume up is the same button as skip ahead (volume down is skip back), but it is nearly impossible to know which option you are going to get with any press. My experience is mostly the wrong one. Supposedly a long-press is skip, but the way you have to push the whole thing down, it is hard to get volume without also getting skip. This is very frustrating since I like to have a speaker when I use my iPad for video, and it really sucks when you are on a slow connection, and volume up skips you to the next video ,Bottom line is great sound, guys, but epic fail on the interface.

While this is not a small amount compared to many mid or low range phones, I was quite surprised that this was the case here.... 9 GB was available on a separate partition of the same memory, so frankly HTC was just underestimating power users' demand.That said, App2Sd simplifies the process of moving many apps to the other partition, and I have yet to run out of space. The screen is a beauty, and this phone is a runway model in terms of looks, it is beautiful yet refined. The kickstand should be a standard feature on all phones, it is very handy.

Plastic case. 8gb micro SD card.-Screen Protector already fitted.-Runs latest version Android (Ice Cream Sandwich)-Looks very good-Dual SIM function very easy to use. I have both an Irish and American SIM card in at all times and it flawlessly works both at the same time. I receive messages and calls etc. from both when they come in. When sending messages or making phone calls it asks which SIM you would like to use. I have it set to default for one of them (depending on which country I'm in) so it doesn't bother me by asking.-Battery lasts a decent amount of time. I am a hardcore phone user, generally flicking through images and videos online and texting non stop. Battery lasts me for about 6 hours of solid use so should last all day for normal use. The included spare battery is very handy.-Takes micro USB charger (International standard charger)-No problems with signal or dropping calls like some other users have reported.-Speakers are very loud, great for playing music.-Takes panoramic photos. Difficult to get used to but a great feature when used correctly.-Resilient. I've dropped it a few times now and it hasn't been damaged yet. I've been trying to find a case for it but haven't found any that I like on Amazon as of yet. Some other users recommend Samsung Galaxy Note cases for it (they fit when the plastic back is on it according to some reviews)Cons:-Doesn't charge while in use. When I have it plugged in and I have the screen awake the battery percentage doesn't increase (nor does it decrease). I charge it overnight for this reason so it's not a big deal.-Sometimes shuts off when I unplug the charger but turns back on then.-T.V. function is for analogue T.V. only which has been replaced by digital in most countries worldwide so I haven't been able to use this function.-When I received it the home key button was actually scratched pretty badly. The rest of the phone looked flawless though and this didn't bother me enough to request a replacement.-Occasionally the touch screen misbehaves or becomes unresponsive. I find this happens frequently with the charger that was included. I just use an old Samsung charger that I have. The included charger is a bit short also.-The charger port is a little loose. I find that my Samsung charger falls out when moved at all. USB cables fit it perfectly though (which doesn't really make sense as they're supposed to be the same size..?)-Camera and flash not very good. My previous phone also had a 5MP camera with flash and in comparison the Star takes really low quality photos. The flash is the worst flash I have every seen on anything.

Before purchasing this case I read the reviews and almost didn't get it because people were complaining about the case not fitting iPhone 4s and it being too flimsy but I went ahead and ordered it.

The case fit my iPhone perfect and it went over the charging hole and headphones perfect. I don't have a problem with the hole coverings popping open or anything.

The picture is so fuzzy, you can barely make out any of the words. It is no where near as sharp as the product pictured in the listing. In fact, it looks like somebody enlarged a thumbnail and lost all definition in the progress.

It does nothing whatsoever to protect the lens or screen. For the screen, it comes with a regular tack-on screen protector which is optically good (crystal clear), but a magnet for oil and dirt and difficult to clean. It's also a fair bit smaller than the phone's screen, so if you align it with the edge of the phone when applying, you'll end up with a pretty big gap on the other side.The material itself feels nice to the touch, and with the exception of the lanyard attachment and the SIM/SD slots all the phone ports are available, even the charging light has a little window. The volume rocker, menu button and power switch have nubs that allow you to operate them through the rubber; the screen lock slider has a cutout through which you can reach it.The material and design as such are pretty decent, but aside from protection from drops on the phone's narrow edges it offers no benefit to help keeping the camera safe.

Case dimensions with phone inside it are exactly 5/8 in thick X 2 3/4 in wide X 5 1/4 in long.Pro's- The case fits excellent and gives a sturdy rubberized feel to it. The 2 piece system of rubber housing and hard plastic outer shell keep the phone from moving inside the case. There is plenty of rubber lip overlapping the face of the phone to keep it protected without interfering with operation. The case has openings for the speaker, IR port, main camera, mic, 1/4 in jack, charging port and something else that I don't know what it is. The front facing camera, home button and sensor are not obstructed either. The power button and volume +/- buttons are activated by buttons placed on the sides of the rubberized portion...they are accurate and feel just like the buttons you are accustomed to. I cannot say enough about the placement and execution of these side buttons. The rubber caps for the charging port and 1/4 in jack close seamlessly and stay that way.Con's- It's not free. No belt clip. The lint free wipe that comes with the free screen saver actually puts lint on the screen while trying to wipe it off. The directions for the installation of screen saver are not present. The case adds considerable bulk.Other Thoughts- For $20 you will not find a better case.

Love it curves at the corners out of the solid polycarbonite body. The camera is outstanding with the Carl Ziess lens. The screen is very easy to use outdoors even in bright light and has great colors that are vibrant but not over done. The only thing that takes a little getting use to is the placement of the power button on the side with the volumn control and the camera button. The natural thought is that it would be on the top but it seems that Nokia was thinking that it would make it easier to handle with one hand. The sound quality of the phone calls are crisp and clear which all my contacts have told me they could understand me very easy. In fact they told me I sounded just a bit on the loud side so I have actually tried to tone it down a bit. I haven't had any troubles with a conectivity bug but some folks have reported some problems connecting to the AT&T network. To Nokia's credit they have quickly admitted a flaw with the firmware and have offered everyone that purchased before April 22 a $100.00 dollar credit towards there AT&T bill. I just installed the new firmware on the phone which came out only five days after the official release. I think this is a very honest and fair offer when compared to Apple's response the the antennea problems with the Iphone 4. I really love the Windows Phone OS and find it offers a very easy and comprohensive experience. I had read some reviews that say that the system lacks apps, but with over 80,000 currently available I havnen't found a situation that I could find an app for a particular need.

I almost didn't buy it due to these reviews but there was nothing else on the market that could do quite what this can do so I decided to give it a fair chance. First there are two versions of the MW1: the standard (reviewed elsewhere on Amazon) and the ""lite"". As far as I can tell the only difference is that with the lite version you don't get a 2GB Micro SD card and a Micro SD Card Reader. A 2GB card is worth only a few dollars and I didn't need the reader so I saved money going with the lite version. I used a 32 GB card I had on hand. Judging from many other reviews I expected problems reading the 32GB card. However one reviewer said if you keep the file structure basic and load only MP3 or Wav files you'll have no issues. So taking this advice I did just that and loaded several hundred songs onto the 32GB card. The MW1 had absolutely no issues. It read all of the files and properly sorted them. I can easily access and play every song I loaded. If you try to load a file format the MW1 doesn't support you'll probably have issues but that isn't the fault of the device. Additionally your song files should contain the proper MP3 tags so the MW1 can properly sort them into album, artist, genre, etc. Without these tags don't expect proper sorting, again not the fault of the MW1. There are many PC and Mac programs that can check and set the tags so if you want good results properly prepare your song files.Next I tested the other features. I paired it to my Samsung Galaxy S3. Worked perfectly the first time. I have all the phone and audio play functions specified. I then tested the radio function. I was able to tune all the normal FM stations in my area, some even displayed their name. Reception was excellent and the sound was the best you can expect with FM.I really can't find any significant fault with this device. The sound fidelity is amazingly good over bluetooth, much better than I expected based upon other bluetooth devices I own. Range was excellent with a few annoying dropouts now and then much as you'd expect with bluetooth. The local sources such as the FM radio and MP3 player also sound excellent although there is no equalizer or tone controls to punch up the bass or treble so expect clear and clean but very flat sound. Some basic tone controls would have been nice (the reason I took off one star) but you can always play your songs via bluetooth and adjust the tone on your paired device if this is an issue. MP3 player functions are basic but adequate. Menu access is basic and easy to understand and use. Pairing is easy. Controls are solid if not a bit small but the device is supposed to be miniature. Phone functions and controls are nicely featured and should satisfy all but the most demanding users. Volume was easily adjustable with a rocker switch from soft to very loud, a feature that other devices often do not do well. The MW1 is quite small and the clip works well. Charging was easy via the micro USB port. Battery life is superb. The MW1 appears as a standard external USB device on a PC making file transfer very easy. Support for firmware updates was easy to access and load. All in all this is an excellent device and works as advertised.",1436,0 +1437,"super battery + +I like this phone.

This is a great phone if you're not going to send any text messages. I've contacted the company but they asked me if I could send the phone in with my SIM card and they would have the phone back to me within a month.",1440,0 +1441,"It works, but not their best + +I got this for work. I had the CS55 at a previous job so I thought I'd go for this one at my new job. What drew me to it was that it was similar to my personal bluetooth headset, the classic voyager 510, and would sit in my ear instead of near my ear like the CS55. The CS55 wasn't the most comfortable or stable on my ear but it worked and I never had any connection issues; battery life was also really good.The CS70 disappoints in several areas. First, feedback and connection issues. Half of the time when I am talking I hear myself in the ear piece. I have tried every combination of volumes, channels, and distances between myself, the receiver and the phone with no luck. Second, battery life should be more for an office phone. I can't get much more than 2.5-3 hours of talk time out of it. If someone has one of these for work then it's because they use it a lot and can only charge it for 5-10 minutes between calls or over lunch. My voyager 510 (which I assume has the same batteries since the ear piece it almost identical) will talk for 5+ hours and I never had an issue with the CS55. Last, the receiver/charging base. It's a common complaint that the headset just pops off of the charging connection in the base. I knew this and figured it was because most people aren't careful. Well, you have to be very careful when removing and replacing the headset so as to get it to charge and not pop. I would say that I have this issue 10% of the time, but I think that is still way to often for how careful I am. There are still times where I return in the morning to find it off the charging connection when it was fine the previous evening.Kinda related, but I'd like to say a bit about the lifter unit. I had one at my previous job and figured I'd get one again. While I still find it helpful, I've found two things about it that will dissuade me from getting it next time. First, the lifter that I have this time is SUPER powerful; it drops the phone down hard and I think it's too loud for an office setting. The lifter that I had at my previous job was not so disruptive. Yes, I got both of the two units new, so I have to assume that there is just some serious variation in the stepper motors. Second, I installed the lifter immediately upon setting up my whole headset stuff and that lifter is not coming off of the phone without serious damage. This means that I would have had a hard time trying to return this CS70N, which I really wanted to do. This made me realize how little I actually need the lifter if the above to reasons have dissuaded me from buying it in the future. Just my two cents.In the end, this headset gets the job done and is much better than having to use the handset, but I think the CS55 works better as an office phone and the lifter isn't that great of an accessory, at least for me.",1441,0 +1442,"Love it!! + +Exactly as pictured & advertised.

I used the holder for less than 100 miles, first failure happened exactly at the 15 miles point where the teeth of the mounting point got stripped causing the phone to flop around when riding, solved this by applying some super glue and over tightening the screw, worked great for another 80 miles when the holder completley failed at the junction point (please see the pictures I uploaded of the breakage point) when I was riding I hit a seam on the road and the holder immediately snapped throwing my phone on the road chattering it into pieces. I guess the design would work really well if it was made of metal or maybe some good quality plastic or composite material.in summery here is what I think of the holder:Pros:-Smart Design and easy to mount and use.-Works well for laid back riding, like beach cruisers and maybe commuter bikes that see minimal vibrations.Cons:-very cheap plastic and cannot handle the stress or the weight of the phone.-DO NOT use on a road bike, this holder cannot cope with the vibrations and the stiff ride of these bikes, I lost my phone because of this holder, this applies to mountain bikes as well as they see a lot of sudden impacts on the trail.I gave this holder 1 star only, I lost an expensive smartphone becasue of the whay it's designed, so it's not worth it.Hope this helped.",1444,0 +1445,"Beware! + +First of all, I like the phone, but there is a major flaw with it.

The H670 is the best of the three.Many of the reviews I've seen for Bluetooth headsets talk about their styling, color and lights. Personally, I couldn't care less about that stuff. The thing sits on my ear where I don't see it, and in my opinion anybody using a headset looks pretty much like a dork no matter how ""stylish"" the ear dongle is. So, evaluate the look based on your preference.Functionally, however, there are a few things I really like:1. A discrete on/off switch. I despise buttons like the one on my Jabra, where you push the button for on/off...and to answer calls. This often results in doing a last-number redial when trying to shut off the stupid headset, so I much prefer the sliding switch of the H670.2. Multiple ear hooks. I was able to choose the one that fit snugly without pinching.3. Excellent sound quality both for calls and for voice dialing.4. Easy and reliable pairing.5. Good battery life.The H670 has everything on my list. I'll give it 4 stars just because I dont' have broad enough experience to rate it a 5. I do rank it as superior to the Motorola H850 (which isn't a bad unit by any means) and the low-end Jabra VBT 135 (which...well, in that case you get what you pay for).",1447,0 +1448,"This Roker dual port high-performance, Apple approved car charger is an affordable option for the on-the-go person .. + +Companies are definitely stepping up to the plate as they listen to what buyers need and want, including Roker, a new player in the field.

Scroll down and deselect BACKGROUND AUDIO; (Tap ON until the Red color turns off). Now you can exit the app and close the iRig Recorder software.

Both of these are easy to use but are bulky.This AmazonBasics Protective TPU Case is skin tight. It is made of a stretchy pliable plastic that feels durable and will protect the phone if dropped. However, the cover is a thin sheet of plastic that I had a difficult time putting on without adding ""air bubbles"" throughout the front of the iphone. It isn't too unseemly, since when the Iphone is in use, the screen tends to make the air bubbles disappear. But when the Iphone is dark, you can easily see them, and I think a very picky user will hate it. Of course, I probably wasn't patient enough when I put the plastic sheet on top.I have tried removing the protector a few times, and it is hard to do. This case is not meant to be taken on and off frequently. I am one that prefers to switch cases daily, and so this doesn't really work well for me.

I like how the case itself is separate from the kickstand. The kickstand is on the holster.In my opinion, there are two flaws with this case:1. The case itself has cutouts for the charging port, microphones and headphone jack, however the holster does not. If you are using the kickstand, you won't be able to charge the device or use headphones, unless you're ok with having the phone laying horizontally on the holster while the holster is vertical (this is what I do at night since I use my phone as an alarm clock).2. The second flaw is that sometimes when I am putting the phone back in the holster with the screen facing inwards the top of the hard shell tries to come off (this may also occur if you are pulling the phone out of the holster with the screen facing outward).Aside from the abovementioned flaws, which are by no means dealbreakers for me, this case is really nice. It's actually really slim, doesn't add much bulk, and holds the phone really securely in the holster. The phone is held so well in he holster that you can't really disconnect the phone from the holster with one hand alone (this may be considered a flaw for some, but I am happy to know that the phone isn't going anywhere). The power key and the volume rocker have a good tactile "clicky" feel to them as well.I like to judge things on whether or not I'd recommend it to a friend, and this case has met that level of review.

The First thing that I noticed was the size, it was incredibly small. My first concern was how could something so small, sleek, and elegant looking really perform the way that I needed it to. What a surprise I was in store for. The pairing was so easy it was as if this device was what my phone was yearning for. after pairing I began placing calls and was amazed how clear the voice quality was, It was as if the person was right there next to me. so clear that no one even knew that I was talking on a bluetooth device. It was also incredibly lightweight, you literally forget that you are wearing a bluetooth device, and it fits firmly around your ear so that you dont worry about it falling off or shifting while moving with no discomfort. I am extremely satisfied with my purchase. Motorola has really hit the mark this time. excellent quality though small it is remarkable sturdy, durable. you can rotate the mic to point it towards your mouth for optimal reception for the person you are talking with. also it comes with a charging/carry case with a protective lid to keep it from being damaged while traveling.

I decided to try it since I have been stuck on iOS 5 baseband 04.11.08(still no unlock till today)for over months. I followed one of the comments left here and activated the sim online after installed it in a spare phone, it worked. I was able to make phone calls with that phone. However, when I switched the sim to my iphone 4, it kept giving me 'NO SERVICE' no matter how many times I tried to reboot it. I knew it wasn't the sim's problem because it still works when I installed it on another phone (not a smart phone). So it had to be the iphone 4. I called at&t; customer service( I was trying to avoid having to contact them, but I had no choice :(. ) After waiting for a long time the representative told me it could be the sim being locked to the phone I used to activate it, hence it's not working with iphone. He tried to unlock for my over phone, but he couldn't do it, he then suggested me to go at&t; store. So I went, and got a replacement sim for free. They installed it for me on my iphone 4, but it was giving no service again!Long story short, after another phone call with at&t; representative, and being told 50 times ""gophone sim is not compatible with iphones"", I finally got it to work. For those of you who might be having the same problem, my solution was to update (restore) the firmware to the newest iOS. Apparently, because I had my iphone 4 jailbroken. And it's making the phone not recognizing the at&t; sim... I'm not really sure what happened, but after I updated it to iOS 5.1,it worked! AT&T;'s logo is up at the left hand corner with signals and everything.Overall I think it worth the money. I accidently updated my iphone 4 to iOS 5.0.1 without preserving my baseband, there's still no unlock for 04.11.08 right now. With this sim card, I can use my phone again. Which is great because I'm not longer carrying an expensive 'ipod touch' around :)",1459,0 +1460,"Broke immediately! + +This is terrible- it never worked and fell apart immediately upon the first trial of use.Frankly, it is a joke.....",1460,0 +1461,"Surprisingly Good + +So I won't lie, when researching a portable battery product for my mobile devices, I was a bit skeptical with this brand. I had never heard of Anker, nor of LaptopMate... but I couldn't really deny the ratings as well as the price. As most people are, I was concerned that this might be a bogus company selling a sub par product. Luckily, I trust Amazon as a reseller, and took a chance.The Anker Astro3 is a surprisingly good device, as it turns out. Not too large or too heavy, I have witnessed this device recharge two devices at the same time. And I'm not talking just to simple phones, I'm talking an iPad and a newer Windows Mobile Phone. In fact, I had my Windows Mobile Phone hooked up to it and the Anker Astro3 had it fully charged in a couple hours flat. Ran the Astro3 to somewhere around 60% (I'm guessing as it had 3/4 lights left and then went down to 2/4 lights after beginning to charge another device.So now, you're probably thinking that 40% means around 4000mAh of power were used. The Windows Mobile Phone has around a 1800 mAh Battery in it... so somehow things don't seem to be adding up. Well, they never do, in the truth of that matter. I don't expect to get every mAh out of the Astro3 regardless of the last time I charged it and the last time it was put through it's paces. That's not truly feasible, and knowing that for $50 I can get 2.5 charges on my mobile phone is pretty good.This is for backup, not for every day use... well, unless you need it for every day due to a lack of plug, then it's still fine! If you drain your phone down more than twice over a day you either need a better phone or you need a newer battery. And in an imperfect system, this might be the best we could get overall. I know that so far it has saved me a couple times in a conference and at two airports. Couple that with an 18 month warranty, and you have something really good here.I will reserve my fifth star until I've had this for around a month and put it through it's paces. This will involve a full charge, followed by it recharging a series of devices from 0 to 100%. Then I can tell you how much juice I can squeeze out of this thing from start to finish.

I love the phone and wanted to get a good case to keep it safe. This case seemed (by appearances) to be good quality.There are two major problems with the case. First, it is somewhat of a hassle to get the phone into it at all. If you get this product, be sure to take the rubber insert out, put the phone in the insert, then put that into the plastic case.Second, and by far the worst, is the fact that this case is slip prone. I don't know about you, but I don't want my phone slipping out of my hand very easily. Especially one that is as new as this one. The material that makes up the solid plastic part of this case is very slick. And not grabby slick like shiny plastic can be, but rather it has a matte finish. No matter how you hold it the majority of the phone your touching is the slick plastic, and that really endangers it.The quality of the case itself is fine. The rubber and plastic are thick and seem to be well-made. I just can't trust it, I'm afraid.**EDIT 6-14-2013**While I still hold that the case is too slippery for my hands, I've been able to fix it so now I love the case.

I dove head first into the frighteningly complex world of In Ear Monitors (IEMs) in order to make sure I got the best deal for the dollar.I settled on the the VSonic GR-02 IEMs after a month of research comparing reviews of the various models in my price range. I had never heard of VSonic, or 50% of the companies I was reading about even though I'm a musician with some knowledge of Pro Audio, so I just had to get over that. Then there was the fact that this is Chinese product, which instantly screams sweat-shop and low quality to me. After reading enough reviews I was able come to terms with Chinese IEMs being as good or better than their US or EU competitors.When I received my package from Amazon I was immediately impressed with VSonic's packaging and presentation. The box was easy to open, not requiring a chainsaw or blow torch like so many plastic packages do, and the product was snugly set in a form board to prevent damage during shipping. The box contained A LOT of different tips to meet the user's needs; unfortunately without any instructions on how to tell them apart. There were three ""hybrid"" tips (foam inside of a latex cup), one set of two flange tips, three shallow plain black latex tips, and six pairs of clear latex tips of varying size. After sorting through them for an hour I was able to figure our that the colored canals indicate sizes (relative to what I don't know) and that there were two basic shapes of each size; slightly oval and a perfect half circle. The IEMs themselves are well constructed, felt solid to the touch and have a nice rubber pumper around the edge that goes down the cable a half an inch. My only gripe is that some of the glue that sticks the rubber to the driver housing is smeared a little, giving it cheap look.Plugging them in right away gave me sub-par results, which is to be expected. Speakers of any real quality need to ""break in"" before they loosen up to a point where they give the listener any warmth. Some of the bad reviews may be results of people that were expecting them to be awesome right out of the box. I had to let them run for several hours with either music or white noise playing through them before I finally ""got it."" I also had to get the tips right. The wrong size or shape will affect the isolation, which will then let the highs and lows bleed a little, creating a tone that is nasal and mid centric. I opted for the rounded, large, hybrid tips to get the best results for me.Once I got the GR02s set up right, the difference between them and my Sony earphones were like the difference between low-def and hi-def TV. You know you like it, but you aren't really sure why until you go back to your old stuff and realize its terrible. The sound is bigger and give an impression of space between the instruments that I couldn't hear before, as well as allowing me to hear subtle little background details. The sound profile matched a lot of the descriptions I had read: solid bass, nice mids, and highs that are sufficient but lack any sparkle. Since I don't have a $100 pair of IEMs handy, I'll take their word for it. There are times where the highs do seem a little lackluster. Bass freaks that like hard hitting sub-bass are going to be disappointed by the natural, rounded bass of the GR-02s.For the money I spent on them, I think this is one of the better investments I've made. The VSoinc GR02 earphones present sound in a way that simply makes enjoying music that much easier. The tone isn't 100% perfect, but still far better than anything I've been able to get from the cheap ear buds and earphones I've used before. The improvement in audio quality is so much that I can't help but wonder how much better the $180 VSonic GR07 IEMs could be. I may become an IEM junkie now.Pros:1.) Until you try a quality IEM, you don't know what you are missing. The details of what you are listening to become so much clearer when you are using the right equipment.2.) The packaging and accessories are top notch. It gives the product a sense of quality and value to the customer you won't get from Klipsch or Sennheiser at the same price point.3.) I find them comfortable to wear for an hour without thinking about it.Cons:1.) If you don't break them in and don't use the right tip for your ears, they just won't sound that good. Its up to the user to figure out the tip situation.2.) In regards to the tips, they are a bear to get on and off. While this is a plus in that they won't just pop off at the wrong time, some users may become frustrated as they try different tips.3.) These aren't easy to find, so you are gambling a little with something you really can't try or return if you don't like them.Bottom Line: I really dig the VSonic GR02 IEMs. They make me want to listen to music not just as a distraction, but as an experience to be enjoyed. Since I have a real love for music, that is pretty special to me. Some people may not be willing to roll the dice on a set of $35 earphones from a company they have never heard of just to listen to some poorly ripped 160 bit-rate MP3s while they walk the dog. That's totally understandable, and these may not be for those people. But if you listen to music to LISTEN to music, treat your ears to a little sugar.UPDATE 07/14: I accidentally left these in the pocket of my pants when they went through the wash (not the dryer).

I still have my Droid 4 at home as a backup wifi device, since it works GREAT on wi-fi and I still miss that great 5 row keyboard when I need to respond to those long emails in more depth and detail.

The Belkin HD has worked like a champ, with excellent coverage. Well, at least compared to the Rocketfish unit, which is the only other adapter I've tried. Plus, I like that it has optical, coax, minijack and RCA outputs. I use an iPhone 5 so I can't take advantage of the NFC connection but the outstanding range is why I'm keeping this.Update: Audio quits unexpectedly. iPHone 5 indicates it's still connected. Blue light on the Belkin shows it's also still connected. But no sound from the speakers. I have to either reboot the Belkin or switch BT off and on on my phone. Annoying. Think I'm going to have to return this.",1494,0 +1495,"Careful what you pay for!!! + +This has been a disappointing and frustrating experience. The gist of the matter is that this phone is not what i took to be advertised on Amazon by Worldwide Distributors. I assumed it to be a Unlocked android device which is updated by Google, like other ""Nexus"" devices.When the phone arrived i noticed that the box itself was not sealed the battery was in its plastic pouch which was crumpled and was already opened. When i booted up the phone it did not ask me to log into a Google account (like a normal, new android phone would do) it booted straight into the home screen. I ignored all this, considering a couple of factors, i had to travel out of the country and needed a reliable phone and since the phone basically worked i was OK with this fact. The phone hardware itself looked new. When i contacted the seller i did not mention the above to them since it was not pertinent to the issue i had at hand which is described below.Just about a month after i receiving the phone it began to reboot continuously and i had to do a factory reset which wiped off all my data. Unfortunately i was travelling at the time out of the country and i was not able to contact the seller (Worldwide Distributors) immediately.When i contacted the seller (Worldwide Distributors) the only line i got to hear in their emails was that i was out of their month long warranty period and they would do nothing about it.After a little digging i discovered another issue, that this phone was a version of Ice Cream sandwich that is not updated by Google but rather by Samsung (This is not advertised on the product page) and even that is not happening (it is stuck on ICS version 4.0.1). This is a Japanese version of the phone which is for NTT docomo and has the yakjuxe version of the firmware.Basically the whole reason for buying this ""open"" phone has been nullified and i feel like i wasted $530 odd dollars over it.What happened to accountability for what Worldwide Distributors is selling??

I got it to mount on my dashboard just fine and LOVE it. It was a great price as well. This is great customer service. To go from a 2 out of 5 rating to a 5 out of 5 is a pretty good sign and it's all because of them caring enough to go that extra step to call me and walk me through setting it up.

Also headset is too big, hardly fits in the ear.",1501,0 +1502,"Wireless vs. Sound Quality - Can't have both + +I've had these headphones for a few months now. I bought them due to the fantastic reviews about the superior sound quality over other bluetooth (and even wired) headphones. I'm an audiophile, and I've experimented with other Bluetooth headphones--and though I've been consistently disappointed, I figured the technology might have come around to yield a pair of high-quality wireless headphones.Well, has it? Yes--and no.One reviewer here or on another site said these are studio DJ-quality headphones. That reviewer obviously never listened to studio DJ-quality headphones. Are these headphones much better than your average $35 bluetooth headsets? Yes. But don't expect to be testing tracks with these. If you're a serious audiophile, you will hear that high pitches or cymbal crashes get crackly. The bass is good, but you will hear the difference of how these headphones interpret electronic music to rock music (heavy metal fans might be disappointed with bands that use a wide range of sounds). And here's the other thing: no matter how good the quality of your headphones actually are, you're still listening to them via bluetooth. It's like radio--through even the best pair of speakers, it still sounds like radio. You *will* get interference. You will get static. I've experienced sound problems when I had my bluetooth phone next to me (I eventually disabled it), or when I had my external hard-drives running. God help you if you're in a cafe near a microwave, which will cause the sound to cut out completely. If you are looking for complete consistency in your listening experience, don't get these. If you don't care that much and just want to get wireless, you'll probably be fine. You might even find that you love them. It's a question of how much you care about the sound quality versus the wireless factor.The usability of these headphones is also a downside. Getting them to sync up (I use them primarily with a MacBook Pro) is a pain. It took me awhile to figure out that the headphones are actually connected to the computer, even though the Bluetooth icon doesn't read a transmission signal. Once you've got the hang of it, it's fine, but it always feels like a touch-and-go situation. I've had them desync on me for no apparent reason, causing me to turn them off and on again multiple times to get them to re-sync and start playing again.In closing, the fact that Sony originally priced these at $200 is laughable. If you're shelling out that kind of money for sound quality, get a real pair of wired studio phones. While the construction and comfort factor on these things is great, they should be in the $75-$100 range, no more. After a certain point, if you're buying headphones for the wireless factor, consider how badly you want good sound quality. It might be worth it to get a cheaper pair if you don't care that much. That said, if you really need the ""best"" of both worlds (more like the above-average of both worlds, in this case) than these are probably about as good as it's going to get.",1502,0 +1503,"Great fit and look on my iPhone 4S 64 GB + +Received this case yesterday on the same day I received my iPhone 4S 64GB and I can tell you it met all my expectations.

The cutouts on the case allow for full access to the volume and mute buttons as well.Here are some key points that made this a great case:1. Easy access to all iPhone 4S buttons, even with large and fat fingers like mine! :-)2. The case has a small lip which allows you to lie your iPhone face down and the screen doesn't touch the table.3.

Even more pathetic Verizon support. + +Let me take you back to the time before I had Verizon and a Motorola Q, a time of bliss. Oh the days when I could plug my phone into a wall and it would charge! When the phone rang, I could answer it, and when I wanted to end the call, I could, just by pressing a button!Now, in the cruel fall of 2006, I am chained to the Q, which is chained to the incredibly poor customer service at Verizon. Imagine a man chained to a three thousand pound boulder, which is in turn chained to the planet Jupiter nearing a black hole. Yes, it's that bad.I made the mistake of purchasing a Q to send and receive calls, with an option to also send and receive data. I spent a paltry $130 a month, but this didn't seem to matter the second time my Q bricked up and refused to boot. I called tech support. ""Hey tech support,"" I said, ""this phone will randomly crash but the screen freezes. So, I'm missing calls even though it looks like the phone is fine. Plus, I'll look at the battery meter which says full, and then thirty minutes later my phone is off. And now it won't even turn on.""Tech Support replies, ""Have you tried unplugging the phone, removing the battery, and letting it sit?""Hmmm. No, I said. But I bought the $40 extended battery. And a car charger. And I keep both with me at all times, just in case the phone dies, or rather, for when the phone is sure to die, and I can remove the battery, plug the phone directly to the wall, and at least check the messages I missed while the phone was dead.Tech support sends me a refurbished phone - two day FedEx! They couldn't send it overnight. Perhaps there's some $300 plan where they care if you can send and receive phone calls, but it's unfortunately out of my budget.So I got my third phone. Yes, it would still crash and randomly turn off. Sometimes I would try to end a call, but it would just sit there, the minutes ticking away. The only way to recover it would be to remove the battery. You'd see me at Starbucks, sporting my Q and buying a chai latte. ""Yes Bill, 200% ROI. No, totally doable. Totally."" Then, I'd hit the red button, wait, furrow my brow, set all of my things on the floor, take the back cover off, remove and re-install the battery, and then turn the phone back on. That lovely Windows Mobile sound would echo like a death rattle in the cafe, and then I'd stare at it until it booted completely, to see if I missed yet another call during the resurrection.And today, I arrived at the Verizon store, for the 7th time. This time, in Atlanta. I figured, maybe it was just my small town store that couldn't handle my problem. I explained - politely as I could - and said the phone had died again, and would no longer charge. Again. I received a blank stare, and then a sticky note with a number on it. I said, ""You want me to call someone at Verizon to complain about my phone that doesn't turn on?"" He stared back, blankly, and without a trace of irony said, ""Yes.""I said, ""So, there's no one at this Verizon store - this is Verizon, isn't it? - who can give me a phone, right now, that works?""He said, ""No. We could give you a new phone - we're one of the few stores that stock PDA phones - but we're out of the Motorola Qs right now.""I said, ""Because you're replacing so many?"" No answer, but a finger extending to point to my yellow sticky note. I wept quietly in the car.I returned to the client site where I was consulting, and asked if I could borrow his phone, while apologizing for not answering my broken cell phone. Lo and behold, they had a three strikes policy, and I was eligible for a different phone! He asked me to hold while he got approval, and then returned and said somberly, ""Unfortunately, since you have had your account only six months, we are unable to offer you a different phone.""I sat back in my chair, and tried not to spontaneously combust. ""I have given you over $1300 in the past six months in service fees and equipment purchases. And I am not allowed to have a different phone, when the one you sold me doesn't work?""There was nothing he could do except try - TRY - to acquire for me a ""brand new, in the box"" Motorola Q. Instead, I had a different plan. I had them turn down the calling plan as much as was possible, and requested all data features be removed. Then I bought and older Verizon phone from a friend, which I will use to send and receive phone calls - hopefully - until I have found a different provider who cares to provide.So beware of Verizon and the Motorola Q if you are demanding enough require that your equipment works most of the time to send and receive phone calls.

There are many detailed in depth reviews of the Tekkeon here on Amazon, so I will instead address some other issues that people seem to have.The power unit will work as designed and will be reliable if you do not exceed the limitations of the device. Again for emphasis, do not exceed the limitations of the device and it will serve you faithfully!(There is a Summary at the end for the main highlights)1) Overloading the TekkeonDo not attach a phone or any device that will draw more than 800mAh (.8 Ah)! Yes, this means some of those Android phones with giant screens, Dual Core Tegras, etc. If your phone draws more than 800mAh it will overload the little Tekkeon and burn it out sooner or later! It was not meant to supply power for those super power hungry devices. Know the electrical specs of the device you intend to attach to it!2) Charging rechargeable batteries in the TekkeonDo not attempt to recharge partially charged batteries! It very briefly touches on this in the manual and yes, they should have addressed it more. With regards to charging batteries, it appears that the Tekkeon is a simple timer charger that sends a given amount of current for a fixed amount of time and then shuts off.If you try to recharge partially charged batteries, the batteries will get full too quickly before the Tekkeon turns off. The batteries then shed this excess energy through heat. Solution: only charge empty or near empty batteries. You should be using a smart charger (like the La Crosse BC9009 or Maha MC9000) to recharge partially charged batteries.To be safe, I rarely use the Tekkeon to charge and instead use a smart charger. It really is better for the batteries and for the Tekkeon this way as it was primarily designed to provide power, but in a pinch can be used to recharge. If you find yourself with empty batteries and need to charge them, go ahead and let the Tekkeon charge them. It can and will safely do this. But don't use it as your main battery charger.Lastly, if you are in a bind and need to use the Tekkeon as a charger, let it fully charge them without disconnecting it. If you do have to unplug it before the cycle finishes, do not immediately replug it back in to charge more. When you unplug it, this will reset the timer and the result will be too much charge at the end of the charge cycle as explained above.Restated again, if you do disconnect it before the charge cycle finishes, do not try to charge them again in the Tekkeon until the batteries have been run down. Or take them out and use a smart charger to finish them off.3) Tekkeon does not charge my smartphone/device fast enoughModern smartphones need the data pins (D+ and D-) on the USB cable to be shorted. This lets the smartphone know that it is connected to a USB power that can supply more than 500mAh.In the android world, most phones can sense three conditions:a) No cable attachedb) USB power attached -- phone will draw max 500mAhc) AC power attached -- phone will know it can draw over 500mAhI suspect this is related to the slow charging issue. In the Fall of 2009, all of the major cell manufacturers and governing bodies agreed to standardize on the MicroUSB plug to charge cell phones. The standard also specified the shorting of the USB data pins to let devices know they are attached to a high power USB port.My android phone detects the Tekkeon as USB power, so it draws only 500mAh from it. I am perfectly fine with it charging at 500mAh instead of 700-800. It takes a little longer, but it still charges.For the Tekkeon to supply more current to your device, the idea is to 'trick' your phone into thinking it is connected to AC power when it is really connected to the Tekkeon. This is can be done with a `Charge Only' type cable (where the D+ and D- pins are shorted together). But do not exceed 800mAh as discussed above!! You would need to also check how you phone senses how different chargers are attached.4) The attached device discharges into the Tekkeon(i.e. the Tekkeon discharges my phone after it finishes charging my phone).I suspect this happens when the batteries in the Tekkeon are near empty and it just finishes charging up the device. Best I can offer is, try to always unplug the Tekkeon from the device when finished charging OR when all three power level LEDs on the Tekkeon turn off. If there is not much power left in the Tekkeon, it will only partially charge your device and the Tekkeon LEDs will all turn off..Unplug it! Perhaps there is no one way flow regulator built in (any EE people care to chime in?). This is probably due to the fact that the Tekkeon also has to be able to charge batteries, so power flows both ways.Summary:1) Don't overload your little Tekkeon, 800mAh or less!2) Don't use it for recharging batteries (use only in emergencies and with fully depleted batteries). Use a separate smart charger!3) Be patient when it is charging or use a cable with the USB Data lines shorted, but pay attention to #1 above!4) Unplug your device from the Tekkeon when it's finished.P.S. I use Eneloops in the Tekkeon and they work well together.",1519,0 +1520,"Cingular's 6682 semi-smart phone is a solid piece of work. + +I got my 6682 as an insurance replacement after my other phone went sliding down the highway at 75 mph.... :( The increase in size took a while to get used to, but now I like the solid feel of a palm size phone.

So, I wouldn't expect it to provide much more charge than the stock 1500mAh Samsung battery, and unfortunately, I wasn't surprised. I've had time to ""prime"" the battery now (5 to 6 charges) and have been using for about three weeks now. It has almost identical performance to the OEM battery... maybe 1 hours more charge.There are 3000mAh replacement batteries out there (you can get them at Best Buy) but it requires an expanded rear compartment... I didn't really want to increase the size of my phone. How lame would that be? So, I've got two batteries for long days of travel, a car charger, and keep a watch on power-sapping applications.Finally, I did some research on battery life. Busted Myth #1 - ""let your battery run down before recharging."" I was actually told this by my tech guys at work... totally bunk. With Lithium Ion batteries, you want to run down to about 35% charge before a recharge - this will add hundreds of charges to the life of your battery. Basically, you've got a choice of taxing your battery's life by running it down, or dealing with more frequent recharges and keeping your battery fully functional for another year.Busted Myth #2 - ""Don't overcharge with a high power AC or car adapter"" - totally bunk. Your phone will only suck up what it needs. Additional charging capacity stays at the source. So, get the Motorola 1000mAh car charger, not the crappy Samsung 700mAh.Finally, heat is a major batter killer. Heat + charging is the worst battery killer. Hence, PowerMat chargers are absolutely toxic to batteries because of the conductive heat generated during charging. Stay away from those things. Keep spare batteries cool (out of your car and direct sunlight) and with at least a 40% charge --> Never let Li-Ion batteries run down to completely empty. You'll kill their recharge sensor making them useless.",1521,0 +1522,"not great, but ok + +I got this phone for my father. The phone is simple enough but could be simpler as far as usage. The ease of use for someone who is elderly is just ok, honestly if they don't already know how to use a cell phone (access address book etc) this phone is not that intuitive. The worst though is when you call the phone. My dad can hear me, but to me he sounds like he's talking into a tin can underwater. I haven't found anything else and it took so long for him to get used to this one, therefore I hesitate to replace it. The emergency button is a great feature, just wish this phone was more user friendly and of a higher quality.",1522,0 +1523,"Awful range and terrible quality but good fit + +I bought this product from amazon to pair with my laptop and mp3 player. Unfortunately, it has horrible range, extending out only to about 7 feet and only if there is a clear line of sight. In any other case, the audio quality drops off precipitously. I have tried pairing this with both my macbook pro and my mp3 player and in both cases the range is terrible. Also, simply waking around wearing the headphones with the mp3 player in my pocket yielded terrible static as well.On the plus side, it does have a very good fit--snug yet not uncomfortable for long uses. The fit also does a very good job of blocking out ambient sound, though not as well as dedicated noise canceling systems. Pairing with devices was similarly without problem.These headphones would have rated better if not for the poor range, which effectively negates any advantage of having wireless headphones.",1523,0 +1524,"Not my best decision... + +I have a few things to point out about this wallet case:1. There is no way you can fit credit cards in it or even money since when you put the phone in it's already hard to close.2. Between the leather and the credit card holder you can fell something like cardboard and a little padding that only makes the wallet fatter.3. The pink TPU is glued to the leather and it does not seems very resistant, 1 hour of use and is already ripping appart.4. That hideous smell. (I'm not picky about that, I want to think it will fade away eventually and I hope this happens before the TPU becomes independent from the leather wallet).5. The most important thing and the main reason that made me dislike this wallet: The TPU lifts the screen protector ALL THE TIME. There is no way to fit it properly and I am a pro placing those, I tried getting the phone in the case with the screen protector already on the first time and it was a failure, the second time I placed the protector after getting the phone on the case with the same results.Besides the fact that is pink and I like girly colors I will admit that I deeply regret buying this case.If you are not going to put money or cards in it, if you dont use a screen protector, if you have magic glue to reattach the TPU to the leather and if your sense of smell is permanently damaged then this case is for you!!!!",1524,0 +1525,"ehhhh, not convenient.... + +The blue light indicators are too bright, so I couldn't use the case while I was playing around with my phone. The lights bothered me a lot.I couldn't connect my headphone because of the design.It's a bit heavy as you might expect it to be.Unless you want to blow up your phone, do not charge your phone and the case at the same time. This is stupid since you have to charge the battery, then use the battery top charge the phone. Only 50% charging capacity if your phone is idle worth few passive apps. Just doesn't make any sense.",1525,0 +1526,"Great phone and SIM card for a trip to italy + +Nice neat small cell phone that comes with $5 credit on and included SIM card which should be enough to get you started in case you have to make a call. After doing a bit of searching, this seems to be the best combination for an ""Emergency/Short Conversation"" phone that will work in Europe (not in the both US and Europe unless it is not ""Quad Band"" - I think the only drawback for a phone this price).The phone is small enough to be hidden in a fist and comes with a few small folded manuals and a simple headset/earbuds. Did not yet try out as we did not go on the trip yet. Comes with a headset and a adapter which has a us plug and also plug adapter to fit the two round prong outlets (like Italy)and will work with both US and European voltage.If you receive calls in the right countries (France, Italy, Spain, United Kingdom), it is free (no charge against the included SIM card) but will cost the caller whatever the charge is for their country to call you as long as the +44 (UK) number is used. To call the phone when it is in one of those countries from the US you have a few options (check their website for current rates and plans):- Call the provided 800 number, put in the phone's +44 number, and you can talk at no additional cost for a total of 30 minutes; more than that, 49 cents/minutes gets charged against the SIM card credit- go to their website where you can put more money the sim card and also get a US number for the phone (no additional charge); when that number is called from the US, the rate when I wrote this was 30 cents a minute charged against the SIM card- call from a US home or cell phone (rates vary - may be close to 30 cents/minute or much more) or with a service like gmail (about 18 cents/minute) and in this case it is charged to the caller's bill, with no charges against the SIM card in those countries. Please note when researching rates it is more expensive to call a UK mobile number which this is than a landline.- Sending texts to the US number will cost 15 cents. Sending texts back is 75 cents.All of the above will still work if you put the SIM card in another GSM phone, so even if the phone gets broken you should be able to use another compatible phone and still use the same number.The simplest way to use it is If you want to call someone back home, just call them from the phone (cost 99 cents minute) or text them (75 cents), give them the US number and tell them to call you (again, 30 cents/minute).",1526,0 +1527,"No instructions. + +I have to rate it one star because this is my first experience with solar things and there are no instructions.

For a month this case has been in and out of my pocket countless times and the painted sections of the case look the same as the day I received it. The holes cut in the case are perfect. Any headphones you use with your iPhone will fit perfectly.

I have seen many types of Cases and bumpers and many of my friends own the Defender Case; it felt like a rock in my hand. The MAIN purpose of new technology is to increase pro-activity, within such a small device. Cell Phones are getting smaller, stronger, and faster. Adding a thick case to your phone DEFEATS the purpose of buying an Iphone. You might as well buy a smarth phone withj a 4.7"" screen.This Case was well worth the $30. The Rubber bumpers extrude out in all directions so if and when it falls the bumpers are in contact first. THIS case has a hard but great feeling plastic on the surfaces, with rubber bumpers on the corners. This case Keeps the Phone almost the SAME weight and SIZE!!!The looks are great for people who are into industrial/engineering environments.The only reason why this gets 4 stars is because the ( + - ) volume tabs are flush with the surface, so if you closed your eyes, and tried the inc/dec volume, you couldnt FEEL the location; unless you first feel the Silent switch ( which by the way fits AMAZINGLY perfect ).

I love the colors.And I loved all the reviews that I saw on here.But I am disappointed.Once you put the phone in the case, you cannot press the volume buttons or the power button.There is no feedback, it just feels mushy. It's impossible to press the button.As far as the screen protector, it's also the same in regards to how I feel about it.I love the material. It's thick instead of the thin plastic you usually see but the edges around the buttons on the bottom and the top of the ear piece stick out and I feel that it will stick on to something else and start peeling. Basically it will not stay stuck on.Overall disappointment. I am debating to return this product and just get a speck case. Those might scratch on the back but you can press all the buttons and get the same level of protection.REVIEW JUNE 2First off I want to thank CellKase.The new case they sent me is a little better. But it'd be a stretch to say that they fixed the problem.The power button is still harder to press. There is a SMALL amount of feed back but you have to press in the right area.The volume rocker is a little better but overall this case is out of poor design.I feel like it is sturdy and a strong case just the buttons are not providing enough feedback and its just like pressing on nothing.Overall I am still disappointed as I love the design and the coverage this case provides.I will mull it over the next few days and decide whether or not if I want to keep the case.",1535,1 +1536,"A Really Good Backup Battery + +I wanted a back up, genuine Samsung battery for my Note 3 because they are described as making huge demands on batteries.

Thank you for your quick shipment and for carrying something so useful.",1538,0 +1539,"I really wanted to love this phone + +I have to say, when I ordered my Storm, I really wanted to love it. I have an Apple iTouch and was used to typing on the Apple iPod keyboard. It was quite easy. I also owned a Blackberry Curve and have used Blackberry devices since my original 850 which looked more like a pager.I liked the look of the iPhone, but most of the people I know that have it don't really like the AT&T; service (at lease in the USA.) So the thought of a iPhone like device on the VerizonWireless network, which I've had great experience with, was welcomed with great anticipation. Unfortunately, the Storm turned out to be a dark storm.I'm not going to detail the lockups and problems with the camera starting when pressing keyboard letters. I know these are software problems and will be fixed as RIM releases software patches. But oh, the keyboard. If it had only had a touch screen like the iPod. I found typing on the iPod vs. the Storm to be like night and day. The iPod is smooth, you get the characters you want when you press the virtual keyboard on the screen.With the Storm, there's no predicting what letter will really appear when you press the keys. And after over a week of practice, I experienced almost no improvement. They keyboard just isn't implemented well. Plus, the keys to the far right and left of they keyboard, near the edge of the Storm, sometimes just won't even register they key press unless you press quite hard. I kept debating, how long should I keep it. But after a week, when spending almost 10 minutes typing an e-mail that could easily have been typed on the Curve in less than a minute, sealed the deal. It was time for the Storm to go back.I will agree with most of the comments in the other reviews. If your need is for multimedia or web browsing, the Storm is a good choice. If you need to type information or e-mails, it is not going to be a good fit. And although Verizon Wireless in my opinion is the better wireless service, if you must get a device, I'd really suggest you consider the iPhone. It will do what the Storm does better than the Storm, and with its superior keyboard, it even does e-mail better than the Storm.",1539,0 +1540,"Claims to give approx 40% charge, but only 30% in reality + +I purchased this because I was suckered into its portability and beauty, but essentially, we all want it to do what it claims to.

It's ruggedized, water- and dust-resistant, yet is pleasant to use.I've sorted my various comments on this phone into numbered sections below:Package Contents:The package includes the phone, a manual each for English and Spanish, an AC wall charger (a two-prong CEE 7/16 Europlug, supports 120-240 volts and 50-60 Hz, also comes with a Europlug-to-US-plug adapter in the shipping box), and micro-USB stereo headphones with a built-in microphone (for phone use) and an integrated antenna for the phone's FM radio function.Data/Charging Connections:The phone can charge with any standard microUSB power source. I have connected it to my PC, a different brand USB charger, and the phone's included charger and all of them were able to charge it without complaint. Please note that the trim around the charging port on the phone is such that standard-thickness microUSB plugs may have some difficulty fitting. The included charger has a permanently-attached microUSB plug with much thinner trim so it fits properly. A standard-thickness microUSB cord I had lying around the house was able to fit for charging and data-transfer, but it didn't seem as securely attached as the thin-trim one. Using the Samsung Kies software (downloadable from their website) and the standard-thickness microUSB cable, I was able to connect the phone to my computer, charge the battery, and synchronize contacts.There is no need to buy the special ""Samsung Data Cable"" listed at the time of this writing under the ""Frequently Bought Together"" section for this phone. That cable is not microUSB and will not connect to any port on this phone. That cable seems to be for older, non-microUSB Samsung phones and is not needed for this phone.To use the microUSB port one needs to open a small, gasketed flap on the side of the phone. Thus, the phone is not dust- or water-resistant while plugged in.Call Quality/ReceptionCall quality on T-Mobile in the US is quite good. The built-in earpiece in the phone produces crisp, clear sound. The microphone is also good (somewhat better than other mobile phones I've used), but is not on-par with landline phones. Considering that the microphone is water-resistant, this is is not a major problem.Reception in the Phoenix and Tucson (Arizona, USA) metropolitan areas on T-Mobile is excellent and comparable to other phones. There are a few dead spots on the interstate between the two cities, but this is also the case with other major networks like Sprint and Verizon and other model phones. Outside my apartment in Chandler (suburb of Phoenix), the phone displays ""full bars"" of service. Inside, it is about half of the outside coverage, depending on which room I'm in. Call quality in either case is the same.The phone supports four GSM bands: 900/1800 MHz (used in much of the world) and 850/1900 MHz (used in the US and Canada), and so can be used anywhere in the world that has GSM service for voice, SMS, EDGE, and GPRS. Additionally, the phone supports UMTS 900/2100 MHz for faster 3G data speeds. If my understanding of frequency allocations is correct, 900/2100 MHz UTMS service is not available in North America and nearly all of South America and so this phone is not capable of 3G data speeds in these areas.I'll be moving to Switzerland in the next few weeks and will update the review accordingly to see if UMTS service is available there. (It is! See update #1 at the bottom.)Battery Life:Battery life seems excellent, going several days of light-to-medium usage between charges. The phone comes with a 1300mAh battery.User Interface:The rubberized, water-resistant keypad is easy to use. There is a very slight raised dot on the ""5"" key to help identify it by touch, but it is subtle. Other than the keypad (which includes the directional button for navigating the interface), there are three external buttons: the two-button rocker switch (used for turning the volume up and down and for zooming with the built-in camera) and the LED flashlight button. The flashlight button is not affected by the ""keypad lock"" option in software, and so may turn on while in one's pocket (this has happened several times to me, though I usually catch it before it drains more than one bar from the battery).The top of the phone has the LED flashlight and a built-in loop for connecting the phone to a strap or other restraint (nice touch!). The loop also extends to the back of the phone, which has the camera (no flash for the camera), the speaker (for speakerphone, ringing, etc.), and the locked door for the battery compartment/SIM card/microSD card. When viewing the front of the phone, the flashlight power switch is on the top of the right edge of the phone, while the volume rocker switch is on the top of the left edge.The display can appear somewhat dim in bright sunlight, and is completely unreadable in sunlight if one is wearing sunglasses (tested with non-polarized sunglasses). The screen is perfectly readable indoors or at night. The brightness control is entirely manual: it will not auto-dim indoors, or automatically brighten outdoors like some other phones. There are options to adjust the time the backlight of the keypad and screen stays on. The menu system is usually quite good, but there are some quirks: the Bluetooth settings is listed under the ""Apps"" menu, while the GPS feature is under ""Settings/Phone"".The ""Apps"" menu can have items added based on your carrier and SIM card. For example, my Orange Switzerland SIM card adds an ""Orange"" App to the menu, which includes things like information about sports, finance, etc. while my T-Mobile USA SIM does not.The very top of the main menu shows the signal meter, EDGE/UMTS status, and indicators for Bluetooth (enabled/disabled/transferring data), microSD (indicates whether the card is present and flashes when accessing the card), current sound profile (Normal, Silent, etc.), a battery meter, and the clock (hours/minutes only; seconds are not displayed). The remaining portion of the main menu can be customized in various ways. It comes by default with the ""Smart home"" enabled (which includes options for text messaging, contacts, displaying the calendar, etc. on the main menu), though one can switch to one of several simple clock displays if one wishes.Language/Localization:The phone supports numerous languages, including German, English, Italian, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Turkish, Dutch, and several other languages I do not recognize (each of the languages is displayed in that language). As the phone seems to be made for the European market, the English text has a distinctly British feel (with text such as ""Synchronise"" rather than the US spelling of ""Synchronize"", along with ""Organiser"" instead of ""Organizer""). There is no option to use a localized dialect of a language (that is, there is no US English option).The date format can be set to several options: DD/MM/YYYY (Europe), MM/DD/YYYY (US), YYYY/DD/MM, YYYY/MM/DD. It can display the time in 12- or 24-hour modes. There is the option of automatically setting the date, time, and time zone from the network; doing so also respects your date/time display preferences. One odd language quirk: The ""Downloads"" option on the main menu always displays its contents in Spanish, regardless of the chosen language (I've tried both English and German).Due to the various formatting of phone numbers used worldwide, the phone does not attempt to display phone numbers (either dialed directly or when stored in the contact list) in any particular style. For example, if one wished to dial toll-free directory assistance in the US, US-specific phones would display ""1-800-555-1212"". This phone simply displays the numbers as ""18005551212"" with no formatting.Navigation:The phone has a built-in GPS receiver which can, after acquiring satellites, display your latitude, longitude (both in DDD.DDDDD format), and altitude. The altitude is only displayed in meters, and there is no option for displaying it in feet if one wishes. It takes about two minutes to acquire satellite signal and acquire a position fix while outside with a clear view of the sky. It does not appear that the phone caches GPS data between uses (presumably it completely powers off the GPS receiver when not in use), as if one gets a fix, closes the GPS application, and immediately re-opens it, the phone still needs to go through the time-consuming acquisition process again. Unless one has a map with detailed latitude/longitude grid squares, the GPS receiver is useless for navigation. It does not allow one to enter waypoints or coordinates as a destination, but simply displays its own current location. The phone supports J2ME (Java Micro Edition, for mobile devices) applications and there are several fairly barebones navigation applications available for J2ME-enabled phones, but they don't compare to standalone GPS receivers or smartphones in terms of functionality.There is an included Google Maps application (as well as Facebook and Twitter), but this requires use of data services which I do not have on my T-Mobile subscription, so I have not yet tested them.The phone also has an application for accessing the built-in magnetic compass. After a simple calibration procedure (turn the phone as depicted on the screen), the compass is reasonably accurate. However, it is extremely basic and not really suitable for serious navigation.Bluetooth:Bluetooth connections are easy to set up, and I was able to transfer 144 name cards and several digital photos to and from my other mobile phone in about two minutes. Due to the lack of a data plan on my carrier, I have not yet tested the phone as a data modem. Transferring lots of photos to/from the phone is relatively slow, as the phone does not support the latest higher-speed Bluetooth standards. If you don't mind waiting, it's perfectly functional.Text Entry/Messaging:In addition to regular text entry, the phone also supports T9 predictive text entry which can make text messaging faster. Not all text entry fields support T9: composing an SMS message does, but entering names into the contact list does not.The phone can store 1300 SMS messages on internal memory. My T-Mobile SIM can only hold 30. It does not appear that one can store text messages on the microSD card.microSD Storage:I installed a Kingston 8GB microSD card in the phone (it fits under the battery, next to the SIM card, rather than in a slot on the side of the phone). After being formatted by the phone, I am able to access the card as expected (saving photos, sound, etc.)From the box, most of the phone's internal memory is filled with the included ringtones, images, themes, etc. I highly recommend using a microSD card.Multimedia:The phone has a simple MP3 player, which works as expected. It's not really a substitute for a proper music player. The phone can play MP3 ringtones. The built-in 2MP camera is ok, but not great. There's no flash for the camera.Interestingly enough, the phone has a built-in FM radio. The antenna is built into the included microUSB stereo headphones/microphone cable, and so the radio is useless if one doesn't have the original headphones (which are not bad). It can auto-scan for active frequencies, so one doesn't have to scan through static. It can also record audio from the FM radio to a sound file on the phone's internal memory or microSD card. If the station broadcasts additional data (e.g. station name, artist, song name, etc.) on a sub-channel, the phone will display this information.Data:The phone has a basic web browser and other data functions. It's no replacement for a smartphone or computer. I would not recommend using this phone for data-intensive functions as you're likely to be disappointed.Conclusion:This phone is only slightly larger than most phones and is built much more ruggedly. It's reasonably priced for an unlocked, unbranded quad-band phone, and appearance-wise it looks nice (it doesn't look as ""chunky"" as other ruggedized phones).It's a refreshing change from feature-rich yet fragile smartphones with a one-day battery life. It won't win any beauty or feature contests, and there's a few minor quirks as noted above, but this is a solid, everyday phone.==========Update #1: August 27, 2011: Greetings from Switzerland! As expected, this phone works great on the various Swiss networks (I've used it on Orange and Sunrise, and it works on both their GSM and UMTS/3G networks without problems. It's a shame that the phone won't work on UMTS frequencies in the US.). Call quality is good on either network, and battery life is in the ""more than one week"" range (though I habitually charge my phone when it reaches about 1/3rd charge, just so I'm never stuck with a dead battery).As a test, I immersed the phone in a sink filled with water for several minutes, and the phone worked as normal (though it did bubble ominously for a short while; this is normal, and is just air bubbles between the waterproof inside and the outer shell escaping). Similarly, I've made calls in the rain without any problems.The built in camera is not bad for a phone camera. Nothing to write home about, but I'm satisfied.My requirements for a phone are simple: place and receive calls, send and receive the occasional text message, and occasionally use the camera when I don't want to carry my ""Look at me! I'm a tourist!"" Nikon DSLR (or when it's raining out). I don't browse the internet, check my email, or do anything like that with my phone. For these purposes, I've been quite satisfied with this phone.==========Update #2: May 14, 2013: As part of a recent university-sponsored research expedition, I traveled to the desert of Oman to search for meteorites. Naturally, I took my phone with me. As expected, the phone was completely resistant to the rather extreme environment: days were hot and dusty with kilometers of foot searches (the phone was in my pocket) and car searches (the phone was in the cupholder, bouncing around), nights were cool with moisture condensing on exposed surfaces (we slept outside and the phone was exposed to the open air at night and was completely soaked with dew in the morning), high winds and dust storms, etc. The only improvements I'd like to see is some sort of inductive charging so one doesn't need to open the sealed charging port in order to charge the phone -- I had to charge the phone in the vehicle's glove compartment to minimize exposure to dust while charging -- and support for higher-current charging. The phone only charges at 500mA, so it can take several hours to fully charge the battery. If it could charge at 1A or 2A it would dramatically speed up the charging process.It's had no problem charging off of both the official Samsung wall charger, third-party (both wall-socket and car chargers), and improvised 5V DC power supplies I cobbled together in the lab (some capacitors and a 7805 linear regulator or a switch-mode regulator with the associated external components work well) when I let the battery run down by mistake.The phone also continues to work well in Switzerland, both in my lab and outdoors. It has survived (brief) splashes of liquid nitrogen (about -200C/-320F) in the lab and longer-term exposure to -10C to -20C temperatures outside. Even after several years of fairly heavy use the phone appears to be in good shape: there are a few scuffs around the outside of the phone, a few scratches on the screen (though less than expected. None affect the visibility of the screen.), and the silver coating on the rim of the directional pad button is beginning to wear off, exposing a copper-colored material underneath (though it requires a close look to see). The battery still holds a charge for over a week on UMTS/3G, with an extra day or two if the UMTS/3G radio is disabled and one only uses GSM. The seals are still intact and the number keys have not worn off. It's definitely not in ""like new"" condition anymore, but I'd definitely rank it as ""good or better"" condition.Conclusion: this is one rugged phone and has held up well to some punishing service over the years. I highly recommend it.",1544,0 +1545,"Great Protection + +I love this case. It clips on real easy and it feels great to the touch.

They had a similar deal as Amazon but I got free financing for 6mos. with VM. Now, the phone is well worth the $200-250 price. I upgraded from a LG slider 3G phone and I wish I had switched earlier. For those not familiar with VM its the best deal around, now that they have decent 4G phones. The phone itself is thin and sleek. It is very similar to the HTC One which is their flagship phone. It does not have the aluminum body but the back is the anti-slip rubber compound which feels nice in your hand. The screen is large enough and is bright. If you want a larger screen buy a tablet.

This served as a great headset, although not exactly for what I had in mind.Pros:As a headset - this is quite nice, has great sound quality, all the controls you could need are conveniently located on the 'necklace'. You can link multiple devices via bluetooth, but only one phone that you can actually connect to for a call. I have 2 phones, so I end up being able to use the other only as an MP3 player with this. For everyday wear, it is very comfortable, and even easy to forget you have it around your neck. o far has shown great reslience to moisture and sweat (and I sweat a lot!)Cons:The fact that it can't pair fully with my 2 phones is a bit annoying. But even more annoying is the fact that when running on a trail, or after some long distance running, the 'necklace' starts to hurt my collarbone - it is somewhat heavy, and keeps bobbing up and down, very noticeably on trail running. I can resolve this if I wear a polo T-shirt, and tuck this under the collar. But I'm not so sure I want heavy trail running wearing a polo T. If there was some mechanism of clipping this to your T-shirt to prevent it from jumping up and down and repeatedly striking your collarbone, it would get 5 stars.",1552,0 +1553,"Expect a hangover after marketing glow wears off + +UPDATE: after six months of use people constantly ask me to quit using this. Double checked the software update for Jawbone. It's up to date. This thing is a piece of junk. Lowered the rating to one star, because zero stars is not an option.This thing is sexy. The product description makes you drool and the flashy website makes you feel you'll own a piece of Army's high tech device. Expect to be disappointed. The Noise Assassin simply does not work. It failed a simple test. I recorded a 45 second message, with pauses using calm voice, to my voice-mail while walking in windy weather (10 MPH) with passing noise of a truck passing, two cars (including Prius), and some light construction voice. None of the noise was blocked off and voice was barely heard. (No, this feature is not disabled in the settings). The upgrade of firmware via the website worked, but that disabled headset's ability to play music. This required a call to tech support that resolved the issue by providing instructions on how to do a soft reset of the device, but not before collecting more personal information than I cared to share. The TapTap no longer works to hang-up the call after the update. The fit in the ear is OK after trying various cup sizes - the headpiece will fly out of your ear if you make a sudden movement.

Bit light on the bass but good quality for a wireless speaker in this size. So good on that front.However, it lacks other features. First of all, being a ""bluetooth 4.0"" low-energy device hasn't really been productive, because it cuts down on the range. Even though they claim 35feet, it'll only be good upto 15 feet. (tested with iphone 5).Secondly, the battery meter that shows up on iphones is completely useless - the reason being its unreliable. it'll either shown 100% or 50% fixed for most of the time, and then suddenyl drop to 0%.

Their response was ""Kindly please be advised that overcharging will affect lifespan of battery, so we suggest you unplug the devices when it is fully charged"". So I either get up in the middle of the night to unplug the devices, or have bad dreams about my devices being damaged... I'm returning it. Back to the outlet strip and Apple chargers.

I am currently using a Tech Armor Ballistic Glass screen protector and it works just fine.The outer bumper can be swapped out with different colors. The red is pretty sweet though. Maybe ill get a white one at some point to try it out.Another huge PRO is the fact that it has built in buttons instead of just raised rubber buttons. They feel solid, not hard to press and click when you press them.Con'sThe price in my opinion is a bit steep for what it is. I have no doubt in my mind that Spigen makes these for just a few bucks. Still a darn nice case though.I bought this on amazon and was shipped directly from Spigen. Took almost 3 weeks to arrive. Yes I said 3 weeks. What the heck is that about? I kept emailing Spigen customer care and a gentleman named Avery kept assuring me that the case was going to ship soon or had shipped every few days until one day it actually did ship. <---- This means its a good product but the customer service is pretty lousy in my opinion. No effort was made to compensate me for the extremely long wait other than Avery offering me a refund which I denied because I wanted the darn case.

Unfortunately, the case opening is just a bit too small in height when viewed from the side for at least 2 of my other micro USB cables to fit. Other than this, good case, well designed and solid.For those looking at the Photon, I really like the phone, but battery life is typically short.

First, with the headset on and my phone (S4 active) in the cycling jersey pocket, the bluetooth signal dropped out as soon as I went out the door. Back inside, the signal came back. ??? On the bike the signal was constantly in and out. It seemed better if I held my phone in my hand, but that is kinda inconvenient while cycling. I might have been able to get past this issue by mounting the phone on the bars or somewhere else on the bike (no idea why pocket on my back wouldn't work), but the real deal breaker, at least for me, was the wind noise. At anything over 10 mph, the wind noise the earbuds let in just drowned out the sound.That I didn't understand either,as they fit the ear canal tightly.

I've found most of the ones I've used to be very good, and I've used my old Logitec Mobile Freedom headset for close to five years and I've always found it to work great. My requirements are the basics: good sound quality, comfort, and cutting down wind/background noise.I could not be happier with the Plantronics Voyager Pro. It does cost a bit more than some others, but you get what you pay for. This things has very good sound quality on both ends, all but eliminates wind noise when driving, even with the windows open, and it remains comfortable. I've had it on my head for the bulk of a day while on conference calls, and hardly noticed it was there.So....what's in the box?* The Voyager Pro headset* Three sizes of soft gel eartips* Two foam eartip covers* AC Charger* User GuideSetup of the Voyager Pro is typical of a headset. It charges quickly, usable within a half hour or so and fully charged in 90 minutes. It pairs easily with phones. Just turn the headset on and it goes into pairing mode. It remains in pairing mode for 10 minutes.The microphone is a little larger than most other headsets, but not a huge deal. The dual microphones with excellent sound quality more than make up for that.Controls are simple to use:* Volume button on the top of the earpiece: press the front (+) to increase volume and rear (-) to lower it. Or press both + and - to mute, and you get a voice prompt of ""Mute On""!* A mini USB port is located on the earpiece bottom for charging.* The 'Call Control' button is located on the center of the earpiece. this button does everything from answer/end calls, transfer between the headset and phone, decline a call, redial, voice-activated redial, or even check if the device is powered on.I found that this product holds a charge nicely. I used about 5 hours of talk time in a 10 hour period and still left the device on all night and it was fine this morning, and I used it for another hour or two today.Of course lots of things impact your talk time and even your standby time.I pair this device with my Motorola Razr V3 as well as a Blackberry Curve 8310 and have tried it on a Pantech Matrix C740 too. No issues pairing and functioning.So, OK - lots of products have these features so why pay more for the Voyager Pro. If you use a headset infrequently, perhaps just to chat briefly with a friend and are mostly indoors, you probably will be happy with a less expensive product. However, if you are in the car a lot, with a good deal of background noise, especially road/wind noise, the performance of this unit in that respect alone makes it a consideration for purchase.

We have a Nokia E5, but when compared to that, this phone's keyboard is far better and the phone itself is very sturdy and gives a good feeling when holding to your ears (you might have noticed that some phones really don't feel well near the ears).We have an Android touchphone too.

I recently tested this charger with a slim case on my Nexus 4 and it charged from 24% to 100% in under 3 hours.Although I have no case yet on the Nexus 4, I did place several pieces of thick card stock between it and this charger and it continues to charge the Nexus 4. By all indications, if you have a slim case on the Nexus 4, this charger will work. The blue LED is lit when the phone is charging and goes off when charge is complete. I found the charger to be intuitive in use and so far I have not had any issue of the Nexus 4 sliding due to the incline.Once I get a case, I will update my review.

I will return back to this company 4 future purchaces. I'm a Happy Camper, Thank U.",1593,0 +1594,"Good phone and features for price + +Pros:Overall I am pleased with this product and the value. The phone is very reasonably priced for what it can do and offer. It has good clear sound when conversing and works well as a phone. The speakerphone is understandable and has good volume control. The touch screen is very responsive, but does take some getting used to. A person is definitely not going to be a speed dialer using it but it can be mastered even with one hand, if you are patient. The screen is a viewable VGA resolution and even though small it is very readable, even with my OLD eyes.It has many great ""features"" that makes this phone a useful tool. The main feature that attacked me to this phone was the fact that it was WiFi capable. Very few feature phones had WiFi. I wanted to have a means to check my emails throughout the day when I was away from home and not need to carry a laptop all the time. (And I refuse to pay the extra expense of data fees.) Once you learn how to use these extra features effectively it can be a great device to have. The Google map App is great and I like having that to use since I do not have a GPS in my car. The camera, calendar, calculator, voice recorder and other tools are fairly intuitive and useful.Cons:Unfortunately the manual does not cover all of the feature nuances a person needs to know, so it has taken me about two months to find them on my own. The manual explains the obvious functions and then has nothing on the invisible areas that help keep your systems cleaned-up and working. The Widgets are worthless because even though they look nice, they use too much on-phone memory and I have found no way to turn them off once turned on. And you don't find that out until you are forced to shut down all Apps due to insufficient memory.Using the WiFi is great but it is at times frustrating that even though the WiFi symbol indicates a signal and you have checked the access of the device is open, you may still not have a good connection and it states ""DNS Failed"".The built-in web browser works very well but you better not browse a large data content web page. The phone will not have enough memory and force you to shut down the open Apps, including the browser.One of the biggest drawback is that you can only access the optional memory card from the computer cable link. You cannot transfer, edit, or modify any of the in-phone memory locations, especially the contacts listing. The only way to transfer contacts from an old phone were through the SIM card, and doing that looses ALL of the ""personal"" information of each contact. (SIM cards will only hold name and phone numbers.) So you end up re-entering email addresses, and etc., etc.Another drawback is the limited amount of on-phone memory available for the use of Widgets, web browser, and email. Too often I am finding myself stalled when wanting to hold more than twenty moderate sized emails on my phone, or I web browse to a site that has a lot of pictures on it. Then I see a message stating ""Not enough memory, you must close some applications"". Then it shows a screen to allow you to turn off some of the open Apps only to find it will not respond. The only thing left to do is to select the ""Close All Apps"" and then start all over. It took me quite a while to figure out why I kept getting this message when all I had open was email and all previous emails deleted. When you delete emails they are not removed from the phone memory! After much more investigating I find they are moved to a deleted file folder, which you cannot access from you email App.Installing the additional memory card does not allow you to offload that needed extra operational capacity to the memory card. Why do I need a 16GB memory card if it will not help the operational capability of the phone's features?Conclude:Now don't get me wrong, overall this is a great phone. I know you are saying ""WHAT?"". Yes it is. It has a lot of nice features and when they work, they work well. The problem is that it was not very well thought out for use of multiple features at one time. Allowing the expansion memory card to take some of that capability would have been the right idea.So I have had to learn to make-do with what I can use of the features (one-at-a-time and hope you do not find a big loaded website).The instruction booklet is terribly insufficient on how to [continue] using the features effectively. It does not explain how to completely erase deleted emails. It does not tell you where to find them to erase them. There are just so many other things you need to know to keep the ""Features"" working for you. I still have not found how to access a draft email I created so I can send it to someone, even though I can look in memory and see it is still there.

This is using no 3G data, just phone standby and WiFi data, screen on 'auto' brightness.-It's very easy to root this phone using the 'Framaroot' app-Call quality & volume is decent but not spectacular-2 SIM cards work great: when you add a SIM card, upon booting up, the phone asks you what to call it. Then when a call comes in, there is a little banner that tells you which SIM the call is coming in on, with the label and different color for each SIMBad:-The LED for the rear camera is very wimpy: don't expect to take any photos in the dark-The screen's vertical viewing angle is from about straight on to about 45deg down. If you are holding the phone sideways to play a game (like Angry Birds), you need to tilt it a little ways to one side to get the best image.-MicroSD card is not hot-swap: you must remove the battery to remove the cardMisc:-The micro USB charging port is at the top of the phone which is a little odd-The illumination for soft keys at the bottom times out very quickly-My phone came with a wall block, usb charging/data cable, headphones, slim TPU case, and screen protector-You can tell this phone doesn't have a lot of RAM because it occasionally bogs down in Chrome with several tabs open: this isn't a negative because it's clearly stated.

Plus, the pink one did not have the opening on the lower left side for easy access to my memory card. Design flaw?

To put the battery in properly, line the arrow on the battery up with the prongs and slide it upward into the prongs. It's very easy. If the battery is just jammed in, it won't fit and if it's forced, yes, the prongs probably will bend or break. The sturdy wall plug folds neatly into the charger when it's not in use.When the battery is charging, a bar at the bottom glows red (actually hot pink), and turns blue when charging is complete. Charging an empty battery does take quite a few hours (I leave it to charge overnight), so patience is necessary.I am very happy with this purchase, which has worked very well for me for over a year now and was a good value with free shipping included.",1601,0 +1602,"Does not fit Atrix 2 + +I ordered 3 of these so I could have one bed-side, one at the office, and one at my desk at home.

The USB jack on the dock is flipped over compared to the phone (180 degrees out of phase).Further on-line research reveales that Motorola does not offer a 'Standard dock' for the Atrix 2.

I would not recommend this to a friend.",1603,1 +1604,"Fits the white iPhone + +I just wanted to pop in and note that this case is one of the few ones that does fit the white iPhone 4. For those who aren't aware, the white iPhone 4 is a few mm thicker than the black one. This, needless to say, causes problems when you try to shoehorn the white iPhone into a standard iPhone 4 case.As for the product, I'm pretty happy with it. It has a nice snug fit. The apple logo is visible and appears to be centered at the point where the hole is cut out. All the usual buttons and ports are easily accessible. My wife has a bad case of butterfingeritis (don't tell her I said that). Despite several drops, the phone and case are both in tact.The only thing I didn't like about this product is the accompanying screen protector. It has anti-glare protection, which is nice but for some reason it makes the screen much more sensitive to touch. Whenever the phone brushes up against your cheek, it ends up pushing all the buttons. This started to bother us to the point where we decided to just remove the protector altogether. Another side effect of the anti-glare coating is that it makes the screen colors look psychedelic, which some people might dig. I think that they should simply lower the price and get rid of the screen protector but it doesn't really bother me that much.happy phone dropping!",1604,0 +1605,"""Nice HTC One!"" + +I love this case! On purpose I chose to get the frosted/clear case, because I didn't want to cover up the beauty that is, HTC One!. The makers of this case knew exactly what they were doing when they made this. A high level of design with as much protection as possible. "Nailed it!". All joking aside, this case is fantastic, it adds virtually no extra bulk to the phone, allows the beauty of the phone to show through, and gives that level of comfort knowing it will be protected from mild to moderate drops. I have only ever used TPU cases, and while I'm not perfect and have my fair share of drops, TPU has always saved me from scratches and unsightly blemishes. I HIGHLY recommend this case to anyone who wants to protect their HTC One but give the illusion that there is no case hiding it from the world.The only downside is the design of the actual phone as it relates to this case. When I am handling the phone, sight unseen so to speak, it's hard to distinguish between the power button and the charging port. Both of the cut-outs are so closely mirrored in their respective corners that it's hard to tell if my finger is in the charge port or the power button "cut-out". In dark settings, I've found out I'm trying to turn the phone on with the charge port and can't figure out why it won't work. Annoying to say the least, but certainly does not take away from what the case manages to do, and that is keep relevant the main reason you bought the phone. At $10 or less, this is a fantastic case, I recommend it to everyone with the HTC One, at least to have in your arsenal of accessories so you can show it off to the ladies.

For all the people reporting problems about ""not loud enough ringers"" there is an option in ""settings/ sounds & alerts/ Increasing Ring"" which makes the ringer loud enough.

The sound quality, imo, was superior to my set of Motorola S305's Motorola Black MOTOROKR S305 Wireless Stereo Headphones in Retail Packaging for Apple iPhone 3G 3GS iPhone 4 and HTC Desire, HD Mini, HD2, Tattoo, Touch, Touch Diamond, Touch Pro2, Wildfire Phone Models which had very little bass and often sounded tinny.The performance pros:The sound quality was better than I expected considering the low cost. Strong detail to my ear, sufficient bass, excellent volume, and extended playing time on a charge.The performance cons: You'll see it mentioned in many of the reviews that the neck band is tight. This is absolutely true. They seem designed for a very small head, and will pull on your ears causing discomfort. I wore them approximately 4-5 days a week, sometimes for 6 hours at a stretch while at work, for over 3 months and there was never any give in the neck band--but it still wasn't a deal breaker.While the skip back and skip forward buttons on the Motorola also offered seeking if held down, the buttons on the Arctic Sound do not. No seeking, just skip, despite the A2DP profile.At first, the range was just great. I could get 30 feet of distance before drop-outs (paired with my Cowon J3COWON J3 16 GB Portable Media Player (Black). In the last month, though, that completely changed. The range became so terrible that there was literally only one pocket I could keep my mp3 player in without losing the signal completely or having the music stutter and drop out. The transmitter is on the right ear cup, and I had to keep the mp3 player in my right pants pocket. In any other pocket, pants or shirt, the simple movement of my head would cause the interference. Multiple attempts at re-pairing, rebooting, etc would not solve the problem.You really do get a lot of play on a single charge, perhaps 20 hours (compared to a maximum of 6 hours on the aforementioned Motorolas), but once the charge begins to wear down, the Arctics will continually beep very loudly in your ear every 20-30 seconds. Even though you still have more than 1 hour of playing time left, it is now impossible to listen to music until you recharge them.The BIG con:Because the neck band is so tight, there will be some bending involved when trying to fit them over your ears and behind your neck. Two days ago, the neck band snapped. Being entirely aware of the tightness and rigidity of the plastic, I was always very cautious in my use, but it happened anyway. They still work, but a combination of Super Glue, Gorilla tape, and electrical tape still wouldn't put them back together due to the curvature and narrowness of the piece.I immediately contacted the seller, Platinum Micro, telling them what happened and asking for an exchange. They replied promptly stating that the warranty is only for 30 days and I had exceeded that period. There would be no exchanges or refunds. So they don't stand behind their product. A 30 day warranty is essentially nonsense. Most manufacturers can be fairly assured that their product will last at least that long so they lose nothing by making this meaningless gesture. Additionally, if you're selling on Amazon, a site with a fantastic reputation and one which is feedback and customer review based, it would behoove a seller to make their customers happy.

The cut out for the top features, like the speaker, camera and sensor, is a big gaping hole. It's not very aesthetically pleasing.3). Due to the thickness of the glass screen protector, the home button is now slightly recessed below the surface.I should point out that Tech Armor's glass is perfectly sized, the cutout is minimal by comparison, and they thought ahead to include multiple colors of adhesive gel-like home button covers, and come in at nearly half the price! What the heck, TechPro? I've contacted Tech Armor, and they are working on producing a ballistics glass screen protector for the GN3.

Windows Phone 7.5 (Mango) is a great OS as it is, and will get even better with the upgrade to 7.8. This phone is still beautiful and turning heads.

I did quite a bit of research on cases for my new Motorola RAZR HD smart phone before finally purchasing this OtterBox Defender (77-20134) in black. During my research, I went to the OtterBox website as well as YouTube. I found a pretty good YouTube video (for the RAZR version, not the RAZR HD) and figured this case had everything I was looking for, so why not give it a try?I'm fortunate enough to have the use of this phone thru my employer and when it was originally purchased earlier this month, I also received a silicone case and a screen protector, as well as a car charger (all chosen by our IT person). In hindsight, I wish I could have chosen my own accessories because I'm very picky. The case that was originally purchased for me was quite firm and not really that bad, but it was high gloss and showed every single finger print and smudge. Also, the way it fit caused my screen protector to start coming away and bubble at the top. The screen protector also had a blemish that would undoubtedly annoy me to no end.The product description claims this case is triple protection, but I can't decide if it's triple or quadruple. When you unpack it from the box, you need to first remove the holster and put it to the side. Then, remove the outer soft, flexible silicone layer and put it to the side. You're then left with a black plastic case that comes apart when you pry apart the seam on the side where they tell you to. Once the seam is separated, the case comes apart into two pieces(front and back). From this point, all you need to do is make sure your device is immaculate and dust free, make sure the front of the case (built in screen protector!!!) is immaculate and dust free, and then you put the front of your phone into the front portion of the case. Once you've verified that your screen is perfect and up to your cleanliness standards, you can then snap the back of the case on. Step 1 - case is on. At this point, your entire phone is inside the case, protected by a built-in clear screen protector. Once this is done, you should put the soft silicone case back on. This fits perfectly around the black case and just needs to be worked slowly until it's completely on. Step 2 - silicone case is on. The last step, if you choose to use it, is putting the phone into the holster. The phone fits any way you want into the holster. Front side first, back side first, upside down, right side up. Any way works. And the added bonus is that the holster clip actually rotates 360 degrees and LOCKS IN THE OPEN POSITION if you want and can be used as a stand! The You Tube reviewer was confused and thought this part of the case did not function properly, but really it does. If you want your phone to stand up in the ""landscape"" position, simply lock the holster clip in the open position and then place it on a flat surface. The holster clip opening should be facing UPWARD (in an upright ""V"" position"") in order to get your phone to stand freely in the landscape position. If you want your phone to stand upright in the ""portrait"" position, it doesn't work as well. It sits at more of a slant than upright, but is still helpful if you want to keep your phone at an angle vs. flat. I would think the landscape position is more desirable, anyway. Step 3 - holster is on.A few things to note:1) There are small silicone ""plugs"" built into the outer silicone layer that cover the headphone jack on top and the micro USB and HDMI ports on the left. These plugs fit perfectly when you want them to be pushed in and closed and are easy to open when you want to use one of those ports (to plug in headphones, charge your phone or use the HDMI port). These plugs are attached and part of the outer silicone case.2) This part might be a downside to some users, but not me. When you first put your phone into the hard inner case and snap it closed, it's not very easy to get back open. The instructions don't tell you how to get it back open and you'll find that you're hurting your fingers trying to pry it apart. I did need a small, flat head screwdriver and all I did was gently push the flat head into the four (I think) different slots on the sides of the case. I applied a little pressure at an angle and each slot popped open. But, I did need the screwdriver to do it. Someone who needs to get access SIM or memory cards would find this to be an inconvenience but for me, it's no bother. There is no removeable battery on this phone so I'll never need to get inside for that. And the SIM and memory cards are a non-issue as far as I'm concerned. Once the case is on I doubt I will ever be removing it.3) The outer silicone case completely covers the power and volume buttons on the right side, but so far I have not encountered any issues because of this. You might need to press the power button a little harder than normal, but for me this is no problem.All in all, this OtterBox Defender case is really great. I am so happy I bought it. I really thought it might be too costly at first, but now I have no regrets. It's a solid case, screen protector and optional holster all in one. It looks great and I feel that my phone is protected very, very well.If you're looking for an awesome case for your Motorola RAZR HD, look no further. I would buy this again in an instant and strongly recommend it! I will look to OtterBox first in the future for all of my device case needs.",1651,0 +1652,"Defective Screen & Digitizer Assembly + +Screen produces a white fog/fade-out/ring around its border. It seems to be getting thicker/wider and produces a tunnel vision effect.",1652,0 +1653,"Isn't practical, very poor usability and design, overall bad product + +I bought this headset to replace a 3 year old Motorola headset that had the plastic ear clip break. I use this with an IPhone 4S. Here are the things I really did not like about the Jawbone ERA:* The touch feature (tap the headset) just doesn't work that great. You have to really hit it to get the it to pick up, to the point you're hurting your ear drum from the pressure.* The only button on it tells you the battery life remaining when pressed. If you hold it down you will access Siri. Why wouldn't they make the most used function (activate Siri) the thing when the button is pressed? It's not a short hold either, 1-2 seconds until a beep occurs (not Siri's beep, more on that next). It says you can program it with a new app, but there is no way to change this functionality, only what happens when you HOLD the button. I'm constantly being told the battery life of the headset...completely useless information.* When you do hold the button and access Siri, you'll hear a SERIES of beeps, all of which is just the headset telling you that it has recognized the button being held down. Some 3 seconds later (not exaggerating) you will finally hear the Siri been come on and you can talk to Siri. If you're adding it up, that is 1-2 seconds of holding the button, and 3 more seconds for Siri to come up, for a total of 5 seconds until you can use Siri!* The power switch is very small, so you pretty much have to leave it on all the time. If you put it in your pocket, that means you're going to be pocket dialing and accessing Siri all the time (who knows what she's capable of!). And if you're thinking that you'll just shut it off in your pocket, then don't plan on answering a phone call with it. By the time you take it out of you pocket, find the little power switch (which takes fingernails to turn on), and get it to sync (which might not happen, read next section), you've missed the call.* If you turn the device off and turn it back on, it's a 50/50 chance it'll pair back up with you phone. Half the time, it doesn't pair up and I have to shake the thing (literally, you have to shake it back and forth 4 times to activate pairing) to get it to try to pair, which sometimes doesn't work but that might be the fault of the IPhone.* The main reason I bought the Jawbone ERA was because people said it had the best call quality. However, there have been a number of times where the audio was very broken. People on the other end don't have problems (which, going back and reading the reviews I read, this call quality for the OTHER person is what was so impressive).* Installing drivers on Windows - this is a stretch because there are a lot other factors involved, but as soon as I plugged this thing into my laptop and installed the drivers, my USB mouse and keyboard that was hooked up stopped and required me to reboot my computer. The software runs through a web browser and the first time using it I had a lot of issues where syncing would stop at 4% and wouldn't get past it. Eventually (couple days later) I tried again and it worked.I do not recommend this if you have an IPhone and like to use Siri. Actually, it's hard to recommend this to anyone. And just as a litmus test, here's what I got from the Motorola headset that made it 100% better: a call came in, I turned on the headset and it automatically picked up. There was one big button that when I hit it, it INSTANTLY activated Siri.I will be gluing my old headset back together to use over the Jawbone ERROR. Just wish I didn't throw away the packaging so I could return it!",1653,1 +1654,"updated review of - poor quality Blk Ringke Fusion Nex 5 + +I wanted to update as I finally got my Nexus 5 this week and tried this on for size. I may have been a bit hard on it as initially I was confused in looking at what was in the package: a clear template (resembling a screen protector meant to serve for: cut out a foto, design on paper, whatever to decorate back of clear case to individualize it) and what appeared to be poor craftsmanship of both blk bumper frame and clear back due to clear protective film (peel away) which somewhat overlapped the blk/clear border making it appear in a quick study that the clear plastic on back wasn't mesh within the blk frame of bumper which really looked cheap. Long and short of it, this wasnt the case and I made a snap judgment really not detailing enough as to why I thought is was worth only $4. However, I stand by my initial review of the blk plastic bumper being very cheaply crafted. The rubberized coating on blk bumper's plastic is so thin; it should have been coated more thickly to prevent slippage and give a semblance of being able to take a hit. In trying to make this as slender (as they probably wanted)they really messed up what might have been a really nice, affordable product-in addition to cheaping out on the blk bumper to an extreme and making it feel more thin plastic (not a good kind) than tough. The other big concern in addition to material on bumper is the very thin bezel on both L & R sides. This was the deal breaker for me finally as I felt, I paid for this, maybe it can be a 2nd case as back up. The glass surface of Nexus was just too close to these thin,low sizes of bumper. It does help that each of 4 corners are raised a bitif you set it on its back always. But the thinness of L&R sides wasn't comforting for me and I always set my phone glass down upon it and feel better. The positive, the clear backing seems well made and thick enough and is supposed to be anti-scratch-it also isn't slippery and can set it down and feel safe. Port cut outs are good, don't worry about fit, its snug but you don't have to wrestle with it to get it in or out and feel like youre gonna hurt your wonderful new phone. Finally, I know we all want to save, honest, I sure do but the adage ""you get what you pay for, rings in my ears."" Many are ok w/product here and no judgment...but its a new $350-400 phone, spend more than $8 to save a drop. The price keeps dropping for a reason...its only worth $6-8. I took the risk, the pic and name grabbed me. Bought it at $10 too. Its opened now and protective film taken off so definitely cant return but I wont be risking my Nexus in it. (Maybe sell or give away, I know I wont use it). I did buy the Cruzerlite too by the way and feel its a much better product. Its very protective, rubberized and the lip is 2x as thick when you set it face down as I like to. Its I feel very confident in its ability to protect my phone. I tried both side by side too so Im not trying to sell anyone on this particular brand. Ive also used Otterbox hybrid case on My 2010 HTC One, great protection, expensive but also bulky, rubber silicone heated up internals but dropping-no issue. I didnt like its bulk so I slowly removed ext hardshell, then the silicone as it aged and cared freely in pkt. I found over the yrs and new phones, spending a lot on accessories is a losing game. I love my tech gear tho' so I try to live in the middle: not to cheap, not too expensive (more minimalistic too). I hope this review reflects a balanced overview of this product for all.

It has a hardware based FM radio too!I found that tech support for the wireless providers don't currently have this phone in their database for compatibility information, so the tech specs are something you should keep in mind when thinking about service.The technical specs are a bit dubious listed above.. the phone is rated and supports GSM850, GSM1900, WCDMA Band V 850MHz, and WCDMA Band II 1900MHz according to the FCC information about it.The frequency allocations this phone runs on means it is perfect for worldly travel, but has problems within the US currently. AT&T; supports both GSM 2G and HSPA+ 3G on both 850 and 1900, however T-Mobile is just starting to modernize their equipment for the global bands (they used 1700 MHz for WCDMA HSPA, which is very foreign) by enabling HSPA service on the 1900 frequency.What all this means is that currently, T-Mobile offers lots of GSM EDGE 2G data everywhere on 1900 MHz, but not HSPA speeds unless you're lucky enough to live in a refarmed area. AT&T; doesn't have this problem.The backplate of the phone feels rubbery and solid, but the phone as a whole is surprisingly very light. The included onscreen keyboard really fails at spell checking anything, and the phone comes preloaded with GO Launcher EX, King Office, and some other apps that cannot be removed.

Their phone service is not worth the aggravation you will have to endure to activate, add minutes, etc.Waiting a very long time on hold to speak with a customer service or technical support rep. is typical. My latest dealing with the company concerned transferring a phone number and minutes after my son lost his tracfone. After more than an hour on hold, I finally got to a representative and was repeatedly put on hold ""for 3 minutes"" while the rep. consulted a supervisor and then ""another department"" about the issue. At last I was told that the department that would verify how many minutes were on the lost phone was unavailable and that it would be necessary for me to call back the following week (even though they would be operating the following day)--more than 2-1/2 hours absolutely wasted!The next call took about 1-1/2 hours on extended and ""3 minute"" hold before the representative could come to grips with the unbelievable situation that a teenager had lost his phone, and before the ""other department"" could reach a decision.I used a tracfone for a bit more than a year and suffered through a few instances of having to resolve minutes that did not load, or promotion codes that did not work. Eventually my limited need for a cell phone increased to the point where a conventional phone plan made more sense and provided a far better phone. My son inherited the tracfone for emergency purposes, but when it runs out of minutes we are done. Forget any potential cost savings: Tracfone is not worth the trouble!",1660,0 +1661,"Exactly as advertised! Works great! + +I bought this case not really expecting much. It arrived within 3 business days as they said it would. When I opened the package I was excited! This case has 2 parts to it: the black rubberized outer layer, and the white hard plastic inner layer which contains the kickstand. The case allows for full use of all the buttons and ports, both the micro usb and the headphone jack. It also does not cover up the microphones for when you use speaker phone. Both the headphone jack and micro usb port have a rubber like 'cap' that keeps any dust or debris out of them which is great! The kickstand seems pretty sturdy, but it is plastic so you can't step on that and expect it not to break haha. My phone feels really protected with this case. If you own a Samsung Galaxy S3, it feels very delicate like it can be snapped in half. Buyer Beware: This case will just about triple the thickness of your phone, so if you don't like having a bulky/thick phone, this case is not for you. But if you don't mind it, and would rather have your phone protected (short of spending $25+ for an Otterbox), then this case is for you.Note: I bought Arkon SM410 Universal Windshield with Dashboard and Vent Mount for Smartphones and PDAs - Mount - Bulk Packaging - Black and I was worried about it not fitting in it with the added thickness, but it did actually fit in it.",1661,0 +1662,"Worst looking protector ever + +This screen protector came highly recommended to me by a friend of mine.

I have had many other screen protectors on other Android phones and this one is just the worst one I have ever seen.

You can answer the phone without having to take the phone out of your wallet. you can keep 3 cards (I only use my DL and 2 credit cards). The cash space is a bit tight, but it can handle a few bills.

I'm not entirely sure how much actual protection it provides the phone, but it looks nice and adds a little cushion.Also, the ""Minisuit LCD Cleaner keychain"" was a promotional item that no longer comes with the case.

Buy This! + +I assume you are currently in the position I was a few weeks ago. After having my HTC Aria for over a year and dropping it numerous times, a drop onto a tile floor on the top right corner shattered my screen. While it still worked, I had small shards of glass coming off the screen and into my thumb, so I decided this needed to be fixed ASAP. After much research I bought this product and installed it myself. The whole process took around 90 min to 2 hours to complete. Had no issues on the install. Now that it is back together, it functions fine. However, the phone isn't exactly like it was with its original screen. I find this screen to have some bounce to it, like it isn't stuck in as well. The track ball area is slightly inset into the device now, but still useable. At night I can see the interior light beeming out through the seems. I can't complain though, it works and I'm not overly bothered by these downfalls. I hope the screen is durable, but I know aftermarket installs can be less strong. I did not buy any additional adheasive to put the phone back together, just used what was already in the phone. You will need a triwing screwdriver for this, please note this is NOT included in the screwdriver pack that amazon is suggesting you purchase with the screen.

It feels solid and hefty to me (11.8 pounds) but not too heavy to carry around. The handle is solid heavy duty plastic screwed into place on each side by two screws and fits my hand nicely.The wireless works fine but I find the sound better using the wired connection to my MP3 better. The wireless cuts out periodically.I love the sound on this boombox. It is clear and crisp even when I cranked the thing WAYYYY up. It has five speakers and sounds phenomenal for a stereo of its size.The remote comes with a CR2025 lithium coin battery included.I like that the unit comes with a rechargeable battery but do wish that the charge lasted longer than six hours. Of course, I can always keep it plugged in, which actually is probably what I will do most of the time. The rechargeable battery IS replaceable once it quits charging but the manual says it needs to be bought from TDK Life on Record. I tried to find one on their website but was unable to (for price).I like that there is a USB for charging. I do wish there was a USB port for input (flash drives, laptop, etc).I like having FM radio on the boombox and having four presets on the remote control.The unit comes with separate operator's manuals in different languages - English, Spanish, German, French I'm pretty sure about. But it also comes with what I think are Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Russian and maybe more?CONS:The remote for this unit is small and thin. I am quite sure I will be misplacing it soon unless I do something to prevent it. I think I'll put a velcro tab on the back of the boombox and one on the remote so that I can keep them together.I wish the cord/power brick wasn't so cumbersome for the boombox. It would have been nice to just have the power cord for this but maybe not enough room because of the five speakers. Or maybe it has something to do with the power for all those speakers (I am not an electrician).The handle is solid and does not move. Because of this, the dials and readouts underneath it are a little hard to get to/read.The knobs for power/volume control and for source/select control are a little stiff. I don't know whether they will loosen up after using a while but right now it's a little difficult to fine tune volume/station selection/etc. because of the stiffness.It takes a while to manually check out the radio stations using the select control dial. There is a seek button, however, on the remote, which goes quicker.The equalizer works OKAY but is rather weak on the Treble. Bass is a little better - can be upped some but not a huge amount.It is great having five speakers on this boombox but the two 5.25"" passive radiators are not covered, which seems very risky to me. Maybe it's for the effect since you can see them move when playing music.I wish there was an AM radio option on the unit. FM is included but not AM. I wouldn't think that would have been that much of an expense to add.Also, the boombox comes with a 3.5mm aux input so I can have a wired connection to my MP3 player, which I love. But just how much would it have cost to include aCables Unlimited AUD-1100-06 6 feet 3.5 MM Male to Male Stereo Cable? They are cheap and luckily I had one laying around. It would have made the boombox ready-to-use in all ways.MY RECOMMENDATIONS/COMMENTS:I don't think I would take this out in the woods camping or to a rowdy party. But if you want a super sounding stereo in your house/apartment that stays in one spot most of the time, this is the stereo for you.

This phone was seriously ahead of it's time. Taking the phone out of the box I immediately charged it as preferred. Within 30 minutes of using the phone afterwards, it shut itself off. Mind you this is a fully charged battery. I tried to turn it on, no success. Waited about 5 minutes, still no success. Eventually after repeatedly trying after a few more minutes I was able to get it to turn on. Alarmingly I saw a red haze around the screen that would not go away. It was as if it was burned into the LCD screen. I restarted the phone and then it was gone after reboot, it never came back. An hour later the phone starts to vibrate then turns itself back off. I try to power it back on and with no luck. I looked up this issue online and I was amazed to see how many people were having this same issue. It turns out that this was a common issue with the LG Nitro HD. Techs in the LG forums have posted that it was due to either faulty batteries or that they tend to overheat as well with contribution to the big dual core processor.LG asks that you update all the software. I updated the firmware as well as installed ICS 4.0 which made the phone run a lot smoother and seemed faster. I felt confident after running the phone for 2 hours without a glitch, until, it powered itself off again. So about all you can do when this happens is take the battery out and put it back in every time, which to me is a hassle. Also on a side note, this phone does get very hot. Uncomfortably hot in my opinion for a hand held device and that cannot be good for long time use. I adjusted various settings such as brightness to lower settings to lower battery consumption and still gets hot.I am not a hardcore user. I just use my phone for calls, texting, and streaming music. This would be an amazing phone if it didn't have those glitches. I do not suggest taking a chance on this phone and look to other brands/models. LG makes some great products but does not have the reputation for having the best support for their products as I have been a customer of theirs for many years. Thanks to Amazon's great return policy this phone will be returned.",1678,0 +1679,"Limited indoor range limits usefulness, needs better antenna + +I wanted to use a Sprint smart phone in a rural area so as to take advantage of a great data deal. My signal inside was non-existent. Outside it was rarely 1 bar (on a signal meter app on the phone, I saw -120 inside and -105 outside, lower numerically is better if you factor out the minus signs). I've fought cellular signal battles here for years due to elevation and trees. After some shopping, I found this amplifier setup, which works on the Sprint 1900 MHz frequency. Being skeptical of the small antennas that were supplied, I ordered a WILSON ELECTRONICS 301124 STAMPED YAGI ANTENNA from Amazon at the same time.Antennas are generally one of two types- either omnidirectional or directional. Omnidirectional antennas can receive a signal in a 360 degree radius, while directional antennas need to be pointed at a tower, but generally give better performance. It's like the difference between a general practitioner (GP) and a specialist. If your problem (signal) is not too bad, a GP can heal you. If it's more involved, you need to see a specialist. The supplied antennas were omnidirectional, and the Wilson Yagi antenna is directional. One nice thing is that everything here uses the standard ""N"" connector for antennas and amp, so you won't need any weird adapters like I had to do with my web amp. The supplied cables were listed as 5M (15') for inside and 15M (45') for outside. I didn't measure them, but they appeared to be those lengths.My setup for web connections already uses a dish antenna (about 15' up a pole) and cell amp on the 1900 frequency for Verizon that directly wires to a cell modem, so I was concerned about placing the outside antenna on the same pole on the same frequency. I did not see any negative effects from either the web connection (using speedtest.net) or this amplifier. Other considerations here are a repeater w/ omni antennas in my attic for an AT&T; cell phone and a wireless 802.11g/n network. Since the repeater and network are on other frequencies, they was not a factor here. This brings me to the reason for the 4 star rating for this product, the antennas.When I tested the unit with the supplied antennas (with the outside one on my pole), it was no better than what I had with no amp. When I placed the Wilson Yagi antenna on the pole, It was a night and day difference. However, this comes with a codicil due to the other small antenna. When I place the phone within about a foot of the inside antenna, I get great signal, like -79. When I move the phone away as little as 3 feet, the signal drops to -97. I also tried an old wireless network antenna that gave similar results- which was not bad since it was not designed for the 1900 MHz frequency. (I did not order an interior antenna but now realize I should have. This setup as-is may work if you have a decent amount of signal outside, but I would not count on having much coverage inside- I was shooting for one room, but see that won't work. I'm shopping for a better inside antenna and will update if I find one that works properly.There is a complete 1900 MHz amp package here on Amazon with a Yagi antenna and what appears to be a better inside antenna, but the price of it is higher than the components I found even with shipping. Being frugal, I found it better to buy what I needed from a couple of places.The transaction went well, I had the amp setup a couple of days after the Yagi antenna, which arrived about a week after I ordered both.UPDATEI have tried a Comtelco 18"" dual-band omni antenna as well as a dome ceiling mount omni antenna for indoor coverage. The Comtelco worked better than the included antenna, but not by much. The dome antenna was worthless. I have drawn the conclusion this amp is best suited for areas where you can use the phone within 24"" of the indoor antenna. This amp just does not have enough power to have sufficient range indoors.",1679,0 +1680,"Great, Strong, and compact Phone!

Good value.",1684,0 +1685,"Works perfect with HTC Incredible A/V plug + +I bought this specifically to use with HTC's A/V cable that plugs into the Droid Incredible. The AV cable plugs into the micro USB port on the phone and allows composite audio and video to be output. Because this blocks the only way to charge the phone, the AV cable has a port on the side to plug a charger in. But if you plug the normal charger in, you end up with a ""T"" looking arrangement that is a bit unwieldy.Enter this cable. This plugs into the side of the connector and then angles the cable to follow the AV cable, even to be zip tied together if desired. I spent a lot of time closely inspecting connectors to find the right one to fit the HTC AV cable and THIS is the one that works best.Note: On the Incredible, when plugged into the phone by itself, the cord goes up toward the volume buttons. You may want that, but if you want it to point down while the phone is vertical, you would want a left angle plug. I believe this is opposite of the Droid X.UPDATE 5/3/11: Just got an HTC Thunderbolt and it works great with this phone too. However, it bends the opposite way as it does on the incredible, so while the Incredible had the cord bend and go up toward the volume buttons, on the Thunderbolt it bends and goes toward the phone bottom (points down, as I think it does on the X).

Good Value. + +.Good features and function, full-speed charging for phones and many (not all) tablets.- - - Speed Matters - - -Sometimes you need to charge in a hurry. Even if a charger ""works with your device"" it may be painfully slow. Get one that will charge your devices at full speed (like the charger that came with your device).For starters, the ""Amps"" need to be high enough. That's usually 1 Amp for smartphones, about 2 Amps for large tablets. (A higher amp charger is always OK.) Some chargers are only 1/2 Amp (500mA).Problem is, Apple devices use their own rules to decide charging speed. A designed-for-Apple charger may be slow to charge non-Apple devices, and vice versa, even if its Amp rating is high enough.Anker gets it right by optimizing one port for Apple products (including iPad) and the second port for non-Apple products. The two ports make it versatile, even if you never charge two devices at once.

A real plus for this phone is the light weight and its fairly long charged time.I guess if the fun factor (it does have a larger screen than some), weight, & charged time are important to you, this may be a good phone to consider.

There are THOUSANDS to choose from. I had seen the metallic looking ones and thought they looked cool and sleek, but then reviewers said the color chips off. Otter boxes are just too bulky. I wanted something that was hard, but not hard plastic that could break or came in two pieces. I didn't want silicone or anything that would catch fur/hair/lint or obstruct from a quick insert into my pocket. I guess what I really wanted was a cover that would protect from drops, but not add bulk to my phone, and yet have a nice design that showed off the design of the phone.This case fits the bill! It is a clear firm rubber, that is very transparent. The lip that comes up over the top of the phone gives a great amount of protection to the front. The circular design on the back is nice. It is not paint, it is actually carved on the inside of the cover. It has openings for the volume, mute and on/off switch. I like that personally. I have heard other cases can push down on the buttons if they are snug. This avoids that issue. This rubber will not end up stretchy like some of the silicone cases.The screen protector was a joke. The little plastic piece they send along for removing bubbles actually scratched it all up. Do yourself a favor and get a Zagg. They can be pricey, but they are indestructible, don't cause glare and resist smudging. Sign up for their mailing list and you'll end up with a 50% off coupon at some point.

I listened and bought the defender, I wanted the commuter because it was thinner and the defender was really thick. I hated the defender the first day but after that I started getting used to it and actually ended up liking it. I got my Commuter case in today and decided to try it out. It felt like it offered no protection since my iphone was moving around a lot in the case. Also the lock button on top is very very hard to press which I really didn't like on the Defender the top lock button is very easy and doesn't have resistance. I will be returning the Commuter case today and buying the Defender on Amazon since its cheaper than radioshacks price",1705,0 +1706,"What? Well, ok it looks ok. + +I opted for this phone in the hopes that it would get even better battery life than my older sony-ericsson phone, which crapped out after 2 years of charging once a week or so. I have a phone mostly for the opportunity, not to saturate my life, so standby time is key.I came here to complain about the bait and switch, and of course found the explanation for the z750's abominable battery life: 3G. If you haven't been paying attention for the past 5 years, 3G is the advanced data network that cellphone companies have been trying to push as the new wave, to supply you with streaming video etc to your phone. Just another premium feature some other dude should be paying for. And just to push it that much more, it seems like they've disabled the regular network access [see above].So, this is a bad phone [at the least, on the east coast]. But another crucial feature is poorly designed: the clock/LCD on the outside. It's beneath a partially reflective film, so that it's inset, which makes it nearly impossible to read even when it's dark out.Here's the lesson [as you'll see, you've already won half the battle]: when you need a new phone, sure, go to the store and pick out which you want. But under no circumstances should you buy it immediately. Exercise a tiny bit of post-picking effort and look at reviews AFTER choosing [instead of before, when the sheer number can swamp you, as it did me.

I put the battery from my old Galaxy Nexus under the front so the phone doesn't slip past its sweet spot and it fixed the issue. Since it doesn't work great for the device it was designed for (without modifications or frequent cleaning), I'm only giving this 4 stars.For my Nexus 7s and my new Nexus 5, it works great! Both the 5 and the 7 have a more matte backing so they don't slip, plus the sweet spot on the 5 is a little higher up so even if it did slide it would still charge. I had an issue with myLTE Nexus 7not recognizing it was on the charger when I first got it, but I'm fairly certain that was a software issue with the 7 since it started working after the first system update. Of course, it worked perfectly for the launch dateWiFi versionfrom the get-go.From my (non-quantified) experience, it seems to charge almost as fast as a wired connection, and the slant is good if you like to use your phone/tablet as a clock at night. Great for charging overnight or using as a stand/dock for your 7, but if you want a quick charge you should still fall back on using the cord.I would highly recommend this to anyone with a Nexus 5 or 7, I like it enough that I just bought my third one!",1713,0 +1714,"Aw boo! This is not for the iPhone 5 :( + +This is a charger for the Droids and Razrs etc. not for the iPhone 5. Wish that was indicated in the description,I LOVED the one I previously bought for my iPhone 4. It worked perfect! Retracted nicely :)",1714,0 +1715,"Great wallet, iOS7 killed the charger + +I was very excited to receive this wallet. It came beautifully packed with a small usb micro tip cable- 6 inches, and what looks like a 6 foot 2.0 usb micro tip cable as well, so 2 charger cables.I really like the quality of the wallet. I have 5 cards in the slots, and 3 bills of cash behind them. It closes nicely without looking stuffed and with no pressure on my iphone 5s screen. It is a little bit thicker than other wallet cases, but those cases do not hold 5 cards with extra cash. For a purse it's great, but I don't think it will slip into a pocket of jeans. A jacket pocket or sweatshirt is no problem.Now for the bad news. If you have an iphone running iOS7, this battery will not work. You get the pop up message of a 3rd party accessory might not work with your iphone, and then no charging will happen. Not even with the work around for that problem with 3rd party accessories.I hate Apple. If you are still on iOS 6.1.4 or under, it should still work for you.I weighed returning it, but I really liked the wallet, so I adapted it to at least be a usable wallet case. I pulled off the charger mount. It comes right off if you give a slow steady pull, and work the glue away. There was still some residue, but not much. I used another iphone 5 case- a spect- Used reusable 3m scotch stick strips, and stuck it to the case. The spect was white with hot pick trim so it was a perfect match. A shame the charger portion did not work. My husband has an iphone 5 still on 6.1.4 so I will give it to him. On it's own it is a great charger case (with a little glue residue on the back!)If a jailbreak makes 3rd party chargers work again with the lightning connectors, then I can stick it back into the case and have a charger case that works.I would have given 5 stars if the charger was compatible with iOS7. The seller needs to put a note in the description that is does not work with an iphone 5s, or an iphone 5 upgraded to iOS7. Or pay the Apple fee to be an official MFI (made for iphone) accessory.

Web is useless. Ok phone for calling and texting, but not for anything else. Probably better off not spending $129.00 + tax at Best Buy for this phone.",1723,0 +1724,"Not bad + +DESIGNOverall it's a good sized phone. To me coming from an iPhone, the Incredible 2 has a similar look as the iPhone. The big difference is that the Incredible 2 is a bigger screen. I'm overall impressed with the design. It's sleek and fits well in the hands and pocket. It's not cumbersome like the HTC thunderbolt. I also like that that there is a notification light at the top of the phone (something that the iPhone does not have). The screen itself has good resolution, it might not be the Retina display of the iPhone or the super AMOLED of the droid charge, but to my eye it's good enough to watch movies clearly.HTC SENSEI really like the HTC Sense. Some people prefer the unadulterated google android system, but I think HTC sense is a very fluid system. I like the large clock in the center screen. I also love the weather clearly displayed on the home screen (often with cute animations, such as rain drops or clouds). If you pinch the home screen, you are able to zoom out and see the total of 7 screens where you are able to place shortcuts to apps or use widgets. I like that the main home screen is at the center of all the other screens (with 3 on the left and 3 on the right). The iPhone has the main home screen all the way on the left (like the first page in a book), so that if you want to go to page 5, you have to shuffle across several pages, which is annoying. Using the keyboard is fluid and I like the use of auto-correction/suggestion. On the main screen is a button to go straight to the phone. When you press it, it launches the phone and large number pad appears, on the bottom of the screen, while on the top it lists your recent calls. Accessing your contact list from the screen is a bit of pain and requires several button pushes. But then I realized there is a smart dial feature (where you use the number pad to enter a person's name, and a matched contact name appears). Makes it really easy.SOFTWAREAndroid software I think has become on par with Apple's iPhone. There are also some great apps that iPhone does not have, like free navigation from google, full integration with google voice, and plenty of other amazing google apps (like google sky). I've found all the apps I've wanted from the android market. The phone is quick and very responsive. 3G to me is good enough and internet pages launch quickly enough.CAMERA/VIDEOGood quality. The pictures come out well. The video camera is great but has difficulty picking out sounds so that if you are filming someone who is talking, on playback on your computer you can't really hear them. The camera as expected does poorly in low light.CALL QUALITYMy phone has a distinct but faint echo when speaking into it. I can hear my own voice (the person on the other line does not hear an echo). It's not very obvious but somewhat annoying. I considered whether this was a deal breaker, but didn't think that it was that much of annoyance. It seems that the first droid incredible also suffered from similar issues. I haven't found that many people complaining of this in the Droid Incredible 2. Verizon was unable to help fix the problem and HTC recommended replacing the system, which I haven't decided on whether to do it, not wanting to get a badly refurbed version. The other annoyance is that the speaker phone is on the underside of the phone, so that when you put the phone with the screen face up, the speaker gets muffled (which is annoying when making calls and wanting to use the speaker phone). Obviously turning the phone face down helps solve this problem, but then I can't input anything (since the screen is now covered).MUSICOverall the phone has all the features you want to listen to your music and podcasts. I have found that on HTC models there is a soft though obvious hiss when listening to music with headphones. It's more noticeable during quieted points in the music. It also is obvious between songs and will last for 2-3 seconds after you turn off the music. Apparently this has been a problem with HTC phones (just search for this on the internet). I have a high end set of skullcandy in-ear headphones, with my iPod and prior iPhone I never noticed a hiss. The hiss can be stopped by getting a high impedance (20-30 ohms) headphones or getting a headphone with inline volume control (which then then can be adjusted to get rid of the hiss). I already have a nice set of headphone, so I'm not sure what to do here (paying another $40 or just dealing with it). But this is annoying that there even is a hiss (though you can only notice it in quiet environments, while walking on the street you can't hear).MACIf you are a mac user, then no worries you can easily sync your droid (in fact any droid) to the Mac. Doubletwist is not recommended because often times it does not sync album art. The best is iSyncr which costs like $3 from the store and does a great job syncing photos, videos, and movies. Your contacts and calender can be synced using Google (both iCal and the Address book on your mac can be synced to google, which then is synced to your phone). As an aside, you might be used to beautiful high pixel photos on your phone, unfortunately when you sync with google your pics are downgraded so that when you get them on your phone they are heavily pixelated.OVERALLThis phone gets 3.5 stars. The HTC sense is great and easy to use. The camera and video recorder gives good clear pictures (with nice strong flash). But the echo during calls is off putting and the hiss on music playback is extremely annoying. The dilemma I faced was whether to return it for another phone. If I had paid the retail value of $200, it would be a no brainer and this phone would be gone in a heartbeat. But since I paid $80 it's maybe worthwhile to keep around, because there are a lot of great pluses (though two major minuses). Bottom line, if you have $200 to blow, shop elsewhere. If you're budget is less than $100 then I recommend checking out this phone.ONE MONTH UPDATEI've been using this phone for a full month now. I decided not to return it. Overall I really like it. I originally gave it 3 stars but now I've bumped it to 4 stars. The echo on phone calls is there, but I've gotten used to it and it doesn't bother me. The soft hiss on the music is also not noticeable in most places I use the phone, traveling on the bus or car (walking down the street). I really like all the great apps I get on it (for free from Amazon) and I love Google Music (having all your music in the clouds, so I don't even have to sync my music to my phone). Also Google voice allows me to send free text messages. So overall 4/5 stars after a month of use.FOUR MONTH UPDATESo this is my final update. I thought I'd share my experience. The major thing I'd found annoying is battery life. I've noticed lately that battery use is somewhat sub-par. Sometimes I find that my phone has drained itself to less than 40% power. This occurs with what I consider, light use, including listening to music for my 20 minute drive, checking email maybe twice, sending a few text messages, browsing the net (one page at most) for 15 minutes at most, and one or two calls. And with this light use, I drain my battery. For example today, I'm down to 40% (it's 2 pm in the afternoon).Here are my stats:Display= 39%, used for ~40 minutes (set at 50% brightness)Google Maps= 11%, used for 4 minutes, with GPS nav used for 8 minutesWifi= 9%, used since the AM 6 hours (though I haven't surfed the net today)Voice calls= 7%, 3 minute conversationThose were my top applications used, yet I'm down to 40%, which is pathetic. My only guess is that the Wifi is constantly checking for a signal and perhaps draining the battery. I've never had the phone die on me, as an aside. This battery life is as good as my 3 year old iPhone. This is problematic enough that I'm downgrading the phone to 3.5 stars (unfortunately, amazon doesn't allow this so it'll be set to 3 stars). I like to keep my phones for several years and with this one I'm foreseeing having to buy another battery for it in the future, which is annoying.In retrospect, would I still buy the phone? I'd definitely get an android phone. I've now heavily customized it that probably any android phone would probably do. I'd likely consider looking elsewhere if the phone costs > $100.",1724,0 +1725,"Poor quality, falls apart + +As mentioned by a few other reviewers, this product fell apart on me after 1 month of use.

On the most battery conserving settings and after doing 4 deep cycles of the battery, it will now hold a charge for 11 hrs before being below 20% battery.I contacted Samsung where I was told I had a defective battery and to contact the place of purchase. Samsung didn't have any replacement batteries for me to purchase, nor did they even offer to replace it had they had one. Amazon's customer service was GREAT!

This fits the Motorola Droid Razor Maxx perfectly, and will even work with my case on (a soft plastic back cover).

(Would like to see support for whatsapp, hangout) - also probably will come later- The bezel could have been narrower (a watch doesn't need a bezel, unlike a phone which is held in a hand)- Charging not via micro-USB port, but a special cradle.

I decided to try something else since the Jawbone was the most expensive option where I was shopping (BestBuy iirc) and I liked the necklace-strap that comes with it, which I thought would be useful and reduce the chances of my misplacing this one as I had done with the Jawbone. Big miskake - the sound quality is very poor (lots of complaints from callers who never complained when I was using the Jawbone) - it's especially bad if you are outside and there is any wind, a condition under which the Jawbone performed well. I've also had two of the three earbuds that came with the headset just fall off over the course of the day, leaving me one ill-fitting set away from needing to acquire replacements. Further, the strap is about an inch too short to reach comfortably to my ear when around my neck. When the last earbud inevitably falls off, I'll go back to a Jawbone or try another option after asking around.",1743,0 +1744,"Defective Equipment + +The Jambox was defective on delivery.

It is quite lightweight and would be easy to forget that you have it on. That is, until you've had it on for more than 30 minutes or so. The actual rubber loop that fits around your ear is a bit too stiff to wear comfortably for extended periods of time (say, for an hour long conversation). So far, this is the only real negative I have found about the unit.The speaker sound quality when connected to a Treo 650 with Cingular service is far superior to the built-in Treo earpeace. The volume, though louder than the Treo, is still a little too soft and would have some trouble overpowering ambient noise in a car in traffic with the windows down, for example. Still, the majority of the shortfall in quality/sound still lies with the quality of your cell phone service (i.e., Cingular leaves much to be desired).Lastly, the claims of ""30 foot range"" are a little grandiose. As is true for most Bluetooth devices, the practical day-to-day range is on the order of 10-15 feet, which is still quite useable. I have found it helpful at home, where there are only a few places I get a good signal on my phone. I can leave the phone in one of these places yet am not tied down to it while I talk (and battle with the phone for a clear signal).All in all, I think this unit is a very good buy for the money and, at the very least, a good entry-level unit for people like myself thinking about trying a Bluetooth headset. But please, whatever you do, don't wear it around everywhere like a complete idiot. It doesn't make you look cool. It makes you look like a Star Trek reject.",1746,0 +1747,"Very nice case that works + +This is a nice little waterproof case. The phone goes into the case easily and the locking mechanism works very well.I like that you can use the touch screen under water, as well as the camera.

Still, I have no interest in taking my phone scuba diving with me. ;-)I will use this when we go boating, and for sure when we go fishing, because you never know when you and your phone is going to be in the water! Also, I will probably also use this case in the summer while horse back riding, because we get very big rain storms, unexpected, and i am always afraid my phone will get ruined.Another good thing is the case will float.

Part of me doesn't blame them. If I reviewed electronics for a living, I wouldn't want to spend several days really testing the phone. However, with a cell phone as radically different as the Storm, it is unfair to make these judgments on the keyboard, etc. in haste.Simply put, the phone is very good. It isn't as breathtaking as I wanted it to be, however it is not nearly as disappointing as many critics want you to think (**cough** New York Times, excuse me). The keyboard is getting easier and easier to use as time goes by. If RIM put a tracker ball at the bottom of the phone where it is on all the other units, then this would in fact be, an iPhone killer. When I look at the phone, there is definitely room for that magical RIM trackball...(can you say Storm2?)Starting from the top. The phone feels solidly built. It has a good weight to it and feels durable. My only fear is that my propensity for dropping phones will be disastrous for the glass click screen. I'm having bad thoughts about not being able to do anything with the phone because the click activator ceases to work or I'll scratch up that beautiful screen. Three times in the last seven years or so I've had the misfortune of waking up from a night of drinking only to find giant cracks on the LCDs of my phones (can you say insurance? iPhone people can't, and that alone will FOREVER stop me from getting one). Seriously though, I really hope this thing is bomb proof. I have a silicon condom on it, which better keep it safe at night.I was perplexed when I powered it on for the first time. The phone takes several minutes to reboot. This is a laptop, not a phone, right? Thankfully I only have to reset the phone every so often... Pretty is a good word to describe the design and graphics overall.The click screen is a trip. It is definitely takes adjustment, but I really dig it. It definitely limits the speed of your typing because you must remain in line with the speed of ""The Cadence of the Clicker"" (this is the name of my next album). I say that because when you are really going at it, it can create a steady beat like a metronome. This just feels like one of the drawbacks to writing novels on any mobile device. All keyboards have a handicap, but I sincerely miss being able to press to multiple buttons at the almost exact time (as we are accustomed to on a computer keyboard). This system causes you to be a little more accurate because you can't barrel through your letters, so it may be a bonus after all. I also like the SureType keyboard in portrait mode. It uses the predictive text heavily, and it is a great fast type option with one thumb. This mode suffers most from the click limiter because the surface area is far too tight for dual finger typing as tempting as it is.One of my friends voiced his displeasure with the auto correct function on the text. I find it useful. Just remember if it auto corrects something and you don't like it, immediately hit the DELETE button, and it will revert to your perverted word or innocent typo. His changed the word ""f*&^ing"" into ""ducking."" The best way around this is to add these words that you use when frustrated or talking dirty to your lover into the Dictionary. To do so, go to the HOME screen, then choose: OPTIONS-CUSTOM DICTIONARY. Now hit the BlackBerry button and select NEW.I've also heard that the VZNavigator and Visual Voicemail programs should be removed to speed up the performance of the phone. After all, who is going to pay $10 and $3/month for such frivolous features? What I was jazzed to see is that Google Maps' triangulation feature was not disabled here as it was on my i760 and Treo. This means that it will show your approximate location on the map for free. It is a nice feature to get you partially orientated at no cost (just keep in mind it is using cell towers to locate you, so you must have service for it to work, which is not the case with true GPS/VZNav).The media player is good. It is not an iPod, but it has a great search feature, and is intuitively laid out. The resolution on the screen is better than the iPhone and video looks GREAT. The included headphones sound great and the speakerphone gets extremely loud, however it is very tinny sounding and has an over modulated feel when at high volumes.The icing on the cake is that I am not utilizing the BlackBerry Corporate server, therefore, I do not have to pay for BlackBerry data access. I am now paying only $29.99 for data where I was paying $44.99 on my Samsung for the exact same unlimited data/email service. With this savings, my Storm will pay for itself in 14 months of service!The device lock is good. You can either hit the button on the top left of the phone, or you can use the ""Lock"" button in your home menu. I'm peeved at how the Mute/un-Mute button still functions while the device is locked. I've had the phone suddenly start playing ""Rise Against"" over the speakerphone (which can get pretty damn loud) at times that I wished it hadn't. I understand that it is to let you control your music without unlocking the device, however I always saw locking as the way to prevent your phone from doing strange things in the privacy of your pocket/holster without your permission. FIX: just lower your media playback volume all the way to silent.The ringer alerts are one of the best features on the phone. I can't be happier in this department. This puts every phone I've ever seen to shame (I don't know if all BBs do this, this is my first). You can select from a plethora of options including: Normal, Loud, Medium, Vibrate Only, Silent, All Alerts Off, and my personal favorite Phone Calls Only (all with the touch of a button). I'm used to an all or nothing world, or having to go into individual menus and make these decisions (time consuming/annoying? Yes). Furthermore, the alarm will sound in any mode other than All Alerts Off.Where the Storm crushes the iPhone is in the folder organization possibilities on the home page. Where the iPhone only allows you to move your applications around, the Storm lets you create folders to keep everything organized as if it were a computer desktop. I absolutely love this ability because I'm very big at keeping things `tidy.'I'm also a fan of how the screen fades down instead of cutting out when it is time to turn off. This is great because it reminds you that you have to do something to the device if you don't want the image to go away completely.Some tips:To get IMAP to work with GMAIL, follow the instructions here: [...]Don't waste your time like I did, just go directly to this website as per the forums instructions: [...]I was concerned that there was a charge to using this service (because I'm not utilizing Verizon's BlackBerry email service), but there isn't.To copy and paste, you simply hold down one finger where you want to start, and then drag along with another to where you want it to end.When entering text, if you spell something so terribly wrong that its suggestions aren't helpful, then the best thing to do is just delete the entire word. This is frustrating. It doesn't allow you to fix your mistake because when you click on a part of the word it makes you chose from the suggested list. I wish there were a way around this. Nevertheless, if you just give up, then you can move on without losing any more hair.I can't properly sync my phone with my Mac given the software they include and the USB cable.

I got tired of the Android/iphone app frenzy and decided to go prepaid after my contract finally ended with Verizon. I really love the BlackBerry keyboard, especially on the Curve. I think they have perfected the physical keyboard. I actually never wanted to lose the physical keyboard and as convenient as touchscreen keyboards are, they always seemed to crash at annoying times and make me use the terrible stock keyboard. This one works great, even with gargantuan thumbs like mine.For those that need a million apps to get you through the day, you might want to stick with your Android. The sheer volume of apps for Android is amazing, so it can seem a bit lacking when you first explore the BlackBerry App World. I have found, however, that they have basically everything I could need. One of the reasons for letting go of the Android was because I wanted to get back to a simpler phone. Consequently, I have downloaded far fewer apps for the BlackBerry, but my productivity has gone up.The email system on the BlackBerry is FAR superior to what the Android/iphone has to offer. All of my emails push immediately from both accounts (Yahoo and Gmail) and the navigation through the messages is simple. I have had a MUCH easier time keeping up with my email accounts with this phone than any of my previous smartphones.Alot of people rave about the BlackBerry Messenger. I haven't really gotten into it. I generally text and use Twitter for my e-conversing, but the Messenger seems to work fine. The Twitter apps are fine. UberSocial and Tweetcaster, which I feel are the best two twitter applications for smart phones, are both available in the AppWorld.The web browser works fine. It doesn't seem to have any problems. You can open multiple windows and the stacking interface looks pretty much like the Android Browser.The GPS works fantastic. It is superior to the terrible iphone GPS navigation and is on par with the voice-guided Android Navigator (which is the best money can buy, honestly). Anyway, it works perfectly. The voice navigator worked fine, and was basically as good as the Android voice navigator for full hands-free attention on the road.The battery life is spectacular. It is even better than the iphone battery. I get twice as long on this phone as I did on my Extended Life battery with my HTC Incredible. Android batteries suck. That is one thing I will not miss.The music player is loud and clear.The camera is lacking. My last one was 8MP and this one is a lowly 3.2, so it works for basic photos, but nothing Instagram quality. Oh, and there is no Instagram app for Blackberry. That is one of the few I miss.The phone itself is gorgeous. It just looks like a business phone, and that is pretty much what I wanted. It does everything I hoped it would, and if BlackBerry keeps releasing fine products like this, they've pretty much won me over for life.I would definitely say that I got more quality for my buck with this than any of the phones I have used prior.

In fact my last 2 computer purchases have been Dell and most likely my next purchase will be Dell. With this in mind I jumped at the chance to buy the Aero when it was offered on Amazon. I purchased the phone hoping to take advantage of its 3g capability. However that has not been the case. I purchased the phone thinking that it would work on all gsm networks. My carrier is T-mobile. Thus far I can only make phone calls and text messages. I cannot use their 3g network, only the edge. This makes web surfing nonexistent. I contacted Dell technical support and was advised that the 3g capability only works on ATT, not T-Mobile. Not being able to connect for web data connection greatly diminishes the value of the devise. I do not know how the phone performs on other gsm networks, but I would advise those wanting to use it on T-mobile to save their money. You can find other phones for less that can provide you the same service.Now that I have complained, let me offer some other considerations for potential buyers. I have no problem accessing the web with this phone using wi-fi. I like the looks and feel of this phone. Its lightweight and sleek looking. Video is clean and crisp. Pictures look good and its easy to use. Sound quality is better than most phones I've used in the past.

So, I was looking for one ""charging station"" for all three devices. I thought about buying the new Powermat where you lay devices down on the mat to charge them, but then I read that you need to buy specific cases for each device. Just got too expensive. This charging mat is a great solution, and I love it.

I've used it for about 2 months and it is not what I had thought it would be.Pros:-It does do what it says it will. It is waterproof, dustproof and shock proof. These all come with disclaimers however which will be discussed below.-I watched a review where a phone was thrown from a 3rd story window onto a brick driveway twice with no damage to the phone and my phone still looks like new when removed from the case.-The screen does not have a rainbow effect like many cases with a built in screen protector. The edges of the screen are still responsive and there is no noticeable convex shape like the Lifeproof case.-It makes a great conversation piece and I do feel my phone is very well protected.-All buttons and ports are ""useable"" and there are no small parts to lose.Cons:-Most noticeably, the rubber trim ring wears through extremely quickly. The area between the latches and the screen rubbed through and looked ratty in less than a month. The rest is still intact but shows wear.-As mentioned above, the main selling points are present but they are not perfect. It is very hard to get a good seal that will keep out water. It took me 3 tries to get it to hold out water in the pre-use empty case test. I almost sent it back as defective but it worked eventually and I only need it to stand up to rain, not being submerged. Dust also collects in every nook and cranny and the textured surface holds dirt that can't be rubbed off easily.-It's massive. I knew this going in and it doesn't bother me but everyone that sees it laughs at how huge it is.-The port openings put a lot of stress on the connectors and jacks and my Lightning cable has a permanent bend to it already.-Why is the color on the inside? Just a single corner of color is visible and the rest if just a dull gray.-MOST IMPORTANTLY- You can't hear a thing from the in-call speaker unless the background is perfectly quiet. Even being outside makes it impossible to hear the other person. THIS is the main reason I ditched this case for daily use. I marveled at how loud the phone was in-call when I first got it and this ruined it. It rendered my PHONE into a text machine and forced me to run to shelter every time I got a call. This is completely unacceptable.Overall:If you plan to beat the crap out of your phone by dropping it and dunking it, this may be the case for you.

If you pair the phone with bluetooth, the device will only last < 5 hours. WHen I tried to exchange this phone for an E series, Nokia refused to take it back since it wasn't defective.

I've gone through a half-dozen mounts from both no-name to brand-name and ended up returning them all.My BMW probably doesn't help. It's got a dashboard with a pebbled/textured finish. It's not perfectly flat. And I drive like a jerk. The latter is a crucial point of failure for mounts with a longer reach that multiply the leverage of a heavy phone on a suction cup. Read: mount (with phone attached) goes flying off to the side, usually into my passenger's face.I figured this one had physics working in its favor off the bat, being so short (but I was a tad worried about it having the phone out of reach). Turns out that's not a problem. Neither is the AMAZING grip on the dashboard side. As others mentioned, it's a suction cup AND an (reusable) adhesive pad. This means it ain't going nowhere. I've verified this with plenty of...brisk driving in both hot and cold climes.Also nice is the simple, fail-proof, spring-loaded holster. It's a very robust spring so there's no chance of the phone falling out accidentally, and it doesn't try anything funny in terms of foam pads or awkward positioning. It's deep/wide enough to accommodate even a slightly bulky hard case as well.True, it DOES take some practice/effort to insert and remove the phone one-handed. But it's not impossible, unless you're an invalid or really, really uncoordinated in which case, you should ask yourself: should you even be driving?That said, this is a very well-buit, well-engineered, simple mount that will hold your phone and not launch itself into someone's eye socket when taking a freeway offramp at three times the recommended speed.

Use coupon code verizon30. This also works for some other phones.OK, so you got this far to look at reviews. I have had this phone for 4 days and think it is an excellent phone. Some background; previous phones are Galaxy S3 and iPhone 4s. I researched and looked in detail at the Galaxy S4, Droid Maxx, HTC One, iPhone 5s and LG G2. I ended up with this phone because of the size and still has an excellent 4.7"" display, the built quality and feel in the hand, excellent battery life, stock Android with some really useful add on features.After being very frustrated with the battery life and lag on the S3 I decided it was time to upgrade. All the phones I mentioned are good phones. They are all noticeable larger than the Moto X. With the exception of the 5s which has a 4"" screen which I feel is just too small. The Moto X has better battery life than all but the Droid Maxx and LG G2. I get a day and a half with average usage. This varies for everyone. The Verizon version of the G2 is not that good because they redesigned the rear buttons in order to put in wireless charging. This along with the LG UI and not being sure how the LG will do in the market and provide timely updates removed it off my list. And with my demand for a long battery life that eliminated all the others except the Droid Maxx. The Maxx and X are very similar phones. The Maxx does have the best battery life but it is larger and heavier with the 5"" screen and extended battery. If you are fine with that or prefer the larger screen that may be the way to go. I felt the size and feel of the Moto X was better for me in comparison so I choose the Moto X.The negatives of the Moto X are that it is only available with 16GB at this time and it is sealed so you cannot add not add an SD card or change the battery. The Maxx is also sealed but has 32GB. This was not a deal breaker for me. My plan was that if I was disappointed with the Moto X battery I would exchange (14 days) for the Maxx. So far I have been very impressed with the battery life. I have read some reviews that have complained about the call quality and the camera quality. I have not had issues with either. There is also an update to the camera software that will fix some of the issues that people complained about. The call quality and speakerphone have been good for me. It does have an excellent speaker. Maybe not as good as the HTC One but plenty good.The additional features include the active notifications (screen blinks every 5 seconds to show notifications, Motorola Assist (detects when you are driving and changes settings accordingly), Motorola connect (you can see you calls and texts from your computer and respond), and hands free Google Now (you can access Google Now hands free and it will do various functions like calls, calendar events and Google searches). You can read more about these functions on the various reviews of the Moto X and new Droids.Hope this was helpful and feel free to ask any questions. Thx.An update (10-15-13): Still very happy with phone and the battery has been great and it charges quickly. I did notice that the screen can be difficult to see in sunlight. The auto brightness does not adjust well when outside, you will need to go into setting and turn up the brightness. Not a deal breaker for me.

First, it ""disconnects"" after every call, so you have to select ""handset"" every time you make or receive a call. Coupled with the BB Touch's slight latency, this is really annoying. Second, the button on the phone that operates mute and pick up/hang up does not work with the Blackberry Touch 9930 (it did work with the BB 8830).I wrote to Nation Union to ask if there was a remedy, but I received no response.

(I bring that up because... hey... Pinoys gotta represent!)The Disco is 12"" long, 2-1/2"" deep and 3-1/2"" tall. It weighs about 3 lbs, with case and adapter, and uses a relatively straightforward ""sound bar"" design with two forward-facing speakers and a neodymium woofer. It uses Bluetooth A2DP 2.0 to wirelessly link with your compatible device. It also includes a standard 3.5 mm stereo jack to connect non-Bluetooth equipped devices to the unit.The Disco has a control wheel and panel on its right face that toggle the functions of the sound bar and gives you control over your Bluetooth linked media device. You can adjust volume, play, pause, move forward and back, as well as tweak your bass settings with a button that boosts the power going to the woofer.Supertooth includes a sturdy padded neoprene case to protect and carry your speaker. The lid folds back underneath the case and the Disco can be used while still in the enclosure. The case includes a pull out flap in the back to give you access to power and audio ports, and a grill that allows the subwoofer to breathe.Pairing the Disco with a compatible Bluetooth device is fairly simple. With the device off, you press the power button for 5 second. When the power light switches between blue and amber, the Disco is now discoverable. You then instruct your Bluetooth device to connect to the Disco, using the standard (and completely useless) ""super secret to anyone who has never heard of password security"" PIN of ""0000"".We tested the Disco with an iPhone 3G and 3Gs, a first-generation non-Bluetooth equipped iPod touch, several laptops and iPad and a few generic audio devices. It should work just fine with iPhone 4, compatible Blackberry and Android phones, as well as ANY device that supports the A2DP standard.The Disco will pair with up to 8 devices at a time. Should you attempt to connect more, the Disco will automatically discard the pairing that is least used. Though only one Bluetooth device can be connected at any given time, the Disco allows for simultaneous connection of devices through Bluetooth and the stereo jack. That feature is useful for those who want to the use the Disco as a desktop sound bar while still allowing for easy connectivity for their mobile devices.The Disco has plenty of power for it size. Supertooth equipped the Disco with left and right speakers each supplied with 8 watts of power, and a neodynium subwoofer with its own 12 watt amp. The 28 watts of power give you a surprising amount of volume and the enclosure makes the best of that power.The Disco is powered by an internal battery that is rated to last between 3 and 10 hours depending on how loud you play your music. I was able to squeeze 8 hours play while listening to podcasts, but one of my coworkers drained the unit in just over 3 with some loud hard-core music that had most of us running for the exits. Standby power is rated for 1,500 hours. (The approximate length of a drive through the boring part of Kansas - Sorry Kansas) The included AC adapter is small, light, and capable of charging the unit from dead to full in just under 6 hours, or continuously powering the Disco for when you're using the unit on a desk or static location.Enough about the specs. How does it perform? In a word, ""depends..."" (No--the other kind)The bottom line is that you need to consider what you listen to. If you're a classical music nut and anything but perfection drives you crazy, look elsewhere as the bass-heavy Disco tends to muddle highs and midrange during the quiet parts... especially since Bluetooth can introduce some artifacts into the audio if you're in a 2.4 Ghz unfriendly zone.Still, that's not to say that it's not a good gadget - because it is. We were surprised by the overall quality of the sound coming out of such a small speaker and that quality was most evident when listening to pop, techno, jazz or podcasts. Of course it has its shortcomings, but if you want a well-rounded portable speaker that is a well-designed audio companion on the desk or on the road, the Disco might be for you.",1808,0 +1809,"Poor Quality + +When I first plugged the 3GJuice into my iPhone, it did not work at all.

The v710 has the best reception and sound quality I've found in a cell phone.That being said, I'm sure the reason this ""high-end"" phone is now inexpensive is Verizon's miscalculation when they disabled most of the v710's Bluetooth capabilities. Currently, there's a lawsuit pending against Verizon for this very reason. I see Verizon is now giving away a free Bluetooth headset with the v710 to make you focus on what their Bluetooth will do, because it won't OBEX (object transfer) ...or much else.

Ever.""Verizon: We're Always Working For Profit.""",1815,0 +1816,"Love my phone + +To be fair this is the first phone that I've owned. Resisted until the middle of last year when I looked to buy a phone and this is the one I chose out of all the reviews and models I looked at.I keep it in my left pocket all the time and use it with my left hand. I'm right handed, so I have no issues with the ergonomics. I like the look of the clamshell phones but upon trying them out in the store, they were all too flimsy feeling or too small for my hands (I'm 5'11 medium build).The screen is very good, large for a mobile and very sharp. The camera is ok for snapshots, the video is limited to 9 seconds but third party apps can take as long as you can fit in the memory.I use it as an alarm clock in the morning, I set the calendar and/or clock to remind me of meetings, things to do, etc. at work and of course it tells me the time (I don't wear a watch).It also has a very good calculator and conversion tool for lengths/weights/etc. which I again use at work - I work for a large corporation and I'm constantly on the move.It does have Realplayer built in, it does what it's supposed to do but it doesn't play .WMV or some other formats. I don't use it as an MP3 player much but I have UltraMP3 installed which works very well and looks good. The sound from the loudspeaker is decent for a phone but the output from headphones is mono.I've had no problems with the phone side of Bluetooth. It works flawlessy, more than can be said for my PCs USB adaptor.For calling and receiving calls, I would say it's an average cell phone it terms of clarity and signal strength. Of course this all depends on your provider. T-Mobile is ok, I have no real problems with them and never go over 300 peak mins a month.The best recommendation I can give is, if I dropped it (harder than it's already been dropped) and it broke, I'd buy another one, or the newest model of it, the next day.",1816,0 +1817,"It's a Fraud product of misleading advertising + +Ok so only day 4 with it and I am so angry because I gave my money for this phone that keeps getting missed calls. The power button sometimes doesn't unlocks the screen, and there is NO OTHER WAY to unlock the screen, the sound for calls is really bad my friends have told me, 16GB is a LIE, I went to settings storage and is only 12gb wow I got so angry because with all the system apps from google and android is only 10gb left to put apps and music. I let myself guide for all the good reviews and when I started having troubles I decided to read the bad reviews and is all that happens to me.If a phone is not even good for receiving calls so is a phone that should never be in the market, also has a terrible signal even my itouch is faster when opening pages on the browser.My advice is be careful when buying something, search a list of flaws on the phone brand you wanna buy and you will get a better idea of what it really is. The nexus 5 is just an experiment and the ones who buy are just the guinea pigs.",1817,1 +1818,"Overall very satisfied with product + +This is a heavy duty screen protector that works really well, and unlike other screen protectors I've tried in the past on other phones this one seems like it could last forever after having installed it properly. I have 2 Nexus One phones and I will purchase a 2nd for my other phone. Personally, the thick rubberized feel makes typing on the touch keyboard seem more responsive,and comfortable, because the naked glass screen is otherwise so slick that every time I lightly touch it my fingers slip ever so slightly if only a millimeter, which could be enough from time to time to register a wrong keystroke. However I have to dock the product a star because there are still visible micro-bubbles underneath the screen protector after 3 days. The maker claims that they will disappear after a few days, and although their visibility seems diminished I remain skeptical that they will disappear completely(not a deal breaker for me).In response to critics of the product that have a major hangup of using water in the application process, the product comes with a fine mist sprayer meant to lubricate the sticky side of the film so that all the air pockets can be easily pressed out by sliding a plastic card across the screen after the protector is installed. This is an ingenious method, because when this is done the air pockets disappear so easily, ultimately making installation easier than other protectors I've used. Consequently collected water is also pressed out, so have a paper towel or lens paper handy to catch the excess water so it doesn't reach the speaker or the scroll ball. In the event that water does reach these areas it's no big deal because it's only small droplets whose surface tension will prevent them from seeping into these small holes on the device. On top of that the product maker also recommends not turning on your device for 12 to 24 hours, I assume as a precautionary measure. But instead of waiting 12 hours, I chose to use a hair dryer carefully alternating between the low and cool setting as to not cause heat damage to the screen, while drying out any potential moisture seeped into these areas. During this process I periodically pressed the screen to my cheek to check the temperature to make sure the phone wasn't heating up.",1818,0 +1819,"So-So + +Very slow to charge, does not charge the iPhone internal battery and the case battery at the same time when phone attached to charger.Several times it has become very hot and caused the phone to freeze up.UPDATE 1: Company definitely is on top of customer support! Received an immediate contact from them to provide a replacement for possibly defective unit!",1819,0 +1820,"Very Good Case, But A Few Annoyances + +The Active case is the thicker brother of the Seidio Surface - the latter being not much more than a hard plastic shell with a felt lining. This one has a two-part system: essentially an all-around rubber glove with a 6-point hard, plastic ""skeleton"" piece on the back to keep it in place and add some rigidity. The hard shell portion is not much more grip-able than the phone itself: it's the rubber sides that give the traction you need to hold on to it. But either way, it is not too hard to get in and out of a pocket. There's certainly more case-against-pocket friction compared to the raw phone, but not so much that it would get caught in my khakis or jeans. Overall, I like it and will stick with it going forward.Pros:- Very thin. The pictures are a little deceiving because it wraps around to the front, making it look thicker when it is in fact just covering the front face more (i.e. not a bumper).- Covers the front screen so with any reasonable drop at any angle to a flat surface will not impact or scratch the screen. Gravel and other uneven surfaces won't fare well - not that any case of this caliber would be expected to.- Leaves a generous border around the screen itself, so most 3rd-party protectors should have no trouble.- All ports and external devices are cut around, so no loss of functionality.- Easily and quickly removed if so desired, yet durable enough to hang in there when you don't want it to come off.- Fits in the officialSamsung Galaxy Universal Suction Car Mount Kit for Samsung Galaxy Phoneswith a fraction of an inch to spare.- Reasonable pricing at 25 dollars on sale. For the quality of case it is worth it.Indifferent:- Tight, but not too tight. It gives away at the top and bottom, but the rigid frame keeps it together overall. However I could see dirt/lint collecting inside the case over time since it does give at some parts particularly when removing it from a pocket.- Buttons are fully covered, but the case easily deforms to allow them to be pressed. It's a bit hard to locate them by feel though since the sides have so many bumpy surfaces (again for grip).- This caliber of case does not come with a screen protector - either built-in to the case or as a set. It's up to you to decide if you need one. Personally I think the front edge protection is enough.- This case is also available as a combo with the holster for 15 dollars more as theSeidio BD2-HK3SSGT2K-BK ACTIVE Case with Metal Kickstand and Holster Combo for Samsung Galaxy Note 2 - Retail Packaging - Black. But with the large size of the Note 2 a belt holster would look a bit odd. Still it might be your only option if you don't have large pockets or a purse.Cons:- Headphone jack port opening was a bit too small for my cable. However with a firm push it expanded enough to fit.- It's a lint collector. You never realize how much fine lint is in your pocket until you pull the case out. The lint wipes off easily with a finger though.- The kickstand on the back is innovative with it's magnetic hold to keep it in place when stored, but it feels flimsy, loose, and the non-adjustable 45-degree angle is too much for easy viewing on a desk. It's so steep that it reflects the overhead lights in my office.- Attempting to push the home button at the bottom while sitting on a desk will cause the phone to tilt forward because the back is not completely flat (blame the kickstand bulge). So you need to support it when doing so.- The kickstand and case have enough grip to keep it stable when deployed at an angle on a desk, but interacting with the screen (even with the lightest touch) will cause it to tilt backwards. The kickstand is off to one side so a tap anywhere on the left (opposite the stand on the right) defeats the stand support. This case on smaller phones would probably be less of an issue.- When the package was first opened there was strong chemical smell coming from the rubber. I placed it in front of a fan for 12 hours and the smell diminished. Even after 3 days of normal use, the smell is still there - maybe half the intensity. I suspect over time it will decrease further, but something to know about if you are sensitive and/or want to use it right away.",1820,0 +1821,"Will not work for an iPhone 4 + +Don't buy this if you are taking apart an iPhone 4 the screw drivers are the wrong size.

In the past few weeks I have tried the LG VX7000, which dropped calls faster than a brick, and the Kyrocera (or however you spell it) which also drops way to many calls. I have been very happy with the V710, the camara sucks, as I am sure you have heard, but if you want a great camara, get a camara. The phone has some really niffty features on it and I am really starting to warm up to the menu, which can be just plain wierd if you are not use to it. Another thing that gives the Motorola a learning curve is the layout of the keys, but it can be a ""what the heck is that"" phone.

I read some reviews and decided to pick the LG eXpo over the HTC Tilt 2 or other phones.First Impression:+ Cool looking phone, with a chrome-plated rim on the side,+ Impressive specs, Quad-band, HSPDA/UMTS, Wi-Fi+ has QWERTY keyboard, the keys are easy to press+ Has dedicated button for access to task manager, by default set to the LG Task Manager, you can change it to the WinMo Task Manager or something else- Takes a while to boot up, feels like 10 secs- The touch screen takes a while to get used to, it's not bad, but not as responsive as iPhone+ Fingerprint sensor doubles as scrolling control+ dedicated volume buttonso By default the ""today"" screen is set to the WinMo default screen, but LG also implemented it's own, so I switched to that one, which is an improvement over the WinMo apps in terms of finger-friendliness (the WinMo ones were mostly designed for stylus use).- The contacts manager is unintuitive and hard to use. Functionality as simple as ""jump to contacts that start with C"" is lacking.- The task manager: has screen shots for the opened applications, but the close buttons are too smallAfter playing with the phone a bit more:- Fingerprint sensor is cool, but don't be surprised if it takes more than a few swipes to recognize your fingerprint, you have to swipe slowly. Also, it traps dust.o Camera is 5MP, but quality is so-soo No dropped calls yet, but I haven't seen the reception bar reach full yet.- Loaded with tons of trial software that I can't get rid of (they're in the ROM, so unless you flash the ROM they'll be there forever)- Internet Explorer is slow, so I replaced with Opera Mobile 10 beta, but some AT&T; specific links now won't work (all those Media Net links)- The LG (called LGIdle) shell is better than the WinMo default Today screen, but would be great if I could customize some of the buttons (e.g. replace IE with Opera and remove links to the trial software)- Replaced the LG contact manager with iContact, which looks like the iPhone contact manager- Looking into replacing the shell with PointUI (good) or SPB Home (best!)- Some apps try to connect to the 3G network even when I have the WiFi connection- Some apps (esp, WinMo Marketplace) tend to lock up when they're accessing the Internet and the phone become unresponsive.Conclusion:It's a cool phone but the software that comes with it out of the box is lacking and be prepared to spend time researching (and $$) to get some better apps.================Update #1:- Specs: I neglected to mention that this phone has a 1Ghz processor, and 480x800 screen. So spec-by-spec the eXpo blows many of it's competitors out of the water (iPhone, Droid, HTC tilt 2). The actual experience is another question though.- Touch screen sensitivity issues: it's usable, but since it has a resistive screen, you need to apply a little pressure. Compared to the iPhone which has a capacitive touch screen, the eXpo's touch screen definitely feels inferior. There are few if any phones running windows mobile with capacitive touch screens, the only one I know of is HTC HD2 which is yet to come to the US.- Battery life is poor, I have to recharge every 2-3 days depending on usage.- Apps. Again, out of the box it won't have many great apps.* Some noteworthy mention: The LG calculator can do a little more than simple arithmetic (sin, cos, tan, exp, etc), the tip calculator is handy, the schedules/tasks app is more finger friendly than the default WinMo one.* there's a lot of apps out there you can find on the internet, that problem is that they're scattered across different sites, many good ones aren't free and not all are finger-friendly. You need to spend time to try/research good ones.* WinMo Marketplace still has room for improvement, many apps aren't up-to-date (e.g. Bing is 4.7 but latest is 5.0, Skyfire is 1.0 but latest is 1.5); also, it has to check for updates when it starts up, and often it hangs and causes the phone is become unresponsive for a while as well.- I tried out the voice command functionality a couple of times. Usable, but not great, and it requires you to assign a button as the ""voice command"" button, the problem is there aren't many buttons that you can program (one for task manager and one for camera, the other 4 are on the slide-out keyboard)- If you select to unlock the phone using your fingerprint sensor it means you won't be able to use the default WinMo locking screen (which has info like your upcoming appointments and missed calls, see image I uploaded), instead, you'll see the screen that instructs you to swipe your finger on the sensor================Update #2:- (re. voice command in update #1) I realized that I don't need to assign a dedicated voice command button. The ""back"" button is used for that purpose. Press and hold the ""back"" button and voice command will be activated. The manual (which you need to download yourself) mentions that.- Also, press and hold the ""end call"" button to lock the phone.- it seems that the LG in-call menus is not integrated well into WinMo or the lock screen. If you use the fingerprint lock screen and receive a call when the phone is locked, you can receive the call but you won't see the in-call menu (buttons like hold,speaker, end call, etc). Also, if you use the WinMo lock screen and receive a call when the phone is locked, the WinMo UI for receiving calls show up instead of the LG one.",1841,0 +1842,"Car charger works + +The car charger part of this kit works great.

TELEPHONE the battery loses too fast..",1843,1 +1844,"Nokia N8 - best Nokia phone I have used... But they end of my relationship with Nokia. + +The title of the review may be confusing for some, but let me explain. I have been a die hard nokia user for the best part of my adult life, since mobile phones really came into the mainstream. Pretty much every phone I have owned has been a nokia. Prior to the smartphone era, Nokia's were hands-down the best phones out there. The user interface was easy to use and understand, and the menu format, typing, etc were all the least fiddly of the phones on the market.Then came the smartphone era. I can't profess to having owned LOADS of different phones, so I can only give my own personal point of view. The 2 Symbian phones I owned were a 5800 and an N8, using 2 different versions of Symbian - S60 and S^3, which was touted as being a great improvement over S60. I stuck with these phones through thick and thin, determined to stand by Nokia, with a firm belief they were still the best out there.My experience with Symbian has been this. Nokia has certain trump cards for its smartphones that no-one else out there can profess to. Nokia Maps for one. It may not beat the likes of Google Maps for ease of use ability to find what you're looking for, but to have extensive offline maps of pretty much any country you want is amazing. Joikuspot, the free mobile hotspot software is also amazing, there are a few others which escape me, but suffice to say, there are several things available to Nokia users which iOS, Android and Blackberry users cannot say they have an equivalent.BUT, when you just need your phone to get something done quickly. Say, pulling up a map with pubs, restaurants, shoe shops, whatever, in the vicinity of where you are, get you the website, the phone number, directions etc. Android and iOS users will have Nokia beat every time. Doing tasks like this would take me twice, three times as long on my Nokia than someone with an Android or iPhone. My phone just wouldn't find what I wanted, or it would freeze, or it would reboot itself right at a crucial time when you really didn't want it to. And this is why I finally gave up on Nokia. Their hardware is SECOND TO NONE. The N8 is a beautiful phone, it's solid, tactile, the anodized aluminium body feels great. The camera is AMAZING. I took pictures on that and people didn't believe I didn't take them with my DSLR. Video on the N8 is amazing too - all the built in editing functions are unbelievable, it's virtually and HD camcorder in a phone. But as a smartphone, it just doesn't cut it. And I put the blame fully on Nokia's insistence (at the time) to cling on to Symbian. Even S^3 is unstable in my opinion. Freezing and crashing shouldn't happen on a top phone manufacturers flagship phone. Period. Maybe the partnership with Microsoft will bring something better to the table.So in the end, I ditched my unlocked N8 with pay monthly AT&T;, got a 2 year AT&T; contract, a $150 Motorola Atrix 4G running Android 2.2 on Amazon Wireless, and it's the best decision Ive made in a long time.

However, after a short while I realized a major design flaw: there is a gap between the case lip, which is supposed to sit snug on the display, and the display of approximately 0.5 mm (about a fingernail thick). From this design issue follow two major disadvantages:1) the total thickness of the iPhone 5 with CaseCrown Lux Glider is with 11 mm pretty much exactly the same thickness as the iPhone 4/4S with its CaseCrown Lux Glider. So even though the iPhone 5 is approximately 20% thinner than its predecessor you won't notice any difference once the case is on.2) this gap is a perfect place to gather dust.

People talk and talk about how awesome it is, but you literally cannot describe it with words well enough.- Viewing angles are also unbelievable. If you turn the screen until you can barely see the glass, you can still see everything on it! It looks just like a photograph!- They clearly knew they were designing a device that is "too big," and they made some compensations to help that. Buttons pop out just enough to use them and no more to keep the device sleek but fully functional. The size allows for bigger buttons, but also plenty of room between them so that you can grip the phone without hitting them.- I like the fact that they left some space to either side of the 3 bottom buttons. Perfect for holding the phone by the corner with your thumb(s) while you're reading without hitting the back or search button.- The native programs seem to have been designed with BIG in mind as well. For example, when you are in a call, all of the buttons are dropped to the bottom third of the screen so that you can reach them with your fingers.- LOVE the glance screen. I have it on all the time which is perfect for my OCD time-checking tendencies, and I haven't noticed any extra drain on the battery.- Battery life is fantastic. I've been able to get solid 2 days out of it with no problem, including a lot of txting/browsing and light gaming.- The pre-installed apps are very nice! It's nice to get a phone out of the box and it handle 75% of what I'll regularly be doing- Speakers are VERY loud and clear!! Played some punk and some techno; both came through fantastically!- On the topic of music, Mix Radio is really nice to have! I was blown away by how many selections they had for some genres.- Love the fact that I can individually access my voicemails by clicking on them instead of having to log into voicemail and wait through the digital announcer.- VERY happy to be able to access my files on this phone through a regular windows explorer window.Things that are so-so:- There seems to be a small issue w/touch sensitivity that some people are experiencing, but that may be fixable through software.- Phone calls are fine. That's about it. They are clear, but could be louder. Definitely seems to be better quality than my Titan though.Things I'm not too happy about:- Every review mentions the pointy corners; I now know why. I thought they were being nitpicky about it, but they do seem to get annoying when trying to walk around w/the device. I can definitely fit it into my pants pockets, but you have to position it a certain way while driving, else you get jabbed every time you hit the brakes.- I don't like the mini USB at the bottom, or maybe how it's cut. I realize that it's probably the best place to put it, but when I'm holding the phone, my pinky naturally lays right on the port to balance the phone, and if I'm holding the phone for any period of time, it tends to be pretty cutty/uncomfortable.",1861,0 +1862,"May or may not be charge ONLY. + +I bought a couple of these cables back at the beginning of September and I was sent Charge Only cables.

I've owned it for about a year and noticed that it doesn't hold a charge as well as when I first purchased it a year and a half ago. I really wanted this battery to work, and after reading the reviews for it had slim hopes for the product, however, I was hoping for the best. I installed it myself as I'm well versed with disassembling the phone completely, however, a simple battery change can take under 3 minutes if you know the correct steps in taking the phone apart. I had no dire issues installing the battery other than the connector cord is slightly stiff. I'm assuming it is because of the way that it is manufactured, so I would suggest connecting the pin before seating the battery into place. You can from that point fold the excess stiff cord in the groove between where the phone is connected and the battery itself. I reassembled the phone and powered the phone up, after it booted up the phone claimed to have 7% of battery. I figured that the battery had just been sitting around after being manufactured and that I would charge it to 100%. I plugged the phone into the OEM wall charger and it suddenly jumped to 23%, which is weird for the phone to do. I left the phone plugged in and rebooted it to make sure that it wasn't a software issue. After the phone had fully rebooted I let it sit on the charger for a solid 30 minutes. After the 30 minutes had passed the phone battery percentage didn't increase a single percentage. Keep in mind the battery logo in the upper right hand corner clearly said it was plugged in and charging the entire time. Well I remembered that I had to make a phone call and decided to see what that would do to the battery. So I left the phone plugged in to charge and made the call, after a 45 minute phone call with the phone connected to the charger the entire time I noticed that the battery actually drained to 11%. It wasn't even accumulating enough charge while being plugged in to sustain a phone call. Anyone who has owned not even just an iPhone but any phone for that matter knows that the phone should continue to charge while being plugged in regardless of if you're dialing out for it at the same time. So to conclude, this battery is not even worth the $5 that they ask for it as mine would not charge. Granted I may have received a faulty product, I wouldn't waste my time exchanging it for another one. My suggestion to you is that if you need a new battery and cannot find any other one to work, try this one as you may have a different experience.",1864,0 +1865,"Not as pictured + +I bought this because it was blue in the picture and blue is my favorite color.

The large screen is great for my everyday use, videos, games, & books, look really nice on screen. Love the camera it eliminated my need for my digital camera, one less item to carry around!

Before I begin this review, I must disclose 2 things:1. The only BT I have liked, where the sound was clear and people could understand me, is the Plantronics Pro series.2. I have a big head. I am not talking arrogance wise, I have a melon head.When I saw this little gem, I just had to have it. It was perfect! Sexy, cool charging case, wrap around style, long battery...etc. It was also perfect timing. My Plantronics Pro bit the dust and I just received my shiny new Samsung Galaxy S3 phone. A match made in Heaven...or so I thought.When I first put it on, I was probably more excited than any guy should be about a Bluetooth. The fit was perfect and I barely noticed it.After a few minutes of drooling, pounding my chest and striking poses in front of the mirror (Including facial expressions), it was was the moment of truth. I made my first phone call.Like a teenager watching a cop pour out his beer, all hopes and dreams were suddenly crushed. The words ""Hello??,"" ""I can't understand you"" and ""You sound horrible"" went through me like sauerkraut and French onion soup. It was a disaster.Naturally, I thought it MUST be my settings. So, I downloaded the ""My Motospeak"" app and sure enough, there were different settings for different environments. Feeling like I was the one that pulled the sword out of the rock, I called back with, ""Does this sound better?""""Not really""[Changed settings] ""Now?""""No""[Changed settings] ""Now??""""It's worse""[Changed settings] ""What about NOW??""""Hello??""By this point, it was obvious that my friend was either messing with me or a spider crawled in his ear, laid eggs and he could not hear me over the sirens in the ambulance.I then proceeded to call others. I got the same responses from them all. Basically, I sounded like I was the keynote speaker at a bubble wrap popping convention.Sorely disappointed and finally accepting defeat, I returned it.I would have given it an extra star based on style and coolness factor alone but the sound quality rendered it useless to me.",1868,0 +1869,"Great idea, work well, then die + +I have now purchased two of these. They each died within 2-3 months.I really like the overall idea of reducing/eliminating radiation into the ear canal.The sound quality is decent, considering the totally different method of delivery compared to most earbuds.However, both sets I purchased developed similar problems. There is a speaker section at the end of the electrical wire that outputs to the plastic tube. If the wire is under any tension or torsion (like it is under normal use), then it can twist/pull inside that speaker section, and cause the soldering to break.You can break open the wooden speaker section and resolder it. I did this and it worked well. But then it broke again, for the same reasons. My next step is to resolder, and then fill with silicone caulk to prevent movement in the section.My first pair had this happen and then also ended up having the wire break down by the plug, which wasn't fixable. I dealt with this particular failure mode in the second pair by using a piece of heat shrink tubing on it, which seemed to work well.",1869,0 +1870,"Works after modification + +Ordered two of these because I lost my original one and wanted a spare in case I lost one (also wanted one for work and another for home). Shipping was quick thanks to Prime and the price was right. Plugged my UP24 to it and then connected it to a usb port. Would not charge. Saw that the device fit a little loose, and not snug how I remember. Had to push the UP24 into the charger before it would start charging, and then I had to hold it pushed in for it to charge. Had to take a file and shave off some of the rubber end. Tested and the fit was snug. Device was charging like it normally should.

It ""sticks"" to my iphone as advertised - both without any cover and with my iLuv brand edge bumper. You can easily lift the phone to take it away without a hassle.My dislike is that it does not include the charger cable. Yes, this was clearly advertised. And yes it works for USB connections without the charger. That's not my beef.My disappointment is that the charger cable should be an option connected to the ad for the stand. It would be helpful if the seller included a ""suggested charger"" model, or a ""click here to see a compatable charger"" link.I now must find a charger with the correct voltage, amperage, polarity (not specified or marked on the device), and with correct male-connector size (Size not specified on device either). Any of which - if incorrect - will render the charger useless.I should note that connecting the iPhone to a usb port can talk to the computer no problems, but the side USB ports provide only minimal charging capability. That is to say, when you are using the iPhone the side USB ports don't provide enough current and the power level still shrinks.A single rear port is labeled ""USB port for charging""...But I've found that it doesn't provide any charge -- no doubt due to the missing charger cable.The instructions provided were almost useless: They were just a small note page with minimal info about how to use the ports.So seller, how does one get the charger? What's the model and do you carry it?",1872,0 +1873,"Could be a better phone. + +I bought this phone the week it came out because my Motorola Droid X kept crashing and the sales staff at Verizon said there was nothing they could do with it. They recommended the Samsung Galaxy S3 as a replacement that would be a huge boost to what I had been using. I thought I'd try it. Unfortunately, I took it back after 12 days for a refund. Here's why:My needs for a phone (these may not be yours, and that's ok)along with how the Samsung stacks up:1. I'm a business traveler and need a phone that can be operated with one hand.This phone misses. It's just too big. I bought a tablet to handle my larger screen needs. I find that I couldn't reach the top left 25% of the screen when using with one hand. This phone needs 2 hands. I think it would appeal to women who just normally use 2 hands with a phone and have a purse to carry the phone in. My belief is that a phone shouldn't be bigger than 4.2 inches diagonally. If the iPhone was Android, I love that size.2. I need a good battery life (and a replaceable battery)The battery life (even with Samsung 'profiles' turned on to help control battery life) did not get me through an entire day. My Droid X could get me through 1.5 days. The Samsung has the ability to replace the battery (like the Droid X) but they didn't have any wall chargers that I could take when I travel. There is no point in having to put the backup battery into the phone to charge it. I'm sure someone will start making a wall charger.I also found out that Motorola had included a Low Power Sleep mode on their phones but Samsung does not. this was a great feature when in a situation to conserve battery and keep the phone from searching for a signal (traveling, hotels, etc...) Maybe someone will create a high capacity battery for it.3. I need good GPSThe GPS on this phone would suck the battery down at an unbelievable rate. I would burn through 40% of the battery using GPS for a 20-30 minute drive. The Motorola would be about 20%. I even went for a 20 minute jog and used an app to track my run. The GPS shouldn't work that much because I'm lucky to run at 7 miles per hour. I still lost 25% of my battery. Don't know if it's a combination of 4g and GPS that runs the battery down, but this was my biggest frustration.4. I need to answer emailThe Samsung S3 does this well. The keyboard was really responsive (far better than the motorola droix x). Was still hard to type / text with one hand vs. 2. I do like the 'trace' typing but most droid phones have that now.5. I do like social networking and social appsSamsung's screen is amazing and really does make the apps 'pop'. If the battery life was better this would be an app users go to phone.*Side note - I do love a phone that takes good pictures and Samsung S3 does this really well and fast. Video was great too! I was floored how good the pics/video was. But like everything else on the phone, it requires a battery that lasts.My family went to the zoo for 4 hours with the little kids and the phone's battery ran out (even with the screen set to the dimmest setting).The salespersons suggestion when I brought the phone back was to buy an external battery pack and just plug that in.

The BT bracelet I received would not pair using ""0000"" or ""1234"" as the PIN, per the instruction sheet.

Then I saw the 900 . . . I lusted after it, BAD. I decided that it was worth insulting my gift-giver and ordered the phone.And now, with SkyDrive, even if I lose my phone, I don't lose all my files. When I activated my new 900, everything from my 700 was automatically there! OMG - I LOVE IT. I would be lost without Nokia Maps and Nokia Drive. Both apps work so much better than my old GPS.The screen is unbelievably bright with great contrast. Videos are beautiful on this screen. Camera is great, the panoramic stitching is amazing.This phone is great for the smart-phone newbie or the smart-phone junkie. It really has something for everyone. And the number of useful apps seems to be growing rapidly. I really can't say enough about this phone.",1884,0 +1885,"Durable Headset for Home Office + +Been using this headset for about 23 months now and it is one of the most valuable purchases I've made here at Amazon.Strengths:- very durable and can withstand daily use and abuse- over the head or over the ear, two ways to wear!- mic volumeWeaknesses:- 2.5 mm jack. Although this type is used commonly in communication devices, more recently 3.5 mm jacks are now used such as in iPhone and in every Android device I know. Just buy a converter and this is a non-issue!Comfort:This particular piece of hardware can be worn over the ear or over the head. I liked wearing it over the head better just because it feels more secure. The ear piece have a round cushion that fits gently over the ear. The cable length is good 4 feet - just right so you can hang the phone on your belt or place it inside your pocket and you can still use the headset with a straight back.Durability:I've been using this product for about 23 months, and it's withstand being dropped, dragged, sat upon and getting hooked for most times. You can be sure of this product as I've read on one review it lasted 6 years. Pretty sturdy for a headset that costs less than 30 dollars.Sound Quality:Better sound quality than the headset provided by blackberry, iPod or my Droid. You should be able to hear the people on the other end clearly with no issues. I think only my Bose headphones are ahead.Microphone Quality:I've no issues with the quality of the noise cancelling microphone. The people at the other end of the line are able to hear me as I could hear them. You are also able to control the mic volume through the built in control on the jack.As a consultant who works from home, I'm always tied to my phone - for hours. This headset has helped me go through those long hour meetings without having to lift my hand to hold the phone or straining my neck to keep the phone from falling off my shoulder.",1885,0 +1886,"Its a five$ phone + +Works great has a 3.5mm head phone jack a big plus in this category.

Those types always fall after a week of uses. I personally do not like to attach anything on my dash since its got some residue problem. I tried this Koomus Air Vent mount and this one was the one I was looking for! It grabs my iphone 5C perfectly and it was very easy to use.

I completely rely on customer reviews for purchases like this one, and I was not disappointed. Yes, the instructions are laughable. Fortunately, you don't really need them. You just plug it in, position the poly bag, and press down the handle. A little red light comes on for about 2 seconds. When the red light goes off, lift up the handle, and -- voila!For some reason I thought the machine would get really hot. Nope, not at all. When the handle is up and it's not in use, it's completely cool. I also thought it would take the machine a few minutes to warm up. Nope. Just plug it it, and it's ready.I bought replacement parts at the same time that I bought the sealer, just in case. No need. The machine comes with a set of replacement parts. Plus, I've already used the machine to seal about 200 bags, and there doesn't appear to be any wear whatsoever.I don't usually take the time to write reviews, but in this case, I felt it was worth my time in case someone else out there is in the same position that I was a few weeks ago.",1891,0 +1892,"Like the phone, but some negatives + +This phone is fantastic for the price! The only cons are the call quality isn't as good as expected. It doesn't drop calls, but sometimes I sound muffled to the person I'm talking to. If I hold it on my right shoulder, the caller says I sound like I'm far away. The only other problem is battery life. I researched many phones before I purchased this one, and basically most smart phones for this price and higher don't have fantastic battery life. I can use it all day, talking, browsing, and texting. I usually charge it overnight, which is typical.The screen looks fantastic, and I haven't had a problem loading any sites or videos. Has a 4G connection, which works great. It's fast and looks great.The camera is a phone camera; it doesn't take amazing pictures. It works for an everyday camera. Daytime pictures look good. It doesn't, however, take good pictures in the dark.For the price, this phone was worth it. I use it on Straight Talk's sim program, and haven't had any problems with connections.

I like the smoke better (just my personal taste) My wife noticed I went from green to the smoke and asked how many cases I was going to buy.

The Kindle is a little unstable when propped up in the vertical mode and it will only stay up in the lowest angle. The magnets keep the cover closed, though it has to be in the right position, something that could be avoided with two more magnets. Not a real concern, overall I love the cover, keyboard and functionality.",1894,0 +1895,"Product is excellent, process is a bit of a challenge + +The iCrack product is excellent. I liked the tool kit, and especially the very helpful online video of the repair. I had no significant problems doing the repair, and it worked the first time! I also appreciate their including a "bumper" style case for the phone so this won't happen again! But, I must say, that putting a new screen in an iPhone 4 is an arduous task - and I consider myself to be an above-average "handyman". That isn't iCracked's fault, they've done everything they could to make it easy, the difficulties are due to the iPhone's design itself. To replace the screen, you basically completely disemble the iPhone, which involves lots and lots of small parts. Before you decide to do this, I recommend that you go to iCracked's web site and watch the video of how it is done. Then, if you still want to do it yourself, by all means buy this kit from iCracked.",1895,0 +1896,"Can do more stuff, longer + +I love my HTC Rezound phone. It's my first smartphone. It was very disappointing having the batterydepleted after a few hours. Recharging every 4-6 hours wasn't convenient. There were other choices foran extended life battery, after checking reviews I chose this one. I am very pleased. I can even use my mobile hotspot for short online sessions without plugging it in or having to go on charge. At first I thought it made my phone too heavy, but I quickly got used to the weight and it is no longer an issue. I play music, read on Kindle, do Facebook, keep notes, use mobile web....really every function, and this battery really lasts. I can stretch the recharge to two days, depending how the usage goes.

It fits snugly and won't pop off, and has a slight lip at the front edge to protect the screen from face-first falls. The ""frosting"" that gives this case its transparency is on the inner surface of the case, so the exterior is slippery (good for going in and out of your pockets) but it gets smudgy. The only reason this is a 3-star case is that it has significant yellowish discoloration after only a few months. This isn't dirt on the case, the actual plastic is changing colors.",1899,1 +1900,"Better than I was expecting + +I was looking for a mount for my iphone that did two major things - gave me full flexibility as to the position of the phone, and was simple to get the phone in and out of, even with a case. The Kensington Windshield mount meets both of these goals very well. The windshield mount sticks very securely; it has yet to fall off. The suction cup included with my TomTom navigation unit fell off several times during every trip, so this is a big improvement. Inserting the phone and removing it is dead simple - it's so easy that I am using it even for short trips when I'm not listening to music or using the navigation as taking phone calls or glancing at alerts is much easier. As already noted, the mount comes with several different rubber inserts for the bottom of the phone to aid in the amplification. I was able to find one set that fit my case fairly well, and the amplification works decently. I have no trouble hearing the phone over the radio. One niggle is that those rubber mounts don't seem too secure and I've nearly knocked them out a couple of times while putting the phone in. If you take a little bit of care in how you do this, it's not much of an issue, but it could be improved. Getting the phone out is almost too easy. I've actually twisted it out of the holder once or twice while fumbling with the volume buttons on the phone.The flexible arm is very long. This works well for me because it's mounted on the windshield and it places the phone almost flush with the front of the dashboard of the car, making it easy to read and to reach. If you plan on mounting it on your dashboard though it could be excessively tall. I tried the vent mount on both of our vehicles and could not get it to be adequately secure in either one. That's ok with me because I didn't buy it intending to use it that way, but if you are, be aware that it may or may not work for you.The fully flexible arm allows you to place the phone in any position you like, and it rotates 90 degrees left and right. The arm is only marginally stiff enough, but even in my car with stiff suspension it is stable enough to read. It seems a little better with the phone in landscape mode. Overall it would be an improvement if the arm were marginally stiffer. A nice detail is that the holder is designed to hold your charging cable when not in use. While it won't hold the oversized dock connector in my car, it still has plenty of room to connect to the phone itself.Overall this is a great product that exceeds my expectations and I am about to order a second one for our other car.",1900,0 +1901,"Not a Winner + +One of the problems with this phone is the users manual and all included printed material is in Chinese. I contacted Motorola directly and this phone was not manufactured for sale in the United States so they do not have an English version available.They have a quick start guide on their web site, it's not much help.The sound quality is bad. It does not show you the name or number when sending a text. Keys are hard to see.One aggravation after another with this phone, ( a manual to reference might of been some help ).Returned the Phone.",1901,0 +1902,"Works great!!!!!!!!!!! + +I was a little skeptical about purchasing a case for my precious iPhone that I wasn't able to see in person first or that was costing me so little. Being that the LifeProof cases are pretty expensive, I expected anything 'as good' to be expensive as well.I read all the reviews and decided to spend the $4.99 and take a chance, knowing I could test the case out WITHOUT my phone being inside first. When my order came, it was a little different that I expected. It's 100% plastic (I thought it was rubber), and the clasps look and feel a BIT flimsy.Well, I checked to make sure my iPhone fit inside (and it fits WITH my Otterbox case on, which is a major plus for me). Then I did a test with paper towels. I filled the inside of the case with paper towels and submerged it in water. Even had it held down with a weight for about 20 minutes. No bubbles, no leaking at all. Paper towels are 100% dry.Overall, I'm extremely happy to have taken the plunge and bought this case. It's true what they say, more expensive things aren't always better. If you're having second thoughts, take it from me and BUY THIS CASE. It will do the job fine. Trust me, my iPhone is pretty new to me, and the last thing I wanted to do is ruin such an expensive phone!!Also, I bought mine from the seller Importer520, if that helps anyone. Great seller, and my case was exactly as described with two clear sides.",1902,0 +1903,"Amazing phone! + +I switched to this Windows Phone from an iPhone 4 and love it! At first I wasn't sure since phones have come a long way since I got my iPhone two years ago. I also had two Androids (the Galaxy Note and Galaxy S3) after the iPhone but returned it and went back to Windows. Here are my reasons why I switched.Screen size: The iPhone seems so tiny after using other phones. I know new ones are coming out but why wait? Also, who knows exactly what the new iPhone will be like. The 4.3 inch screen on the Nokia Lumia 900 was perfect. Large enough to enjoy for videos (YouTube and Netflix) but not too large as with the Note. The stats for the resolution are not as dazzling the in person, the screen is clear and beautiful.Operating system: Beautiful to look at and easy to use. Android is not what I would call intuitive. Customizable yes, but kinda hard to use. I know people will say I should learn to use the phone better but I don't think it should require that much effort. With the iPhone, use is as simple as can be. The Windows Phone is just as simple. Set up is a completed in seconds. I love the live tiles, especially the Me and People tiles. The integration with social media is far better than anything on Android or Apple.Build quality: The iPhone was wonderful quality. No complaints there. the look has become a bit stale to me over the past few years though. Plus, you must use a case to protect it. The Lumia 900 is just as nice of built but with a fresher look to it. It is also much more durable. I don't even use a case with it. The black coloring goes through the case completely making scratches hard to see. The Android phones I had were both Samsung and made of plastic. They felt like plastic too. I was terrified to drop them in a way I would never be with an iPhone or the Lumia 900.The main drawback is the lack of apps. Still, there are over 100,000 apps and more all the time. A few are missing like Pandora but I'm OK with using I Heart Radio instead. The number of apps is deceiving anyway. There must be thousands of fart apps for Android.The price of this phone has been dropped to only $49. It is an absolute steal for that price.",1903,0 +1904,"Buyer Beware + +Buyers beware!!

I am very satisfied with this phone. The camera is great on it, it has a flash and gives great quality photos, the screen is very responsive and what I like the most is that it has a huge screen compared to the other phones I've had for the same price. The screen is the same size as a Samsung Galaxy 2. The software is current too. I paid 130 bucks for this and it's worth every penny.I will never get a iPhone since they have nothing more to offer than a name.

But too thick and heavy! + +I was looking for an iPhone 4 case that could also double as a wallet. The concept intrigued me for a while. When I found this case, the design appealed to me as clean-looking, functional, protective, and simple. I also liked that the cards and cash would stowe away unseen in the hidden compartment, and stay out of the way until needed. Judging by the pictures, I did have some reservations that the case might be too big, but decided to give it a try.After receiving the case and installing on my phone, I was immediately disappointed by how thick and heavy it was. It adds a lot of bulk and weight to the iPhone 4! To give you an idea, it is thicker than two iphone 4's stacked on top of each other.Does it protect the phone?

I firmly beleive Microsoft has a winner with the new Windows Phone 7 Operating System. I have used iPhone 3G and 4, Nokia E71, and Blackberry. This phone is the best of all of them.The Interface is very intuitive, and so easy to use that I doubt anyone needs to read a manual. Before I even finalized my transaction at the AT&T; Store I had three corporate email accounts and my yahoo acount on the phone and most of the syncing complete.The messaging, text and email, is easy to use. Email supports HTML messages. Text Messaging is threaded.My favorite feature of them all is the on-screen keyboard. It is easy for my fat fingers to use. I can never get my wife's iPhone to work properly, while the FOcus worked great from the beginning. Even better, the predictive text is amazing.The internet browser is the best I've used. You have the choice of automatically loading the desktop version of a site or the mobile version. It does not support flash though.The phone's contact integration is wonderful. It seamlessly and optionally integrates the contacts from all of my sources, corporate email, personal email, facebook, microsoft live, etc.The call quality is great. No dropped calls yet.The camera is pretty nice, 5MP and HD Video Capture. The captured images seem to be on par with my wife's iPhone 4. It has a nice feature to automatically sync your photos over the air with any number of online photo sites.The Marketplace for apps is still in its infancy, but one can definitely see the potential. The Facebook application is great. The Weather Channel app is a must too. I am looking forward to the big boys to complete adding their apps to the marketplace. The other thing to consider is that there are more Windows .Net Software Developers than any other framework out there.

This particular set is one of the most elegant in appearance and construction. The leather is butter soft and the style is comfortable for about three hours, which is the maximum I can usually wear this style of headphone before it starts becoming uncomfortable. One thing that I found a problem was that the headset tends to slip if I am moving around and bend forward. I don't think I would take these on active walks.The ear pieces are designed to fold outward when the headphones are to be stored. This reduces the silhouette and allows them to fit neatly into the provided carrying case which can slip into a backpack or computer case. I honestly cannot tell if the case is leather or not. That impresses me.The sound itself is good. I've admitted elsewhere that I am not an audiophile, but I didn't notice any distortion and this is actually my current favorite headset.Of course the headset is fine with my old 5th Gen iPod classic, but it also does well with my 4th gen iPhone.

I had entire conversations in loud bars. This Bluetooth has never turned off and has never had to be repaired with phone (unlike others above). I live in a 4 story house with Master bedroom on the top floor and I made my way to the basement (4 floors below) and went to the patio. It was a little staticky BUT IT WORKED and DID NOT DROP. I can easily make it to the kitchen level with no issues. NONE. Thats 3 floors through walls and concrete. Oh and the music/media sound is phenomenal.

I am a huge fan of Amazon's selection of items as well as the customer service. Amazon Wireless... not so much. I will never buy from Amazon Wireless again and will highly recommend people to consider my experience if they so choose too.A few weeks ago, my ancient Galaxy S completely crapped on me and I was not able to get any service at all. No worries though, I was within my ""new every two"" with Verizon and decided to do a little phone shopping. I came across Amazon Wireless and found the new Droid Razr Maxx HD was much cheaper through them. It was only $99 compared to Verizon's price of $299. Plus it had two day shipping for free! Yay!I ordered my phone on Feb 14 and the expected delivery was Feb 19, 2013 (it was over a weekend and a holiday). No big deal, I can go without a phone for 5 days. I anticipated my phone to have already arrived by the 20th but it had not. I checked online and the currier company called Lasership listed it as being dropped off at my front door on the 18th, which was Presidents Day. I checked the bushes, the neighbors, even checked the entire block. No sign of it anywhere. Just some gee whiz info-I get a package sent to my home about every other day, and have NEVER had any issues with theft or shipping so this was a new experience. Actually I had order some new Droid phone stuff via Amazon and all of those packages arrived on time and right at my front door!I called Amazon Wireless to get some answers. I don't call them often but when I do, they are usually very receptive and super awesome! But this time, not so much! My customer service representative tells me there is nothing she can do but send me directions on how to file a police report and how to submit my claim through Amazon. She said it was a ""simple process"". I asked to speak with the manager. The manager told me the same thing and even offered other solutions like going to buy a pre-paid cellular device in the interim. She said it generally takes 3-4 business days after I fax in my completed police report for Amazon to process the replacement or issue a refund. If a replacement was chosen, it would be sent to me via overnight shipment. If cellular phones, that are linked to my personal Verizon contract, are such a valuable commodity that I would need to file a police report for a MIA (Missing In Action) package, then why wouldn't the company or Amazon allow me to opt for confirmation delivery? She said she would take my suggestion and pass it forward. Great. So I call Verizon. Maybe I can just go ahead and get a phone for the $299 deal and wait for the refund. Unfortunately, Verizon shows my ""new every two"" to be expired because I've already purchased a phone and if I wanted to purchase a new device, it would cost me $699. Just Awesome.So on the 20th, I went online and filed a police report through my local police department. On the evening of the 21st, I receive an email from the police department stating I would need to pick up my report in person across town or I could mail a $10 check and once it cleared, they would snail mail me my report. Considering this is day 8 of no handheld, portable technology of any kind, I opted to go pick it up on the 22nd. Since the office hours of my police department are during my normal work day, I had to take 3 hours of annual vacation time. I make over $50/hour after taxes, so let's just estimate that to be a $150 loss. I live in the DC area so during rush hour traffic, 3 hours of leeway is very reasonable. Total mileage from my work, to the police department, to my home was 48 miles. Right now, gas is $4.11/Gal so let's average that to $12. Plus, anywhere in DC means parking is a paid amenity so there was an additional $4 parking fee. Then once I waited the 1 hour wait for a copy of my police report, they charged me $10 for it. Since Amazon will not take my police report via electronic copy (they request faxes only, SERIOUSLY???) AND since there is not a toll free 1-800 fax number, I had to pay $8 for the fax at a local package shop. So what's the magic number here?? $283 spent on a mistake Amazon and its currier made plus the price of the phone. Honestly, for the $16 difference, I would have gladly picked up my phone from the Verizon store itself and had the luxury of making a phone call immediately!Now my part is done and it's all in Amazon's hands. I'm going on day 9 (and its Friday, go figure!!) without a cellular device. Best case scenario is I get my phone next Thursday, or Amazon will wait to process my request later next week and I'll have to wait another 7 days for a phone.All in all, if I could give this whole experience a negative in stars, I WOULD!!!",1918,1 +1919,"Bluetooth headset + +Because the description said LG but when I received it noticed it was a no name brand very very disappointed product was very poor",1919,0 +1920,"Scam + +The stylus I received had already been scratched up.

Not worth the price.The case itself was typical - the case is about the image, not protection.",1921,0 +1922,"Great Phone With Stunning Display + +HTC is one of the leaders when it comes to fit and finish and the DROID DNA is no exception. The One X was already one of the most superior phones in terms of quality, but somehow they were able to step it up. It has a similar polycarbonate back, but it sports more of a soft rubbery touch. The one downside is that it's a fingerprint and smudge magnet. It's almost impossible to keep it smudge free, but hey, who plans on staring at the back of their phone all day? The rubberized feel is non slippery and gives you a fantastic grip.It's not the thinnest phone in the world because at the highest point it's 9.73mm, but it still feels pretty thin because of the rounded back. The edges are only 4mm thick, but it expands to the center where it hits 9.73mm. It kind of feels like a Hershey's candy bar. That's not a bad thing because when you hold the phone, you place your fingers at the sides which is the thinnest part, while the thickest part rests in your palm and fits perfectly. I know it's a cliche, but it really does feel great in the hand considering it has a whopping 5-inch display. The Samsung Galaxy Note II sports a 5.5-inch display, but is so much bigger when comparing the two. When comparing it to the One X, it's about the same width, but it""s a little taller. My hands are on the smaller side and I had no issues with the size whatsoever. I'm starting to wonder if 5-inches is the new sweet spot.DESIGN:What really makes the DROID DNA a thing of beauty is the Lamborghini-inspired aluminum red grill that you will find along the right and left sides. Most manufacturers would have gone with the color silver, but HTC has used red a lot in the past, and it makes the perfect accent on a black phone. You will also find a similar red accent around the 8MP rear camera lens. Overall, the DROID DNA has an EVO type of look, but more polished.As with most HTC phones, you will find the power button at the top, but this time it sits in the middle. To the left of it is the microphone jack and the SIM slot is to it's right. Along the right side towards the top you will find the volume rocker that sports the same red color as the aluminum red grill. The microUSB port is usually found on the left side on HTC phones, but they finally decided to move it to the bottom, which is the better place. Unfortunately they put a cover on it, which is a little annoying. It's kind of a pain to put back in place, but I guess if you're going to include it, you might as well make it a tight fit. They decided to include the cover because the phone is splash resistant.Another nice addition is the notification light on the back to the left of the camera lens. It serves two purposes. It lights up for your notifications, but is also lights up when taking a picture.You won't find a microSD slot for expanding storage, which is a downer for some folks. You get 16GB of storage, which is more than enough for the average user. The other negative is that it's a unibody design, so you won't be able to remove the battery. This could be a deal breaker for some, but more on that later.In terms of fit and finish, you won't find a better phone than the DROID DNA. The only other phones that are in the same ballpark is the DROID RAZR HD / RAZR MAXX HD and the iPhone 5.HARDWARE:If you're going to make a high quality phone, you need to back it up with hardware, and HTC did just that. It packs a 5-inch (1920 x 1080) Super LCD 3 display at 440ppi, a 1.5GHz quad-core Snapdragon S4 Pro CPU, 2GB of RAM, an 8MP rear camera with ImageSense, 2.1MP front facing camera with an 88 degree wide angle lens, 16GB of internal storage, 2020mAh battery, NFC, 4G LTE with worldwide GSM capability, and Beats Audio.PERFORMANCE:I already had a chance to try out the Snapdragon S4 Pro on the LG Optimus G so I already had a good idea what to expect. I am happy to report that Sense 4+ doesn't in any way degrade the performance of the quad-core. Coupled with Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, it's blazing fast. It seriously shreds anything you want to throw at it. I know many of you are benchmark fans so I did the obligatory AnTuTu which came in at 14,544. That's considerably higher than the Optimus G's 11.213. Seriously, I'm not sure who can tell the difference, but if you crave power, the DROID DNA will satisfy everything you desire.DISPLAY:HTC already had the finest display ever with the One X so what could they possibly do for an encore? The One X sported a Super LCD 2 display at 720p, and the DROID DNA is now a Super LCD 3 at 1080p. It sports 440ppi which is higher than your TV. Some may say it's overkill for a phone, but that's nonsense. It truly is breathtaking as the colors are vibrant, blacks are deep, and everything just pops out at you. As you would expect, the viewing angles are amazing and it performs very well in sunlight. Now if you're familiar with the One X, you will probably find this display to be only marginally better, but it's still an improvement. So to recap: HTC now has the two best displays ever on a smartphone. Not bad at all.SPEAKERS:As with all the latest HTC phones, the audio is enhanced with Beats. On top of that, HTC included two amplifiers in the phone. The microphone jack gets its own dedicated 2.55 volt amplifier and the other pushes the rear speaker. This helps minimize distortion at higher volumes. I think HTC is a little underrated when it comes to sound quality. The Beats partnership has always been considered a ""marketing"" gimmick, but I would rather have it on my phone than not.BATTERY:No matter how amazing a phone is, there always seems to be something holding it from being perfect, and the battery just might be the DNA's Achilles heel. I knew going into this review that it was the key, so I spent a considerable amount of time analyzing it. A 1080p screen is going to take its toll on any battery, and a 2020mAh battery is average based on today's standards. HTC reps seemed confident that the Snapdragon S4 Pro is efficient enough to make it work. Unfortunately it's not the case, but it's not complete doom and gloom. It's not like it's as bad as the Verizon Galaxy Nexus, but there are a number of phones that are better. My main test is to run continuous video while connected to 4G LTE, while the display is set at 2/3 brightness, GPS on, WiFi on (not connected), and Bluetooth on (not connected). It yielded 6 hours and 11 minutes. In comparing it to some of the latest phones that I did the same test on, it didn't fare too well:Motorola ATRIX HD - 4 hours 45 min (this was really bad)Sony Xperia Ion - 6 hoursDROID DNA - 6 hours 11 minutesAT&T; HTC One X - 7 hoursSprint LG Optimus G - 7 hours 30 minDROID Incredible 4G LTE - 7 hours 45 minDROID RAZR M - 8 hoursAT&T; LG Optimus G - 8 hoursSamsung Galaxy Note II - 9 hours 30 minDROID RAZR HD - About 10 hoursDROID RAZR MAXX HD - 13 hours 30 minSo what does this mean in terms of daily use? With moderate use, you should get about double the times you get in the rundown tests and sometimes more than that with the better performing phones. I was able to get 13 hours while connected to 4G LTE full time, which isn't great, but after living with the Verizon Galaxy Nexus for the past year, it's an improvement. I also tried it while connected to WiFi 90% of the time, and I was able to get a little over 14 hours with about 15% to spare. I then let it sit idle without turning on the display for about 6 hours and it had 4% left. So yes, it made it to 20 hours, which isn't bad, but 6 hours of it was idle time.Now obviously the display is the biggest culprit here, and all of my tests are done at 2/3 brightness. Some may consider that high, but I like to run tests that are at a level that people would like to see their phone set at with the option of scaling it back. I'm going to see how things go with the display at around 40% brightness and update my results.Update 1: I'm now getting about 17 hours of life while connected to 4G LTE full time with the display at about 50%. This is with moderate usage and is an improvement over what I got during the review process. It's always been assumed that batteries get better after a few charges, and I have never found this to be the case with most phones. With this particular phone, it really has made a difference. It might have something to do with the Snapdragon S4 Pro, but either way, it's nice to see an improvement.The bottom line is that the battery is certainly not the main selling point of the DROID DNA, but depending on your situation, it's not too bad if you are able to charge it regularly. For example, I always have a charger in my car and the plus side is this phone is compatible with Qi wireless chargers. There will be an accessory available, but it's also compatible with other 3rd party pads. While in the office, you can conveniently give it a little extra juice. Unfortunately, if you're a hardcore traveler, this phone might not be for you since you won't be able to swap batteries. If there is one thing I am disappointed in with the DNA, it's the battery, but based on my lifestyle, it's not a deal breaker for me.SOFTWARE:The DROID DNA features the latest version of Sense, which is 4+ on top of Android 4.1.1 Jelly Bean. It's not the latest version of Android, but it should satisfy most people. Sense 4+ hasn't changed all that much from what we saw on the One X and One S, but there are some differences. Navigating between home screens now has the circular carousel that was found in Sense 3, but thankfully it doesn't have the 100 mph spinning animation. The biggest improvement is the keyboard. I hated the Sense keyboard, and now it's more like the keyboards you see on other Android phones. The big change is the numbers/symbol key is to the bottom left instead of the bottom right, which makes a big difference. Other changes are more subtle like more refined fonts and icons, along with some changes to the camera app. Of course you will also get the newer stock Android features like Google Now, expanded notifications, and easier widget placement on home screens. Sense isn't something I desire on a phone, but it's livable when you consider what this phone offers.As far as running certain apps, such as games, you could run into a problem with the display and compatibility. Brad Molen from Engadget found issues with Need For Speed: Most Wanted and Angry Birds. This is probably due to the display ratio and some games not supporting it. It's probably a temporary issue since more and more phones will be released with similar displays in the near future. As with many of the newer phones, it's expected that a few apps might need to be updated.As far as bloatware goes, you will find your usual suspects, but they also included a new Amazon app suite. It's similar to the Nexus 7 media widget that shows your recent purchases of books, magazines, and videos. If you are hooked into Amazon, you might appreciate it, otherwise it's just one more annoying carrier add on.CAMERA:In my opinion, the One X has the best camera in a smartphone, so I was expecting the same with the DNA. It has the same F/2.0 aperture lens along with ImageSense. I found the pictures to be as good, but no better than the One X. There is at least one improvement with the DNA that I don't believe the One X has, and that's the flash. There are now five levels of brightness for the flash depending on the surroundings. You will also find some differences in the app itself. Some of the menus look a little different, but nothing too drastic. You can change settings for ISO, white balance, shutter, etc., but you can't save them.CLOSING:I consider myself lucky that I get to review a lot of different phones, but on the flip side, it can be a little boring since there are so many. Only a few phones really excite me, and I have to say that HTC really excelled this year. Looking back at 2012, I would say I thoroughly enjoyed reviewing the One X and the DROID DNA over any other phone. With that said, is the DROID DNA the ultimate DROID? HTC delivers in just about every category: build quality, display, power, and the camera. Notice how I said ""just about""? For me, the battery is the only issue. If it could have had either the DROID RAZR HD or DROID RAZR HD MAXX battery, it would truly be complete, but nowadays it seems as though there is always going to be something missing. For some of you, the lack of a microSD slot is enough to not call this the ultimate DROID, but 16GB is plenty for the average person. Since I am just about 100% in the cloud, it's plenty for me. As I mentioned earlier, the battery isn't a deal breaker for me based on my lifestyle, but because of it, I can't call it the ultimate DROID or even the ultimate smartphone for that matter. What I can say about the DROID DNA is the same as what I said about the One X when I reviewed it: ""This is the best Android phone hands down."" So it's not the ultimate, but it's oh so close, and I will highly recommend it to anyone that tells me they have $200 to spend on their next smartphone.",1922,0 +1923,"i love it + +it arrived sooner than expected i love it it so cute and adorable its a bit big for my hands and to kee in my pockets but i get a lot of compliments on it and im very satisfied especialy since it was such a low price but very good quality",1923,0 +1924,"Pow'R-Up you'll really got the power you'll won't be disappointed + +I drained my iPhone 5s down to 10%, then used the Pow'R- Up mini to recharge it to 100%.

I also don't feel the need to use the holster that came with the case though it is a very good holster. One little note, when you pull your lightning cord from the Iphone 5, please make sure the case flap that protects this port is out of the way.FYI, I had bought a cheapo case from a national electronics retailer hoping that it would do the trick. Actually it costs the same as this one, but was very limited and could not really protect the phone from any kind of drop. Then I bought another case--the Ballistic LS0955-M355 Ballistic LS Smooth--from Ballistic itself and found out that (a) Ballistic charges list prices from their website and you end up paying an exorbitant price for an inferior product. The Ballistic LS0955-M355 Ballistic LS Smooth offers no protection from a drop when the bottom of your phone hits an obstacle because the silicon stuff is too loose and just pushes right out of the way of any kind of obstacle your phone may hit.I returned that one and bought this one which I am evaluating--the Ballistic SX0945-M355 SZG Maxx and am absolutely delighted with my purchase. It is well designed and well thought through. It is guaranteed to take a 15 foot drop without any problems, and all the Iphone 5 ports, buttons, cameras, speakers are easily accessible without any problem whatsoever.",1953,0 +1954,"Meh, it's ok. + +It's very study, pretty and colorful. However it smelled like gasoline, it was so bad that I had to take the rubber part off and set it outside to air out. Hopefully the smell will wear off soon and I will be able to use it.",1954,0 +1955,"Solid all around performer + +The Blackberry 8320 builds upon the popular Curve with the addition of WIFI and the ability to use both data and voice over WIFI. This is a bonus for those of us located slightly outside of the optimal coverage range for T-Mobile.In addition, if you travel overseas and are within range of a WIFI hotspot, you'll be able to user your 8320 without any extra roaming or International fees (International fees always apply if you call International numbers - however you could use this phone overseas to call home without any added costs).Some of the things I like about this phone:1. The camera takes nice pictures and I've used it as a substitute for my regular digital camera. As with all cell phone cameras, the best quality is when you take a picture in direct sunlight. I upload the photos via email to my flikr account.2. RSS reader built into the web browser3. Spell checker now built into OS (just remember to correct any mis-spellings before you holster the device or the next time you look at your Blackberry you may see it reporting a spelling error and asking if you want to still send the email -- which you thought you sent hours ago)Some of the things I dislike:1. Blackberry devices still do not have the ability to display fully formatted html emails2. The Blackberry devices are now being trickled out with selective features. For example, this model doesn't have GPS but does have WIFI. It's as if Blackberry is milking the product line for all it's worth -- and trying to get people to make small incremental upgrades to handsets as features are trickled out.3. I've had problems on the media player when I used an 8300 (From ATT). I haven't fully tested this one yet. On my other Curve, the media player would not recognize all the mp3 songs I loaded. Now you might suggest this is a problem with song tags (and maybe you're right) - but the Curve was the only device which could not read the mp3 information (Tip: If your Curve exhibits the same behavior - browse for data files instead of using the search by artist/title/etc.)Overall this is a very solid device. Battery life has been about a day which I find quite acceptable.",1955,0 +1956,"Forget about N80 for a while. + +I got this unlocked phone 2 weeks ago, and I LOVE it. To be honest, I don't like use the bluetooth headset for calling which is really weird like I'm talking to nobody in the street. So, I don't have any problem related to the bluetooth link.I have to say, this is the best Nokia I've ever had because the battery cover is really tight! No kidding, I hate the Nokias I had mostly because of the slack back cover. I really HATE it. But this one is GOOD.Frankly, I was looking forward the N80 which had been shaped as the flagship of Nokia this year. But, it keeps unpublished, so I got this one. four hundred buck price seems a little overpriced partly because it is just a updated version of 6630. BUT, this is a really well craft phone.The camera slide cover is one of the most wanted design for all camera phones, but only very few models got it. It is the best way to protect, and it works fantastic on this phone.However, the keyboard set is a pain in the ass. The arrange is so tight that I can barely hold this 400 buck baby tight enough when I'm typing. It loooks good though.The battery life problem has been imporved, but it is definitely not good enough. But, it is better than N71, and much better than any Samsung.I hate to say this but I guess Nokia is so mean to its customers. Several pre-installed softwares and games need to be registered (Paid) after purchasing. I'm not saying I shouldn't pay what I got, but I just consider that Nokia should be in charge of those.The menu set is also a problem that some of the most used functions have been hidden inside the folders rather than the main menu, like the call history, even though it can be moved there. But, i'm just uncomfortable with that.last but not least, the PC Suite is still so stupid that occupies a lot of space and ram but works like a giant useless idiot.Finally, this is a fantastic phone. The only problem is, it's a bit pricy after all.

A couple of other notes: the documentation included with the phone is awful, especially in terms of customizing ringers and wallpaper (obviously excluded intentionally with the intent of having customers buy these things from the Sprint Store installed on the phone). Ringers can be added by placing WAV or MIDI files in the My Computer\Mobile Device\My Smartphone\Storage\Application Data\Sounds directory using Windows Explorer on Windows XP.

I’ve tested it with iPhone 4S, iPhone 5S, and Samsung Galaxy S3, and it worked as advertised with all of them. Each one of those phones was securely fastened to the mount for duration of the testing. The mount also allowed for an easy access to all of the said phones ports and buttons, although you really don't want to fiddle with those while driving.

No way to slide it it even with a small case, so expect to take your case off each time. Alternative: Get this same product for a Samsung Galaxy S4 or larger (same price) and you get more space. Wish I had done that. However....2. The material absorbs sweat, causes a rash if on too long, and the moisture seeps into the phone pouch. Recommendation: Get one of those Ziploc ""Snack"" bags and put your phone in that first. Then slide it into this thing so your phone at least doesn't get wet. Also, slice open a Ziploc sandwich bag or larger so you have a plastic circle to slide your arm through. Put that in position first and then wrap this thing around it. Might help, might not, but at least this thing won't be absorbing your sweat as much.3. All that said, for $3 it's an OK made product I'd be willing to throw away and replace after awhile. Quality isn't great, but it will work if you can handle the sweat and rash issue. Suggestion: Buy a couple at this price, but get the larger phone format version to accommodate your phone and case.

Everything about this new design is improved.The new ERA is smaller, lighter, easier to use, and even has a bit better noise rejection and voice clarity. One of the most noticeable design changes is the excellent ear piece -- a super comfortable, clear silicone, hollow design that is much more secure in the ear. This is such a significant design improvement that I bought an additional ERA model for myself. For those of us who actually enjoy talking to people on the phone, this is one of those rare products that makes us smile every time we use it.Before purchasing this new model, like most of us I read the reviews first... and on the whole, quite positive.

I got this phone at target and the only phone up was $70 more. I figured it couldn't be THAT bad---I was wrong. When I first saw it in the store I thought it looked kinda cheap, I mean it's bigger than it needs to be...far from sleek. Also, though the camera might have the potential to take great pics, the location of the camera on the phone makes it hard to take pics because the camera is generally where you'd hold the phone. My best shot at taking pics with this is to hold it sideways..the conventional position is just too hard.The sound quality is also pretty bad. I purchased the same ring tones I had on my previous phones...they just didn't sound the same on this. Music on this sounds like you're listening to it on a cheap AM radio.For the record, I know several people that have switched over to boost & virgin mobile(both sprint), and everyone I know that's joined either program has been disappointed with the phones.

I didn't want a phone with a $30/month data plan because I'm always near a computer when I need one. So I'm using the Karma primarily as a phone with the addition of an unlimited text plan. I've had the phone for two weeks, so these are just my first impressions.(1) Call quality is excellent. I even hear my Mom, who's calling from an awful Samsung phone, clearly and she no longer asks me to repeat what I'm saying like I did with my old Nokia 6820 (which did have pretty good call quality). My friends remark that I sound like I'm calling from a landline, even when I'm walking on a busy street.(2) Call talk time is good. I've talked for nearly 3 hours between charges and still had juice left in the battery. Overall, I'm charging my phone about once every 4 days and I'm burning about 900 minutes/month.(3) Camera is decent. While it's not nearly as good as my 8MP Nikon camera, it is good enough for taking photos to upload to Facebook.(4) Voice recorder works well.(5) Sync'ing through MPT to my Outlook works like a dream...except for one small problem...meeting alert tones always get converted to ""Piano"". (The Alarm also defaults to ""Piano"") I've searched through every menu, been on every forum, all to no avail. You can individually change the alert to something else, meeting by meeting, but I have tons of meetings that change weekly. (Note: MPT5.0 will automatically update to 5.2x when you install it on your PC so it is compatible with the Karma. Also, MPT5.0 comes with the sync cables that you'll need to sync and charge from USB)(6) Texting is fast. It's zero lag...I type fast and it appears real-time. Sending, deleting, etc. is also quite speedy. The keyboard is easy for my big thumbs to type on. It's been a glitch free experience.The screen is bright and easy to see in daylight, but it's resolution is not what an iPhone offers. I would not want to browse the web on the Karma. And although you have threaded text conversation support, it's hard to see much threading with just four lines of text occupying the entire screen. At least the text is easy to read.If you get this phone, you'll want to go to Settings > Personalize > Home Screen (a quirk in the UI provides no indication that this is actually a menu item, just highlight it and press the center button) > Launch Bar (click on center button) then choose these settings for the launch bar: Icons: Hide, 1st: Create Message, 2nd Address Book, 3rd: Calendar, 4th: My Stuff.

I don't know about everyone else, but I've been acquiring micro USB chargers for years and they're scattered throughout my house/car/office. Not being able to use any of them with my S4 while wearing this case is extremely frustrating. It means I have to carry around my Samsung OEM cable with me everywhere I go.As for the headphones, I use either Shure SE315's or Sennheiser HD280's and with this case, the plug won't fully seat into the phone so I can't get any audio. Seriously? So now I have to buy a little pigtail, or use a pair of Apple Earbuds? I don't think so.And so, I'm returning the case. Buyers beware! Many of you won't care about these problems, but some of you will and you'll want to steer clear of this case.",1996,0 +1997,"Great Phone + +I have had this phone for a little over a month now and it has worked great. Here are the highlights:Pros:-Slim design for a PDA style phone. I carry it in my front pocket along with my wallet and it doesn't seem any more bulky than my old flip phone.-Windows Mobile OS... so far so good. I synced up wirelessly to my Outlook acct. within minutes of starting the phone up. It actually receives email faster than my computer does (I also set it to sync in non work hours so it doesn't buzz all day long while I am at the computer). Excel files and PDF's open up with ease. I also set up Yahoo Messenger which I use for work within minutes.-Buttons are fairly easy to hit and the scroll wheel works great (also works as a select button when depressed).-Clear Display.-Comes with extended battery (which I have yet to use but appreciate having)-Google Maps works really well but only if you DOWNLOAD it (a must).-Fast downloads.Cons:-Unlocking the phone is a chore... Power button on top...then soft key...then star. Not very one-hand friendly.-Camera... 1.3MP of poor photography-Searching for contacts. If you search for a name beginning with ""M"" it pulls up every contact with an ""M"" in the name. Why can't it just take me to the people's names that begin with ""M""?-Some webpages are hard to navigate.I have not really used the media player nor tried it with a bluetooth headset so I can not speak to those features.The bottom line is I am happy with the phone and would recommend it. I wanted a phone that would sync up to my work email, open microsoft office attachments and run Yahoo Messenger.

They should be ashamed to put their name on it.",1998,1 +1999,"If you have a Life, this is for you! + +I've been an iPhone user since the first iPhone came out and I was never into trendy apps because I barely have time to workout let alone play with Apps on my phone for an extended period of time. I decided that the iPhone 4 would be my last iPhone since it was getting boring and the 4S just brought a software upgrade to the table in the form of Siri, which IMO could have been on the 4, instead of buying a new phone for minor upgrades.On to the review, I travel a lot and for the last 6 months have been playing with an LG Quantum phone in order to prep myself for my first WP purchase during my flights and stuff. Luckily for me Nokia released this bad boy just in time for my upgrade.This phone is everything I ever needed in a phone below I will give my pros and the 2 cons that I have about this phone.ProsOffice - This is great since now, I can read over documents that were loaded to Office 365 and even make some minor corrections and I even created a One Note checklist for my team to accomplish on the first day I received the phone.LTE - So fast and since I'm based out of New York, it's very good coverage when I'm home.People App - I can click on a contact and see my whole history with that person aside from having a lot of options to contact them. When I click on my business partner, I can see all the emails and texts they have sent me, which cuts me having to search for his emails.Zune Pass - Better than iTunes anyday.Pin Groups - I have a group of people on my team pinned to my desktop and I can see their info and im able to quickly send texts to just that group. I also have one of my family and can see their updates on Live Messenger and all that.Easy to Use - Im a computer engineer by trade but I notice that everything is very easy to use not just for me but for my wife also, whos not a tech person.Information at a glance - I can see the weather, stocks, exchange rates, all without having to open any apps.Design and build - The design is very nice and the chasis is top quality, I've already dropped my phone a couple of times and dont live in fear anymore of drops like I was with the Glass iPhone, I also dont need a tactical case, Like I did with the iPhone.Nokia Support - They gave me $100x2 for not having problems on both my phone and my Wife's, since we didnt even have that data problem. Way to go Nokia.Finally here are the Apps that I need to get work done and kill time on a flight or delay:WeatherFlowWeave - NewsreaderUSAA - Banking AppPageonce - Financial management AppAdobe ReaderKayakNokia MapsTranslatorGames - I only need them when I really have nothing to do which is rare.Call of CarlosWordamentMonopolyWordFeudCons although minor for me:No Auto rotate off optionCould use more Apps, but I knew that before purchasing so its a non issue.That's my review and I hope it can help another person like me that does not live on their phones and need a Smartphone thats fast and snappy with everything.Thanks",1999,0 +2000,"Good as new! + +Took me 15 min to replace the whole screen using the ifixt manual.

It's just beautiful and red is my favorite color. Besides appearances, it's well made, really like the zipper so I can keep the dust cloth between the case and the iPad. The iPad fits in there very securely and like thebuilt-in stand.Editing this review on September 16, 2012: I use this every day for the month since purchasing it. I love this case - there's no problem with the 'kick stand' on it - it's card board - I'm gentle with all my things - everything can be damaged if you're rough with them. Behind the new iPad, I keep the cleaning cloth and a few sheets of paper behind it - or you could put in a few business cards. It's also a 'true' red!I'm going to buy a second one - if something happens to this one over the years, I'll have a 'twin'. It's that beautiful.

The inner bumper case is well made; the cushier next level adds some drop and bump protection; the ""exoskeleton"" gives hardness and protects the corners (where the phone is most likely to hit when dropped) and the locking holster keeps everything safe and sound on your belt.This is one of the best cases I've ever seen. The only down side is that it takes a little while to take all THREE cases off (when this is necessary, as in when using some docks), but that also means the case will stay on through almost anything, which can also be a positive.I would STRONGLY recommend this product to anyone looking to keep their iPhone well protected.

I am about to order one for my husband. :)",2003,0 +2004,"Looks classy, protects from drops, low profile + +Aesthetics: I have the teal case on my white iPhone and the color combination looks very classy, yet fun. I like that they contrasted the somewhat bright teal color with the gray edging, to achieve this look. I also like that the case is translucent, allowing the Apple logo to be visible. I'm also glad the cheesy ""Belkin man"" logo is NOT on the case. ""Belkin"" is molded into the side opposite the volume buttons in a simple, low-profile classy font. The case is thin enough to not add much bulk, and allows the phone to easily slip into jeans' pockets, yet thick enough to provide good protection for the phone.Function: Volume and power buttons are functional and have a good feel. Case provides good impact protection. I've dropped this phone already about 4 times in the 4 weeks that I've had it, and the phone is in perfect condition. All ports function with OEM plugs (Lightning, headphones). I don't have the Lightning-to-30 pin adapter yet, so I don't know if that will work. I see other reviewers say that it does NOT. The only potential negative part of this case relates to the deeply recessed silent switch. The silent switch might be difficult to work if the user doesn't have fingernails of some length.Overall, I am VERY happy with this case and recommend it for those who want a low profile, classy case to provide basic impact protection and provide more grip to avoid drops.",2004,0 +2005,"Died on me within 30 days + +I bought this product after seeing all the fantastic reviews but I was disappointed when it kept disconnecting from my phone atleast 10 times a day and would never pick up every other call.

The little holes over the FaceTime camera and speaker are cut perfectly, and they'll be ever-so-misaligned with any fraction of a millimeter you're off.

Over all the phone is nice but there are a few things that are of issue.1.) The standard battery needs to be recharged often. If you have the bluetooth feature turned on it drains even quicker. The first time I used the phone the battery drained in 2 days and that is with very low talk time. The manual states that battery time will increase after the first few charges so we will see if that is true. I would like to get an extended battery but haven't seen one for sale yet.2.) Dropped calls. Not sure if it is the Cingular service but I have had more dropped calls in the first few days then I ever had with Sprint and my Samsung A620. On the plus side my signal strength is better with this phone and Cingular but that hasn't paid off in better phone calls.3.) Bluetooth- there needs to be an easier way to turn the bluetooth feature on and off. I only use it while in my bluetooth enabled Acura TL so I would like to turn it off easily when not in the car to save battery time. With this phone you have to go through several menus to get the the bluetooth off feature.On the plus side there are some things I like about the phone.1.) Quality seems very good so far.2.) Screen resolution is good and bright.3.) Bluetooth works great in my Acura TL. The signal strength and incoming caller id shows up on my car display, pretty cool.

(For the price) + +TL;DR The protector applies easily, will withstand scratches a bit more than other cheaper protectors & is perfect for its asking price.*~*~*~* First Impressions ! (08-08-13) *~*~*~*Wow ! This was super easy to apply. I just placed the protector on the phone and I didn't even have to use the card to get the bubbles out. That's truly amazing to me, because no other protector In my lifetime has done similar.I was a bit skeptical as to why this protector comes with one peel off film. Usually protectors come with two -- one to protect the adhesive side; the other to protect the protector from card scratches while applying. However, this made me more confident that the protector will put up with scratches.In the package there is a thank you card that states ""With accurate design and a surface that feels like glass ..."" They got the accurate part down, but not the ""glass feel"" in fact the surface doesn't feel that smooth. Even having used it for a while and hoping that my skin oil will make it slicker. It still doesn't feel ""glass quality"".The protector is very clear and I don't see the slight purple-green chemical look that the LG's F7 factory protector had.Anti-fingerprint is better than LG's stock protector, but it is not that great. ""Good"" is how I would describe it.I will update as the weeks go by. I hope it puts up with everyday scratches.*~*~*~* Two weeks later (08-21-13) *~*~*~*I have two hairline scratches on the screen, but overall it's putting up with scratches. I like it. For $5~$6 bucks for 3 screen protectors. It's well worth it. It still doesn't feel like glass as it advertises, but it's smooth to some extent. It no longer feels slightly rough as It did at the start.I'm glad I went with these.*~*~*~* One month later (09-10-13) *~*~*~*I placed the phone with my keys multiple times to see how the protector copes against its scratches and .. not bad *obama face*. One month and it has many scratches. But only 1 scratch is visible when my screen is on in the dark. I'm still glad I got these, but I'll be looking into the IQ shield for better protection against scratches and sunlight.*~*~* Packaging ::1 (exceptionally) large microfiber cloth.3 Screen protectors1 Apply card*~*~* Instructions :: Go to your bathroom and turn on the hot water. Some of the water evaporates and fills the room; This will cause the dust in the air to settle. Now slightly peel back the ""remove me"" film.

So far I have little idea how or why this occurs. This proceeds for any length of time and/or until multiple restarts of the phone*The battery life is poor. Any use of apps sucks the battery usage to less than a day. Skype alone will suck up the battery life in a mere 2-3 hours.*Sometimes the micro SD card stops being read. This was never an issue on my previous phone with the same card, and so I can only reason that it is a software/hardware defect.*The available flash memory is so small that few apps can actually be downloaded without an SD card to put them on, which then defeats the purpose of a smart phone. Not to mention there's no legitimate way to download larger apps, because there is no option to download APK/install files to the micro SD card instead of the phone flash storage.*Update - the screen will stop being responsive after seconds of being in cold temperatures*Update - its problems are getting worse. Messages fail to send with no information available consistently. I wish at this point I could rate it 0 stars. Waste of money.Overall, like I said, it's good for $50, but the poor quality of the software and hardware should never merit the current $75 asking price here on Amazon.",2013,0 +2014,"I'd rather quit breathing than go back to not using a bluetooth headset + +Okay maybe a little dramatic, but this is hands down the best investment ever.

I have owned the Motorola S10-HD and the Plantronics Backbeat 903+, both which have glaring, serious problems, but in different areas (The Motoroala have terrible sound and the Plantronics' Bluetooth signal cuts out when outdoors). The Nokias do not have any of these problems. The sound is really good, even when comparing them to wired headphones. They sound waay better than the Motorola (which have terrible sound) and about equal to the Plantronics (which has really good sound also), and waay better than the stock iPhone earbuds. They feel lighter and have a better fit than all of the other competitors combined. The Motorolas have too tight a fit and the Plantronics have too loose a fit (feeling on the verge of falling off). These Nokias are a better fit because they are a sturdy one-piece like the Motorolas, but are not too tight. They are also very thin around the ears so they also accommodate those wearing glasses as well. If everybody had a chance to actually compare all three Blutooth stereo headsets in person (The Nokias, the Motorolas, and the Plantronics), the result will be the same: the Nokias are superior. Really, its that clear cut when comparing the three current ""top"" Bluetooth stereo headsets out there.

At first glance, it was so many lightyears better than the free phone T-Mobile had given me that I was overjoyed. Then I noticed some flaws. I'll summarize this as a pros and cons list.PROS - Fabulous reception. The last time I had Verizon it dropped nearly all the calls at my house, so I was taking a big chance switching back because of the phone. Even with 1/2 a bar the connection quality was excellent. I heard everyone much more clearly and everyone noted that they heard me better as well. And, in NY, Verizon has a better overall coverage area, so I was happy. So far, so good.I personally liked the way this phone feels next to my face and in my hand better than either the Chocolate or the Razr, but that's a matter of personal preference. For me the deal-killer with the Chocolate was the lack of speaker phone too.I also like the way the phone book is set up. Everything seems intuitive and well thought out in general.So far, so good, but the cons are a definite annoyance:CONS - 1. Horrible battery life. This phone has a battery life like phones of 5 years ago. You need to charge every night, even on standby. Don't forget to get a car charger and keep it with you with this phone. This is probably the most disappointing thing about this phone, especially compared to the Nokias my friends have.2. Horrible voice-commanded calling. I have yet to get this to work on the first shot. I bought a family plan so my elderly mother could use this - just push a button and say ""call..."" so she could call without having to figure out how to use the phone. I'm sorry that's not going to happen with this phone.3. Iffy speakers - if you make them loud, there is a lot of distortion, but if you put them on medium it's fine.4. Mp3 disabled - this goes under the general Verizon greed issue, but if you go to Ron's review, you'll see how to enable it - and you'll get annoyed when you see right on the phone that the ""mp3 disable"" is checked off. I enabled mine, so far so good.So, if all you need is great reception definitely get this phone. This phone has the best reception of any phone I've had. Judging by other reviews, this isn't the case across the board, but my particular phone gets good reception and has excellent voice clarity on both ends.And, beware, you CANNOT port your number and still get the equipment discount with any service provider on Amazon. However, there is a plus side on the Verizon end. You don't have to get bogged down in a 2 year contract anymore with Amazon either! That was good for me because I wasn't sure about the reception issue. So, I just called and emailed everyone with my new number, which is actualy easier to memorize than the other one was. I wrote this in a review that wasn't published, so lets see if they let this one slip in to this one. If not I'm complaining, because customers should know this before deciding whether to buy.So, overall I am happy with the general things about the phone, but LG needs to address the voice command and battery issues especialy with this model before it will get 5 stars from me. I can live with any other little annoyances.",2027,0 +2028,"very impressive phone case + +I have to admit, as cheap as the price was this case is awesome.

Others say the phone had limited memory. I have found this to not be the case.Fifth, It comes with 3 screen protectors, and a white flip cover to protect the screen. It also comes with headphones and a extra battery.Sixth, I upgraded from a Galaxy S3 to this phone and have found the call quality excellent, the speakerphone works as any other phone.Seventh, It is well constructed easy to set up right out of the box and have received compliments. Most my friends could not believe I could purchase such a phone for $150.00 and be this high quality. Now they are ordering!Eighth, You would be foolish not to buy this phone. It works, looks and operates just like a Galaxy Note 2, the cases fit same.Ninth, The phone is also fast on the fly opening programs, with no if not any latency. NO CRASHES!andTenth, Buy this phone over others. In my professional view, this phone must be manufactured for the "sam" company without the name brand on it.

This review is for the 40W 5V / 8A 5-Port product. You do not need to keep track of which outlet is for iPhone, iPad or "other". They are all USB chargers and all capable of delivering the watts/amps that the iPhone and iPad needs. At 8A, you can plug in 4 iPads and charge them at full speed. If you own 5 iPads, plug them in and they'll charge too -- it will just take longer.My family is currently getting ready for a trip. I started by plugging in 2 PowerRocks, 2 Bluetooth headphones, and a Kindle. None of these devices came with a charger (only cords) so I've been using my iPad/iPhone chargers to charge them. That was annoying because I had to juggle who got to use the charger; it was also annoying because the iPad charger takes up a LOT of space on a wall outlet or power strip. It was so easy to plug everything into the Anker. In fact, I ended up charging all the iDevices on the Anker too.I absolutely love this product. I see the black is outrageously priced right now -- they must have sold out and someone is scalping -- but the white is a steal at $20.

I slip my case off before putting it in the cradle, simply because it fits the iPhone 4 perfectly with the case off. It WILL go in with the case on, but I'm afraid that it will stretch the plastic & eventually break; so, I like the case being off.I use the vent mount, simply because it's a lot more snug and I don't have to keep placing/removing the windshield mount every time I use it. My phone also doesn't ""bounce"" with the vent mount, and I drive a lot of back roads with potholes. The cradle also works better with the vent mount. For some reason, Kensington has the cradle snap into place with the vent mount a lot better than the windshield mount. The Windshield mount doesn't snap it into place, causing it to bounce for people who use that. That's the only con I have.Overall, the product works as advertised.

I realize now that the company is selling several different items under the same listing, so the reviews can be confusing and not accurate.Like many other "power users" (i.e. slaves) of their iPhones, I came to the end of the usefulness for my iPhone 5's internal battery. After lamenting on whether or not to buy some of the cheaper options available, I went with the "you get what you pay for" cliche and paid for the extra assurance that I was not getting a cheap knockoff.The battery I received had a manufacturer date only a few months from when I ordered the piece. Who knows how accurate that is, but if you're taking it at face value, I find certain comfort knowing that my battery hasn't been sitting on the shelf losing it's potential usefulness in holding a charge for my crushing of candies.After successfully opening my phone, I can confirm that all the labeling and signage match exactly to what is on the original battery in my phone. Any copycat can do this, but it gives me hope that this new battery comes from the same manufacturers as the OEM battery.The tools worked just fine for me. I was able to pry the top glass of my phone off by using the tools provided in the kit. Do some extra research around properly removing the battery. Use the clear plastic sheet under the battery to help lift it up and separate from the adhesive. That was the most challenging part of my battery replacement. After two months of use, I can make it through the whole day after heavy phone use without looking for a charger. My life is complete again!",2043,0 +2044,"Amazing product with poor reliability + +Anyone who knows the state of the industry today knows that Samsung is head of the pack in terms of features, performance, and general state of the art. Due to their extensive use of AMOLED displays they are able to make phones slimmer and more energy efficient. Samsung devices also tend to have the best GPS due to the inclusion of hybrid GLONASS/GPS chipsets and the useage of MEMS barometric altimeters. Trust me, as far as performance in all aspects you can not do better than a Samsung; perhaps that is why Apple goes to Samsung for 1 out of 4 components in their iconic iPhone.Now for the negative: Samsung seems to be in a poor place as far as QC is concerned. In both my GT-I9100 Galaxy S2 and GT-N7000 Galaxy Note the USB connector malfunctioned after only a short period of non-abusive everyday use. If you purchase an international Samsung product in the US it may be difficult or impossible to get your device serviced under warranty. The USB connector on my N7000 failed after only one week of use. The phone was never dropped and was never exposed to water. Without this reliability problem I would rate both of the above mentioned products 5/5, however this is not an isolated incident.

He has an outdoor job and, with the phone in his pocket, his phones can get pretty beat up pretty fast.This thing gets 5 stars for protecting his new iPhone (so far), and, that is its main job!But, stars drop for some things:1. You actually need to watch a video or follow instructions to figure out how to put this case on. That's kind of weird.2. The front of our case does not lie perfectly flat on the iPhone, which means there is a small bubble of air in the lower left of the case. Not really a big deal, unless you want to navigate down there. Then, you might have to poke (instead of tap) to get the screen to respond. Never having had an iPhone before, my husband doesn't notice this. But whenever I use his phone, I do.3. While the case protects the phone, it is not sealed off from the environment. And, I didn't expect that it would be. But, this does mean that every few weeks or so, you have to pop the case apart and remove any pet hairs that worked their way in between the case and your phone.In all, it does its primary job of protecting the phone very well!

I picked it up and imagined I was a roadie, wrestling a Freightliner trailer full of amps and towers into the arena for tonight's concert. This is no lightweight device.The battery inside is big and has the capacity to play on and on.The controls are simple and accessible (although a bit cryptic until you learn which button does what).The unit is very versatile. In addition to Bluetooth connectivity to the speakers, you can connect the unit directly to your computer or MP3 player or phone with the included cable. There's also a headphone jack when you need that way to listen.The sound?- Panama from Van Halen rocked!- Cast Your Fate To The Wind by Vince Guaraldi was smooth and mellow.- Under Pressure (Queen/David Bowie) made a horrid week stop ""pushing down on me.""- Monday morning wasn't half bad with an hour of Mozart piano sonatas to get started.No matter what I listened to, I was pleased with the sound quality. Of course, like any speakers you listen to, some equalization from your software will tweak and improve what you're hearing.And one last little test I did: I paired the speaker with my iPad and watched a couple of movies with the speaker unit propping up the iPad from behind. After a short while of watching, I completely forgot the ""infrastructure"" and got engrossed in my watching. A mark of good technology is when it ceases to be noticeable.Summing up:- Convenient: Self contained with built-in battery and Bluetooth- Sturdy: This will go where you want to go and ""keep on ticking"" as they say.- Sound: More sound, a lot more sound, than the price would make you think.You won't be disappointed.",2051,0 +2052,"Hope you know what you're doing + +I had the phone for 1 week before it told me i have not enough space left on the device....

It isn't. All it does it give you 6 large buttons for navigation and search functions. You can't customize the home screen so it makes it harder to bring up music apps.

Took a second. Slightly more work with the Plantronics but nothing major.Fit: The Plantronics is an in-ear model. This Motorola is more of an over the ear model with a piece to squish in the ear. It's pretty easy to take on and off. The only thing that I haven't got down 100% yet is that it tends to point away from my head when wearing it. Other than looking oddly, people on the phone have no trouble hearing me. The Plantronics stuffs into my ear so it has a more intimate feel. This one, much less so.Turning on/off: This is a big consideration for me because I hate, hate, hate charging my headset. It always seems like when I need it the most, the battery is dead. To turn off the Plantronics, you have to hold the on/off button for about 3 to 4 seconds. Kind of a pain. The Motorola, simple. Just flip open the mic attachment and it's on. Flip it back and it's off. Easy to conserve battery life. Big plus.Battery life: I haven't used this extensively but I will say that the profile in the iPhone does show the battery life. Huge plus. And when powering on, the headset tells you what it's battery level is. Big plus. The Plantronics only tells you the battery level when you put the headset back into the case.Overall, other than a minor fit issue, I would have to recommend this over my Plantronics based on some ease of use. I've been happy with the Plantronics for a while but I'm very happy with the Motorola.",2059,0 +2060,"Slim Case - Good Quality + +Recently switched to the Griffin Reveal Etch (Carbon Fiber look) on my iPhone 4. The case was one of the participating options in the free case program through apple, so I tempered my expectations.I'll admit, I'm pleasantly surprised with it. The quality is very good, the case fits very, very well on the slender body of the iphone and adds negligible thickness to the overall package. The rubber edges are great for shielding the sensitive antennas on the phone, but they offer an extra level of grip that was missing from the original stainless steel bands. The fit and finish on the case is good, with only a negligible molding mark on the upper right corner from the original rubber mold.This is a 2 material case, but it is bonded as a single piece. Rubber sides (stiffer than the skin type rubber) and a hard plastic back. Impact protection from the rubber sides would be good, but not top-of-the line. I expect if the drop was on the right surface, you may still have some screen issues.All and All, this is a high quality case but the carbon fiber look might not be for everyone. Mine came with the 'Keyhole' camera cut-out by the LED Flash and the Integrated camera on the phone, but in practical use -- this hasn't caused any flash-bleed issues that plagued the semi-transparent counterpart to this model.I'd recommend it as a great option.",2060,0 +2061,"It's ok.

One day, the Sony headset clip couldn't hold on to my shirt, damn clip, fell to the ground and before I knew it, I stepped on it and broke the screen.I bought the second production of the Sony headset because I thought they may have made changes. They did, now its worse. But thank goodness the clip is EXACTLY THE SAME :( Can you believe it. The clip holds to your shirt, but there is no guarantee it'll stay on... Unless you don't walk with it clipped on, or if every few minutes, you keep checking to see if it's still there.This new version now has a power saving feature, the screen keeps turning off. Which I honestly HATE. I liked seeing the screen. If I'm listening to the radio, it would show you the name of the song. It still does it, but now you have to keep pressing the volume to read it. Also, if you're changing settings, you better hurry up, or the screen turns off.I did research and found nothing about turning off the screen power saving.It works, its just not very user friendly.

For the price, it's a pretty good deal and will protect the phone well. It's $7, so no one should be expecting Otter Box quality. However, the cover door does not like to stay securely shut, and the corners tend to pop up a bit, and you have to push them back down. I've only had it for about 8 hours, but that part is annoying already. It does have a bit of a rubbery texture to it, which is good as it won't slip in your hands (the iPhone 5C itself is slippery as an eel). Again though, it's a deal for $7 for a full case with built in screen protector. If you've ever been to an AT&T store, Radio Shack, or Best Buy, you know they charge $30 for this kind of case (and $50-70 for better quality ones).

I was rather disenchanted with the $5 one, but expectations for the price were met.This one comes and it is really nice, very pleased with it. It does seem like they could make a better guide to insert it, more of a straight shot pocket on the end, but I suppose you get the hang of it over time. The quality is there, the inside has a soft felt to keep the screen nice. Overall it is made of a soft plastic, this is a good thing, a little flex, not rigid and brittle. The primary clip that holds the phone is just the right tension and it engineered to not have an friction when inserting (pushing in and snapping in place) as well as removal. Extended use should not have a negative impact on the Droid X.The swivel on the belt clip is a little tight, I would assume it loosens over time, but initially it is really tight, so you will probably set it in the position you like and leave it there.The only problem is I got about four uses out of it. I was getting in the car and I wear it on the left side, swiveled horizontal and it caught the edge of the seat and broke the belt clip off. This has happened before with blackberry holsters, so I wasn't terribly surprised. Just honestly bummed about it.I would highly recommend the product, just wear it on your right side if you get into the car. That is my plan as I will be purchasing a replacement one. If they made a heavy duty clip, more industrial and even charged more, I would buy it.I gave it 5 stars because it is a great product and it is my fault it broke. Wished it was stronger, but it is solid for what it is. If you need a belt holster, this is the one.

I have only dropped my phone severely once(and the only time it's been dropped)--I am usually VERY protective of my $$$ devices. Just last month was when this case was 'put' to the test. I had accidentally forgotten that my phone was in btwn my coat. As I went to pull out my coat from a drawer at work (classy right? :-)) I had heard a slam! I was scared for my dear phone!!!! I don't know if it had fallen on it's side at first, but when I looked down (verrrry slowly) it was in the flat screen face down position. Yikes!!! So it could have fallen just on it's 'face'. Anyway, I checked it out and to my total surprise there was not a single scratch on the case, nor shattered glass on the iPhone 4! (Cement flooring) Thank GOODNESS!!!!! I must say this case does what it is intended to do! For that, I highly recommend.I have given this a 4 star. If I could, I'd give it a little more than 4 and a half stars since these are really minor. I have noticed that if you go to undo the bottom part of the case where the charging port is, and your hand is oily or wet, it can be hard to open the flap. Also, it can be a pain in the butt getting this case onto the phone and fitted. You do feel the 'snaps' faintly when you do get it on right. But it definitely protected my phone. Oh and after it's been used, as with all things, I have noticed the blue color has turned into a yellowy or dirty faint colour on it.

They told us to FedEx the phone to them and they would determine whether they would fix it, replace it, or do nothing. It's been two weeks since they received the phone and they haven't done anything. They won't return our messages. I'd say that we have a 500 dollar paper weight, but we don't even have that because Tablet Distributors still has the phone. We can't get any response out of them at all.

I had a little trouble sliding on the top part because I didn't want to scratch the phone, so it's not a seamless ""glide"" so to speak. The bottom went on and stays rather snugly (stays on the phone rather than connected to the top part). Overall it's a good case once the pieces are all together on the phone, and you don't notice the cheap plastic so much. It's a pretty good design, I wish they had paid more attention to detail though and had a smoother ""glide"" onto the phone instead of making you jam the phone in by force, and I also wish the seams of the plastic are not as visible (mostly on the inside which is not an issue, but also allllll along the rim/side on the outside).",2078,0 +2079,"It's an actual Plantronics battery + +As there are several choices for "Plantronics" batteries - with mixed reviews on batteries arriving that do not look like the picture - I wanted to note that mine arrived just as pictured & described.

When I order something, it has been reasonably researched and I do not play the buy/return game to find something that fits my needs.I purchased this primarily to connect with my iPhone 5s. While it paired and connected initially, the headset would not connect on subsequent tries. In fact, the phone couldn't even find the headset (though it listed every BT-enabled device within range), in order to re-pair. I tried to reset the headset (dump all stored pairings), but the device did not respond with the confidence lights signaling success. It performed similarly on both Kindles HD and HDX, also failing to recognize the device although they'd already been paired. And yes, BT was enabled and the headphone was on.On a final note: During its glorious 2-hour operational lifespan, I noticed that the first second or two of a song were clipped. This happened when initially playing a song or skipping a track. It played fine when songs were sequential. It also momentarily drops connections despite being within arms-length of a connected device, so there are performance issues which may or may not be related to the connection/pairing issue.Although my sample of one is hardly statistically valid, “you pay your money and take your chances.”",2081,0 +2082,"Great product! + +Received the item in just a few days in new wrapped package.

When I got them in the mail, I popped one in my phone so I could charge it up and have it available as a spare while I was on vacation. I read another review on here that said when a different battery was placed in your phone it would ""erase"" your settings because the settings on the HTC inc. are linked to individual batteries. Little did I know, when I put the battery in, it erased EVERYTHING on my SD Card. Contacts, Music, Text messages, photos, videos, etc, etc. NONE of my apps that I moved to my SD card were on my phone anymore. EVERYTHING from the SD card was gone. My phone was so bricked at this point I had to factory reset it and it took a good 4 hours to get it back to ""normal"" with all my apps back on it. Luckily I had my contacts backed up so it saved those. If you know some way around this, then it seemed like the batteries would be fine. I previously had the extended life Seido (sp?) battery also available here on Amazon (which I returned because I found it to be too bulky) and when I first put that battery in, it did NOT erase everything on my SD card, so I'm not sure what the deal is.Now, a review of the company:The shipping time, which says 3-5 days, took 13 days total. When I contacted the company about what the battery did to my phone, they were very apologetic and made it easy for me to get a full refund, including return shipping. I would deal with them again, but not for this same product (or any other cell battery for that matter).",2088,0 +2089,"Mine was DOA + +I dont recommend this item. I got mine it would not work. Definately not worth the money! Do not waste your time. It also tokk forever to recieve it!",2089,0 +2090,"Excellent, but could use some improvements. + +I purchased this item from Amazon around December 2011, and here is my review after 4 months of usage. To start, I have previously used a Motorola S9-HD which my sweat conveniently killed the device after 2 weeks of usage. I started researching into other bluetooth earphones that claimed to be sweat resistant, but all of them had negative reviews regarding the sweat. I have previously never heard of Jaybird before, so I was skeptical about the product. I read a few reviews which claimed that these were great against sweat, and decided to give it a try. I use these only when I go to the gym, and I visit the gym about 6 times a week.Pros:1. This device is legitimately sweat proof. I sweat A LOT, to the point where I look like I jumped into a swimming pool. These have held up just fine to my sweat.2. Sound quality is excellent despite it being bluetooth3. Pairs with ease with my Iphone, laptop, etc. Does not have an issue re-pairing every time.4. MUCH more comfortable than wearing a band-like bluetooth device such as the Motorola S9-HD.5. Excellent battery life, I've only drained them down to empty once in my 4 months of ownership. I charge it periodically, but the time that I didn't, I was able to get approximately 8-10 hours of battery life between 4-5 days.Cons:1. If you sweat like I do, the insides of your ears will get wet too. Despite having the secure fit ear cushions, it still moves around a lot simply because the insides of my ear is well lubricated with sweat. Fortunately, due to the secure fit ear cushions, the headphones have not fallen out of my ears yet. Just requires readjustment periodically.2. The band connecting the two ear pieces together is made of a rubber material, which is a poor design in my opinion. The reason being is that when you start sweating behind your neck, the band will catch. This is likely the main reason why my headphones are always moving and requires readjusting (refer to con#1)3. Bluetooth cuts in and out sometimes because the receiver is on the right side. You need an armband connected to your right arm for a good listening experience. This isn't necessarily a flaw of the headphones, but a flaw of Bluetooth itself. Most users of Bluetooth do not realize this and expect flawless pairing. These headphones will work excellent indoors in a small room or a low ceiling gym. They work like garbage if you are running outdoors or are in a large gym with a high ceiling (thus the need for an armband on the right arm). The reason being is that Bluetooth radio frequencies bounce off walls and ceilings for reception; if you're outdoors, there is nothing to bounce off of. Jaybird mentions this in the product manual as well.4. This may not pertain to everyone. I enjoy sleeping with my earphones on while on long trips or airplane rides. Due to the design of the headphones and the fact that they protrude outwards significantly, you will feel a lot of discomfort if you lean your head against a pillow. It's as if the earphones are poking at you.All in all, these are excellent earphones. I would not hesitate to buy another jaybird product now, as I truly believe these are the ones to get if you want sweat-resistant Bluetooth earphones. Hopefully they will have improved on the tiny issues that I have in their next edition.",2090,0 +2091,"I love this phone + +I've seen almost all good reviews for this phone, so naturally I went into buying it with a very positive feeling.

It definitely takes some getting used to, that's for sure.Bottom line, this is one awesome phone. I mean, talk about top of the line technology.",2091,0 +2092,"Appears to ship directly from China! + +I ordered this item Saturday, January 19, 2013. The anticipated delivery date is approximately 6-8 weeks. I did not realize it shipped directly from the People's Republic of China. If it ever does get here hopefully I will have gotten my phone fixed by then.",2092,1 +2093,"Compared to front-Qwerty Devices such as Blackjack + +This review is for you if you are comparing between a phone with a Qwerty keyboard on the front with the HTC Touch pro. I have had the Samsung Blackjack that has a qwerty keyboard on the front for a while and switched to the HTC Touch pro. The touch screen and slide out qwerty keyboard offer some advantages but Verizon and HTC seem to have messed it up. Below is a comparison:The good:1. On phones with qwerty keyboard on front, if the number you wish to dial is specified using letters, such as 800-323-ABCD, there is no way to convert the ABCD to actual numbers. On touch pro, the on-screen numeric keypad has the letters on top of the numbers.2. Touch pro has dedicated number keys on the slide out qwerty keyboard and that is very useful for typing email/text msg.The bad:3. Touch pro's touch screen turns on when a call is being received: thus when pulling out the phone from the pocket, you inadvertently touch some part of the screen which messes with receiving the call.4. If the screen is set to lock after some time, you cannot see the mail accounts and calendar events without unlocking the screen (on blackjack these things are visible even on a locked screen).6. When touching the ""Contacts"" button on Touch-pro, the screen shows 2-3 contacts only as the lower portion of the screen is hidden by a keypad displaya. Also, the keypad displayed is the numeric keypad. I would want the qwerty keypad instead, to type the name of the contact I want!7. You cannot turn on speakerphone when a call is received if the screen is locked.8. If the received call is from an automated system that asks you to press some number key for some task, this cannot be done if the screen is locked. My airline often calls me using an automated system when there is a flight status change and after playing the brief message, asks to press some number for more options.9. Stopwatch application is missing.10. Calculator application is missing.11. The alarm is not usable. If the screen is locked, there is no way to snooze or dismiss the alarm. If you do unlock the screen first (with the alarm ringing all the while) there is still no snooze button. Rather there is a ""Reminder"" button which when touched, opens the alarm dismiss window. It is only then, if you press dismiss, will the alarm stop.a. It is very hard to set the alarm in the first place. You access it in some hidden menu under settings and the buttons that appear on the touchscreen are really tiny to use.And the ugly:1. Has happened a couple of times that pressing the top power button did not turn on the screen and I had to remove and reinsert the battery to get the phone back to working.2. On the iPhone when the screen is locked, there is a keypad to enter unlock password AND a button to make emergency calls. On the Touch pro, when the screen is locked, there is only a keypad to enter your password and an unlock button to press after entering the password. The text on top says emergency calls can be made but its not intuitive how. (It is in fact possible to make emergency calls, its just not as intuitive as on the iPhone)3. The phone says it has GPS and it seems from online documentation that the GPS is unlocked, but neither GoogleMaps nor BingMaps could actually acquire GPS satellites using the built in GPS (I tried several times in different outdoor locations).4. In general the icons on the screen are very small (1/4th to 1/6th the size of typical icons on the iPhone) and hence very difficult to touch. The touch-pro does includes a stylus to compensate for this weakness but then you have to use both hands and it looks rather old fashioned to use a stylus.",2093,0 +2094,"The Body Skin was Not the eaiset to put on + +The screen protector wasn't too bad to put on but I thought the Carbon Filter Full Body Skin was difficult to put on",2094,1 +2095,"The best smartphone ever + +Impressive quality.

Every time I have gone to sell my old phones, I've been able to say, that the phone is in great condition and the screen has absolutely no scratches on it.Worth mentioning, before coming across Skinomi, I tried about 3 other brands. One other (can't remember the name) was ""ok"" but not quite as good.

I had two of the original Jawbones that were very good at noise canceling and volume control. I then bought a second generation model of the Jawbone line of bluetooth headsets, which was not as good as the first generation when it came to loud enough volume. Aliph has had a couple of years to work on their technology and boy did they get it right with the Era. With the noise assassin setting turned on, I walked around an active construction sight and the person on the other end asked thought I was in a silent room. The auto volume control made it easy for me to hear them as well. It is also nice being able to choose the voice that the Era uses to talk to you and being able to customize the phonebook information so the Era can tell you who is calling. I would recommend the Jawbone Era to anyone who understands that you get what you pay for. There will be no disappointments with the Era bluetooth.",2097,0 +2098,"The best PCS phone got even better + +The last PCS cell phone I owned was the venerable SCP-8100 from Sanyo. It was a cute little phone that was the second cell phone from any U.S. carrier that could take pictures. (The first-ever model was the SCP-5300 also from Sanyo, released in July 2002.) The PM-8200 addressed two shortcoming of the 8100: 1) camera quality, and 2) speakerphone.The 8200 sports a higher-resolution built-in camera. Picture quality is also improved. The old 8100's pictures often had streaks and distorted colors. The 8200's pictures look much better. The speakerphone is definitely a great addition for those of us who like to multi-task yet dislike headsets. The volume and clarity could be a little better, but given the compact size of this phone, it's not bad.Reception on the 8200 is great, thanks to its external antenna. Battery life is good, unless you save a lot of things in memory, which depletes battery faster the more stuff it holds. The phone is attractive and can be customized in many ways, not to mention it comes in three colors. To Sanyo, I suggest you use the iPod Mini color scheme, because not many people like big red!In summary, the 8200 delivers lots of improvements over the already-excellent 8100.

It does not last for six hours, not even close. In fact the little battery life monitor on the LED screen will, at some point in time, jump from being 3/4 full to having enough juice left for five minutes.Second, the whole necklace design is awkward. Quite often the strings attached to the earbuds will get tangled underneath the thread the forms the necklace, this makes it much easier for the buds to fall out of my ears.In fact that's my next complaint, the ear buds suck. None of the three sizes they sent with the headset would stay in my ears. Just the vibrations of driving on a bumpy road, or walking was enough to knock them loose. This REALLY ticked me off. Nothing I did would make them stay in there, even jamming them into my ear canal. (Which I do not recommend, it drastically increased the pressure in my ear canal and it felt like my ear drum was going to pop.)Finally, the sound quality is not that great. It's most noticeable on heavily percussive songs because the drums just sound like they're being struck with brushes instead of sticks.And there's no bass to speak of, none at all. After using this headset even the bass on my car speakers is enough to bother me now, and they're just normal car speakers.",2107,0 +2108,"Great product, not a universal fit + +The Pros:The function and design of this headset are first rate. Right out of the box it was easy to pair with my Motorola v505 phone.It is small and unobtrusiveThe battery life is really good in standby mode, and lasts several hours of talking. (and it does issue warning tones when the battery runs low, plus the phone issues a message saying ""headset signal weak - switch to handset?""The combo belt clip/charger is a really cool idea. It would have been EVEN COOLER if Jabra had made it compatible with nokia, Moto, and Ericsson phone chargers. Now I have yet ANOTHER power supply to drag with me on trips....Reception is very good as long as line of sight is unobstructed by anything full of water. I can pump gas in my car with the phone on the passenger seat or wander all over my hotel suite waving my arms wildly while the phone sits in its charging stand on the desk. If there is a body in the way (or an aquarium, etc) then the signal drops off (attenuates) dramatically. In fact, there is a marked difference between putting the phone on the opposite side of your body from the earpiece when carrying your phone in your pocket. If on the opposite side, the signal degrades noticeably.The Cons:I have been unsuccessful getting it to pair with either my laptop or my PDA however (an HP iPaq 4155).If you have a bluetooth PDA and use BT to Activesync with your PC, it will interfere with this headset while it is ""connected"" (from Activesync's perspective). You will hear a constant ""crackling"" noise that sounds like the other person is popping popcorn. It took me a while to figure out. You don't have to turn off the BT radio on the laptop or PDA, just ""disconnect"" the BT session temporarily while talking. This is a hassle, but not a killer (one of the reasons for 4 instead of 5 stars)My biggest problem with the unit is that it does not fit my ears without feeling very insecure. The ""hanging"" design always feels like it is flopping around for me, and if I lean too far to that side, the unit will actually fall off my ear. There is no way to tighten the fit of the unit; I have already tried different earpieces and positions of the earpieces, but this doesn't help. This is the reason why I will probably replace this unit with another. Its a shame, since it is such a nice unit, but the floppiness on my ears is unacceptable.BTW, I am not a midget - I am 5' 10 and weigh 160 lbs. I have a fairly narrow face, but I think the bigger issue is that I have small earlobes. If you have small earlobes (rather than pendulous ones) you may want to test fit this unit in a store before buying one here. I wish I had...",2108,0 +2109,"The best Bluetooth ""Earwear!"" + +I've had a couple of Bluetooth headsets before - both Plantronics. And while they worked pretty reliably, they cannot stand up to this new Jawbone Prime. I recently ordered the Plantronics 925 (liked the styling and color). But after reading the various reviews and watching the videos on the Jawbone Prime, I decided to give this a try. I am glad I did.I just got this today and I love it! The fit is perfect because of the variety of earpieces you have to choose from. I found the exact fit using the smallest earpiece with the little stabilizer loop. I don't have to use the earloop (thank goodness) - that was one thing that prevented me from trying the older version of the Jawbone. The Jawbone is so light that you can't really feel that you have it on. The NoiseAssassin works wonderfully. I made several calls today (to friends and to my voice mail) and the NoiseAssassin cancels out pretty much all of the ambient noise. And the people at the other end said that I sounded very clear.Couple of little things that will take some getting used to: (1)utilizing the hidden button or dimple (on/off, pairing) on the side and the button on the top (last number redial, volume, NoiseAssassin cancellation, call reject). Since it's hidden for aesthetic reasons, it's a little hard to find at first. Once you get used to where it is, it's not a problem; (2)determining what mode the earpiece is in (on or off) since the little LED light is so small and kind of hidden when you press on the side button/dimple. This is minor and just something to learn.Even with these two minor issues, I still give the Jawbone Prime 5 stars for call quality (especially the NoiseAssassin), style/workmanship, and ease of use. I will be returning my Plantronics 925. I wrote a review on this earpiece and will have to modify it after this.",2109,0 +2110,"My First Windows Phone + +I purchased the Nokia Lumia 521 to get into the world of Windows Phone App development, but have found that I quickly need to get out.THE GOOD:* The phone is fast. With half the processor of the Android phone it was replacing, it still feels like a hardware upgrade.* The interface is intuitive - the tiles afford no explanation to figure out what each one does. It's very easy to use this phone.* The price is good.* T-mobile wifi calling.* Sturdy construction; this phone should last you for a while.THE BAD:* Apps. There aren't any really good ones.* The ability to make apps on this phone has been CRIPPLED with the version 8 update.- Do you want to record a phone call? You can no longer do that because Microsoft makes it so that you can't access the microphone while in the middle of a call.- Do you want to build an app that manages wireless connections? Too bad - the wireless interface is completely inaccessible form code.- Do you want to change your default keyboard? Sorry - Microsoft says you have to stick with theirs.* No flash (camera and browser), but already knew that before buying.* Try plugging your phone into your Windows 8 computer with the Windows 8 Phone app up while an sd card is plugged into your phone... oh, you aren't allowed to access the phone while an sd card is in use? I have to turn off my phone and use an sd card reader just to get images off my card.* Wifi calling does not switch between wifi and cell zones as seamlessly as the Android app does. It takes nearly a full minute once you've left wifi coverage before the app will give up and switch you back to cell coverage.* EDIT: When wifi calling is enabled, you cannot receive MMS (multi-media messages). They won't download properly, and t-mo won't let you change the bad settings to get them (this is a wifi calling app problem with t-mobile). Every time the download of the MMS fails, you receive a new text alert even though you don't have a new message.THE UGLY:* Google is blocking access to the API key that Microsoft uses for the Youtube app, making the default youtube application unusable. Google - you don't make an API key and then complain when someone uses data from it to build an app. Microsoft - you don't change Google's advertising code provided by the API. Both companies - get your act together!!!THE BOTTOM LINE:I highly recommend this phone if you want a fast little smart phone capable of calling, browsing the web, and staying connected with friends. If you are a power user that wants to record calls, do massive amounts of texting, or build your own applications - the iOS and Android platforms are leaps and bounds beyond what Windows is even capable of doing. Until Microsoft gives developers the ability to create powerful and usable apps on their platform, the Windows Phones will forever be in the realm of low-end smartphones that aren't capable of reaching the complexity and power provided by the iOS and Android platforms.Final rating - 2 stars. Unusable for my needs, but may serve others' well enough. I miss my Android phone...",2110,0 +2111,"One of the best gadgets for iphone + +I bought two of those. one for me and one for a friend. I think it is must to have itVery usefull and well made",2111,0 +2112,"Best phone I've ever used by a mile + +This phone has been my daily driver for about 9 monthsPros:1. Battery: Best battery life I've every experienced on a phone. Finally I don't have to worry about my phone dying on me before day's end. It also has the added advantage of a removable battery so when I'm traveling I don't have to worry about the juice when my flight is cancelled or delayed. If it dies I just pop in another battery. It actually has never diet on me yet2. S Pen, S Note and the other Note features are awesome. I can even fill out forms and sign them and email them back on my device, etc. After my experience with these features I can't possibly use a non-Note device ever again. They all don't measure up as far as functionality goes and so this is also bar none the most functional phone I've ever used and I've used a lot of them3. Screen size: Great size. I hardly ever use my tablet now.4. Pocketability: I'm surprised at how easily pocketable it is despite the size. It fits well in my skinny jeans despite he size. This is because this device is also quite thin5. Loudness: the single back speaker is quite loud and clear.6. Speed: Good speed. Probably the fastest phone I've ever used (unless the internal storage drops below ~ 2.5gb then the speed also degrades and it begins to lag - I'll address this under cons)7. TouchWiz: a lot of people bash TouchWiz but I disagree. I agree it could be more aesthetically polished but it's far superior to anything else out there in functionality. The icons, etc may not be the most beautiful but this is easily solved by installing Nova launcher from the play store and you don't have to root / modify your device to make it look the way you want because it runs on Android.8. Very good camera with a lot of features - I like that it can take 20pics in 3 seconds and yet maintain good quality in well lit situations (average night / dark situation quality pictures)Cons:1. Lack of adequate internal storage: This is my biggest issue with this thing. It has only 16gb of internal storage, but apps don't install to SD. You might think 16gb is a lot but I've pretty much run out of storage pretty quickly (and this is without storing pics, music videos or games on the internal storage)- I have 82 apps installed and I can't accommodate anymore because I have to maintain about 2.5 to 3gb of free internal storage otherwise the phone begins to lag and freeze like a spastic (and yes I actually use all the apps installed - some for frequently than others). I find this very annoying. Now, I understand that this may not be an issue for a lot of people who don't use a lot of apps and who eschew storing music, video, games and pictures on the internal storage, but it is for me and a big one at that.2. Poor sunlight legibility: This is also annoying. When standing under direct bright sunlight it's hard to read anything on the screen. My old Galaxy Nexus with Amoled screen had much better sunlight legibility than this phoneStill giving 5 stars despite those two annoying cons because this is simply the overall best phone I've ever owned /used and non other comes anywhere close, not remotely (phones used - Nexus one, Nexus S, Galaxy Nexus, iPhone 5 - one of the worst experiences, Nexus 4, Galaxy S, galaxy SII, Galaxy SIII, Droid DNA - and maybe some others that I can't remember at this time)I certainly very highly recommend this phone or you can wait to see what the Galaxy Note III has to offer in 2 months (since my review is coming so close to the release of the Note III)",2112,0 +2113,"HTC One M8 takes purple pictures + +I've had my HTC One M8 for less than a month.

I wrote a review on HTC (actually I've written 2) and they censored each review not wanting to post anything but positive comments. I wrote another review being accurate, respectful, polite, factual, etc., everything the "guidelines" say to be. We'll see if that gets canned as well. Don't believe the hype. The first M8 I had was defective right out of the box and I had to take it back. My second M8 takes purple pictures. I guess I can live with that because I don't take very many pictures and it's too late to get my money back and I'm tired of exchanging phones and going through all the set up mess you have to perform for a new phone.

With its Micro USB it fits perfectly. This is a RIM product with the BlackBerry logo. If you have a BlackBerry with a Universal Micro USB you cannot go wrong buying this charger.

The predictive text is worse than bad. This is also one of the slowest phones I have ever used. There is a clock that shows when the phone is processing, and every time I try to go from function to function on this this wonderful clock pops up and tries to process my request. The GPS on this phone is worthless. I can understand losing signal from time to time in rural locations, but this phone can't even hold a signal in a normal city. The battery life is a joke. You will need to have a charger with you at some point in time during the day if you plan to use your phone after 4:00pm.

My wife's iPhone has a defender. I had both the impact and the commuter for the Nokia e5 that I just replaced with the Q10. If I took my iPad anywhere outside of the house, there would be an otterbox on that too.I used the Q10 for about about half a week without any protection other than a cheap temp screen protector; it was a major relief to get the Otterbox in the mail. Blackberrys are not nearly as fragile as phones with more glossy surfaces, but even a few days will take their toll. With T-mobile halting cell phone subsidies and other providers possibly following, we have come to have to take more ownership of our phones. 5 years ago I never would have considered shelling out the $600 retail price of a cell phone, but with the discounted plans available from tmobile and the mvnos (straight talk, simple mobile, etc), doing so makes financial sense in 2013.I would suggest that the pace of innovation in smart phones will surely slow and smooth. (What else is there to do really?) Just as we no longer expect our desktop PCs to require replacement every other year, we will be keeping our cell phones 3, 4, or 5 years.This otterbox will allow you to make it that far. It will prevent screen scratching with the included and easy to apply screen protector. The rubber, shock-absorbing inner sheath will prevent screen cracks in case of butterfingers. Finally, the overall coverage of the painted plastic surfaces on the backs and metal sides will protect the finish from those scuffs and scrapes that will reduce resale value.Although I am very familiar with the otterbox line, I was a little concerned about other reviews' statements that the commuter added to much heft to the phone's profile. Men will usually want to go with the commuter vice the defender unless you wear on a belt. The defender is fine for women that carry a purse because the phone can be tossed in the purse without a care. For those that want to carry in a pocket - the commuter is what you want. Concerns about this otterbox adding too much to the phone's profile are exaggerated. The case did not affect my keyboard or swipe access and made the phone even easier to carry - naked, this phone has a tendency to slip around in even my relatively small hands. The commuter corrects that.Finally, the port access. The interior soft rubber has two doors that allow access to the mini-HDMI port and USB port as well as the headphone jack. Upon first installation, the doors are a little stiff...but that abates with use and they are very functional.The plastic hard case immediately exterior to the interior soft rubber will be familiar to those used to the commuter line. The material and overall design is identical to even the original commuter models of years past.Overall, this is as good a case as any other from otterbox. Highly recommended for your Q10.",2126,0 +2127,"Poor Design + +Within the past 5 months of having my cell phone, I have had to replace the hands-free earbud on the average of one every other week. The main reason: POOR ENGINEERING &/or DESIGN. Every time you would sit down with the phone on your belt clip, the point of contact is always at the base of the phone right where your headset is attached, thus causing the fine wires coming out of the attachment to break. Also, the two plastic tabs that attach the headset to the cell phone are always breaking off ruining the use of the headset. These are the two major set backs on the "Design." Just briefly a note on comfort of the earpiece. After a couple of uses, you will loose the padding on the earbud. After a hour or so with the earpiece placed properly into the ear it becomes very uncomfortable thus having to switch ears and causing the mic to be further from one's mouth making it very difficult for the other party to hear. My solution: Redesign the earpiece to the shape of one's inner ear. The attachment needs to be either a ninety degree angle (so wires come out to the side not bottom) or built to mount on the side of cell phone. After many e-mails to Nokia and calls they still will not accept the idea that it is ideed a poor design.",2127,0 +2128,"Interesting experiment that ultimately fails + +After 6 years with iPhone I needed a change of pace. At the ATT store, the sales guy recommended I try the 1020 even though I wanted the HTC One. Here are my impressions of the Lumia 1020 after 10 days of heavy testing on the road. Needless to say I returned it for a HTC OnePros:1. The slickest looking UI that is very novel at first.2. Crashes were relatively limited3. Camera can produce some amazing results.4. Pretty solid build quality, with a strong plastic shell.5. Did not feel like I was missing any critical apps. The story is less rosy when you start using the apps though...Cons:1. App quality is questionable especially in the crucial mapping front. The Google Maps is crippled on Windows Phone and the default Nokia software provides terrible direction. Other essentials like Yelp are also inferior to versions on other platforms. Many third party apps have ads that are far more intrusive than anything I have seen on iOS or Android.2. Screen is not of the highest resolution for the size. Really needs to match S4 and One since it takes 38 megapixel photos.3. While fine on the hands, it does not work well on surfaces due to the camera. Cannot operate unless your second hand is holding it still on surfaces.. Huge design error. Rather have a thicker phone with longer battery life instead.4. While the tiles are nice at first, their customizability ends up being more work than the iOS or Android. Every new app I install, I feel the urge to resize or rearrange, quickly creating a mess on the screen. There needs be more automated organization..5. Poor battery life. Drains within less than half a day with photo, web, and map use on 4g. Not acceptable.6. Runs extremely hot especially in maps mode. This explains the poor battery life.7. As slick as the UI is, it removes crucial features like copying certain segments of text. Not acceptable when you are trying to copy contact information or trying to go back only in browser.8. Camera is slow and inconsistent. The highest resolution images are available with one app only.9. Not intuitive to transfer files and pictures especially on a Mac. Dropbox, Picasa simply does not read off the 1020. Transfer software frequently crashes.10. Does not charge when connected to a notebook that is in sleep mode. Small things like that make the battery situation far worse.Conclusion: Not worth the trouble if you are an intensive mobile user.",2128,1 +2129,"TOUGH + +I am rough on phones, this screen protector just takes the abuse.

I had a Sprint wireless data card (which blows Verizon's network out of the water, at least where I am located, plus Verizon was too restrictive in their GB usage) and went in to up-grade and was met by a very friendly and helpful sales person who suggested I look at Sprint for the rest of my wireless services. She presented me with a plan that would save me nearly $60 a month. I even added my ex-wife to my plan. I looked at the Moment and was taken by its look and feel. But after I got a taste for its download speed and slick interface I was sold. This is what I thought the Storm was going to be. No lag when loading web pages, a wonderful touch screen QWERTY and the option of a slide out keyboard. Apps through the Andriod Market that are quick and seamless and free for the most part. I can actually watch a video on this smartphone and get through with out it taking 5 minuets to buffer, not to mention the gorgeous screen. So in a few words I love the Moment. The Motorola ""Droid"" feels like cheap plastic compared to the Moment, and even Droid on the Verizon network seemed to crawl and sputter to load a page. This all synced easily with my Google calender and contacts. One worry here; has Google now completely entered my entire life, they must know every move, word, search, and purchase I make. Scary!There are a few cons though, battery life is very poor as mentioned elsewhere, I will see if a new battery improves the situation. It would be great if they would update the Moment to Android 2.0 sooner rather than later. The little covers for the USB port and the headphone jack are a bit annoying especially if you have to charge it often. If the keys on the slide out where just a bit bigger it would be nice. I would also like to delete any unused apps such as Nascar and NFL. The interface could be a bit easier to customize but this is minor compared to the ugliness of the BB Storm and yes I had updated to 5.0. I also miss some of the BB ring tones, like the alarm, but I will get over that I am sure.So over all very pleased and I am happy to leave Verizon, they are getting a bit to big for their britches and when approached about what Sprint was offering, my 8 yrs. of loyalty seemed worthless. The response i got, the price you have is the one in the book there is no way to modify. I said very well, thank you, and good-bye Verizon.",2145,0 +2146,"Defective Headset VXI B250-XT + +After reading the feedback from other users, I decided to take a chance on this headset. I wish I had given more weight to the reviews cautioning about purchasing this product. I wish I had NOT made this purchase! After reading the instructions and charging the headset for over 12 hours, I tried to turn it on and was not able to. I waited a couple of days and again charged the unit until it had a full charge. The charge light functions ok, the headset will just not power up. Apparently the headset was defective from the manufacturer. In the packaging there was a note directing any issues to the manufacturer and that the retail was not to be contacted. I followed their instructions and called VXI. VXI is located back east and I'm in the West, due to the time difference they were closed, I left a message on their customer service voice mail and expected a return call the next business day. I received no return call, I called for a second time and spoke to an individual that issued me a ""return exchange"" number and requested my credit card number as security deposit if I didn't return the defective headset within 30 days. Here is what is really irritating and why this is my last purchase from VXI. I purchased a headset for my wife because she needed one and in California it is illegal to drive and operate a cell phone without a hands free device. The unit arrived defective and I followed all their instructions and had to call twice to get assistance. One would think that they would want to remedy the situation as quickly and painless as possible. Well, that's not the case, in addition to requesting a credit card that now I will need to make sure they don't charge me, I am responsible for the return charges for the privilege of returning the defective equipment. I have to go to the post office and stand in line and pay for postage, insurance and delivery confirmation (as I don't trust them to not charge me unless I have proof of delivery of the defective headset). After all that I'm not very confident that the replacement headset will actually work.I'm glad for those whose headset arrived in functioning mode, but beware that they do seem to ship out a percentage of defective units and if you are one of the unlucky ones that receives the defective unit, it is going to cost you time and money to get it replaced even if it arrived defective.Don Petty",2146,0 +2147,"This is junk + +When I plug the cable into my ipad3 it will start charging but after afew seconds it stops charging.

Rather than review it per se (lots of reviews below) I thought I would give a quick guide to buying external batteries for your iphone etc.My phone, like everyone else's dies by tea time so if I'm out for business or a day trip during the summer with the kids I need a quick recharge.I was recently in Europe and my iphone was almost dead. I committed the gravest of sins. When no-one was looking I stole electricity in the Vatican (of all places). I was waiting in the hotel rooms and there was no guard so I plugged my iphone in. I'm going to hell (but it saved the day).To save all this you need a battery and you should follow this guide:1 There are hundreds of makes batteries but most of them are the same - Gembonics seems just as good as any other.2 Each make does lots of different versions. In short - the more mAh the heavier it is. So if you only need it for the day like me the max you will need is 5000 mAh. If you are mad enough to go to Forest you will need more - like 10000 (but you won't mind the weight presumably because you will leave it in your tent). This is a great example of different products for different lifestyles - decide what you need it for and buy.3 All the batteries tell you how it charges something else but few tell you how to charge IT. Particularly it wasn't clear that you will need to buy an AC charger to charge the battery. I did have a AC plug. That means that on a night before a day trip I can charge my phone or i can use my laptop to charge the Gembonics charger, my wife's phone (as usual) and the battery without needing a PC. The cable you use when charging is a usb on one side (goes into the AC charger) and mini usb on the other side. Gembonics supplies this cable as you can see.4 Enjoy your day out/camping5 i would highly recommend to charge for atleast 4 hours before you start using the gembonics battery and you need to make sure it has all the 4 lights stable.Hope this was useful in whatever you buy.",2149,0 +2150,"All looks + +Will accept an exchange from seller if this is just an oddity.Item was faulty.

The supplied cable for charging fit so tight it pulled the USB connector right off! The entire female connector that was inside the battery came with the cable.Now I'm no barbarian. I own high tech equipment and I treat them well. But this whole thing was clearly not built for use. At first I was happy with the snug fit of the charging cable but now it's clear it was way too tight a fit since it tore the entire USB connector right out of the device.The battery portion also didn't connect flush with the phone.

I kindly recommend. + +Bluetooth Range: I noticed that here has been some complaints about range in other reviews of this product, but I have found the Bluetooth range with my HTC phone to be surprisingly good. A couple of times I got up and walked around the lab before I noticed that I had left my phone at my desk. I would say I had gotten 20 to 30 feet away from my phone with potential RF blockers in between with no audio drop outs. Range, of course, may vary from phone to phone and remote usage isn't the intended use of this device. But, it's good to know I've got a good signalBattery: I probably put about 6 hours of use on them on a single charge over a couple of days. I would consider that pretty good for a product of this size that can't just use any size battery.Comfort: Took a little bit of tweaking. These may look like over ear headphones from the image but, if you look closely, there are in-ear buds on the inside of the disks. And, there are two methods of wear possible. It ships with the standard foam bud covers. But, it also ships with two different pairs (different sizes) of ear shaped rubber bud cover thingies. Those are what I use. Firstly, they will need to be positioned right or they'll sit in your ear all goofy. And they, at least for me, they may need to be trimmed up a bit. The cover on the right side was irritating my ear, so I trimmed off about an eighth of an inch, and now they fit very comfortably.Audio: The first couple of days of use, I used them at work and I found my usage to be interruption free. Once I did get a change to go for a run, though, I did get some audio drop outs. At first I thought it might have been interference with my sports tracker application. But, once I got away from nearby houses on out on the trail around the lake, no more interference. So I double checked that my phone was not in Bluetooth Discovery mode. It wasn't. But, I did have Wi Fi network notification turned on. Turning it off seemed to help. (see EDIT for new revelations on this)So, yeah. Good product. I kindly recommend.EDIT:Ok, do occasionally get a few audio drop outs. But, I've found a very repeatable event that seems to cause them. I wear my phone on my right arm when I run. When I turn my head to the right (to check for traffic, or whatever reason) to the point that it crosses a vertical line straight up from my phone, there is an audio cut out. Interesting. Don't know if it has to do with the Bluetooth radiation pattern of the phone, or the receiving antenna on the headset, but I suppose there's gotta be a null spot somewhere. I might look for other places to mount my phone. Or not. Just knowing when and why it's going to happen makes it tolerable.

The sound quality is just OK. If the phone reception is at all garbled this unit will make it worse. At times I have to ask the caller to hold while I turn the blue tooth off in order to understand them. The volume control is adjusted by moving your finger up or down on the surface of the unit. This is somewhat problematic because trying to adjust the fit of the unit can change the volume. The batter life is severely lacking, only two hours of talk time. The charging unit is cute, but it's hard to get the ear piece in and out and is really not very handy. To get reasonable talk time, you have to carry the charger with you (you don't have to plug it in the wall) and plug the ear piece into it in between long calls. Just one more thing to carry in your pocket and loose. The real kicker for me is that it provides a very loose fit on my ear and tends to move out of my ear when I tip my head. For a long time I've used a Plantronics unit that cost about 1/3 as much as this one and it has better sound, a battery that lasts for days and more straight forward controls.

It's a ball point point but it write smooth and could be refilled. The Stylus also lets me use it like a pen so I can take paper notes and then spin it to interact with my Kindle Fire and go right back to taking notes again.

I was very interested in trying a T Mobile monthly plan, since it was attractively priced and wanted a true "smartphone" without the financial commitment of buying an unlocked I Phone 5 or Samsung Galaxy S III (both of which looked like pretty great products). This phone was an obvious answer after looking at options, using a pretty advanced Android system and having a nice range of features for a novice user.I have not been disappointed. The phone has been easy to use and budget friendly. It is NOT truly unlocked, as I could not just slip in a foreign carriers SIM card on a recent trip to Asia. The phone also provides wifi tethering (for a fee) which is useful when I commute and bring along my laptop or I Pad. The negative comments about the camera and internal speaker are justified, but I still believe a phone camera is an emergency solution and not an alternate for a real camera. If you are interested in trying out a budget T Mobile plan this phone is a good choice.",2187,0 +2188,"Great Rotating Stand for iPad 2 + +I purchased several (4) iPad 2 covers/stands for my husband and this was the winner. My criteria for the covers:1. Not too expensive (I did not want to spend over $40),2. Good protection for the iPad (both front and back),3. Masculine looking,4. ""Smart close"", where the magnetic closure would turn the iPad on and off (wake/sleep ability),5. Stand that would be functional whether the iPad was in landscape or portrait mode.I must admit that a couple of the other covers I purchased did not always fit all the criteria (there was a light green one...not very masculline, LOL), but this one fit the bill perfectly. It hit ALL my listed criteria. My husband uses his iPad VERY frequently.The cutouts do not obstruct any of the buttons, plugs or controls. It is VERY ""manly"" looking too! There is a slight pebbled texture to the leather and the color representation is about right. The cover has a black elastic strap that you can use to close the cover, but my husband rarely uses it because the cover stays closed with the weight of the iPad. The slots for holding the iPad extend the entire length of the cover. His previous iPad cover had indentations on each end and would often slip out of place. These slots/ridges keep the iPad in place whether it is in a vertical or horizontal position.You see the Apple emblem through the back reinforced cutout. This feature looks really cool and reinforces the clean lines and general overall look of this product.The only negative I've noticed is that the slots for holding the iPad in place, sometimes leaves a slight smudge on the iPad screen. This is easily wiped off as you would with fingerprints. I inherited my husband's iPad 1 and have searched in vain for a rotating case like this for the first generation iPad. Alas, this great product is only available for the iPad 2.Definitely give this iPad 2 cover a 4.5 stars.",2188,0 +2189,"False ad- 'Unlimited' data; Zero customer service + +DO NOT be suckered in by the advertised ""unlimited data"" $60 plan.

You are effectively stuck with the lower $40 plan even though you've paid $60 for the remainder of the month. After that, you are forever limited to the $40 plan and not allowed back on the $60 ""unlimited data"".I had left several voicemail messages to the corporate meatheads to no avail.

Sliding the bar to unlock the iphone is ridiculously hard and even if you can do that the mic is totally muffled because there's no holes for it.

What is the point of even having an outer display, especially a 65,000 color display, if it is never on for more than 5 seconds? Furthermore, the display does not respond to any buttons on the outside of the phone. You have to actually open, then close the flap to check the time, or to see if you have missed a call.( a two handed operation). It does not even light when connected to the charger. It appears dead unless it is handled constantly.This complaint may seem insignificant, but I am a carpenter/ woodworker, I use loud machinery, so I miss a lot of calls, and I do not wear a watch. I keep my phone on the bench near where I am working, and often glance at the phone to check for missed calls, or the time.

But I have learned a couple of things about using it with a Nexus 7 (2013). I originally tried a Logitech K400 keyboard. This keyboard worked perfectly, down to the volume controls and power button, on another Android tablet running OS 4.1.1, but my new Nexus wouldn't recognize it at all. I tried several other USB keyboards and mice, and they all work perfectly. For some reason, Google left the K400 driver out of the new Nexus 7. I don't know if their support for other USB devices is equally inconsistent, but if you can't get something to work, it may be a missing device driver rather than a cable problem.This cable will let you read a flash drive. However, Google didn't include this ability natively. There is a free ""Nexus Photo Viewer"" app, but it will only allow you to see photos, not even copy them to the Nexus. There is a ""Nexus Media Importer"" app that will let you view, copy and delete media type files only. It will not even SHOW anything but photo, music and video file formats! It does NOT mount the flash drive as a regular file system! So you can't, for example, use the flash drive to back up any data.Both of these problems can be solved by rooting the Nexus and/or installing a custom kernel. This voids your warranty, and may be too technical for the average Android user to attempt. But these limitations are in the Nexus 7, not the cable!

Its too flimsy...but at least its flexible enough not to break. The nexus s back plate was stronger even though it too is plastic.2.The engine that guesses the words your trying to type and displays the options doesn't seem to ""learn"" as fast as the version on Ginger bread. Go figure. By this time my nexus s was a literal robot churning out those words seemingly before i could think em. This fellow is taking its time. Its improving but the difference is noticeable. I mean i type along quite nicely but i got accustom to just clicking a few letters and selecting the majically presented words before me.3.I have seen one instance when the OS seem to stutter as if it forgot what it was doing then..remembered and moved on. As i said.. thats more the OS than the device but never the less is part of this baby so it gets chewed . It wasn't anything intensive just a simple scoll when it happened. Will have to see if that reoccurs. The nexus s did it too but it was never often enough to be annoying.**Pros:1. Heavenly display. Good grief. I was a little annoyed that the phone was larger than i expected even though i had all the measurements... when i saw it i'm thinking this is a big b*tch.

The layout is nice and friendly with even a few developer options available for the mischievous folks who don't know what the heck their doing but want to do it anyway. Even a cool function that lets you pile icons on top of each other and automatically creates a group/transparent folder that you can name.

The phone keeps operating under the voice password in the car whenever it hears any sounds with similar cadences but the actual dialing instruction commands are usually not recognised. The worst of both worlds! Trying to make a call in hands free mode in the car could kill you if you persevered after the phone has refused to put the call through.Many of the functions connected with the "In Car" profile just switch themselves on and off without reference to you and while the keyboard lock does unlock in the handsfree modes it fails to re-lock itself when the phone is placed back in a bag or pocket. So the first person in my "Phonebook" gets frequent back pocket calls!If Nokia did a decent voice activated phone, I'd be back with them like a shot.

So they started holding payments until I shipped the phones first, then get paid later, but I just kept cancelling the orders every time they held payments, and eventually they closed my account.

Not a good purchase.",2229,1 +2230,"Pure ""awesomeness"" for a tech savvy person, 5-stars Samsung! + +I was an early adopter of the Gear 1 and surprisingly I fell in love with the product rather quickly. Mind you I was never a watch person - so I was skeptical whether or not I would like it. There's a few reasons I learned to enjoy the first version and upgraded to the Gear 2.1) If my phone is in my pocket, bag, or another room, I can see who was calling or texting and answer, delay, or reply from my watch.2) My favorite thing to do is to change the watch face color and design for the holiday, season or event. I can even change the watch face to match my shirt color for the day. Waiting for the full watch styler for the Gear 2...3) Phone Locator. Yes, sometimes I misplace my phone. The gear had a phone finder feature which surprisingly came in handy on an occasion or two.4) Style. In my opinion it looks sharp. I am a business professional and I think it looks great with a suit.5) Safety. Going back to number 1. While driving, I don't have to fumble around for a phone. I can see who is calling and answer in a split second - eyes on the road. To me, that was worth the $300 price of admission by itself.6) Watch of course! I will not wear a regular watch that simply tells time; that is not enough. However when my watch answers calls, makes calls, reads texts, changes face themes to match my shirt color, takes my heart rate, acts as a mini personal trainer, snaps pictures, records quick voice notes, has a television remote, includes a stand-alone Bluetooth music player, and has easily switchable bands, now we're talking about something I'll wear every day (and it just so happens to tell me the time and date).Price note: This version of the watch is $300, if you must have the brushed aluminum and the camera. For me, I didn't mind spending the extra dough. For someone who feels (and reviews) $300 is a bit steep - there is the Neo version! Kudo's to Samsung for creating a less expensive version for those not comfortable at this price point.Bottom line: I enjoyed the Gear 1 and with the additional new improvements, I'm very pleased to own a Gear 2.

I'll just list some of the bad things.1: If you have sensitive skin the battery charging contacts which are on the side that makes contact against your head will cause your skin to break out. The only remedy I could come up with was putting three strips of electrical tape on top of each other & taking a razor knife and cutting a thin strip just enough to cover the contacts. Motorola could have used a different material that is hypoallergenic.2: I have two phones connected to the elite. My work phone and my personal phone. (The latest Motorola Droid Razr) I have the Motospeak app on the Droid. I keep losing the ability to stream music from the Droid to the Elite. The only way I have found to restore streaming music back to the Droid is to do a factory reset all over again, and that is only good until you cut off the Elite for recharging. Then you have to do the factory reset all over again to get music streaming back again. Another way to keep the music streaming with no problems when you cut off & on the elite is to only pair with one phone.3: The owner manual doesn't explain the 6 menu options you have when setting up from a factory reset.4: Overall the sound quality is very good, but when you get the Elite to stream music there is always that little skip every few seconds. Is it the phone?5: The Motorola website is not the greatest place to find support.6: At 129.99 you would expect this bluetooth to be the Mercedes of bluetooths (IT IS NOT)7: There are a few menu items you can not select on the Motospeak app with the Elite.

They were either too fragile, battery didn't last long, can't hear the other end or the person on the end can't hear me or all of the above. I bought no less than five, then ended up returning them because I was not satisfied.However, this year, headset technology apparently has seen so much improvements. I bought a Blue-Ant this year and thought it worked great. Then come along the Plantronics PRO! When I talked using this headset, the person on the end had no idea I used a headset. And I can hear them fine, just like using a landline. I am sure that is the experience you will find with this wonderfull headset. And that is the most important thing.The headset is feather-light and fully adjustable. The ear-piece and mike swivel all directions, so it is easy to fit to the contour of your face. I like the boom mike, I can make sure that fit properly near my mouth when I talk. It is not as compact as most other headset, but very comfortable to wear. It also does nothave annoying flashing blue light so you won't get dirty look from people around you. Pairing it to the phone is super simple, took about 2 minutes. Effective range is good, I can talk fine with my cellphone in a different room more than 30 feet away.One thing I found, that if I don't use the headset for half a day, it seems to go offline and I have to reconnect it (not re-pair) on my cell phone. But it is simple enough, I just touch the Plantronics headset icon on my Samsung Eternity. The manual said the battery lasts 5 days on stand-by, but I guess it is depended on how much you use it. I used it about once or twice a day, and it is still going after a week.Highly recommend.",2267,0 +2268,"It's a great phone for the price range. + +I bought this exact model (but with a green back cover) in China in October 2011. I needed something cheap, and I needed it fast. I didn't want to spend too much money, because I wouldn't be there for more than a few months. My only reason for purchasing it was to call people, send texts, use Google Translate, and use Baidu maps to get around. Fortunately, I was also able to tether right out of the box as well -- and connect my laptop when I was in rural China.If you're a frequent traveler, global roaming is a giant money scam. I suggest buying yourself an unlocked phone, and just switching in SIM cards in the country of your choice... if they support them. Many places will let you pay month-to-month. For example, in China, I'll pay about $10.50 per month for a pretty decent package. Compared to the global roaming packages, this is a steal.You need to ask yourself: what do you want, and how much are you willing to pay for it? If you want an awesome smartphone, go buy something else. But if you need a smartphone which allows you to do the basic things such as texting, calling, tethering, and web surfing, then this is actually pretty good... if you can deal with the small resolution.The Camera is actually pretty decent as well. It was much better than I anticipated.Make sure you get a MicroSD card (up to 16GB) if one doesn't come with this. Use that to install applications on, rather than the paltry 160MB of built-in storage.Cons:- Terrible screen resolution (240x320)- Low built-in storage space- Low amount of ram- Terrible battery, but I kept it plugged in most of the time.- Performance isn't perfect.Pros:- It actually works very well, and it's extremely stable.- Upgrades to Gingerbread easily. Google the instructions. This requires root.- After upgrading to Gingerbread, you can install Cyanogen Mod, etc...- Most of the time, it runs pretty good.- The camera is actually pretty decent.You may also need to download and install the Google apps package if it doesn't come with the phone (mine didn't). Again, Google this for more information.Remember, you get what you pay for. For this price range, the phone is actually pretty good. However -- as of this post -- there may be much better phones for the same price, or a few dollars more. It might be worth it to skip this phone entirely and find something else. If you can afford it, try to go for something with a bigger screen, and better everything else.

The ambient light sensor correctly adjusts the screen brightness from 20-100% to save battery power (if you want the display to dim lower than 20% you will need to use manual mode... the built-in Android power control widget makes this simple).___Battery___AThe battery lasts all day long.The battery is removable (!!!)There is a built-in lever which pops out the battery (no more broken fingernails trying to pry a battery out of the case).Nothing extends the life of a phone like a replaceable battery.___Camera___B+ (better than the iPhone 5 and Galaxy S3)Autofocus works well, you can even use the touch screen to change focus modes.The dual-action shutter (1/2 press to focus, full press to shoot) works just like a real camera!The dual-led flash is a poor replacement for a xenon flash (but way better than no flash at all) but since it also serves as a dual-led flashlight (which is quite bright) I am not complaining too loudly.The cameras photos and HD videos are acceptable, and quite good most of the time.The camera's auto setting works well in most situations, but you will need to use the other settings for action shots, macro focus, etc......When compared to point and shoot digital cameras from 10 years ago this really shines, and from that sense it preserves and captures memorable moments very well!...Although it pales in comparison to our modern (and expensive) dedicated camera we usually use our Droid X phones (this was not the case for some other phones we have had).___Android 2.3.4 "Gingerbread" OS___A-The Android flavour this phone uses is great. There is very minimal bloat.Motorola includes "profile" support so you can switch screen layouts between home and work and other.Google is very well integrated right out of the box. We have a family google account we use on all of our devices so that when one family member adds a contact or calendar event, all of our phones are likewise updated (and we don't have to pay for the same app multiple times... buy it once and install it on every device).There are some really useful features that are missing from Gingerbread (like a running application menu) so a supported OS upgrade from Motorola would have been nice.___Connectivity___AMicroSD - the phones came with an additional 2GB MicroSD card, which worked fine, but were replaced with larger capacity versions (16 & 32GB). If you plan on using your phone as a dedicated camera/mp3/video recorder/player the option to expand your memory is simply crucial.WIFI - is another must have. It does not seem to overly drain the battery, but provides much greater data speeds than 3G without using up your data plan. There are plenty of built-in optionsGPS - The dedicated GPS works independant of the cellular tracking system, and is much more robust. It integrates with google maps very well, eliminating the need for constant map updates. It is not however, a replacement device for my Garmin (which has much more features)MicroHDMI - this enables a Doc Interface which is actually quite useful.___Durability___(a/b?)No durability concerns.The metal encased display is particularly solid.The texture and size and weight of this phone make it less likely to be dropped than others I have had. The phone is very solid, so I do not recommend a solid plastic case, but the softer TPU Gel cases work well to cushion the phone when dropped.________OVERALL________AA++This is the best phone for your money right now if you want to use the Verizon Network.

Consider this before buying since, depending on usage, you might want to get a case battery with higher charge capacity. The kickstand seems a little fragile and I'm scared of breaking it every time I pull it out. The case seems very durable and shock resistant. The case didn't come in the original package shown in the product's pictures here, but in a bubblewrapped envelope with nothing but instructions (that seemed seller-made).

The concept is good, the execution not so much. There is a lip that wraps around to the display side of the phone to help protect the screen (good feature) but it peels off the edge with little to no effort (I noticed this frequently when I was just trying to pull it out of my pocket), it just does not stay attached to the phone very well. When you do have an ID/Card/Cash in the back slot it felt reasonably solid in the hand and seemed ok, if the slot is empty, the slot section collapses very easily and makes the case seem/feel cheap. Also I am not confident in it's ability to protect the phone from a knee high drop much less a waist high drop. I think Speck has a very good idea with this case, it would be nice to see them implement this card slot feature to their Candy Shell line.",2281,0 +2282,"It's a lot more expensive than I expected - feels like a bit of scam + +Here is how it worked for me (or actually for my wife who went to a conference in France and then to Amsterdam). I had an old off-the-contract iPhone 3GS that I had AT&T; unlock for me. Installed the SIM card (regular for 3GS - not the micro version), activated the OneSim account on-line and got a USA phone number assigned to it (turned out to be a Texas area code) and the SimCard already had an international (Estonian) phone number printed on it - so all seemed good, until over the course of the next 10 days, while she was away, I discovered the following:Receiving calls1. The US phone number is NOT FREE. It's free to a caller from the US (if they have free US long distance like most people do) but the OneSim account is being charged $0.20 per minute while it is accepting a call placed to that US phone number.2. The international number that the card comes with is the Estonia country code. One of the most expensive out there, except maybe countries in Africa. So the OneSim card will not be charged for a call to that Estonian phone number, but the caller from the US will pay at their regular international call rate. I tried using my Google Voice (turned out to be $0.33 per minute - for comparison a Google Voice call to Israel or Russia is about $0.02 per minute). Also using MagicJack, calling from home, was about the same price per minute as Google Voice - and calls to Israel and Russia are also next to free from MagicJack.So it seems like the solution would be to call the US phone number assigned to it and pay $0.20 per minute off the OneSim card account, right? Not so, really... I paid $40 for it and it came with only $10 credit which pretty much all got used up while I was testing the SIM card (calling/answering and texting to/from) after the installation while still in the US. Oh, yes, sure you can recharge the SIM card account but it starts with the $25 minimum!Placing calls:Calling from France and Netherlands to the US was about $0.30 - 0.50 per minute! If the account balance drops below the per minute price, you can't place calls or receive calls to the US phone number assigned to the card (as would be expected) BUT also you CANNOT receive calls to the Estonian phone number either (which is supposed to be free and not require any money from the SIM card account). So no communication, then. The person calling you better check your account balance to see if you have money there to receive a call that is supposed to be ""free"" for you. And you can add $25 minimum. That seemed like a scam to get you to pay at least $25 more to continue to use the ""free"" features that come with it! My wife ended up having to send me emails using wifi to recharge her account until I figured out to check the balance regularly. I ended up recharging the card account for $50 in the end just so that she would not be without a phone while I am asleep here (time difference).Texting:YOU CANNOT TEXT TO THE US NUMBER ASSIGNED!!! I called the customer service, they picked up pretty quickly, but the girl at first pretended like she was not sure what problem I was asking about (like no one ever asked about that before) and then sounded pretty annoyed that I was even asking why my texts to the OneSimCard's US phone number get returned with an error message. She explained that it says so in at least three(!) places on the website - ""so of course you can't text to the US phone number - it's a landline!"" I asked if I will have to pay my regular international text message fee (AT&T;) to text the Estonian phone number - she said something like ""Duh..., obviously"". AT&T; I think takes like 50c to a dollar for one of those international texts. However if you have two iPhones and the international one is connected to WiFi at the hotel or at the conference or wherever, then the ""Blue"" iMessage will work and will be free to both sides. But you never know. If it turns green after a few minutes, you will have to pay for a text message. So I waited for my wife to text me that she is at the hotel before texting her back.She was able to text from WiFi only. I opted out of the OneSim data package when I activated the account. It seemed too expensive to begin with.Technical weird stuff:When you call a US phone number from that OneSim card phone you are not actually calling that number. You are letting their computer know what number you want to call. You dial the number and press ""Call""/""Send"" and the phone immediately hangs up with ""Call Failed"" screen. A second or two later, it's ringing as if that person were calling you back. You pick up and hear the dial tones - that's when the phone of the person you were calling begins to ring. Not a major inconvenience, just seems like not the most elegant way to do it and feels like ancient technology like that should cost next to nothing, but it does not!!! (see the pricing above).Conclusion:It was better than nothing (worked for voice calls most of the time - unless the balance was low), but turned out to be much more expensive than I expected. I ended up paying a lot of $$$ on top of the original purchase price and will not be using this card again. I will try to do more research and find a better alternative.I could not believe how many 5-star reviews are out there for this product so I clicked on some ""See all my reviews"" buttons next to the glowing 5-star reviews. Seemed like the ones I saw came from people who wrote only one review total. Just for this ""awesome"" SIM card and their unparallelled customer service and never any other product reviews. And most of the ones I saw were not ""Amazon Verified purchase"". Maybe whomever wrote them will read this and catch on to that and add a couple more reviews for other products to make it look more legit. In any case, this is hardly a 5-star product. Not zero stars (it kind of works for voice calls and you don't pay more than you would have paid if you just brought your regular iPhone abroad), but it's 2-stars at best.UPDATE: The next day after posting this review, I got an email from OneSimCard demanding to edit the last part of it and remove the sentence that was there saying that I thought that maybe their marketing guys wrote those 5-star reviews under various aliases. I was happy to remove the sentence to make them happy - everything is clear regardless. I also used that opportunity to change the rating to from 2 stars to 1 star.",2282,0 +2283,"Inexpensive, great array of colors + +These silicon skins do the job.

The best lasted a month and the worst not even a day. I can't comprehend why they haven't redesigned the part. The problem lies in the cable, which there is no need for in the first place. If you put any stress on the cable it shorts internally. Why they haven't just scrapped the cable and made an adapter that screws in as a solid unit where you can then plug your headphones into is completely beyond me. I've yet to see the need for the four inches of extra cable. Totally ruins the case, which I've otherwise been satisfied with... minus it having been overpriced.",2284,0 +2285,"Amazing hardware, difficult software + +I'll point out the negatives first. This phone runs the Symbian OS, which Nokia is abandoning for Windows Phone 7 (and Meego, perhaps). Symbian is not nearly as intuitive as its competitors, which is unfortunate because it is just as technically capable if not more so. The system is riddled with inconsistencies and haphazard placement of options. App availability and ease of installation is seriously lacking (the Ovi store is garbage).That said, multitasking is far superior compared to other systems, especially considering the hardware resources available on the N8. This is a byproduct of Symbian's longevity in the market (which is also the source of aforementioned consistency issues). Updates to the OS will be coming this year, but don't expect too much. Another byproduct of Symbian and the hardware is ridiculous battery life, considering the camera, flash, and various network connections.Think desktop Linux vs. Windows 7 or Mac OSX and you'll have an idea.Summary:Not many ""apps"" available. (Face it, most of you just download games anyway. Perhaps their lack of availability here will be a positive influence on your life.)Amazing camera (12MP, fast, real xenon flash), incredible at this price point. This alone makes the N8 a serious competitor for the price.Great battery life.GPS, maps, and navigation without an Internet connection for free. No more Google Maps failures when you were relying on it (see this constantly among iPhone users).Pentaband, works on any 3G/GSM network in the entire world (since you're buying an unlocked phone, this is probably an important consideration).Extremely durable casing with a Corning glass scratch resistant screen. With a rubber case you literally cannot break it unless you drop it in water.The only smartphone available in many different colors. Can you think of another smartphone that is orange, cyan, or magenta? Some really won't care about this, but I love that fact that it is orange. It is definitely not just another black rectangular solid.Need a phone that works everywhere, takes great pictures, has excellent battery life, is invincible, and can navigate in most countries of the world without a connection? Don't care about ""apps""?If you meet that description, this phone is absolutely your best option at the moment.On an unrelated note, this phone proves Nokia still makes some of the best hardware out there. Microsoft made an excellent decision paying them a billion dollars (really) to switch to their platform. Don't write off Windows Phone yet.",2285,0 +2286,"A few issues with the case and poor UAG customer service + +A companies customer service is just as good as their product and for this reason they lose an extra star. I previously had the UAG case on my HTC One M7 as well as my Iphone 5. So I decided to get their case again when it came out for the HTC One M8. The case is pretty close to the M7 case but there are currently 2 issues with it.1. The cutout for the main camera is not centered correctly. The HTC One M8 has a silver ring around the rear camera, but the top right corner is covered by the case.2. The cutout for the headphones is to large, it creates a gap where I can see through to the other side when you look straight down when holding the phone.I posted a picture of the first issue (my biggest concern) on their FB page, but they deleted it without commenting. I also sent them an email and I got a response saying they will look into it and get back to me (no one has) and a follow up email has gone unanswered.Though the case isn't all bad, one of the nice features I like is they put these groved bumpers on the side to make the phone case less slippery when holding.If I ever hear back from UAG on the above issues I would re-adjust my rating but currently I am not as happy with this case as I was with my last two UAG cases.***Update*** So I finally heard back from UAG with the following: ""We tested this with our production models and even though we see the reports, we haven't replicated it with the the cases we have on hand. We think this may be affecting 1 in 500 or so of our cases.""If they haven't been able to replicate it, they aren't trying very hard, there is numerous post online both on Amazon and different messages boards.

Absolutely no complaints about the kit, and the setup of the service. Very straight-forward. Excellent.I shaved a star off the rating, not because of the kit, but because the T-Mobile prepaid service did not seem to give the same data service/coverage as a normal plan.It appears to me that the prepaid plan does not have Roaming Data. If I am wrong, someone please correct me.I have a new Samsung Galaxy Nexus (GSM), and use AT&T; normally, in the NYC/CT region. For one month, I tried using this T-Mo prepaid plan, going for the 3GB data with low talk time. (I don't talk much, but use email/data all the time). As I drove around the area, I would swap my SIM cards out, comparing AT&T; coverage with T-Mobile coverage. And while one SIM was in the Galaxy Nexus, the other was in my older Nexus One.For phone service, the bars seemed identical. I did not bother making calls (I am like a mute with phones). Where ever I went, signal strength seemed similar.For data service, I was incredibly unhappy. Where I had strong H+ signal with AT&T;, I was lucky to get Edge on T-Mobile. Even if I allow for spotty coverage in my immediate area, I was surprised to find that even in NYC, my data was spotty.Tech geeks - I did not look into radio frequencies used between Tmo and ATT, and I assume that part of my issue was that maybe my phones are made for T-Mobile specifically. However, I would have thought that there would be some sort of Roaming type of service available for the data. I suspect that the prepaid plans don't have roaming agreements for the data plans. This is a complete guess on my part, as I am not a phone geek tech. I defer to true experts on the cause of my experience.I wrote this review mainly to provide my experience in relation to the data coverage and my specific phones.

My phone suddenly became nearly a brick. Asking it to swap from the browser to another app, or from another app to the browser, and if you were sitting on a page with flash (most use it for adverts, etc. nowadays), you can plan on waiting up to 15 seconds for the phone to become responsive again. It was totally ridiculous, and I can't believe Motorola, Verizon, or Google would endorse Adobe Flash on the phone.Uninstalled Adobe Flash and the phone was 100% again.The keyboard is small, but it is a phone, and it feels like a football field compared to my old BB 8330 and 8530 phones (both were excellent machines).

I occasionally end up touching them at the wrong time, throwing off my concentration on the task I was performing.The phone uses a battery in about 10 hours if you are a heavy mobile web user like I am, so be sure you have charging facilities around. I don't know if the Motorola charger uses any special charger wiring to the micro-usb port, but they do separate the charging cable and charger, so if you install the charging drivers on your laptop or desktop, you can easily charge the phone with your computer, without purchasing another micro-usb cable.The only software I'd like to see improved is the mail reader. I think Apple has a slightly better interface for mail, with the swipe to delete a single mail (rather than tap and hold to delete). Additionally, I find that the overall gmail account vs. email is somewhat confusing. When you activate the phone, it asks you for your gmail account info to setup mail, contacts, and sync. But initially, for several days even, I didn't get any mail through this account. So, I setup my gmail account as a gmail imap account in the email reader as well, and all was well for a couple days, then suddenly, my gmail starts coming through the overarching account you setup when you activate the phone. I am not sure if this was a problem on google's side or not, but it was annoying. Now I can delete the gmail IMAP account. However, even more annoying, the phone gmail account doesn't seem to integrate with the universal inbox. I find this annoying. Google needs to get on the ball with the consistency issues here with gmail and phone sync accounts. That's the only reason I knocked one star off the phone, really.I'd recommend the phone to a friend, and I would NOT recommend waiting for the iPhone 4 (even though the iPhone 4 seems to be a well executed piece of hardware), but to each his own!",2307,0 +2308,"Nice look, awful design... + +I love the looks and originality of this case. I've had it since July, and everybody says it's a beautiful wallet.The problem basically is that it doesn't have camera hole. There's absolutely no room for cash or other receipts. It's really uncomfortable to talk on phone with the cover on, and the proximity sensor goes nuts with the case (I constantly press mute or something with my cheek because the case doesn't respect the sensor. the case does not stay closed so the phone is not well protected.It's a beautiful case, yes... but, honestly, TwelveSouth should do better.They need to improve it ASAP.Also, as in today (november 22nd, 2011) My bookbook is torn... it doesn't work anymore.

I had the originaly Looxcie which, while unable to shoot HD quality, I found to be much simpler and more dependable to use. The most frustrating difference was the lack of control over lighting settings. This camera is supposed to "automatically" adjust to low light, but does it very poorly. I have shot videos in low lighting that I later found out were completely too dark to even bother watching. The original Looxcie allowed you to set your preferred lighting options and would have shot these same videos and lightened them up for you. Most of my disappointment, however, has to do with the new Looxcie APP that you have to use. I hate the interface and don;t like this idea of making your videos available for anyone to watch. Also I had to contact support 3 times just to get the phone up and running, and most of their responses were extremely unsatisfactory. Regarding the lighting issue they literally said "No one else has had a problem with it!" Oh, and BIG DISAPPOINTMENT: after getting the camera I found out that it wasn't even usable until I purchased a separate memory card! It was completely useless. Like buying something and then getting it, all excited, and finding out it said "batteries not Included" without you realizing it.

There is almost no bass at all. They sound exactly like $10 headphones. Everyone who raves about the sound quality either has only owned lousy headphones, or works for Plantronics, or has a hearing deficit that pairs well with these metallic sounding monstrosities.The volume is set way too low. You shouldn't have to have your phone's volume cranked all the way up to hear anything.The ear pieces themselves are huge compared to the industry standard and come loose easily - even with the best fitting of the ear tips. Ear buds shouldn't need ""stabilizers"".The quality of the mic is also subpar.The only benefit is that there's no cord attached to your phone. But even that has its drawbacks. Bluetooth saps drains the battery of your phone very quickly and as you should know by now, the more often you charge your phone the less it will charge. Blue tooth headphones are the taking years off the life of your phone's battery.If the cordlessness doesn't matter to you and you'd like to extend the life of your battery then buy a better product - like the Klipsch ear buds with 4 times the sound quality and a much better mic as well for instance...Klipsch Image S4i Premium Noise-Isolating Headset with 3-Button Apple Controlfor half the price of the 86800's... and ""no I don't work for any headphone manufacturers.""

I went through the web to transfer from my prior tracfone, both phone number and minutes. I first went to their website which tried to transfer only a portion of my minutes, so I aborted that. Then I called, ended up with an automated system which said, OK wait hours or up to 2 business days to transfer. So I went about using my old phone. (now Saturday), I noticed that my old phone now said unrecognized SIM, IE unusable, but still had the same expiration date and minutes. My new phone said unrecognized SIM. IE both now were unusable. I waited for hours and tried, as per their suggestion, to no avail. It is now Sunday morning. I go through Tracfone's website, which informs me that a change is in process, and to wait 5 minutes. I wait 5, then try to find tracfone's actual phone number. I finally found it , and then noticed that my new phone was rebooting. After that, I turned it off then on and behold it worked. (It was closer to 10 minutes). I probably could have gone through the process when my old phone was unrecognized yesterday. So I finally can give it a try.My intended use of my phone is, other than for emergencies, is for travel. When we travel, we are always wanting to find the cheapest gas (gasbuddy) or weather or road conditions or food stops etc. Not so much email or the like. I will report when I have some experience. I just got gasbuddy set up, it took 2 minutes of time from my minutes. Not so bad.-One Month later.I still like the phone. It does what I needed it to do. I downloaded the mini opera browser and it works on some websites better than the built in browser. The Samsung software (New PC Studio) needed to allow you to transfer info from the phone to the PC (Mine is win XP) would lock up my computer every time. I uninstalled it and reinstalled it and it now works. It was locking up my other USB inputs (mouse and keyboard)As to butt dialing. If the phone was off, it didn't happen, however, the phone when on, locks the keyboard. I thought I was turning it off, but it still had a locked keyboard so stayed on. Also if you have your email set up to turn on and check on a regular basis, it may accept a call when checking email.

The OS has progressed in usability much since it's initial 1.0 version and the current 2.1 with Sense UI add-ons makes the experience much more enjoyable.The phone is fast and the Verizon 3G network is fast. Web browsing is great and the phone has native GMail support as well as Exchange support. It has an 8MP camera that takes decent pictures (save for the flash is over kill in low-light and up close) and comes with 8GB of memory that can be supplemented with a MicroSD card (it comes with a 2GB, but that is pretty useless- get at least a 16GB)There are about 50,000 apps at present, but this number is growing every day. Most notable is a Google Voice application which is the only way to use voice mail. The included Google Maps has 3D Google navigation. The other Google apps are all present and work as they should on a Google OS (Earth, Shopping, Tracks, etc).There are rumors of upcoming desktop and car docks (later for GPS) and an extended battery- but these have not appeared on Verizon's site as of yet. The 'glossy silicone' phone case from Verizon is excellent for $15- and looks pretty nice with the diamond patterns on the back.The phone is not without issues; there are battery life issues (mostly when the phone gets into a 3G/1x EVDO area and keeps switching) and the optical trackpad can be a little wonky at times.To get into some of the really neat features, you will need to do some 'under the hood' work. For example: If you want the alarm clock to wake to a particular MP3, you need to put the track in the SD Card under /media/audio/alarms. If you want to use an MP3 as a ringtone, same as the alarm, but the MP3 needs to go under /media/audio/ringtones.I use both an iPhone 3GS (for work) and the HTC Incredible. The iPhone I use for playing games (Space Miner, PvZ, etc) as the game developers aren't all on board with Android yet; I use the Incredible for everything else: Phone calls, photos, music, email, web browsing, texting, facebook, webcam viewer, etc.In closing, if you are looking for a phone to play games, buy a cheap phone and get a Nintendo DSi or a Sony PSP- or as a last resort an iPhone will work. If you are looking for a great phone that has tons of useful features that can replace 90% of what most people use a laptop for, get the HTC Incredible!",2333,0 +2334,"Color + +This item appeared online as a lighter color.

The continuing problem of pocket lint in the earphone jack and moisture were totally handled by it.My new cover is not so exciting. On the minor side, the design has changed and much of the sides of the case are now hard plastic (most unlike the 3g cover) so the grip is not as sure.On the major side, the fit is terrible. The cover for the sync opening on the bottom doesn't fit and won't totally close. The fit on the earphone cover is just as bad and it has a hole in it, the purpose of which is unclear. The hole doesn't line up with the earphone jack and can't easily be stretched to reach it. So anytime the jack is used the cover must be opened. What is the hole for? OTOH, since the fit on the cover is so bad, it won't close up and is usually open.Considering the previously good luck I've had with Otterbox covers on iPads and iPhones, I am extremely disappointed in this case and would not recommend it.",2335,0 +2336,"convenient, but folks on the other line complain about sound quality. + +While its nice, and very easy to connect.

It is very responsive, fast, and the screen looks really clear. Overall a great phone, 10/10 for me.The seller(Cell-Source) sent me the phone as described, Brand new AT&T; unlocked and it works with Net10's 4G network, I tried it with my brother's SIM card. I had seen a lot of reviews on here saying that the 4G did not work in the US, so I did a little research and found out that there is 3 models of this phone. There is the E970(AT&T; version) and there is the LS970(Sprint Version) and i believe there is also an E975(International Version). So, for those of you who are giving this phone a low review because the 4G does not work in the US, make sure you have the unlocked AT&T; version and not the International Version(E975). The E970(AT&T;) has a MicroSD card slot up to 64Gb, 16Gb ROM and it comes with a 16Gb MicroSD card for a total of 32Gb but you can use about 25Gb more or less in total, which I think is enough for everyone. Before you buy, you can always contact the seller and ask to make sure you are getting what you want/need that way you do not spend your money. I would not be able to tell you if the AT&T; version (E970) would work anywhere else in the world, the best thing to do would be to research really good before you buy it. Another way to tell the E970(AT&T; version) apart from the Sprint(LS970) and International version(E975) is by the camera. Both the Sprint and International version have a 13MP camera and does NOT have a MicroSD card slot, they just have a 32Gb ROM (memory for storage). AT&T; decided to go with the 8MP camera instead of 13MP but added the MicroSD card slot, which is much better in my opinion. Other than that I believe the phones have the same specs.Specifications:-Quad-core 1.5GHz Processor-Adreno 320 GPU(for Graphics)-2Gb RAM-8MP Camera, 1.3MP front Facing camera-Android 4.1.2(came installed already)-MicroSD card slot up to 64Gb, 16Gb MicroSD card included.-Micro SIM-2G, 3G, and 4G(Where available, check your desired carrier)-4.7"" True HD IPS+ Display(very nice and clear!)-Gorilla Glass 2-2100 mAh battery(non-removeable)I think this is everything for right now, I will try and update as time goes by.

I bought the S III for my wife and opened up the back to transfer her SIM and realized that I needed a MicroSIM Card. Did the normal on-line checks and found that a work-around was possible by cutting the old SIM Card. However, here is what you need to know:My Mobile Provider advised that my existing (normal) SIM Card (2009 vintage - 25mm x 16mm) was not sized to cut to the MicroSIM size (15mm x 11mm) as the chip was too close to the latter dimension.For $3.49 they sold me the new style normal SIM Card (25mm x 16 mm) with the chip being much smaller than before (12mm x 9mm). The new SIM Card was 'activated' with my existing number and then cut with a cutter (like the Clearmax Micro SIM Cutter from Amazon).

Later on I figured out that the sound quality was not as good as with my old HTC on the highway.Overall really easy to use. I hate texting on small keyboards but the swipe functionality has given me the love of writing (text, emails) on my smartphone more than on my laptop now (hope we will have soon that feature on laptop). Anyway I love the design, the smooth navigation.You will dislike the short battery life if you do nothing against it. In the beginning I had to charge my phone twice a day with minimal use of the phone, despite the power saving on. Then I figured out that once you disable the automatic update of apps, reduce the brightness of the screen to his minimal and few more features, you can save a lot of battery power. Just try what may work best for you. Today I spent about 2 hours on the phone and at the end of the day still have about 1/3 of the battery left.You may find your phone shutting down/rebooting of its own, even though you don't need to recharge battery. The power on button will not work. The only option may be to open it, remove the battery and then power on the phone. It can be very frustrating since you may not know that your phone is turned off. This happen to me few times and it seems like it goes together with the automatic update of apps, some apps requiring a reboot of the system.

Emulates BlackBerry Holster Case. + +If you're looking for a belt holster case for your iPhone5 that best emulates the type of holster case long offered by BlackBerry, and you want to use your iPhone5 ""naked"", i.e., without a protective shell, then this is the case for you. I once thought the case manufactured by Splash called the ""Splash Alpha I Lambskin Leather Case Holster with Rotating Belt Clip"" (also offered on Amazon) was the case for me, but the belt clip on the Splash case is inferior and with wear it lost its grip on my belt to the point where the case fell off my belt without my noticing while I was walking. This product by CASE123USA has the ""Thumb Release"" type belt clip that truly stays anchored to your belt and will have a long usable life -- just like the best BlackBerry belt holster cases -- and the belt clip on this case is anchored well and smoothly rotates into different fixed positions to suit your comfort. The leather exterior is attractive and sturdy and clearly provides good protection. And the case has a surprisingly snug fit for a naked iPhone5 -- but not too snug. Really just right. Though there's no opening on the bottom for the earphone jack, you just position the phone upside down with the earphone jack exposed and it works just fine. What keeps me from giving this case a ranking of 5 stars instead of just 4 stars is the quality of the magnetic snap top. The magnet is a little weak and you have to push it down to make sure it snaps shut. Once shut, it's locked down firmly enough but without as much magnetic force as you find on the BlackBerry holster cases or even the Splash Alpha I holster case that I've abandoned. Still, the top of this case magnetically locks down firmly enough for me to feel confident my iPhone will stay snugly in place. So, bottom line, I recommend this product. As far as I can tell, it's the ""Belt Holster Case With Rotating Clip"" for the ""naked"" iPhone5 that best emulates a classic BlackBerry belt holster case.

Then I tried to take it off so that I could return it and I soon realized that it is impossible. If I am able to take it off I will add it to this review.

Fits perfectly and sturdy like a otterbox. Worth the money★★★ To receive it took a while but worth the wait.",2350,0 +2351,"Breathtakingly disappointing... + +Wow I'm not sure where to begin on this one...For over a year I was a proud owner of the Argos genuine leather case for the iPhone 4 (slightly different style case from the iPhone 4S). Nearly everyone who saw the case asked about it due to its slim, streamlined, luxurious appearance, and the fact that it was made from leather. I can't count how many people I referred to that fine product and I told anyone who would listen about its fine features.When I upgraded my phone in September to the iPhone 5, I immediately searched for a new version of this case...sadly the cases had not yet been released, but the site promised the product was "coming soon." Feeling "naked" without a case for my phone, i used a small sock as a pouch in which to protect my phone until the Argos was released for the iPhone 5.After a few short weeks, the new Argos was released, and I anxiously awaited its arrival in the mail... I would also be amongst the first to display the new Argos in action. I tore open the shipping box as quickly as possible, carefully opened the Argos box, and out flopped a black-colored semblance of an iPhone case. I picked up the feather-light, paper-thin (and equally flimsy) case--surely this must have been an item used to hold the product's shape during shipping, much as those cardboard shoe inserts do. I searched the package and found no items other than a user manual of sorts.Now that I think about it, a cardboard shoe insert is _exactly_ what this product resembles. "Luxurious?" "Genuine leather?" Ive seen better products at the dollar store. This new Argos is flimsy, looks cheap, feels cheap, and is such an utter disappointment that I am embarrassed to have ever sung it's praises. To add insult to injury, you are reminded each and every time you open the case of its inferior quality--the microfiber lining looks like it was cut by a pair of dull safety scissors...and it was probably pasted to the backside with an old jar of school paste...you know, the kind elementary school kids eat for lunch. The front lid will likely last less than 8 months before detaching from the back-side.I suppose if you never owned the Argos case made for iPhone 4 then you haven't witnessed the differences: simply search for it on Amazon to find its pictures; a side-by-side comparison of the two pictures will show the clear differences in materials used. And believe me, it's ten times worse in person. If there is any real leather used in this new case I have yet to witness it. The exterior is slippery smooth like vinyl. Where is the leather grain on this product? The texture has the same exact precision that only a "handmade" vinyl-covered diner seating booth can provide. Hold the case to the light at an angle--look at the millions of prisms created from the cases's surface, just as your best-made petroleum-based goods will do. The case looks like someone took some thin cardboard and put black shrink-wrap all around it: "ta-da that'll be $40 please!"And speaking of materials, this off-white "microfiber" lining used in the iPhone 5 version is a complete wasted effort. The only time your screen would come close to touching it is if you bent the front cover into a convex shape (of course, doing so would permanently warp the vinyl-wrapped cardboard case and then what would you do??) The "microfiber" itself looks like it will rub off from friction in a few weeks.The only reason I still have the case is because I couldn't return it--even if I did the most I would get back is 50% and have to pay to have it shipped back....Spigen: what have you done to the Argos, and what is this tripe you are trying to pawn off under the same name? It's like Volkswagen removing the name "Jetta" from its cars and replacing it with "Bentley"....we may be suckers, but we're not stupid. As a consumer, I feel insulted. Further, I am embarrassed for recommending this product in the past, and to all my friends, family, and colleagues, please accept my sincerest apologies.Amazon: please remove this product from your site.To everyone else: avoid this product like the plague.",2351,0 +2352,"Too Good To Be True - Duh! + +Yep, I fell for it. The positive reviews tricked me, and now after writing one myself, I understand how they ended up with those positive reviews. I'll explain below.The package arrived in a timely manner and contained two batteries, two rear covers, a rubber case/protector, and some useless dongle thing. Let's be realistic - it's not possible to offer one, much less two, real batteries at this price. The materials and manufacturing processes that go into making a high-performance quality battery necessitate a higher cost. One real OEM 3500 mAh battery would retail for at least $50. If these guys were selling a legit product for $20, they would be losing money on every unit sold.I followed the (poorly written English) instruction sheet on properly conditioning the batteries enabling the longest life, but naturally after each charge, the life became less and less and less to the point now where they are now both worthless.After posting a review of the seller complaining about them selling junk products, I received the following email:""Hi,We apologize for the inconvenience caused. We are customer base Amazon store and customer satisfaction is our #1 priority. If the batteries are stop working, we will be happy to send you out new replacement at no extra cost to you.

Shipping Q2/2012, same price. This review is based on v1.0:It was really love at first sight when I saw the first CES videos of the AR-Drone in January 2010. It reminded me on that one scene in Terminator 3 where they had one of small Skynet drones in a lab with scientists working on it... I wanted to have one - even at $1.000. I already owned a Hirobo Lama RC coax helicopter at that time and was very familiar with the problems of getting a device like that hovering stable or even flying it at all. The AR-Drone seemed to do all that automatically which is not only pretty cool but also extremely useful if you lose control of your helicopter. You would just take your hands of the controls and it stays where it is! The original idea was to start a little R&D; project using the iPhone as an intermediate step and control the drone from a computer and let it automatically fly around the house from point A to B to C. Well, at this point it won't quite happen yet.The manufacturer has built extremely high expectations by showing numerous product videos on Youtube. One particular video shows two players driving two drones through the woods out of direct eye sight just using the iPhone video display. That's purely science fiction: frame rate and video latency/delay simply don't allow you doing that.The Wi-Fi signal indicator bar either shows 4/5 or nothing at all. DYI programmers on a web forum have now revealed that we are looking at a static picture rather than an actual indicator. The drone is actually supposed to go in auto hover mode as soon as it loses the Wi-Fi connection of if you receive a call on your iPhone. Well, we see quite a number of reports where a drone out of range flew off like a rocket! 45 angel at maximum speed until the battery is dead. You'd be more than lucky to find what's left of your done again in a distance of 3 miles and that it doesn't crash into someone. At any rate: faking the signal strength display in a case like that where it really matters is just reckless IMHO.The automatic start procedure works nice and flawless. You just hit the <ascent> button and the machine rises to 2ft height and stays more or less in position. The auto descent however is less impressive at all. ""Soft"" as they state in their product copy is definitely different. It almost drops like a rock over the last 2"". That should work much smoother. They might want to get that fixed in a software update sooner or later.What really differentiates the AR-Drone from other RCs out there (beside the Wi-Fi / iPhone control) is it's built in stabilization system: you get an accelerometer, 2 gyros, an ultrasound altimeter and a video camera facing downwards feeding an real time image processor to see if you are drifting in either direction. The image processor needs a contrast rich and rather bright picture (ground, floor) to work. The more texture the better. It didn't work at all on my industrial style concrete floor although it has some light gray textures it. The drone drifted 8""/sec. Using it on a colorful carpet it worked better. Looking at the CES videos on youtube again I started to realize that the manufacturer had been using a carpet showing aerial photography at their well illuminated booth. All the roof tops, hedges and streets on that carpet provided a great texture and rich contrast for the image processor to work - now I don't want to put fancy carpet all around my house to use the drone.The ultrasound altimeter works perfectly fine on even surfaces. The system keeps the altitude at a constant level even when flying across a sofa or a table. The drone surges up to keep the constant distance. Keep that in mind when approaching a 2.9ft table at an altitude of 5.5ft: It will surge up to 8.4ft and bump right into the ceiling. Same story flying outdoor over a hedge or garage. Heights add up. I also had random heights going over grass and hedges due to poor ultrasound reflection.The brushless motors are getting extremely hot - too hot IMO. I would not recommend flying longer than the promised battery life of 12 minutes. That's actually quite common for all sorts of RC models with this type of engines.The lipo battery that comes with it is supposed give you 12min flight time at 1.5h to recharge it. I couldn't get more than 8min out of it even after recharging it for the fourth time. The battery charger isn't explained anywhere in the manual. It's got 5 LEDs. I got it blinking red/green after each recharging process. Only after unplugging and charging it again I got a stable green light from it.The EEP (styrofoam like) elements do have quite fragile bridges. The indoor hull won't survive any medium crash. It does the job protecting the propellers and everything else from the propellers while flying. On some of the product pictures it almost looks like the indoor hull has got a chrome finish. The reality is it's a black and white print which looks nothing like what you would expect from that picture at all.Final verdict: Disillusionment. I was expecting more than that. Skynet isn't quite ready yet. It reminds of these football playing sort of robots they show you on Discovery Channel - still struggling to walk straight, oh well. Before the product launch I've seen a couple of people concerned folks on news boards that this thing might be used as a new weapon. Don't worry at all - at least until the developers actually do their homework. I'm looking forward to an advanced model fixing the image processor and ultrasound limitations as well as adding GPS. I'm quite sure there will be more and better gadgets like this soon. I'll be back!rkooPS: From the FAQs: Spying on the cute girl next door probably isn't going to work either: That thing is pretty darn loud.

This is not a Furry-Mammal Box (not sure if I'm allowed to name-drop), so it is not going to offer much protection if drop-kicked for a field goal. As other reviews have mentioned, no, the case does not do a very good job of acting like a stand (on its own). Yes, if you put enough pressure on the front of the case, it will trigger the home button at the bottom of the phone. And on a personal (un-checked) bias, I'm not sure how I feel about a magnetic clasp on a phone with a magnetic sensitive sensor in it. However, many cases have this, and I've never heard about any issues, so I'm not that worried.Alright, on with the good! Do not be mistaken, as this case is actually pretty sturdy. The only reason the stand doesn't actually work, is because the weight of the phone causes it to slide on the felt inside of the case. I keep a cloth in the case for cleaning the screen, so to cure the sliding issue, I just fold the cloth and put it under the edge of the phone. This is not a cheap plastic, or pleather style case, this is something you would see for a business style checkbook register, so the case does add a nice elegant, professional organizer look to the phone. The case itself has a black plastic cradle that the phone snaps into, so once it is in, the phone doesn't go anywhere. While the home button can still activate with heavy pressure, the side volume and power buttons are protected by the cradle, but given the price of the phone, I really don't plan on letting it see much abuse. All-in-all, I'm sorry other people may have been disappointed by expecting some spring-loaded, steel-sleeved pop-up desk for a case, but I am quite happy with it. It's simple, cheap, and with a little common sense, works just fine. The only reason I gave it four stars is like I said, I like it, but it's not life altering.

I don't know how noise-isolating they are, but they feel good and they do block noise at least compared to regular earbuds.However. The earbud cord is made of a stiff, plasticky material rather than a more flexible substance. It is absurdly long, and cords from the individual earbuds to the main cord are of different lengths for some unfathomable reason. Altogether, this results in a mess of cord hanging from your ears and flapping around your waist. There is a clip to clip the cord to your shirt, but if you use that, then the earbuds pull every time you turn your head, unless you leave enough cord free above the clip, which is annoying and looks dumb. If you don't use the lanyard, you must use the clip on the pendant or else it will pull the earbuds out of your ears. If you clip the pendant to your belt and you want to take the earbuds out, they will hang around your ankles. But if you use the lanyard to hang the pendant around your neck, the situation is even worse because the lanyard adds another foot or two of cord -- truly, the cord length is ridiculous. The lanyard is also made of a thick, plasticky material that retains the crimps caused by the manner in which it is packaged. And if you do use the lanyard and you want to remove the earbuds and let them hang, then they hang around your shins (higher than if you don't use the lanyard and clip the pendant to your belt, but still ridiculous). If you don't use the lanyard, then you must clip the pendant to your clothing and deal with the stiff earbud cords flapping around. It looks messy and unprofessional and the cords get in the way.The microphone is located on one of the earbud cords, and it hangs too low - nearer my chest than my mouth. People on the other end of phone calls complained of the sound quality even when I held the microphone near my mouth.Finally, every time you push a button, there is a loud beep in the earphones. So, if you want to increase the volume by hitting the volume up button a couple of times, you get a loud beep each time you push it, which also interrupts the music.All in all, I wanted to like this, but had to return it.

(Open your dialer and Press in *#0000# to see your firmware version)UPDATE #2: I have been playing around more with the GPS and came to a conclusion that the text to speech on this phone gives me more instructions than my Garmin 255w. Though it doesn't speak street names(just ""turn right"" ""turn left"", ""stay right"" ""stay left""...etc), it gives more instructions than the Garmin. For example, when I enter a freeway, it tells me to follow the freeway, and when I go over the speed limit, it tells me to watch my speed.LATEST UPDATE: It has been roughly five months of owning this baby and I can't live without it now. There is a new firmware update that added the support of kinetic scrolling and many other additions. Please update to firmware v40 if you have not yet done so. It is much more stable.

Those are the advantages of this product over the other styles.The pendant can be worn around your neck with the included chain or the chain can be removed and the pendandt clipped to your clothes. I found two issues with the design, though. First, the pendant should have been oriented upside down when hanging or clipped, similar to the way pedometers are arranged. That way you can look down and the buttons are facing you the right direction. Jabra didn't do this, so you have to either memorize button locations or hold the pendant the correct way. When clipped to clothing, this is a bigger pain.The pendandt has buttons surrounded by a translucent material that light can shine through, but it doesn't light up. I wish they'd have added an LED that lights up all the buttons when pressed, since there are more buttons available.Lastly, the microphone is in the pendandt, and therefore if clipped somewhere that your voice doesn't carry very well, your voice won't get picked up well.The headphones supplied are pretty good for the price you're paying, and since you can always switch them out, I didn't see much of a drawback here.I don't like the fact that the left earpiece has a shorter cord than the right. If you clip it to your right arm, the headphones won't reach to the proper side, and the headphone cables are too short to keep it clipped to your waist. This design forces you to clip it on your left arm. Wearing it with the chain, you already have the pendant hanging off the front of your neck, so a behind-the-ear wrapping of the cords seems out of place.The sound is marred by the bluetooth reception. There's a constant hiss that comes from the unit, and it's unrelated to volume, bluetooth reception, or headphones used. As music is playing, it's not too bad, but between songs or during quiet parts, it's very annoying. Short of assuming it's a manufacturing defect, it seems that this headset just isn't what it could be.",2376,0 +2377,"Great! but...... + +Okay, so the phone is awesome. I am an avid iphone user but didn't think the 4s or 5 was worth the upgrade. Plus I can purchase this phone unlocked for 300 bucks and use it when I am in the States or Mexico. The one caveat is this one, (the I8190), won't work with 3g data speeds. You will get Edge data speeds but if you want 3G Data in Mexico Telcel, or At&t; in the US, you will need the I8190-L. That model has the 850 band that is essential to the Telcel and At&t; 3G network data speeds. If I am mistaken on this fact, please correct me, however my research (and experience) spoke to this being true.Bottom line is the phone functions flawlessly and the Android OS is a breeze. Very easy to learn even if you are accustomed to iOS from Apple. Also has a few great features like NFC, toggling wireless and bluetooth and gps connections from the home screen; also a really useful feature of text to call where if you are texting someone and want to call them, you just lift the phone to your ear and after a 1 second delay it automatically dials them. Seemed trivial at first but I found myself using it all the time.The camera is great, although I never used it for video calls because I am married to facetime. Other than that, I highly recommend this model if your local network supports it or the ""-L"" model for use in the States and Mexico.

I previously purchased the Techarmor screen protectors and went through the 3 pack in about 2 weeks. It just doesn't last very well. The Otterbox screen protector is not the easiest to apply, however, it is much more forgiving than other products. Their claims of small bubbles removing itself is true. I had several small air bubbles throughout my screen protector, but by the next day the bubbles were gone. I have no idea how they do that, just happy that it worked as promised.

It didn't work the first time or the second or the third. So I contacted the company with specific questions that weren't in the FAQ. They responded two days later saying to look at the FAQ without responding to my questions. Back and forth was a ridiculous process of circles and unhelpful bureaucracy.

Considering the price for some of them is much higher than the price for this one, the value is quite clear. Overall, the case does its job well, and is functions as a better source of protection than other cases, including thePoetic Atmosphere Case for Google Nexus 4 Smart Phone E960 LG Clear/Gray(3 Year Warranty from Poetic).Where it Excels:-TPU cases are great against drops from waist height. They tend to protect against impact damage better than hard plastic cases, an area the Poetic Atmosphere may fall short. Though I'm not comfortable enough to test it out, the plastic backing of the Atmosphere is more likely to be broken than the TPU case, meaning the glass back of the Nexus 4 may shatter. Considering the cost of repairs, this is something to consider.-The case provides you with a good grip to the phone, both in your hand and on a flat surface. The Atmosphere provided some grip as compared to a naked nexus, but the TPU case is superb in this area.-Cutouts are in all the right places for the ports and holes.-A separated volume up and volume down button, rather than one joint button.Areas to be Improved:-The cloudy back obscures the wonderful back pattern of the Nexus's glass. Its dot pattern is not visible beneath the case within the cloudy side of the S line, but it is on the clear side. However...-The clear side of the S backing creates a suction-like effect. With some cases it may disappear over time, but after 24 hours, the effect is still present.Where it Falls Short:-Compared to the Poetic Atmosphere, the buttons have a more mushy feel, as compared to the Atmosphere's clicky feel with the depression of a button. This comes down to personal preference, but I prefer the Atmosphere's feedback to the TPU's.-The case is easier to remove than the Atmosphere. While it isn't entirely loose fitting, it is worrisome that the case could be lifted off partially if it landed in a particular manner. The side protection of the Atmosphere definitely excels here.All in all, it isn't a bad case, but it isn't the perfect/must-buy case either. If you're looking for a great cheap case, you can't go wrong here.",2387,0 +2388,"New case that actually fits. + +Unlike the people who rated this previously, my case does actually fit. I received it today and replaced my Ionic GUARDIAN Armor Case. So far, this case is superior in a few ways. Unlike the Ionic Guardian, this one does have a kickstand which does a good job in holding up the cellphone when desired. The under layer is definitely more firm than the Ionic GUARDIAN's. Also, I do prefer the way they layered the outer and inner layer on this case more. With the Guardian, the rubber is at the top and bottom, leaving the outer plastic shell to be gripped should the phone be held normally. To me, the KaysCase ArmorBox has a better grip on the sides.Overall, the Ionic Guardian is easier to remove, has a better grip on the top and bottom of the case, and has a more accessible power button. The KaysCase ArmorBox has a better button over the volume rocker, a better grip on the sides, and a kickstand to keep your phone at a decent angle. The inner layer of the ArmorBox is also less likely to collect hair (compared to the Guarian's inner layer).

I have an iPhone 4 and it fits, the standard apple cable that attaches to the base works just fine (not sure what the other reviewer was complaining about), and it holds my phone fine. It's not as solid as the real Apple dock, and if you tap your device while docked it wobbles a little but it's not like it loses connection or anything. Since it is not a solid base it does shift (i'm already thinking about ways to make it heavier so it stays in place).The line out jack seems to work fine but I noticed that there is a bit of hum when headphones are plugged in and no music is playing. It's not a big deal for me since I am only using this thing to keep my phone upright on my desk but if you are planning to run speakers from this, it might bother you. Also, since it is line out you cannot control the volume through your device. Well, I couldn't at least.All in all it does what I wanted it to do, so I guess I can't really complain. 1 star removed for the wobbliness and 1 star removed for the line out situation.Pros: Cheap and it works.Cons: Light, wobbly when touched, and line out humsI would probably buy another one if i needed it.",2390,0 +2391,"Screen freezes every few minutes! + +I was so excited when I recieved this phone and immediately had it activated at my local cell phone store.

The screen freezes every few min and I have to remove the battery to restart. I tried some troubleshooting that I found online which did not solve the problem. I called Samsung and since it is an international version, they cannot help me and told me to contact the seller. I also talked to Amazon, who also told me to contact the seller. I contacted the seller and they do not answer the phone!! I purchased from CELLPHONESHOP. I love this phone but cant spend that much money on a phone that only works sometimes.

About an hour later I opened my account online and signed up for a monthly plan for my kids. The triple minutes is not as great of a deal as I thought. It's not bad but you can decide. So for about $21.50 (tax included) you get 375 mins each month (125mins x 3). So that's not bad about 5.7 cent a minute. Now on to the phone ... first impressions: The icons on the home page of the phone are little cartoons which could be conceived as cheap. The camera has fun features and the kids played the games. Which may be demos. Overall, the phone is decent. It's small and thin. Its a good phone with some bells and looks like a smart phone.

Once you learn the basic functions of this phone, its as intuitive as any other gadget. And the term intuitive, at least to me, is based on what each person determines it is. Anyways, one of my favorite features of my phone is this has 3 home screens which you can place different widgets on, and scroll to them when you wish. On the main page I have time and date, my secondary I have alarm, music player, and phone mode, and third one I have my fm radio dialer, facebook, and birthday widget. The screen is gorgeous and the colors rival my ipod touch. The camera takes good pictures, and so-so video, but then again I rarely use it for that anyways. You can save either to the phone or the the micro SD card. Another great feature is that while typing text, when you turn it sideways, it automatically changes to a horizontal qwerty keyboard.There are other great things about this phone, and all-in-all, a very good deal for the cost.

I didn't mind it, though, because I figured a tight-fitting case was best and I wouldn't have much reason to take it off once it was on. I was impressed with the overall strength of the case as well as its design.This is where it goes from good to terrible: If you look carefully at the photos, you can see the areas that cover the S3's power (and volume) buttons are outdented, but otherwise identical to the walls of the case. As such, they are almost entirely inflexible. I was just barely able to feel the click of my volume buttons through the buttons on the case, and I wasn't able to press the power button without exerting a ton of pressure. Even when I managed to make my phone light up, there was no tactile response at all (no 'click') to the button. I need to be able to turn my phone on and off reliably, and this case wouldn't let me do it. I don't know why they didn't use a thinner rubber to cover the buttons.

Once put exactly over the camera hole (so as to not obscure its pictures), the bottom of the shield appears to hang off of the screen ever-so-slightly. It's enough for concern, especially coupled with my next point.The screen of the Lumia 1020 is curved at the edges where it meets the phone bezel, meaning that if the IQ Shield is exactly big enough to cover the screen, it needs to accommodate the curve of the edges of the screen. It does not appear to be exactly the same size as the screen, and it is near impossible to get the IQ Shield to adhere to the curvature of the edges and stay in place. The result is that the shield will peel up at the edges and perpetually attract lint, dust, etc.The shield material feels very similar to the Invisible Shield that I've used on other devices, but the current "cut" does not seem to be good enough to be used on the 1020 with the curved edges of the screen and the unfortunate fit for this product.

I know now I will never be buying any iFrogz products anymore.",2425,0 +2426,"The Verizon Wireless MiFi 4510L is not a safe bet. + +I wanted to put up a truly ""Wireless"" LAN in my home and ""cut the cord"" for good. The Verizon Wireless ""MiFi 4510L"" sounded like it would do the job. Having been cited as one of the top 100 products of 2011 by a popular PC magazine, I thought it was a safe bet. Unfortunately I failed to account for the fact that all the geeks on major magazine publishing staffs live and work entirely within areas of 4G cellphone coverage. If you live outside of a major metropolitan area, the Verizon Wireless ""MiFi 4510L"" is a risky bet.The Verizon Wireless salesman assured me that the 4510 would give me a better wireless LAN than my wireless router and DSL, and if it didn't work to my satisfaction, I could return it (within two weeks or 30 days, I don't remember which) and `get my money back.' The proposition sounded safe, so I bought it.One problem; I had zero or only one bar of signal strength on the 4510 anywhere in my home. I proceeded to spend several days trying to get the thing to work. Four days later, with considerable assistance from Verizon's Technical Support staff, I was able to get the 4510 to `function' by putting it on top of a plastic trash can outside on my back porch. Not enough signal I thought; not enough signal Verizon said, and all the Customer Support people offered me was a little device to stick on my window that would boost the signal by, at best, 8db.I did some research and decided to spend $400 for a Wilson Electronics network extender package that promised to boost my signal as much as 65db. True to the Wilson sales staff, I installed the outside antenna, two way booster, and inside antenna, and maxed out the bars on my cell phone and on the 4510. That gave me the ability to make and receive cell calls from anywhere in my aluminum sided house for the first time ever. Unfortunately, that did not solve the problems with the4510.Most of the time the MiFi performance was dismal, very slow, often less than 0.1 mbps download and upload speeds as reported by speedtest.net. Occasionally I could connect at speeds as high as 0.5 mbps downloading and 0.3 for uploads. About half the time, I couldn't connect at all. After several more days and numerous calls to Verizon Customer Service, they finally just told me they couldn't help me and that I should return the MiFi 4510 to the Verizon Wireless store.And so I did. That's when Verizon added insult to injury by charging me a noteworthy ""Restocking fee"", something the salesman failed to mention.So this whole Verizon experience has left me with a very sour taste in my mouth, and the knowledge that Verizon cannot be relied upon to make their products work as they claim they will.I believe Verizon wireless has the best cell phone network. I've been with them since the 90's, and can use my phone in the middle of the Jersey Pine Barrens wilderness. Now with excellent help from the Wilson Electronics network extender, I can even make cell calls from anywhere in my home.By the way, I'm keeping the Wilson Electronics network extender package (model 841263).

At first I wasn't sure if it would fit, as it seems really big, but it's fits my phone like a hug. I'm not sure if it will stay in should I accidentally drop it, but it feels really secure in there for the most part. I did try fitting my old case (a knockoff of otterbox) without the rubber casing, only using the hard plastic shell, it was a pinch too small. Had that worked, I would have gladly rated this a five star product, but it's still a great case.The ears are only locked in by rubber holes, and putting the case on, an ear pulled out. Adjusting them, the other ear popped out, but it was an easy fix to just push them back in. They can also swing back behind the phone and lock into place so they're out of the way if you need them to be.There's no problem accessing the on/off button. It's actually quite touchy, which for this case is a good thing. The only button I'd consider having a hard time reaching would be the switch that turns the sound off and on as it's recessed a good half an inch inside a hole. Otherwise the volume control buttons have plastic push thingies to access those.The home button, and both back and front facing cameras are clearly accessible. Including the speakers and headphone jack.The size is a little chunky. Not something you'd want to put in your pants pocket, but the contours definitely help with the grip. Fits comfortably in the hand no matter which way it's held--no matter which way the ears are placed.The only con I have had so far is that it collects dust on the ears really quickly, but that happens with any rubber material.Otherwise I'd fully recommend this case for any Stitch lover!",2430,0 +2431,"Case does not fit the holster + +I bought it primarily for the holster functionality, and it's useless as a holster. The combination of the soft silicone case with a hard plastic holster is like putting a square peg in a round hole.

When I contacted seller to see why I was sent a knock off instead of the OEM one like it was advertised, they said it was a Verizon front.

Not Apple Product + +I have Edited my review to take into consideration the comment below!This little charger is terrific! Even though it is marketed as a Samsung Product charger, it will work on all products that use USB connections, like the Google Nexus 4, 7, & 10, and the iPhone 4, 4S and 5! The 2.1 Amp output will also be able to charge your iPad and other higher-power-necessary devices. You've probably unfortunately realized this already when you try to plug in your iPad or Nexus 7 orKindle Fire HD 8.9"", Dolby Audio, Dual-Band Wi-Fi, 16 GBto your computer and it doesn't charge as fast. If you try to plug it into any old car charger, it will charge slowly or not at all.That's what the 2.1 amps fixes! Think of Amps kind of like a highway (or bandwidth). The more lanes on the highway, the more cars (electricity) can get to your device. More modern, powerful devices need more electricity. That's also how a car like the Tesla Model S can still be charged using a simple 110v plug, although you'll probably get only a few miles charge per hour on it, compared to upwards of 60 miles charge per hour with their super charger that has a 240v plug and who knows how many amps.I did attach a photo of the Samsung 30-pin connector versus the Apple 30-pin connector just in case anyone does try to buy this for use with your AppleApple iPod touch 32GB Blue (5th Generation) NEWEST MODELor similar - it won't work! Even though to the naked eye the two plugs look exactly the same, there's a piece of metal that will stop you from plugging one into the other. Kind of silly in my opinion that the two would make connectors that are essentially the same but not work with each other. Oh well! If you BYOC (Bring your own cables) this car charger will definitely get the job done with any USB device!Great Buy overall.",2433,0 +2434,"Best Phone We've Ever Had + +When it comes to phones, I've had flip phones to slider phones, from the G1 to the Double play, and have owned nearly every brand and generic brand phones, so when i speak YOU should listen. With that being said, my husband and I were looking for budget phones till we get a GS4 at the end of the year, and stumbled on the Lumia 521. Our preference is to Android phones, as the majority of the phones we've had were android, so we instantly bypassed this phone because it was a Windows powered phone. After much painstaking searching, we were bummed. No budget 4g phones to buy and all arrows were pointing to this one. So began countless hours of research, reviews, and more reviews. We finally just said screw it and purchased two 4g Lumia 521's. Unpacking the phone was a joy and as we soon discovered, Windows 8 was the undiscovered jewel. First of, this phones dual-core processor and 512mb of RAM wouldn't make it very far in the Android world, but here it's snappy and responsive, no lag experienced and apps run smoothly. Secondly, this phone is the first phone we've ever had that allowed us to delete the slew of bloatware with a simple click. No more worries of rooting a phone just to be able to uninstall unwanted apps. Thirdly, while the main screen doesn't allow for much customization, you can change the apps on the live tile and change the color of the tiles as well. Fourthly, the phone has an amazing battery compared to other phones. Putting the battery saver on the setting "always on (not recommended)" preserves the battery. I'm not sure why it states it's not recommended to not have the battery saver on this setting, but we experienced two days on a single charge of light use! To maximize battery, set brightness to low, put automatic brightness on, and download a battery saver off of the Windows Store. Speaking of the store, we had heard that the Windows app store was incredibly small. Now know this, Android has over 895,000 apps, while Windows 8 has around 170,000 apps. But think about all the useless apps that people have polluted Google play with, the apps that aren't really apps, and the apps that aren't free. With that being said, we found the W8 store to be plentiful with USEFUL apps, full of graphically cool games, and several jaw-dropping downloads that would cost money in the Android world. We rate this phone 10 out of 10 and would recommend it to all. On a side note, there is indeed hotspot/tethering on here, even though it's stated there is none. The on-screen keyboard works extremely well and the letters are nicely spaced out making two-hand typing more friendly.Pros:Awesome batteryGreat keyboardSnappy processorWindows Live TileTetheringGreat AppsLightweightResponsive ScreenAwesome Nokia Music AppCons:No LTE, which may be deal breaker for some, we really didn't careApp store may not have same apps as android, again no one has room for every single android app, let alone uses more than 20 apps IMHOLimited Main menu customization (tile color can be changed)",2434,0 +2435,"32 gig quad core Samsung Galaxy SIII + +Tmobile wouldn't sell me a 32 gig phone without a 2 year extension on my contract.

All the other reviews do a great job detailing the phone's features, so I wanted to highlight some of the things I've learned about saving the battery, which is the phones biggest issue IMO. I have owned it since December and it has been a great experience other than the battery life, which was shockingly short. Turns out it was just a simple default setting I needed to change.Open Settings --> Power --> Power Mode --> Change the Power Mode to Economy.My phone went from lasting about 6 hours to 18 to 20 hours by making that change. I haven't noticed much of a difference in performance, now apps don't open ""instantaneously"" but that's because they are not all running in the background all the time. I have no idea why I overlooked this small step but I'm glad I found it, makes a HUGE difference. There are three settings: High Performance (this is what it was set to), Normal & Economy. I compared Normal and Economy and didn't notice a difference other than Normal used more battery. I am a full convert to Economy Mode.Here are some more tweaks you can try: When you set your phone to Economy Mode a new option opens ""Economy Mode settings"". Here you can set if the battery gets below 30% turn off XXXX. I have it set if my battery gets below 20% it turns off background data (no updates for any app, you can manually turn back on things like email but you have to go to each app and turn the auto updates on, no way to filter) turn of screen brightness, wifi, bluetooth, and Vibration Feedback.Here are some other things I use to save battery:Advanced Task Killer app: Set the Auto Kill Level to ""Crazy"" and Auto Kill Frequency to ""When Screen Off"". This will try to stop apps from launching when you are not using your phone. And its free.3G/4G Switch - There are lots of apps for this, but really they are just a shortcut to the settings on your phone to turn off 4G. You will get a huge battery savings it you turn off 4G unless you are browsing or uploading/download data.

If the brightness drops, for example, due to a cloud covering the sun, the charger will stop charging the device being charged, and will not resume charging when the brightness increases again (due to protections built into most portable devices). To resume charging, you need to unplug and replug the charging cord, after the brightness has increased. I found this to be true on a cell phone and an iPad. Needless to say, I'll be returning this solar charger.To reliably charge portable devices, solar chargers need to have integrated batteries and regulators, like the ones Goal Zero sells.",2442,0 +2443,"The lying lies of liars, and the lying liars who tell them... + +I just got done chatting with Samsung corporate. They do not make a separate ""international version"" model without carrier imprints, bloatware, etc..A lie of omission is still a lie. This phone is presented in a way as to make you think you're getting a phone that has not been molested to within an inch of it's life by a carrier. That's what I want. I want a phone that is unlocked, who's network is unlocked, who's network circuitry is not manipulated to work slower on a competitor's network, who's application area is not littered with all their proprietary crap, and uninstallable, and a phone I can use without having a carrier's stupid logo stabbing me in the eyes a thousand times every time I use it, by pressing their stupid logo on the home key to start the phone and watch their stupid logo on startup screen, by watching their stupid logo on the wallpaper disappear as another stupid logo appears during the call, their stupid ""soundfont"" along with some stupid automated voice thanking me for using <company name>, and saying my <companyname> service has x minutes left. Then another stupid logo as the call connects, then another stupid logo as the call is ended.I'm not kidding. Every time I make a phone call anymore, I feel completely molested.

This one with the white back plate is cheaper than the same one with the black plate. Unfortunately, I did not (and could not) buy the battery without the back plate, which is useless for my purpose.It's very difficult to find a good case whenever you outfit your smartphone with an extended battery with a protruded back plate. I bought this battery with the Seidio Active Extended Case, which is the only mult-layered (i.e., soft TPU interior + hard plastic shell) protective case that could fit an extended battery. Seidio's Active Extended Case was designed to work with a special back plate that is different from Anker's extended back plate. Seidio's special back plate comes with Seidio's own ridiculously overpriced 3500mAh extended battery (at around $60 apiece,) and it does not last as long as this Anker battery. Obviously no one wants to pay 3x or 4x times more for an extended battery that offers a much lower mAh -- and is rated lower than cheaper alternatives by users and reviewers.What you can do is to call Seidio and order the back plate by itself for $15 (plus shipping.) That special back plate is not available from Amazon or anyway else. The Anker 4500mAh would fit into Seidio's special extended back plate. Then you would be able to use the Seidio Active Extended Case with this Anker battery. I ordered the back plate along with the Active Extended Case directly from Seidio to save on shipping, (which would be cheaper than separately buying the Active Extended Case from Amazon and the back plate from Seidio even with Amazon free shipping.)The Seidio's back plate is currently available only in black, but it actually goes nicely with a white Samsung Galaxy S3.

There is also an orange light that comes on for a second when I first insert the battery, which I think is supposed to stay on if the battery is damaged or too hot to charge (not certain about that, and I cannot locate my manual right now).I can assure you that I will buy another one of these from Samsung when I buy my next Galaxy phone, even though battery technology is ever increasing, so is my demand on the battery, therefore I do not see the need for something like this going away anytime in the near future.Short & Sweet: This product lives up to the quality of all my other Samsung devices, and as always buying from Amazon is the way to go.",2454,0 +2455,"3 things that made this phone miss my 5 Star rating + +I am using this phone for over a month now and am very very pleased with it. It would have got 5-Star rating if not for the 3 design flaws with the phone.1. Kick Stand design can't be any worse. It is not firmly stuck in closed position. If Sony Ericsson couldn't get it right they should have skipped this hardware. It would have saved them money and made the phone feel more solid.2. Battery cover - like others said in the review doesn't feel firm. You can feel slight movement when you press fingers around the Sony Ericsson name on the back. It feels little annoying to see a well built phone choke on battery cover design. I first thought I got a bad phone and thought of exchanging it but after reading reviews here and other forums it looks like a pretty common not with just this phone but several SE phones. I put a paper folded above the battery and it solved this problem.3. The Call Button and End Call buttons are not positioned ergonomically. They are located little too far from the D-pad and it hurts the fingers to reach them from center.Good things about the phone:1. Looks way better than in pictures and is getting lot of compliments from everyone who sees the phone.2. Feels solid and super sexy. Easily the best slider phone I've seen.3. Bright screen and very readable even in bright sunlight.4. Came with lot of games, applications, and 8GB Memory Stick Micro.5. GPS reception, AT&T; 3G connection, WiFi connection - all are very good.6. First time I saw a 3.5mm audio output which is a great plus for me as I have several good headphones I can use.7. To compliment the 3.5mm audio output, this phone easily replaces my Zune 8GB during my workout sessions. Sounds just as good.8. The flash themes are very very good looking.9. Battery felt average the first few weeks but seem to have improved greatly after few weeks. I am heavy user of browser, office outlook emails, calendar, and songs listener and the phone easily lasts the entire day even after I talk on average over 60+ minutes.10. Works with my office Exchange Server to sync Outlook Email and Calendar as well as my Google mail.Amazon has the best price for this phone.TIP for W995a owners: Install Opera Mini 5 beta.

So I did a little investigating.It turns out that Samsung releases a different firmware update for every service provider in every country! This tells me a couple of things: 1) some updates will have less priority, depending on Samsung resources and user demand, and 2) updates will tail off rapidly as new products are brought to market - none of this long-term commitment you see with iPhone models.Well, I checked my phone, and it looks like it has firmware from a carrier in Chile.

It does not add much bulk to the phone . The best thing about the case is it compliments the phone, and allows the back of the phone to be showcased and it protects the front of the phone, when lying down because the case elevates the phone so the screen does not touch when lying it face down and the same thing on the back, it protects the #camera in the same way.Like a previous reviewer said it does cover the it blaster but Poetic knows about this and will ship you out a corrected case in May at no cost. This is great, and not every company would do so.My only knock on the case is it is very difficult to get on and off because of the right fit which I like.

(I went so far as to double-check the packaging to make sure I got the iPhone 4 version and not the old 3 version. Packaging says I got the right one, but I still wonder.)In landscape mode, it works pretty well; but in portrait mode the phone will very easily topple over backwards out of the iANGLE if touched, so I can really only use the stand with landscape-capable apps.Wrapping the cord works pretty well. It helps to wrap the cord at least somewhat loosely so the jack end does not have too much extra slack, otherwise there's nowhere to put it. I'd also have liked it if the stand cutout was set apart more from where the cord wraps, so I could use the stand without unwrapping the headphones every time.",2466,0 +2467,"Great quality + +My daughter needed an Otterbox for her iphone and this was the perfect fit. Good quality and fits and protects as well as the name brand product",2467,0 +2468,"Does the job! + +The product came in a speedy manner, 6 protectors in total. So far I only used one. I know a lot of people complained that they got a lot of bubbles when they applied the screen protector, but I believe they just don't know how to put on screen protectors properly (no offense). I was able to get the product on my phone with 0 bubbles. Most people don't know but the key to this is regular tape and a microfiber cloth.First wipe down the phone with the cloth, don't use napkins or paper towels because they always leave something behind. Event the microfiber cloth dosen't clean it 100%. After you think its clean, take a piece of tape and dab it all over the front of the screen, because there is debris that you can't see with your eyes which is what causes the bubbles. This should reduce the bubbles by 90-95% Now when you put the film use something flat like a credit card to slowly smooth the film down from the top -> bottom. As you do this you will notice a few bubbles on the way, don't panic! just slowly lift the film back up a bit, take another piece of tape and go over that spot on your phone AND the underside of the screen protector. Sometimes some particles stick to the film itself. The tape is stickier than the film, and should pick up the debris. Dont' be afraid to lift the screen back up. Then just continue smoothing it down with the card till you're finished.If you happen to accidenlty let go of the film and it goes down, just take a piece of tape and touch it to a corner and that should lift it back up. Also lifting the screen protector up and down won't make it lose its stickniess since the glass is clean. These are just helpful tips and tricks I've learned from applying screen protectors on multiple phones for my family members and friends over the years. Hope this helps!On a side note, I noticed that this screen protector is a bit more cloudy than my last one, which is why I only gave it 4 stars.",2468,0 +2469,"Tough phone option for US customers + +The many highlights and pitfalls of this phone are outlined in previous reviews. My intention with this review is to provide a quick check list of items that will allow you to decide if this phone is appropriate for your usage needs. Also, further down, I have provided the settings I used to enable the multimedia messaging features of this phone for the AT&T; network.Who this phone is for:- People unhappy with the current United States tough phone selection. It is highly limited on AT&T.;- People who are looking for primarily a calling and texting phone. Advanced media features are here, but not always available (if you are using AT&T;, you cannot get 3G speeds) and also clunky compared to true data featured phones. If you are on AT&T; and want data, this phone is not for you. If you are on Verizon, this phone will not work. If you are on T-Mobile, it would appear all features should work (however, I cannot attest to that statement personally).- People who do not wish to renew their 2 year contract, but still get an affordable phone. This phone was only slightly more than renewing my contract with AT&T; with a far inferior tough phone - the Samsung Rugby.As a previous user of the Samsung Rugby, I love tough phones. I use my phone for calling and texting. That's it. So the fact that this phone cannot use high speed data on AT&T; is of no consequence to me. If you are like me, and looking for an affordable and practical phone -- this is it.I love to go into the woods and not worry about my phone. And I love being able to leave my phone out around my nieces, nephews, and dogs and not worry if it will be broken. This phone is more than capable of handling all that abuse and more. Call quality is good, texting is very simple with T9 predictive text, and it boasts a wealth of little extras that make using the phone enjoyable. I'd recommend this phone over the Rugby hands down. Product arrived very quickly (less than 1 week) and boxed appropriately from HassleFreeCell. They included a US power adapter in the box, as the adapter that comes for this phone is not suited for US outlets. NOTE: There is no data cable in the box, but you can easily swap files with any Bluetooth enabled device.Now, unlocking the multimedia messaging takes some finesse. And here are the settings I used to get it to work on AT&T.;Go to: MENU > SETTINGS > NETWORK > CONNECTIONSCreate a new connection.SET NAME: Media NetACCESS NAME: wap.cingularAUTH TYPE: NormalUSER ID: (leave blank)PASSWORD: CINGULAR1 (all caps)Protocol: HTTPHOME URL: [...]PROXY ADDRESS: 66.209.11.32PORT: 80LINGER TIME: 300ADVANCED SETTINGSSTATIC IP: OffLOCAL PHONE IP: 0.0.0.0STATIC DNS: OffSERVER 1: 0.0.0.0SERVER 2: 0.0.0.0Traffic Class: SubscribedAfter you save this, go to APPLICATIONS > MESSAGES > MULTIMEDIA MESSAGES > MULTIMEDIA MESSAGE PROFILESAnd select the Media Net profile you have established. That's it! You should now have access to send and receive media text messages.UPDATED: Note I have encountered a quirk with this phone on the AT&T; network. Common with unlocked phones, I am unable to turn off the voicemail notification icon. I have no voicemails, and have tried all the usual phone tricks to remove it. After some searching, this seems to be an issue I'll have to live with.But it is a MINOR issue, as call reception, battery life, and durability have all surpassed my expectations.",2469,0 +2470,"Gone from android to this, so far so good + +-Had an android ""Sony Xperia Z"" for about a year now, modded with cyanogenmod firmware and then i changed to this 1320-First of, i'd like to say why i changed from android to this, then was it serving my expectations of not?-Sony Xperia Z:-=-=-=-=-=-=-=Android is great and all, but i had extremely bad times with its battery and connections.

I can definitely see the difference in youtube and facebook videos.-the verdict:-=-=-=-=-=-served the expectations i change it for i guess with so little drawbacks, i guess.-the bad:-=-=-=-didn't even expect the nokia to have such a poor app store, the choices are very limited, the presentation of apps is not as delightful as its rivals from apple and android app store, but i guess it is something that i have to live with, for a while at least.-One personal disappointment is there is no ""clash of clans"" yet on windows mobile app store.-=-=-=-edited:-=-=-=-the camera button is one irritating feature for sure, the mobile is huge and you usually would need to hold it from below several times, every time when this happens, whenever you are on your home screen or mobile software menu, the camera goes active, and you have to close it to continue whatever you were doing,,-the right side of the mobile is filled with buttons, camera, volume up and down, power button ,, surely they could cancel one of those or transferred it to the other side",2470,1 +2471,"Great product, very cute! + +Purchased this for my 11 year old daughter, she loves it as does all her friends.

Especially the standby button.-No camera flash issue. Generous oval shaped LCD and camera lens cut out.-Nice material. The plastic is dense. Rigid enough to protect and flexible enough to fit.Cons-Small connector openings. Aftermarket sync cables and headphones may not fit. Since the bottom of the case slides off, this is not too bad, just irritating. (Some cables that fit my wife's 3GS Otterbox defender won't fit this case!)-Surface shows greasy fingerprints. Kid's fingers make dark prints on the case, but they wipe off.-There are some mold seams that aren't as flush as what I would like. They don't detract from the looks of the case, but one side of the phone has a seam where my fingers normally are when talking that doesn't feel right. It's not really sharp, just noticeable and irritating.It's a good case. I don't think it's the best due to the molding problems and the unusually small sync connector opening.

It charges in the same amount of time as the standard charger that came with the phone, i.e. 3 to 4 hours with a run down battery. However, the LED's on the device are useless. They say that the battery was charged in 20 minutes, and the instructions say you should believe them vs the indicator on your phone. It would be impossible to charge a completely drained battery in 20 minutes, so my advice would be to believe what your phone is telling you and leave it in the charger until the phone tells you the charging is complete.

The zBoost is #1 on Amazon in the celluar signal booster category while the Wilson Electronics Desktop Booster is #2.We could not decide which one to purchase for our mountain cabin so we ended up ordering both units and put them to the test. For our mountain cabin, we get 2-3 bars outside and can make calls and get data connections. Because the cabin has a metal roof, 6"" walls and heavy insulation, we could not get any signal inside the cabin, so calls and data connections were impossible.We installed the Wilson Electronics Desktop Booster first. The yagi directional antenna was installed at the roof peak and the booster with inside antenna installed next to the TV in the living room. After powering up the unit, this is the coverage we achieved inside the cabin using an iPhone in test mode:iPhone next to inside antenna:4-5 bars (-70dBm)Speedtest: 190ms ping, .8 - 1.5 Mbps data transferiPhone 8 feet away from inside antenna in same room:3 bars (-89dBm)Speedtest: 227ms ping, .8 - 1.4 Mbps data transferiPhone in bedroom 30 feet away:1 bar (-106dBm)Speedtest: No ping, no data transferWe then tested the zBoost YX545 cellular booster. Like others who have reviewed this unit. The coax cable which comes with it is a joke, way too thin. So to make a fair test, we used the same coax cable which we used with the Wilson Electronics cellular booster. We installed the zBoost antenna to the existing coax in the same location at the peak of the roof, and the zBoost booster in the living room at the other end. After powering up the unit, this is the coverage we achieved inside the cabin using an iPhone in test mode:iPhone next to inside antenna:4-5 bars (-66dBm)Speedtest: 205ms ping, .8 - 1.13 Mbps data transferiPhone 8 feet away from inside antenna in same room:4 bars (-73dBm)Speedtest: 230ms ping, .4 - .55 Mbps data transferiPhone in bedroom 30 feet away:1 bar (-106dBm)Speedtest: No ping, no data transferWhat we found is the coverage for both units is the same, one room. The number of coverage bars and dBm's were also the same, but for some reason the Wilson Electronics unit achieved higher data rates using Speedtest.We ended up keeping the Wilson Electronics Desktop Booster due to the higher data rate and better name brand but the zBoost YX545 would have been acceptable for our use as well. Neither unit provided whole house coverage which would have required spending a lot more money to achieve.",2494,0 +2495,"So good, yet flawed + +There are many things to love about this stand. It looks sharp, and works just as well. I appreciate the materials and craftsmanship, and I also love the viewing angle.However, I do not like that it uses a proprietary plug rather than the ubiquitous Micro-USB standard. I understand now (thanks, Eric) that this is due to the power requirements of running 3 induction coils rather than the typical one found in most Qi devices, but it means that it requires running at least this one cable. I also do not like that the supply side of that cable is so wide that two could not be placed side by side on on power strip. For many this will mean shuffling things on a power strip, or perhaps having to rerun existing cables to accommodate it. These aspects of the device are simply inconsiderate.",2495,0 +2496,"Great! + +I was still scared to put it in the water after we tested it twice....it worked great! Great deal for price",2496,0 +2497,"Best phone ever + +Well after reading many reviews for this phone and looking at 2 other phones for consideration and taking several days before deciding I did decide to go with the LG 840G phone and I am so glad that I did. I love, love, love this phone. It is everything that I wanted and more. One review said that the phone was slick and easy to drop but I have not noticed that I am however still going to buy a case just to add color though. It has a camera, video and recorder, voicemail etc. The touchscreen is amazing and easy to use. The phone as many features and I am still learning how to use some of them. I went online and activated my phone and changed my number over from my old phone to my new phone with no problems at all. Something I did learn though is that if you have less then 10 minutes tracfone will not transfer those minutes but I did get 30 minutes so I didn't lose out on any minutes I got extra minutes and extra days added also. I did not have any problems at all getting everything set up. I don't know if I can transfer my contacts or not or if I have to enter them again but either way I don't have many so that's not a problem for me but it may be for some. My phone is just for emergencies and for my husband and mom to get a hold of me and texting is for my friends. My voicemail transferred over so I didn't have to set that up again. My thumbs are a little fat so texting is a little bit slower for me but it would of been the same with a keypad and not a touchscreen. The phone arrived on the day I was told that it would by UPS. I would order from this seller again. Amazon is a amazing place to shop and I have started shopping there a lot. I have found there prices to be mostly cheaper on things and a lot of things with free shipping or low shipping. Some of the reviews I read didn't give this phone as many stars as I did but lets remember folks this is a tracfone with no contract not a smartphone. If you want a smartfone then you need to get a smartphone but if you are looking for something to make calls and text etc. easy with no contract this is a great phone. I have not tried to check emails or anything like that yet to see how that works as I am low on minutes and am getting ready to buy more from Amazon. I almost went with a slider but am so glad that I went with this one instead. I am going to buy a larger GB Micro chip for recording and also a USB cable so I can just connect my phone to the USB cable and then to the computer to upload my video's. Even though you don't have to take the battery out to get to the chip you do still have to remove the cover and why bother when you can get a cable online from Amazon for $2.89 and free shipping. I am also going to buy a protective cover to keep the face from getting scratched. Again why not when you can get 5 of them for $6.50 and free shipping. Better than replacing your phone because of scratches. Tracfone minutes are also cheaper online even though you have to pay shipping. I have found everything that I want at Amazon cheaper than Walmart or anywhere else. One stop shopping. This phone may not please everyone but you know the saying you can't please everyone but this phone does please me. I can't say enough good things about Tracfone for selling this type of phone and the seller who sells it shopcelldeals and Amazon. They all have pleased me. I hope that this review will help someone else who is looking to buy a tracfone. The reviews that I read helped me a lot to make my decision. Also the price is so reasonable $39.99 and the triple minutes are great also.",2497,0 +2498,"Really excellent case!!!!!!!!!!! + +This case is excellent.

Both iPhone 4S and iPad work with car (Toyota) audio system.",2503,0 +2504,"Set accurate expectations re: breakage + +I think you have to go into this purchase with eyes wide open, setting realistic expectations about the breakage rate of these case covers. The case covers come in two pieces that snap on to the front and back of the phone. They are not rubber and they don't claim to be. The description of plastic cases with rubberized surface is accurate although I'd add they seem only ""slightly"" rubberized. BE AWARE, they are NOT anything like the durable soft rubber silicone skins that many people put on their ipods so don't expect that. The cases sold here will break. Because of the shape of the phone, the plastic is thin in places. They are vulnerable to cracking on the thin sides (usually the cover for the front is the one to break) and on the little tabs that keep them attached to the phone. On average, I break one of these about every 6-10 weeks but I've had one last over 9 months too. Keep in mind, you could break one in a week of putting it on the phone or have it last quite some time. A lot of it is going to depend on how you treat your phone. When I put my phone in my purse, I usually keep it in a padded zippered bag. When I do that, the cases last longer but when I toss the phone in my purse and it repeatedly knocks up against other objects, then the cases break more quickly. I've dropped my phone on a few occasions and at night, my cat has been known to enjoy knocking my phone off my nightstand. Surprisingly, my cases have never broken at those times but just when in my purse. In my opinion, the covers do their job in that at worst, the cover will crack rather than the phone. Honestly, I believe the review about going through 3 cases in 4 days has to be a total exaggeration. Unless you are banging your phone against rocks or sitting on it, I can't imagine how someone could do that! At the same time, it's unrealistic to think that these cases are going to last forever. The fact that they sell eight in a pack is a big clue. They aren't doing that just so one can accessorize the cover with clothes but because they have a limited life expectancy. You get what you pay for and they are super cheap at $1 per cover. Before I found these packs online, I paid $5 for one at a local store so I think this is about as cheap as you will find them. If you want a case cover that is going to last forever, I'd look elsewhere. I have yet to find a silicone rubber cover for this particular phone but that would be the more durable option. The cover colors are mostly quite nice. I don't love the yellow and white but that is a matter of personal preference. I have not had any problems with chipping or the color wearing off or bleeding. Like anything else, the sheen does dull a bit with time and wear and probably due to oil from our skin. I have noticed some slight variation in the fit only in the sense that some covers snap on easily while others you have to press a tiny bit harder when first putting them on. I also have never had a problem with them staying on the phone. You have to make sure it really is snapped on properly but once it is, it should stay put until you take it off to change it or get a crack.",2504,0 +2505,"Microsoft on a cell phone?

I protected the phone in an expensive Otterbox Defender Series case. The problem is the phone won't transmit my voice to the other end while talking on the phone. The other user only hears what sounds like a phone that has made a pocket dial and some one is walking with the phone in their pants instead of hearing my voice.Apart from the one way audio failure which is extremely frustrating, the phone can't be taken to Sprint for repair as it is a closed phone, the case cannot be open.No expandable SD card slot and the battery life is poor (probably because the screen is so big) are two big downers.Pros:+Vibrant OLED screen+Sleek sexy aluminum case+Beats Audio+Powerful Quad Core Processor+Awesome camera+HTC Live feed is pretty niceCons:-Phone won't transmit my voice when making calls.

It's a simple amplification chamber that uses the sound your internal speak would produce anyway. Because the iPhone's speaker is not really intended to be a stereo system there is a lot of missing bass, and a very tinny sound. For audio books, podcasts, and phone calls, this is perfectly fine.

The answer? Earphones, right? Through trial and error I found I wanted/needed a mono earphone (because I found it uncomfortable to lay on one of the earphones, or have it dangling about). I found earphones with fancy devices to attach it to your ear were uncomfortable for me. As a matter of fact many of the modern ear buds themselves were uncomfortable, I guess I must have small ear canals. I went to a few stores (like radio shack, etc) looking for the oooold, white, plastic, simple, cone shaped mono earphones used with old transistor radios. No store I went to had them, so I was happy to find them on Amazon. Plug it in to the computer, plug it in your ear, (it has a 6 foot cord) and it works perfectly for less than 2 bucks (OK and S&H;). Will it last for ever? Probably not, but it has held up well the last couple of months, and for the price I'm OK if I have to replace it once a year or so.",2519,0 +2520,"Very Good Phone with Very Few Faults + +I've used the AT&t; Avail for a while now and can give a good review of it's quality and features. Just to give a bit of background, I've used iPhones and Samsungs for a while and can offer a good comparison.First, you're using the Android system and you'll have to decide for yourself if it's what you like, as opposed to Samsung and iPhone, which are quite different. Me personally, I like them all, but the Apple will have less customization, but beyond that, as a phone and PPA device, they all work very well. I would say, I give a slight edge to Android, but not enough to keep me from buying the others.Second, performance is the number one thing on most people's mind when they buy any phone, so here we go. Call quality is far above average. I've read about the crystal clear call quality of the iPhone 4S, but in use, this phone is as good or better. Seldom do I notice muffled voices of callers, and even then, I'm not sure they're not holding the phone too close or too far from their mouths. It's not something you can blame on the phone. The Avail has a more balanced sound, as opposed to the slightly tinny sound of an iPhone. If you like Samsung, you'll love the Avail, nuff said. The OS is snappy and there are no annoying lags. Moving around the system is both intuitive and easy. There's just not much to dislike about Android. You won't find any annoying omissions of features or weird menus here, all is as it should be. Android has some really cool apps and widgets to add to your phone, that make it easier to do some things, even though the standard way is surely nice, but you do have the option to change almost anything your heart's desire, not so with iPhone. So, in this respect, it is far ahead of Apple, but then again, the iPhone works fine too, so it's a small advantage, but noticeable.The Avail's call sound is capable of being quite loud, and even my hardness of hearing isn't a problem. The external speaker is adequately loud and very usable for speaker phone calls. I've used it often with not a single complaint. It's better than most by a long shot.Connectivity is pretty good really, with only a few dropped calls, which in most cases, I would say were dropped by the other phone I was talking to. Sometimes it's really hard to tell which phone actually pulled the plug on a call, so I've not experienced any more call problems than with any other phone. iPhone 3G may, and I say MAY have just slightly better connectivity, but I can't tell for sure, so the difference is not enough to get excited about.Web and appps are more easily and diverse on Android than Apple to my mind, but again, if you're a dyed in the wool iPhone user, then you like their apps and there's certainly nothing wrong with that. It all works about the same, it's just a bit different. No complaints here for the Avail.The Avail has a very, very nice touch screen system that is easily mastered and quite responsive without being prone to mistakes. It is really easy to type, and maneuver the phone and apps without making mistakes. You'll find no complaints here either. I have huge hands and can type text messages without making a single mistake most of the time. It's very well engineered in this respect. The screen on the Avail is 3.5"" diagonal and very nice indeed. You'll see some reviews saying it lacks resolution, but you will NEVER see it when looking at the phone, it's simply beautiful, and text is crisp and sharp. I have no complaints at all with it. Viewing in direct sunlight is good, if not great, but highly usable for sure. One review I read said the Avail lacked auto brightness, but that is not true, it has it, and it's easily found and set, so I can't imagine where that came from, probably just a mistaken reviewer.The Avail has some nice features in addition to it's ordinary PPA device features. For one, voice control, similar to Apple's Siri, and it works just as well for me. Maybe I speak clearly or something, bu it seldom doesn't understand me. I even tried some mild curse words and it was able to understand them and enter them in text messages with the *** in the appropriate places, when you turn on the feature to mask known curse words in text. How cool is that? Voice calling is equally easy. It's a neat feature, and it works well for me, but I would guess it would respond to some voices and dialects differently, who knows.All in all the Avail is quite a phone. The neat thing is it's a Go Phone from AT&T; and it doesn't change your rate plan a bit, or even count as an upgrade, again really cool. I'm using mine on my regular rate plan. The Avail is made by ZTE, and I've had ZTE phones before, and find them very well made and of great quality. I did have a cheap, basic ZTE phone die on me, but I carried it at work and abused it unmercifully, so I doubt the phone was at fault, but who knows.If you're thinking about the latest phones, one word of caution for us men. Most of the latest batch of super phones are so large, you'll be stuck trying to find a way to carry them. I love how in computers we couldn't wait for large screens, then in phones it was to see how small they could make them and now we're trying to go large screen on them too. The Avail is about as large a phone as I'd want to carry on a daily basis. It is exactly the same size in all dimentions as the iPhone 3, they could be twins, so they're just the right balance between view-ability and carry-ability.Does the Avail have faults, yes, but they're common and minor. The screen smudges easily, but not a lot more than an iPhone, so no biggie, and it may be me. Other than that, I can't really think of anything that holds this phone back. I've tried everything on it, trying to complain, and it just does everything well.Day to day use of the Avail is quite nice, with no annoying things you must do to use it. Wake up, sleep, calls, texting and web are all easily done with no weird annoyances as with some phones. The Avail has not bad habits that I can find so far, and I've tried everything I can think of.I highly recommend the Avail, especially to those who're not lured by the latest hype of great phones. It does it all with little fanfare, and you'll love it. I can't think of a single thing that would keep this phone from getting 5-stars. Other phones my have more features, or bigger screens, or whatnot, but the Avail uses it's hardware nicely and does a fine job.EDITED REVIEW ADDITIONS:Now that I've had the phone for a while and have installed and uninstalled apps and played with it, I though I'd add some more to the review.First, battery life is only about average. When you do a lot it goes down fast. Who wouldn't have expected that? I have a pal with a Samsung SII and it literally eats it's battery before noon, so compared to it, the Avail is very good. Compared to an iPhone 4S, it's a bit worse, so it's average I guess.The OS is pretty fast and responsive on this phone, no huge lags at all. If you've used an iPhone 3G, then you know what lag is, this has none, as far as I can see, it's as good as the iPhone 4S in the speed category. Apps load and unload pretty fast, no complaints.The screen is nice and bright, I can see it in bright sunlight well and have no complaints. It is a beautiful display, if not the best, hi res out there.Pre-loaded apps are pretty good from At&T.; I use Places, Maps, QR scanner, Music player and all the utilities, so good choice At&t.; I haven't figured out what Data Balance is yet, but no biggie.One slight negative is the voice quality over the earphone. It's not bad, just a tad muffled, or rough, hard to describe. It's usually easily understood, but sometimes noticable. I often wonder if it's not the other phone I'm talking to, but it's something to be aware of. Not a huge negative, and certainly nothing to keep me from buying this phone. Loudspeaker is quite good and easily understood, very usable for phone calls. I rate it far above most of the phones I've tried. Both the earphone and speaker have plenty of volume, which is nice for a 'hard of hearing' guy like me.Internal storage could be a problem on the avail if you're into tons of apps. I've got a bunch on mine right now and have around 27-35mb free. There's plenty of memory to run apps, but internal storage is very close. You can put a lot of apps on your SD card, but most of the really good, useful apps need phone storage to work properly. I think most users will be fine, but the real app hungry folks, will need to pick and choose. As I said, I have a bunch on mine, but any more and I'll have to start removing some. The phone is still very useful and I really didn't leave much off of mine, but again, it's something to be aware of. I guess this is how you save money. This would definitely not stop me from buying or using the Avail.Overall, this is a fine phone. I don't know who posted they didn't need a data plan, but you do with At&t;, but, hey, that's what a smartphone does! The Avail does everytihng well without costing you your kids college money to do it. Unless you just have to have the latest, greatest smartphone, (and there's certainly nothing wrong with that!), then the Avail is a good option.

It's a disaster!!!!!!",2525,0 +2526,"Good concept, stylish aesthetics, but some issues + +This is one of the new cases sporting Pong technology. According to the manufacturer, the Pong technology reduces radiation by a substantial amount, and directs it out the back of the phone, away from your head.The instructions say that if you wear the phone on your body (e.g. in a pocket), to turn the screen side toward you. Since most of us do carry our phones in a pocket, I hope that this ""fix"" is true, and that the concept really works just the same way when the phone is worn on the body.I can't really review whether the Pong technology has worked, of course, but no brain cancer so far (knock on wood, ha). I'll just say 5/5 on this part, and hope that the independent lab tests are truthful.As for the case design and manufacturing, I do have a vew issues that keep this from being a great case.1) Screen-side lip: the lip of the case rises around 1/3 of an inch off the screen on the sides, and comes in all the way to the actual screen (as opposed to the built-in bevel). This means that when dragging items to the edge of the screen, tapping items near the edge, and typing near the edge, you end up with an awful lot of errors. It's pretty annoying and makes a considerable difference in an every-day sort of way.2) Lower lip near button - The strip of rubber that's located just under the Home button (and above the USB connector) is very flimsy and loose. Bad design/testing here. It wobbles and feels weak, almost like a loose piece of skin, anytime you touch it (which you do, often, since it's near the home button). It should be tout and strong. Makes the case feel cheap. Sometimes ""catches"" your finger/hand and collapses/folds downwards away from the case.3) Volume/vibrate button - a lesser issue that the previous two, but this button is a bit difficult to reach.Style - pretty simple on the front and sides. The back has a neat appearance that's among the best I've seen. Sort of stylish and slightly edgy, while remaining sophisticated and solid looking.All in all, a good case, and potentially a really great asset to have, health-wise, if the claims about reducing SARs are correct.

There is one cut out for the camera and flash which is perfectly aligned and also serves as a protector. The speaker cut out is perfectly symmetrical and perfect spacing all around. The buttons for the power and the volume rocker feel a little hard to push, but hopefully will 'loosen' up with time. Even if the remain hard to push, its not something to complain about. The microphone cut out is not centered, but is not blocked by the white rubber, but is an irrelevant ""flaw"". The cutout for the micro usb is perfectly cut out and even fits the less slim micro usb cables(I'm using one).

This is a beauty. Perfectly sized for the desktop, it is simple and clean. Your Phone or Note fits the proprietary male plug (Micro USB Jack Connector) easily and there are four different cradles to attach to your gdock depending on what device you have.The stereo speakers (3"" each) have an arguably better sound (both treble, midrange and bass) than the iHome desktops and I own two. It matches the sound of theGrace Digital MatchStick (GDI-GFD7200) Charging Speaker Dock for Kindle Fire - Portrait and Landscape Modesin that department. There is a wafer thin remote that only adjusts the volume, bass, treble and EQ (resets to factory equalizer setting) as well as the power. The back of the gdock has two Bass Ports and that is what gives it such a strong firm bass. You'll want these exposed in the back and not on the bottom of the unit.The gdock is attractively sleek with a black fabric finish. The docks rotate and lock from 38 degrees to 50 degrees depending on how you want your device to look. You can even choose two positions to set your entire gdock - although it's only a matter of an inch or two differences. The power light is a tiny blue LED and is hard to see unless it is very dark.The power connector is one of those double cables with a black box the size of a cigarette case, but that's fairly minor. You can charge your device and battery when the gdock is plugged into a wall source, but it won't charge your device (phone) from just the gdock battery. The back has a battery door for the OPTIONAL lithium battery which is sold separately. I did not get one, but it is supposed to last up to six hours.If you want to plug another device into your gdock, there is the standard 3.5mm insert in the back. An Aux-In cable is supplied for this.The price is comparable to any other docking units on the market, but I think the selling point for the gdock is the multiple cradles included and the absolutely great sound.

I have never had trouble typing on a QWERTY key board but this was impossible. 99% of the time I would hit the key next to it or both together. It severely slowed down typing speed because I always had to go back and correct. The screen is super small. It was very hard to read email and attachments. Browsing the web was just a waste of time because of its slowness and tendency to lock up, and don't get me started on rebooting the phone. It took around 5 minutes to restart. This may be normal for a Blackberry but seriously? The call quality was equally bad, especially when using the speaker. Never heard more crackling and distortion.

I haven't hooked it up to an oscilloscope to look at the output YET.My problem here is that the adapter was marketed either by Amazon or by the seller as being for the LaCrosse BC1000 charger/analyzer. It *might* even work for that purpose, but checking with LaCrosse, I got an email back from their Customer Service that says:"With regard to the following from your email: "If you could look further into the AccuPower Car adapter or please refer me to a car adapter of your own for the BC1000"Unfortunately, there are no car adapaters that can be advised for use with the BC1000 as it is intended for home/standard outlet use. Our BC500 model is designed with car use in mind, and can also work at home. Again, with regard to "AccuPower", we have no information on that brand. You noted a BC800 and information attained from an Austrailian source. There are variant models of our product that are produced for areas outside of North America. The BC800 would be one of these. Thank you."Obviously, somebody somehow somewhere made a connection between this adapter and the LaCrosse equipment *apparently* without bothering to ask LaCrosse. That's a bad idea - without some coordination there could be issues with the adapter causing damage to the charger and from a warranty perspective, such use probably voids the warranty.A side note: The AccuPower charger/analyzer that was listed, IQ328, sure looks a lot and by its Owners Manual, operates a lot like the LaCrosse BC1000. Considering the way that so much consumer electronics 'comes from the same factory with different names on it' who knows, they could come off virtually the same assembly line. I have run into cases where this is literally true with some Amateur Radio equipment.If anyone has any verifiable knowledge of this being the case with the LaCrosse and AccuPower equipment, please follow up to my review and we can check back with both LaCrosse and AccuPower customer service and try and nail this down with regard to using the car adapter.",2539,0 +2540,"not what I thought it was + +I don't use it in my drawer it's not what I thought it was I guess you could say it was a misunderstanding so really not there fault but a waste of money on my end",2540,1 +2541,"The Medal Plate Does not Have the Button Circuits + +Hello,Product shipped well and was reasonably priced, but it is missing the button ""circuitry"" and therefore will not work unless you remove the medal plate from the new mid frame and replace it with the ""stuff"" from the old mid frame.

From everything I heard and saw in the video reviews, I thought this was FINALLY going to be THE speaker. I waited what seemed an eternity for the 3/21 release date and then waited by the door today for my UPS man (who was 5 hours late)! So, suffice it to say, I was anxious to put this speaker through the paces.Pairing was quick and easy. The sound is one of the best I've heard from a speaker of this size. I love the look and heavy duty feel! So, why don't I like it? The volume is way less than anticipated! It definitely doesn't, "". . .deliver a clean 95 dB sound pressure level, filling large rooms and outdoor areas with rich immersive sound"", as stated in their ads. This speaker is perfect for a small office or desktop use but I wouldn't expect it to fill a large room or entertain outdoors.I have a Scosche BTSPK1 speaker (about $40) that I have been using as my benchmark when I try other speakers (because it's the best combo of sound and volume I've found so far). I put these two speakers head to head and the tiny, single speaker Scosche was consistently about 5db louder (that's quite a bit) than the Fugoo (measured from same location with the same music). Admittedly, the Fugoo sounds better at low volumes but not nearly 200-dollars better! I wanted something louder than my tiny Scosche, not bigger and quieter!I was under the impression that the Fugoo was being marketed to the active 20-30-something crowd who wanted something louder and better sounding than the competition. This isn't it! While the sound quality is very good, the volume is a real downer. This speaker will not entertain a room-full of partying friends (unless they're not very talkative or the room is small). Loud volume on the Fugoo is not loud at all and often gets very distorted. When you're partying outside or in a room full of people, volume counts! I didn't bother trying this outside because the inside volume was such a disappointment.Fugoo definitely has the right idea when it comes to low volume sound, style and portability but they've got to make it louder. If this speaker was $100, I'd be giving it a 5-star rating, but when you hit $200, I raise the bar on my expectations. I'll be returning this and hoping that their next generation of speakers picks up where this leaves off.UPDATE:I purchased the UE Boom speaker to replace this Fugoo. I had debated between the two for a while before purchasing the Fugoo. After the Fugoo failed so miserably at meeting my expectations, I purchased the UE Boom. Now that I have the UE Boom, I don't think I'll be going back to a Fugoo. If you're interested in a comparison, read on:I was expecting the Fugoo to win in every category of sound tests, from quality to volume. Unfortunately, the Fugoo only shined in two categories: style and sound at low to moderate volume. High volume on the Fugoo was downright awful!At first look, the UE Boom is much smaller than expected - about the size of those larger energy drink cans with the bull on them. It's slightly smaller than the Fugoo Tough. Like the Fugoo, the UE Boom paired instantly with my iPod and Droid without any issue or delay. As soon as the UE Boom paired, I was directed to download the UE Boom app which allows equalizer setup and dual speaker setup if you have two UE Booms.After hearing the disappointing low maximum volume on the Fugoo, I was shocked as I was blasted out of my seat with the UE Boom! Impressive! Make no mistake, the Boom will NOT replace a full home stereo setup but you can't beat the volume and sound for a tiny portable speaker! The Fugoo was only impressive for entertaining me at my desk.The UE Boom has very good sound quality. At low volume, I did like the Fugoo's sound a bit better - it was a tad more crisp and clear. To be fair though, the UE Boom is no slouch in the sound quality department! The Fugoo crashed hard at max volume . . .it became distorted and was not really good or desirable at full volume. The UE Boom performs remarkably at max volume and slips only a bit . . .there is no distortion, only a slightly noticeable decrease in fullness on the UE Boom at max volume.The Fugoo is waterproof to 3ft.

The external speakers (one on front and one on back) have good power, but since the one on the back faces away from you its not the best place to put it. The screen is nice and big, but the phone is very thin and light. I have no problem fitting it in my pocket. All of the software seems to run fast on it. Youtube videos are flawless, and when you rotate the phone into landscape the video takes you the whole screen. I have also copied a WMV video from my desktop and that also played well. There is an LED light on the front that lights up when you get a voice message, email or text and I like that feature a lot. The headphones that come with it are good. I have big ears and it still seals well. There are buttons on the cord that allow you to change the volume and I think there is also a built in mic but a haven't tried to use it yet. I havent' used the camera so I can't say how good it is. Call quality is very good. Battery life seems ok if you only turn on the LTE when you need it. If you leave LTE on all day it chews up the battery. It does take a few hours to charge the battery so I try not to let the battery drain all the way down.",2563,1 +2564,"Decent case, but damaging my phone + +This case does a great job, but in my case there was a small price to pay for that. The Nexus 4 has glass on the front and the back, but the sides of the phone are rubber. My phone went into this case the first day that I got it. I took it out of the case to clean it a few days ago and realized that the rubber on the exterior of the phone was bubbling up and breaking off of the phone. Now there are small patches where the rubber once was. If you are going to order this case, I advise that you buy a full body protector prior to use.

I bought this phone unlocked and it was incredibly easy to set up with AT&T.; I just brought it into one of the stores and they set everything up at no charge. Beware that the SIM card required is a micro-SIM card, so you will need to get this changed out if you're going to use AT&T.; I've heard that they sometimes charge, but they didn't charge me anything when I went in. The nice lady at the store also warned me that the internet sometimes doesn't work with unlocked phones, but this one works just fine.-Battery life. This phone has the longest battery life of any smartphone I've ever used. I expected it to be around 70% at least by the end of the day, but my charge never dropped below 85%. Of course I use the power saver feature to dim the backlighting and an app killer to keep the running programs down, but with just those two things I was able to preserve my battery for at least two days before I needed to charge it. And that's including dozens of text messages, some light Wi-Fi use and feature-browsing. It also charges very quickly.-Attractive. I love the clear illuminated bar on the bottom. I have gotten several comments on how nice and different this phone looks. The display screen is bright, colorful and most importantly, shatter-resistant. Of course I bought a screen protector as soon as I could because I'm klutz. Also, the Android OS WILL automatically upgrade when you turn on either the data internet or Wi-Fi. It updated just fine for me and I have all of the apps and games I want on it.-Customizability. There are tons of settings and options on this phone to customize just about everything to your liking.Now onto the Cons...-Sound. I found that the speakerphone is too quiet. When I'm in my car, I have to plug it into my iPod jack so that I can hear it over the car stereo because it's too quiet otherwise. Music and sounds play loud enough to shake the phone, but for some reason the speakerphone is weak.-Back, Home & Menu buttons. After a few months of owning this phone the buttons have gotten difficult to press. Sometimes they don't respond at all. You don't have to push them hard to get them to work, but you have to find the "sweet spot". Other times you can just hover over them without even touching them and it counts as a key press.-Swipe function when texting. Maybe there's a workaround for this, but I haven't found it yet without having to disable the swipe function completely. When you swipe and go to choose the word, sometimes the cursor will be over the word you want to choose. Like, totally blocks the word so you move the cursor all over but can't actually choose the word. I have to backspace the whole word and retype it letter by letter. It's EXTREMELY annoying for someone who texts a lot, and it makes me want to type everything letter by letter, which I find incredibly difficult on this phone. The keyboard is really tiny for me, even though I have small hands, and I end up fudging almost every other word up.Overall I would rate this a 4 out of 5. The more annoying aspects can be ignored for the rest of the excellent features this phone has. I would definitely recommend it to someone who wants something different.",2569,0 +2570,"Good stuff! + +I've used these on several different smart phones and have never been disappointed.They do get scratched up after several months, so it's great that these come in a three pack.These have a matte finish which decreases the screen brightness a tiny bit, but they also don't get oily or smudged up as the glossy ones.",2570,0 +2571,"So far... + +The bad news : because this thing sticks far out of the back of the phone, it needs to use their non-standard battery cover which is included. The battery cover is also adequate (has headphone and mic holes,ect)... but the #1 problem I'm having now is that my otterbox case won't fit it, and I can't find ANY cases that will fit it... So, since I really can't afford to carry my phone around work sites all day without a case, I'm not even really able to put this to use at all yet... Also, even if you can go caseless, any time you pull off their battery cover, be ready for the battery to come flying out along with it.The good news : it got here quick, fit the phone and worked fine, well for the few hours of use I got from it before deciding it wasn't feasible to go without a case.I won't give them lower than a 4 for this, because liion high capacity batteries usually have similar size issues (it looks like any existing high capacity battery for this phone will), but pay close attention to the photos - if you think your rubber case will stretch to fit it, you're out of luck.",2571,0 +2572,"Solid and bulky case + +If you are an accidental dropper, thrower, fumbler of your phone and need to have a protective case on it (not just a flimsy shell), this one will do the job. It looks good and, most importantly, Allows you to not worry what will happen if you knock the phone off the night stand. You won't worry about accidents with the phone. It is plenty of protection and for that reason I would never move up to the Defender series because of the added bulk without much greater protection.The only downside is that the case turns a phone very comfortable to hold and use one-handed into a phone that while still usable that way, feels a little like a brick. That's the trade-off any time you add a real case. Also access to ports is a bit of a hassle but not enough to cause you to not buy the case. Can't say anything bad otherwise. It's an Otterbox.

This was, unfortunately, not the case. In fact, I was later told that it is possible that no European cell phones will reach their full potential (i.e. 3G or beyond) on an American network. Not being a techy, I am not sure if that is true, but the main problem with this phone is that it would not go beyond 2G regardless of my coverage.

I have abandoned the desk except for income tax, filing and bills since retiring. If a cover doesn't support that, it is worthless to me. This one does.

I got it from Amazon also. There are some odd pictures of the slim-fit cover on Amazon at the moment, and it was a little hard to tell what would happen if you opened in the notebook/folio mode and used it on your lap. The prop drops a little, with flexible hinge, but it is in a usable position. It works even better on the Prop 'n Go, and is more stable. It also folds nicely with the strap nit tablet mode on the lap desk and closes nicely with the strap either with or without the type keyboard attached.Manvex also has a popular cover, but I like this one better. It exposes bore of the tablet skin for cooling, but is attractive and the corners protect the tablet from damage in case of a fall. Nice color choices too. I recommend the Moko Slim-fit if you need a ""lapable"" cover.",2579,0 +2580,"Pretty good + +The incredisonic IFM-500 works very well. Crystal clear sound from my iPhone 5 is played through the device to my car stereo FM radio. There's no interference from other radio stations or from cell signals - just great.

It was easy for the device to select an FM station, which displays clearly on the LED screen. THe spring-loaded clip that holds the phone is very snug and holds the phone securely. In my car, a VW Golf, the cigarette lighter fit is a little loose, but there have been no issues with this so far. Now, things that could be better: 1) I have to use my USB iPod cable to charge the phone. It plugs into the device and it works fine, it's just another step to remember when putting the phone in the cradle. 2) The other thing that happened within days of owning the device, the cover over the LED readout and buttons came off. It's attached by two screws from the back side of the device and two clips on one side of the cover. The screws were simply not installed. I found some suitable screws and fixed it myself.

Highly Recommended + +I've had the new Galaxy 3 for a few days and it has really grown on me. I upgraded from the Galaxy S (Captivate) which I loved as my first smartphone but I got it as a free refurbished model so it had a few issues (nonfunctioning GPS and random hiccups and restarts here and there). I was a bit wary of sticking to Samsung after having a bit of trouble with the previous Galaxy model. Despite the hiccups of my personal copy of the Galaxy S, I decided to give the III a try.After opening up the beautiful box that the Galaxy III arrives in, I was a bit dismayed that the phone seemed a bit flimsy. To insert the battery and SIM card, you basically have to pry off the cheap plastic back cover with your fingernails. It seemed a bit strange, especially since the Galaxy S had a sliding metal cover and was built like a hockey puck. This is my one main complaint about the III. The Galaxy S is going on strong after two years of drops and falls without any protective casing but I don't feel that the III can sustain such heavy abuse. I'm sure it will survive a few accidents but I don't think I'm comfortable subjecting it to my previous carelessness with its predecessor. After sticking the battery in, the casing feels a bit more solid and the back cover locks in tightly.Also, memory expansion and replaceable battery gave the III an edge over other new smartphone models. The III also comes with a nice set of headphones/mic and of course a charger.In terms of size, it is pretty obvious that the III has a much more screen space and is much larger than the Galaxy S and many other smartphones. I have small hands/fingers but I was able to manipulate the Galaxy S with one hand. Not so with the III but that's hardly something worth complaining about. The screen is big and beautiful. Colors are crisp and the contrast is very good. I think the screen isn't as bright at the Galaxy S screen but it is still an improvement as the colors aren't as jarring.The phone runs rather nicely. It's very smooth and I feel intuitive. Coming from Android Gingerbread, ICS isn't too much of a change. Switching tasks is a breeze and it is noticeably faster than the Galaxy S. It also outperforms my boyfriend's Motorola Atrix 4G which also has dual-core (though, it is now two years old). We ran the same tasks and app on the both the phones and they have parallel performance. Additionally, a Quadrant Test ran at 4758 (if that means anything to you). The Atrix tested at 2091.Another reviewer complained that the phone ran hot. I didn't really see this as an issue with my copy. It does warm up a bit but no more than the original Galaxy S and not to any concerning level.The S Voice is a nice addition and works surprisingly well. I've never tried an iPhone or Siri so I can't compare. S Voice is a nice touch but I felt a bit slower than expected. It is far more accurate and intelligent than whatever voice function the Galaxy S had. It is very sensitive to a fault so it will attempt to decipher any kind of utterance (so no thinking out loud!) There are a few things that are pretty gimmicky like the Smart Stay which is supposed to keep the screen active while your face is watching it. We felt that this feature was unnecessary and may be a potential battery drain since it will recognize your face even if you aren't actually looking at the phone. It may be a useful feature for movie viewing. Fortunately, this feature can be easily disabled.The two cameras are really good. I am a DSLR user and I'm big into photography. I thought the Galaxy S camera was OK but the III's cameras are a big step up. The rear camera focuses very, very quickly and with a touch of the screen you can easily change the focus of the photo before you take the picture. Obviously, it cannot compete with DSLR photographs but it takes pretty decent photographs for a phone. It doesn't exactly rival compact point & shoot cameras but it is close.The III also comes with some useful apps like Kies Air which allows you to change your phone around (edit contacts, add music, etc) through your computer without having to plug the phone into USB. This a great feature especially when you are getting started with the phone for the first time and are importing data. There's a fair amount of crapware from AT&T; but they can be easily removed or hidden. You can easily hide apps by going to Application Manager, hitting Force Stop and then Disable. This can quickly remove unwanted or rarely used apps without having to root them.Battery life on smartphones is terrible in general. With moderate use, I can get through the day with some battery left to spare so it is good enough. It lasted 12 hours of regular use of GPS, apps, phone calls with 10% to spare.Overall, I'm pretty happy with the phone. Other than investing in a good protective case and learning to be more careful, I can't really find much to complain about. I'll update my review as I go along but so far, I recommend it highly.UPDATE: A month in and I still love this phone. It is incredibly fast and reliable. I haven't had it crashed once so far. The processing speed is great. I used to shy away from using my previous smartphone to do quick internet research because it was slow and unreliable. The SIII really makes you feel that you have the world at your fingertips. Very quick.I am an AT&T; customer and I ordered this phone through Amazon. There were a few problems when my account was transferred to this phone but AT&T; quickly cleared it up. As for the network, I know AT&T; is well-known for having a crappy network. Having been an AT&T; customer for a long time, I don't know any better but unless I'm in a known dead-zone like a basement or a dense apartment building, I have had no issues with connecting onto the network or making calls. No dropped calls so far, also (which is amazing because my Galaxy S would drop calls ALL the time). Still in love with this gizmo.",2584,0 +2585,"useless!!!! + +1 star is generous!!

When the phone is new it is responsive to your touch, has a little bit of a lag when moving around but that's normal.Once you load apps on it and start attempting to use it towards it's potential the phone becomes crippled and in my opinion is the worst phone I've had it 10 yrs. I often wait 3-5 sec after clicking on pretty much any button for my input to be acknowledged. When dialing a call I will hit the person's name and it will actually not start the call for 35+ seconds. I've timed it with a stopwatch. It is so bad that in the beginning I thought it didn't take my input so I'd retouch the screen. Fortunately, this phone is so smart that it would recognize both inputs with the huge lag so it would connect my call with person A, and then when i was on the call with person A it would dial person A again at the same time so I'd be talking to them and we'd both hear the phone ringing. They'd ask me, why are you calling again when we're on the phone and I'd have to explain how ridiculously slow the phone is to respond and the problems. Only way to remedy this situtation is to hang up and retry.The phone drops calls in areas where my old phone never dropped calls, so i'd rate reception as worse.The battery life is awful. I use it fairly heavily, but after owning it for 6 months my phone battery is usually done after about 6hrs of being unplugged.I upgraded to the new Android OS 2.1 but this makes things even worse. Seems to have some nice newer features but that just makes the phone hog the internet more and be less responsive.Terrible lag when typing messages.Why can't the software developers figure out that this is a SINGLE CORE processor and it CANNOT multi-task. If the user is actively using the phone, background tasks need to be halted so that the phone can be responsive. I'm tired of waiting 5 seconds between each click, and actually set the phone down when navigating through screens (e.g. like adding a new contact, seriously!!)",2597,0 +2598,"Worked decently but broke--definitely not original OEM part. + +After breaking my iPhone 3G's screen, I opted for replacing it with this at a tenth of the cost Apple offered me. The part arrived in good condition and in good time. I laid it all out, and after watching a few videos, managed to replace it without a hitch. I only ended up using one of screwdrivers, the suction cup and one of the screen pry tools. There's really no need to use the guitar picks and stuff. Like other reviewers said, the screwdrivers are pretty awful, so I recommend picking up one somewhere else, if you don't have one already. I had to stop in the middle of my repair to go get a $5 screwdriver set from Lowe's because this screwdriver wasn't strong enough to take out one of the tighter screws.After the repair, the phone worked great, but after a bit I found a fair number of things that indicated it wasn't an original part. They are...1. The screen felt a little funny at first--powdery maybe?--but after some use it seemed to go away.2. It does hold onto a few more fingerprints than the original screen does, but I quickly got used to it.3. Sometimes there would be chunks of time (20 seconds or so) that the screen would be totally unresponsive. I think this may have been a phone problem, not a screen problem as it always occurred in chunks of time, rather than sporadically. Maybe if you reconnect the little ribbons etc. extra well when you reassemble your phone, you won't have this problem.4. There's a barely noticeable grid-type pattern on the screen. It never bothered me, and I would never see it when I was actually using my phone, but in the right light it would come out. This might be a problem if you watch movies on your phone often, which I didn't.Last of all, the part isn't nearly as strong as the original. I dropped my phone face down for the first time yesterday, and despite it being in a case, the screen has broken again. With my original screen, I had probably dropped my phone the same way at least ten times before it broke. This one broke on the first test. If you babied your iPhone before, and your screen break was merely a one-time thing, I would probably recommend this part to be the most valuable for your money. If you play hard with your phone, like me, I suggest you pay for the real deal, which should probably run you about $50. It'll save you money in the end.",2598,0 +2599,"Versatile case - but pricey!

I am not very impressed with the construction and choice of materials and would be concerned about losing my credit cards and cash out of this pocket (the Speck case seems a little more solid with the rigid construction). I would hate to lose my cards and the flexibility of this part does not instill a lot of confidence in me. The pocket could be reinforced with a snap or something.

The screen will feel mushy. Their chief advantage is durability - urethane films are less prone to scratches and won't crease if you bend them somehow. These are the ones touted as made from ""the same material used to protect planes, helicopters, etc"", and sold famously under the Za*g brand name. Who cares if the same film is used to protect a helicopter rotor blade? You don't use rotor blades as touch screens. These are also known as 'wet application' films, as their 'floppiness' means you must do a lot of repositioning upon installation. All films will benefit from some water during application, however. See instructions below.Matte or ultra clear PET films are both fine. PET is thin and rigid. This is good for clarity, and will preserve the feel of your touchscreen.Matte PET is less susceptible to fingerprints, but a little less clear. Ultra clear PET is clearer, but prone to fingerprints.This screen protector is of the ultra clear PET variety.There is little to differentiate one PET film from another. They tend to be 3-layer, with either an electrostatic layer next to the screen, or a low-tack adhesive. There is little difference. So, get the cheapest one you can find! This one fits the bill, as it was around five clams for a set of three. Paying for pricier brands is a waste of money. This protector comes with the low-tack adhesive.The bottom of the Galaxy Nexus screen curves inward slightly, causing the bottom of edge of the film to not make complete contact with the screen. This hasn't bothered me. This will happen with any PET on this phone, unless it's cut short so that the bottom 1mm of the screen is exposed. A urethane film won't have this problem, but they aren't worth it.INSTALLATION:People come up with all sorts of tips to apply screen protectors to avoid dust under it. This is my method which I think is easy and works well:1) Go to the bathroom and take a shower (or just leave hot water running so the room gets very humid). Wash your hands to remove oils.2) Wipe down the phone screen with an antistatic cloth (such as the one included with this product)3) Remove the screen protector's packaging layer (indicated as ""step 1""), and moisten this side by running water over it and shaking off the excess. Or, flick some water onto it with a wet hand.4) Put the screen protector in no particular fashion. Feel free to lift it up and reposition it - the humidity will keep the dust away.5) Squeeze out the air and water underneath, blotting up any excess water with a napkin or paper towel. I suppose an anti-static cloth would be best.That's it. You'll then have a perfectly applied screen protector with no nonsense, on the cheap.",2604,0 +2605,"One of the best kept tech secrets out there. + +A perfect hybrid of the iPhone and Blackberry- but better!An arrogant and presumptuous statement you might say? Perhaps. An uneducated and unfair assumption? Hardly. With a flawless interactive touchscreen like the iPhone and a slide-out, tactile QWERTY keyboard akin to the Blackberry, this phone has surpassed ALL of my expectations.I was like all other lonely schoolboys out there on the playground albeit I wasn't out on the playground and I'm 35; hardly a schoolboy. But like the others, I was waiting in vain for my ""New Every Two"" discount to kick in so I can finally venture into the 21st century with a Smartphone (cue fading echo: phone, phone, phone...). I had done tiresome and extensive research on the ""Big 3"" that Verizon had to offer: the Motorola Droid, the HTC Droid Eris and the Palm Pre Plus (not big on Blackberrys; too yuppy/primitive/not me). My research included watching way too many videos of these phones on youtube (unboxing, walkthroughs, hacks, Chocolate Rain cameos, etc.), reading far too many blogs to mention and actually fiddling around on the phones. Using the phones. How novel. I'll make this simple:The Motorola Droid I found to be too bulky, far too heavy for a mobile device, suffering from ""only child"" syndrome and, from the research I did, the touchscreen was WEAK. W. E. A. K. That is problemo numero uno. Next.The HTC Droid was very high on the ""Me want, me want"" list. I did like the touchscreen response, fairly attractive OS and it is backed by Google which I use religiously. The strike? I was coming from a standard slider phone and doing text messages with a standard phone keypad. Going from that to QWERTY in itself is a big step. Add onscreen-only and you're asking for some serious aggravation, anxiety and frustration. What else we gots?So the Palm Pre had been getting press on it's ""revolutionary"" webOS and that it was coming to Verizon in January. I was only familiar with it because I would watch youtube reviews and visit the Palm website. I do have to admit that once I played with the Palm Pre I was quite enamored. The shape was ridiculously comfortable. The tactile keyboard was small but, surprisingly, my fairly nimble fingers were able to adjust with ease and the touchscreen was absolutely mind blowing. This is the ONLY phone that Verizon offers where I felt as comfortable using it as I did on an iPhone (which all touchscreens try to rival in terms of responsiveness and illuminosity).When the time came to purchase my new device, the Palm Pre Plus was at the top of my list. I had to lure my girlfriend into the depths of geekdom and let her know how great this phone was too. She relented and now she is truly addicted to this phone.One great, huuge surprise I had on this phone was the multi tasking prowess this has on it. On my second day owning it I used a GPS tracking jogging app and listened to some music on my Bluetooth stereo headset. Now I know an iPhone can't do that all at once.I can't really say enough good things about this phone. I really hope the best for Palm and if you do get one, you're going to see the huge underground following/cult of Palm Pre fanatics that just can't say enough either!",2605,0 +2606,"Absolutely fantastic + +Earlier this year, I jumped ship from Apple (the iPhone 5, specifically) to Samsung's Galaxy Note II. In the process, I also went from AT&T; to a rival carrier offering unlimited data and slightly lower monthly bills. While I liked the Note II very much, the data speeds on the other carrier were so poor that, only four months later, I found myself willing to eat the very large early termination fee and switch back to AT&T; (who I knew firsthand to have LTE in this market). Since I was switching carriers and had the option to get a new phone, I figured I might as well pick up the latest and greatest on the Android front. Plus it just happened to be release day.So, I now find myself in possession of the HTC One, and I can say without hesitation that it's the best smartphone I've ever owned (and that includes the Note II, the iPhone 5 and the previous generation iPhones I've had in the past).As I said, I really liked the Samsung Note II. The display size, for me, was not completely absurd, though the display quality wasn't entirely to my liking -- not crisp enough, and it had the slightly blue cast I notice on Samsung's Super AMOLED displays. The plastic build on the Samsung was also disappointing. I recognize that most people put their phones in cases, but I do not. I'm not careless with phones, and I've never been a fan of needlessly bulking up a device. Finally, Samsung seems to have a knack for stuffing in a lot of ""gee whiz"" features that seem impressive at first blush, but then get ignored completely because they're simply not very useful.Those issues are all completely absent from the HTC One. While going from a 5.5"" display to a 4.7"" one was a bit uncomfortable initially, I've gotten used to it... and, yes, the smaller device is a bit easier to handle with one hand. But the HTC's display is spectacular. It currently has the highest pixel density of any smartphone on the market (and some that haven't hit yet -- like the Galaxy S4), and text is amazingly crisp and smooth. It's bright enough that I usually keep it at half brightness comfortably. And the colors look natural, unlike the hyper-saturated look from Samsung.The phone as a whole feels solid, but not heavy. It's heavier than the iPhone 5 (which honestly feels almost hollow), but it conveys a sense of substance, which is appealing. The HTC One is the first phone that matches the iPhone 5 in fit and finish, but takes it a step further by incorporating an industrial design that is more beautiful than the stark simplicity of the iPhone 5 without straying into ""over-designed"" territory. It's simple, but interesting and thoughtful... and it feels wonderful in the hand.Having gotten used to Samsung's UI overlay, there was a little bit of a learning curve when switching to the HTC device, but in the end, I find it a much more elegant experience. Samsung tends to needlessly complicate things in a very ham-fisted way. HTC's Sense UI is much more subtle, and one gets the sense that every decision that was made in its creation was done thoughtfully and purposefully, instead of ""just because we can."" There are fewer bells and whistles, perhaps, but the ones that exist are genuinely useful and polished.The front-facing, stereo speakers are great. The device can pump out some serious sound, and once you experience a stereo sound source, you'll wonder how you were ever satisfied with the sound quality on other smartphones. I'm not entirely convinced that Beats Audio is much more than a marketing gimmick, but there's no denying that having two front-facing speakers on opposite ends of the device make for a great listening experience.The built-in IR blaster is an interesting addition. Its functionality is wrapped up in a pre-installed app that asks for your cable provider and location, lets you set up remote control functions for TV, cable box and A/V receiver... and then ties it all together. There's a handy feature that displays shows that are currently broadcasting (there's even a handy progress bar at the bottom so you can see how much of the show is remaining) and allows you to jump straight to them with a push of a button. You can also store multiple remote setups for different locations/TVs.The camera. Ahhh, the camera. HTC very wisely eschews megapixels in favor of larger pixels on the sensor. Anyone who knows anything about digital cameras knows that devices touting extremely high megapixel counts are usually just pandering to an ill-informed consumer. Today's smartphones, with very few exceptions, all have the same camera sensor size. By stuffing in a greater megapixel count, the manufacturer is simply shrinking the size of the individual pixel... to fit more of them on the sensor. This results in very large photos, but at the cost of low-light performance. A tiny pixel on a sensor is capable of capturing far less light than a large pixel. The HTC One's rear-facing camera is a 4MP camera. Compared to the iPhone 5's 8MP camera, that sounds like a huge step backward. The reality is, unless you're planning to print out poster-sized photos, 4MP is more than sufficient. (And, no joke, if you're doing poster-sized prints, you should be using a real DSLR -- not a phone.) The physical size of the sensors in the One and the iPhone 5, however, are very close -- though, in fact, the HTC One's sensor is actually a bit LARGER than that of the iPhone 5. But it has half as many pixels. The pixels on the HTC One's sensor, however, are twice as large. Why does this matter? It allows the camera to capture more light much faster, which means superior low-light performance. For me, that's a big deal, since 90% of the time I use my phone to take a photo, it's indoors -- frequently in a dim environment. The One's better innate low-light performance combined with the fact that it has optical image stabilization (as opposed to the inferior *electronic* image stabilization that most smartphones use) means more detail and better shots in darker situations.In addition to the camera hardware, the software is excellent. I didn't realize how pedestrian Samsung's camera app was until I used this one. The settings make more sense, offering a nice level of control without being completely overwhelming, and it's all very intuitive.One of my absolute favorite features of the HTC One is the Zoe feature (short for zoetrope). Instead of just capturing a still frame, Zoe mode captures a 3-second movie clip. You can pull out a full-size frame from the clip if you want, but far more interesting is to let the phone create an event highlight reel. Within the gallery app, photos and Zoes are organized into events (by date, as a default, though they can be reorganized as needed) and a highlight video is dynamically generated, which can be shared. These highlight videos are incredible. They seem to make even the most mundane subjects look interesting and exciting. They're only around 30 seconds each, but they give a much more rich and vibrant sense of the event. You can select one of six different ""themes"" for the highlight video, and you have the option of specifying which Zoe clips are included, but it literally takes seconds to create a polished, compelling video that would be a thousand times more interesting for others to see than flipping through a series of flat photos. Zoe and the highlight videos I think make one of the most promising new vehicles for sharing experiences I've seen in recent memory.The downsides are well documented in other reviews, the two biggest being the lack of a micro-SD slot and a battery that is not user-replaceable. For me, these are a non-issue, but their importance will vary from user to user. The HTC One is available with either 32GB or 64GB of storage at this time. On my Note II, I had 16GB internal and a 64GB micro SD. After four months, I was using well below 16GB of storage space -- my storage needs simply aren't that demanding. The HTC One, meanwhile, has twice that much space. And to upgrade to the 64GB model is only $100 more. Honestly, since I'm still within my 14 day return window, I *may* end up trading mine for the 64GB model, just so that I never have to think twice about it -- I will definitely be using the camera more than I was on the Note II.Some folks like to be able to add aftermarket, higher-capacity batteries. That would not be possible on the HTC One, but those high capacity batteries also add significant bulk and weight, which does not appeal to me. The micro-USB charging cable is easily available, and it's not a big deal to plug it in once in a while. That being said, the HTC One should have no trouble making it through a full day of fairly heavy use without needing a charge, but this will vary wildly from user to user. I'm also not concerned about the battery going bad. In several years and several smartphones, I've NEVER experienced it with any manufacturer or device, and I don't expect it to suddenly become a problem.Really the only thing I might change on the HTC One is the position of the power button. I tend to hold the phone in my left hand and use the touchscreen with my right. Since the power button is on the top left corner, it requires quite a stretch with my left index finger to turn on (for checking the time, for instance, since I don't wear a watch). The power button, meanwhile, on the Note II was placed exactly where my left index finger rested when holding it, so I considered that placement ideal. I'm sure I'll get used to it.If that seems like a minor thing to quibble over, that should give an indication of how satisfied I am with the device.Android has finally caught up with iOS in terms of polish and performance. iOS, in fact, is getting a bit long in the tooth, whereas Android is very aggressively improving and evolving.

I have had the EZOPower in my hands since 7 Jan. I wrote a (not stellar) review earlier that appears to have been removed. In that review I stated that I charged it per the instructions and it had 5 bars when checked. Used it great and it charged my cell phone (HTC EVO V) about 3 times (from no less than 20%) before needing to be recharged itself. The second (and third) time I charged the EZOPower it only got up to 3 bars when checked, even when it was charged overnight. I figured it was the battery breaking in (since the instructions state charge and fully discharge 3 times to get the full capacity available). Yesterday, after discharging the battery for the 4th time I tried charging it again; now the product does not seem to want to take a charge, even after remaining on the charger all day. Of course this is 4 days AFTER the 30 day return period but I am still bummed that I apparently wasted $35 on this product. Maybe I got a defective product but it is peculiar that it would fail in little over a month of light use.

Far be it from me to recommend what's the best choice for you ... that ultimately comes down to personal preferences and requirements. While none are perfect, some are definitely better than others.My first case was the Innopocket Aluminum hard shell and while it looks cool and protects like no other, I found it difficult to use on a daily basis. For traveling or for carrying at the bottom of a backback or briefcase, it's a solid performer.Let's face it, the best case when it comes to usability is no case at all. No matter what anyone may say about how accessable the ports, buttons and slots are in this case or that, bare is better.The fact that this leather case from palmOne carries the Treo 650 with the screen and keyboard facing out, and the corners exposed, leaves it unprotected and at risk to scratching or other damage.The size of the monster clip attached to the back means you won't be able to pop your Treo 650 into a docking cradle without first removing it from the case.And now that I mentioned it, is that a clip on your case or are you just glad to see me? This clip is similar to the one that came with my Innopocket ... which was so thick that the phone itself seemed to stick out from my body and that I eventually decided to remove altogether. Not exactly what one would describe as sleek and stylish.My personal recommended alternative choice is the Seidio Shield Holster. In some ways it is similar to this palmOne, except that it is constructed of hard plastic, the phone sits with the face turned in (and protected), the corners are covered, and the belt clip is more streamlined and about half as thick.

After a while they just stop working. The volume did not lower so the headset is still usable.Updated Review:I got a replacement unit and this one works correctly. The sound is pretty crappy but that is expected on most bluetooth headsets. However, this probably has the worst sound quality of the bluetooth headsets I have had. With that said, it is cheaper than all of them too. It is a little awkward to wear and I can see it becoming uncomfortable after a long period of time but for an hour or so run it is fine. Overall, it is OK for the price just don't expect the highest quality.Original Review:This headset is an utter piece of crap. Half way through my first run the volume automatically lowered to the minimum volume and would not respond to the controls anymore. Because the control buttons would no longer work, I could not shut it off either. The only way to turn it off was to plug in the charger which would force a shutdown.I gave it the benefit of the doubt and tried it a few more times, but for each run the same thing happens, works fine for about a mile and then craps out.I've had a few other bluetooth headsets and they all crap out eventually but never on the first time.",2633,0 +2634,"Sad In Michigan + +I recently had a 6102 Nokia Phone.

Here, with the WP-380 headphones, my problem has been solved! I currently have my headphones paired with my Samsung S3 and Google Nexus 10 through Bluetooth and I use the detachable wired connection with my laptop workstation. All work beautifully. The Bluetooth connections are flawless with no dropout or static and range is completely not an issue for my use purposes (I rarely have exceeded 25 feet from either device).Technical details and comfort are subject to normal break-in and learning curve. The first week or so of use, extended wear caused some discomfort with squeezing my ears and head; however, after a month of use, I have used the headphones for up to four hours without any sense of discomfort. Control placement has taken a little time to get used to for on/off and volume control, but that is to be expected and no real inconvenience.While these are not noise-canceling, I have found they do a great job of dampening outside noise...actually better than some noise-canceling headphones I have used in the past (most notably the JVC HA-NC250). I would attribute this to the nice over ear fit, so it might be relegated to my ear size and experience only.I can also compare these to my Audio Technica ATH-M50 headphones and say they rank very close to them in sound quality experience. Where the ATH-M50's will win in a head-to-head shoot out for tone and sound reproduction and ultimate comfort, the WP-380's will win in portability and broad-use convenience...but one thing is certain...there isn't much compromise at all in the sound quality of these headphones in comparison; it's a ""squeaker"" for sure.For a product of this quality and under $100, they simply cannot be beat, even by a product at twice the cost.

I had the Defender for my 3GS and it protected my phone all these years. Didn't have the iPhone 4/4S so I can't compare it to that. Quick impressions so far:PROTECTION - Protection wise, the iPhone 5 Defender is at par with the 3GS. Industrial grade protection with complete coverage. Same concept and overall design, though the silicone feels slightly thicker and more solid in the 5. The silicone has a matte finish compared to the smooth finish in the 3GS, which hopefully should help avoid dust and lint - this was the only drawback with the 3GS case, it needed cleaning frequently.BUTTONS/PORTS - Power and volume buttons are covered with silicone shaped like the buttons themselves. No problem pressing either of these buttons with the silicone. The headphone jack, charging port, and silent button have silicone plugs that can be pulled out to expose the jacks. (TIP - to open the plugs, insert nail and push the top silicone part higher to get behind the plug to pull it out. Hope this makes sense. The headphone plug is tiny and it can take some time getting used to opening it). The charging port plug, when opened, keeps snapping back into the case, which means it has to be held open with one hand to insert the charger. Insignificant issue, and I'm hoping that with use, this piece will loosen up a bit so that it stays open if needed. Opening at the back for the Apple logo is covered with a transparent plastic film. The front camera/speaker, the back camera/flash, and the two speakers at the bottom are left open and are the only exposed parts of the phone.SCREEN COVERAGE - Clear plastic film on the screen integrated into the case, the touchscreen experience is as good with the film as it is without the case. The transparent film creates a tiny layer of air or moisture between itself and the screen, which can create watermarks on the screen. This was an issue with the 3GS as well. (TIP - I had read several forums for my 3GS that recommended applying baby powder before installing this case, but I personally didn't find that to be a lasting solution. Applying an Anti-Glare film to the phone's screen before installing the case was the best solution. I am still waiting for my Anti-Glare film to come in, but I installed a spare I had for my 3GS just to see if that solved the issue with the 5, and it did).HOLSTER - The silicone is kept intact with two plastic tabs on the side. This really helps keep the silicone in shape and prevents it from stretching or loosening over time. These tabs also work as the locking mechanism for the holster. The case can be inserted facing in or out in the holster, a fine improvement by Otterbox. Most such holsters I have seen only allow face-in orientation (3GS allowed only face-in which I found annoying when going for a run). This holster has a fully rotating belt clip so that it can be attached vertically or horizontally on the belt. No chance of the case falling out, nice secure fit. The holster is much better and ergonomically designed than the 3GS version. It is easier to access the phone with this design.Here are a few details that I would have liked to see improved/addressed:- Front and back camera openings - the two openings are huge! The front camera/speaker/light sensor opening is one big opening. For the 3GS version (3GS only has speaker on the front, no camera) and from what I have seen for the 4S, the cases had a precision opening which provided better overall coverage. For the back, the opening is approximately 30-40% bigger than it should be for the camera and flash. It would have been nice to have more precise openings on both places for even better protection.- Headphone jack plug - this perhaps has more to do with the placement of the headphone jack itself, but the case opening is really small and it's not very smooth to open the silicone plug. For the 3GS, the silicone plug went around the headphone jack to the back, which made opening it a breeze. They could have used the same design for the 5 as well. With the current design, it takes time opening the headphone plug. It's entirely possible it is just something that takes getting used to, or that the silicone will loosen over time making it easier to open.- The iPhone 5 is a super sleek, light, and slick looking device. Putting the Defender case makes it bulky (more than doubles the thickness). Now this is a pro in that it offers super-protection which I cannot live without. The downside is that it takes away the aesthetic beauty of the iPhone.I bought this in black when that was the only color available. Now it seems there are a lot more choices. Wish I had waited for the Glacier (just a personal preference)!Other than these minor issues, I am overall very happy with this case and I hope to use it for several years to come, just I did with my 3GS Defender. Yes, it's slightly expensive, but it's also peace of mind.UPDATE 10-12-12The watermark issue seems to be persistent with this case and nothing seems to permanently help in this regard. The anti-glare film bridges the gap somewhat but only for a few days. The screen in the case lifts right back up after a few days and creates the watermark issue all over again making it difficult to use the screen. I am sending this back to get a different case. Yes, I want to protect my iPhone which is why I was willing to put up with the bulk of this case, but I can't give up functionality.",2650,0 +2651,"What A Turd! + +Dear Consumer,Run for your very life. I am the bewildered owner of this crappy cell phone. This device is the modern equivalent of, well, (insert your favorite torcher device here.) The heinous organization and navigation of the phone book, and the various settings menus is enough to make your teary with insanity. Even the ring tones (when the phone actually rings that is) are horribly ear piercing. Friends call and the neighborhood dogs cower. You even have to set the clock on the phone, WTF?! (I know clock setting my sound like a crappy gripe, but it was impossible to figure out how to set the clock.)

I cannot speak for the new model that Motorola has, butI really am enjoying this pair. Soo much that I bought a second pair.CONS:The only drawback I see about these so far is that they do not use a micro USB B style, but theolder USB charger ( ones that the razr use to use ).",2652,0 +2653,"Good Phone, Just Not For Me + +I owned the original EVO and upgraded to the EVO 4G LTE in late August; I liked the LTE, but didn't love it as much as I did the original EVO, so I decided to exchange for the Galaxy S3. 24 hours later, the Galaxy is in a box and headed back to Amazon, in exchange for an EVO LTE.I knew there would be a learning curve in using a different UI from the HTC Sense to which I was so accustomed; what I did not expect was the difficulty in doing some of the simplest tasks on the Galaxy.Do you hit the snooze button on your alarm? I do as well (and yes, we really shouldn't do that, but it is what it is). When you set an alarm on the Galaxy, snooze is Off by default, so you have to remember to turn it on and then tell it how long the snooze time should be and how many times you are permitted to hit it for a given alarm. What a pain in the butt; the snooze feature should be on by default and let me have my choice between snoozing or turning off the alarm. Also, if you are a deep sleeper or non morning person like me, the stock alarm sounds on the Galaxy stand a good chance of putting you into a deeper sleep rather than - you know - waking you up.On the EVO, creating a folder for app icons is as simple as stacking the icons on top of one another; with the Galaxy, you must choose to create a folder (an ugly looking folder at that) and then slide the icons you want into that folder.S-Voice was unimpressive - and I played with it a lot. I had the phone set to show text for what S-Voice spoke; sometimes it would show me the text, sometimes it would not. Maybe that was Samsung's plan all along - to create some excitement by turning S-Voice into a little game where you and your friends can place bets on whether or not it will work.You are supposed to be able to use S-Voice to unlock the phone simply by speaking to it and that worked marginally as well.I use Google Voice in conjunction with my Sprint service; if someone calls me on Voice, I have to hit the '1' button on the keypad to accept the call. Easy, right? Well, not so easy when the screen keeps going black when I try to tap that button.On the EVO, if you tap the stock Clock/Weather widget, you are taken to either the clock or the weather forecast, depending on where you tap. On the Galaxy, tapping that widget anywhere will only take you to the weather, so you need to add a second clock widget to your screen or go into your apps each time you want to set an alarm.It's nitpicky, but Galaxy's icons for stock apps such as Messaging and Email are flat ugly to look at compared to those which HTC offers. Also, the EVO offers 'skins' which allow you to change the color scheme of your screen; the Galaxy may have that feature, but I looked for it and didn't see it.The physical 'Home' button on the Galaxy sounded like a nice idea in theory, but it kinda sucks in practice and the phone tends to lag between the time the button is pressed and you are actually taken to the home screen.The Galaxy feels very cheap in the hand versus the EVO and its glossy back becomes very slippery. Also, the back comes off the Galaxy MUCH too easily. I don't necessarily want to have to use a can opener to get the back off of a phone, but I do like having some resistance; I suspect that if the Galaxy were dropped, you would have to spend some time trying to figure out where the back landed when it popped off the phone, taking the battery with it.There is no difference in speed between the two phones, so don't let the extra gig of RAM on the Galaxy be your deciding factor.The Galaxy does have some advantages over the EVO. I liked having the power button on the side of the phone rather than the top and the volume controls are on the opposite side than they are on the EVO, so I was less likely to accidentally bump them. I also really liked being able to pull down the notification bar to toggle on or off services like WIFI, Bluetooth, Sound, etc.I am certain the Galaxy S3 is a good phone - there are too many favorable reviews to believe otherwise - and I am sure it works very well for someone willing to invest the time to learn to jump through all the hoops to perform simple tasks.As I said in the title; it's a good phone, just not for me.",2653,0 +2654,"Didn't last a month... + +I needed a cable to use for charging my Samsung galaxy S4 at night so that I could use my OEM cable elsewhere. The actual cable itself seemed decent, not too stiff, but the problem I'm having is with the metal tip that gets inserted into the phone port. After the short amount of time I've had it, it has become so loose that it constantly becomes disconnected. If I pick up the phone, the cable falls out of the port without even pulling on it. I'm now in search of another cable to replace this poorly-built cable.",2654,1 +2655,"Looks good, but protection? + +I looked at the reviews and bought the case based on the high ratings. I am not sure how to rate this product. I guess it depends what you want out of a case. This case fits nicely, is attractive looking and inexpensive. On the other hand, it is really just plastic, not really even rubberized plastic. If you dropped your phone, I highly doubt it would offer much protection. If it fell on the backside of the phone, I guess it might help protect the glass. The plastic would not really absorb much shock though, so I tend to doubt it.If you are looking for something that looks good, is inexpensive, but offers light protection, this is a good case.",2655,0 +2656,"Fits great, looks good as well + +Just got delivered about an hour ago. I've got a really thin case on my note 3 and was able to fit the phone (in case) into the opening, but this caused some buttons to be pushed by the sides of the armband once i put it on. I removed the case and this "button pushing" problem went away all together. I realize that this phone is massive, but I wasn't sure exactly how massive it would look on my small arms. My plan to keep from embarrassing myself is to simply rotate the phone to be on the inside of my arm. The only flaw that I can tell this early in is that like many of the other reviews have stated, the band is rather short so if you've got large arms...stay away because you will be disappointed. The other thing I can see being a problem is the part of the Velcro that wraps around and attaches is fairly small (approx. 1x1 in.) and I can definitely see it breaking loose one day. That's about all I've got for this thing now, if i run into any more likes/dislikes I'll update.TL;DR I would recommend this item to someone looking for an armband for a gigantor phone, but keep an eye out for the velcro strap.",2656,0 +2657,"delaminating after 2 months of use, company does not stand behind product + +Purchased this glass screen protector soon after purchasing my iPhone despite seeing reviews and forum posts about the screen protector delaminating around the edges, where the glue just gives up and lets go. Well I figured they hadn't put it on correctly or whatever else and figured I'd be just fine.2 months after the protector was meticulously placed on a phone that was cleaned as per the instructions a foggy area started in the upper left corner of the protector. This foggy area where the protector is actually delaminating from the surface of the phone has been growing ever since and now actually covers a part of the visible screen. The phone has never been dropped and looks as it did when it came out of the Apple box but with an ugly delaminating screen protector placed on top.Since these things claim to have a warranty I contacted their website support. After some back and forth they decide that since I purchased through Amazon they want me to contact them through the Amazon support link because for whatever reason that support person couldn't access their sales from their own Amazon page. So I followed their directions and re-contacted them through their Amazon support link with all the same info and they now claim they cannot honor the warranty because I purchased it on Amazon and not their website. Basically their warranty is worthless.So 1 star because the concept is good, but the peeling and total lack of customer/warranty service leaves this firmly in the DO NOT BUY category especially since there are much better and proven reliable screen protectors out there.

The Jabra Extreme is a great design but the sound quality is not as good as some of the top headsets. The price is a lot lower so it's probably not a fair comparison. I have a noisy car and when I'm on the freeway it's hard to have a clear conversation. But for all other situations it sounds good. The Voyager Pro is the best all around headset I have ever used. Unfortunately my dog destroyed it. I really wanted to try the Jabra Extreme headset because it has A2DP (bluetooth music streaming). At first I thought A2DP was just a gimmick but now I use it all the time and love it. Today I was in the grocery store waiting in line while listening to music. The headset will pause the music when you receive a call and then resume when the call is over. Sound quality is very good for music. Many people don't understand listening to music in only one ear but I prefer it because I can still hear people talk if I need to. Plus it's seamless to go from talking on the phone to listening to music.Other things I like are the on / off switch which is simple. The volume buttons are great and the call / answer button is very responsive. I really like the USB charger for my laptop or car. The Jabra Extreme fits well in my ear, is light and looks great. If you want the absolute best bluetooth headset sound quality, then plan on spending another $40 or more.

This case will not fit the Sprint Q9c phone w/ the extended battery.",2659,0 +2660,"Great product, with 1 exception. + +I tried a few screen protectors for my Droid X before settling on the Skinomi one. The major criteria I was looking for was (1) The clarity of the protector (does it look like there's one on the screen?) (2) The feel of the protector (3) The ability of the protector to repel fingerprints, oils, smudges, etc. I first tried the Verizon protectors, but I wasn't happy with them. They weren't THAT clear, they had a hazy rainbow effect to them. They did a good job of retaining the smooth feeling of the screen, but I just wasn't happy with them. Then I tried the SGP Steinheil ultra clear, because I had read some great reviews of it. It is definitely ULTRA clear, but the reason I didn't keep this one on for longer than 5 seconds was because it had a tacky/sticky feel to it...for those of you out there using the Swype keyboard (like I do), that's a big deal. It's probably less of a big deal for those of you who don't Swype. Off it came, and off I went in search of another one to try. I forget how I ended up finding the Skinomi one, but I gave it a shot because it had a good price and the lifetime replacements enticed me. I was very hesitant to apply a cover that required wetting it down, but it works very easily and safely. It's simple to apply. Things I like about the Skinomi: (1)it's very clear (2)it's almost as smooth as the glass screen itself (3)it does a pretty good job of repelling fingerprints and stuff. My one complaint about it (and it's the reason I had to buy another one)is the fact that the protector is sorta easy to ""dent"" or scratch...for example, one day I put my phone in my car's center armrest and apparently the phone was being pressed against something in there, because when I took it out, I noticed a mark/impression on the screen protector. The protector obviously did its job, for the screen itself is still in perfect condition, but in this instance the impression made in the protector was in a very visible spot on my phone and it drove me nuts. I'm anal like that. I have no idea if other screen protectors are better or worse at handling impressions, but I was sorta surprised at the ease with which I was able to make an impression in the Skinomi. If it weren't for that, I'd rate the product 5 stars - price is right, company offers great service, and the product works great.

Not a huge deal, can always take the phone out and clean the case.Here is the BIG DEAL. The phone fell (with case on) off my ottoman about 2 feet on to my tile floor. This resulted in a cracked screen. I was shocked that such a small fall would result in a cracked screen.It seems this case did little to nothing to protect the phone from the small fall. I am adult male that works in the tech field. I am by no means hard on my gadgets, but a fall does happen from time to time.I was rather upset to say the less.

It quickly became clear that there was no place in my car to attach it using the suction cup. (My 2009 VW Jetta has lots of curved surfaces on the dash and console, all done with a pebble-like finish that doesn't work with suction cups.)But it really is a nice holder for my new Nokia 1020 smartphone. So I found a smooth place to mount it on my desk (an IKEA Hemnes ""Secretary"" with a fold down writing surface). There were lots of flat surfaces and I quickly found a great spot that kept my new phone off the writing surface, but in full view (with the USB cable neatly out of the way). A few hours later, the suction cup gave way.I plan to keep the holder, but remove the suction cup and just attach it to the desk with screws. I really like the way it works with my desk.As for my car, if I can find a place where I'd be willing to drill holes, I'll order another one. Otherwise, the Nokia is just going to stay in my pocket or the console, and I'll use my Bluetooth headset to access music and answer the phone.",2664,0 +2665,"Works with Nexus 7. + +I did some research trying to find a car USB charger that would be compatible with my Nexus 7 tablet. This unit's 2.1 amp port works perfectly. This is different from the other reVIVE II (the USBC3 rather than this, the GUSBC3) which would work with Apple high-current devices but not anything else. Make sure you buy the right unit for your devices. 2.1 amp is a higher current than standard USB ports which allows for faster charging (some devices won't charge at all on a lower current). Since it's not an official USB standard Apple chose to implement high-current charging differently than everyone else, so chargers designed for high-current Apple devices will not work correctly with other high-current devices. Usually this means that a charger for an iPad will not work for an Android tablet and vice versa.When I connect my Nexus 7 to this charger's 2.1 Amp port the tablet correctly reports it's on a high-current charger (by saying the battery is charging from ""AC"", which would normally be the wall-outlet adapter [AC power] included with the Nexus 7).",2665,0 +2666,"Excellent thin case for my HTC One + +I love the thinness of my new HTC One, and don't like to use cases or covers. However, know I need a case for two reasons: (1) The aluminum backing is a little slippery, (2) I don't want to scratch the backing of my phone over time when sliding my phone on a desk top, etc. As such, I found the perfect case for me, the Incipio Feather Case. I actually used a similar Incipio Feather case for my old Samsung Nexus 4G phone, so I knew this would be a good choice for me.There's the ""Shine"" version which has a shiny finish, but I prefer the matte black finish which is what this version is (seems more grippy). The case is really thin but hard, and fits my phone precisely. All the cutouts for the on/off switch, volume rocker, etc. are perfect. The phone seems just a tad bulkier with the cover, but it's probably the thinnest you can get (I don't even notice it now). I like the black case covering the sllver phone, as the two-tone coloring looks good.I highly recommend this case if you want to protect your HTC One, want more of a grip for your hand, and don't want the added bulky feeling.",2666,0 +2667,"Couldn't be happier + +It is a bit expensive so I hesitated before buying the 808 PureView, but I have no regrets. I am loving this phone!OS: A lot of reviews gripe about the OS (Symbian Belle) and compare it to Android and iOS. I have used an iPhone for a while, and this version of Symbian is just as good. Everything runs very smooth, even when viewing the 38mp photos. The Nokia browser is usable, but definitely not the best. Still, you can just install Opera Mobile which is a fantastic browser. Everything I need in a phone OS is working well - for example I can sync my Google contacts and calendar.Apps: Admittedly there are far fewer apps available than on the major phone platforms, but there seems to be enough good apps for most peoples' needs. The mobile version of most websites (amazon, wikipedia, etc) work fine when there is no app available.Maps: Nokia has the best maps suite, hands down. The maps are preloaded on your phone, so they save bandwidth and work when you don't have a signal. The Nokia 'Drive' GPS app is also excellent for turn-by-turn directions.Camera: I don't need to say much about this, other than it is as good as people are saying. You have more custom control over your shots than any other phone camera, and higher quality than most point-and-shoot cameras.Screen: The AMOLED screen is much lower res than the iPhone ""Retina"" display, so I thought this might be an issue. It turns out, it is not too bad. Photos still looks very sharp and the screen works great in bright light. Web sites are sharp enough. The lower res screen also helps with battery life.Before I got my hands on the phone I would've guessed that it would be a 4-star product.

This one works perfect.",2669,0 +2670,"Not perfect, but it fine for our use. + +I bought the SuperTooth Buddy when we decided to keep our 2005 Honda Odyssey for a few more years.The Honda is primarily the wife’s car and she want to have a hands-free phone option which led me to this product. As usual, there turned out to more hands-free devices than you can wade through, which is nice, but it makes trying to figure out just what to buy, something of a chore. After spending some time searching, this product seemed to offer what we wanted at a decent price and good overall reviews.The device paired with my wife’s phone after a few attempts following the directions. However, I never could get it to pair with my phone after dozens of attempts and googling the subject. In the end, I just gave up as I don’t use the vehicle that much so it was not a big issue for me. I made a custom bracket that allowed me to mount the device right above the radio so at first glance it looks factory like. It makes it easy to see and use with little distraction. It makes and receives calls with no problem and audio quality on both ends is very good. What was interesting, is that the voice command feature was automatically activated with no effort on my part. Press the green button and the device ask what you want to do. You then just speak the name of the party you wish to call and if they are in your phones address book, it makes the connection. When finished, you can press the same green button or the red button to end the call. In the case with with making a call to “Home”, it will connect every time when I do it. When the wife calls “Home”, she will have to try two or three times. I’m guessing it the difference between a male voice and a female voice.The other problem is the connection distance. One reviewer made mention of this, and it it’s the same for us. It seems that once the phone is synced to the device, you need to move about fifty feet (I’m guessing) away from the device before it will disconnect. In our case, when the van is in the garage, it’s only about twenty feet or so from the cellphone when it’s in the house, so it always stays paired . If you get a call, it will ring in the van, but the cellphone will not ring in the house. Plus, you can’t make a call from the phone as well. Everything is still functioning through the SuperTooth device. The only (simple) way to solve this, is to just turn the device off when home, or move the phone far enough away that it will disconnect from the device. Again, not a big deal. The other reviewer wrapped his phone with tin foil (when in the house) which worked for him.So, while it does have a few quirks, it does what we wanted, which is to provide hands-free operation of the wife’s phone while in the van with ease and good audio quality. It does those two things well.",2670,0 +2671,"If it only worked reliably + +We bought these adapter kits for our new Samsung phones.Unfortunately the connector for the car adapter is not made correctly and gives out after a couple of weeks of use.

As others have noted, the power switch is completely unpredictable. The instructions indicate pressing the power button once illuminates the LEDs, indicating the battery level of the case. Holding the power button for three seconds is supposed to start/stop charging your phone. In reality, quickly pressing the button starts/stops charging. (There's no way to check the charge.) As other reviewers have noted, this means that the protruding button lightly brushing the inside of your pant pocket, will turn the case/phone into a small heater, charging the phone unintentionally while simultaneously warming your thigh to a slight medium-rare.To make matters worse, it randomly begins charging for no reason what-so-ever. At first, I thought I imagined it. There must be an explanation. Then, I blamed myself: ""I must have accidentally touched that power button..."" But after witnessing it occur while the phone was sitting completely undisturbed on my desk, I can finally confirm: the case just RANDOMLY starts charging my phone!There are other, similar, more costly charging cases; perhaps this is just another example of ""you get what you pay for.""TLDR: Great idea, but very poorly executed.

Here are some impressions:Pro:- it's loud and clear, always a plus. Picks up voice extremely well. No problems on its basic functions, and worked very well.- it has a strange (amazing, really) ability to wake up on the proximity of a cell phone, even without the bluetooth turned on. No actions needed to wake it up from sleep, yet its sleep cycle is still quite frugal on battery consumption (last weeks on normal daily use).- it also has the best bluetooth pairing and response that I have ever seen on any bluetooth device. Used it with multiple phones, and reliability has been top notch and worry free. Always connected without problems, so unlike the fidgety bluetooth that I expected (and got used to).- it has voice prompt, which further eliminated any insecurities such as connections and status. e.g. It would connect and announce the device name, and its battery level, etc.- buttons are lit when actuated/waken. It's a minor touch but a much appreciated one.- enough buttons to cover my needs--as simplicity/sleekness are often traded with functionality. The buttons are well placed that they are easy to see and actuate.- Comes with its own micro usb car charger (that you can also use to charge your phones, headsets, etc, provided they have micro usb charging ports).- It looks and feels of good quality, and I think it is a beautiful design.Cons:- Poor FM music streaming: the feature that I most anticipated is its ability to stream a2dp bluetooth sound to FM radio. The result was not acceptable: static filled. Even if I were able to manage removing the static, the sound comes out lean and tinny. I haven't figured out why, but it is simply a non-usable feature. Quite a disappointment.- The ""car locator"" software available for android or iphone wasn't terribly useful (or reliable) for me.For my money I would probably get the slightly downgraded model without the FM streaming, as that feature is simply not working for me (tried on multiple cars). It has demonstrated more than satisfactory performance in all other principle functions, and then some nice thoughtful touches. I have come to love this, because of all the nice thoughtful details. Besides the FM streaming miss, this really makes a very functional and (more importantly) worry free bluetooth speakerphone. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it.",2676,0 +2677,"Very cheaply made + +Not really sure why this got so many good reviews. My first thought when I opened it up was how cheap it felt. There is hardly any weight to it, which some people might like, however, I feel that a little weight makes it feel nicer and more substantial. Especially when there is supposed to be a big battery inside. The plastic trip that snaps down over the phone is also very flimsy. Feels like it will break pretty easily if you take your phone in and out a lot. I had to fidget with it a little to get it to snap on correctly. The back of the case is very glossy. I had to be careful when holding it not to let it slip out of my hand.On a good note, it does work as advertised. I plugged my phone in and held the button down and it started charging. Seemed to charge pretty fast too. I didn't get a chance to test how many times I could recharge my phone, I sent it back the day after I received it and ordered the Incipio Off Grid Pro, found here: http://www.amazon.com/Incipio-IPH-885-offGRID-Pro-iPhone/dp/B009ABL8WO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid;=1397860086&sr;=8-1&keywords;=incipio+off+grid+proReceived the Incipio Case today and it feels so much better. Much higher quality and better soft touch feel. Comes with 2 2000 mah batteries and an external charger for them which can also be used as a portable battery for other devices.

That problem has since been solved.The written manual is very skimpy.For people who want a basic phone, this is a good one.",2678,0 +2679,"Excellent Value + +This case is a fantastic value for the price. I was in the market for a case for my Lumia 900 but wasn't wholly committed to the idea--as much as I wanted to protect this phone, it seemed a shame to cover its elegant design. I figured if I spent little on a case I wouldn't mind never using it again after testing it, if it came to that. I purchased this for 6.95, a very disposable price point, and kept my expectations very low.I was pleasantly surprised when I snapped my phone into it for the first time. It fits the device perfectly. The phone snaps in easily and is held securely. While I am confident it will never slip out of the case, it is also easy to remove if desired. (For longer phone calls, I still prefer a ""naked"" phone). The build quality is good. The leather case is fine (exceptional if the price is taken into consideration) and it only took a couple days before the leather felt used and comfortable. I have some mild concern about the glue binding the leather case to the plastic that grips the phone but whether or not that proves to be the weakness of this case remains to be seen. If it's a problem, I'll update this review--otherwise, assume it was sufficient to match the duration I continue to use this phone.The cover has 2 credit card size slots. These pockets both have stitched bottoms so you can't accidentally shove the card all the way in--there's always a half inch clearance. If like me you only wish to carry ID and one credit card, it's perfect. On multiple occasions I've had cashiers comment on how cool the case was. They're always shocked to learn that this marvel costs little more than a cup of coffee. If you were to double up in these slots, I think you'd end up with an over stuffed and awkwardly formed case.This case is held closed by a leather strap with a very weak magnet. It provides little resistance to open and won't damage the electronics but secures the case closed quite perfectly.The case doesn't interfere with the hardware in any way. The top and bottom of the phone are open, preserving your access to the speakers, headphone jack and USB plug. The side and back are cutout giving you access to the buttons and camera.All in all, this is a great case. It's stylish and functional. My review would be positive at 4x the price point; it is an absolute steal. If you're looking for a case, this one is worth your consideration. Even if you just want a part time case to take out occasionally, this is a great option as it's incredibly quick and easy to put on and take off and the ID/Credit card slots make it a viable (albeit minimal) wallet replacement for nights about town.------Update:2 months later, I've been carrying around an ID and 2 credit cards and the case is still holding together well. My only complaint is that the tiniest bits of pocket dirt get between the case and phone and really scratch up the back. The white Lumia 900 resin is far from scratch resistant! I still stand by this review and thing the case is an excellent value but if you want to keep the back of the phone in pristine condition, this case isn't for you.",2679,0 +2680,"Fake product + +Fake product...

I found the tiny flat head screwdriver useful just to get the removal process started. After that, I used the tool that was essentially a green guitar pick along with a couple of other guitar picks I grabbed (so I recommend you pick up a few extra from a local music shop). Use the pick to slide around the outside edge and slowly remove the old glass. I left picks in place on one side and would start on the other side. I also used a heat gun on a low setting and heated the glass to about 160 degrees repeatedly. It will take about 10 minutes of heat, pry, repeat to get the first edge up. After that, once you get an edge, just keep re-heating, and slowly prying up a little more. I found once you're about halfway down, if you heat, pry lightly with a pick and just hold, you can see the glass peeling away from the AMOLED on it's own. When that stops, re-heat and repeat. Also, start from the top if you can, so you don't damage the wire strip at the bottom that leads to the back and home buttons attached to the glass. By the way, that strip and the buttons at the end are held onto the glass by metallic tape. I did not, but you should save that tape to re-adhere the strip to the new glass. It will ensure those buttons stay tight up against the glass. In my case, the button for home is slightly pulled away undeneath (you can tell because it's not 100% illuminated now), but it still works. Also, be careful when taking the old glass off that you don't catch the black adhesive strip around the edge and tear. Even if you do, you can re-use it, but its easier if you can leave it in tact. Clean the old adhesive off the AMOLED and really shine up the AMOLED before putting the new glass on. Remember that the new glass has a strip of protective tape on the inside panel, remove that before putting it on your phone. I reheated the black strip before re-applying the glass, pressed the new glass in place, then re-heated again, pressing down on the edges, setting them in place.",2700,0 +2701,"AWESOME and FAST delivery!!!! + +I ordered this on the 16th of August, it shipped out on the 20th and arrived today on the 30th"" so a total of 10 days to arrive!

For our first production version of the Nexus 5, we figured that we'd give Spigen a try, since a lot of Amazon reviewers say that Spigen is better quality than Ringke.To me, this Spigen case is barely different, but equal to the Ringke SLIM case. Both are slim, and unobtrusive. The materials are similar, the design is similar, as is the apparent level of protection. Both this case and the Ringke are very good, and a good value. I would make your decision based on price and shipping times. The cases are largely equal.Both cases have a minimalist design that doesn't add much bulk to the phone.

I ran across this one while shopping for speakers actually and the thing that caught me was the sleek and simple style. I quickly sought a store attendant and requested to take it out of the box and try it on. To my surprise, it fit securely and I was even able to jump up and down with minimal wiggle and didn't fear it falling off nor did it give me any discomfort. It does take a few seconds to get on your ear, though. Not enough to bother me, so I wouldn't take points away for that minor inconvenience.As for performance, it exceeded my expectations greatly. I can walk just about 30 feet away from my phone before I start having severe trouble. This is awesome because my room gets poor reception and with this headset I can set the phone by the window and go to my desk or move here and there while still being able to talk on the phone. Sound quality was excellent and I was even told by my girlfriend, to whom I speak often on the phone, that she thought the headset improved her ability to hear me.Price! I got this headset for $40 on a military base, but I'm not sure how much it usually runs elsewhere. (In general, prices are cheaper on base.)

It transmits your cell signal through your internet connection, rather than relying on boosting an existing weak cell signal. I now get 4 to 5 bars throughout my 2 story house. You can tell your phone is connected to the unit because your phone's display of the carrier changes from ""AT&T"" to ""AT&T M-Cell."" Some limitations are that it only works for AT&T 3G phones, and you have to add each phone you will use via AT&T's website to work with the unit during set up, up to 10 phones total.

Without a data plan, these providers automatically charge transferring data per kilobyte as a basic included feature. In addition, any Nokia applications should link directly to the main browser of service network on the phone as a default without any exchange. As a result, a charge should be counted on the phone bill when starting an up-to-date of a firmware or downloading a new application over-the-air.Final words, using Wi-Fi without any charge is only when I already controlled it with the following steps (while I do not need a data plan):1. select Connectivity,2. select Wi-Fi/WLAN (on second line because the default network is on the first line),3. select and connect an IP name (already knowing its WEP),4. select Starting Browser within the above IP to surf the web by hitting it after connected. The data transferring onto the phone at this time is not through the phone Network.(If going out of this path in order to select an internet global icon on menu, this action will turn OFF the already connected Wi-Fi instead of turning ON the default network with an automatic charge).5.

I'm not sure why this is called a ""blue alligator"" case, because it's very clearly green. I wonder if Neewer was aiming for a turquoise (maybe that took up too many letters for the page link title), but I mention it because turquoise, as a stone, can be a beautiful sky blue, or full-on teal-like green, like the color that this case is. Either way, just wanted to point that out, if anyone else out there is wondering about the true color of this case.Aside from the color, yes, as others have mentioned, there IS no cutout for the S Pen, so if you're a constant user of your stylus, you might want to consider another case, if the lack of a pen cutout is going to be an issue for you. I have very short nails that break all the time, and I'm still able to cram my fingertip between the hard case cradle on the interior of the case, and the back of the exterior casing to pull the stylus out, but those with larger than my lady fingers may not be able to do the same.The lining of the case is a charcoal-colored faux suede-type fabric with no flocking (the fuzzy stuff you find on papers and synthetic fabrics a lot nowadays). The hard case base that the handset snaps into is black plastic. It's a little dark, for my taste, making me wish that the case had either a cream or soft grey lining, but it doesn't, and it's not a deal-breaker. Just thought it bore mentioning...The last thing that bugs me about this, and many other Note 2 cases, is the magnetic clasp. Just to see how strong the magnetic field is on this case, I closed it with a large safety pin placed carefully just over where the magnets snap together to close the case. Without any cards in the slots, the safety pin just barely held on when the case was flipped over, leaving the safety pin hanging from inside the case upside down. Since I read online that nickel can break a magnetic field, and I happen to make jewelry in my spare time, I had a sheet of nickel handy. I sawed out a credit card-sized sheet of nickel, filed the edges, and stuck it in the middle credit card slot. That seems to have done the trick. Another consideration, though, if you don't have sheet nickel handy to do the same, is whether or not those magnets are likely to de-magnetize any credit cards you place in those slots. If the magnets can mess with the screen and S Pen detection, I don't think there's much to say for the guaranteed safety of your credit card's magnetized strips...Overall, I like the look of this case. As others have said, it's well-made, and stylish. As a co-worker of mine said, ""not too girly"", professional-looking, and it doesn't look cheap.

I have to credit both Microsoft and HP for doing a poor job, and T-mobile for selling it and not taking it back. I have a very long memory, and share my opinions. It's the worst device I own, maybe ever. Cost so much I can't bear to replace it, and not worth much on ebay, for good reason. If you want to pay extra for a PDA then chose this.

It did take a few resets to get the unit to work smoothly with the Update Phonebook option as well as to alleviate some static issues with incoming sound clarity but all-in-all this is the best BT I've ever used. People I call repeatedly mention how clear I sound and how it mimics the quality of a landline. One thing I noticed straight out of the box was that incoming sound quality would vary if the connected phone was moved around (in-hand) or kept in my pocket. The best way to describe it is that it sounds like the static you could get on older cordless phones. It took a bit of wait time to finally get through to customer support but they were keenly thorough in having me reset my device. Sound quality is much improved since the reset but I have noticed some continued (albeit minor) static with regard to incoming sound quality. BlueAnt ensured me that if the problem persists that they will quickly replace the unit. It spanks all the Jawbone, Motorola and Sony/Ericsson models I've tried. My gut tells me that with this being a new product a future firmware update will help boost performance. The update software that comes with the device is pretty straight forward too.- Simple to use and the voice prompting is well implemented- Very comfortable to wear (and I use the ear hook)- Charges quickly- Having a contact list inside the device to provide caller ID anouncements is a nice feature- Initializes my phones built in voice command features quickly and without a hitch- No dropped pairing thus far (knock on wood)List price is a bit steep but shop it - it's a tremendous value at anything less than 90 bucks",2751,0 +2752,"Good case but not green + +I like the case itself a lot.

In the past, after tiring of damaging the audio jack on various phones and mp3 players from inadvertent pulling of the wires, I went for a set of LG bluetooth earphones. I beat them up for a year, and other than their tendency to fall backwards off my neck when doing bench press, I loved them...until a rental car swallowed them up in Dec. So, off to Amazon to buy the new and improved LG HBS-730. Wow....LG..what happened? The first pair had the audio quality of cats in heat, and range was awful. I returned them and got a new set, which were WORSE right out of the box. So, back they went and LG was out as a choice.I did a TON of research on many units here on Amazon, and other places, and stumbled on this unit. The audio quality is light years ahead of my LG units, no wires or neck harness to slip off when laying down, and the controls are big and very easy to use. I have read the reviews about the battery life here,but since I will use these for workouts, a 3-6 hr battery life is plenty. I also don't care if they don't function as a phone mic as I don't take calls during my workouts. Overall, these are well worth the extra 20 bucks or so over the LG's, are very easy to pair and I figured out how to quickly use them without having to brush up on my Japanese to read the directions!",2753,0 +2754,"Ok for the price + +It looks exactly like the picture and its a firm silicone.

All of the kinks that people had with the phone when it was released have been resolved. The MP3 player is awesome and the buttons on the front of the phone work, without any special setup. Downloading songs is very simple. Put your miniSD card into the phone and select the option to format the card from the phone. By formatting the card on your phone, it will add the appropriate folders for mp3s, ringtones, etc. Then remove the card and use a card reader on your computer to paste your songs into the mp3 folder. To play the songs on your phone, just hold the play button on the front of the phone. SO SIMPLE and eliminates the need for a separate mp3 player. The songs sound great, they even have an equalizer on the phone for sound optimization. You can buy a stereo headset that can be used to make phone calls. The phone also has a speakerphone, which is activated by holding the CLR button (not in manual). I tried the Motorola e815 for a couple days, as a former LG user I had some irritating issues. The alarm clock cannot be set for Monday thru Friday, which means it will go off every morning unless you manually turn it off (silly, but important). The vibrate on the Motorola is virtually non existent. You will NOT see/hear the phone vibrate on a table to let you know a call is coming on. This is important for those of us with consideration for others in restaurants. The motorola does not have the front buttons for the mp3 player, which is a nice addition.

My only minor problem so far is that the mount can rotate forward on the handlebars after a period of time doing very rough off trail mountain biking. In this case I have to reach down tonrotate the mount back towards me again. I need to put some anti-slide material on the handlebars. Overall, however, it is a really good solution.

Putting out a 3800mah WITH nfc for almost a 1/4th of the cost. :D lol. Battery adds a fair amount of heft to the phone. I don't mind it, nor do I mind the extra thickness. Yesterday, I was on my home wifi, full brightness, and used my phone obnoxiously, thing made it through the whole day no problem and I had like 20% left when I was going to bed. The back cover blends in very nicely with the rest of the phone, unlike the sedio back cover that is just obnoxiously black. I'm using Trexcell Transparent Black Thermoplastic case with this battery and it fits it like a glove.If your rooted, I would recommend getting battery calibrator from google play, so you get accurate readings of your phones charge. (This does not help increase battery life FYI!)Great battery! :)UPDATE:Keep in mind, WiFi uses a lot less battery than LTE. Its super easy to use your phone for literally two days strait and have it not die for this reason. I've had this battery now for several weeks, and it is definitely better than stock. On a really good day, putting my phone in airplane mode when I'm in a bad area, low brightness, sync off, etc. Total screen on time for me on average is about 2 hours. The best time i've gotten is 18 hours on a charge, the average is around 12 hours for me. I used full brightness all day on one of the days and I got 10 hours.I seriously recommend getting franco kernel with this battery. It really does stretch out your battery by UN/UV your cpu when your not using it.I'm using the sedio case with this battery now, a simple modification will make it fit like a glove with this case. :)*******UPADATE********I bought a second battery for a few reasons. One, the battery cover tab on the bottom left broke off because I've been popping this battery out and putting in my OEM battery because I've ran out of juice at like 10pm and I need my phone for a few more hours, and the cover is just not designed for that kinda abuse. I was being careful, but it still just broke off. Without that tab the case would separate itself from the phone, and it would cause problems with my sedio case staying closed. I used this as an excuse to buy a second battery, because based on some of the reviews people have put up, my first battery was not lasting that long at all.I compared my new battery to the one I've been using, and the way the battery is made was slightly different. Its hard to explain but you can tell its a different batch. After only one complete discharge and recharge, I used my phone today without connecting to Wi-Fi at all, used full brightness most of the day, and I'm at 15 hours of battery life with the screen on time at 3 hours. I'm very happy. I am also running Franco's Kernel nightly build 290. Max CPU 1305mhz, Min CPU 230mhz, and I used the dyninteractive scaling governor.If you think your battery life sucks, try Franco's kernel. If it still sucks, even though you shouldn't have to, try buying a second battery.

To add to the annoyance of daily charging the flap that covers the charging port is poorly designed.I have since switched to the SCH-u900 FlipShot. The Samsung is not quite as good of a phone, but it does have a better camera and holds a charge much longer. I am keeping the u900, but I do miss my V9m.

Most of the time while Im using the phone I dont notice but forget using it outside if the sun is up. They drive me crazy.

I installed it right away and gave it a full charge.The battery ran hot about 75% of the time. Worse - it would only last about 12-14 hours on a charge, which was less than the stock battery did. The kicker - since this was an extended battery, it was slightly wider than the stock battery.

Going into the AT&T; store in my area I fully intended to purchase a Quickfire; however, the sales associate strongly suggested that I not waste money on it as they were recalling the product due to the battery's tendency to catch on fire. I said that what I really wanted was a full QWERTY keyboard (since I text so darn much), preferably landscape since my Centro had a squashed keyboard and I wanted something more spacious. So he directed me to the Xenon.Pros:- The phone is gorgeous. I mean, it's a really beautiful device. Very sleek, and the touch of chrome is a really nice addition. The little design on the back is a very nice touch, in my opinion. It's flat-out pretty.- The touch screen is quite responsive, after I calibrated it a couple of times and got used to the learning curve of a touch-only phone (my Centro had a touch screen, but it was for use with a stylus).- The keyboard is amazing--very well spaced out, with large, firm keys.- The slider feels very strong, not flimsy like the Propel (which a friend has), and even though I slid it up and down dozens of times a day, it doesn't feel like it's weaker.- It's durable if you're careful. I've dropped it twice, once from a height of two feet and once from about four feet, and both times the phone landed on its back. No scratches are evident. There's a couple of very small scratches on the end key, and a minor, hard to see chip on the chrome. The screen is fine and I don't use a protector or a case (I am looking into a rubberized hard case, as I had a clear hard case and it was useless).- Call quality is very, very good. I can always hear my speakers well, and they hear me great too. I've only had a few dropped calls, and all because I was in an area with extremely low service. Everywhere else has been great.- I love the threaded messages! I had that on my Centro and was initially forlorn about not having it on the Xenon until I started texting and realized that it had that capability. Threaded texts make longer conversations much easier. And I like how the messages are provided in little ""speech bubbles.""- The side lock button is well placed and easy to use. The screen lock is dependable.- I have a 2GB micro SD card and have put music on it. I like that the phone automatically converts any media to the SD card once it's inserted, and the sound of the music played over the speakers isn't too bad (more on the music later, since I do have a grievance with it).- Figuring out everything on this phone didn't take me long--I never even had to look in the manual. I like that the layout is simple, clean, and easy.- The camera takes really lovely photos, with bright, accurate colors and fantastic clarity. The flash is useful but results in murkier photos, in my opinion.- There is an ""alarm only"" sound option, which turns off the ringer, message indicator, and vibration, leaving only your alarm to sound. I like this when I go to sleep at night, as I use this phone as an alarm.Cons:- Why on earth do you have a phone with MP3 capabilities...yet no headphone jack? This phone requires a micro USB adapter for use with headphones...yet LG and AT&T; don't have one made? I find that ridiculous. I don't want to hear anyone's music blaring from their phones, so I sure won't blare mine. If you want to listen to this phone with headphones, you either have to get a bluetooth headset (I believe the LG ones that are compatible with this phone are about [...]) or the cheap-looking wired headset. I for one will wait for an adapter to crop up.- This phone has been freezing on me about once or twice a week. It's not enough to make me give up on the phone since I really like it, but it's annoying having to take out the battery and restart the phone.- This is a very minor issue, but when you slide the keyboard out and the layout changes to landscape...the picture doesn't. It's kind of an odd effect.- Obviously the calendar on here is no match for the Centro (which is the main reason why I bought it the horrid Centro first place). I'm the kind of person that likes to be painfully organized, and my Centro was great for that, but a POS for everything else. I don't HATE the calendar on this phone, but it's definitely not to be used for that feature.- The battery life is on the low side if you have the brightness up the whole way. I've learned that it lasts about 2.5 days with medium use on the lowest battery setting, but I could often go four or five days using my Centro heavily. This just took some getting used to and remembering to charge it more often.- Apparently Bare Minerals makeup and this screen do not mix--it often smudges very, very badly. Any bit of dirt or oil on the screen shows big time. I find myself cleaning it more often than I'd like.I really, truly am happy with this phone. For a heavy texter like me it's a dream come true, and I think that, for the price (with the mail-in rebate from AT&T;) it's a pretty good investment. I'd recommend this for sure, unless you're looking for something perfect. Perfection is something that you can't get with the Xenon, but it's clearly the best phone I have ever owned.[UPDATE 2/16/10]I've had more problems with this phone than before, but it's still the best phone I've ever owned. It freezes on me more often, sometimes up to three or four times a day, then it'll be fine for a week or so before starting again. That's frustrating. And I found a really strange issue where I can't hang up using the physical end button during a call, even if my caller has already hung up. I have to unlock the phone and use the touchscreen, or jab the end button a dozen times.The sound quality of the speaker is pretty good, though I still can't find a good enough pair of headphones that will work with it, so I just use my iPod and will resort to using my phone if I'm driving or at home. I don't want to pay the cash for wireless bluetooth headphones, but luckily for me it's not necessary.[FINAL UPDATE 7/27/10]Totally frustrated. The freezing of the screen started happening every third time I sent a text message. AT&T; was great, though, helping me to get a replacement phone...but the replacement freezes just as much, even though I've tried everything from deleting messages in my inboxes once they get close to 50 to taking all my photos off and keeping them on my computer instead. If you're a fast texter, you're screwed. As soon as my upgrade is available in March, I'm definitely getting something else. So final conclusion for this phone: It works great for eight months, decent for a year, then that's it. I still like the thing, unfortunately, and wish it worked out for at LEAST the duration of my contract, but that's sadly not the case.",2782,0 +2783,"Huge Reception Problems on Verizon!! + +Let me first say that this phone is sleek, and feature rich.

I was standing right next to a fellow Verizon user with 4 bars of signal (albeit 3G) on his blackberry. This phone was ""searching for signal"". It wasn't until I encountered this problem that I started looking and found post after post since this phones release about this very problem. No fix released but one has been promised since December 2011. DO NOT buy this phone until they release the fix assuming it can be done with software and that it isn't a hardware problem. Very disappointed to be boxing it back up to send it back, but I have no other choice. The reception is just that bad. I will say that when it was connected, it was lightning fast, but that was only 50% of the time at best in an area where I had never had reception problems.",2783,1 +2784,"A useful accessory + +Even if you have a spare battery for your cell phone, you still can't charge either battery until you stop using your phone. This charger fixes that problem, and lets you charge one battery while you're using the phone with the other. LG should offer this as a standard accessory, but for some reason they don't. Anyway, it works great, and the price is right (though it does take several hours to fully charge a depleted battery). The LED indicates when the battery is fully charged.",2784,0 +2785,"Much Better than Expected + +We were looking for a cheap iphone cover and this was far better than we expected. The case seems to be durable (we are about a month in, and my wife takes it to the gym, etc., as well as daily use and it still looks new).

It is only in the fine print of the packaged document does it say ""5000 mAh at 3.7V"". So they are talking about the current capacity of just the internal battery.This means that the most I can get out of this power pack is 3700 mAh at 5V. Furthermore, given typical power conversion efficiencies, I will be luck to get 3000 mAh at 5V. That is a far cry from 5000. Why advertise a mAh rating that cannot be accessed? This is deceptive.Once I got past the deception, it really is a good 3000 mAh power pack. I particularly like that it power down when the load is removed and constantly shows me the state of the internal battery.Sometimes my iPod Touch indicates that the voltage from the power pack is out of spec low. When I wiggle the cable connections, the voltage comes back up. It is just a minor and rare annoyance. My guess is they didn't take into account the voltage drop in the cable. It only takes about 0.5 ohms of cable plus connector resistance to drop the voltage from 5.00V down to 4.75V (at 500 mA) which is the lower limit for a USB.",2788,0 +2789,"not comfortable at all + +i could not wear this for any extended amount of time. exchanged it for an over the head wireless version.",2789,0 +2790,"Love the way it looks... that's about it.. + +I loved the first Jawbone headset and the Icon.

But here's the kicker: Jawbone's support states that your warranty runs only from the *actual date of sale*. That's right, you lose the days it took you to receive it. And then, if the one received doesn't work, you lose those days waiting for the replacement. So it is no longer tied to when you first actually are able to sync the band.

I purchased a new, unlocked PEBL from an online retailer in December 2006 so I owned it for four months; I did not turn bluetooth on, either. I figured I needed new batteries so I bought these because the price was excellent.Well, you get what you pay for! The batteries look new and are labeled just like the one that came with my PEBL, but unfortunately the first battery I tried would not even charge; the second battery charged but depleted rapidly (my PEBL would show three bars but then turn itself off) after about 2 weeks of use. These batteries didn't work for me and neither did my PEBL, so I got rid of all.I do not trust Motorola's specs on battery life; except for the RAZR I have not owned a Moto phone that has delivered on its technical specs.

I think that to use any of the PDA style phones, one has to be willing to put up with at least some quirkiness. I found the 650 to be fairly reliable and the 700p is similar and shares about the same level of the aforementioned quirkiness. Given that I upgraded I'll comment on the changes between the two models.This phone has a 1.3 Megapixel camera that is far superior to the one on the 650. The images are of course larger, but they are better too and the image browsing tool is superior.Probably the most important feature of this phone is the ability to use broadband cell networks. Called ""EVDO"", this phone can connect and use such a network. There isn't one in my city, but I travel often and notice a significant improvement where I can access EVDO. Downloads are faster and email synching is very fast.One part of the 650 that was very unreliable and boardered on useless was the Bluetooth. This phone uses version 1.2 instead of 1.1 of Bluetooth and is much, much better. I can finally use a Bluetooth phone headset with my Treo (but you still can't use a Bluetooth audio headset).I find the keyboard easier to use on the 700p and some of the software is better also including a music player that works very well.My only complaint is that this phone fails much more often when trying to connect to a data network especially when traveling from place to place (city to city). I think this must be a Verizon thing and I have done nothing to trouble-shoot it, but there definitely is a problem connecting to data and downloading in some situations.

That's a boon to people like myself who tend to use their smartphone as a primary source for music rather than a separate device like and iPod. Assuming one can hear/feel their phone ringing, the dance to get said phone of the pocket comes next, along with the hope of not accidentally hanging up on the caller or answering before ready. With the BT Lite, it should be as easy as tapping the answer button on the side of the device's housing. The music pauses, you and the caller are connected, and the conversation is a go. When the call ends, the music picks back up, right where you left off.To get any of this to work one has to pair the headset to their device. The pairing is a make or break point for any Bluetooth device, both initially and every subsequent connection afterwards. In my experience, the BT Lite's pairing wasn't great. My EVO would pair up, stream music ok, but would dump calls within a minute. This would require me to toggle either the EVO's Bluetooth off, or, turn the headset on and off, before the two would play nice again. Pairing up with the Kindle Fire HD would occasionally get spotty, especially if the BT Lite had been connected to a different device previously. The BT Lite would think it was connected, but the Kindle Fire HD didn't think so. Clearing these hitches required me to reboot the Kindle HD before the two would talk to each other. Three remaining devices all seemed to pair up ok and be happy with the BT Lite at all times. After having such a perfect experience with theSatechi BT Touch, I was disappointed that the same couldn't be said for the BT Lite.Aside from the pairing issues noted above, the BT Lite functioned great. Sound quality was good, with a pleasing amount of bass. The music controls built into the chassis worked perfectly with all devices, allowing me to pause, play, jump forward or backwards. Each app I used the controls with responded without fail, including Pandora, Amazon MP3, Google Music, and BeyondPod Podcast Manager. In terms of comfort, the BT Lite is fair. The padding on the ear pieces is nice and decently thick, but the BT Lite did get a bit uncomfortable to wear after a while. I'm still experimenting to see if it's a matter of positioning or something else. My guess is the tension on the headband may be a little to much. Battery life lived up to the advertised 6hrs, and blessedly, the BT Lite uses the same micro-USB charging port as several of my other devices, so there was no need to carry around yet another cable/charger.",2838,0 +2839,"Great slim case. + +I originally purchase defender case for my Razr and couldn't stand it. I was going to get a commuter series case to replace it but i wanted to wait and see if any other decent cases would be made available. Once i saw this case i knew it was the one. I bought an Incipio case for my Zune HD 2yrs ago and it's worked out great. The case is definitely more like a commuter series than a defender type from otterbox which is what i was looking for. It looks great, fits great, and has nice matte texture to it so it's not extra slick or overly grippy. It keeps the slim shape and nice lines of the Razr well. It also slips in and out of my pockets very easily which is a huge plus. The Otterbox defender would probably withstand more severe abuse but at the cost of it's bulk. Also this case just feels like quality while the defender felt cheap as soon as I had it in my hands. This is definitely the case to get, especially if you're worried about adding bulk to the phone.",2839,0 +2840,"ease of mind.... + +i'm happy now to have the ease of mind of having spare batteries for my evo. the batteries seem to fit okay and work fine but unfortunately the first battery i tried (after fully charging of course) lasted only about half as long as the original battery that came with the evo. and it was idle 95% of the time (and of course on the exact same settings as i had using the original battery)! also they are supposed to be 1800mAh whereas the original is 1500mAh, meaning theoretically these spare ones should last longer....i don't know maybe the first battery is bad. i'll try out the second one and will update my review accordingly...*update*so the second battery is about the same.... also the wall charger takes FOREVER to fully charge anything. i think it took a good 12 hours or so to fully charge a completely drained battery....not very convenient whereas charging in the phone averages about 1% per minute so at most it would take an hour and a half or so to charge a completely drained battery. oh well, i still do like that i have spare batteries that i can use for about 4-7 hours each (depending on usage of course) if needed, especially when out and about during the weekends and late evenings and not having to worry about trying to conserve battery life. also the the price is pretty decent for getting two batteries...i would say that the charger is pretty useless though since it takes so long to charge anything....*2nd update*i raised my rating from 3 to 4 stars on this because the batteries seem to be lasting much longer now. i got about 12 or so hours out of one of them yesterday (not heavy usage but i had all the automatic syncs and updates on, 4g on, as well as the display brightness set to auto, all of which takes a quite a bit of juice to run, whereas initially it died at about 6-7 hours with it being idle 95% of the time. maybe they just need a few cycles of being completely drained and charged to prolong the life on them? the charger is still useless because it takes so long but i'm extremely happy with the batteries now nonetheless... ^_^ this weekend i'll test how long they last with the gps on and the navigation going.....",2840,0 +2841,"Great product and service + +This is my second Skinomi product and I'm very happy with them both. If you're patient and follow their instructions carefully when putting it on, you should have no trouble. There is a curing time and the small micro-bubbles will disappear over time. The first time took about a week...this time only about 48 hours.I washed my hands and cleaned the phone with a lint free cloth (a 3M Microfiber Cloth works greatMicrofiber Electronics Cleaning Cloth). I then wet my fingers using the supplied spray bottle and removed the skin from the backing doing so from one of the bottom corners. It was easier for me to apply the top portion of the skin to the phone first and align it to the ear speaker so removing the skin from the backing by a bottom corner reduced my handling of the skin. Wet the skin thoroughly...getting liquid on the entire surface! I allowed the excess liquid to drip off for a few seconds. Once aligned, squeegee out the excess liquid carefully using the lint free cloth to catch any drips. I didn't like the ""squeegee"" that they provide (I felt it had too sharp an edge) so I used a piece of stiff cardboard (from the back of a notepad) which worked great. Squeegee away from the ear speaker, not towards. I used enough pressure to bend the cardboard a little but you shouldn't need to press too hard. Finally I gently wiped up any remaining moisture with the lint free cloth.The instructions say to leave the phone off for 12-24 hours. The first time I put a Skinomi skin on, I had the phone on within an hour and had no problems. I was perhaps impatient but I also knew that I controlled the liquid well and none got inside the phone. This time I applied the skin before bed and left the phone off for about 10 hours, again with no problems.This time after the installation, I noticed what looked like a 2"" long hairline scratch that produced a prism like effect. I've seen others mention this problem on various forums and it appears to be a manufacturing defect. I emailed Skinomi about this and got a response within 24hrs saying that they were shipping me a new skin immediately at no charge.Again, this is my second Skinomi skin.

I felt like if you were going to really need it, then you might as well build some kind of waterproof speaker on this case.

If you want to see the screen and use the phone while providing some protection, get a rubber or plastic case (this one is just as thick on the iPhone as many of the rubber and plastic ones without providing the shock protection).

There are fewer apps available for Symbian and there's no SD memory slot. However, once you get used to navigating the Symbian OS's settings screens and get the 3 home screens setup the way you want, this phone cannot be beat. It is relatively quick, the switching between 3G and WiFi is flawless, the calls sound great, the video quality is the best I've ever seen on a phone (try uploading a digital copy of a blu-ray movie) and the keyboard is a joy to type on. Battery life is better than most and the 16 gig memory is sufficient. The Exchange integration is excellent and the OVI maps are awesome (The Trip Advisor integration is a nice touch too). It feels solid and looks great. After using various Android phones and an iPhone 4, I have to say this phone has them beat by far. Yes, there are some things that Android phones or iPhones do better, but overall, feature for feature, this phone is simply the best smartphone on the market at this time.

Unlike some cases with corner straps, mounting the Touch was simple; just put the Kindle into the bottom straps first then snap the elastic top ones over the corners. Oh, and before you do that, fold the case all the way around backwards and squeeze a crease into the leather ""binding"" strip so the case stays open.The clasp is especially cleverly designed. It looks like a snap and it is but it's also a magnetic clasp. The clever part is, when you fold the cover all the way around, the two parts of the clasp mate so the closure strap holds the case in the open position, too.As you can probably tell, I like things that are well designed, simple and well made.

The pictures make it look a bit more elegant and fancy than it really feels once you get it. It feel like poor quality vinyl and leather and seems to be made with hard cardboard chunks inside. The strap that flips over the top is not soft enough to allow various height phones to be used so unless your phone happens to fit perfectly (my old Blackberry Curve 8310 was almost a perfect fit, my new Samsung Captivate did NOT fit), the strap will not stay closed as the magnet is not quite strong enough to hold it in place.As I indicated, I bought this holster for my new Samsung Captivate (Galaxy S model for AT&T;) but it is just about 3 or 4 millimeters too tall to fit this holster properly. This makes it so the strap will not stay closed over the phone and just kind of flaps around.Additionally, the case is just barely wide enough to fit either the Captivate or the Curve, either one is a task to get the phone in or out of the holster as it is so tight. I'm sure this would eventually result in dropping the phone at some point on the way in or out of the holster.It's disappointing because it is a nice *looking* holster for sure, just that the build quality is not quite what it looks like in the pictures and the size is not quite right for the phones I wanted it for.",2867,0 +2868,"Fun phone + +I bought this phone both for the high geek quotient, and because my Samsung Galaxy is down to about 4.5 hours battery life, even with GPS and 4G turned off most of the time, and also doesn't get good reception in my house with Sprint service.

DSL is not yet an option.What I had in mind was to use the CellRanger to boost the signal going to my laptop. I have a Toshiba Satellite M115 laptop with Sierra Wireless USBConnect 881 on an AT&T; 3G Network.When I got the CellRanger, the label on the package stated: ""IMPORTANT For proper function, your Cellular device should be 12 inches or more from the CellRanger unit."" Keeping 12 inches or more, I tried for 6 days in my yard, car, & house to get more bars with no success.When I began an email dialog with CellRanger support, they stated that "" CellRanger should be no further then say 5""-6"" from your USB-881 you might need a 15"" USB extension cable to position the devices."" I tried this but when you got too close, the USB-881 kicked offline & had to be unplugged, then re-inserted before it would work again, so more bars means nothing if you can't stay online.I relayed the above info to CellRanger support & no solution was supplied, just a comment about wireless being like medication, it doesn't work for everyone. Needless to say, I sent the CellRanger back.In a nutshell: Unless you enjoy aggravation, keep the CellRanger away from your laptop.The good news is that I found a much cheaper solution with 100x less aggravation (i.e. you simply plug it in and it works): Wilson Electronics model 301103 Magnet Mount 5dB Gain Cellular Antenna & model 359924 Adapter Cable for Sierra Wireless 595U Air Card.

The U-Tree fit the bill and then some. The 'corddock' piece is built for a 30 pin connector but has a hole (referred to as the 'cable strain releif' in the instructions) just behind that which fits the lightning cable perfectly if you move one of the rubber bands from the 30 pin holder to the side of the smaller hole. The lightning cable end fits in snug enough against the rubber to hold it solidly when you dock and undock the phone, but not so hard that it's deforming the cable housing.I mounted mine with the vent clip in the middle of the stalk, bent the top and bottom of the stalk back to touch the dash and the whole thing is rock solid. The top support arms work great if you move them both all the way left on their slider to clear the power button. I actually swivel the right one sideways to give some more side support. All it takes to dock and undock is a push against the top support arm(s) to slide it in/out of place. The only thing that's a little iffy is the headphone jack. There's room for a slim mini-plug beside the corddock support but a fat one would be pretty tight. I use bluetooth so I don't have to worry about it.All in all I couldn't be happier. I don't think a purpose-built iPhone 5 mount could work much better, to be honest!Update, 2/26/13: The rubber bands I was using to hold the lightning cable eventually all broke. They weren't really designed for that application so I'm not changing my rating. Still a great value for the price.",2879,0 +2880,"Cool Watch + +I don't have a SIM card yet, so I don't know the quality of the phone function of this watch. About the other things though:Design: The watch looks cool, and I've received a lot of compliments from people. They suspect that it's not ""just a watch"" and occasionally ask about it. Sometimes if I feel like it, I like to show the person some of its other functions and watch their jaw drop. Other times, I can just pass it off as a watch and feel like a spy. So, fun stuff aside...the screen is a bit big, so it's probably better suited for men. It looks a little less natural on women, but I'm ok with it. Overall, good design.Difficulty: The instruction manual that came with it wasn't too helpful when it came to details, but it covered the basics. I had to experiment for a while to find out exactly what this watch could do. Even now, I don't think I've figured out the whole thing. For example: Originally, every time I pressed a button, turned it on/off, etc, it would make really loud, annoying sounds. After exploring a bit, I finally found a mute setting, but it wasn't so obvious to find. Now, I think the online description of this watch says it includes a calculator, but I still haven't been able to find it. Overall, it takes some experimenting and time, but eventually it's pretty simple to use. I wish there was some more in-depth manual out there though.Functions: All the watch's extra capabilities make it a must for gadget lovers. Its multimedia functions include audio player/recorder, video player/recorder, camera, and a handy file manager to keep track of all those things.~The camera takes pretty small but decent pictures, 128x128. I would prefer a slightly better quality/bigger photo, but that's just me. The camera also isn't very noticeable, so if you turn off the shutter sound, it's pretty good for taking secret pictures. Um. Yeah. You should probably ask permission from people first though. Should, anyways.~The audio recorder isn't too great. I can barely distinguish voices, so it's not too good for recording lectures. There might be a way to improve the mic reception, but I haven't found it yet.~The video recorder uses up a lot of space. I haven't bought a mini SD card yet, so I haven't been able to try the video recorder. There's half a MB or so of built-in space in the watch, but that's not enough for a second of video recording.~There are also a bunch of other misc. functions, kind of like on a normal phone. Stuff like and organizer, a calendar, a stop watch, etc. Things like the planner are impractical because of how small the keyboard is, but it's still a cool thing to have.Battery: I like how they included two. If you charge both, you can easily switch them for twice the battery life. Most of the time, my watch is on standby anyways. I only occasionally check the time and sometimes use the other functions, mostly multimedia. One battery lasts me about 3 days, but if I guess if I were to use it more, then the two batteries would get me through the day.Conclusion: I think I've covered the main stuff about this phone watch. Sorry about not being able to comment on the important thing-the phone part. Judging by the poor audio recorder, I don't think talking through the watch would be a good idea, but the included earphone and Bluetooth set should make up for it. The earphone has a built in mic too. Without a SIM card, there are still so many functions I can't use (SMS messaging, speed dial, even this one button that I think means INTERNET) So overall, I really like my watch, though I definitely would change certain things. (audio recorder, better manual, etc) It's great for gadget lovers and really can impress people.",2880,0 +2881,"please don't buy this phone! + +I bought the phone around 2 months ago, so I can give valuable comments on it.

The thing that was the most frustrating for me was it's inability to efficiently perform the basic purpose of a phone: to make a simple phone call. I have had this phone for 2 years, and these are the reasons why you should not buy it:1) It takes 10-30 seconds to make phone calls, and often crashes in the process.2) Text messaging is slow. Slow to load. And when it looks like it has loaded, it hasn't, and you still can't use it. When typing in a contact, for the first 15-30 seconds it won't load your contact options. When you receive a text while typing a different text, it will exit what you're typing and take you to the inbox.3) Internet is slow4) Applications are slow5) It sometimes won't turn on and just sit in a blinking ""samsung"" limbo6) The camera is slow AND takes terrible pictures7) It is much too easy to push buttons unknowingly when you're talking on the phone8) It sometimes won't show you the caller ID until you have no time left to answer the phone9) Sometimes it won't let you answer or hang up a phone call (I've had to take the battery out to end a phone call on far too many occasions)I would have been happier with a basic non-smart phone. I eventually gave up on using this phone for anything other than trying to make phone calls and texting. It is not a good phone for social media or applications. This phone is just plain slow in absolutely everything you want it to do. The only thing good I can say about it - is that it DID last me 2 years. And I only suffered with it so long because of our plan contract. But if you want a durable phone, and making calls and texting is something that's important to you - you'd be better off getting a basic phone. If you want internet capabilities - get a different smart phone, even if you have to spend a little more money.

A gentle squeeze, the thing goes squeaky and shaky. Unlike most other car adapters, this one doesn't have a snugly fit into the cigarette lighter. It is just so wobbly everywhere. Avoid such low quality products to keep your life sane.An update: I subsequently purchased a few Universal Mini USB Car Charger Adapters offered by Eforcity (search Amazon or eBay).

If I try to ring myself from another phone my 808 never rings, nor do I get the answer/hangup buttons, its as if I am ringing another person! (Even though I can hear a ringing tone on the other phone!)2. Looking at the phone it shows a strong signal. (A slight tell-tale is that the signal strength no longer varies, if I walk to a location that I know has a strong signal, it doesn't change, if I walk to a location that I know has a weak/no signal, it doesn't change!)3. Incoming text messages do not arrive until I reboot.4. Outgoing text messages fail to send, they just sit in the outbox until I reboot the phone.5. Data connections over the cell network fail to connect.6. Rebooting the phone fixes the issue for a few hours.It is very hard to spot that the phone has entered this state. So this was happening for my entire first month of ownership and I had no idea, as I don't receive many phone calls anyway!This happens AT LEAST twice a day, based on how often I've ""caught"" the phone in this state. But there is NO visual indication that the phone has ""dropped off"" the cell network, the phone works fine over wifi at this point and the cell signal strength indicator is still showing a strong signal.Basically this phone can not be used to reliably receive incoming calls, the camera however is brilliant!

The best I'd been able to do was to attach my BlackBerry (which has surprisingly good speakers for music) to my handlebars, but it was a jury-rigged setup at best...and not nearly loud enough.I found this product and thought I'd give it a try.First thing you must know is that you must attach it properly to a horizontal handle-bar relative to your seated position on the bike. Attaching the other way (say to your handlebar stem or head) the thing does not secure well.You'll next note that the device has a terrible propensity for just plain falling off...there is a small plastic release handle that you depress to release it form it's holder on your handle bar..but it is extremely sensitive to even the slightest touch...and you'll not know you even bumped it until the unit falls to the ground and you have to circle back in traffic to retrieve it. Not good. I finally put some tape over the little release handle to keep it from being accidentally depressed.However...once I got past that I thought things were going to be OK. The sounds is really great, and nice and loud. However...actually turning the thing on is something of a chore. The small grey rubber multi-function button plate on the yellow top is maddening.

However to power the unit on you must depress it in the very center and hold it a moment..without accidentally pressing any of these other four directional (up/down/left/right) keys.

I have to take the phone out of the case and charge them separately. When its low on charge, all four blue lights blink repeatedly. So until you charge it again, every time you use your phone, you have to stare at four bright blinking blue lights below your screen.

It certainly has lots of bells and whistles. And it certainly is a much better phone in terms of hardware and software than the iPhone. However, I returned this phone within 4 days of having it for a number of reasons:1) I need a phone that is reliable, durable, and functional for traveling. This phone does not do that. It has only 3G service in North America and some parts of South America. It does not have 3G service in Europe, Asia, or Africa.2) The phone is nowhere near as durable as a Blackberry. Not even close. Though it is much more durable than an iPhone. Unless you are in the habit of replacing your phone every 6 months because a new trinket catches your eye, this phone will not last 3 years of use and abuse. The screen will crack, the camera will scratch, etc. Nothing new here that iPhone users will not be accustomed to.3) With a fully charged battery, I left the phone on idle with it only connected to the 3G network for cellular phone service (no data). The battery was dead in 18 hours. Totally dead. I can leave my Blackberry in the same configuration for 10 days without any worries. This battery issue alone is enough to disqualify this phone for serious use.4) It is basically impossible to sync Outlook with the Android contacts/calendar. The only way is to sync Outlook with GMail servers, and then sync that with Android. This means that you must be ok with allowing Google to have access to all your contacts, calendar, and whatever else you are syncing.

Barely noticeable when the screen is on. The Razr Maxx screen isn't a top contender for clarity anyway so there is no tangible impact.2. Protector leaves out some space around the edges of the screen. This could be due to the Maxx screen being beveled, so a flat screen protector can never reach the absolute edges of the screen, but just slightly longer and wider wouldn't have hurt. The way it is right now, you can clearly see the edges of the screen protector with most slim cases.3.

After shopping phones, service plans, and prices, I choose the Motorola V400 with Cingular service. I upgraded from a Motorola V120, and was also looking at the V600, but Cingular discontinued this one due to technical problems. I also considered the Nokia 6820 with AT&T; Wireless (Cingular now owns them).Plusses: crystal clear reception (I do a lot of traveling), quad band (works anywhere in the world), easy to use, large keys, bright and clear screen, relatively long battery life between rechargings (big improvement over my V120), clear speakerphone, useful secondary screen when folded, external ringer adjustment, multimedia capabilities, excellent zoom camera for a cell phone, attractive design, excellent personal organizer, and compatibility with many inexpensive accessories. Also, Cingular's multimedia messaging service (MMS) works very well with this phone.Minuses: no bluetooth (like the Nokia 6820), no foldout querty keyboard (again, like the Nokia 6820), no hands-free headset (purchased separately), phonebook only holds one number per person, and slightly too thick in size.There is not much that Motorola could do to improve this phone. It does most things flawlessly, but I would like to see the next generation phone include those minuses (very minor) I mentioned above.The bottom line is that this is a cool phone that I would highly recommend. The phone offers a multitude of features at a moderate price, and, with Cingular service, works very well. The Nokia 6820 with AT&T; Wireless was my second choice, but it was much more expensive overall, and the phone was lacking some of the features and performance in this phone.",2942,0 +2943,"Otterbox Commuter + +This is by far the best phone case I have ever purchased.

The cuttouts for the speakers and camera are the right size and allow complete functionality. The screen protector that came with the case is probably the best one I have ever used. It actually went on easily, (with no bubbles!) and doesn't even look like there is a screen cover on the phone. Before buying this case I bought a couple cheap ones, thinking they would at least last a while. I was wrong! They broke within a week and I was left with no protection on what to me feels like a very vulnerable phone with no case. I would ABSOLUTELY recommend this case. It is totally worth the extra money to get a case that will last. In fact I have dropped my phone several times now and there is not even a scratch on the case at all! Not many cases can say that. My only very minor complaint is that the silicon part of the case tends to attract some lint & dust, but I just wet my finger and it wipes off very easily.

While family is over for the holidays I've counted 3 ipads, 3 android tablets, and a 10 phones (android and iphone).The convenience this little savior brings can not be put to words.

Within 24 hours the clip had been bent off and the tip chewed off. Simple logic would say not to let the kids touch it, but I purchased the tablet to use as a family and I don't want fingerprints all over the screen. So I decided to get a multi-pack of screen pens and chose this brand based solely on price and quantity.What I got was a far superior stylus. The clips are thicker and are very difficult to bend up and the rubber tips are very secure. I have two that I allow my children to use and I do not see these getting destroyed anytime soon.

It does have a real carbon fiber sheet attached to the back that looks good (the case itself is not 100% carbon fiber, just the sheet on back). It is not plastic but looks to be real carbon fiber as advertised. It is glued on to the back of the case as with other cases made by Cygnett (the aluminum type comes to mind, it is glued to back also I believe). Will it stay glued on? Time will tell. I am very careful overall with my phones and I see no reason for the sheet of carbon fiber to come off. I would not send it through the washer though :) It does have lifetime guarantee it says but I would probably never use it because of the costs of shipping would most likely be more that the case. But they seem to want to stand behind their products.As for the overall look, it is thin and looks great on the phone. I have a white phone and the contrast looks great. It is very thin but at least now I feel more comfortable in holding my phone than without it. I put my old iphone 4s next to it in a similar case and the iphone 5 is a lot thinner. It hardly added any bulk to the phone. The material on the edges help to hold the phone easier.As for the glossy shine on back, I can see where this will get finger prints like the screen. But it is easy to wipe off. I am assuming the glossy coating is needed for the carbon fiber on the sheet. It does look very good when clean.So overall I am very happy with the looks and feel of this case. I do not keep my phone in my pants pocket or purse like my wife does. It stays on a table or a belt holder when I am out. I do not even use a screen protector with my phone (my 4s was used almost a year with no scratches on screen). The bottom and top of phone are not really covered so take into consideration how you will be carrying your phone and whether you need another type of case that covers more. But again, I am happy with this and glad I got it. Phone looks great with it on.I wanted to update this to mention the price. It is rather expensive ($29) but it is in range with what Best Buy and others sell cases for. My son just got a thin plastic type case there for $29 also. It does not look as good as this one (reason he got it there was a gift card). So while the price is high, it is normal for this type of case I think. There are always other choices that will be less. Just have to look around. I am still happy with the looks of this on my white iphone. But it would have been better if around $20 instead of $29.

So I went online with their support for nearly an hour, and they treated this as a software problem when it's really a hardware problem. They eventually offered to replace it but I'm out of the USA and won't be back for a while; I specifically bought this phone b/c it's unlocked so that I can use it overseas. So for now I'm stuck with a phone with a defective screen. When I asked them why I couldn't see my contacts that are on my SIM card from my old phone, they hung up on me. I then tried to move some music from my computer onto the phone. I moved it to the memory card I inserted in the phone, but when I went to play the music, the phone didn't know it was there. And when I plugged the phone back into my computer, the computer wouldn't recognize the phone. So I got to waste more time with someone who couldn't help me; after 15 minutes they gave me a phone number to call, so I got to wait on hold to talk to someone in southeast Asia. After 21 minutes on hold, they hung up on me, and when I called back I was told that their offices were closed. Seriously?

(Are you kidding me?!)Stay far away from Belkin!",2963,0 +2964,"Too many issues + +This is my first Android phone, so I was excited to have all these new features. My last phone was a Samsung Impression, which I really liked except for one or two quirks. But most people who like their phones seem to have a couple things they don't like about the phone, so those minor probs weren't a big deal.Note that since it's my first smart phone, I don't have much to compare it to as far as day-to-day use... though I have used my kids' and husband's smart phones on occasion.Pros:1. The plugs are all standard, yay! Micro usb for battery charger and standard headset plug for headphones. About time.2. Battery cover easy to remove. I had to really fight to remove the cover on my old phone.3. Camera takes nice pics. Didn't think of how handy it would be to have a nice camera on a phone.4. Call quality is usually quite good, speaker works well, and everything else seems pretty standard & intuitive.Cons:1. Response time is slow. After pressing a button on the touch screen, it takes a full second or two to react. Seems like no big deal, right? Well, when you are used to getting an immediate response you think ""must not have pressed hard enough"" so then you press again, and the cycle starts... by the time your finger actually hits the screen to press again, the screen has just switched so you've pressed something else. Then you try to press again, and here you are 3, 4, 5 touches later and you finally get to the screen or function you wanted to be at in the first place.2. Video camera. The quality is xlnt, but you can NOT zoom DURING recording! That is so strange. Even my old non-smart phone allowed me to zoom while recording. If you want to zoom in, you have to exit the recording, set the zoom where you want it, then begin again. The quality when zooming in is not so great, anyway. Since I can't use zoom, I use my husband's phone and record from that instead.3. The touch buttons on bottom (details, home, back, Genius) are ultra sensitive. I am constantly pressing the Genius button by accident. I don't like that button, don't use it, and wish there was a way to deactivate it, but from what I've researched you can't.4. This could be a defect in my particular phone: Sometimes, esp during a call or while dialing, the screen goes black (times out). I try to turn it back on, eg to end the call, and the instant my finger touches the screen it goes black again. I can do this repeatedly, say several times over about a 20 second period, and I cannot use the touch screen to hang up or do what I want. Eventually the screen stays lit and I can finally hang up the call. This has been frustrating, esp when I have accidentally pressed the button to call someone late at night when I was just trying to view their contact info, and I just can't end the call fast enough to not wake them up.5. As far as I know, you can't answer the phone any way except by sliding the screensaver via the touch screen. If your fingers have a little water on them (I'm talking just a little damp - I wouldn't use my phone with wet hands!), the touch screen won't respond. I've missed some important calls when my hands were not completely dry and I kept trying to slide the screen to answer. I like that with my old phone I could open the keyboard to turn off the screensaver/answer the phone.6. No arrow button on the keyboard so you can move your cursor around.I found this VERY helpful on my last phone & had noticed other phones (like my husband's old iPhone) didn't have that feature. When editing a text message it can be challenging to get your cursor in the right spot so you can make corrections; having arrow buttons would help a lot! When I can't get the cursor exactly where I want by tapping the screen several times, I end up just using the backspace button & clearing a lot to start over. I use my phone for texting more than anything else - lots of texts! - so this is a problem for me.We all got the new phones recently, and all of us have issues (the other phones with probs are LG Double Play and Samsung Galaxy S). The only one I like is my daughter's T-Mobile (HTC) MyTouch. I would have purchased that instead except I wanted a slide out keyboard for texting instead of just touch screen. The best part about her phone is the main buttons at bottom of screen (eg home, details, back) are not ""touch screen"" but actual buttons. Makes it hard to ""press"" by accident since you have to push down (lightly) rather than your finger just barely making contact with the screen, and the response to pressing those buttons on her phone is immediate.** UPDATE October 4, 2012: Problems with my phone have gotten worse; like I stated above, it may be a defective one. The delay after pressing buttons can be really long - up to a full minute sometimes. Then the cycle happens where you cant tell if it accepted your touch or not, so you keep pressing, then have to start all over when you end up in the wrong place. oy vey!The bigger issue, now, is when my screensaver is on. The way this phone is set up, there is a 911 emergency call button on the screen, allowing anyone to make an emergency call without having to enter the code to remove the screensaver. The problem is that the button gets easily pressed when it's in my purse or sitting next to someone or whatever. **What's the point in having a screensaver feature that doesn't LOCK the keypad? ** And since there is even more delay when pressing any button, I cannot end the 911 call before it goes through; I've had to apologize to the 911 operators numerous times in the past couple months. Last night another 911 call was about to go through (it shows the 911 numbers there, ready to ""send"") and I pressed the ""back"" button numerous times to try to stop the call, but it went through anyway. Weird.The phone has also started turning off for no reason, with full battery, when it's just sitting on the table next to me.Took one more star off my rating. Time for a new phone.",2964,0 +2965,"GREAT PHONE! EVEN INCLUDES A FRONT FACING CAMERA! + +This is an awesome little phone. It feels and looks very high class. I love it!

I also want to mention that this DOES HAVE A FRONT FACING CAMERA. I wanted to put that in the review because I didn't even notice it in the description when I was considering making a purchase. I found out about it after getting the phone and seeing a little pinhole above the screen to the right. I got curious and downloaded a mirror app from the OVI store. It worked! In the description it says ""(secondary camera for video calls on compatible networks; VGA)"" but that doesn't really stand out amongst everything else when your reading.

However, I wasn't able to find too many other options that would accept the extended battery (which is necessary with the EVO) and the protection my EVO requires. The case is rugged and very well built. Not very easy to get off once you have it on, but it does consist of three different cases. The clip is sturdy and has a great locking mechanism on the top. I was nervous after reading the clip turns the screen on. I have found, when the phone is in the clip, it does not activate the screen, but while putting the phone in the clip it does indeed turn the screen back on. I haven't found this to be a problem. I would agree the case is quite bulky, but after all, we are talking about a huge phone with a huge battery. What can we really expect? Therefore, I would highly recommend this product to my fellow EVO users. Just don't be stupid like me....buy the Seidio Extended battery. It comes with the battery cover you will need!

I imagine this is true for all but the smallest cases. 2) Even without a case, there is no locking mechanism for the stand and it tends to lean or sag if you don't get the phone in there just right. However, I didn't purchase this charger for the stand feature.I have no problem purchasing third party mobile phone accessories except when it comes to batteries.

I've decided to go for a ""hybrid"" as it is more affordable.I needed something that could connect to 2 devices, so I need not plug in and out my earphones all the time.

In hindsight this was helpful - I used 2 and have one to save for later if the protector gets too much wear. Take your time to apply the film correctly. I looked at protectors from several manufacturers and read reviews of horrible and great results. Going into my puchase, I decided that if I spent the time to lay it down correctly that it would look good.As a few have mentioned in reviews for products like this, the supplied ""scrapers"" that you use to squeegee out the bubbles can actually scratch the protector. The flat edges are not perfectly flat and the imperfections can scratch the film when you are working on stubborn bubbles. This is what happened in my first try. It was sad but I had backups to try again. I ended up using ~10 playing cards as my squeegee with success as the edges were much cleaner and more uniformly straight. I used those to get out the major bubbles and used a lint-free cloth (what I bought to wipe down my LCD screens with) wrapped around my finger to work out more stubborn bubbles. I could press down harder without fear of scratching the film.Despite my best efforts, there was one tiny scratch. However once the 24-hour drying time was up the film was crystal clear without blemishes, scratches, or bubbles. Though the screen was perfectly clean, there were ""smudges"" that also disappeared once the film had enough time to set. My phone is very new and the original surface did not have any scratches or blemishes so I cannot comment on what it can do for a well-loved phone.My fingers don't slide across the protector as easily as the original, glass surface. But this is a trade-off that I am willing to make. The plastic also seems to get dirt and oil smudges easier, but I know in the end that my phone will be cleaner this way.**EDIT**Over the next two days of use and being in my pocket, the film has wrinkled in several spots.

The pictures show this with no chrome button and in all black which is what I wanted. For the price, I can not go wrong but would have been nice to receive the one in the picture.",2999,0 +3000,"Great choice for kids + +I bought this phone for my kids to take with them for emergency purposes and it functions great in that capacity.",3000,0 +3001,"Watch your 7's six with geek-chic styling. + +This is a TPU case. There are many like it, but this one is mine. I had a similar Cruzerlite (Android Army) TPU case for my original Nexus 7, and I did not hesitate to purchase one for the 2013 model (in case you didn't know, the 2013 model is of different dimensions from its predecessor, thus the need for a new case.) It provides excellent coverage and protection for normal use, and the occasional drop (though I would never think of dropping my beloved Nexus 7.) I did drop my TPU-encased (Nexus) phone onto pavement one awful day, and it escaped the incident completely unscathed. The matte TPU material showed no visible signs of damage, either. What more can you ask for?I think TPU is the best material for case construction. It doesn't scratch (the device), it doesn't stretch, and it is easily and painlessly removed if necessary (though, I never find it necessary.) I also have a matte screen protector applied, and the case does not interfere with it in any way.I liked the Androidified Circuit design, though any of their designs should perform the task equally.

However being that I am petite, it sometimes slips down my arm and it cannot be made any tighter. I might suggest selling a small one and a larger one so that this won't happen.",3006,0 +3007,"Best Bluetooth Headset + +This Sony Bluetooth headset will not let you down, because it has so many different features and capabilities over most other headsets.First, it looks great, feels great, easy to use. It has 3 buttons on the bottom (previous song, play/pause and next song) it has a volume control at the top of the device, it has a power button at the right side along with a micro usb input to charge, a clip in the back to attach to clothing, and finally the microphone and a phone action button at the front. Granted, the volume touch bar on top can be a hassle to use sometimes since it has a weird sense or registry, but it isn't much of an issue, you can get used to it, plus you can have your own headphones with volume control if you wanted. The screen included shows you the track title (I have an HD2) and I can open up the music player by pressing the play button, or when I get a call the caller shows up on the screen as well, and I can go to voice command using the phone button. THE SOUND QUALITY IS FANTASTIC, it is no different than plugging them in the device.Second, the fact that you can use your own headphones is absolutely amazing, I had no problems using my own in-ear headphones. Also, the headphones included are very nice, they are not cheap, they are in-ear style and the provide excellent sound, the length of the wire is very short (no extension was included) as it was meant for you to attach it to your clothing near your neck. The downer in all of this is if you have a headphones with a microphone built-in you can not use, the headset simply uses it's own microphone, meaning the headset has to be close to your mouth to talk.Third, one cool feature in this product is it can be connected to 2 different devices at once. Meaning you can connect your ipod touch to it to listen to music (stereo of course) and have it connected to your phone as well. When you are listening to music and a call comes in, the music pauses and it starts ringing in your ear and you can click the phone button on the device to take it or hold it to ignore it. The buttons have many different operations other than next song... etc for example, while in call, you can mute the microphone by holding the play/pause button. The device also has an fm radio tuner, you can ditch all your electronics and just use it as a radio, the quality is great but I feel the range is not the best and seeking stations can be a little of a hassle because it takes a couple of seconds to do so.Forth, another great feature worth mentioning is the headset can store 3 music devices and phone devices. Currently all my 3 slots are used for my phone (music/phone), my laptop (music in class/skype), and my ps3 (chat)fifth, the battery life is nothing short of amazing, has a rated 11h talk time and a 8.5h stereo listening time with a whopping 520h standby time which is about 21 days. These numbers felt exaggerated at first, but after my usage I can believe them. One day, I played music from my HD2 (it shows the music title) for about 6 hours with occasional calls that total 30 mins. Then I went home and spent 5 hours playing my ps3 and using the Sony headset. At the end of that, it still said I had half full battery life. Pretty impressive.Lastly, the great uses of this. While working out, I hated to keep having my phone in my hand while jogging or lifting weights. I hated having my Zune 120 on my arm, it's very uncomfortable. With this headset, you can keep your phone at a safe distance and have this tiny device connected to your shirt or shorts. I use this even at home when I sleep, it is much better than getting tangled up with the phone.Over all I say this is the very best you can get, the price is extremely reasonable for a device that can do so much with fantastic styling and sound quality.",3007,0 +3008,"Highly recommend! + +Highly recommend it!

I use them every day, and while the sound is mediocre, I love the freedom and versatility of those headsets.I was very pleased with this HBS 730 headset when I first got it. The sound is MUCH better than the HBS 700. HOWEVER, the connection cuts out at all sorts of random times when my phone moves around in my pocket, sometimes when my hand is over the phone, or just when i am walking around- all with the phone less than a yard away from the headset. This is just abysmal performance. The sound quality is great, and if you can put up with it cutting out as you move around, then it may be ok for you, but I find this unacceptable.2013-April-12th edit:Do not buy these unless you are sure your device has the Apt-X technology. I just upgraded my phone to a Samsung Note 2, purchased these again, and they work like a dream.

I found out after you placed your order you could request to get it jail broke which was to late for me. Also some people complained about not being able to track their package after my order was shipped I just emailed them asking for a tracking # and received my # within the hour and it only took 13 days to receive my phone. Would've been 5 stars if the I9977 came in orange. To HD Design thanks for being so quick to respond to my emails I would definitely buy more products from here.",3014,0 +3015,"Simple, Easy, and Effective + +This item features a simple, easy-to-use, user interface: on/off switch, almost 2 in. diameter volume wheel, 1.25 in. button, and a small LED indicator light. The key to using this user interface is to observe the state of the indicator light (e.g., flashing blue vs. solid blue light), and understand the different ways of using the button (tap, double tap, press [about 1 sec.], and press and hold [about 5 sec.]). All this is explained in the User Manual. The important thing is to understand that there is only a small subset of these actions needed for everyday use. In particular, I have found that in order to put my phone into voice-command mode, I simply hold in the Jabra SP200's button until I hear a beep and then release it (this is equivalent to a ""press"" of the button), so I don't need to try to count out one second. Before I realized this, I was not sure if I was doing a ""tap"" or a ""press"". As you practice using the Jabra SP200, you will find the audio prompts (beep tones) very useful.The Jabra SP200 is a perfect match to a phone that already natively supports voice-command mode (such as my Motorola MOTO W755). You can use the SP200 to put your phone into voice-command mode without touching the phone, as discussed above. Then the phone prompts (thru the Jabra speaker), ""Please say a command"". Then you can say (using the Jabra mic), ""Call Pat Johnson home"" and the phone will respond (thru the Jabra speaker), ""Calling Pat Johnson home"" and make the call. Since you are using the native voice recognition capabilities of your own cell phone, you do not need to upload your contact list to the Jabra, you do not need a phone that supports PBAP (phone book access profile) and the Jabra doesn't need to duplicate the voice recognition functionality that already exits in your phone. My recommendation, however, is to perform your cell phone's voice recognition training through the Jabra SP200, possibly while sitting inside your non-moving vehicle with the Jabra SP200 mounted on the visor, for best results.The connectivity range between your cell phone and the Jabra SP200 can be quite good. I have noticed that I can park in the parking lot and enter a store and sometimes still be connected to the Jabra SP200. Of course, if a call comes in at this time, it would go to the Jabra out in your car, and not to your cell phone on your person. To avoid this, I just use my cell phone's menu to drop the connection to the Jabra before exiting the vehicle, and when I return, I just tap the Jabra's big button to restore the connection while listening for the confirmatory beep sound.Sound quality is very good to excellent when listening to a call in a moving vehicle, and can be good to very good at the recipient's end of the call depending on the level of background noise in the vehicle (depending on speed, road conditions, etc.). I might mention that I am hearing-impaired, yet have no trouble hearing and understanding the Jabra SP200. In fact, it sounds much better than my cell phone itself.If you understand the specific handsfree functionality you need, pair the Jabra SP200 with the right phone, and practice until using your phone and the Jabra SP200 together becomes second nature, you can't go wrong. Highly recommended!",3015,0 +3016,"Nice little phone! + +I have had the Pursuit II for alittle over 24 hours now. I have to say that I am quite pleased with the phone. When I unpacked it I did notice however, that there is no user manual enclosed. Only the quick start guide and me being the electronic nerd that I am, I like to read the manual to make sure I'm not missing any cool little programs or quirks the phone might have. However, the Pantech website now has a downloadable user manual there and I printed it off to have :)When I finally got it charged and activated, I was pleasantly surprised at the actual size of the screen! It is quite large for such a small phone. The color quality of it is also very vibrant.I really like how responsive the touchscreen is. However, I thought I could use a stylus, but it won't read the touch of the stylus. But that's ok, just thought I would mention it.I've made a couple calls with it so far and the sound quality is good. No static or dropped calls either.I mostly text and I was worried the keys would be too small. I upgraded from the LG Xenon and it had a wider keyboard. The only thing I miss about the old phone keyboard is that it had arrow keys. However, since the Pursuit II is a touchscreen, I can just touch where i need to be and correct any misspellings. The one thing that I don't care for...well, right now till I get more used to the phone, is the fact that when I type a text and get ready to send it. I have to hit reply, then tap the box to type, then click ok, then hit send. Thats too many steps, but I'm sure I will get used to it. Then when deleting messages, you touch delete, then you have to pick the ones you want to delete even though you are already there. It's gets a bit monotonous, but I'm sure I will get used to it.I love the customizable favorite screens. The menu is very easy to get around in.I used the memory card from my other phone and I had no problems transfering the pics, videos or music.All in all I really like this phone. It's durable, makes great calls, easy to navigate around on and would make a great phone for a teen or adult!If any little quirks pop up while I have it, I will make sure to update my review! Enjoy!",3016,0 +3017,"Looked great, until I used my TPM case with it + +I ordered this product (two of them, actually), because it was the only Galaxy S III screen protector I could find that had custom cutouts for the home button, front facing camera, etc., where the cutout was only for the home button and not below it, only a circle for the front facing camera and not the whole area around it, etc.I followed the instructions exactly, installation was easy, and I waited 24 hours for it to set. Looked great, still had a slick feel on the cover, no bubbles, edges seemed sealed up great, etc.Put my TPM case on the phone, taking care when I put it on so as not to lift up the edges. Looked great. Set it on my desk while I did other things.About 30 minutes later, grabbed my phone, and saw that the edges of the protector were all coming up.On my old phone, I had used a Clearfreak (now Clear Guard) wet-apply screen protector with a TPM case and never had this problem. Clear Guard does not yet have a protector for the S III.I am waiting for a Seidio Surface case and will apply my second Skinomi protector and see how it goes. As of right now, I'm not too thrilled with Skinomi. The edges came up so easily and quickly on my phone from the TPM that I have a hard time believing that the edges would withstand rubbing against coins, keys, wallets, your pocket, etc.It would be nice if some people who have lived with their protector for a week/month or more, and others who may have used a TPM or other case would post back and let everyone know how their protector has held up with normal use.

I've had my One for a couple months now and I've got a list of plusses and a couple minuses but on the balance this is the best phone I've ever owned. Easily a 5/5.Pros:+ Great looking industrial design. Admittedly, appreciation of beauty can be a very subjective thing, but I think it's hard to argue against this being a great looking product. Plus, the aluminum body is solid and feels very well constructed.+ Excellent camera. Don't be fooled by numbers. The main benefits of this camera are its speed and low light performance. Ever been annoyed by that second delay when taking a picture, especially when the camera needs to use the flash? Ever been annoyed by the fact that it needs to flash at all in conditions with moderate but not extremely low light? Never worry about that again. For the vast majority of uses that people use digital images in everyday life (posting on FB, 4 x 6"" prints, looking at on your phone screen) 4 megapixels is actually MORE than is needed. Unless you're trying to take professional quality shots (which you would likely do with a dedicated camera), you'll be very happy with the results here.+ Great speakers. They aren't as loud as a boom box (nor really even close), but the stereo sound is the best you can get out of a phone today, period (followed by a period here). I really love showing people youtube vids on this phone. It's impressive and is one of the best selling points of the phone. Also, if you're laying in bed and want to watch some netflix or listen to music- it's great.Cons:- Overflow buttons (the vertical ...) take up valuable screen real estate and can be distracting. This is due to the One's lack of a menu button. This will be resolved in a future sense update, allowing a long press of the home button to summon a menu, but for now it's pretty annoying.- Random ""Sim card not detected"" error messages. Best I can see after an hour's research- this is a common problem in this and other HTC phones and amounts to a design flaw in the sim tray mechanism once the sim is fully inserted. There's probably a fraction of a millimeter extra space in there which causes the card to not register sometimes after normal phone use jostles it minutely. Easily fixed by placing a small centimeter square bit of packing tape on the top side of your sim card (not the circuit side), but still hard to overlook. This is something that I imagine could be easily rectified on the production side. I shouldn't need to put a tape shim in there for it to function properly, but I did and it worked.- Battery life is average. If I use it normally (moderately heavy use over the course of the day) it will make it through work and a couple hours after I get home. It's not terrible but not as good as a Razr Maxx or the Galaxy S4. It's much better than the phone I previously had, but I still think it's worth pointing out that it could be better.- Battery is fixed (ie not removeable). This is a con for some people, but I don't see a problem with it. I'll probably have this phone for a year and replace it before the battery suffers significant life loss, so doesn't matter to me.Overall this is the best cell phone currently on the market in my opinion. It feels more solid and less gimmicky than the S4. I highly recommend it.",3030,0 +3031,"Too bulky + +The case is a real leather but it is too bulky.

It's pretty close to invisible, but it's visible enough to make you look at the screen and think ""This is pretty good, but man the screen looks AMAZING without it."" It also adds a slight ""layer"" to the screen, making the new miminal distance between the screen and the glass lose the ""sitting right in front of you"" feeling and replaces it with a depth that feels like the old screen.Photos, videos, everything that had that WOW! look still look very good, but they lose enough of that POP to make me think the whole trip, ""man I can't wait to see what my videos/photos of the trip look like when I get this thing off.""Also the smooth, velvet feel off the screen goes totally away and is replaced with a tacky feel that actually screws up my games of N.O.V.A.

Snap your back cover back on and you are all done. Now you can use your Galaxy S4 with any Qi enable pad. I use it with actually two different brands since I have one at work and one at home.Here are the two Qi pads I use:Black QI Wireless Charger pad with Receiver for SAMSUNG Galaxy S4Samsung Galaxy S4 Wireless S Charger Kit (inductive type) - Wireless Charging White Cover & Pad(This is the one that comes with the Qi back cover that added too much bulk)What is truly amazing is that you can use any case and it will still charge. I use theGoospery Fancy Diary Cover Case for Samsung Galaxy S4and theOtterBox 77-27765 Defender Series Case for Samsung Galaxy S4which are both quite thick, and they both make a very good contact as soon as I place them on the pad. The phone will display a message stating ""You have placed the device within range. Now charging wirelessly."" The battery icon also shows the charging symbol.Keep in mind that using wireless charging instead of the direct micro USB method is slower. I use one pad on my nightstand to charge my phone overnight while i sleep, and the other I use as needed while at work. It sits on my desk and I am able to visibly see my phone if I get a call or text message.",3037,0 +3038,"The Most Helpful Review (I hope) :) + +Yes, this is an old full-size SIM from T-Mobile, not a micro SIM, but... it's cut perfectly to fit into the tray of my iPhone 4.The ""micro SIM"" arrived non-activated. I called the number and answered a few questions. The most personal question was my birthdate (honors system at that). I picked an area code and bing! It's activated.The only negative reviews I've seen on here are summed up into 2 categories:1 -- people who don't have an unlocked phone (therefore can't use this product, no matter where they purchase it)2 -- people who seem to dislike the fact that it's not a ""factory cut"" microSIM. I can't tell but it sure looks like it was cut with a die. It's absolutely precise.So addressing #1:You HAVE TO get AT&T; / T-Mobile, or whoever else to unlock your phone if you're on a contract. Your phone 99% likely comes locked down to the network from which you bought it (hence the terms of the contract). This SIM won't work just by plugging it in if your phone is lockedBUT -- if you unlock it, it will! Mine did on the first try.Addressing #2:This product is exactly what I need and it works 100%. I really don't care if someone cut an old SIM card to make it into a micro SIM. The technology is literally the same. They just made the new phones smaller and the ""micro"" standard was born out of necessity. You will touch this card exactly ONCE... and once it's in the phone, it fits perfectly and works just as if it was factory cut.I went through the steps to unlock my phone and now I have an unlocked T-Mobile iPhone 4.

Especially after the included-in-the-box $20 rebate, this headset is a winner.(Please refer to the pics I added)Most of this review will be a comparison to the Samsung WEP200.PROS and Neutral:-Battery life, talk time, fidelity are all pretty OK, on my Nokia 6126. I can't give you specific times/durations, but it's about the same as my WEP200. It doesn't seem as if there is noise cancellation, but the volume gets loud enough for pretty much all uses. There are no complaints from the other party either - In general, compared to all the headsets I've used, I would give it a A- for fidelity/clarity.-It seems to be slightly lighter than the WEP200 in my ear, but it could just feel that way since some of the weight is on my ear due to the loop.-There are 3 (S.M,L) ear adaptors for different size ears, and one other ear ""adaptor"" that was already attached to the headset - I'm not sure what this is for. The instructions did not mention the use of this at all. The 3 adaptors have a small central hole and 3 holes in its periphery. The one ""adaptor"" has one big hole in the middle only. I tried putting the Large on top of the ""adaptor"" and this seems to kind of work, but will fall out. The rubber ear adaptors are thin on the outer ring portion, and are comfortable.-The headset will stay sync'ed to my phone even when it's charging. With my WEP200, it would un-sync when I put it in the charger. This also means (and it says so in the manual) that you can use the headset while it's charging. (This, to me, was kind of surprising, since most peripherals don't recommend usage while charging)-The AC adapter is the same as the one for the WEP200, except that the WEP200 also needs the little charging box that the AC adapter will plug into.CONS:-The earloop is a thin piece of plastic, and is not adjustable. It does not latch on to the earpiece very firmly, so it can fall out pretty easily. It gets a bit annoying when you try to put on the earpiece and it gets dislodged from the grooves that hold it in place. Mine hasn't broken, but I don't stress the material at all either, so....-There are 6 skins included, but unlike the Jabra headsets that use true inserts underneath a transparent plastic cover, these are stickers.-The LED light that indicates status is located on the side, and not very easily visible. This is kind of important to me to be able to check the status at a glance.So it's perfectly serviceable, especially for its price.",3048,0 +3049,"Better and easier than expected + +I bought this with hesitation after reading the reviews. But it was worth the risk. This shield is great! It's thicker and seems more durable that the others I have tried. And installation was EASY. Just follow the directions (make sure your hands are wet witht the solution). I had this shield on within about 60 seconds, smooth and bubble-free. It has a very clear surface and a great feel to it.It may be a little on the expensive side, but its very thick and if it prevents scratches, then it's $15 well spent. Also, it comes with a money back guarantee, and if it ever gets scratched, it says they'll replace it for life.",3049,0 +3050,"I wouldn't allow releasing such a half-way developed product + +I've now used my N97 for 2.5 months or so. Even though the device has already lived through two important firmware updates, it has still got some major bugs and inconsistencies in usability, stability and performance. Even after the updates, I'm surprised how badly and half-way the software is developed and designed, and how this ultimately cracks all the promising value from many intendedly great features that cannot be found anywhere else in a single unit.Before buying my N97, I had an iPhone for two weeks. I returned it because of some major feature limitations, including the lack of multitasking & file system, among others. I loved iPhone's user interface and the ""it-just-works"" fluency in most dimensions. Now I regret my decision.So what's wrong with the N97 concretely? First, for a great user experience, fluent and reliable operation is an imperative. The N97 doesn't have this and probably never will - even after several firmware updates. The phone is incredibly slow, especially when multiple apps are open. Some apps are just slow regardless of how many apps you have open, including the camera as well as active notes. This majorly distracts the use of the device and usually generates frustration. Many of the applications are also prone to jamming. This requires constant restarting of the device -- which is slow and consumers the battery considerably. Perhaps related, the memory needed for applications to run is incredibly small. Often you have to close programs before doing something.Second, several services that many use frequently, such as Skype, Gmail, Facebook, YouTube, PDF reader, have either badly designed apps for N97, or no apps at all (e.g. YouTube, Skype). Comparing to my iPhone experince, there is generally a night-and-day difference. Third, there's a number of rather stupid usability design flaws such as: music doesn't stop after unplugging earphones but instead activates speakers (I've had several humiliating experiences with this); menu structures of most apps are overly complicated; different sets of special characters are available through keyboard vs. on-screen keypad (sometimes you have to switch to the other to get them); cannot adjust wakeup beep volume, cannot change to any international language (like iPhone), and many others. Small things, but add to a larger reservoir of dysfunctionality.Fourth, even though the physical and technical features of the device have been praised, they're not without problems either: camera cover scratches the lens, camera flash distorts the picture on other side because it's too close to the lens; GPS is incredibly inaccurate and slow in updating the location -- much more so than in earlier Nokia phones I've had; the quality of voice is very bad -- many of my friends keep constantly complaining about the quality of voice calls from me; the battery life is poor -- in normal use I have to charge every night, sometimes even more often; there's difficulties in connecting via USB to Ovi Player on PC (phone not recognized by the PC software).To sum up, in everyday use the Nokia N97 involves a lot of waiting, restarting both apps and the phone, charging, solving all kinds of problems, as well as unintuitive and missing functionalities. It's not fluent. Rather, it's frustrating.So is there anything good? Yes, there are a number of - intendedly, at least - great features. Cameara with excellent 5 megapixel accuracy, lots of mass memory (though not for running apps), multitasking, the widget-based home screen, coverage of all thinkable network technology, gps and maps with navigation, music store & manager, FM transmitter, software market, etc. Precisely because of these intendedly great features I'm giving two stars instead of just one. However, all these potentially great features are now suppressed under the major design flaws in and half-way developed user interface and software.With this product, Nokia may be able to generate some sales with a relatively high price. But the price is not based on the value of the product. Rather, it is based on Nokia's brand as the largest and most innovative mobile phone manufacturer.

The dimple on the back of the phone is repeated in the case and is a nice feature. The buttons on the side are protected with movable "buttons" molded in to the case. The buttons move normally and the appearance and function are seamless; a little hard to describe really but nice.

After reading positive reviews about ArmorSuit products, I ordered this. Watch their YouTube video on shield installation. What's nice about this carbon set is that only the front screen requires the liquid spray. Trust me, you'll be glad you get to use the spray! Set aside 30 mins of uninterrupted time. You'll use the spray to align the front side. Squeegee out the bubbles. You'll still see some non-bubble blemishes, but it's just liquid that will dissipate overnight. I recommend installing before going to bed. You'll be looking at it right after installation thinking some areas are distracting, but they'll be gone by morning. The carbon back and side pieces do not require the liquid to apply. Great! If you start to align and you're off kilter,remove and reapply. But you'll want to get it right in one or two tries. Make sure you spend a good amount of time figuring out which carbon strips go where. Believe me, study the side strips and where they go before removing from the adhesive sheet! You don't want to blow it. In the end, the angled adges of the iPhone aren't covered, but 95+% of the phone will be and that seems just fine. The screen is that slightly soft ""self healing"" type. At an angle when off, you'll see grooves here and there. But when looking at the lit display, you won't notice it. No problem! for less than $15, what have you got to lose in trying it out!

I've also tried the brush tipped nomad and some other cheaper brush tip ones. Those have great smoothness however sometimes lack the necessary precision. This was the stylus I was looking for. Smooth motion, durability, and better precision than the brush. I found that the motion is not as smooth as the rubber tipped or the brush but it is only a difference of degree. The reason I gave this five stars is because it does not wear out and stick. The tip looks to be wire mesh. I was a little worried about it potentially scratching like steel wool, but that hasn't happened. It's just a stylus you can use every day and not have to replace frequently.I will note that I'm not picky about size and weight.

I dropped it on concrete and it dinged up the sides, but I never worried about it scratching. After a hard 9 months with that phone, there were a few scratches on the screen and the sides were dinged up.The new M8 is a sleeker, seemingly more delicate phone. It's 90% metal as opposed to the 70% metal of the M7, yet it feels like you could easily break it if you drop it. Knowing how I treat my phones, I opted for a case this time.I was skeptical about liking this case. I hate big, bulky cases, and thought this would be too big. As it turns out, it's just right.It's a two part case. There's a silicone slip on sleeve that goes on first, then a hard plastic shell to keep it on. It's got cutouts for the top button so you can still use the IR blaster, adds volume rockers, and has a ""flip open"" slot for the charging/headphone ports. At first I didn't like the fact that I had to flip open the slot to charge the phone, but now I'm used to it and it keeps it protected against dust/lint in my pockets, which is nice.Keep in mind - when putting the hard plastic shell over the soft vinyl, the case didn't quite fit at first. Pull the charging flap down (and out), and then everything fits perfectly.The case overall is very nice. The hard plastic is a bit slippery, but nowhere near as slippery as the phone is without a case. The phone is actually easier to hold with this case on it, and it offers full protection. I feel confident that if I drop the phone in any position, it will be 100% protected.I was skeptical about the front of the case taking up too much of the screen real estate, but it doesn't. You can still type/swype just as easy with the case on it, and it's easier to hold while doing so.I have the black case and the gunmetal phone, which looks sharp. The case is 100% black. My wife has the white case, which has a grey silicone slip on it. The white stays white and does not stain, which is nice.The case weighs 55 grams (2 ounces), and the phone weighs 160 grams. So it definitely makes it heavier - keep that in mind.Overall this case surprised me. It adds weight and a bulk to an already big phone, definitely making it less portable. This is the tradeoff, and you have to decide if it's worth it to you for protection or not. But it offers essential protection for a $700 phone, which is worth it for the sacrifice of increased bulkiness.",3067,0 +3068,"A miniature walkman + +I am returning this midget sized unlocked cellphone.

This isn't a serious problem as others make it out to be, but it can get a little annoying that the case isn't tight together, but instead has a little wiggle room between the two pieces (one top piece and one bottom piece that connect in the middle). I have taken the case off and on about 50 or 60 times and it still makes a tight enough connection to hold the two pieces together just fine. The ease of taking this case off is a plus in my mind.

When I purchased the new iPad 3, I realized that after syncing my existing iPhoto from my Macbook, the amount of storage used was vastly increased. Because of the retina display, iPhoto increased the size of the transfer to take advantage of the new resolution. I was glad I got the 64 GB version, but realized I would need to better manage my photo storage on the iPad. Should I only carry the most recent photos or some other method of selecting which photos to sync?As a typical hoarder (collector), I found another option. I had recently read about a new product called AirStash+, a solution waiting for a problem. This device does what Apple denies you the ability to do..... increase storage on IOS Devices and copy items both ways!!!It used to be available without a SD card for $99, but the improved version is now available with an 8 GB card for $140 on Amazon. (16GB also available)This small rechargeable battery device about the size of a pack of gum creates a wifi network that shares everything on a SD card with any b/g/n wifi capable device 802.11 using html browsers. SD and SDHC cards(FAT formatted) up to 32GB can be used. SDXC cards are currently supported when formatted in FAT32 format. These cards range from 64GB to 2TB.No need to jailbreak iPhone or iPad to read or write to the inserted SD card. The IOS app enables read and write as well as allowing you to watch movies, view jpeg files, play mp3s, mp4s, open pdfs, iWork files (Numbers, Pages, Keynote) without skipping a beat! And up to 8 people can use the Airstash+ at same time!

I used to have a motorola rokr slider (that I've since recycled) and used tmobile's to go prepaid service. This is my first experience w/ tracfone (a mexican company)... so far so good. For my low usage needs prepaid is the best option. I purchased this thru shop cell deals w/ the 1200 minutes(1yr). I was able to activate it & get my new local number with-in a few minutes using the tracfone's webpage. (For the first use it does say to charge it for 5 hrs) The user manual is only available online in pdf format. I'd recommend taking a few minutes and familiarize yourself w/ its features-- especially where the right soft keys aka ""browser"" buttons are located (on the front upper right and on right side of keyboard), be careful to avoid hitting those by accident. I haven't had issues w/ that yet personally, but have read others have. It sucks samsung didn't include a way to disable that feature in the settings since this is a prepaid phone and unintentional browser use could eat precious minutes.The good: For me the phone's low cost, slide out keyboard, and tracfone's low cost for talk & text when considering the ""triple minutes for life"" of the phone were the selling points. I didn't add a micro sd card b/c I don't plan on using it for pictures/video, internet, or music. I have a digital camera, computer, and AAC player that I prefer to use for those purposes. I happen to really like Samsung as a brand, but I dont work for them. Don't expect or compare it to what the latest & greatest smart phones do, but then again you won't have a 100$ monthly bill or 2 yr. contract either :)The bad: I had to deduct 1 star b/c of the following: it lacks a mini plug for headphones, doesn't include a usb transfer cable, a wired headset or coiled car charger, a user manual, a starter 512MB or 1GB sd card, relatively low camera resolution (2MP), and lacks the ability to shut off the browser feature. The micro sd card slot also isn't in a user friendly side slot, but rather in a hard to get to spot hidden inside the battery cover. The plastic back cover, small charging door piece, and wall charger feels really cheap and may break easily so use care.

Even though the hd2 is widely known as one of the best and most customizable windows phones... it doesn't come without a few problems. First of all, you have to make sure your ROM is up to date (which t-mobile has on their site). When it first came out in the U.S. it was buggy. Even after having an updated ROM... I had to download 3rd party software to fix the call quality, the 3g came on all by itself after switching it off so I had to find software to stop that, I downloaded a more accurate battery life indicator, and I also found software to switch the on screen unlock slider to the bottom of the screen instead of the top. I didn't know it had all these little annoyances until after I bought it. But like I said... it's a highly customizable phone. All the software fixes from the net were free too. So, even though it was a pain at first...with a few little tweaks, it's actually a great phone. I did have to buy an HTC HD2 brand extended battery from ebay (with the metal kick stand in the back) because the original battery didn't last long (maybe 2 days with moderate use). I am not a really heavy user on my phone so I can get about 4 or 5 days on one charge with moderate to mid range use on the extended battery. Do not get a cheap no name extended battery, they do not tell you the accurate battery life. At some point, you have to take it out and put it back in to reboot your phone so you can get the other 50% battery life to work. The 3g is shut off unless I need to use it, and I make sure the task manager is clear of all programs running in the back ground. After all that, was it worth my time and money? Yes. I do really like this phone. One of the best I've owned. It was actually fun customizing it since I'm such a tech geek.

This is one of those that they leave out many specifics just so the things they do say sound like there are no disadvantages.1) The iomega website says in their product tour that this backs up photos, videos, and contacts. I can assure you and support rep agreed this does not back up videos that you took with your iphone on your camera roll. It only backs up photos, and contacts. My videos are as important, maybe more important than my photos at times. This product doesn't think so, and they're not clear about it.2) The backup is almost as slow as a dial-up modem. The transfer from the camera roll to the SD card is 7KB/s. YES SEVEN KILOBYTES PER SECOND. Just look at your camera roll, minus the videos, and average 1.5MB per 5MP photo, calculate about 3.5minutes per photo, then see how long your backup would take. Mine is roughly 65 hours... HAHAHAHAHA 65HOURS??? RU SERIOUS!3) If you have a lot of photos, this one is a doosey as well: When you RESTORE to a new iphone you MUST restore the ENTIRE album in one sitting. Meaning if you have a lot of photos (which is why you're backing up in the first place) you must leave your phone there (in my case) for 65 hours straight while it restores... Yes, restore is as slow as backup, but you don't have the luxury of doing it only at night while you sleep. You'd better turn your phone on airplane mode or else a phone call will destroy your hard work!4) Once you've purchased their product, tried to use it, realized it backs up as slowly as you used to connect online over your dial-up modem and now want to return the device, guess what, you have no way of erasing the SD card. Some might not care, other may have previously purchased an SD card reader, but this product doesn't come with one and there is no way in the iOS software to erase a backup. You are now forced to find a friend with a reader or return your device to some unknown shady characters who will sort through your contacts prank calling your mother, and posting your camera roll (minus videos) to 4chan!This product is going right back to iomega.

It really is the more important factor in purchasing a headset. One phrase sums it up: people have different ears... this means that all clip on headsets can either be the best or worse or possibily in between... all motorola over the ear design flaps over my ear and i feel it's falling off, but apparently it's fine on lots people othereise product recall? so the best solution is to try them on before you make your purchase online inorder to avoid the return over snail mail problem. what i realized is that the ""in ear"" design of Plantronics along with the three different size of gel insert has the best chance of fitting most ears, of course there are other companies with this design, such as sony, jabra...etc. my 640 is very comfortable, however many people does not like the in ear design, because you do feel it more compare to the over the ear design. again, it's relative, and your milage may vary. i choose to wear mine without the ear hook, it stays in my ear nicely, i do notice it sometimes but it's not heavy at all.last but not least, please don't read EVERY review on amazon, that's what i did and it didn't help me much because one review would give it 10stars and other would wish there was a -10, what really helped me is to simply try on the headset. for example if a friend has it, that's great.. or maybe a store. must sales person would be happy to let you try them on. not best buy tho, they lock them up in a nice perfectly transparent plastic box... =)ok thanks for being so very parient, now it's the review for this particular headset... i will just ignore facts like looks etc since people have different taste, i promise you it look exactly like the picturea above, fair enough? =)sound qualityincoming = i am a average teenager owning a ipod for about a year, so my hearing is definitly not the BEST. Due to the in ear design however, this headset does block out lots noises, and i can hear my conversations fine, in doors (definitly), out doors(with no problem), and while driving.(with windows up of course) For those of you owning a RAZR, it is louder than the standard audio of RAZR,(not speaker phone) For me that's good enough. what i have realized looking at many reviews complaining about audio is that can you really hear your phone with the phone speaker going 80mph with window down in a car to begin with? of couse lot of indoor reviews too, but those are mostly over the ear design.outgoing call-very good quality, people do not realize that i am on a headset, as many reviews have pointed out. however it is a bit too sensive and when i close my car door etc, people on the other end can hear the noise probably more so than the RAZR H3 headset i had. i even got some complaints that i am too loud??? O_O that's really a first... just a point of reference, with the RAZR H3 Bluetooth headset, i did have to repeat sometimes even in my room. with plantronics it's all clear.Connection, pairing etc-connected to my RAZR no problem, easy to use, however a important point is that i can not speak for all the phones out there, for example, a treo... but there are lots of reviews regarding treo, so there you go. no complaints about about battery, quick charging etc... again, no matter which headset you end up getting, the max as for right now is about 10hours talk, technically...comfortbasically the theme of this review, what works for me might not work for you, but you do have a better bet with this particular design than the over the ear once. you can wear without the earhook, which eliminates many potential problems, with the trade off of security. it does stay in my ear perfectly fine tho.in conclusion, Plantronic 640, or in ear design provides a much better incoming call volume and comfort. outgoing call plantronic 640 is great, unless you are worried about backgroud noise etc(however phone mic has backgroud noise, so does all headsets). It is not excessive, but it's there.(maybe the plantronic 645 with DSP technology would reduce the backgroud noise, it should show up on your amazon search)Finally, everything is relative. it really depends on what you want. there are cheaper headsets out there(lots motorola once works just fine) but if you want the extra performance and comfort over all, this is the one to get. or you can wait a bit until they get cheaper and more importantly perfect the bluetooth technology... i still think it's rediculous to make 4 transactions in order to find the one that I like...",3092,0 +3093,"Lovely skin for my new iPhone, great design + +I bought this skin to protect my iPhone when I set it down on hard surfaces. It won't do much to protect it against a fall, but it does help improve the grippiness of the glass and guards against scratches when I put it down on a hard surface. I love the design, it just looks interesting and classy. I also like that it helps my (rather expensive) phone not scream ""IPHONE!"" when people look at it briefly anymore.Now for some practical reviews: putting on the skin was a little tricky. Lining it up perfectly was a bit of a chore, I probably removed it and replaced it five or six times. However, the skin didn't lose stickiness through all this, so if you're a bit obsessive (like me), don't worry about it not staying put after you've finally gotten it attached. The edge without the buttons is a little hard to get even with the edge with the buttons on the sides, but if you're careful, you can eyeball it pretty well. MAKE SURE you line up the top part of the front skin perfectly, or it'll impact either the camera or the light sensor (both Bad Things tohave happen). Other than that, I love my skin! Also note, you can keep the packaging it came in, remove it, put it back, and it'll still be good if you ever want to change the look of your iPhone.",3093,0 +3094,"Straight Talk + +The reason that these are selling so high is that straight talk is no longer allowed to sell these AT&T SIM cards hints they are out of stock Walmart and straight talk will never carry them again so get them while you can still find them.

(That's one advantage owning an Iphone over an Android phone - huge selection). A couple of reviewers have indicated this case does not fit the AT&T; version because it would cover the top noise cancelling mic. The version I received as of Oct 18, 2011 - the maker of the case has updated their case by added an extra hole for the noise cancelling mic tailored to the AT&T; version.As many reviewers (from other sites) indicated, this is a very thin case, it's not sticky, and it looks great. It will protect it from daily use, such as putting it down on tables, pocket, etc... but I don't think it has much protection from high falls. I am fairly careful - dropped my Iphone only once during a 2 year period use... so that doesn't concern me as much. I prefer beauty over bulkiness.I love the details, which has lines and design that conforms to the original design of the phone. It makes it look unique and stylist compare to other cheap silcone/TPU cases. I purchase the Aqua Black for myself (which is transparent, I am able to see the Samsung Galaxy S ii logo through the case) and a white one (solid color) for my wife, both looks great... but I prefer Aqua Black.FYI: There are two extra pre-cut opening designed for the International version, so it seems out of place for the AT&T; version, but it's barely noticable. I would give this case 4 1/2 stars because of it, but I round it up because there aren't much choice for the AT&T; version, so I highly recommend this case if you're in my situation.",3097,0 +3098,"NO VOICE COMMAND FUNCTION + +This product is sub-par at best.

So that sucked. Anyway don't waste your time.",3102,1 +3103,"Very Good, but Could be Better + +I did a lot of searching for the best, most high-quality wallet case for the iPhone 5 that I could find. My search stopped at the Bear Motion case. It's hard to beat a genuine lambskin phone case for $20, but while it sounds like a steal, you are sacrificing some quality.For starters, the clip is magnetic. A metal button would have been more elegant and would hold up longer. The magnetic snap visibly wears down the material. Opened up, the case is stunning on the left-side. Smooth skin makes it very comfortable to hold in the hand. It would have been better to to leave one slot visible with some clear plastic (for IDs) and perhaps an extra slot (comes with 2). I managed to fit the essentials in the compartments, but the flawed design results in my card tops hitting the phone screen when the case is closed, which is not ideal. I'll have to add a screen protector to the phone now for this reason alone.The inside-right of the case is another story entirely. It was like the designer wanted to make a completely elegant case and just gave up on the phone mount. The mount itself is made of plastic, which feels really weird when wrapped in a lambskin case. It just doesn't fit. It's like getting a Ferrari with a Fisher-Price shift knob. Really weird. I could probably forgive all of that if the plastic itself didn't stain from the skin tanning. I've only used the case for a few days and already, the innermost edge of the phone mount has a very visible brown streak down it. Extremely disappointing.Overall, the case is probably the best you can have shipped to you right now. It still performs very well and I receive quite a few compliments about it. If you're after the upmost quality wallet-case money can buy for your iPhone 5, I would highly recommend the Pad and Quill Pocket Book case instead. I will definitely be switching to this case as soon as they start shipping in a few weeks: [...] You'll pay a bit more, but the quality is definitely better and it basically addresses every complaint I have with the Bear Motion case.",3103,0 +3104,"Farewell Motorola H500, you won't be missed. + +Searching for the perfect Bluetooth headset is akin, I think to some people, the search for the Holy Grail.

Dell Venue Pro is a 4.5/5 + +I would give the dell venue pro a 4.5/5 if I could.For the most part the Dell Venue Pro never ceases to amaze, the screen is brilliant, the design is brilliant and windows phone 7.5 is stunning.I had never really used a Windows Phone 7 device until this phone, and I just have to say. It's leaps and bounds past 6.5 and even better than android... Everything is so smooth. A surprising treat is how good the on screen keyboard is, I rarely ever use the slide-out keyboard except for long emails.As far as specs go, the phone runs great, can play videos and music with ease. The phone only has a 1Ghz processor and 512mb of ram but you hardly notice it, apparently WP7.5 is a slim os :D. Another super good thing on this phone is the loud speaker, I have never heard a speaker on a phone that could get this loud, and although its got no bass it doesn't get distorted. I will say however, the camera is pretty bad, definitely nothing to write home about or that I would use to replace a point and shoot camera...Although the phone is really good, it does have some downsides (minor stuff), I've noticed(like everyone else has been saying) that the power button is awkwardly placed, it's hard to hit it without moving your hand. Another issue with the buttons is the camera button(it's really hard to press while keeping your stand steady, making pictures blurry), you can just tap the screen to avoid this issue however. Other than the camera and button placement issues I'd say the phone is great. And surprisingly, it can make it through a whole day with standard use on a charge, despite it's small battery, with WIFI and bluetooth on.As a whole the phone is a win, but there are a few cons and if you can live with them I'd definitely say its worth the no contract low price. If you're looking from a change from Android for a while, definitely give the DVP a try!EDIT: After being generally disappointed with the camera (as you've read in the review) I decided to mess around with some of the settings and if you adjust the exposure compensation to -.7 the camera (although a little dimmer than normal) takes pictures quick enough to where they aren't blurry.On a separate note, make sure you are getting the right phone for your network. Although these are unlocked phones there are two different models, one that doesn't have an 850mhz UMTS band for T-Mobile and one that does have the 850mhz UMTS band for AT&T.; Be sure to check this before you buy because the T-Mobile phone wont get full 3G network coverage on AT&T; and the AT&T; model won't get full 3G coverage on T-Mobile. I've found the majority of offerings on the web are for T-Mobile and since I have at&t;, I had to do some digging. I'd just send the seller a message here on amazon and see what phone they are selling.Cheers!",3109,0 +3110,"Comparison between Xperia Z and Xperia Z Ultra + +Personal background:I've been using Samsung Galaxy notes (1, 2 and 3) for the past year.Loved all 3, and just kept getting bigger, better, faster.Tried a Sony Xperia Z (smaller phone) a couple of months ago, that was a mistake.The screen was washed out, the battery was horrible, the speaker was weak, camera wasn't great. All of thesewere good on the Notes 2 and 3 but Sony let me down.I was hesitant to try the Xperia Z Ultra because of my experience with the original Xperia Z but I gave it a chance.Z ULTRA:LOVE IT! Sony vastly improved the battery life (lasts all day with heavy use), the screen is much better, more colors, more vivid. Speakerphone is not the loudest but it's much better than these other reviews would lead you to believe.It is a fingerprint magnet, but very well built, beautiful design.

So after a few hours of reading reviews on a dozen or so different headsets, I finally decided just to settle for the H500, I was really interested in some of the Plantronics sets, but she didn't care for the design.. I was a little worried about the H500 because the reviews are kinda so-so.. They're either good reviews or bad reviews. I got it for her so she wouldn't have to fumble around in the car with a phone so how it performs in a vehicle was going to be the make or break point with it. I'm pleased to say that the headset performs way better than I expected it to.Getting started is a breeze. All you have to do is charge the headset for about 2 hours (the LED light will go off once the battery is charged) once it's done charging you have to pair it up with your phone. All you do is press and hold the call button until the LED light stops blinking and stays lit, then you have your phone set to hands free mode and follow the simple steps on the phone (For us it was as simple as the phone finding the H500 and entering the 4-digit pin of 0000) The phone saved the settings and we were all set.Using the headset is no brainer basically. There 3 buttons; Main call/multi button & Volume up & down buttons. Pressing these buttons in various combos will yield different results like mute, hold, transfer, 3-way, etc. The retail package comes with a handy fold out that has all the functions and how to access them.The build quality of the headset is great as well.. The headset is about 2 inches from earclip to mic. Its very small and very comfortable to wear. The ear clip is removable to you can use it on either ear as well. The buttons feel solid as well.Now to the actual sound quality. The headset has performed great in all the scenarios we've tried so far.. Which has been in the house while watching TV, In the car with the stereo & windows up & down & in an office environment. I was most impressed with how it performed while driving, There is no static or any background noise at all and even with the radio and window down, the user can clearly be heard both ways. Again very impressive. The only environment we haven't really tried yet was at the store. I will update once I've tested that as well.I can't really comment on the battery life yet, because we've only had the unit for a day or so, but so far the unit has yet needed to be charged.So to summarize, great headset overall, feels & looks great, sound quality is super, voices are loud and clear. Performance in the car, home & office was excellent and the price Amazon offers is great compared to retail. I'm very very satisfied (and relieved!) that this unit performs as well as it does.",3112,0 +3113,"HTC Sensation Armband - Finally Arrives! + +Igadgitz said they custom-designed this case to fit the HTC Sensation - and they were right. It's perfect. The phone controls are fully visible and accessible, the fit on the phone is snug, and the materials seem to be of good quality and well constructed. I have used it in the gym while using weights and running, and it is comfortable enough on my average woman's sized arm, and is easily maneuverable when needed.The phone itself is large, and might take some getting used to, especially if you are graduating from a smaller device like a Blackberry like I did, but thats just the phone itself.I purchased this armband as soon as it was released in August, 2011. Before purchasing, I learned from T-Mobile corporate, stores, and vendors that there were no OEM bands for the HTC Sensation, so I tested several alternatives within stores based upon some blog recommendations. None of the suggested alternatives let me use all features of the phone and none covered/protected the phone completely. The others sold here on Amazon had generally good reviews but came with several ""buts"" in terms of the end of the phone having to stick out. So - I am happy I waited for this armband to be designed and released. So, for all of you loving your Sensation like I love mine, I'm happy to say yes - finally - we have an armband designed just for our phone.[ASIN:B005DEN2GC iGadgitz Black Water Resistant Neoprene Sports Gym Jogging Armband for HTC Sensation Android Smartphone Cell Phone]]",3113,0 +3114,"Barely functional, difficult to use. + +I strongly urge you to NOT buy this product and consider one of the more expensive styluses. I know it may seem ridiculous to pay $10+ for a stylus, but the cheap ones like this just don't work very well. They are difficult to text with and don't even think about using them to play a game. The black tips of the styluses you see in the picture are not firm like plastic but are made of a flexible foam. I tested them out on my Samsung t528g and found that you have to press fairly hard on the screen to get it to register a touch which deforms the liquid crystal display. This is very bad for the screen. And often when pressing on a space it will misclick and register a touch on an adjacent space instead. So if you text using one of these things, be prepared to do a lot of re-typing. Also, since the tips are merely cheap flexible foam, it's only a matter of time until the tip wears out so I don't expect them to last very long. Good thing I only paid a few bucks for these or I'd be getting my money back. I saw three other reviews rating these styluses at five stars and raving about how good they are.

So far, it's been an excellent experience. I use it paired with an iphone for telephone conversation as well as for listening to music & podcasts in the car. I have it clipped to my visor directly in front of me.Pluses --- Voice guided pairing was a snap. I like the voice announcements in general, telling you what mode it is in, etc.- Very good sound quality and noise rejection, even in a small sports car. It's not perfect, but works at least as well as any BT headset that I've owned. The people I call never complain about my voice quality, and I'd give it about an 8/10 for incoming call sound quality.- FM transmitter works very well ... as well or better than the dedicated ""beamers"" I've had. I use it mostly in this mode, listening to calls & music through the car stereo speakers. Music sounds good. It's easy to tune FM frequencies to a blank spot, although you really can't do it while driving.Minuses --- none really that I've foundToo early to tell --- battery life- haven't tried simultaneously connecting to two devices, as advertisedThumbs up.",3117,0 +3118,"Too New, Not Intuitive Enough For Me + +I have been an iPhone 3G user for over a year and I love the iPhone. However I hate iTunes so I wanted to look into an Android phone.The Samsung Infuse has a beautiful screen, it's slim and light, and navigation seemed easy enough. I like the Android interface, customizations, widgets, and the beautiful live wallpaper. Apps opened very quickly and ran well.The sound quality on my Samsung Infuse was not as clear and good as my iPhone 3G. I had a few people complain that they had difficulty hearing me. One of those times I was on a Bluetooth headset, and I never had a single complaint about sound quality with my headset on my iPhone, but on this phone my husband couldn't hear me well with the bluetooth headset enabled.The signal strength was not as good as my iPhone 3G. I lost my signal in areas where I was able to make calls from my iPhone. I was disappointed because I do live in a rural area with lots of weak signal areas, and I need a phone that works in those areas! The iPhone always did well for me, even in weak signal areas.Another problem for me was the phone was a little too wide for my hands. With the iphone, I had it in a case and the case fit well against the palm of my hand. This phone, being so thin and flat, I could only grip it by the beveled edge. My palm had no contact with the phone. It slipped out of my hand so many times! The phone feels so fragile because it's thin. That said, it fit really well in my pocket (without a case). I was afraid of breaking it all the time though.I am left-handed, and that's never really been a problem before in using a phone, however with the Samsung Infuse, maybe because the screen is so wide, I found it was really awkward to hold and control with my left hand. The volume rocker on the left and the power button on the right are positioned in such a way I was getting them constantly and annoyingly confused.Another issue that may just affect left-handers, according to what I read on the internet (may not be true, I can't confirm) when you answer the phone with your right hand, something inside the phone (accelerometer maybe?) senses the movement and understands you are answering the phone, and it locks the touch screen so you don't accidentally touch the ""end call"" button. It didn't screen-lock when I answered so I ended up accidentally hanging up on people.The phone has a front-facing camera but as of this writing, it doesn't support Skype video chat.The screen is beautiful, however there is no Netflix app like there is for the iPhone, and no Hulu plus app, although there are some other android phones that can get Hulu plus.The music player wasn't very easy to use or very handy, the battery life was poor for me - it could not hold a charge through a full day, on my unit, the headphone jack didn't work.

I bought mine about 4 months ago and I still curse at it daily. That's how bad it is.So many bad stuff I don't know where to start...1) Some basic phone 101 functions are not included. For example, if a friend sends you a text message to ask you the number of your friend John, on most phones you can access your ""contacts"" while writing the message, and get John's number automatically. I could already do that on my first phone back in 1997; but no such thing on this 400 $, 2005 phone. You have to remember the phone number or write it on a piece of paper and then type it yourself.2) When someone who is not yet in your contact list sends you a text message, you should be able to use that message to save their phone number, right ? Wrong. On this state-of-the-art phone, you need to pretend to call then, then quickly cancel the call, then scroll through to your ""called numbers"" list, and from there you can save the new phone number.Just these 2 things give you an idea of how well-designed this phone is.More bad stuff:3. The PC software is horrible and counter-intuitive. It will take hours for you to understand how it works and start transfering music to the phone.4.The mp3 player software is awful to navigate in. Plus external buttons are badly designed and you sometimes jump to another song without wanting it, or start playing songs by accident while using the phone.5. Random exasperating fact : I have a one Giga memory card and there is about 200 megas of free space on it. Yet every two days I have to spend time deleting text messages because the phone cannot save those on the memory card. And you can't receive new messages when the allocated ""text message memory"" is full. I can tell you, it's a great feeling to have to drop everything and chose some msgs to delete, in order to receive your new messages, all the while knowing you have enough space to store about 4 full CDs on your card.There is more but I guess you got the message. Just don't buy this overpriced, underdesigned exasperating piece of...phone.

Most often, I would collide my Nexus 5 at high speeds with another Nexus 5 and study the results while sitting on my large Henredon couch. In the end, I felt like I was left standing alone in an empty field.That is, until I discovered the SPIGEN Google Nexus 5 Case Slim Premium Protective Cases for Nexus 5! Discovering this case was both monumental and nobel. It has validated my mobile phone model and is a quantum leap over other cases.

While those cables were not cheap, I think they were worth it because their quality and especially durability exceeded genuine Apple cable. My first RND cable was in use for year and half and looks just like new. The genuine Apple cable would have been glued at least once during the same time period.When I was ordering 3.2ft cable, I expected to get the same type of cable as the 6ft one, except shorter. After receiving the cable I realized that 3.2ft RND cable has a different built quality. It is similar to the that of the genuine Apple cable. The cable is thin and the connection between the cable and the connector itself is not as durable as on the 6ft cable. Basically, when you hold in your hands, it is hard to justify $15.99 price tag.

There is a tower ~4 miles away, but with all the trees (I'm guessing) gives everyone problems. Especially inside our houses.I had bought a small cell phone signal booster that came with two small indoor antennas. One a little over a foot tall to pick up the signal, go through the booster, then come out a shorter antenna for the cell phone to pick up. That helped a little, but not nearly enough. I went from 0 bars, to 0 to occasionally 1 bar. Once in a blue moon - 2 bars momentarily. Overall my reception still sucked. So I got this Trucker antenna and mounted it on the edge of my roof like a TV antenna, and I bought the adapters to connect a coax cable (like for cable TV) and ran that around the house and through the outside wall (like you would for a TV cable) to another a adapter at the small signal booster. Now sometimes I see 3 and 4 bars of reception -inside- my living room!Essentially, it took an outdoor mounted antenna to make any substantial difference in my cell phone reception. (I have an older cell phone, and I don't want, much less want to pay for, a smart phone and wireless Internet where a 'microcell' might or might not help.)Edit: 3 weeks later - I don't always get 3 and 4 bars reception. Occasionally I do, occasionally it's 1 to 2 bars. But it's still better than anything else I tried. One of which was branching off my amplified broadcast TV antenna cable. That didn't help at all, with or without amplification.

I have owned lots of Android phones and this one might be my favorite yet. I NEVER thought I would say this about an LG phone. To put it in perspective, I have owned the Galaxy Nexus, S3, Rezound, Razr and Razr M.The one area where this phone really shines is reception. The Galaxy Nexus literally could not pick up a signal at my house, the S3 was not much better and the Motorolas had a solid 3G signal but barely picked up a 4G signal. This phone has been on a 4G signal over 90% of the time. Calls are crystal clear too. Not sure why the LG has a stronger signal at my house than any of the other phones but it does.The IPS HD screen is awesome too. Much better screen than some of the more expensive phones...It comes with some delivered themes. The Thor one is especially cool.It runs fast too. It had some delays when I first started using it but that has cleared up. I deactivated quite a few of the delivered apps that I do not need.The GPS locks on fairly quickly but not as fast as the Razr M did.The battery life is average but good enough for me. I am constantly around a charger if needed. If you need great battery life and do not have access to a charger regularly, this might not be the phone for you. On the positive side, the battery is user replaceable if needed. There might be after market options for a different battery but I have not seen one yet. It also comes with a micro sd card slot for expansion. So many phones these days do not have either of these options.The overlay that LG uses does not bother me. You could always use a launcher if needed.The phone would be even better with Jelly Bean. Hopefully this will happen sooner than later but I doubt it since the sales of this phone will be small and not likely a priority for Verizon. Plus LG has not been known for quick updates in the past.In my mind, LG has come a long way since even last year.

The one minor problem I have is getting the stylus out of my note. I do not have long nails so it takes me a minute to get it out because of the weird angle from the rubber being in the way. Besides that it is a great case though.",3145,0 +3146,"Doesn't fit all ear sizes; Echo problems + +I am on my third HBH-60 (Retailer exchange and SE warranty exchange), but there are still echo problems. Basically, the person who I was communicating with would hear an echo of his voice. I realized that if I had the mini boom angled upward, then the earphone part would fit snuggly into my ear (I think that the manual suggests angling the boom downward, probably for better sound pickup at the mike) which would reduce the echo. It turned out that if I snuggly fit the ear loop, then the earphone part would not fit into my ear hole and the echos would worsen. Even with the earphone part fit snuggly into my ear hole and, consequently, with the ear loop adjar, the person would say that he could still hear a slight echo if he spoke loudly. Basically, after some experiments, it turns out that the mike at the end of the mini boom would pick up the sound from the earphone at the other end of the boom. My problems may be mainly due to the poor fitting of the earphone part into my ear hole. Basically, if they made the ear loop more adjustable (or maybe even gave different-sized ear loops) perhaps this would've been perfect. Mine's going back to SE. By the way, I gotta say that SE was nice in FedEx'ing me a replacement, although it still echos. I would pay a premium for high-tech products, but only 1 star for the non-adjustable earloop contributing to the echo problem(many of the people I've talked to find the echo quite annoying). Mine had R1A on the bar code sticker, which may indicate "Revision 1A". Perhaps they'll fix either the ear loop or the echo problem or both by the time you read this. I'm now looking at the HBH-35 with the longer mike boom, but I'm not sure if its ear loop is any better. Jabra looks too dorky for me, in my opinion. Unfortunate that SE couldn't just have some sort of echo cancellation feature which eliminates echos for the poorly-fitting headsets.",3146,0 +3147,"absolute garbage. will never buy a blueant product again. + +I listened to buyers who complained about the unit breaking, but tried it as it has features necessary for android 1.6. I bought a protective case for the unit to give it extra protection when not in my ear. In less than one month, it broke into tiny pieces the exact same place everybody has been complaining about, on the incredibly cheap plastic they use on the earpiece. Absolute complete useless total junk. Dead in less than one month. I will never consider buying another Q1 product in this lifetime. Read the other complaints and scores of one. they're all valid. ""customer service"" is an oxymoron for bluant. Great headset as long as you don't intend to ever use it.---UPDATE: There are two types of people: Those for whom this headset has broken, and those for whom it won't break. If you're the type who ignores 1/3rd of reviewers saying ""this broke on them, but I'm sure they abused it, I'm sure it won't happen to me,"" then you're exactly the type of idiot whom Darwin wants to buy this headset.I cannot overexpress how CHEAP and pathetically designed the ear channel is. The THINNEST and cheapest plastic you can imagine is all that olds the ear bud to the main unit. There's NO exuse. So I took an extraordinary amount of time and did microsurgery on it, with JB weld. Got REALLY lucky, given this required an electron microscope, given how many micropieces the thing was in, 1/3 of which were missing, but I did it.Why? Because ALLEGEDLY the unit is one of the only headsets out there with voice control.Turns out that's bogus for many of us too.Does your phone has set up speed dial, or speed dials you can set up PERIOD? If it does, great. Mine sure doesn't.MUCH worse. The talk of ""handset will store speed dials"" is misleading at BEST. The unit will ONLY store numbers if they call YOU. Many of my speed dials I NEED are to COMPUTERS. They don't call *me* from the same number. Upshot? Unless the EXACT number calls YOU, the headset will NEVER store it. I even talked to tech in new zealand. She was laughing the stupidity of the whole concept -- I kid you not.-----------Firmware. How cute that you can IN THEORY update firmware.x64 users? You know, the code that's been around 5 or more years? Forget about it. The firmware will NOT work out of a REAL (non-virtual) x32 environment. PERIOD.Mac users? Gee, macs only been around what, 28 years? F(orget) you too. Not happening for you.So now to keep this unit limping along, I'll have to blow the dirt off a copy of XP 32, and find a @#$@#$# computer to load it on JUST so I can update (in theory) to the A2DP function it was advertised virtually everywhere as having in the first place.-------------Proprietary nonsense. Uses special USB connector intead of a common micro, so they can rob you for additional cables, if you can find them, or you can run around like a person who's time is worth nothing and take the cable everywhere you take the unit.-------------This headset could have been a contender. Instead, it's chock full of suck. At least you won't have to use it too long, as you could put this stupid thing is a bullet proof case in the museum and it's STILL going to break into pieces given its absolutely inexcusable shoddy construction. Maybe it's a good headset for bubble boy.

(just a little bigger than the iPhone 5S). It's also a little hefty but it makes it feel like a premium phone. The first thing I noticed about the phone is the speed / smoothness of the OS. There is virtually no lag whatsoever. (Android is known for being laggy).Another great feature is the frequency band for 4G LTE. It covers almost every carrier. The Samsung devices don't even have LTE and it's 2014. And when it does, it only covers a certain carrier. This phone is compatible with several carriers including AT&T;, T-Mobile, Straight Talk and several others.---------Edit: LTE must be enabled! I thought my phone as incompatible with T-mobile. Turns out, I had to enable LTE for some odd reason. (go to settings > wireless and network go to More > Scroll down to mobile network > Under preferred network > select LTE (preferred).---------Mobile Data Frequency Band (check to see if it works for you)---------------2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 19003G Network HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1700 / 1900 / 21004G Network LTE 800 / 850 / 900 / 1700 / 1800 / 1900 / 2100 / 2600---------------It comes preloaded with Jelly Bean but there is already an update for Kit-Kat right off the bat. The strangest feature of Sony's take on this OS is that the homescreen does not rotate. It is stuck on Portrait Mode. Originally, I thought the phone was broken or defective. But after some research, I see that Sony did this on purpose. For whatever reason, I don't like it.Another thing I notice is that the phone is pretty thick. It's thicker than my Galaxy Tab 7.7 (which I have been using for 3+ years as my phone / tablet). Not sure why it's so thick at this day and age. I really want to slap on a protective case but that would make this phone even thicker.Another thing to watch out for is the screen and the back cover. It scratches easily. You would think that they could have used something more scratch resistant like Gorilla Glass or Sapphire crystals.So for now, I am using a tempered glass screen protector. Which includes protection for the front, back and camera lens. See link below. This is perfect for now since I don't like carrying anything that would make the phone even bulkier.http://www.amazon.com/Nillkin-Hardness-Tempered-Protectors-Protector/dp/B00IQ9WROY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid;=1403474289&sr;=8-1&keywords;=Nillkin+Tempered+Glass+Screen+Protector+z1+compactThe phone itself is only slightly taller and slightly wider than the iPhone 5S.

A lot of phones these days seem to exclude this option because of how Apple does thing. Which is ridiculous.Overall, I am very happy with this phone. I thought about waiting for the Samsung Galaxy S5 Mini but since that will not have LTE capability, I decided to just purchase this phone and I am happy I did. This is my 1st phone purchase in 3+ years! I was waiting for a phone that fits my need and I believe this is it.Well, until the Z2 Compact comes out.

Equally scary is the thought of being an identity theft victim. So although it is not to my taste it does the trick and gives me peace of mind. There is plenty of room in the wallet, with space for bills on both sides, loose change fits in a zipped middle compartment and four card slots on each side. There is also an ID sleeve on one side of the coin compartment. It is also lightweight and well made.",3154,0 +3155,"A Complicated Misuse of $15 + +I've written a few product reviews on Amazon in the past; this is the first product i've rated less than three stars.The short version: the product simply did not work for me. I'd recommend you look elsewhere for a screen protector, regardless of how much you plan to spend for one.The more precise version: the product is the epitome of un-intuitiveness. Upon buying my iPhone 5, the only screen protector Verizon had in stock was the Zagg brand. Having used several screen protectors in the past, I figured they're all roughly the same, and did not hesitate to purchase it.The first problem is that the package included only one screen protector. Every screen protector kit I purchased in the past came with 3-5 protectors; if you messed up the first one somehow, you had several more to use. With Zagg, you get one screen protector, and one chance to install it correctly. Which is problematic, unless you work in a cell phone store.Secondly, the instructions and product arrangement are a mess. The screen protector adheres to an oversized square piece of plastic, and requires you to get fingerprints on the edges to remove it. There are two sets of instructions for installation, and each set basically states ""figure it out on your own and good luck."" The instructions included tiny visual aids and vague text which provide absolutely no help to install the protector. After accidentally removing the outer shield by mistake and then removing the screen protector from the base, the trouble really began.Thirdly, the protector itself is extremely flimsy, sticky, and difficult to install. I had to reposition the protector several times, even though I used the included spray which is designed to make installation easier. After properly installing the protector, I noticed the screen was extremely cloudy due to moisture, and parts of the screen protector looked discolored. I removed it and cleaned the screen itself again, thinking the problem would be remedied. The effects were only worse after I reapplied the protector; the screen protector somehow acquired several black spots toward the bottom, and the discoloration remained.After this exercise in madness, I accepted the fact that I had lost $15 and one hell of a battle. I threw the screen protector away, and then discovered the final problem: the protector had so much adhesive that my screen was still slightly cloudy/blurry. Extensive cleaning of the screen with rubbing alcohol thankfully remedied the issue.Installing a screen protector should be a painless exercise and carry no risk to the device or one's sanity. Again, whether you have a large or small budget for protecting your screen, i'd look elsewhere. Even had the screen protector worked effectively upon application, the process is too tedious and time consuming to be worthwhile.",3155,0 +3156,"Only lasted a couple of months + +I purchase this carrier case for my iPhone 4, the last case holder, that was advertised identically by this company was great.

It worked ok, for about 10 seconds, after which would not respond to my touch at all, however, it would still respond to the undo and redo buttons being pressed. I thought it might have been some type of issue with Procreate only so I tried it in all of the other compatable apps and none of them would register the pressure sensitivity. They barely registered the touch at all. Disappointed at receiving a defective stylus, I contacted Hex3 to get support with the stylus since I heard only good news about how great they are. I let them know the issue with what was going on and they told me to contact the seller for warranty inquries which I did. The seller told me to contact the company which I did as well. Hex3 then told me that it should be fine if it was from an authorized retailer and they would replace it.After induring all of the trials of explaining everything to the Hex3 team and giving them the nessacary information they needed, they then told me that they would not replace it and that they do not cover second hand products. The product was not second hand, it was brand new and the seller was an authorized retailer of their styluses. I continued to contact them but they ignored my emails. I went as far as to contact the head of the company with no response. I even went on their YouTube channel to let them know that my stylus was defective and haven't been getting a response and guess what they did... THEY BLOCKED ME FROM THEIR CHANNEL! Luckily I was able to get a refund through PayPal for the stylus and I bought the stylus that I should have bought in the first place, the Adonit Jot Touch 4. The Jot4 is amazing and SO much better than the JaJa. It has twice the levels of pressure sensitivity, doesn't require a battery, has a rechargable one built in, has added features such as palm reection, and MUCH better customer support.For anyone on the fence about this stylus, skip it. Don't make the same mistake I did, go for the better stylus which is the Adonit Jot Touch 4 if you need one now or if you can hold off for a little while, wait and get the Wacom Intuos Creative Stylus. That stylus will DEFINITELY be the best on the market, especially considering the company where it is coming from. Wacom is the leaders in the graphics tablet so go for that or the Adonit Jot Touch 4, don't get this garbage.

Works with AT&T and T-Mobile 3G data network!! + +The Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 GT-P3100 is a great ""Phablet""!! I am not going to write another product review on this great ""Phablet"" since there are already great detail reviews made by other users.I just want to confirm some of the questions that people have asked regarding this product.1) Will this ""Phablet"" work with AT&T; and T-Mobile 3G data network?The good news is YES.I confirmed that this ""Phablet"" has inbuilt 1900Mhz HSPA/WCDMA band which works with AT&T; 3G band.Then how about T-Mobile?Lucky us in the USA, the answer is YES. T-Mobile has started a ""refarm"" project in 2011 on the 1900Mhz HSPA/WCDMA band under their towers(since they want a share of the iPhone customer), and the project is now 95%+ completed. And these towers are start operating since late 2012. And the coverage of the T-Moilbe 1900Mhz is now upto 14 metro cities and expanding. I am living in Oakland, CA and am using the T-Mobile $30.00 prepaid plan, 100min talk/unlimited text/5Gb data plan with this ""Phablet"" with no problem. In my area the T-Mobile 3G data speed is great and stable. Very happy with the service.2) No Adobe flash installed???This ""Phablet"" does support flash. But unfortunately, Adobe and Google has pulled away the Flash player app from the Play Store since 8/2012. So in order to install flash player on your device, you need to go to the Adobe site to download the .apk and install it. Just google ""Archived Flash Player versions"" download the .apk, install it and you are good for flash contains and games.3) No 5 GHz N band wifi???This ""Phablet"" does have dual band support which means it does support 5 GHz N band wifi, but sadly, due to the 5 GHz N band usage problem in Europe, so after ICS the 5 GHz band is disabled on the device by default. You can still re-activate it but this requires rooting of your device which I am not going to cover it here.So hopefully these Q&A; helps!Enjoy your great ""Phablet"" the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 GT-P3100!! :-)",3181,0 +3182,"JUNK + +a piece of junk--u can hardly hear the other person talking--i bought 3 of these (garbage) so called rugged cell phones--what a mistake--dont buy these--ABSOLUTELY JUNK",3182,0 +3183,"Holds its own! + +Had this case on a white galaxy S4 for 3 months....it went in and out of pocket every day and it doesn't have so much as a smudge on it.

Decent stitching; somewhat ""grainy"" and stiff to the touch.Design - 3 of 5My Note 2 snapped in perfectly to hard plastic cradle inside this case; zero movement - made me feel confident that my phone was staying put! The over all size and shape of the case is ideal; no parts sticking out. The closure strap is, however, magnetic. I would say the magnet is close to 1/2 inch away from the screen when closed. It holds shut well, unless you put too many items in the adjacent pockets.The pockets seem very much an afterthought with this case; there was no additional room added to the case's girth to allow for 3-4 cards and some cash. I added my ID, 3 credit cards, my insurance card, and a $20 bill and a $1 bill - the case wasn't even close to shutting! If you plan on using these pockets - please note that they will hold 4-5 cards - max. No cash.Functionality - 3 of 5The case does it's job for the most part; I didn't drop test extensively, however I feel the magnet latch will hold fast for all except the most violent drops. The screen and back are covered well; the sides have .5 cm of space and the plastic girdle for protection. The weakest area would be the top and bottom; which are exposed and have .5 cm of case space protecting from falls.The tripod feature works perfectly; it's the best feature of this case by far.My biggest complaint about this case is the accessibility of the the power button and the stylus. Both have hold cut out to access but both are severely lacking. Unless you have small fingers you will find yourself digging for both.Summary:The case is satisfactory. For the price I wasn't expecting many bells and whistles. If you have large hands or if protection is a huge issue for you; I wouldn't recommend this case.

Holds my rather large and heavy HTC Touch Pro2 very well. The suction cup is very strong and the ratchet action on the cup release is well made. The only problem I had with the product was a result of my own negligence. After I had the holder mounted to my windshield I foolishly tried to adjust the position by grabbing hold of my phone and moving it. As the adjustable ""neck"" is very stiff (which is a good thing) I ended up breaking the plastic attachment where the body of the holder slips into the ""neck"" receiver. I was able to glue the pieces I broke back together with superglue and it works good as new.So needless to say, if you purchase this product, make sure any adjustments you make are done by grasping the ""neck"" itself and don't rely on the plastic body piece to handle the force required to adjust it's position. Overall, I am very happy with this product. Holds my phone in a position that enables me to use the media player through my stereo and allows the use of my phone's GPS.Good sturdy product, if used correctly.***EDIT***About a week passed after I posted my review and the unit has become useless. The suction cup mechanism relies on tiny little teeth to hold the tension of the lever which pulls the suction out of the cup thus sticking it to your window.I adjusted the position of this unit and went to lock down the suction using the lever. I heard a ""zip"" sound and a bunch of tiny little pieces of plastic fell from the suction cup area. These turned out to be the little plastic teeth mentioned above. They all just completely sheered off. So now the suction does not work at all.I ended up throwing this away and purchasing this one instead:http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001G7PIDA/ref=oss_productThis is a much better product.

As an avid Amazon shopper I feel it is my duty to keep others informed of products and companies. I ordered a skin as a gift. I placed the order on the 5th, and paid for the standard 3-5 business days shipping. I received my order on the 17th. I filed a complaint with the company and asked for a refund on my shipping since I did not get what I paid for. I quickly received an e-mail back saying they were aware of the situation and offered me a reimbursement for my shipping as well as a discount due to inconvenience. They also asked that I edit my negative review. Several days later I received another email again asking if I would remove my negative review, but at that point I had not received my reimbursement. Eventually I did, which is why I am here (apparently now re-)writing my review.The product didn't fit the phone exactly right but it got the job done. The bumper didn't fit with the skin, so sometimes when you hold the phone just right, the bumper peels the skin off. Also the paint on the bumper was chipped in one corner. The package was very damaged, which I assume why the paint was chipped. Due to the fact they knew they were having a problem with USPS and still chose to use them rather then someone like UPS or another means is sort of lost on me, especially because my package was damaged.At the end of the day this is what you will get: A mediocre product, which will come a week later then it should have, and it most likely will be damaged.",3203,1 +3204,"Very pretty until crystals fell out :( + +Just exactly what the photo showed, except some of the smaller crystals began to fall out after a week or so.

I have to update my rating of this phone to 5 stars. While it is not a cutting edge $600 (unsubsidized) phone, it is a great phone. Yes, there is some bloatware on it and I really like a larger screen, but it is a solid phone with much to commend it. This is a great little phone. Worthy of 5 stars, even if there are a few annoyances. Considering the price, and the great promo plan price through T-Mobile (5GB Data, Unlimited Text, and 100 minutes talk is the one I use). More on that below.I say ""little"" because, for me, it is little. I used to have the HTC EVO with the 4.3 screen. I was considering going to a Razr with that 4.6 screen... but went with this because I already have a 7 inch tablet... I really don't need a phone almost as big. Still, this has a larger screen than an iPhone. And it is quite capable as an Android phone.Others have excellent reviews of this phone, so I will look at the plan itself:*************************************************************5GB of DATA and Unlimited Text and 100 Minutes of Talk for Thirty Dollars????Since the online world is a buzz about THIS PHONE and specifically about the T-Mobile's 4GMonthly Plan, let me share my experience with getting on this plan when buying through Amazon:First of all, the date is 1-8-2012 and there is a rather extraordinary cell phone plan being offered by T-Mobile and Wally World...buy one of 2 or 3 data smart phones (such as this one) and get a $30 monthly (no contract) plan that includes 5GB internet data (a whole lot, you won't likely run out)at 4G speed, unlimited data at slower speeds after that (if you do run out), unlimited text messaging and video messaging, and 100 minutes of talk time... all for $30 a month. Now, understand, that low talk time is a killer for many users... some are using an application to talk via the data plan for some of their calling to help that. But if you go over the limit, it is only ten cent a minute after that. There you have it; that is the special Wally and TMobile offer as of now. Many of the Wally Mart stores are sold out of these phones and plans for the clamor for it. But the online community *(and TMobile) was unsure if purchasing this phone from other places would allow someone to get this same deal (instead of exclusively from Wally World). It is to this issue which I now write... if uninterested, skip to the end of review. ***Even though I called before hand to T-mobile to make sure I could get this ""Wally Plan"" (5GB/$30), upon trying to go online and activate I found out that the phones purchased from Amazon did not qualify. Through very many call backs, I eventually succeeded in getting this plan. However, I discovered afterwards that I didn't need to go through this time and effort. Rather, if you buy the phone from a place different from Wally World or T-mobile, you can simply call T-Mobile and order a $7 SIM card from them...then you will qualify for this special plan. Obviously, verify this for yourself first.Of course, you may not even want this plan. Therefore, judge for yourself what plan you need. The phone (if you understand what you are getting), is a great phone!Gingerbread Android, 3.7"" sharp, clear, multitouch screen, Android App Store, T-Mobile extras, MicoSD card slot, Bluetooth 3.0, 1 GHz processor, Wi-Fi networking plus Wi-Fi Calling capabilities, 3 MP camera/camcorder; video chats via front camera; Bluetooth stereo music; microSD expansion; HTML web browser with Flash 10.1; Charger and Data Cable, Cases available starting at 1Cents on Amazon, High Def 720, Better audio than my EVO, and on and on. Now, if you try to compare this (now) midlin' list of attributes to the Motorola Razr or the Galaxy Nexus, well, you are going to dislike this phone. But, this phone will satisfy those who understand what they are getting... in fact, they may jump for joy that they have a non-contract phone of this quality.***I am thrilled that I have a very nice (even though I would prefer larger screen and an LTE network to run it on) phone and a great ""4G-ish"" data plan at such a price. This phone is very light and the smaller form factor makes it very portable.I have not tried the GrooveIP app yet (to go along with GoogleVoice (aimed at increasing talk minutes by using VOIP calling), I will update if I find a good alternative. So you know, the Wifi calling feature that comes on the phone works, but also uses your minutes. Just installing Google Voice will use your talk minutes too. Not sure why that is, yet...but will update if I find a workable combination.Good phone made great by virtue of the price/performance metric!And hey!

The label on the charger states that the cradle will charge at 4.2Vdc and 300ma. The USB output is rated at 5.2Vdc and 500ma. Given these stated specifications either charging method should be sufficient to charge the 3.7Vdc DROID battery. Given these ratings the desktop charger should fully charge a 1500maH battery in the cradle within 5 hours. However, I have found that after charging all night (8-10hours) the battery is not fully charged (charged to about 90%), even though the charging light has changed from red (charging) to blue (charged). A quick voltage measurement at the cradle terminals found only 3.8Vdc (unloaded), not the specified 4.2Vdc.

The screen protector is perfectly cut to match my phone and, for the price, is quite a good purchase. However, here are some tips that should help because it is pretty unforgiving in its application.First of all, do not use the microfiber cloth they provide if you have a better one. Personally, I was surprised that it was included in the first place, so kudos for the company providing it and it is definitely worth using instead of a paper towel, tissue, or even your cotton shirt to wipe your phone screen prior to application. I actually used the supplied cloth first, but when I used my own microfiber cloth right after, there was a difference.Secondly, you might want to use tweezers when handling the guard to prevent fingerprints. I used the very tips of my fingers, but the glue-side still revealed prints near the edges. Also, burnish the smooth side of the guard by using the edge of a credit card to help minimize the formation of tiny air bubbles. Make sure you do a ""practice run"" before application because there are no illustrations to indicate the top or bottom of the screen guard.It would have helped if the sticky side had its protective ""mask"" (can't think of a better description) cut in half, much like a band-aid, to help prevent fingerprints, air bubbles, and as mentioned from another reviewer, placement errors.All said, the screen guard still looks great, does its job, is barely noticeable (um, except for those prints I left at the edge). You definitely will not find it less expensive (we're talking around $10 at retail stores) and the shipping process was within a week so it was well worth the wait.",3211,0 +3212,"If you plan on using these for workouts: READ THIS FIRST! + +Let me start by saying that I really like these headphones.

The replacement was very easy and quick. I ordered another one for later use. I strongly recommend this. One last thing, I have a black iPhone 4S with AT&T; in 16GB",3223,0 +3224,"It's about what I expected, just OK + +I kind of figured for $29 for all this that the items would not be all that great in quality and I got what I expected. The car mount is very poor quality and probably won't hold up from much use. I'm going to order something else. It doesn't allow for landscape mounting at all but does have an adapter for vent mounting that I wouldn't trust to hold my expensive phone. The chargers and cables seem to be OK but the scratch cover doesn't even fit the Droid Incredible. It's square and doesn't even cover the length of the screen. 3 out of 5 stars is a generous rating to be honest.",3224,0 +3225,"Garbage (Samsung Galaxy S2) + +Searching for a case for my Galaxy S2 this product came up appearing to be good quality and advertised as made specifically to fit the GS2.

It allows her to move throughout the office area (to the copier/fax, etc) and between her office and mine w/o interruption. It also provides her the ability to type while on the phone w/o the discomfort of holding a receiver by tilting her head.

Some callers indicate the voice from my end sounds strange, but that may be just a matter of getting used to, as to me distortion is minimal or negligible when I test the system by leaving a message for myself, and most callers do not even take notice during use. It is the most satisfactory unit in terms of clarity in the earpiece, and the interchangeable rubber tips optimize fit and aural need for any user's ear. With my PPC 6601, the unit has been for the most part trouble free and a breeze to use.The mute function is one of my favorite and this is the first unit to provide consistent mute function access using the m/f toggle button. Doing so never endangers hanging up on a call (very intelligent engineering on that point!) because that's a completely different button and location which by the way is easy to operate confidently, even in a swaying, moving vehicle.The only known glitchs:-When I had to reset my PPC the unit must now pair using the passkey every time I turn it on, even though I have tried deleting the unit and re-pairing from scratch.-If I hip my PPC on my left and have the earpiece in my right ear signal stability is marginal--for clear-sight, mfr's stated usable distances have been accurate.I wish the boom was adjustable as it sticks out somewhat unimpressively from the side of my face (I'd actually prefer a longer boom that reaches down closer to the mouth, that would also I think improve the quality for callers).All in all this is the best unit for the money that I have come across. Several colleagues have asked me for referrals and are equally pleased.",3227,0 +3228,"Had To Return It + +Fully charged, paired, etc. it would work if I held it next to the phone instead of wearing it on my ear. Why am I not able to give 0 stars?",3228,1 +3229,"Horrible + +I got these and they were full of dust in the on the screen protector and ruined the first screen protector then the second one was to big and the edges were not aligning. this is a horrible screen protector stay away from it",3229,1 +3230,"Professionally Installed: Amazing for the price, but flawed. + +When it comes to ""higher quality screen protection"", consumers are often confused. Application for these kits are far more complicated than the typical 3 for $5 packs, and they typically allow far fewer errors. I have experience with Invisible Shield, Skinomi, and various other discount protectors for all sorts of electronics. I was in the market for a back cover shield and I decided to take the cheaper route.Application:If you aren't familiar with elastic/scratch resistant screen protection, it generally requires a wet application. This means that both your fingers and the adhesive must be damp in order to prevent finger prints and allow you to adjust the position of the skin after laying it on the phone.Don't be fooled by the extra steps, it is no different than your standard $1 protector. Infact, it is even easier because the wet application allows you to slide the plastic into a perfect position before it dries minutes later. Other protectors are one shot deals; you either have the perfect position from top to bottom on a whim or you throw it away.After application, you must allow the solution to dry. The phone will be usable after 5 to 10 minutes however the water used will take up to a day to fully clear. It's worth it.A liquid solution is not provided, however water is more than acceptable. I had no issues applying the cover, but I used several tools to make the application as perfect as possible for this review:- A dish of water for my finger tips (to prevent the shield from sticking to my fingers)- A spray bottle w/ Skinomi solution (just water and some soap)- An air duster (Can of Air, Duster Can, etc.)- 2x lens cleaning cloths (To rest the phone on and wipe clean later)- A hard plastic ""scraper"" (Used to get rid of air bubbles and excess solution)The end result was a perfect application with absolutely no dust, no air pockets, and no misaligned edges. It's easy so long as you have 10 minutes.Quality:The product was shipped in a normal envelope with a plastic sleeved, hard cardboard insert. The sleeve contained the two protectors and the cardboard insert was more than enough to prevent creasing of the protectors. It is similar to most cheaper products in the market today,I'm not sure as to the material of this protector, but it is very similar to TPU. TPU is a high grade plastic that is semi-elastic and rubbery. It prevents scratches because it is soft and has a slight amount of give. This means that scratches end up as tiny dents that usually puff out within minutes; no permanent damage.Xtreme Guard is a bit different from their more expensive competitors in that it is a bit thinner. While I found this to be an issue in theory, the skin still does it's job protecting against small key swipes and rustling coins. The thinness actually prevents the protector from peeling also since it has less thickness on the sides.What is unacceptable however is the quality of the cut outs. Each cut-out (such as the back camera hole) is very difficult to remove and can result in pulling and stretching the cut out until it finally gives way. This could lead to warping the whole skin! My back camera hole has one frayed little edge that doesn't sit flush with the back panel. This could lead to dust, air, and then peeling of the whole cover with normal use. I cannot say that each protector will be as difficult as mine to separate, but I do believe their system of cutting these skins needs a sharper blade.The Xtreme Guard is also not ""sticky"" like Invisible Shield. It won't pick up pocket lint and it certainly doesn't adhere to your pocket much like Invisible shield. It is more similar to Skinomi's Techskin in this regard. While it DOES have some grip to it, it may not have enough if you want a sure fire solution to drop prevention. This is up to you.Toughness:Due to the thinness of these protectors, stretching does become more of a problem. It is easy to incorrectly and unnecessarily try to stretch these skins into position. I have to say you need to be extremely gentle with these.Scratch resistance-wise, I simply used my nail to dig, swipe, and slash the back cover. I did no permanent damage and the protector simply filled out within minutes like new. Some users may feel a soft protector does less, however it is the give that prevents scratches and hard shields simply lose clarity as they are scratched.Clarity:This is the major and absolute biggest problem with this product. Clarity is its weakest point. I imagine that with the thinner protector also comes a cheaper adhesive. It has been more than 24 hours after my application and in the light I can still see a good amount of specks. These specks are not reminiscent of dust, but of poor adhesive that doesn't fully settle into place. Instead the glue peaks (much like what it would look like if you unattached, and reattached some clear tape). While this is fine for the back, it most certainly takes away from the screen.Each little speckle is going to translate to a missing some pixels and a dusty display. I do understand that a protector of this quality might simply take a longer time to settle, so I shall update this review in the coming days, but for now it is slightly annoying to look at.The protector is in no way finger oil repellant, so it does still need to be wiped off. I find that the more expensive brands do a better job of being finger print proof, but it is much better than a hard plastic cover or the base glass.I have no idea about the resistance to yellowing for this screen protector, but if you are worried about yellowing then you should most definitely stay away from Invisible Shield. I guarantee you will have a yellow screen within 2 weeks. I will update this as time goes on.There are some things that are COMPLETELY UNTRUE about this protector though:- Lots of Air Bubbles: This is your own fault, and not the fault of any protector. Infact, a wet application protector is more likely to prevent air bubbles than a cheap hard plastic one. There is no difference between the application of this cheap product and their more expensive competitors.- Murky or Misty: Regrettably, any protector that requires a wet application will suffer from a few hours of misty vision. This is because you are waiting for the water to dry while not leaving any visible air pockets. It takes time to dry, but it's quite worth it to have a flawless application. There ARE problems with the clarity of this protector, but calling it murky or misty is a huge overstatement that is simply due to impatience or ignorance (read the directions).- Difficult to Apply: There are many more steps to take to apply this protector because it requires water to apply, but, it is much easier than hoping you have laid your dry protector down perfectly from top to bottom. You will miss with the dry application, but with a wet one you can simply slap it on and slide it around until you get the perfect position. The adhesive doesn't run and it leaves no residue.If you want a cheap alternative to Invisible Shield or Techskin this is a great offer. Each of the more expensive brands have clarity problems as well (read my Skinomi review) however those may or may not be more annoying than speckling. If you can just assume the speckles are dust that come with normal use that's fine -- but if you want a super clean looking window I'd say go more expensive.",3230,0 +3231,"Fun and affordable cover! + +Great for the price.

Great Phone UNTIL YOU DROP IT!! + +Excellent performance, beautiful screen. Until you drop it. I dropped it ONCE from 2 feet after about 2 months. Shattered screen. The ""feature"" of having the glass go all the way to the edge means that if you drop it and it lands on any portion of the edge, it will shatter. It's $220 to fix, and two calls to HTC landed two separate representatives encouraging me to go elsewhere to get it fixed to save money and time! Their time to turn around the phone is TEN DAYS! There must be a huge demand, which means there must be a lot of people shelling out $220 to fix them. The other problem with the design is since it's such a large phone I can't imagine putting a protective case around it and being able to fit it in my pocket (front or shirt - and my pants/shirts are larger than most as I'm 6' 2"").

I measured the charging current draw of my old Sansa MP3 player, which was nominally 180ma. For USB, the charger should maintain nominal output voltage of 5VDC, under various loads. Here are the results of the evaluation.Open-circuit (no load) output voltage: 5.15VDCOutput voltage with 10 ohm (10 watt) resistor: 4.83VDC (ripple less then 200mv, sawtooth waveform, 30KHz, nominal current draw 480ma).I burned-in the device under continuous load for 24 hours; the re-measured output voltage showed no substantial change. Also, after the burn-in period, the 2.4 watt load draw did not result in a significant temperature rise felt in the charger itself.Disclaimer: These results are for the single unit I evaluated, I make no claims that all, or any other chargers of this type will produce the same results. It's clear that I did not stress to unit to it's maximum stated capacity of 1000ma. Users should not assume that their USB devices will not exceed the current draw rating of the device, particularly when charging more then one device. I have done this evaluation for my own purposes; I have no connection with any of the sellers, or the manufacturer of this device.UPDATE: I used the charger to successfully recharge the Sansa MP3 player without issue. Of course, at this point I can not speak to reliability over time, as I just started using the device. As a side point, the power pins of the unit I have appear to be very firmly attached; again this is the only unit I have at this point (three more on order), so I can not speak to quality-control as regards this USB charge in general. Reminder, care should be taken not to exceed the current ratings of the device, as this could result in over-heating the charger, which could in turn result in loosening of the power pins.",3235,0 +3236,"Great Item for the Price + +This item comes with a lot of stuff for getting you going - It comes with a headset, extra ear rubber (for comfort), an extra ear piece (for placement), a belt case for a phone, a car charger and a wall charger.Pros:SmallSeemingly durable (Can keep in pocket without worries)Comes with extra accessoriesFantastic Value for the priceDecent range (I can leave it on my desk and navigate my dorm room and some of the hallway with a connection)Cons:Can get really uncomfortable after a whileCan be really quiet sometimesPeople can't always hear what I sayOverall, I would definitely recommend this product, easily because of how much you get for the price, and also because it is a very convenient thing to have.",3236,0 +3237,"Not worth the price + +I returned it; found a better one.

Sending a text costs .30 minutes and reading a text takes another .30 minutes. Very rarely it will say a text failed to send and you will have to send it again wasting .60 minutes. Sending up to 5 pictures costs 1.00 minutes and receiving a picture(s) costs 1.30 minutes. Since this phone is Triple Minutes the minutes you buy are multiplied by 3. I use the 120 minutes card that costs $30 then it ends up being 360 minutes, and using a promo code gets me to 420 minutes. The internet browser is really slow, but you can use it for basic things. I haven't really used the browser since I use my computer and don't need to be connected to the internet when I go out. Calling is average, but I just use it to talk for up to 2 minutes and it sometimes makes strange noises. It's kind of like a smartphone, but I wouldn't say it is. The touch screen isn't the same as on other touch screens, so you have to push your finger harder. The games on this phone also are pretty bad, but it has a calculator with Sin, Tan, and Cos which I find very helpful in my math class. Every card you buy comes with 90 service days which is great and you can buy more minutes to add more days. Your old minutes won't expire as long as you have service days it's really good if you like to conserve your minutes.

The one pictured is identical to the one I got with the original bundle. It's not meant for the droid x. It's actually for the iPhone. You can see for yourself that the image for the car mount is identical to the one used in the iPhone bundle they sell:Accessory Bundle for Apple iPhone 3G / iPhone 3Gs - Custom Pack by MAGBAY. The holster pictured there is exactly the one I got, which explains why it didn't fit, which explains why they replaced it with the gel skin.So just so you are aware, the car mount pictured will not allow you to charge the phone or use the HDMI port because it doesn't expect those ports to be located on the side of the phone.The other items are fine. Can't knock this new bundle for the holster because they nixed it, and although the screen protector doesn't quite fit (a bit too small) it's doing the job so far.

They don't take advantage of the keyboard enough: The keyboard has a Delete key, but you can't use it to delete a message. That's a waste. Likewise, you have to scroll through your emails one...line...at...a...time. Why not use the space bar as a quick scroller, like in Outlook? To issue a command, you have to use the menu and arrow keys. They should have assigned letter or number keys to each menu command so you can navigate more quickly with single keypresses.

A nice phone until you have to talk on it. + +Okay, so I started reading reviews AFTER I purchased this phone. Seeing all of the ""horrible sound quality!"" comments, I was pretty nervous. And I had a reason to be. The sound quality on this phone is awful! I don't think it has anything to do with Cingular or reception, as I've never had problems with cingular before. I just can't hear anything on this phone and what I do hear is muffled and distorted. My friends are tired of me saying, ""What did you say?"" over and over again and they can't even hear me half the time. Also, I've had several instances of the phone ""freezing up"" on me. I'll have to remove the battery to get it to start working again.It's a great looking little phone and the camera is pretty cool and fun to mess around with - but in the end, it is a phone.

In fact, I was heading out of town for the next two days and it completely caught me off guard that it shipped across the country in only two days. Now I have a case for my trip!!! I reviewed on Youtube about 20 different slim designs and this one was by far the most impressive from an aesthetic view and a functional view. Functionally it covers all corners and wraps around the front glass so you can set it face down on smooth surfaces. Aesthetically it looks beautiful and feels amazing in your hand. it is very smooth yet grippy. It has some kind of matte finish that feels like silk in your hands, yet grips well, like a rubber when you apply any pressure. The perforation also aids in the grip.On second thought, ignore this review. Do not buy this case.

As an extension and socket splitter it is OK.However they missed an essential trick on the USB power supply. If a device wants a smart USB powered device like an iPhone or iPod to see it as a high power source, and not as a data connection, it needs to short the data interface pins with a resistor not more than 200k ohms. That is in the USB spec. You can tell this hasn't been done because when you plug in an Android phone it asks if you want to mount as a media device or a hard drive.So if you are looking for a neat way to power and charge a modern smart device then this isn't it. For the 2c it would cost them for the resistors the manufacturers really should have done this.

Be sure it is what you want. + +I should have read more reviews before buying this.. and maybe looked at the pictures a bit closer. While this is a functional, well made cover for the KRZR k1m phone, a couple of things bothered me... and I am not using it. First off, the plastic cover over the keypad... well, it covers the fabulously tactile feel of the original keypad--with plastic. Typical. I want to feel the individual keys on the keypad, not a single piece of clear vinyl. I thought I could cut it off and the Body GLOVE would still work ok. It does not work very well, the cover is not going to fall off without the keypad plastic, but when you open the phone, the cover moves around and the back tends to bow out and off the phone... the nature of the two connected pieces top to bottom. The top portion is hard to slip on and hard to slip off... Putting it on, I bet someone already broke their phone if they were not careful. I like the fact that it protects the outer glass piece, and covers the internal screen with a clear piece of plastic. I might have kept this piece on... except that the cover is just thick enough to prevent the phone from snapping into the Verizon holster (where the glass cover is inside and faces the holster). All in all, I guess you have to try it, but once you cut it up... you feel bad that you spent any money at all and that half the money you spent was for standard shipping. Yeah, $6-8 for a case, $6 for shipping. Weighed the envelope ... less than 2 ounces. Hello--that is less than $2 in shipping. Anyway, you might like this cover, you might not. Probably best asking your nearest cell phone outlet to ""try on"" some covers and then deciding which one you want to buy.",3266,0 +3267,"Fantastic fit and value. + +I’ve dropped my iPhone a couple times and have managed to break the glass and have had to have it replaced. This time with my new phone I figured I had to protect it but didn’t want to spend a lot of money. This case is perfect. It’s minimalistic and unobtrusive, but does a nice job protecting your phone from simple drops. Totally the perfect case for the wife and I.",3267,0 +3268,"Lighter than the Picture + +I agree with the other reviewers: The case is really nice. It's comfortable, durable, but I'm disappointed having paid so much more for it for the color because it doesn't look like the picture. It's a lot lighter which shows a lot of contrast between the black of the phone and the case. If you had a white phone, I think it would look really cool, but with a black phone it doesn't look as good as the picture shows.EDITED:In addition to what I explained in the comments section, after having tried the white phone with this case and posting the photos; I'm noticing that the manufacturer's picture is not a true representation of what the face looks like on any of these cases. Keep in mind when buying any of them that the color of the phone will show as a border around the screen. IOW, the picture shows the color of the case going all the way to the screen. But it doesn't.In reality, the case shows a border of the phone color. So if you have a black one it looks like it's part of the screen. If you have a white one, when it's on, you see the color of the plastic case, then a white border, then a small black border, then the screen. It's too bad. The white would be a really pretty color with this teal color but, imo, it just becomes too busy with that border on it.So, no matter what case you get, take that into consideration. With a black case and a black phone, it all looks like one piece. With any other color faceplate, you will see the phone color itself. So, I'd imagine with a white phone, you might consider the grey case with the white faceplate. Long story short, if I had it to do over again, I'd pick my case first, then decide on which phone color I wanted.All of that said, these cases are awesome cases. They're really comfortable and durable, they just don't have the refinement down for the color scheme for people who notice the little things. My husband's black phone, black case looks awesome. As of yet, I haven't seen a white defender case for the 4s.",3268,0 +3269,"Please fully read before purchase + +I purchased this when I first bought my S4 due to good results with my iPhone. I will separate this into pros and cons. There are several large flaws in this product that is not stated on the box! This was a new unit being used with a factory battery on a new phone. These observations are after 2 weeks of use. There are several important cons so please read my recommendations before purchasing.Pro's-Adds to the time you can go between charges-Has a nice rubberized feel-Doubles as a case-Ability to turn charging on and offCons-Blocks the use of NFC not stated on packaging-Blocks the use of S Beam also not on packaging-Consistently lost 2-5 db of signal strength despite their claims of no signal loss. This made the difference between dropping calls and having data coverage where signal was weak and having to remove it to make the call.-With the Juicebox installed the phone will not go into dock mode due to the lack of pins that the Samsung micro usb cable use on their docks-Without the Juicebox installed the charge rate with stock charger and usb cable is 1200maH with it installed and fully charged it only passed though 740mAh with it on or off!-You theoretically add 2200mAh but loose around 10+% due to the inefficiency of charging circuitry plus they also only recommend turning it on when the factory charge gets down to 20%. I don't want to have to watch my level all day. All that bulk only gets you 1980mAh battery at absolute best!-You cannot use headphones with a 90 end due to the case being too thick, they will not reach the connector-Adds considerable thickness and height to the phoneIn summary this feels and acts like a product made to work around any phone with a micro usb connector than one specifically for the Galaxy S4.A much better work around I have been using is the Hyperion 5200mAh battery and Seidio case for their extended battery. The charge rate is 1700mAh and the phone lasts for 3 days with average use! There is no blocking of the factory antennas for Samsungs NFC, S Beam or phone signal. My dropped calls and signal strength went back to stock, the headphones fit, dock mode works, the phone lost almost 1/2"" in height due to the juice box design, A full charge takes only 2-3 hours vs overnight. I have yet to find a negative with this combination except I wish I saved the money and did it first. I hope you find this informative and save your money, I wish I did.",3269,0 +3270,"Just a stylus with hair + +Styli were pretty hard to find on shelves during the holiday shopping season. While shopping online I came across the Nomad and decided to give it a fling, especially since there were so many negative reviews pertaining to common rubber-tipped versions. Well, it's basically just a very pricey stylus with fur. It's well-constructed, but comes without any means of protection. No clip, no case. It feels nice in the hand, especially if you hold it properly while using it with graphic programs. That means up closer to the ""eraser"" end, rather than down by the point, as you would hold a pen or pencil. This allows for a nice sweep of the hand for stroking. The short end requires you hold it with the chiseled face flat against the screen. No cheating with attempts to use the sharp point of the bevel. And the mark is exactly the same as you get with the long brush end. Bottom line though, with a capacitive touch screen it's simply a matter of on/off. It doesn't matter if you are using a toothpick or a telephone pole, Thickness and thinness is a function of the software, not the pressure or shape of brush tip. In that sense the ""brush tip"" is just another finger. Pressing it onto the screen doesn't alter the stroke width. Advantage? Assuming I can avoid damaging it during storage or transport, If it lasts as long or longer than two of the more common rubber tipped models I'll at least break even. A pricey experiment without a significant reason-for-being.",3270,0 +3271,"Great case & color + +I absolutely love my case! For $16 something and free shipping with Prime, I would purchase this product again. The color is more of a minty green, very vibrant and fresh. It's really unique and perfect for spring and summer. I felt that this case serves for great protection for everyday use and it looks great at the same time. I've had it for about one week. There are a few minor scratches on the outer hard shell, but that doesn't bother me bc you can't really notice them unless you hold it under a light. The case does its job and the price was right. I'm not planning on throwing my phone off a building like in the Otterbox videos so I could care less about having a case that looks like a bulky toy phone. The Speck case is sleek and fits my iPhone 4s perfectly without interfering or rubbing on the edges of my screen protector. Its hard on the outer shell with a soft rubber on the inside to absorb any shock. In regards to having difficulty taking the case off, there are instructions that come with case.

Bluetooth headphones - so far not impressed with either sound or price. I got a pair of LG stereo headset for $60.

Gorgeous thin body, and a responsive, vibrant & gorgeously detailed screen that just feels good to your fingers. :)But alas my particular part of the real world also frequently includes water and small children. I wouldn't have it any other way, but such real world factors raise serious questions as to whether an unprotected phone would survive its 2-year contract intact. :(So . . . a case that is water, dust and shock proof seems a very good idea. Until now, that meant a clunky case that would turn my beautiful, slim and sleek phone into a clumsy, almost unusable clodhopper of a device.With that background, this new case is a huge jump forward. It's FREAKING BRILLIANT that the folks at Lifeproof figured out that you don't need to cover up the *gorgeous and responsive* touchscreen with a goofy plastic or silicone cover in order to waterproof the case. Some of the best ideas are the simplest ones, and hey you know what??? Te gorilla glass that now covers most phones is not only pretty darn durable, but it's inherently waterproof. Assuming you take reasonable care of your phone, it's the one part that doesn't really need a lot of extra protection. (Knock on wood, I've never had a problem with a phone screen scratching or breaking). So it's *wonderful* that this case allows you to see and use your touchscreen as god and Steve Jobs intended. (Yes, some really heavy users probably want ultimate protection including a screen cover, but they can either put on the adhesive screen cover that comes with this case, or buy the other Lifeproof case. For me it's definitely worth the relatively small vulnerability to the screen to leave it uncovered.)As for the rest of the case, it's good, but obviously not designed by the likes of Jony Ivy (who is ultimately responsible for sweating the details of feel and design for Apple). On the plus side, the case is reasonably simple and attractively clean in overall design, and not unduly thick for a highly impact resistant case. The o-ring seal which is designed to keep the phone dry seems likely to do its job, and the way the headphone jack cover screws in but is also attached when unscrewed makes practical sense. I also very much like the fact that this case is unlikely to get filled with dust, which was one of the things I really hated about lesser cases. Most importantly, the case manages to impair the various functionalities of the device only very marginally - which is saying a lot when you consider the case is supposed to be water, dust and shock proof.On the other hand, if you care about aesthetics, the case is not nearly as good as it could be. The plastic has a yucky feel (think hard automotive interior plastics from the 1980s) which is not particularly pleasant to hold or look at. It even has nasty little bumps where the plastic was removed from the mold (especially for the headphone jack cover). It's all reasnably functional, but it's way below the standard of most high quality consumer goods which place emphasis on having pleasant tactile qualities. As for sound transmission, the case is functional, but the speaker has a nasty boomy quality at high volumes (e.g. speakerphone) when contained within the case, and some reviews have complained that the microphone seems muffled when you talk to others. (So far, no one has complained to me that they have trouble hearing me when I make phone calls). These are tolerable trade offs for the protection the case provides, but there is clearly room for improvement, especially re design and aesthetics.Overall, I'd say there is definitely room for improvement on this case. But if you're looking for water, dust and shock protection while retaining relatively unimpaired access to your phone (and especially its screen), this case is an awesome improvement over anything else out there yet, and the idea of leaving the screen uncovered is brilliant!",3275,0 +3276,"NOT as durable as advertised! Would NOT recommend! + +I purchased the Zagg Invisible shield shortly after receiving an iPhone for christmas.

When this review was written I have a total of 3 SCRATCHES on my screen!3. You cannot put any type of case over the shield except a silicone one. I would not have a problem with that, but the shield, because of the aforementioned design, is irritating to hold and does not provide complete protection.Based on my experience, I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND this product!The front cover may well be worth it for you, combined with a slim fit case, but the back cover is worthless.",3276,1 +3277,"Very quickly becoming a necessity!!!! + +HI All,Well it would seem that a decision has been made in the Mobile World to standardize on Micro-USB ports for all mobile devices.

I purchased the extra long because I thought it would feel more like marking with a standard pencil which I am used to. I started with a micro fiber tip stylus, which worked alright but not as good as I hoped. The Friendly Swede customer service contacted me to find out how I felt about their product. I replied that the stylus did not work as well as I hoped. They ended up sending me different free samples (extra long micro-knit tip, extra long thin-tip, and extra long gaming regular tip) so we could determine which one would work best with my Lenovo. I was really impresses with their desire to satisfy me. After I received the samples, I tried them all and this is what I found: Although the Yoga's screen is capacitive, for some reason all three styli require a bit of pressure for the tablet to recognize them, when almost no pressure is needed at all with just my fingers. I tried all three styli on my wife's Google Nexus 7, my father-in-law's Apple I-pad, my daughters IPod touch, and my families Kindle Fire and they all work as good as my finger, except more precise. The Lenovo's screen must be a bit different. Which stylus was the most accurate? First place goes to the regular size rubber tip stylus. It works the best in highlighting words on the Kindle App, Adobe PDF files, and the Gospel Library app for the LDS church. Second place to the Microfiber tip. It glides the smoothest , but requires more pressure. Third place to the thin tip stylus. Also requires more pressure and is less accurate.In summary, they all require more pressure than your finger On the Lenovo Yoga 10, and the regular tipped stylus is the most accurate. If someone wants a stylus to be sensitive to their tablet like their finger is, I would not recommend these for the Lenovo Yoga 10, but would for the Google nexus, Kindle fire, Apple I-pad, and IPod touch. If you don't mind applying a little pressure, then go with the regular tips. I kind of like it requiring some pressure because I can use my stylus to help follow along in my reading without marking up the page, and if I want to highlight, I just add a little pressure.

I looked carefully to make sure I was buying the correct sized battery....but it is now useless to me, as it is much too large for my Samsung nexus s phone...",3292,1 +3293,"Good phone for the price + +This phone does everything I ask of it. I use it as an mp3 player, camera, and phone. I also use it to check email, watch youtube videos, and store some files among other things. This camera does all of that and more without a problem. But you do get what you pay for and here is what you are sacrificing by paying less.1. Battery life could be a little better. I haven't ran out of battery yet, but I only use the phone a couple of times a day, and don't really play games on it. If you like to play games and do a lot of stuff, the battery will run out faster. You can also turn off the wifi and bluetooth, and lower the screen brightness, as well as close apps to save battery.2. The camera takes satisfactory images. I expected the camera to be worse that it actually was, but it was actually alright. The only problem is shooting at night because there is no flash, but no big deal.3. Games that require a fast processor might be slower. I tried GTA Vice City on the phone and it ran pretty good. I haven't played many games on the phone but if GTA works, it can't be too bad.4. The phone doesn't have much internal memory, so having a micro sd card ready is pretty necessary if you want to install more apps. but the micro sd cards are pretty cheap these days.Here are some positives1. The phone is relatively cheap2. There are a bunch of apps available in the Google Play store3. The camera is good, but there is no flash4. The mp3 player sounds good, and does everything I ask of it5. Youtube videos looks very good. I don't need a super high def screen on my phone.6. The built in speaker is loud. Plugging in headphones sound good too.7. You can use the wifi to surf the web and make calls over wifi.Like most phones, I would also buy a cover because I don't want to test it's durability. I have also heard that some peoples phones run slow. My guess is that they don't know how to close apps running in the background. If you do, it's easy, and the phone should run fine.Overall this phone runs good compared to phones that cost hundreds more. It may not be blazing fast, or have a super hd camera, but it works fine as a phone, mp3 player, camera, and web browser, and it can run the apps that any more expensive phones can. In my opinion, this is all you need in a smart phone",3293,0 +3294,"Not a suitable replacement battery + +I received these batteries and charger a few days ago. Some observations after a few cycles:- NFC works as advertised.- The batteries are labeled as ""Replacement for Samsung Galaxy SIII (NFC)"" but they also are marked as being 3.7VDC while the battery that came with the phone is 3.8V.- The supplied charger is extremely slow but does charge the batteries fully (reported as 100% by the phone) but it then drops to 97% (as reported by the phone) very quickly (almost instantly).- Even though the batteries show the initial quick drop they seem to perform and last almost as long as original battery.Issues that I have with the batteries that I received:- The batteries are thicker than the original battery that came with the phone. Battery thickness was measured with a precision caliper (Original = 5.15mm, Hyperion = 5.85mm). This causes the back cover of my phone to bulge a bit and the my case (Seidio Surface) does not fit as well.- The batteries seem to confuse the charging circuit in the phone. Even though they seem to charge ok in the offline charger (it charges and then the LED switches to Blue when complete) they do not fully charge in the phone using the AC charger that came with the phone. The battery seems to confuse the phone. The phone indicates that the battery is nearly charged and then it drops and oscillates between 80-85% even though it is on the charger overnight (see the screenshot that I have attached).- The standalone charger is extremely slow. It takes many hours to charge a battery.I do not think these batteries are truly compatible with the Galaxy S3. The battery thickness is a problem. I think the fact that these batteries are 3.7V (vs 3.8V of the original) are a source for the rapid drop off (when using the standalone charger) and the failure to achieve a full charge (when charging in the phone).I would not recommend these batteries or this charger.",3294,1 +3295,"love it + +My husband ordered this for his new razr maxx, while I opted for a much less expensive silicone case. I hate to admit it, but I shouldn't have doubted him. His arrived fast and left me miserable, knowing mine wouldn't even compare.My favorite part of this case is the flip up ""covers"" to access the hdmi/charge and headphones. I love the idea that I can place the phone in my pocket and not have to worry about lint or anything else getting stuck (in the charge especially).My only suggestion is to buy a different screen protector. Granted the MAXX came with Gorilla Glass, but the idea of not fully protecting a $600.00+ phone makes me cringe. The screen cover included with the Otterbox is very generic and slick (as opposed to say Zagg's, which never seems to hold on to grease or anything of the nature).",3295,0 +3296,"Good basic phone for the price. Not without blemishes. + +I bought this phone as a replacement for my Nokia E51 business smartphone. I know this choice sounds odd. I just accidentally dropped my E51 in water and needed an inexpensive phone I can use before I can get a free upgrade from AT&T.;This phone is slim and build quality is good for the price. As for the low call/speakerphone volume, you can actually increase it (and it gets really loud). I assigned the ""volume"" function to one of the keys (Settings > My Shortcuts) and now can adjust the volume (even while you talk). Reception is above average.What's not so good about this phone is its grainy low resolution low color depth screen. It reminds me of one of the first phones I had back in the early 2000s. And of course, its basic functionality and lack of many features. However, if you need a phone to make/receive calls, this little phone is right for you.UPDATE!!!! There is another thing about this phone that annoys me much - you'll get a lot of dust and other particles between the screen and screen cover.

I had two windows phones and a few messaging phones prior to the Galaxy5. I use this phone on AT&T; with internet on my contract - Which isn't NEEDED but highly recommended if you intend to download apps. It synced up with my gmail quickly and I had no compatibility issues with my computer (running windows vista) So time for Pro and Cons.Cons:-This phone does not arrive in English (select: 4 square icon, A in square, top choice, and then scroll through)-MP3's are not able to be set as ring tones. There's apparently an app for that, but I haven't gotten around to downloading it as it's not a huge priority to me.- You need the headphones to receive radio stations - also not a deal breaker and i don't use the radio anyway but it just seemed kind of dumb.- IT DOES NOT COME WITH A US. STANDARD WALL CHARGER. This is kind of important. It does however come with a USB cord, so you can get one of those usb wall plug things if you need it for traveling or just use your computer.- It does not get 3G on ATT...it may get G, but i'm usually running off Edge or WiFi.- the face keys don't light up. This takes some getting used to when trying to use it in the dark.- if you write a very lengthy message it turns it into a multimedia/picture message...which is strange.Pro's-Touch screen is very responsive, rarely if ever laggy. The phone it's self is nicely weighted and you know all the hype about it being comfortable in your hand....completely true. I found this claim ridiculous when reading reviews about it before i bought it, but it really does just seem to fit in your hand nicely-Interface is decently set up, had to get used to hitting the menu button on the face to pull up options and menus since i was so used to having that an on screen option on my old phones.-Great introductory android phone, it offers the basic bells and whistles of Andriod phones (Live wallpaper, apps, games, etc) but in a smaller package.-I have kinda big hands for a girl and i can generally use the on screen keyboard with little error, plus it offers several types of text input, including predictive text, qwerty, Swype, the old school 9 button, and hand written.- calls are clear on my end and I've never had any complaints from anyone on the other end.-Silicon cases are cheap and easy to find on ebay.- I'm super impressed with the Wi-fi range, i was a good 20 feet from my house and still pick it up, I even get alerts of wifi available when riding in a car.-well built! I've dropped this approximately 3 feet onto the ceramic tile in my bathroom, it landed screen down, my heart stopped...I picked it up, there wasn't even a scratch.EDIT (Jan 15 2012 - 1 year of use)I've had this phone for a year, and it worked like a dream until I had upgraded to the official 2.2 release a few months back. If you're considering this phone with the thought of updating it to 2.2 Don't do it, It's ridiculously unstable, the use of my phone went so downhill I almost wanted to throw it against a wall. The wi-fi became unusable unless I used a static IP, which meant I could only connect to my home Wi-fi - and even then it didn't always want to connect, It would get ""the sleep of death"" which basically means it would go into suspend and not turn back on.HOWEVER if you're comfortable with user created roms and if you are/know someone who is tech savvy I had my boyfriend flash an un-official rom of 2.2 known as Motofoca, it has it's short comings too, but nothing downloading a free app didn't fix. Since the using Motofoca it has been much more stable, and the best part the wi-fi works as it used to, I still occasionally get the sleep of death but only once since i've flashed to it.",3297,0 +3298,"Good, but leaky + +So when I bought these, I guess I was hoping they would be magical.

I love the feeling of it too, and since I also bought my iPhone recently from Verizon, I'll most likely be keeping it until iPhone 6 comes out; unless, Verizon offers two-year pricing for every annual iPhone, which I highly doubt. So, I'm putting my full trust into this case to protect it for two years, unless I find another one I like.Just an FYI, there's two forms of protection you need for your phone, which are stratches and cracks.

It was significantly less expensive ($80-ish versus $130-ish) than buying another Jawbone and had all these voice activated features. I've been using it for several weeks now and I love it! The sound quality is terrific - I never have to raise the volume very high. The voice activation is so simple and integrates so well with my iPhone that I almost never have to look at my phone to interact with it. One thing it does that my Jawbone didn't was play any audio coming from my phone - so music and really any streaming audio, not just calls (though I've heard the latest generation Jawbone does this now too.) I also love that it has an on/off switch. There were several times I thought I had turned my Jawbone off, but either hadn't or somehow it got squished enough to turn it back on so the battery was low when I needed it. I also like that it uses standard micro-USB connectors for accessories instead of proprietary connectors. My only complaint is that whenever I ""check battery"" it tells me the battery is ""medium"" - right up until it starts to beep and then dies.

The recommended resolution is simply to turn off WiFi calling, which is unacceptable.Also, the call volume is horrible. The only way to hear someone calling is to put it in speakerphone mode.",3309,1 +3310,"How could they have possibly made it worse? + +Jabra has been one of the leading brands in Bluetooth headsets. Where did they go wrong? And why? The first (and really important) thing to note is that this headset is rated at only 2 hours of talk time. It is maddening to wonder how many minutes you have left while on a call before the battery dies. Oh, you say, Jabra states 10 hour talk time? Read the fine print, that's if you put it in the small pocket cradle in between uses, which zips up the battery. The problem with that is that they claim you can do that up to 4 times a day (so it's hard to understand how they figure 2 x 4 = 10, not 8)The headset cannot charge without the pebble-shaped adapter, so if you forget it you are 100% out of luck. You have two choices when not actively on the phone ... to leave the headset uncomfortably in your ear for the maximum 2 hours, then snap it into the charging cradle (during which time you are unable to use it); or to take the headset out of your ear between uses and carry it in the cradle (which by the way then makes it twice as heavy as the competing highly rated Plantronics Pro+ which is a whopping $45 less). If you do that you have to fish the thing out of your pocket or purse, stick your finger in a hole to pop the fussy headset out of the holder, and mount it in your ear, while the caller is probably going ""Hello? Hello? HELLO?"" If you're lucky the rubber earplug won't get caught and fall off like it did to me (Why? Because if you use the larger rubber plugs they don't fit into their OWN charger!!!) Then you have to find something to do with the cradle when it's not being used. Note that the hole for the speaker is exposed to pocket lint and other debris while it is in your pocket.The design is personal choice, I don't think it feels comfortable and there are absolutely no adjustments. The deal breaker for me is that is ONLY fits in your right ear. What were they thinking? It makes me wonder why Jabra would purposely exclude people who have limited hearing in the right ear, or possible a limitation to using a device in that ear.The controls are a bit bizarre. There really aren't any except for a multi-purpose button and a touch-sensitive pad to adjust volume. They depend primarily on voice command. The multi-function button could not have been placed in a worst spot, it is too easy to push and hang up on a call if you try to adjust the headset to fit your ear. The first time I tried using the headset I pushed the button and it started dialing someone I did NOT want to call despite the fact that I told the setup not to access my phone's directory. The volume slide pad is as bad, if you reach up to make the headset more comfortable you're likely to change the volume setting, not something that you may want to do during an important business call.Jabra thinks NFC is a great thing, and maybe it will be some day, but most people aren't using it and not every phone has it, and if they do you have to be sure you are using an expensive brand-specific battery. Fortunately the phone pairs quickly without using NFC.The killer? The selling price of $130. FOR A HEADSET? That's a healthy percentage of the cost of a phone itself. I can't see anything about this headset worth $130. And I am afraid to ask how much of that the customer is paying for the ornate and wasteful packaging that is hard to open. And in a giant leap backwards, there is no AVRCP and no mute button.PLEASE NOTE: Prior to 7/25/13 Amazon's description for this headset was completely wrong. The headset does NOT have a motion sensor, fold-out flip boom, nor a speaker that slides down to permit using it in either ear (it is strictly a right ear only device).

Once on the phone, the case looks sharp, and looks a lot more expensive than it actually was. The thing I like most about it is the material it's made from. It's got an ever-so-slight rubbery feel to it; enough to make it matte (to prevent the phone from slipping out of hands and off tables), but not enough to make it sticky and hard to get in and out of pockets. It feels very sturdy and seems like it will do a good job protecting the phone, although as I said, I've only had it for a week and have not had a chance to find out just how well it fairs in that area. It is raised around the edges in front, so that if you set the phone face-down, the screen will not touch the surface. I also like that there's a an opening in the back to show off the Apple logo.

I really didn't need an MP3 player as I usually carry a PDA with me as well, but the features on this phone were just too good to pass up. I considered a Motorola RAZR but saw a lot of complaints about battery life. Well, no problems here! I've previously been using a SE T616 which had superb battery life, and this phone is equally as good. Which is certainly important if you do plan to use it as a music player.First things first...entering phone numbers. So tedious on most phones, and something I always dread. Thankfully, the W600i came with software to sync with Outlook. It took me a little while to figure out the syncing software. When you hook the phone up to USB, it can go into phone mode or file mode and for some reason the software always tells me it can't find the phone if it is in file mode. So to sync, I had to put it in phone mode. Turns out file mode was used only for transferring MP3s. Still tells me it can't find the phone, yet the transfer did work! Sometimes when I plug it in, my computer won't see it without rebooting, which cost me a lot of time and aggravation trying to figure out as well. So somewhat annoying implementation here, but such a time saver, and something I've never had before at all with a phone, so it's hard to gripe. I usually don't bother to put appointments and tasks on my cell phone, but since they just sync with Outlook, now that's easy to do as well. This may not be a SmartPhone, but it could replace a PDA for casual users.The MP3 player is decent enough. Sound quality was much better than I expected. Then I tried the built-in FM radio. Wow, awesome reception here! The cord acts as an antennae so you have to be sure to unwind it for best results, but considering how far from the stations I am, I was quite impressed with how nice it sounded. Some simple equalizer settings, nothing special. Only gripe would be the lack of an external memory card, there's certainly room for one so it should have been added. I guess Sony's proprietary Memory Stick would be large to squeeze in, so rather than add a SD slot, they just left it out completely. Booo to that.Phone data features worked great. I got even better reception on the W600i than my T616 and now also have Edge. Had no problems using Bluetooth to connect up to my PDA and laptop, and speeds were pretty nice. The Media Net services worked fast and there were some nice demo services included as well. Not sure I will pay for these but definitely worth considering.Camera is better than most cell phone cameras I have used, but still nothing great. The pseudo-flash is at least an attempt to improve indoor shots but any real camera still beats the pants off it. You can even use the little flash-light as an SOS beacon if you get lost. ;-) Even better is the image import included with the PC software. Was nice to easily copy over GOOD photos to use for my contacts.To use the keypad, you have to swivel the back of the camera down. It makes a cool little sound and lights up, but it's not the easiest motion to do one-handed and will also make getting a decent playthrough case a lot harder than other phones. The buttons are easy to press though, an improvement over my old T616. There are also a couple buttons at the top of the screen that confused me as to their function (of course, I don't bother with manuals!) I did figure out that they were used when playing games in landscape mode. Neat idea. There were a couple bugs in the OS as well. When using voice dial, an misrecognized command results in a really weird and annoying sound coming from the phone. And the voice command symbols in the address book are very buggy...appearing and disappearing from the contacts that don't have them. Hopefully a phone firmware upgrade will fix these.This is the first cell phone I've had with a real speakerphone. You really can use it without having to hold it up to your ear...assuming you are someplace it won't disturb other users. You can play music through the speaker as well, and use those MP3s as alarms and phone sounds, so lots of things to play with here. For some reason a lot of the phone tones you can buy through Cingular are not available for this phone yet, but hopefully they will get those working soon. I also had trouble downloading a couple games I purchased.Some users have reported issues with using bluetooth headsets, particularly with voice control. I'm not a fan of having another device I have to charge all the time, so I prefer using a regular handfree. And this phone actually comes with one for free! The headphones double as a handsfree headset in addition to the FM antennae, so it's well worth carrying and using over a bluetooth headset, IMO.I was able to get both my PDA and my laptop to pair up with it and use it as a modem for internet connection, although my laptop was a bit flaky and did require a bluetooth upgrade and reboot to get it working. Great speed difference with the Edge network! According to Windows, I was getting 400Kbps, with my old phone it was usually around 100Kbps. The phone has a nice ""E"" symbol that tells you when you are on Edge, and ""G"" for regular GPRS. Even in my house out here in the country I am able to get Edge, which was a pleasant surprise. I haven't traveled much yet, but it looks like they already have pretty good coverage, and metro areas in particular shouldn't be an issue.So, this may not be the smallest, lightest phone out there. There are definitely some issues like the weird swivel design, voice dial bugs and lack of memory card support that may be cause for complaint. But if your priorities are a phone with great battery life, excellent reception, Edge and bluetooth, and easy to use, this one should definitely be at the top of your list. If you don't already have a portable MP3/FM player, I don't see how you could even consider anything else!

I ordered this product from a seller that was not Amazon itself. I got the item and it was obviously a counterfeit knockoff unit (packaging, quality, color). And it didn't work at all, and was cheap. Worth about $1 in materials and labor, not the $21+ that was charged for it. I immediately contacted Amazon (it was shipped through PRIME since the seller was using Amazon for fulfillment) and they processed the return and refunded my money. I then re-ordered from the exact same listing, but with Amazon LLC as the seller, and I got the real Apple deal. The cost was about 25 to 50 cents more than the other listing, came in 2 days through PRIME, and works great. It has worked with every 30-pin device I have tried, including a digital / analog guitar interface (iRiff), a credit card swipe device (ID Tech), and an automobile 30pin iPod cable in my VW (which charges, and plays music). So, make sure you get the real Apple deal on this, and not some knock-off. If you get a knock-off, complain to Amazon and send it back. You should not pay more than about $3-$5 for the knock-off sort. Amazon needs to police their sellers a lot more vigorously and not allow counterfeit items on Amazon.

However, once this 'novelty' wears off, you begin to see some problems.The resistive touchscreen is made from a thin, flexible plastic and is somewhat intermittent, so texting and dialing can be a chore (so much so that I ended up having to buy a stylus). Also, I found that it's prone to scratches, making the screen very diffucult to see in direct light.Another problem I found is bad build quality. It's not the worst I've ever come across, but is certainly far from the best. The phone feels very light, but at the same time very cheap and plasticy. The back plate is very difficult to replace and feels like it's going to shatter if you're too rough with it.So as mentioned, I got rid of this phone after only 6 months. I replaced it with an Alcatel of a similar spec and have had no problems with it at all.So feature wise, it's great. But in terms of usability it's awful.

Got with the black strap. So far it is working ok. There were some initial troubles in pairing this device with my phone via NFC. After several attempts, gave up on NFC pairing and went with blu tooth pairing. Blu tooth pairing is holding good till now. I have moved this watch away from the phone by significant distance and did not face any re-pairing type annoyances yet.The watch face is wider than the length by few mm. I went with this watch instead of Samsung gear because I have small hands and I thought this will fit better than Samsung gear. The Gear is longer and narrower than Sony SW2. This watch sits perfect on my hand with no constant sliding in any direction. I have to use the last hole on the strap though.I did not go with Samsung Gear because, as of now it will not work with my S4. I was also not keen on camera, extra cost and non-replaceable straps.The resolution on SW2 is decent, but Samsung Gear resolution is much better. I did not compare them side by side, but I am fine with Sony SW2 resolution. I purchased one app so far to enable me to dial numbers from the phone (just for coolness factor).The SW2 has one button on the side (like a regular watch) and it has 3 soft buttons (back, home and apps type button - still trying to figure this one out). You cannot press the soft buttons directly without pressing side button first. One the other side, there is a micro usb port to charge the watch.Sony SW2 Smart Connect Liveware is the software that need to be installed on the phone first. It happens when the watch is paired with phone. One can also download the s/w from google play store directly as well. Once the Liveware s/w is installed the watch comes to life. The liveware s/w gives options to installs apps on the watch directly. There are few to select from.The screen response is decent. It is not blazing fast, but generally responsive. I have installed Gmail, Messages, phone app, dial pad so far. They all work fine. The gmail app shows the gmail on your watch, messages shows texts on watch on so on. The dialpad allowed me to dial a number from the watch.My biggest complaint about this watch is its standby brightness. It is very low and it is difficult to read the time without pushing the side button. The black watch face (shown in some pictures) is absolutely not readable. I have switched to white background, which made it marginally better. Pushing the side button, brightens up the screen and makes the time very readable. I think this is a big miss for Sony SW2. The watch should always tell time clearly without the need to push additional buttons. Hopefully this will get fixed via s/w update in near future.My second issue is that there are no apps to allow multiple timezones to be displayed on the watch. As a watch linked to smartphone, I think this should have been made available out of the box. It should have allowed the travelers to switch timezones with a simple swipe action. This would have made it really useful for people traveling in multiple time zones regularly. I hope an app gets released by Sony or some third party to address this gap. There is a timezone app in the market, which allows to set a single timezone.I will keep testing and post any updates.Pros:- fits on my small hand- looks good- wide and flexible strap- Decent resolution- Some useful appsCons:- Standby display brightness is very low making it very difficult to tell time without pushing the side button- Cannot pair via NFC (may be it is a galaxy s4 issue)- Very few free apps. Most of the apps are at least 0.99- No hotmail app- Mail app listed by liveware is not compatible with the watch- No world clock app yet- Watch froze once so far, Had to reset (by pushing and holding power button for 15 second)Update : 10/4/2013The device is always paired over blu tooth. As some else pointed out, NFC is just for easier pairing. I think the issue was, when I tried pair it by NFC tapping, it did not download the liveware software. However when I paired it using blu tooth manually, it started downloading liveware software. I stand corrected on the NFC pairing. Thanks for pointing it out. However, theI am downgrading it 1 star because this device impacts the call quality on my blu tooth paired car phone system (honda odyssey). When this device is paired, the phone calls have become scratchy, barely audible over the other blu tooth paired headset.Update : 10/11/2013The blue tooth issue has been resolved after taking to an android expert. Basically on the phone I have to turn off sending Media Audio over BT, but only send Call Audio over BT. This resolved the call quality issues I had with Odyssey Handsfree Link BT.",3339,0 +3340,"Prefect for me + +I love this case! It is not bulky. It makes it easier for me to handle my phone.

But as you probably know, palm is not even trying to stay current, so when I went shopping for an integrative phone and PDA device I looked at all the contenders.1. To be fair, I had to check out the Centro. I wasn't fond of the device overall and especially the keyboard. Plus, Palm OS is dead so I felt that it was time to move on.2. Next up, the iPhone. This would be my first choice because it is so delicious. But no 3rd party apps are allowed and EDGE is slow!! I regrettably scratched it off my list.3. Windows mobile. A friend has one of these devices and I checked it out. It was like XP on a phone: with all the click here and go there interface that just seemed cumbersome on a handheld. Plus, WM is famous for requiring MORE processor speed. It does 3rd party apps but it's a slow and cumbersome interface, so that too got scratched off my list.3. Lastly, I looked into the infamous crackberry experience. I went to my local Sprint store and checked out the Pearl and Curve. They seemed nice in the hand, especially the Pearl. Small and solid, and the screen is easy to read. I did some additional homework, checking out the reviews on Youtube and Amazon, etc.I purchased the Pearl (in the color red, and with my current service on Sprint). I downloaded the bPhone theme and started to get to know this device.The home screen includes the big 3 BB apps: 1. email messages (which are pushed to the phone), 2. the calendar (with the next two events listed), and 3. the phone (with any missed calls listed). Additionally, upper left shows the Sprint bars and upper right the battery status. And you get the time and date as well. Overall, nice to look at and functional.There is a dedicated hard key for apps. For me, this is the critical area and I have not been dissapointed. Like the Palm (and iPhone) each app has its icon. These can be arranged to your liking (or hidden if you don't use them often).Within a couple days I was thinking I could almost leave my Palm TX as home and rely on my Pearl.I became concerned that there is not much memory on this phone: 50mb. But just like my palm, I could load 3rd party apps with the reader on the device and the data on the memory card. So I put my drug guide and MSDict, as well as, some cool stuff from google (maps, calendar, docs) and went about transferring my contacts and notes.Contacts can be transferred with MS Outlook but I don't have that so I used Vista's included MS Contacts. It was not perfect but it got the job done.Notes from your Palm can not be simply moved over to the BB. I have decided to put just my essential notes on the phone and the remaining on Google docs. Sprint is very fast and I can get to these quickly if needed.So it has been a week and I think I have fully converted from years of palm reliance to having an integrated phone and PDA with my Pearl. I love this little thing. The combination of keyboard, menu key, and trackball are just as easy to use as having a touch screen. And all touch screens end up with dead spots anyway, so it's a shortcoming that becomes frustrating.Any problems?Well, I did not like Suretype! so I set it to use multitap. As for multimedia, you can store your pics on a memory card (or get to Flickr quick enough) as well as music, video, and voice notes. The iPhone blows it away for multimedia but I don't really care. It's functional enough.There really should be more memory on the phone. Perhaps it's a trade off on the small size of the Pearl. I do have ~6-7mb free and it seems to run OK like this but others have reported their phone slowing down with less than 10mb of free space.The camera is only ""OK"". Great perhaps for sending pics in email but otherwise the picture quality is not very good (compared to my 5 megapix canon).Basic (mobile type) of internet experience is fine with me. It is better than Palm's blazer but very basic nonetheless. If this is important to you, wait until the Bold or iPhone 2 comes out.One last thing. Sprint Nav has an option to keep the screen on, but if you want to use google maps you'll need to download an older (unofficial) BB program called BBlight. It solved this issue for me.So that's my review. It's been a week and I can now leave my Palm TX at home, feeling comfortable that I ""got it all"" on my Pearl =)",3351,0 +3352,"Great and cheap + +I bought this battery for my iPad 2 and to a lesser degree to charge some other eletronics (a mobile hotspot, iPod shuffle, and a couple of other goodies). It works great. The .5A port will charge up anything design for it and the 1A port is enough that the iPad 2 will charge while on, where as anything using the regular USB spec of .5A and 5V will only charge the iPad if it is in standby/off.I drained my iPad down to about 42% charge and hooked it up to the 1A port overnight and by the morning the battery pack was drained and the iPad was back up to 91% charge. Most battery packs that claim 5000mAh claim to charge an iPad by about 50% and this is right in that range (49% to be technical). The iPad 2's battery is ~25W/hr battery, so that works out to something like 3,400mAh for half a charge at 3.7v with the battery pack at a claimed 5,000mAh at 3.7v. Something to keep in mind is there are inefficiencies in both converting the voltage from the battery pack from 3.7 to 5V, any possible voltage coversion on the iPad's side to go from 5V to whatever the actual charging voltage is (if there is a change, it might charge at 5V) and then inefficiencies in the internal battery charging (I think most batteries are around 80-90% efficient in charging, plus a voltage conversion efficiency of probably 80-90% again). So 3,400mAh stored in the iPad's battery works out close to a real 5,000mAh in the battery pack if you figure in inefficienies in the charging process. Also as I mentioned, other name brand battery packs that claim ~5,000mAh also only claim a 50% charge on an iPad.It takes about 6hrs to charge the battery pack from dead to max and it took somewhere less than 5hrs to drain itself completely charging the iPad. Its not going to charge your iPad as fast as a wall charger would, but it is going to be enough to run your iPad full tilt and up the charge a little bit while the battery pack lasts, or give you about half a charge if your iPad is sitting off/standby.The battery pack is small, easily palmable and light. It does not include a charger, but it does come with a USB to mini-USB cable to use with an existing USB charger. It takes 1A to charge, so a normal iPod or iPad charger or really any USB charger rated at 1A will do the job. It'll charge off of a computer's USB port as well, but I suspect it would take a lot longer with the .5A provided.I have not attempted to charge two devices at the same time to see if it can keep up with a full 1.5A of drain or not.Overall I was expecting the worst, but I've been pleasantly suprised. A great budget battery pack that delivers more or less what it states. My biggest knock are the battery charge and charge level LEDs. WAY too bright. They really light up a room at night with the lights off, and frankly probably burn more power than they should. Really LEDs don't use much power, but I still can't help thinking that I might have gotten another couple of % charge level on my iPad if the LEDs were much dimmer.Sorry for the long review, but there was little info on this item and I thought I'd fill in some details for potential buyers",3352,0 +3353,"Not unlocked + +This is deceiving.

I finally broke down, and I got a really good plan. All in all, I really like this phone. But I can't understand how Sprint is allowed to just nickel and dime me to death on this thing!For instance, lots of people are raving about the amazing voice command feature on this phone. What they aren't telling you is that this is NOT a feature of the phone. It's a service that you have to pay an extra $5 a month for from Sprint.I got free internet for the first 2 months. I decided to download some fun ringers and screensaver things. Now, this is the part I can't believe is legal (and for all I know all cell phones do this). They charge $2-3 for each ringtone or screensaver or whatever. Now, we're talking about 30 seconds of a song, a song you can download from napster for 99 cents (also a ripoff). But the incredible, hair on fire, insane part is that you don't own it. You RENT it. After 3 months, it "expires."Can you imagine? You don't ever own it, even though the prices are highway robbery.Oh, also, if you decide you don't want to pay $15 a month for worthless internet service (trust me...it's like time travel to 1994 waiting for your email to appear), you'd better cancel it quick. Because you can't cancel it immediately. Sprint makes you wait until the next billing cycle. Unless there's 3 or fewer days left. Then you have to wait until the NEXT billing cycle after that.These are the kind of things that consumer protection laws are written for. For all the RIAA's bluster about "intellectual property," I'm wondering why I have to buy songs I already own to use them as ring tones; and I don't get to keep them!One helpful feature on this phone is a memo recorder. Now, logically, I should be able to just record a song using this recorder to use as a ringtone, right? Wrong. It's impossible.Don't get me wrong, all in all I like the service. I got free PCS-to-PCS calling, so I can call my girlfriend for free. In general I like the plan. But, like, I downloaded Asteroids yesterday. I could have sworn it said the licence was unlimited. But when it got to my phone, it expires in a month!On top of that, the game is terrible, worse than the atari 2600 version. I'll admit I haven't tried, but I assume if I call Sprint and tell them I'm not satisfied with it (or the incredibly terrible, compressed, unlistenable version of "Back in Black" I downloaded), they'll tell me too bad.Which hardly seems fair. I'm forced to buy things sight unseen (they even launched a website just for games where if you're interested in buying something, you click "buy," and it then downloads the price to your phone. There's NO other way to find out the price!!!). I'm sorry, but this is unethical. They're just ripping off teenagers who don't know any better.I guess I don't get it. Why can't I upload my own songs, pictures, ringtones, games? Why does Sprint have a monopoly on my phone? I bought the phone, isn't it mine?Anyway, it sounds great, it works great, it's light and I love the screen and the ringtones that are included. I downloaded Tetris and solitaire and they work great. It's so small I can't believe it.I like it.

This was tested on Straight Talk on AT&T;'s network, with the correct MMSC settings.* Predictive texting only works for Spanish and another language which I assume is Portuguese.* Since MMS doesn't work, the only way to change the background is to take a picture or use an SD card to transfer it.Given the price, I would've rated this phone higher, but my Alcatel a510 was cheaper, and doesn't have these problems. I only switched to this one because I needed a phone that works on T-Mobile.",3373,0 +3374,"Good deal! + +It was cheap and came with everything like the screen protector and the pen. Plus, its really cute. I like it",3374,0 +3375,"I love this phone!!! + +I have had this phone for 5 months, and I have not had a single issue with it. It has great screen, and it is fast. I would never exchange this phone for an iPhone; iPhone sucks compared to this phone. Not only the screen is bigger, but it is also sturdy. You can drop it as many times as you want, and the screen will be like new. I have dropped it so many times at the parking lot over the five months, and I just have some scratches on the case but not on the screen. You do not need a screen protector with this phone. Most of the Apple bots I see with their cool iPhone have broken screen. And unlike iPhone, it supports Flash, so you can easily browse all the Flash websites.I have used this phone for everything: Skype, 4G hotspot (root required), GPS navigation, alarm clock, browsing websites, watching videos, checking email, messaging, and making phone calls. It has performed flawlessly. Sometimes, I feel that I do not really need my laptop anymore.The only thing that I wish was better is the battery life. On a regular battery, it will last about 7-12 hours on a single charge (regular use without heavy browsing). However, I have solved this problem by buying an extended LG battery. Now, it lasts for about 30 hours on a single charge of regular usage, and for about 8 hours if I use it as a non-stop 4G hotspot. So, extended battery is a must, or you will be annoyed because you are running out of charge. Buy only brand-name LG extended battery from Verizon (on sale for $24.99 for from time to time) for LG Revolution (Verizon's version of LG Esteem) or from MetroPCS (never seen it on sale there). Do not buy cheap Chinese extended batteries!!! I have tried; they are junk and last only slightly longer than a regular LG battery. If you plan on buying an extended battery, do not waste your money on a case, for it will not fit.I see that some people have random reboot issues. I have not experienced a single random reboot. I bought my phone from MetroPCS online, and I unsubscribed my lines from MetroExtras ads long time ago (you have to email them to do it). I am not sure whether there is a defective batch out there, or it is a glitch due to MetroExtras ads.It is a great phone, especially with the extended battery.",3375,0 +3376,"Keeps shutting down + +I have the same phone, got it on the first day it was out.

Instead, I received a battery with no manufacturer named and simply labeled ""M-S1 Compatible with BB 9000 & BB 9700 Bold"" (made in China). I'll report to Amazon and see if they force the seller to change the picture.",3378,0 +3379,"Mega Size, Mega Satisfaction + +Yes, it's a big smartphone. The biggest. However, I'm a firm believer that great things don't always come in small packages.I ordered the Samsung Galaxy Mega (international version) on a Friday afternoon, and it arrived courtesy of Amazon Prime Saturday morning. Prior to buying the Mega, I considered the Galaxy Note 3 or a US version of the Mega, but I'd have paid AT&T; more for both the Note III and US 5.3 version of the Mega than I did for this 6.3"" international device. I have an S4 and I'm a devoted Samsung mobile device fan (I also have the Note 8 and the Note 10.1), but I really wanted a tablet experience and to be able to use smartphone capabilities, too. The only reservation I had was the standard storage on the device, 8GB. Having had devices with larger storage capacities, I initially was concerned that at 8GB, with only 4GB or so usable after the Android operating system allocation, space would be an issue. Thankfully, it's not as feared and I'm comfortably able to use my apps I normally use, and make use of a 32GB SD card I already had for photos and videos I shoot, and my Audible.com audiobooks. (yes! The Audible app has built in the ability to store audiobooks on the SD card - why oh why can't more app developers do this? Wake up Amazon, your Kindle app should let us store books on the SD card too!) One thing to note: if you listen to music stored on your device, you'll need the 16GB version to accommodate that kind of storage.I swapped my microSIM from my AT&T; S4 right into this device and booted it up. Everything worked as it should, with the caveat that you won't get LTE 4G GSM carrier network frequencies in the US on an international unlocked Mega. I also found that in using it as I traveled between different cities and areas, I had to change a setting on the device to re-register it to use only AT&T;'s HSPA+ (3G) network because I found the automatic features that allow the device to switch between a wireless carrier frequencies would lock up, primarily because LTE (4G) is not present in my general area where I work or at home. Many people would find this a deal breaker, the inability for the international Mega to not use LTE frequencies on US GSM networks, however in my case, this didn't matter so much. What made me care less about the LTE service was a recent trip to London where I used my unlocked S4 on a local London provider and 3G is more the standard there. Coming from the States, I thought that using 3G was a step down and I'd notice a huge difference. The truth is, I truly didn't notice it at all. Thus, if you are concerned about getting an international device that can't use 4G/LTE US networks here, your concerns are noted, but experience will make this a non issue for you. If you have an AT&T; Microcell at home, you'll be pleased to know that the Mega handles that connection superbly and is more stable than the S4 in that regard. Connection to wifi broadband or other free networks works just like every other Samsung wifi capable device.The device's screen is bright and clear (even at half brightness, which is what I use) , even though the processors and the glass screen are not produced to the high flagship spec standard of the Samsung S4 or Notes II and III. The battery life is fantastic - far better than my S4 (where I had to be conserving of battery life, and turn off functions to save power) and even more surprising given the huge screen. I have yet in a day to tap it down to 40%. It loads webpages seamlessly as the S4, and the Jellybean o/s is smooth and doesn't hesitate. While the camera specs are more in line with the S3, you will never frame better pictures on a smaller screen as you do this one.Your friends will point and make fun of you when they see it and will want you to hold it up to your head, but honestly, who doesn't use a Bluetooth capability or headset with their smartphone to talk these days? You can laugh at them - they're carrying a smartphone AND a tablet seperately - you, in your wisdom, get to carry one device that will do it all. And what's better, you don't have to squint, you don't have to reach for another device to do something like play games, read a book, or stream video because your smartphone's screen is too small. Responding to emails on this smartphone is a dream - you can see the keys and you can actually type on it when it's in landscape mode.I love this device and I hope they keep making them - if you want the capabilities of a smartphone on a tablet, you won't be disappointed.",3379,0 +3380,"Not as described + +This is not an international version.

I highly recommend.",3389,0 +3390,"HTC Touch Pro - Very good for business + +I will admit to initially having some of the same frustration(s) with this device, to which others have alluded, and I, also, considered returning it within the thirty-day period allotted by Verizon. However, the capabilities of the HTC Touch Pro are extensive, and I found it difficult to fully appreciate everything the device can do in six weeks, let alone three or four.First, my hands and fingers are larger than average, but I've found it easy and quick to navigate using the touch-screens and buttons. I use the stylus from time-to-time, and my experience is that it is sometimes necessary to use it when objects are crowded close together on the touch-screen, but I found this to be an infrequent necessity. The keyboard is very good, though I initially found the odd placement of the letter ""M"" a little disconcerting, but I did eventually get used to its location. These are certainly things one can try out in any Verizon store, and don't have to be left to chance; the same with build-quality, which I've found to be very good, check it out to your own satisfaction.I use my Touch Pro mainly for business and am a heavy user of Microsoft Outlook Tasks, Calendar, and Contacts, so easy synchronizing these things with the same items on my desktop PC is very important to me; the HTC Touch Pro does this very well, though I'd have liked the Verizon Wireless Sync capability included with the basic data package, without having to pay extra for wireless sync. But I've gotten used to synchronizing by using the USB cable; it's quick and easy.Setting up the device to download my email from four different email accounts, and four different providers, was easy and quick. One just types in the email address and password (you only have to do this once at setup) for an account and the device software does most of the rest. I did not find it necessary to download any additional software for this. I just followed the directions in the user guide. For each account, you can choose from a variety of time-intervals for checking your email (5 min., 10 min., 15 min., 30 min., 1 hour, 2 hours, 4 hours, or once per day), or you may check manually in just seconds.At first, I did find the operating system seemed to slow down or freeze from time-to-time. Invariably, this was due to having too many programs running at once, a condition cured with two touches on the main screen (with two touches, you can close any one program or close all open programs). Also, I found that getting photos and music off the device and onto a memory card resulted in faster operation. The device has a lot of memory, relatively speaking, but keep in mind that it has a lot of programs and capability. Re-setting the device (soft-reset, that is) is also a solution, but probably should only be done with the same frequency as you do it on your desktop or laptop--which is, hopefully, infrequently. If the device completely freezes, of course, your choices may be limited to a re-set. You may find, as I did, that once you learn how to get around in the device, moving more efficiently between and among its functions and programs, the incidence of freezing will drop to zero.This is a great device for business, though the 3D TouchFLO interface (an I-Phone-like experience) seems fun to use and may be easier for some to navigate to more frequently used functions; I don't use this interface much, preferring the--perhaps more boring--""TODAY screen"" interface and the full complement of functions available through menu choices. In any case, I found there are a number of ways of accomplishing typical tasks, some easier and quicker than others. For instance, text messaging, of which I do a lot with my daughter, is as easily accessible as it is for a regular cell phone; just three or four quick touches will get you there with the Touch Pro. For receiving a text message, a notification link takes you to the read/reply screen with only one touch.In the end I've reacted positively to this device, especially for business. And I very much like the familiar ""Windows"" look and feel. Among those things for which I have less appreciation are: Cost (it's a pricey phone from Verizon); the highly polished, piano-black finish, is easily smudged with fingerprints; there is an atypically long delay in the phone ringing when a call comes in--the person calling will hear five rings while you will have heard only two--even if you're in the same room. Incidentally, in the event you plan to get your device from a non-Verizon source, you might want to check with Verizon to see if you might be by-passing some benefit (like ""new-every-two"" or a credit on a new phone when your plan expires--just a thought).",3390,0 +3391,"Awesome product! + +Purchased this for my mother and it works great!

So, I held off reviewing it until some time passed. I did notice that it sold for $10.00 less than on the Apple site. I've been a mechanical engineer for 20+ years and imho, the case is built very well. Material is the right thickness, no problems taking the case on or off, feels good in your hand and protects the phone. I've dropped my iPhone numerous times and the case stayed on and the phone was not damaged. I compared the pictures of the case displayed on Amazon and Apple and the only difference I noticed is a slightly angled parting line around the "incase" name vs. a straight one showed in the pics.

I've been using the S3 for several days now and have decided that despite its gorgeous display (which comes with a much shorter battery life), processing power, and innovative features and user interface, it does not do well what I consider to be the primary purpose of a phone: allow you talk and people at both ends be able to hear your voice clearly. The microphone/speaker on the S3 is clearly inferior to the my old Motorola Droid X. People say my voice has a mechanical muffled quality, and their voices to me have a fuzzy, rasping quality. I've switched phones with my daughter, who owns an iPhone, and I've listened to her, and I can verify what others say about how my voice sounds speaking into the S3. I'm sorry to say that the S3 is going back to Verizon tomorrow while I'm still within my 14 trial period.

This was an easy transition and not too much fuss.",3403,0 +3404,"Good phone, but shortcomings in maps and music apps + +While most critiques about the Lumia 920 keep talking ad nauseum about the size, weight and lack of apps, I wonder how many of these reviewers are actually spending time with the phone to see how it adds value in everyday situations. For example, I use my phone primarily to find my way around town, and for listening to a lot of music. I think the Lumia 920 is the most high quality and gorgeous looking mobile device ever made, and I actually love the size and weight -- it's a joy to hold and use. That said, I found the Windows Phone 8 OS lacking in features I've so far taken for granted on other phones. For me, the following inadequacies mar what could otherwise be a great phone,1) Nokia Maps needs to have more data and be more polymorphic. I could type the name of a place in the ""To:"" field in Google Maps, and it will most likely find the place and give me directions. This is not the case on the Windows Phone. For example, in San Francisco, try typing ""The Sycamore"" (a popular bar in the Mission District).2) Nokia Maps mustn't be a world unto itself. When I click on an address in an E-mail, I'm not sure why it opens in ""Windows Maps"". This is far inferior to Nokia Maps (it has no public transit directions), and I have no way of changing the default application to open addresses.3) Nokia Maps and Transit must be consolidated -- accessing two different apps to find directions makes no sense at all.4) Nokia Maps (or Navigator) must provide an option to access alternate routes. We're given only one route for driving (or walking) but I'm sure a lot of the time, the user wants to use an alternate freeway (or road).5) Xbox Music is very unimpressive as a native music player. There's no way to rewind/forward elegantly (a slider here would be great, I can't go back to holding down buttons!). The Nokia Music app doesn't even have rewind/forward capability.6) Given that the Lumia has a gorgeous big screen, it's a pity that I can't see my album art in full screen -- in the player, or when my screen is locked. Apparently the album art only loads on the lock screen if you buy the songs from XBox music. It doesn't work even if you update the album art in Windows Media player.7) The music streaming options are very limited for the Windows Phone 8. SkyMusic and SkyDrive are quite lacking when compared to Amazon Cloud player or Google Play. SkyDrive doesn't even run as a background app, and stops playing music when you go back to the home screen!",3404,0 +3405,"2nd worst cell phone I've owned + +well, the worst was LG Chocolate basic phone, following close behind is this poorly made device.

Both of our devices collected dust behind the glass, impossible to clean; mine collected much faster than hers, possibly because I kept the phone mostly in the pocket, where she had hers in the purse. And oh boy, did it crash all the time, try to use the navigation for any significant period of time will be greeted by a guaranteed crash.

This device seems to be more stable but there are a few things that I have observed that I am not very impressed with and they are as follows:1) Battery life seem to be relativly poor, with my usage I need to charge it in the middle of the day or I run out of juice2) The wireless functions seem to be limited in the sense that it is difficult to browse multiple networks and select easily and I am not sure if it is Mobile 5.0 or the phone design.3) The OS seems sluggesh especially if you are recieiving a message of syncing to your PC. (the 6315 didn't have that latency issue)4) The stylist is small and feels slightish5) The Battery cover is cheap and light.

WHAT A DISAPPOINTMENT ! The abilities are nice, BUT the keyboard is SO SMALL an elf would have issues with it, there is no onscreen keyboard so sending a text, even a short one takes A LOT OF EFFORT. The keys often respond inconsistently, not reacting or typing a letter 3 x. The battery life is REALLY SHORT...it makes my previous LG ENV3 look like a tech miracle...and I was really happy with that phone, I would rate it with 5 stars.

Google is not so bad, but giving them all your contact and appointment information can cause some concern. I loved my PALM software, but this phone wont work with.

I just wish they would have continued to make some handhelds. I have been a loyal Palm user for over 10 years and have never been disappointed but this phone is AWFUL ! I saw similiar reviews advising me against buying this phone, but I thought, well, i've been using Palm forever and I love them so if I am determined to love this phone, i'm sure I will figure out the quirks. I kept telling myself I would figure it out, i'm pretty tech-savvy, but the bottom line is I like it less each day and would give anything to go back and make a different buying choice. I don't think I will ever buy a PALM ANYTHING again...too bad the company doesnt value its loyal customers more than selling them an over-priced piece of unworkable phone.

It understands this, as long as your names aren't too close in how they sound.

The Jabra Stereo Earbuds fulfilled all of the above requirements.The sound is very clear for both the music and talking on the phone. My only complaint is that the MP3s are too loud, even on the lowest setting on my phone (it's pretty quiet if I'm playing it through the speakerphones on my phone). I think it's due to the distribution of the earbuds (notice how the earbuds are irregular shaped - it funnels the sound out of the end of the earbuds).Otherwise, I get clear sound through with this headset, and I'm very happy with it.Follow up: I accidentally broke the shirt clip on the phone.

The case held up well, with the exception of being peppered with tons of chew marks.It should also be noted that the raised edges of the case-design kept my dog's teeth from harming the screen. This design has also protected the glass countless times when I've dropped the phone on the sidewalk, etc.And lastly, the included belt clip-mechanism is awesome. I've busted so many clips by barely brushing up against something, but this clip simply won't break.

Used it all last weekend in Detroit Suburbs and it worked flawlessly.

I do not like clutter or searching redundantly for apps/options and the Nokia Lumia 900 just absolutely WORKS for me! I love the voice command controls and how freaking amazing the voice recognition software works.This is my first smartphone with Windows Mobile OS and I can say I am a fan of it now and am eagerly anticipating the release of 8 and hope it is slated for release via update to the Nokia Lumia 900.I have the black one and my wife has the white one and they look awesome....kind of wish I had got the white one also it looks sweet.Oh and BTW, thank-you to NOKIA for stepping up to the plate with the data issue that was quickly addressed and updated via software fix. I mean, I never saw the problem because there is no LTE available where I live yet (coming in 2013 ;-))and I bought the phones after all the issues were resolved and still get the $100.00 credit on EACH phone as well as having got the $100.00 in accessories for each phone from AT&T.; All that and $99.00 for each phone.So take it as you see it but this is my 2 cents and I say the phone rocks and I am a fan.EDIT: Forgot to mention the cameras.

I am only interested in voice calls and thus 8100 has been fine. The problem is that this carrier does not have sufficient and consistent signal strength of 2G in my area, thus missing many calls at home.I decided to give H2O wireless a try: bought unlocked Nokia c2-01 (2G/3G) from Amazon, bought a H2O SIM card at BestBuy, then activated a pay-as-you-go plan ($10) online. The activation process is reasonably simple and the signal strength is good (because it is presumably using the AT&T; network).Now, I was ready to transfer my mobile number to H2O. The process was a little bit more complicated. This time, I bought SIM from Amazon for 10 cents. The online form to transfer the number requires a few more pieces of information, like the IMEI number from the cell phone and the Airtime PIN. I did not know what the Airtime PIN is. So, I contacted the customer support, which was not successful (did not get through to the live agent). The live chat did not work either. Finally, I sent an email, which was answered within a few hours. It turns out that this field is optional (the number-transfer form does not say so). Within an hour or two after submitting the form online (I chose a monthly plan), my current phone stopped working (SIM no longer functional). A good sign. There is no instruction for the next steps. After trial and errors, I clicked ""Recharge"" then ""Do you need a PIN"" on the online menu and searched my mobile number. I managed to go through the process and the phone/SIM was activated.

If that isn't enough, your paid 2GB also disappears, and they start charging you by the MB, even though you have disabled automatic top-up. (When you have automatic top-up disabled your account is supposed to be suspended if it gets down to 100MB of data). Instead they see fit to inundate your account with extra fees, charging you by the MB. If I had thought to check Amazon reviews before I signed up for this service I could have saved myself lots of time and aggravation. Save yourself the aggravation, find a better service.Update: We were able to get the 8 additional charges credited back to our charge card. We discovered that although we paid $3.99 for the data rollover service, only the ""free"" data up to 500mb can be rolled over. Then we tried to cancel our accounts. After reading the FAQ for how to do that, we located the option in our account and proceeded, after we choose the confirm deletion option, we got a text block that said we would have to call customer service to cancel our account. Meanwhile, in order not to be charged for another month we thought we would downgrade to the ""free"" plan. After going through the motions, we again got a text block that said we would have to call a CSR to downgrade our plan. We called the 1-888 number. We got an automated prompt to leave our name and number, and they would return our call. We GOT an automated call the next day that said to press 1 for a CSR. We pressed 1 and was on hold for 15-17 minutes, at which point we again got the automated prompt to leave our name and number. Naturally the only thing they have managed to do so far is to charge us for another month. My husband says its like the Hotel California, you can check out but you can never leave.",3439,0 +3440,"Not too bad + +Decent for the price and the purpose that I bought it for. Bought it for a friend who has a prepaid cell phone that she could easily put the sim card in. Easily fits her needs for texting and calling.

So pretty much happy with the purchase",3440,0 +3441,"Good Batteries - Won't Charge in Phone + +These batteries work well, hold a charge well and last at least as long as the OEM battery. The included battery charger works perfectly for the standard battery and I also use it for the extended battery. The batteries do not require a different battery door as they are the same size as the OEM battery. Only downside is that the batteries cannot be charged inside the phone, only in the external charger. Not a deal breaker, but important to know.",3441,0 +3442,"Wow! + +About a year and a half ago I was able to get an Android without a contract. It was the Samsung Intercept, also through Virgin Mobile, and it was not a good experience. I rode it out as long as humanly possible but I could not depend on the phone to get a text or a call, and the last missed call from the school nurse told me it was time for a new phone. (Not literally a missed call, but you can't get a call if the phone won't turn on.) This time I wanted to be sure I got a phone that worked without spending many hundreds of dollars, so I did a lot of research. I looked into different no-contract plans and phones and I finally decided to stay with Virgin Mobile. They aren't great but neither are the options, we've talked to a few, and my daughter has Boost...they are the same, to me, as Virgin Mobile. I decided to give this phone a shot. I am so glad I did.I have only had this phone a short time but I am very impressed. I charged and activated my phone. Since I already had an Android, I signed in to Google and with that came my contacts, calendar, and the Play store with all my apps. I went down the list, loaded the ones I wanted to keep, picked a few new ones, and the downloading began. They came across so quickly I was sure there were some missing, but there were not. The screen was crystal clear and responded perfectly. I organized my apps on to my pages and played with the phone for days. I tried streaming music with I Heart Radio and my Amazon MP3 music. I tried out a personal assistant app with voice recognition. I went through live wallpapers. I played games. All worked smoothly, no delays, not a peep of complaints about memory. Some things I took off, but the majority stayed. I love some of the widgets. SoundHound is my favorite because I hate not knowing what the new song playing is...now I know!The Android keyboard is fine, I have big fingers and little frustration. The fun is the Swype keyboard, where you touch the first letter but then don't pick your finger up until you finish tracing the word. It works so much better than I thought it would and I actually prefer it. The voice recognition is better than I thought, though I would like to see it do a little more.Overall this phone is easy on the wallet, easy to use, a pleasure to own, and a nice example of an Android. If you are in the market for this type of phone, I don't think you'd be disappointed with the Elite.Update:It is nine months later. I still love this phone. I talk, take pictures, text, play games, use other apps. I use it as my alarm clock plugged in by my bed five days a week. I use the GPS feature. I had a basic case and screen protector on it, dropped it without knowing it, and dragged it under my shopping cart for a bit. It has a small scratch on the edge of the phone, nothing else wrong. It never locks up on me, works quickly even loaded with apps and photos, and has been very dependable. The only complaint I have is the battery life. It will last maybe half the day, depending on how much you use it. Even without using it, just having it with me, it will not last the whole day. This hasn't been a problem and I have enough places to plug it in so that it doesn't die, but for somebody who depends on battery life and does not have the opportunity to plug in, this phone will fall a little short. We are going to Disney soon and I will be getting a portable battery to charge my phone during the day, but I do know my phone will still get me though!",3442,0 +3443,"Good Idea but it didnt come with a straw + +How am I supposed to dring the juice out of this thing when there isnt a straw taped to the side of the pack?",3443,1 +3444,"Don't waste your money + +First, you can get this for less than half of the currently listed price. Second, it's not worth even that. The volume control is only useful if you want to lower it. It doesn't even get as loud as the original phone volume with the control set at the highest level. The control is also placed too high on the cord near the headset. The plug makes lots of static in the jack if I bump it at all. The mute button is more than useless. There's no way to tell if you have it off or on until the person on the other line says, ""hey, are you still there...hello!"" Even with it off, the other person said, ""You sound so far away.

I have the regular charger at work, the AAA battery charger in my purse and the treo charger at home.I have seen reviews about the headset not staying in the charger, and I have to say I don't have that problem. I plug it in when I get to work and it glows red until it is charged. I tried a test while it was charging by turning it upside down and shaking it and moving it around and it stayed red and never fell out of the charger.I also saw reviews where people thought it would fall out of the charger while they were carrying it in their pocket. I took the headset while it was in the charger and turned it upside down and shook it up and down and also shook it back and forth while letting it hit my fingers to try to shake it loose. The only time it came out is when I shook it up and down as hard and fast as I could about 15x. The only thing I can think of is that they aren't pressing the headset completely into the charger.Hope this helps you in making your decision about this headset.",3451,0 +3452,"Go ahead buy this product + +I bought this case for my Samsung Focus S (AT&T;) windows phone. It is a very good product. Here is what I have noticed so far:1. The case fits very snugly on the phone. No issues.2. All camera switches are easily reachable and usable. No issues.3. 100% of the phones screen is visible. Nothing is hidden by the case. No issues.4. If the phone falls on its back, side, top, corner or bottom, the case will certainly provide support. Its thinkness is about 1mm. So if the phone falls flat on its face but the glass does not touch any object, the case shoudl still provide some support. So it is adequate.5. The case provides a reasonable grip. Much better than the naked phone but still sleek and comfortable.I think the case is good and I recommend it for the above phone.",3452,0 +3453,"Great Design...Bass Lacking + +I picked these up after I accidentally broke my pair of A-Jays Ones, which I loved. I figured if I was going to buy another pair, it might as well have the iPhone mic built in. I wound up returning them and going for another pair of the Ones. Here's the rundown...THE GOODThe Fours have the same terrific design as the Ones, and the mic/control is terrific. The buttons are easy to find and the different shapes make them easy to differentiate. The whole setup really looks like these should be what come with the iPhone instead of Apple's stock headset. I didn't really care about the adapters that came with the Twos and Threes, so the fact that they weren't included here didn't really bother me.THE BADAfter unpacking what I thought was going to be the perfect pair of headphones, I put them on and was immediately disappointed in the lack of bass. My Ones had great bass. It was strong, but not overwhelming. The bass coming out of the Fours is almost nonexistent. I had read some other reviews saying that the phones were tuned to amplify voice frequencies, but there really is a massive drop-off in bass from the Ones, and it was something I couldn't get past. It unfortunately reminded me of listening to my laptop speakers. I even tried two pairs to make sure that I didn't get a bad set.THE BOTTOM LINEPersonally I prefer the Ones. If they could make a set of headphones that had the sound quality of the Ones and the features of the Fours, I would be a very happy camper. In the mean time though, I'll settle for my Ones for music and my Bluetooth for calls.",3453,0 +3454,"Does NOT work with B&N Nook Color + +my Nook Color freaked out when this was plugged in. I have used other charging sources before without problem, but when this was plugged in it immediately started opening and closing windows as if I was rolling my face over the screen.

Replacement charger was sent, and it has the exact same problem as the original. When the charger was on my phone it flipped through screens and re-dialed a recent call.

My unlocked iPhone works perfectly with the modified card.",3457,0 +3458,"First smart phone and I LOVE it! + +I was using the crappy Motorola Theory before (Yuk!) I'm a nursing student and my instructors post important documents/announcements on the school website and texting us when we have to meet at the hospital so when I started searching for a phone I knew I NEEDED one that I could forward my school email to, access the school's websites (the full page, not the terrible mobile version,) plus I was in the market for a recorder to record lectures. After doing EXTENSIVE research on multiple sites I bought the Kyocera Hydro on December 8, 2012. It is now 3/18/2013 and I'm still quite happy with my Hydro!BODY: The body of the phone itself is sleek, black, with a rough texture on the back cover. It is also (like every other cell phone) SLIPPERY so buy a cover/case! I will never understand all the reviews I read before buying that complained about the way the phone LOOKS. Who gives a flying crap when the majority of the original phone will be covered?! I bought a nice bright rubbery green cover and the phone is well protected. The Screen is a nice size, bright and colorful. I can see plenty when visiting websites and it is always responsive.STURDINESS: The phone is very sturdy. The plastic doesn't feel flimsy or cheap. The back cover locks securely, has never come undone on it's own or anything like that and it doesn't feel too light or fragile (not too heavy either) I've dropped it a few times and it has weathered all my clumsiness with good cheer. Yes I have experimentally dunked it in water (a few times!) after being OCD about making sure the back cover and usb port were covered, and the phone is perfectly fine. It amazed my friends, though at first they thought I had lost my mind. I have also used it in the rain while walking across campus and I use it in the shower everyday to listen to music. Yay!CALLS/SPEAKER QUALITY: I have never had a problem with anyone hearing me during calls and I always hear them loud and clear. The speaker phone is lovely and no one has complained or even seemed to notice if I switch between normal and speaker (On an old phone I had, the speaker phone sounded staticky.) During calls the screen and white buttons on the front cycle through lighting up and turning off, saving battery life yet still allowing access to the dial pad/speakerphone buttons onscreen and the other apps/features on the phone. Since this is my first smart phone I was uneasy the 1st time I tried ending a call by closing the app only to realize I could still hear the other person. Yes you can just hit ""End call"" but I prefer a physical button. (I mean, what if I want to talk badly about them as soon as I hang up?) Just kidding! This was easily remedied by going into System Settings/Accessibility/ and choosing ""Power button ends calls.""Music plays loud and clear through both headphones and speaker phone and I think it's nice that if I'm listening to music through headphones and they accidentally pull out of the jack, the music will not continue to play out loud. Might not seem like a big deal but it saves you some embarrassment when listening in the library or before a test in a quiet class room. I have no real complaints about the Google Play Music App that comes with the phone except sometimes it'll start to play a song and it sounds all fuzzy. I just press back and then forward to restart the song and it plays fine. Weird, but doesn't happen often.TEXT MESSAGING/MAIL: I was worried to hear that companies are shifting away from physical keyboards since I didn't have a great experience with my last touch screen phone (Samsung Solstice.) I'm a woman and even with my small hands everything ended up misspelled but the Hydro squashed all those fears.I love the SWYPE keyboard that comes with the phone, very neat. Doesn't take long to get used to (look for demo vids on Youtube.) I DO hate the way messaging displays the message I'm composing: I send long texts and no matter how long it is, your message is scrunched into this tiny box at the bottom (with the rest of the conversation shown above) and isn't fully displayed at ""real size"" until you send it (WTF?) so you have to scroll back through and carefully proofread before sending. It does improve when turning the phone on it's side to type, you see the whole thing.CAMERA: I've used the camera to take quick shots to post on facebook. It could be user error but I dislike how every pic seems to come out looking dull and dark, and flash seems to make no difference at least when it's displayed on the phone. When you first take a pic it looks fine but once it moves to the ""Gallery"" it seems to go dull and dark. BUT!: I might need to play with it more because the pics I posted on facebook look fine and true to their original colors(?)MISC: The alarm is great, easy to set up and I haven't run into a limit for how many you can have. I have 5 right now.You can press the little microphone icon to enter text or search terms by speaking into the phone and I AM IMPRESSED. I have even searched for complex medical terms while doing homework and it has ""heard"" me accurately every time!WIFI: I'm able to pick up a signal everywhere so far and I've had data and calls (clear) go through even with only the tiniest bar showing (of course it's slower.) I don't like that if I turn off the WIFI manually in Settings the phone will ""restart,"" turning off and turning back on again. That might just be how these phones work and it only takes a few seconds but it's annoying. Happens rarely though; I only turn it off when the phone is determined to use the weak WIFI signal nearby and I tire of waiting for it to give up and switch to the Boost network.BATTERY LIFE: Smart phones usually eat batteries for breakfast. The Hydro isn't bad though; it comes with an Eco Mode app which is helpful and you can search for lots of other power-saving apps. I can go about 1 full day without charging it if I don't use the phone AT ALL. With normal use (music, checking email, surf a little internet) I charge it once a day. I can record a 5 hour lecture and it doesn't use much battery. I have gotten to school an hour before lecture, with only 25% battery, hooked it up to my laptop (the usb cord comes with the phone) and managed to get it up to around 40-50% charged in 20-30 minutes. Biggest tip: Turn off Facebook's auto updating/ sync. It's a battery killer! The phone shows you in Settings which apps have been using the most battery in the past, what's running now etc.Sorry it's so long but these were some of the concerns I had and couldn't find the answers to when I was searching.",3458,0 +3459,"Beautiful Product + +This product is great for larger phones like the GS4. It adds almost no extra size to an already nearly unmanageable phone in an average hand. It really is a crystal clear piece of glass with perfect optics. I didn't notice any change in the image quality of the GS4 screen after adding the Spigen Screen Protector. I haven't noticed any change in the sensitivity of the touchscreen either. Everything works as it did without the product. And the tempered glass really does work. I dropped the phone from about 4 ft face first onto tile and I assume the product was the reason the screen didnt shatter as I have seen on countless youtube durability test videos.My issue seems to be a degradation of the adhesive. The only area where I am having this issue is on the right side of the phone. It has been about 5 days now and after the second day the screen protector started to have air bubbles forming underneath. They are growing by day and seem to be slowly encompassing the right side of the device. The real issue here is that dust is starting to find its way into the voids being formed and is compounding the issue. The air bubbles are growing quicker and quicker.The fact that its just the right side of the device that is failing may indicate I received a flawed screen protector but for $35 I would expect more. If this product did stay intact on the phone I would certainly give it 5 stars but since it is only a matter of time before the adhesive completely fails I have to consider it a failed screen protector.Update: Spigen contacted me regarding my adhesive problems and sent me a replacement.

Alternatively you can try to find a nice customer service rep at a ""real"" store, they'll do it for you. It's not one of their phones so some of their reps might say no (but it is your service plan, so they usually say yes).As far as the startup language goes, the instructions that came with my phone said to insert the SIM card first, prior to doing anything else to have it come up in English instead of German. I noticed that afterwards but knew enough German to find the right setting. If you don't have a year or two to study another language, this is a goog time to try Google translate...",3462,0 +3463,"Perfect for the Right User + +I bought this phone the day it launched, and as someone who has used Android phones since the launch of the G1, I can say that I am very pleased.If you are considering buying this phone, it is certainly because of the keyboard. Let me assure you, you will not be disappointed. It is the best keyboard I've used on any phone, and I have tried many. It's comfortable and spacious, and the keys are easy to identify and make a satisfying click when pressed. Complete with a dedicated number row (lacking on Blackberry phones and most Android devices), it's just fantastic.The phone is built like a tank. I don't use a case or screen protector, and neither feels needed. While I have read reports of poor battery life, I can attest that with LTE (which is astonishingly fast), push email on two accounts, and lots of texting and emailing throughout the day, I have no problem at all making it through a full day with about 40% remaining.The tradeoff to the wonderful keyboard is that the phone is rather bulky. It is, however, svelte for a slider-keyboard phone. Another tradeoff is the screen. It will display sharp, crisp images at rest, but any motion on the screen is extremely blurry, and it lacks the vivid colors of the iPhone or Galaxy Nexus. Still, it's perfectly fine. For reading emails and texts, and the occasional website, it's great. If you're someone who watches a lot of video on your phone, you should probably look elsewhere. Likewise, if you're searching for a great phone camera, you won't find it here. The 8 megapixel camera on the phone is fine for the occasional snapshot, and I've gotten some very nice images out of it, but it pales in comparison to even the iPhone 4. My EVO Shift had a better camera.Long story short, this is *not* a multimedia phone. It is a communication device, and function is absolutely placed above form. If you have to have the best keyboard phone on the market, look no further. If you *don't* want a keyboard, you're better off with something like the ReZound or iPhone.",3463,0 +3464,"Works perfectly with Kindle Fire + +Best priced replacement charger for Kindle Fire.

I am currently a Nokia 6820 owner and I was I was expecting a slick phone with a lot of ease of use, and instead all I got was a brick of a phone with minimal features.Cons:- This phone is huge! It looks like you took a cordless phone and were carrying that around as your cell phone. To give you an image you could hold up a croissant to your ear and it would be smaller than this phone, and look less silly!:)- Speakerphone only works when the clamshell is open. When I am driving down the road, I like to put my phone into speaker mode. In order to do that you have to open up the clamshell which is a real drag, since it will only waste battery power to display the screen to run the speaker.- No thumb joystick. On the 6820, one of the best things about the phone is the ability to quickly navigate with the thumb joystick. That has been eliminated on this phone.- Keyboard is ok, but I type faster on the 6820. Given the large size of the 9500 you need to balance the phone more to type. If you are a hunt and peck typer this may be ok for you, but if you are used to typing up a quick reply in less than 10 seconds this is not the phone for you.- Can't check email from the main display. Once again in order to look at email you have to open the clamshell. You should be able to look at emails from the outside of the phone.- No easy PDF viewer.Pros-+ 128MB Memory Card+ Word, Excel, Powerpoint viewer, but it doesn't have the pdf capability that I could find.+ Sound quality of the phone and the speaker phone are up to Nokia standards.I had high hopes for this phone, but it does not deserve the Nokia name.Soren",3471,0 +3472,"Good Phone.... + +My picture messaging was not working at first and the carrier I which too claim the phone did not support their service!!

Sure enough, I enjoyed the phone, though not as slick as the iPhone, the Android Operating System was a refreshing experience. This honeymoon lasted about one month, and then couldn't stand the phone. The battery drain was just too much, then people told me, root it!!! That's the way to go! Samsung's TouchWiz interface is a battery killer and is clunky. Okay. I rooted the phone and installed basic Google apps. Okay battery life did greatly improve and I was happy again. Until I realized that I had installed a ROM that was supported by a Community of brilliant people, I must say, but I was a BETA tester!!! I couldn't take the crashes, and basic functionality bugs... So I went back to the iPhone because even though I was sick of it, it at least lasted me half the day.I bought the BlackBerry Z10 and haven't looked back, I haven't been this excited about a phone since the first iPhone, when I switched from a Nokia. It was night and day, and that's how I feel right now. Going from Galaxy and iPhone to a BlackBerry is literally night and day. Incredible battery life (up to a day and a half of intensive use before a charge), true multi tasking.. this is truly amazing. I remember when the Apple introduced the multi app function, but was it really multi tasking? Clearly not, currently you cannot go to Youtube, listen your your favorite mix and reply to a text, or go to Facebook. The minute you leave YouTube, the music stops... That's not the case in the Z10, you can navigate the entire phone, open any app, and the music/video is still playing. True multitasking.Awesome phone, really powerful operating system.

The F6 works ONLY on the T-Mobile/MetroPcs network. The MetroPcs webstore has the lowest price.The tiny amount of internal memory for apps requires you to install a 16gb or 32gb micro SD memory card and select it as the default storage location. Your music and photos should be stored on the micro SD memory card, saving space in the tiny internal memory for apps.The lack of memory for installing apps is not a problem unless you plan to install large games or a dozen large apps. A few apps, such as Netflix and Spotify, can be moved to the micro SD card. Plan to spend about $30 for a 32gb microSD card to make the F6 useful for storing music, videos and photos.The LG F6 provides good internet service ONLY if your town has high speed 4G data speeds which you can verify by entering your home address on the coverage map on the MetroPcs website. About half of American homes are reached by the T-Mobile/MetroPCS 4G network.The camera provides adequate quality photos in bright sunlight but is not very good indoors using flash.

It's also thinner than the otterbox cover, which means less shock absorption, And gaps aside, it doesn't fit as snugly as the original skin does, which means it's much less water resistant than the Otterbox skin.

All in all, it's perfectly fine -- but it could be better!First, the small foam earbud is removable and replaceable. That would seem to be an advantage! However, on my first day of use, the earbud fell off when I was putting it into my pocket, and I was already out one. I don't know how costly they are to replace, but you'd hope that they would somehow ""lock"" on rather than falling off so easily.Second, as others have pointed out, the on/off button is very difficult to press. I don't think it's feasible to press it while it's on your ear: it's small, and takes quite a bit of pressure.Third: it folds. That might also seem like a nice feature, but I found it took an extra second when removing it from my pocket -- while a call was coming in -- and I often missed the call as a result. The benefit of folding, is that it makes it a bit smaller to put away, and makes it easier to position on both your right and left ear; but given the extra second, the benefit doesn't outweigh the lost calls.Ultimately, I decided to return this headset because there are better ones out there.",3500,1 +3501,"NOT SOLID COLOR: SPARKLY/GLITTERY + +It's a great quality case for a good price.

What happens is google navigation runs in the background and has preloaded the maps it needs onto the built in storage or sd card. You will still hear the voice navigation when talking on the phone so you won't miss any turns but it does not prevent you from making a call as suggested. In fact it works very seemlessly and performs well. Once you hang up the phone it goes right back to navigation and never misses a beat. Its one of the nice features they built into google navigation and one of the reasons this phone (or any android phone running os 1.6 and above) and the android platform are worth their weight in gold.I have since sold my tomtom navigation unit and that in itself has paid for the price of the phone.

I had the Case-Mate Black Signature Flip which is a decent case with an obvious flaw. The flap does not fold all the way back which caused typing with two hands to be virtually impossible. The other issue is that the case must be open in order to charge the phone. The second case was the SPIGEN SGP iPhone 5 Case Leather Flip [Argos]. That case was so poorly made that the flip cover detached from the main case. Very poorly made with cheap feeling leather. Like the former, the case must be open to charge the phone. Now to the Magia Leather Wallet. This case is just about perfect. The leather is high quality and nice to the touch. The flap can be folded behind the phone and held there by the magnetic tab, making texting and access to all functions easy. All buttons and ports are available even when the case is closed so that the phone is protected while charging. I was somewhat concerned that the camera may be difficult to use, but even here the case shines. The camera is actually easier to use because the flap can be used to hold the phone steady.

If I looked hard enough! Lots of footwork.- NOTE: If you know where to look you can upgrade software OS for the phone too with XDA Developers and other sites. There is even an Android upgrade in works, so you can get a better Windows Mobile experience or whole new Operating System entirely. This is The Big PLUS for this phone.- You can do this with other phones, but this Windows Mobile handset, like many others with the 6.1 - 6.5 software are VERY open source and easily modifiable- Also has a GREAT camera.

There are two things I wish it had. First is the feature to show the caller id of the person calling, not ""Dock-N-Talk"". If you can forward the call to my home phones, you should be able to tell me who it is calling. Second, when someone leaves a message, my home phone systems do not blink, as they use to when a message was left. I have to rely on my cell phone to notify me of a voice message. Aside from that, I am completely satisfied. I'm saving money by having my land line disconnected and that makes me very happy.The Dock-N-Talk gives me the use of all phones in my house and that makes me feel safe, should some emergency arise and I am unable to get to my cell phone, which previously was carried in my purse. Had I been upstairs and had chest pain and needed to call for help, I would have been out of luck. This device eliminates that problem completely.I also like the Blue Tooth adapter.

It's my first Android smart phone, so I'm having to learn both the new handset and a new OS, after having used E-Series Nokia phones for many years.One of the things that drew me to this model was its hardware keyboard (in addition to the on-screen ones it offers in both portrait and landscape modes). With the Nokia E-Series Symbian models being discontinued, there aren't a great number of quality, high performing smartphone choices with hardware keyboards. But after doing a lot of research, I settled on this one, and thus far am glad I did.I'm a tall guy with large hands and long fingers, but the keyboard on the MiniPro works fine for me. The keys have a firm click-type (non-audible) touch and are nicely spaced and tactile. The slide out mechanism as others have noted is solid and firm, no jiggering or bending when the keyboard is extended.I too found the build quality to be quite good, notwithstanding the plastic case materials. Despite reading the comments in prior reviews here, I had no trouble snapping off the back of the phone to access the battery and SD card and SIM card slots. On my model at least, the back snaps on and off securely, but easily. I was never worried I was going to break anything trying.When closed, the size of the phone is surprisingly small in terms of height and width, but it is a bit chubbier than non-hardware-keyboard phones as you'd expect. But it feels good in the hand, is easy to hold and handle and doesn't feel slippery. That said, it easily fits inside a man's shirt or pants pocket.Even though it's not a dual core processor, the response of the phone is swift and smooth, no lagging or stuttering. The screen image quality is quite good, though at about 3 inches, you wouldn't want it any smaller. But I have ready access to desktop and laptop PCs most of the time, so I wasn't looking to carry around a large screen in my pocket.I do have a couple of gripes about the phone, though.--One is the design of the small plastic cover of the micro USB slot that's used for data connections and charging the phone. It's a small plastic piece that you have to pry open with your fingernail and pivot out from its resting place. Then once open, the little plastic piece just hangs loosely and dangling there attached by a very tiny connector. A sliding cover or some other approach would have been much better for an otherwise elegant phone. The way the little cover hangs there annoyingly, I almost want to cut it off and just leave the micro USB port uncovered.--Another is when I set up the phone, I followed the very minimal paperwork included in the box, and used common sense based on my familiarity with computers and smartphones. But when I tried to use the main camera on the phone, the images were all blurry, even after I cleaned the exterior lens surface with a soft camera lens cleaning cloth. So I ended up taking the phone into a Sony shop to have them take a look at that problem. And to my surprise, they said there had been a small (I assume protective) plastic film sheet covering the main camera lens. I swear, I never saw it, and didn't see any info about it on the phone's setup info. But once removed, the camera takes very nice photos for a 5 mp snapper with auto focus.Other misc things, the sound quality and loudness on calls and playing music etc. I found quite good. I liked the feature in the camera whereby you can focus and take a phone just by tapping anywhere on the view screen (apart from also having a physical camera shutter key). Also the accelerometer that automatically shifts the phone's display between portrait and landscape works smoothly and quickly.Add in full access to the Android Market, good video recording, FM radio included, a 2 GB memory card included, the included Flash video playing capability, WiFi N, and stereo Bluetooth, and Sony has packed a lot of powerful capabilities into this small package.It's not the slimmest or most elegant or highest specced Android smartphone on the market, but it's a great phone at a great price, especially if you're buying it out of your own pocket and not on a carrier contract discount, that pretty much can do anything you want to do for business/work or for personal entertainment.PS - Just as a quick follow-up, now Jan. 2013 and this phone is still going strong and performing well. Just last month got the Ice Cream Sandwich OS via download, and it seems to work OK with that, at least for me. Everything I said above in my original review I still hold to.One thing I managed to solve was the dangling micro-USB slot cover issue. Following another user's suggestion I read on one of the Sony forums, I took an Xacto knife and cut/shaved off a tiny portion of the interior part of the cover (the part that fits into the micro USB slot cover). I DIDN'T cut off the dangling cover itself. But after trimming the inside tab a bit, the cover now can be inserted and removed with my fingernail much easier, and no longer drives me crazy as it did when I first got the phone. Sony, unfortunately, just made the original cover fit a bit too snugly. But that's something any user can easily remedy.Lastly, having used the phone for more than a year now, I want to comment also on what a good camera it has for just a 5 MP model. As anyone familiar with such things knows, it's not automatically the case that a higher number of megapixels is going to mean better quality images. There are lots of mobile phones out there with 8+ MP camera, but read the reviews, and you'll see many, many produce noisy, artifacted, oddly shaded photos. After having had a year to compare my mobile phone's photos with those of friends and family members using other smart phones, I'd certainly say the MiniPro's photos are among the best quality that I've seen.",3517,0 +3518,"Junk + +I did not notice all the Radio Interface Resource Shortage problems with this phone and right after I activated it, it started with that message and the texts won't go through or come in.

I purchased this phone after destroying my expensive HTC one X.1. The phone will do an online backup, but after a resetting the phone, you only have one chance after the first reboot to restore your phone. The problem is that you have to use your phones data plan to do the restore and since you have to change the APN setting to use straight talk, you will not be able to do a restore. If the phone isn't unlocked, then you will have to borrow a SIM card from someone with AT&t; so you can connect to the internet and download the restore.2. The restore doesn't remember how you have your tiles positioned. A lot of time can be spent organizing tiles.3. AT&T; has the internet sharing locked down on my phone. I had the phone unlocked, but I still can't get rid of the AT&T; lock on internet sharing.4. I really like the windows phone operating system. I will probably buy the new Nexus when it's released, but I'm not going to be in a big hurry. If I could get internet sharing working, then I would have no good reason to not stay with a windows phone.5. I get 4G data connections with straight talk. The best I've seen from android in this price range is 3G.6. Since the phone is so cheap, I don't worry about keeping it in a case.7. The Nokia GPS with offline maps is great, and all you have to do is create your nokia account.8. If you plug in headphones, then you can use the built in FM tuner in the phone. The phone uses the headphone cord as the antenna.9. The camera is ok, but there is no flash.10. The battery is removable. I'm always annoyed by devices that don't make it easy to replace a battery.

Was immediately disappointed.1) Screen colors look pale. Definitely paler than Note 2.2) When played music sound was inferior. I compared them back to back, playing exact same song, on exact same setting. Note 2 sounds noticeably better.3) Pictures taken with this camera definitely inferior to Note 2. It may also be 8 MB, but it is not the same 8 MB.4) Had weird issue with SD card. Unmounted my SanDisc 64 GB card from Note 2 and inserted into S4 Mini. No problem at first, card recognized and worked fine. After I turned off the phone and turned it on again message ""SD card removed"" appeared, followed by ""SD card unexpectedly removed"". Phone either saw the card but did not see any files on the card, or did not see the card at all. Tried to re-incert the card - worked well for a while, but once I turned off and on the phone again same thing happened. When the card was back in Note 2 it had not problem, which can only mean one thing - problem is with S4 mini.I can see here the description states that SD card up to 32 GB is OK, but the manual says that it should be able to take cards up to 64 GB. I considered buying another card, but decided not to take a chance. Given overall poor performance I have decided to return the phone and get S4.

(Edit: Oh. there it is) + +EDIT:Alright so I used it for some time, and I was probably wrong about the battery.At first I was disappointed that I was not getting the huge battery life that people reported, such as the people that talk about getting 48 hours of battery life, since under my usage I can drain the battery in a hot flash in like 1 hour, and as of now I apparently average 7-8 hours of battery life.But I concluded that it was because I was running programs like The World of Magic, and it eats the battery like no other and can not be compared to texting and checking mail.I probably jumped to conclusions too fast when the battery estimator showed 2300 mAhThe estimate currently is 3797 mAh +/-19%I can probably now safely say that I got exactly what was advertised.And though not as amazing as I thought, it is exactly what this battery is supposed to be capable of. For all I know.----------------After about 4 complete uninterrupted charges and discharges, I am also getting an battery estimate near 2300 mAh.I don't care that the price is low (the reason it gets 2 stars instead of 1 haha.) The product has nowhere near the advertised capacity, and that is just WRONG...If it has to with that irritatingly persistent excuse of training the battery right, This product is a Li-ion battery and I do not believe they can gain capacity by cycling. Li batteries can only lose their capacity over the months or years.I also read that full charges and full drains are actually not good for Li batteries.My battery cap is fine and works properly, and did not break, and will probably stay that way as long as you are careful.It is kinda ugly. Not good if your reason for accepting the appearance is for the doubled battery life. Because your battery life is only going to increase a little.I may return to comment if I have news, but as for the time being,know that this product is basically an over-sized 2200-2400 mAh battery.",3526,0 +3527,"Low rating only to warn buyers + +This is actually a great item. If you're reading this, I give it 5 stars. The CD slot is ideal for not attaching to the windshield, since I've have those mounts come loose and fall onto the dash while I'm driving. Also, some states have restrictions on mounting things to the windshield that can hinder visibility. This works great for keeping my device out of the way, but also near the radio/dash, where hand placement is natural if you're use to interacting with your radio/dash a lot. Under driving vibration the mount is sturdy without any shaking.Sorry about the low rating, but this review is just to warn any potential buyer (whose wise enough to search low rated reviews. which are easier to sift through than good ratings) to avoid AMZN's 3rd party sellers. I got mine and it was a knockoff even though images displayed were of the genuine product. Shame on me for trying to save a few dollars, but shame on AMZN for not vetting out these counterfeiters.

I purchased this phone with hesitation but having upgrading from an older 2.3 Android phone this phone is a vast improvement.

Going with Gingerbead instead of Ice Cream Sandwich is really not worth it. Also I would recommend a 32gb Micro sd card. Additionally I had read somewhere that this phone has two 500mhz cores instead of 1ghz cores. I can confirm it has 2 1ghz cores but the RAM is actually 384mb and 512mb which is fine for most people. Games like GTA3 and Minecraft work pretty well surprisingly.Edit: One thing I've noticed about this phone in reference to the freezing and crashing issues, is that it likes to be restarted about once a week. This used to happen on my Galaxy S 2 Skyrocket and iPhone 4 and a simple restart would generally clear up crashing and Force Closes on applications.

I can wear this thing without worrying about if falling off and the volume can be set quite high.2. Works well with my Macbook Pro. It was easily recognised by the OS and the output/input could easily be set in the control pannel.3. Range was quite good when using with my laptop. I could walk 20 feet away and still have a clear signal. Things started getting a bit spotty any further than that.I would probably recommend this... it's probably the best you'll get for the price.Negative* Aspects1. I wish the audio quality were better. I felt the sound was around 32.000 kHz. I was hoping it would be a bit higher... more like a normal 20-22,000 headphone range. It is significantly less. I don't have trouble understanding anyone... but it certainly sounds worse than my phone's built-in earpiece.2. I found it started behaving erratically after about 4-5 hours.

Anyway, her line was ready up for renewal and at first we tried the Droid Incredible 2 from HTC. Bad mistake. Horrible UI, and the phone had too many bugs in it. Taken the Droid Incredible 2 back to Verizon and paid $35 bucks for re-stocking fee, I was able to get my wife the Droid X2. She loves it. And its making me jealous. There is a huge difference between Droid X and Droid X2, and you can tell from the screen, colors, and the faster processor.

Thanks",3563,0 +3564,"It does its job + +Overall the holder does its job but it has some significant drawbacks and since it would have cost as much to send back to the refund I would have received I am keeping it and making it work as best as I can.The Good:1) It is stout. I have little fear of it breaking short of running it over with the car.2) Lots of adjustments. There are three different adjustment points on the holder that let you aim it exactly where you want. The phone holder also rotates 360* when attached to the arm, quite nice.3) Holding mechanism. It has a release button that is spring loaded. Then you insert your phone and press the 'jaws' together. There is thick foam on either jaw that firmly holds the phone with little chance of damage.4) Big suction cup with a level to lock it into place. I like the suction cup attachment, it is very secure and I have little fear that it will fall off my windshield.The bad:1) The holder comes in two pieces the suction cup/arm piece and the phone holder. To attach them you insert 4 little tabs and slide to 'lock' it in. The problem is, it does not lock in at all and the parts are very loose to each other. The first time I put it in the car, I closed the door and the phone cradle fell off. It would not take much of a turn or bump to make the cradle fall off the arm. So my fix was to super glue the cradle and the arm piece together. I did not lose any functionality but I really should not have had to do this.2) It's BIG. This thing is rather large and it could easily get in the way. While the bulk adds to its stoutness which I gave as a pro, it could get in the way too much for many.3) Rattle Rattle: Well, this is the biggest con to me so far because I took care of con 1 and I can deal with con 2 but this one I have not been able to fix. It rattles quite loudly over every bump I go over and its quite annoying.I have this in my Sky so it has a rather rigid suspension so the rattles may not be as bad as in more family oriented vehicles.",3564,0 +3565,"The Truth about Flashed Phones + +For all of you deciding whether or not to go through with this let me tell you about my experience. First an Evo and a good portion of android phones can be flashed to work with boost mobile ie Samsung nexus, evo 3d, evo shift, galaxy nexus, galaxy s2, etc.1) Although it is possible to do it is not an activity permitted by Boost Mobile so don't ask for their help if you run into trouble using the phone after it is flashed.2) The flashing process works like this: First you need a boost mobile phone that works on the Boost CDMA network. Most flashers tell you to get a sanyo incognito because it works the best. This is the phone that will be on file when you call boost mobile. The flasher will provide in imei and all other relevant info for the sanyo incoginito phone while then cloning this info over to the phone that is being flashed ie HTC Evo. Once that process is complete you will be able to use the EVO or any other android phone on the boost mobile network. Calls, text, MMS, web will all work.3) I have had this done, I switched from the blackberry $60.00 a month plan w/shrinkage. When I switched over the price drops instantly and carries over any shrinkage you may have already accrued. This dropped me down to $45 a month. I've had it for over a year now so I now only pay $35.00 a month.4) Positives about it: You can use the functions of a great phone, better than you can buy from boost, unlimited 3g. Negatives include: you can't call boost for troubleshooting if something goes wrong (you'd have to go back to the flasher); no native voicemail notifier (you will receive voicemails but unless you periodically call your voicemail # you won't know. Although you can download an app to do so (voicemail notifier, google voicemail notifier.apk) and my wifi tethering doesn't really work although I have seen it work for other people (check youtube videos).5) My advice is to buy one not flashed, by the donor phone and pay someone to flash it locally. FYI if the donor phone is turned on at the same time your new EVO is on both phones ring and can be answered so they suggest to keep the donor phone off at all times. (Remember the phone your using is just a clone). If you buy it flashed already when you have to change over the EVO to your phone number you will still have to have it programmed so it works with your phone number and for those that aren't technically savy like me its worth it to let someone with experience do everything start to finish, complete turnkey. The flash should cost no more depending on the phone between $40 - $70 depending on the type of phone and then it just the cost of the phones, used sanyo = $50 or less and then the phone you want to use.Good Luck!FYI - I totally recommend flashing your phone I would do it again but just a heads up 5/31 you will be able to buy a boost branded EVO that will run at 4g speeds up to 2.5GB and use all the EVO features. After 2.5GB you will be slowed down till next month. If you flash you only get 3g speeds but its truly unlimited.",3565,0 +3566,"Perfect Fit + +The jelly skin case cover is a perfect fit for my Samsung Galaxy Notebook 10.1.

Here are my thoughts:1. Comfort (5/5) : This is one of the most comfortable headsets I've worn. I've used Plantronics, Jabra, Nokia headsets in the past and this is by far the least intrusive headset I've owned. You can literally forget that you're wearing it.2. Sound Quality (4/5) : The sound is very good. Callers on the other end had no problems either. I'm giving 4/5 because it does get a little tinny in loud places. But then, so does my Razr.3. Features/Functionality (4.5/5) : The folding boom to turn the unit On and Off is great. This also frees up the multifunction button for other things. In call features all work perfectly. I've tested quite a few with no complaints. I deduct 0.5 for not having a USB charger. This would have saved me from having to lug one more charger around when I travel. Some might point out the lack of an LCD screen but my Phone has 2 of those and they both have better color and resolution than the tiny screens on headsets. Besides, unless you have eyes on stalks how are you going to see the headset screen while wearing it on your ear?4. Style (4/5) : Its still somewhat large and the huge blue light could help you guide a 747 down but the 'graphite' version is a little nicer looking than the silver. That said, its not as hideous like some of the plantronics ones that look like a second earlobe. I do wish I could turn off the blue staus light because I really dont want to be one of those dorks wearing their BT headsets in restaurants, bars, coffeeshops and looking like lighthouses.5. Value (5/5) : Excellent value for money. I paid around $59 for my unit and feel I got a quality product.Overall rating 4.5/5 Stars",3570,0 +3571,"Very satisfying product + +Not sure about the negative reviews. Perhaps they got lemons or just don't know how to set it up/charge it properly. It's simple to use, you barely need an instruction manual at all.Range: 20-30 feetBattery: Roughly 8 hours with non-stop useBass: Soft, "warm" sound that isn't just a boom meant to shatter ear drums. Perfect tone for me. (It can be really loud on highest volume, though)Size: Each bud is about the size of a hearing aide from the early 00's. I've never worn hearing aides, but that's besides the point. Still very comfortable and light-weight. They fit in very snug if you use the right size tips.Sound: Good quality, honestly not much of a difference between these and $200.00 ones. They are definitely stereo, I've tested it numerous times on dozens of different songs.The important thing to know about headphones is that they're like HDMI cables.

I went to the website registered, it turned out the replacement is ""FREE"" but you have to pay for Shipping and Handling charge of $3.99 plus you have to return an old damaged shield using Certified Trackable mail service at your own expense so I am guessing another $3-4. So your free replacements end up costing you $8 out of pocket on top of the $25 spent at AT&T store for the first one, not to talk about time wasted going to post office in order to ship an old one. Oh and I forgot they pre-charge your Credit Card for full ammount then they refund the difference minus shipping costs. Unethical company, will never buy from again.

Most of the time I using many of the apps at the same time. With all this activity, I am getting about 3.5 to 4 hrs of use out of it.....Oh yea, did I mention that I have made a few phone call with it. With that it mind, even the battery time is not that bad.All and all, it is a great phone. It is extremely responsive, no application crashes and a crystal clear screen that is a pleasure to look at. All the applications I have used, ran without a hitch. Its slender light design makes it easy to access the buttons with one hand, freeing up the other to tap and sweep screen and work with the applications that I have installed. The sound quality is really good but not great but when used with an earpiece, which I usually do, it is phenominal. It signal strength is the best I have experienced on a smart-phone to date. I have had a few smartphone to compare this to. I not only recieve 4 bars for voice but also for 3G which has not been my experience with my other smartphones in Roanoke, VA. It's general design makes it, well, addicting to use. Configuration and set-up was straight forward and I completed it without a hitch. I have not had a single crash or glitch yet. I choose this phone despite it only having 3G because Verizon will not start rolling out 4G in my area until December of 2011 and that means they will not have adequate equipment to provide seamless 4G coverage for an additional year. By this time I will be able to upgrade my phone again and much better 4G phones will be on the market. The camera takes crisp, bright and clear photos that are as good as many comparable stand alone cameras with simular features and specs.In conclusion, aside from battery life, which can be remedied with a spare battery or thePowerSkin AP1503MDX Silicone Case with Built-in Rechargeable Battery for Motorola Droid X and Droid X2 (Black), if you are looking for an extremely well done phone, look no further.

What I particularly like is the tight, custom feel, as I guess it has. Charging is rapid and is at least as fast as the corded method if that's even possible. Magnets center the phone horizontally and vertically so you don't have to skate around to find the ""sweet spot."" The charge light on the phone stays on when it's charging, the the whole process shuts down when charging is complete. There are no obnoxious LED's to light up the bedroom, and only a faint beep when charging begins and ends, it won't wake you up. This exceeds my expectations and I'm one to notice every little flaw. This has none I could find. Well thought out and manufactured. I have attached pictures of the pad itself and the unit set up and in operation.Update after one month: The unit is performing well with no problems. What surprised me is how fast this unit charges, MUCH faster than the charging cord. I have read similar comments on inductive chargers so there must be something to it.

Unable to charge it and of course it won't turn on. I should have know something was up when smarthome.com said any warranty issues with this need to be dealt with directly with the company. Go to noisehush.com and they talk about their great warranty. ""Click here"" for information about sending back an item under warranty. That brings you to their warranty document, then it says ""click here"" for information about sending this thing back. When you click it brings you back to the main page. You can go in circles all day and there is no info on sending anything back. Call the number on their web site and the message says the phone company can't route this call. I tried from several places/different phone carriers, all the same thing. They finally respond to an email after several days, telling me to ship it back to them, (on my dime) and if they deem it's bad they will replace it but I will also have to pay shipping back to me. Wait a minute! I just paid for this thing in full, it's dead and I have to pay shipping both ways to replace it, if they feel like replacing it? Do yourself a favor. If you need something hands free for your cell, go to Amazon, where I usually buy things, and pick out something by a reputable company like Motorola, look at all the customer reviews, and if it's mostly favorable, pick something from Motorola. Don't ever waste your time with products from a company called noisehush.

Well, it charges and turns on, but per the instructions does not work as described. Sometimes it will turn on and sometimes it just goes into it's pairing mode.

No matter what ringtone you have chosen on your phone, when you have the bluetooth turned on, it only rings with 1 type of ring.In other words, I can choose the ""Cingular"" tune for my phone to use for it's ring tone. BUT if I have the bluetooth headset turned on, and I get a phone call, it rings with a generic ring tone (called ""continental""). It is a loud obnoxious generic ringtone.After speaking to Cingular customer service, and speaking to Motorola customer service, APPARENTLY there is no way to change the ringtone to anything other than 'continental' when the bluetooth is on.Folks, DO NOT waste your money downloading ringtones from the internet, because they won't work anyway if y ou use bluetooth.And don't waste your money on any motoroloa bluetooth headpieces if you want to have a different ringtone than 'continental'!The funny thing is, I have several friends that have motorola phones and motorola bluetooth earpieces that don't have this issue, but when I told the Motorola customer support about that, they don't seem to care and tell me it shouldn't work that way and it's not supported with anything other than Continental ringtone.

I've had very bad luck with phones the past year, loosing them, smashing them, getting them wet,etc which means I've gone through alot of phones in my day.I owned the first gen iPhone right when it came out, went to the iPhone 3 then 4 but after smashing multiple screens and going through so many of them/my final incident with Apple being dreadful i decided to try something new.So i went to BlackBerry and got the 8520 curve, i loved the keyboard but hated the internet.. So i went for the Torch, i really liked the phone but always found it a little awkward and the touchscreen and OS extremely unimpressive.. Once this was lost i went to the AT&T; store with a completely open mind, and left with the QUANTUM.After so much phone usage i decided on a few things i wanted out of my next phone.- A KEYBOARD-FAST, REAL INTERNETseems simple enough right ? You'd be surprised. Every phone has its own features but few offer everything..Ultimately the Quantum was the best fit. It was a good price, had a great keyboard, could be covered with a 5 dollar insurance fee, and had full fast internet i was impressed by. It also has a good Facebook app, and later on I found out it had 16 GBs of memory so it can hold a nice amount of songs and pictures.. Oh and it has a flash which I've always found useful.The Quantum really is a great phone and the windows 7 operating system is the only one that is as responsive as the iPhones and is the only one I've used with internet as good as that of the iPhones..Get the Quantum if anything I've mentioned relates to your needs, and if you'd be interested in sort of a cross between a BlackBerrys messaging capabilities with the internet capability of an iPhone..The only negatives are...-Sometimes the screen seems a bit small.-There aren't as many apps to choose from as the iPhone but functionality wise id compare the apps offered to the Blackberry.-I really wish it had Pandora as well.But all in all im very very pleased with it and would recommend it highly to anyone!",3595,0 +3596,"Unacceptable performance from a ""top-tier"" phone + +What's good about this phone? It has a great display, a great processor, and the changes to Android for ICS are all steps in the right direction. Among the ICS changes I appreciate the most: the new ""recently-used apps"" button, the context-sensitive settings button, the software buttons, the Navigation voice improvements, the very snappy GPS performance.What's bad about this phone? Well, take a seat.The phone randomly reboots itself every couple days, usually right when I need it the most (in the middle of turn-by-turn GPS navigation).It gets unbelievably hot while charging and using GPS in the car.Far and away the most annoying, call quality can be terrible even with full bars in Verizon 4G. I spent an hour on the phone with support and they ended up telling me that it was a software issue with Android that should be fixed in a future update, and that if I experience bad call quality I should reboot the phone. That is an unacceptable ""solution"", and I've found that I basically get one or two good calls before call quality starts to sound like I'm in the middle of a desert. It's really unfathomable that the data network is so high-bandwidth that I can make a skype call with crystal-clear voice quality but my cell calls sound like a lawnmower convention.Ok that rant is over. What else ... battery life is amazingly bad, as documented everywhere else on the internet.The sound stutters when trying to listen to multiple things at once. For instance, if you're listening to music and using GPS, or a text message comes in, the sound can (not always, but regularly) stutter badly to the point that you want to turn the sound off completely. It sounds especially bad when you're in the car with the phone plugged in via 3.5mm to your stereo. Also, would be really nice if there were options to disable incoming sounds when listening to music. Otherwise using the phone as an mp3 player for company becomes unworkable unless you go into airplane mode.These type of polish issues become especially frustrating when you consider that the Nexus line is supposed to generate Google's ""reference phones"" for Android. The Nexus One wasn't as fast and probably couldn't handle ICS, but at least it did what it said it could do. The Galaxy Nexus has taken a step forward in speed, features, and polish, and two steps backwards in polish (yes, I wrote it twice) and basic functionality. On top of that, the Android updates that might fix these issues have been delayed for months and no explanations have been offered.If I were buying again, I don't know if even the cheap $50 price could entice me. I would probably wait for the iPhone 5. The One X (not on Verizon) and the Galaxy S III are the new Android superphones, but if the Galaxy Nexus running stock Android has these kinds of issues, who's to say the newer superphones won't have them as well? As annoying as it is to admit, Apple is showing that they are the only company with enough attention to detail to merit the patronage of discerning customers.Update: I forgot to mention a few issues.One, when I have the phone plugged in to my car charger and hooked up to my car stereo (via 3.5mm), when I hold the phone with my fingers wrapped around the phone just above the base where the charger is plugged, an incredibly annoying loud clicking sound starts coming out of my speakers. Apparently my hand + the charger causes some kind of electrical interference?Second, the camera frequently has software issues that require me to reboot the phone. Instagram and the native camera app will say, ""Cannot connect to camera.""Third, (and this is probably an Android 4.0 issue rather than a Nexus issue), sometimes the phone gets confused about which app a shortcut is supposed to open. For instance, I could click the Messaging app icon and be sent to the Bacon Reader app instead. I haven't figured out any sure way to fix this other than rebooting the phone. Sometimes a pressing the back button a lot will sort the issue out but other times it won't.If any of these problems are fixed in future updates, I will update the review.Update 2: The (Text) Messaging app doesn't handle drafts correctly. Very annoying.==========================================================================================Update after using Android 4.1.1 for quite a while:Several of the issues I mentioned above have been addressed in Android 4.1.1. Specifically1. The audio stuttering issues have been addressed and a very elegant ""sound-over"" technique is used when multiple sounds are playing at the same time. For instance, if I'm using turn-by-turn (the main reason I'll probably never go to an Apple phone) while listening to music and the voice navigation needs to say something, the music audio lowers for a momemt, the voice navigation speaks over the music, and then the music audio raises again. A very nice solution to the problem of multiple claims on the sound output and a welcome fix to the stuttering issues.2. The phone no longer reboots itself randomly. In fact, I had forgotten how much I hated that until I re-read my own review.3. The text messaging app handles drafts correctly.I will also mention that the new behavior of Jelly Bean is nicer in general. The UI is more responsive and I like the new Notifications pulldown enhancements quite a bit. I would also have said that they fixed the ""Cannot connect to camera"" because that hadn't happened to me in a long time but it did pop up the other day. So boo to that, but it is much better than it was. The new ""Play Music"" app is very thoughtful with several ways to edit your queue (think ""Currently Playing') or playlists on the fly that make the app a pleasure to use. Say for instance that you want to listen to several albums without touching the phone again. Just play the first one and add the rest to your queue, and you're done.So, what didn't they fix? The things that you would have expected - the hardware issues.1. Most importantly, the phone still sounds like crap when making voice calls. Several comments suggested that I have a bad phone and I should exchange it, but given the number and type of complaints I have seen from some other Galaxy Nexus owners, I'm afraid to exchange it lest the devil I have be gentle compared to the devil I don't.2. The battery life is still awful. Although, I'm willing to exchange battery life for screen size if that is the trade-off you have to make while battery technology develops. You just have to have chargers everywhere.3. The phone still makes an odd clicking sound when you hold it in a certain way while using the 3.5 mm out.Ultimately I use the phone as a handheld computer the most, and as a talking device secondarily, so I'm just going to put up with the hardware issues until my contract is up. I don't think it's worth $250 to break contract and get a better speaking phone.Also, I have no desire to join the back-slapping circle of Apple owners congratulating themselves on their great taste.",3596,0 +3597,"Could have been great, but limited feature set + +In February, I purchased two Motorola T325 Wireless Bluetooth Car Speaker Portable Vehicle Visor Mount with Auto Pairing For All Cell Phones and Smartphones- BLACK- Non-Retail Packaging. for my wife's and my vehicles and gave those units a 5-star review.I requested a review unit of this T225 because the limitation of our T325 per-vehicle solution has been that if my wife and I swap cars, we don't have hands-free calling unless the first person out remembers to also swap the speakerphone units.This T225 speakerphone pairs with multiple cell phones so that more than one person can use it hands-free. The extra people might be in the vehicle (which would be a little weird, as the microphone would typically be on the driver's sun visor). But, in a multi-driver household, any driver would have hands-free operation.What's not to like? Well, all of the features of the T325 that this speakerphone does not have which make the T325 more ""hands-free"" than the T225.This is a very basic, 'dumb' unit. When a phone rings, it announces that the call is for Phone 1, Phone 2, etc. If two paired phones are in the car, you have to have some idea which phone is 1 or 2 (etc) to know if it is your phone that is ringing or someone else's. Doesn't sound like a huge deal, but...What about when only one of multiple paired phones is in the car? This phone simply rings and says that there is an incoming call. You have no idea who it is from. The T325 announces the caller by name. If you don't want to answer the call on this T225, you have to somehow press both the volume UP and DOWN buttons at the same time. With the T325, you just press a single button.How about dialing? Both support voice dialing using your phones own voice-dialing feature. So, the intelligence depends on your phone itself. But, what about calling your 'favorites' or frequently called numbers? The T225 offers nothing. The T325 memorizes a list of favorite contacts and easily lets you scroll through the list with one button, listening to the name being announced and then pressing the dial button when the name comes up.Entering the car, the T325 announces ""Connected to John Smith's iPhone. Battery level is high"" (e.g.) - while the T225 announces ""Connected to Phone 1. Battery level is high."" Receiving a call, the T325 announces ""Call from David Jackson"". The T225 announces ""Call for Phone 1"".The T225 is so limited - its only real feature is the ability to pair with multiple phones - that I just cannot recommend it, when I consider how powerful and useful the T325 is.I've posted a photo showing both the T225 and T325 clipped to the sun visor to compare their sizes/shapes.",3597,0 +3598,"Captivate Skin + +I bought this case for a new phone. I decided that I would keep the original protective coatings on until I had a chance to shop around for case instead of buying at AT&T; store. Very glad I did. Not only did I save a lot of money, the case fits perfectly and fits my personality also.Very nice snug fit and is sure to protect my investment.",3598,0 +3599,"Can't recommend + +I have had a tracphone for over 10 years and have been happy with their service and phones. When I found out they were offering an Android type phone I was excited to upgrade so I could use the internet if I needed to. My previous phone was a basic LG500 with a blackberry type keyboard which always worked well for what I wanted. I was able to transfer my number and minutes no problem. After using the LG Optimus for a few months I wish I had my old phone back. Here are some of the problems I've had. The keyboard is not usable. Try to tap a letter and you may get it or you may get one of many letters around it, or you may get the letter 2 or 3 or more times. The only way I can send a text is with the voice recognition feature which is pretty neat after I figured out how to use it. I can't answer calls. It worked fine when I got it then when I tried to swipe to answer it wouldn't work. My sister has the same phone and she told me to take out the battery and reinstall it after a minute and it would answer normally. She was right, it worked, for 2 days now it won't answer again. A few days ago at 7 in the morning the phone starts blaring out a startling noise. Thinking the alarm was turned on I picked it up and there was a text about an amber alert in a city 300 miles south of where I live. No problem a few hours on the internet and I was able to disable this unwanted annoyance. Set up your gmail on your phone will alarm every time you get an email message. No problem, a few visits to help forums and you can figure out how to disable another annoying helpful feature. Battery life between charges I would say is 10% of my old phone capability. The list goes on and on. Unfortunately I already donated my old phone but am seriously thinking about buying another one. This phone has a lot of interesting features which you could spend hours researching, but if what you want to do is send texts and answer incoming calls don't buy it.Update: After contacting Tracphone and Tech help at LG I did a reset twice and am still unable to answer calls. Amazon says I can't exchange after 30 days so I'm stuck with this thing. There is obviously something wrong with the touch screen. Very disappointed.Last update: After 3 months of frustrations and missed calls, I bought a ZTE Valet tracphone (on sale at Target or I would write a good review on it). It is cheaper than the LG was and works perfectly. Easy to type on, no more missed calls. It rings, you can answer it. There was a problem with the LG from the beginning but it worked sporadically and I was not familiar with Androids so it took a while to figure out it was defective. After all the screwing around with the LG it was in the end worth the $80 I paid for it to take it out in the back yard and smash it with a brick.",3599,0 +3600,"Happy I switched + +I've had this phone for one week. Previously had a plain (uh, non-smart?) cellphone and no data plan -- upgrading to this phone and a data plan was rather impulsive, but I've no regrets. It took several days of working with the phone to get comfortable -- changing keyboards from QWERTY to Compact QWERTY was the single most important change -- couldn't type worth a darn with regular QWERTY even after calibrating it and spending hours trying to become accurate. Compact QWERTY has larger 'buttons' so most keys have two letters (as well as other characters, too) -- bottom line: I'm able to type w/o too much backspacing (regular QWERTY I swear I had to hit backspace as often as any other 'key') Anyway, compact QWERTY saved the phone from being returned.Main drawback so far is battery life. An App Killer (such as Advanced Task Killer free) is pretty much a necessity to avoid draining battery any more than necessary. I have to charge Hero daily (though that's probably because I'm still playing with it so much), but it's worth it to me because of the functionality. Also, sometimes it takes a little persistance to get phone/app to respond to a touchscreen press (Pandora can be sluggish in this regard.)If I had needed to do extensive rather than occasional text entry, this phone would not have worked out for me. However, for my usage, I'm quite pleased with HTC Hero.",3600,0 +3601,"does not uses sim card + +I'm from Barbados and bought this for my girlfriend. Was surprise to see this doesn't have a slot for a sim card which was very disappointing. All other functions of the phones works. Should inform customers next time.",3601,0 +3602,"Great way to save memory space on your ipad + +Pros: As a wireless media server, the AirStash is almost perfect. Almost. It's tiny, it charges via USB, lasts hours, allows multiple users to access it at once, and takes relatively inexpensive SDHC cards, effectively making the capacity unlimitedly expandable. This frees up tons of space on my iPad. With the cost of large SDHC cards dropping fast, it's very cool to have several 64GB cards filled with movies, each card as large as my ipad's entire available storage. Using the free App from the Apple App Store, the device streams full HD movies smoothly and effectively, with no stuttering, and almost no time wasted buffering.Cons: The main con for me is the archaic file structure the device uses, FAT32. Ostensibly it's to remain compatible with digital still cameras, but in effect it handicaps the device. With this file structure, no individual file can exceed 4GB. While that's hardly a problem for stills, music, and even SD features, many HD feature films exceed this file size. Compressing the movie to 4GB or under not only sacrifices some of the quality, but also is a time consuming, frustrating process. It would be great to have an upgrade that allows larger file sizes for today's media.The other major con is that there is no bridge mode, meaning you cannot connect to the internet while streaming from the device. While not the end of the world, it is a bit of a pain on the ipad to have to go to Settings, wait for the available WiFi networks to load, and select it. It's not that big of a deal, because if I'm watching a movie, I'm probably not surfing the net. But still, I do find it frustrating.Another con is how much they're charging you for the SDHC cards. There's no point in spending the $30 difference in list prices between the two models for an 8GB difference in SDHC size. It would be much better to offer this with no cards at all, and save the customer the money.Overall, the pro's far outweigh the con's. Looking forward to seeing if some of these improvements can be made with a firmware update, as opposed to having to purchase a new unit...",3602,0 +3603,"Phone is great (except media interface) but TMobile data service is disappointing :( + +Updated Dec 2008:If I could, I would move the rating up to 4 stars. 5 for the phone and 3 for TMobile.The phone is AWESOME. I'm sold and I don't think that I will go back to anything else.There are some quirks though, especially with the media interface. The Roxio media manager is terrible (and very slow) compared to iTunes or Media Player. Plus it is kind of frustrating that playlists tranfer into the phone correctly only through Roxio, Media Player 11 doesnt seem to transfer playlists.As I had mentioned in the previous review, my first phone was a lemon but thankfully TMobile replaced it without any hassles.Which gets us to TMobile. Love the guys for their service - it is head over heels better than the rest of the industry (I have been with Cingular, who are OK and Verizon, who would shoot you in the face if possible.) However, their data network is TERRIBLE. Websites take forever to load. I have to hard reboot the phone once a week to restore data access which somehow stops by itself! You can use the phone as a modem with you laptop only if you are ready to wait for ages for anything website to show up!Lets hope TMobile's 3G network solves these issues. If not, then they will go the way of Sprint with customers running away to other carriers and that would be a crying shame given how good their customer service otherwise is.-----------------------------------------------------------------------Features and usability-wise, this phone is simply awesome. You will get hooked once you start using it. Other reviewers have covered most features in detail so I will not go there.However, I did face some pretty serious issues with the phone. Within a week, I noticed that a crack had started appearing on the upper right hand corner of the phone. Then in a couple of days time a similar crack started appearing on the left side too. The phone was never dropped and neither was it stuffed into any jeans pockets (its winter time so it was mostly in the coat pocket in its case).Then, when I tried to take the rear cover off to take out the SIM card before shipping the unit back, the cover just wudnt budge. After a half-an-hour long struggle at the T-Mobile store with 5 people trying all they could, we finally managed to pry it open to realize that the rubber lining between the cover and the main body had somehow melted and become sticky - thus preventing the cover from sliding off. This is in a phone a week old!I am still not aware of how T-Mobile will resolve the issue (their customer service is amazing btw, it is hard to believe that they and Verizon actually are from the same planet!).

The screen protector does not trap air bubbles like a lot of other brands which is cool too. Honestly, those are the only good things I have to say about this case.We'll just do a list of cons from here:- It's massive, you're lucky if you get it in your pocket. It will not work on docks at all. It seriously triples the size of your phone. The frame is so thick that it's a pain to type or hit controls near the edge.- The headphone port doesn't leave enough room to hook up a quite a few types of headphones/cables. The hard plastic frame is to close to the input. To use a cable in to my stereo, I have to tear apart the case and leave my phone unprotected.- The picture flap sucks. If you like taking pictures, this thing will be in your way period. You have to use your other hand to hold it out of the way of the lense to get any pics and a lot of those will have your fingers in them.- The soft outter rubber is rather how should I say this...sticky I guess? If you do manage to get it in your pocket, it will undoubtedly take you twice as long to get it out. You will have to tuck your pocket back in because it's coming with the phone whether or not you want it too as the entire surface of the phone at this point is ""sticky.""- The home button is actually made to protrude with this case which will have your home button smashed more often than not. It's a huge disadvantage for ios 5. Siri is always coming on.- Is not compatible with the light sensor on the iphone 4s.

Regarding this review though I would like to say that I find customer service to be extremely important when purchasing a product. One of the reasons I have purchased from Apple, Verizon, Amazon, etc is because their CS is excellent.

I would have liked aluminum endcaps, but it's pretty great.two USB portsone 2.1A port and one 1A portCons:heavy, but at this capacity, that is the way it is going to be. not unexpected, but worth noting.Capacity: after charging the battery pack fully and discharging it until it stopped charging my phone, then turning it on again to verify it was indeed depleted, I totaled the change in charge percentages for each cycle. I totaled 263%. so about two and two thirds of a charge. I have an S4 with a 9.88 watt-hour battery, so 263% of that is just under 26 watt-hours. a 10,000 mAH 3.7V battery should deliver 37 Watt-hours of power. a bit of math tells me that I got 70% of the power I was supposed to be getting transferred from one battery to the other.I was really expecting more in the 85% rangethe included cable seems incapable of transferring data, my devices are not recognized when plugged into the computer with the supplied cable. good for charging only.Conclusion: this battery is great if you want to recharge your phone a few times, but I'm not so sure you'll get all the power from it that the package says. it has earned its place in my backpack as a daily carry item.",3631,0 +3632,"Awesome case!

This is not worth the effort. Otherwise, it is a good phone, but a good phone with no phone numbers is pretty worthless.",3635,1 +3636,"Great panel with a fatal flaw + +I got this panel to use during power outages to keep the gadgets charged. It works. When the sun is out in force, it works pretty well. I've tested several cellphones (including 2 at a time) as well as a Kindle Fire HD, and it does in fact charge them all. If I could leave it at that then this would be a 5 star item.But it has a significant flaw. As others have mentioned, if there is any interruption in the solar input - a cloud passing in front of the sun, creeping shadows fron trees or fences later in the day - then the unit stops charging altogether. I found this to be very frustrating, as I have had to keep checking and moving the unit and charging devices far more frequently than I'd like. I don't want a panel that I have to babysit. You often don't know if it's stopped; everything can look perfectly fine, then you go and check it and it's where it was an hour ago because some random cloud cast a shade on the panel and shut the device's charging cycle off...If you have nice, bright sun all day long and a large open area where shadows will not be a problem, then this charger will work great, because it IS a capable charger in those conditions. If you don't have that then it can be frustrating. Does it still work? Yes, but you have to constantly check on it, resetting your devices (unplugging them and then plugging them back in) very frequently. Without this flaw I'd give it 5 stars, as it is I'd give it maybe 3.5. So it works, just not as great as I'd hoped.I would only recommend buying this one if you have a large open area that won't be affected by shadows. If you have that then by all means get this one, if not, there are other options.",3636,0 +3637,"Great way to view/organize you photos across devices + +I've been looking for something that would easily allow me to see and organize all of my photos across devices. Everpix sort of did this, but then went belly up. Tried Picturelife, then Loom (then Dropbox bought it)...So far nothing seems to quite fit. But Lyve comes closest to filling the niche.Lyve is one of those products that isn't really like something that came before it, so it's hard to categorize. I think it works best in a post PC era..but can also work well with a Mac as the hub (so far no PC support, but supposed to be coming). Setup on iPhone and Mac is a breeze. Plug it in. Pick you're network. Log on. Pick where you want to collect photos from and that's about it. In less that five minutes it was up and running.. collecting photos. My iPhoto Library is about 30 GB or about 10,000 photos. Total time for backup was about 3 hours. I tried it with both wired and wireless connections. Setting up either way was easy. The company support is excellent. I called with an install issue on a MacBook Pro. The call was answered quickly, by someone who easily talked me through correcting the issue. I sent an email with a suggestion - I got a reply within 2 hours. The software interface is very polished...amazing for a 1.0 product. On the iPhone, the app is a joy to use. It does a good job of walking the line between ease of use and increasing features, but in most case it favors ease of use and elegance. Compared to Carousel the, DropBox option, I thought it had more features, and at the same time an easier interface. Data storage on the iPhone was 1/2 GB for the 10, 000 photo thumbnails, compared with about 3 times that amount for Carousel. I would suspect this will increase with time.What are the downsides. The big one, is it's almost mandatory to have a fast broadband connection. Since your photos are stored on the LyveHome, if say you want to download the full photo to your phone, well you're dependent on how fast your upload speed is from your home network. Secondly it doesn't really provide offsite backup. If I had to guess (and I have no inside information) this device is probably the camel's nose under the tent. I wouldn't be surprised if Lyve eventually offered an offsite backup option. This would provide the user the dual benefits of a backup offsite, and hopefully better download speeds not dependent on the LyveHome unit always being on. I wouldn't be surprised if they also eventually offered web access. Next I wish it had better integration with iPhoto, saving album information etc., but even with 1.0 it is pretty good. I tried browsing to other folders, one in a Dropbox folder and it uploaded these photos without problem. Still it would be nice to have a way so if I deleted photos in one site those changes carried over to and were synced to another.Oh, almost forgot..and it's a digital photo frame.

I thought this is going to be great, no longer do I need to carry my phone and Ipod with me I can just use the phone.For the first fortnight things were great, the picture quality was good, music was OK and it worked well as a phone. I did find the keys took a bit of getting used to as they are quite small and did not feel quite right (compared to my previous nokia) when I was first getting used to the phone. My only concern was that battery life seemed to be a bit low. Even in Standy mode it seemed to drain faster than what Sony Ericcson claimed. Then the phone just stopped making any noise and started deleting out my music and my ringtones. I sent it away for repair, and three weeks later (and no reason or apolagy for the delay or what the original problem was) I had a new phone. Only trouble was it would not work and when I inserted my SIM it kept saying ""Insert a Valid SIM"". Now I have to send it away again. I rang Sony Ericcson and they said that they will repair it but it may take a while! I was told that it may be possible to get a refurbished W800i, which is interesting as they have only been available for a few months why are there refurbished models around.So far I have had two out of two phones that are faulty, so I would recommend that you are very careful about deciding to purchase this phone, as Sony Ericcsons support for this phone does not seem to be too helpful if you have problems with it.",3640,0 +3641,"Loved it but... + +I definitely love this case.

To me, an iPhone without a cover is as easy to slip out of your hands as a piece of ice, and dropping an iPhone is not something that you want to do while standing over a hard surface. The Snugg Cover I would say reduces the chances of a dropped iPhone by about 90%.Do keep in mind that this is a cover and not a ""case."" In other words, if you do drop your iPhone with the Snugg Cover in place I'm not sure that it will increase the phone's chance of survival by much. It will indeed provide some protection if dropped, but the idea here is to prevent the drop.The case is made of rubber and has a kind-of tire tread pattern to help with the grip. Initially out of the box, the rubber feels a little like plastic, but after it gets broken in it becomes quite tacky (not lack of style tacky, I mean sticky tacky). And that's exactly what I was looking for. It may make it a little difficult to get in and out of my pocket sometimes, but I'd rather deal with that than a shattered iPhone. And the price is right.

Thanks to the dual-core processor, you'll be able to enjoy all your favorite games (and with often heavy processor needs) with no slowing or lagging.All those things I said further are wonderful, a lot of pros things.. but is the smartphone a ""perfect"" one ? Finally, perhaps not. It lacks of memory slot. You'll be stuck with the ""factory"" memory size of 16Gb (and you'll have in fact only 7 to 9 Gb left when all the apps and functionnalities are enabled).So, I enjoy this smartphone for more than 4 weeks. And the quality of the screen, of the music, of everything don't urge me to change this smartphone for anyother one.Test it !

I've tried almost everything, it still can't get the gps position...",3658,0 +3659,"Decent case, great value for the money. + +Short version:I hate cases, this is my first case on a phone, as I want to protect my beautiful SG3. I was just looking for a slim case, that has a kickstand, that will give some overall protection against small drops, scratches and everyday wear and tear. I do not want to add a lot of bulk to my phone. After all, whats the point of a gorgeous, slim phone if you slap it in a huge, honking case? This case seems like it will fulfill that role very well. It is light, thin and doesn't seem to add much bulk to the phone. Its a decent case that is great value for the price. You are not going to get Otterbox or Trident level protection, but you will get a nice, thin, light case with a built in kickstand, that will offer some protection. It does have some minor design flaws, but then again, its a five dollar case and performs admirably for that price range.Long Version:My case got here rather quick. I ordered it late Wednesday night, received the shipping info on Thursday and received the package on Monday.As far as the case goes, it fits very well around the top of the phone, where the most plastic on the case is. However, when it gets down to gel corner, the bottom left of the phone, as it faces you, it seems to fit a little awkward and the gel ridge does not come up over the front of the phone as much as the other corners. I have taken the phone out and reseated it a few times and it seems I was able to work it in a little. I now have it so that it is seated pretty good, but the ridge is still not quite high as the other corners though (took off one star for this). However, it still provides enough protection to keep the screen off of whatever smooth surface you would lay it on.The kickstand works as advertised, it will not allow you to do a ""portrait"" mode, it is restricted to ""landscape"" mode only (as shown in the photos). It is easy to grab and deploy with your finger nail. The kickstand itself seems to be much stronger than the Casemate's kickstand. However, the hinge could be the weak point on this kickstand. It is a rather hard plastic that doesn't seem like it will give much if some pressure is applied while the kickstand is deployed. As far as functionality, it seems to have different angles built into the hinge so you can change to viewing angle to suit your taste. It does have a bump on the back of the case where the hinge is at. It does cause the case to wobble some if you try to type while the phone is laying on a flat surface.The cutout holes line up pretty much exactly. The Samsung provided stock charger plugs in and charges with no issues. The headphone cutout fits the Samsung provided stock headphones with ease and seems to provide ample room for older headsets that have thicker connectors, as the stock headset is rather thin. The camera, speaker, flash and mic holes like up very well. The case is slightly higher than the small raised area on the phone for the camera lens, so it will keep that off any smooth surfaces you lay it on as well.The buttons work fine. As the other review stated, the power button seems to take slightly more pressure to to press than you would think, but to me it is not that noticeable. I actually view this as a plus, since before I got the case, I found myself hitting my power button by accident at times, as I am still not used to having it on the side of the phone. The volume keys work well, of course being in a case they take a little more pressure to press compared to not having a case, but they seem fine to me.The case came with a screen protector and pen, as advertised. The screen protector says it is manufactured by OKER. The pen is one of your cheap ""giveaway pens"". Nothing special. I don't care about either to be honest. I am not a fan of screen protectors. I had the first DroidX (which has the same Corning Gorilla Glass) for two years with no screen protector. After two full years of wear and tear, my screen still looks brand new. Of course I was cautious with it, trying to avoid the pocket with my keys or other hard objects whenever possible. My wife does have a screen protector on her phone, as she keeps her phone in her purse most of the time, so now she will have a spare.Again, I think the case is well worth the money and overall I am very pleased.",3659,0 +3660,"cheap, portable, does the trick well + +There realy isn't too much to say here. For less than $5, you get a touchscreen phone stand that holds the phone in an upright position (portrait or landscape) at an optimal viewing angle. The viewing angle is not adjustable, nor have I had the need to adjust it. I use it with my iPhone 4S very frequently, usually in the landscape position while I'm typing in the ""Pages"" app with a Bluetooth keyboard when not at home. My old phone, an HTC Droid Eris, also fits in the stand nicely. Both smartphones have protective bumper cases on them and fit just fine in the stand. Out of curiosity, I attempted to use the stand with my iPad 2, which is clearly was not strong enough to hold (I never let go of the iPad as it would have flopped over and probably broken the stand), but for smartphones, which is what it was designed for, this this does what it's supposed to do and meets my needs and expectations, for the price point, very well.",3660,0 +3661,"Nice + +These items are great and very affordable.

I finally found this one on Amazon for a very reasonable price. The phone fits very securely in place. The AceAbove is the perfect size with slots for an ID and/or debit cards. Also, there is an area for paper money, no coin storage. I love the snap closure and the sturdy leather like fabric it's made of.

I've been a software developer for over 30 years and have owned many cell phones; my last one was a Blackberry 8800. I also have lots of friends with iPhones and this phone beats them all. I agree the speaker has a tinny sound but I rarely use that. Everything else about this phone is just fantastic. IT's FAST running apps and with internet downloads. The other day while driving home in my car I had the phone plugged in to the AUX in on my car stereo listening to mp3's. I received a call and the music automatically stopped and I only heard the ringer. I answered the call, completed the conversation and when I hung up the music automatically started again right where it left off. The music app I was using is the free one that came installed on the phone.The one thing I do think the iPhone does better is the layout of the on-screen keyboard. The keys on the iPhone are spaced out a little further apart making them easier to hit and less chance of making a mistake. But the autospell feature on the Nexus One is much better than the iPhone. One of my iPhone friends misspelled Mississippi (spelled Missisipi) the exact same way on their iPhone and my Nexus One. The autospell feature on the iPhone couldn't make a guess but the Nexus One presented Mississippi as a choice. Also in order to change the battery on an iPhone you have to mail it back to Apple for a replacement but with the Nexus One you can change it yourself.The other point I LOVE about the Nexus One that I bought from Google for $529.00 plus shipping is that it's unlocked. All I did was install my SIM card and I'm using my Nexus One on my old contract that is the $10.00 a month charge for an extra phone. I didn't have to sign up for a 2 year contract and I don't have to shell out an extra $30.00 a month for a data plan which I think is outrageous. GO GOOGLE!I have been raving so much about my new phone that my wife is ready to buy one and she has just gotten a new LG View.If you're thinking about a smart phone, this is the one to buy.",3665,0 +3666,"Pink-toned Motorola H500 Bluetooth Headset + +Bluetooth cell phone headsets are really a subjective choice... period. Some love them and others hate them, and some models seem to fit one person's ear (and lifestyle) better than another. That being said, this reviewer will try to offer an (overdue) opinion on what has turned out to be a pretty good choice in a well-made Bluetooth cell phone headset.When I first looked at the Motorola H500, it's price tag was in the $100 range, so it was easy to pass on in favor of wired headsets. But with the recent price drops, this unit is not only worth considering, it's now even lower priced than some of the better wired units that were former favorites. Considering that so many states and localities have laws against cell phone use while driving, this can be an excellent communication tool if used carefully and safely.There are many brands and model out there to choose from, but the Motorola H500 is well worth consideration, especially in light of its excellent pricing. Once adjusted and positioned correctly to the ear, its overall sound quality has turned out to be excellent. Had held off on making a decision between brands and models mostly because I wear glasses, but after a bit of retail store test driving for fit and sound, found (like other reviewers) that this headset seems to settle easily to my ear and just seems to fit properly.One way of looking at how well a Bluetooth cell phone headset functions would perhaps be to rate its use during everyday tasks or activities, so here are a few of those, along with my personal findings.- Driving: excellent, quite functional, 5-stars.- Walking: excellent, 5-stars.- Cycling: excellent, low wind noise, 5-stars.- Running: OK, 4-stars (felt like it might fall off).- Computing: excellent, 5-stars.- Sleeping: decent, 4-stars... hey, just joking here!Don't want to go on a rant about driving while using a cell phone, but if you take the time to read your phone's manual along with the one for the Motorola H500, you'll find that you can use it with voice activated functions, so that you don't need to fool with cell phone dialing when driving. Just program your phone, say your party's name into the Bluetooth device and you'll be automatically connected.Color selections - something for everyone:-Motorola H500 Bluetooth Headset - Silver-Motorola H500 Bluetooth Headset - Black-Motorola H500 Bluetooth Headset - Pink-Motorola H500 Bluetooth Headset - Orange-Motorola H500 Bluetooth Headset - Teal BluePros:- Overall good sound quality, very little static.- Comfortable to wear/use, has an ergonomic ear hook.- Clean, streamlined design.- Good range, better than some others.- Bluetooth 1.2 means less interference & faster connections.- Inexpensive, reasonably priced.- About 8 hours talk time and 200 hours standby time on a charge.Cons:- Ringtone alerts, but that's a personal thing.- Small volume controls.Is this Motorola headset the newest, latest and greatest? Nope. If you want that, check out the newJawbone II Bluetooth Headsetby Aliph, but then check out the price on that unit and compare the features.Summary:The Motorola H500 is an inexpensive Bluetooth cell phone headsets, offering good sound quality, nice ergonomics, and better-than-average range. It's an excellent communication device, adding to driving safety if used carefully. If you're looking for a good Bluetooth headset at a reasonable price, it's well worth considering.Update:For those who privately asked, my H500 didn't come in a box. It came in a ziplock-style bag that was marked ""bulk"" on the label. It contained the H500 headset, AC charger, user guides and a ""Motomanual.""

The case fits my iPhone 5S (I purchased another case and it did not work with 5S.) very nicely/snugly . I kinda like the separate lightning plug when you want to charge the phone, because it's also a good way to share your extra juice with others without having to undo the case. This design allows you to charge your phone directly while charging your case at the same time. I understand others do not like having to charge with two different cables, but I think it allows for a faster charging of both (Although, it would be nice if the case uses the same lightning plug. But I found most cases don't.) Yes, it's a bit bulky, but it does feel nice in your hand and if it also means I get extra charges, I can deal with it. The material used is smooth, but doesn't feel like it's going to slip out of your hand. The camera and flash opening doesn't interfere with the photo's taken (Other cases I've owned sometimes blurred my photos.) I like the extra color face plate thrown in as well.

Small problem, plastic pry broke when trying to take out battery due to the super glue Apple used to hold it down. Had to use a knife and ever so gingerly try to pry it out without damaging the phone. Punctured the battery and a whisp of smoke came out (I thought I was doomed at that point). But, after finally getting the old battery out and installing the new one, it worked perfect (starting at a charge of 69%). After charging for about a half hour to 45 minutes. It was fully charged and ready to go. Also, be aware of the contact points of the battery. Some videos make it look as if it will come loose after just removing the screw. It does need a little prying from the top and bottom (be sure to use the plastic pry only).",3670,0 +3671,"Great item Very Happy + +I got mine shipped from Amazon came in 2 days had my Iphone back in gear in 3. You gotta watch a Youtube video to do this replacement right. I think buying just the glass is the most cost efficient way to get your Iphone screen replaced.",3671,1 +3672,"This is what works and what does not. + +I work in wireless and have extensive experience with ATT. There's some confusion here so I thought I'd give my two cents.Each ATT prepaid comes with a prepaid SIM. You can take a contract sim into a prepaid phone but not into any newer high end phone.MEID are unique to every phone and ATT does not sell a prepaid Iphone, nor any top of the line Android, and DOES not sell any prepaid phone that accesses their 4g HSPA or their LTE (that's a whole other story) Therefore, a prepaid sim, which is never used in any contract phone, (i.e Samsung Galaxy S3, Iphone, Motorola Atrix, HTC One X) WILL NOT WORK for 4g DATA yet.... ATT flags the against SIM/ICCID (which is a 3g sim) and cuts you off. (People did this with a few years ago with the Iphone until ATT got their act together)Where it DOES work is if you are contract customer and need to buy a prepaid and have it activated under your old number, under contract. I.e. you don't want to buy the absurd, non-subsidized price for an un activated phone because you destroyed, ran over, lost, dropped in toilet, strapped phone to C4, set on fire, ETC to your old phone.Or, take an old Moto Razr from your closet and go to an ATT store and get a courtesy sim.That being said; considering how many holes there are in ATT's system pretty much anything is possible. There are numerous loopholes that I won't divulge here; but suffice to say ATT system isn't exactly the most fraud proof. GSM is more flexible but far more exposed to fraud.Now Verizon, that's another story. CDMA works differently. Sprint, US Cellular, and their prepaid arms are a whole nother story.",3672,0 +3673,"Bling Bling! + +This case arrived today and is sooo beautiful. It is, however, missing a toe.

Very snug, though it slips on easily. The Kindle DX by itself feels great in the hands, with this cover it is different but still very nice. Doesn't impact the Kindle's functionality or readability in any way.Doesn't cover the screen, of course, so doesn't actually protect it from a blow the way a full cover would. It doesn't need to be ""opened"" to use the Kindle - you just pick up your Kindle and go. That convenience, plus the light weight, is what convinced me to go with this skin rather than a cover. (Plus, the price is much lower than a cover.)The included anti-scratch protector should protect it from small scratches, and installs very easily.",3674,0 +3675,"I would give this zero stars if I could. + +Horrible design. Cable not shown in picture. Also, no instructions came with the phone. As most would probably not read the instructions anyways, it does not mention if the battery has to be charged initially (I imagine it would). Also, the case won't protect the phone let alone hold the phone in place. The cost is very expensive for this poor design.Most importantly, MotoX phone does NOT have a replaceable battery!!! As I was in a rush to put the battery on the phone, I removed the back of my MotoX phone only to my horror find out that the battery of the MotoX is embedded into the phone. The back case is not meant to be removed though I did it instinctively as all of my other phones have their back cases come off.The back case of the phone is attached to the circuit board of the MotoX by a very flexible cable. DO NOT PULL THIS CABLE OFF OF THE PHONE! However, if you do pull the cable off like I did, it can be reinserted back into the socket on the circuit board. There are two sockets near each other. This flexible cable would go into the socket that is empty (the other one will have a similar flexible cable in it). The flexible cable goes into the same side as the one already in place. To allow the socket to take the cable into it, you must gently, and I mean gently, lift the tiny piece of rubber with your finger nail until it barely moves upwards on the socket.You slide the end of the flexible cable into the socket and then position the rubber piece back to its original position with your finger nail. Tug lightly on the cable to make sure it is not loose. Then just snap the back cover onto the phone .End result, extended power design is flawed. I'm returning mine immediately and will just keep an extra lithium ion battery charger with me instead of this terrible product.",3675,0 +3676,"Best Bluetooth headset this sound engineer has tried + +My husband is a freelance TV sound engineer, so he knows about audio equipment. Here is his review of the Jabra Street2 Bluetooth headset:I jog and enjoy music from my iPod Touch.As a sound engineer, I was very happy with the music clarity from this Bluetooth headset. I was even able to hear lyrics I hadn't been able to hear before. Oh, it's Tiny DANCER, not Tony Danza!The unit's ability to switch between two Bluetooth devices--from my iPod to my cell phone--and back again is a very useful feature. If I get a call while I'm running, I only have to press one button to make the music pause AND answer the cell phone. Just one button to do both! Another push finishes the call and gets the music going again. I tried it with two phones, one of them an Android, and it worked well with both. I imagine it would also work well with an iPhone, although I haven't been able to test it on one.The amplification is great. It's the loudest Jabra Bluetooth headset I've tried, and I've tried several. I like that Jabra realized it looks like 'dog tag' and went all the way with that look, giving it a dog tag chain. Not only does it look good, but the chain means I know it won't fall off. I have tries the Jabra Clipper Bluetooth stereo headset, and this unit is so much better in all areas: volume, clarity, more buttons for more functions, handles two Bluetooth devices at once and switches between then with just one button, and it's both easy to clip on and has a chain so you're not going to drop it.I think the charge lasts for about 6-8 hours of use. You could use any stereo head set or ear buds, but I found the supplied ear buds comfortable. They fit in my ear well and block most surrounding noises. The headset has interchangeable rubber ear buds to fit different ear sizes. I really enjoy using this headset and would recommend over any other Bluetooth headset I've tried.",3676,1 +3677,"watch out for the retraction. + +Can confirm that it charges the Thundbolt without any problem.

First, let me say that Amazonwireless is great. It was my first time buying anything from that site. I contacted customer support with some questions I had, and the woman I spoke to was friendly, knowledgable and extremely helpful. The website stated the phone was on backorder and would take 2 to 4 weeks to arrive. Imagine my surprise when it showed up 2 days later! That's where it all went downhill, however. The phone was hard to navigate. I was told that it supported wifi, which I later found out it did not. I had no intention of paying for a data plan for the phone, which is why I chose it over a smart phone. The touch screen was so sensitive that I called voicemail numerous times (accidentally) and accessed the web browser numerous times unintentionally. After carefully locking the screen (with the button on the side), I place the phone in my purse. I wasn't even out my door when the phone started making noise inside my purse. Somehow, the voice activation had been activated. I was told that one of the big advantages of having this phone was the fact that it is very hard to activate the screen while it is locked. That, obviously, was not true. I have an iPod touch and assumed the touch screen of the Brightside would be similar; I was wrong! Directly touching it isn't necessary for an icon to be selected; simply getting close to it will cause things to start popping up. I hung up calls I was on several times simply because my cheek brushed against the phone while I was talking on it. The screen is FAR too sensitive. It wasn't 20 minutes after activating the phone before I was ready to send it back--which I did the next day. I have no idea why this phone got such good reviews; it was terrible! I don't think I will get another touch screen phone again, unless it is an actual smartphone. The good news is, I contacted customer support and told them how much I hated the phone. They emailed me the return slips and I sent the phones back. I sent the phones back on Monday, and today they processed the return, refunded my money (all 2 cents of it), and contacted Verizon for me to cancel the account upgrade so I am able to get new phones.

Both extremes of the same dilemma - the case causes unpredictable and unreliable use of the rocker and power button.Thankfully, a return and refund has been granted with no difficulty and not at my expense. Just be aware with this specific i-Blason Samsung Galaxy S4 Active SoftGel Flexible TPU Case.",3693,1 +3694,"Great phone with one major flaw + +I have enjoyed everything about this phone, except for one major flaw, which some other reviewers have also mentioned. The earpiece volume is extremely low. If I am anywhere with any noise at all (in the car, outdoor event with noise, etc.), I cannot hear what the other person is saying to me. It is so bad, that I am going to have to return this phone. I was hoping that I just had a faulty unit, but some of the reviewerss mentioned that they have gotten their's replaced, and they are all the same. I don't use an earpiece, so if you primarily do us one, this may not be a big issue for you.It is a wonderful phone, otherwise. But, this is too major of a fault, to keep the phone.",3694,0 +3695,"Only one word: Excellent! + +I bought it as an all-in-one solution:phone/office/email/navigation/pmp and own it for almost two months now.I don't regret one cent I spent for it.The DESIGN is one of most simple yet elegant on the market and you have to hold it yourself in your hand to see how it feels as I can't express the feeling ;).Perhaps one thing I appreciate the most is the BATTERY LIFE. Wifi on for almost the whole week-end and still had enough juice for the next monday.Allthough the size of the screen is not as big as a PDA screen, it is still big enough for enjoying some movies (divx also) while travelling. I installed TOMTOM on it and it's great for navigation! It's true that it doesn't have gps built-in (I had to use my bluetooth gps receiver for navigation) but it's a fair compromise compared to all the other features it provides.It connects to almost EVERYTHING. The only problem I had was related to the fact that it doesn't support ""IP passthrough"" (for sharing internet connection through the data cable provided and the Nokia Network Bridge software). It also doesn't support ""PAN bluetooth"" for connecting to bluetooth networks, but this will not make me rate it with less than 5 stars.I will not go through all the features and apps which can be installed on it, as other reviewers already did this. And I cannot agree with the previous 1 star rate, the ""symptoms"" described lead to lack of knowledge rather than a ""bad PDA"".It doesn't have touchscreen, that's true, but I didn't feel the need for such a feature, considering also the size of the screen. And remember, a touchscreen comes with its own disadvantages: the screen loses brightness in sunny environments due to the extra layers it adds. Choice is yours.. ;)Although it has an average browser, I installed the free Opera Mini which comes as a freeware and is reacher in features.The Symbian OS platform has been on the market for a loooong looooong time, and there is a diverse choice of apps and games including the ones from the third parties. There are two things to keep in mind when searching the right app for your needs: it has to support the Series 60 (S60) version 3 (or Symbian 9.1a) and it has to fit the 320x240 resolution (as the reversed - 240x320 is usually most popular amongst the nokias).I owned other smartphones and PDAs, including Palm, Nokia and Blackberry, but I feel that E61i is the ONE for me. I recommend it without any hesitations. Enjoy the elegant and powerful E61i ;)",3695,0 +3696,"Good for the price.. + +Just received this today and I am pretty happy with it. It reminds me of the Seidio Active Case that I've used for my Samsung Galaxy S2. You have 2 layers. One soft silicon skin style case and a more rigid snap on back cover. It adds a little bit of thickness but it doesn't bother me knowing that my expensive device has a little more protection. The rubbery feel of the silicon case makes me feel like I have a better grip on the device.The added kickstand is nice. Mine only locks closed from one little plastic tab on the top of the stand nearer to the camera. From constant use, I can see it, eventually, breaking. Two tabs, one on opposite ends, would have been better.The holster works on sliding the phone in and out from the top. It is felt lined where the screen would be located. It is very snug to the point that if my phone was inserted all the way in, I have a difficult time taking it out. I don't think it will loosen over time since, I feel the friction is coming from the silicon case rubbing against plastic holster. I noticed if you don't push it all the way in, it's easier to take out and still feels secure. I cannot comment on the durability of the clip since I haven't put it thru its paces yet.For the price I think it's pretty good. The one thing I wish they would change is the way the holster works. I much prefer the spring loaded clip on the top for ease of removal of the device like the Seidio has.",3696,0 +3697,"Great phone, worth the money + +This phone just recently replaced my Samsung Reclaim and I am much happier with it. It's obviously good for messaging due to the slide out keyboard but you can also use the touch keyboard on the main screen. The keys are sized decently and I like that the messages are stored according to sender/recipient so you can follow all the texts in conversational mode. The battery time is decent and the phone doesn't take too long to charge up.The touch aspect is fairly good but you may want to order a screenguard when purchasing as it seems to smudge even more quickly then other phones. The phone also displays a list of bubble messages so you can see missed calls and texts right there on the home screen. The sound quality is fine and I've ridden up a hi-rise elevator without losing a single call. The keys and touch screen also vibrate when you use them and the phone offers touch calibration for better, easier usage.The phone itself is a decent weight, not too heavy but certainly you'll know if it's not in your pocket.Overall I'm grateful to the geek squad for screwing up my Reclaim or I'd never have picked this one up. Excellent phone for simple everyday usage.",3697,0 +3698,"Looks like the real thing! + +I was a bit apprehensive when ordering this case because there were no other reviews. But I kept coming back to it.I finally ordered it and I love it. It has everything I wanted. I needed a little bit more room on the wallet side and that's where the others fell short. I have ordered several cases but this is by far my favorite. There is room for 3 id/credit cards, 6 if you double up. Plus room for bills. The most important part is the snap-in case. Easy access to the front of the phone. No pushing strips of leather to the side to type. And it's secure. The case fits the iphone 4s perfectly; the buttons, charger, etc.- perfect! The phone is totally protected. I get lots of compliments on it and it is a very nice faux ostrich with a nice feel.

It may seem to some as though all screen protectors for the iPhone 3GS are equally well-made, but it is not so. Some of the cheap ones are just awful. I tried several makes of screen protectors for my workhorse 3GS and they were terrible. Streaks and optical flaws, and built-in dirt that guarantees bubbles.These Halos install on the iPhone with few or zero bubbles. It appears to me that most bubbles are caused by dust particles either on the screen or on the screen protector as the product of poor manufacturing. After painstakingly cleaning and re-cleaning the screen of my iPhone, some of the cheap protectors nonetheless caused bubbles galore. My first use of the Halo, by contrast, went on almost bubble-free. These protectors have a slight ""frost"" finish which eliminates glare. At first I was not sure if I liked that, but after using it, I prefer it. Further, these protectors have a pleasant, high-quality texture to them when touching the screen; the best I have found among screen protectors. Some of the cheap ones feel, well, cheap. An additional bonus is that you get 4 of these in one pack (I know, the Amazon ""item"" says 3. I got 4.) This is a good deal for the money.Highly recommended for the iPhone 3G/3GS.

It didnthug my ear well enough to hold it in place, an adjustable band for the ear to for it tohold better. It does pick up everything well, everyone heard me talking, just hearing theothers was the problem.Basically if you live with people who talk loud or are alot of talking or noises in the house itsnot a great headset for that, even music being played is hard to hear.

I received the item one day late, but I cannot tell if it was the fault of USPS or the seller.The case is two pieced, the soft rubbery piece goes on first, and the hard plastic piece attaches on top of that. The case fits the device overall and provides good protection. The hard piece is textured and provides some grip. All the covered buttons and port holes work well.My brother didn't like the hole on the back which left the Apple logo exposed and unprotected.

Motorola's Crystal Talk technology has the most clear, natural sound quality, and this phone has plenty of volume for even noisier environments.The phone also physically feels like a quality product, unlike most other ""free if you upgrade"" phones. It is not classified as a PDA phone, so you can get the $15 unlimited data plan. Unlike many phones with similar features, there is no lag as you browse through the menu system.Three minor complaints, which may be due to the AT&T; specific firmware:1.

They came with three different sizes of ear piece inserts which gives you a nice and snug fit. They do sit a little funny in your ears so it may take a few times wearing them to get used to it.

It's is arguable that it is mainly a phone but its functions says otherwise. I use it as a tablet first for prodction, school work, etc. then phone secondary, for, of course, for communication/text, calls, etc. It is the a perfect size if you don't think of it as a phone only (and folks seem intimidated by "big phones").I won't get into the techncial specifics but basically, it's the same as Samsung Galaxy SII with little exceptions. I've upgraded to OS JellyBean, and love the extras in the stylus however, the stylus can go a little out of control on keyboards.I don't like how the power button is positioned exactly opposite the volume control on the other side of the phone. I clasp the device, using my thumb to powerup/down but find that my other four fingers are latched onto the volume control. Hard to keep away from, so it calls for using 2 hands (which I'm trying to avoid if I'm not using it as a tablet). S Note app is a bit annoying. I don't need to use a template but it won't let me create a note without one (at lease I haven't figured out how to control that yet).Nevertheless, the device runs and displays my applications very well. I am encouraged to watch Netflix, and run bigger apps with ease.

I am not careless, but in case of an accidental drop or something, then my phone was protected. I got the Armor series case for my Iphone 5, cause I plan to keep it a while and wanted good protection until my next phone. I found that it was real tough and durable, not cheap feeling. Some people complain about it's bulkiness, but it feels the same as the defender series, just without the holster clip. It looks great and feels great, plus the lanyard for the wrist is a good addition too for holding the phone while using it often at once. Sound quality to talk is my only disappointment. I'm not a big talker but it is hard for others to hear you, as a posed to you hearing them. A good bluetooth device will help with that if you are a talker and have this problem, or ear pods with apple work well. Picture quality is still great with the glass covering over the lens. Buttons aren't too hard to use especially the touch screen. The port coverings for the headphones and charging port are a bit snug to open, but that's due to the real tight protection of the case to seal out the elements. I give it a 4 star rating due to call receivers having a hard time hearing you. A bit pricey for it to have any problem.",3711,0 +3712,"Seems to last as long as original Moto battery + +Bought this battery since my original Moto battery doenst hold a charge for as long as it used to.

Sound output quality is good, a little weird when talking on the phone in stereo, and no-one has complained that I sound bad.iPod integration is through the included streamer. Again, very good quality, and the lack of wires are a good selling point. Audiophiles will surely have a different opinion, but then how stupid do they look walking on the street with giant cans on their heads?Listening to music on my iBook is fine, movies are a problem. The delay is unbearable, and makes it very frustrating to watch a DVD with the streamer. I couldn't successfully get the headset to work with the iBook on Bluetooth mode, it would pair but kept coming up with error messages. So that ruled out using the X5 microphone for Skype.Finally, the PSP played through the headset, but the square button to talki in SOCOM didn't work.

I used it as a regular speakerphone in my office and people said they heard me better than on my iPhone 4s. Nice. The fact it charges via USB means no battery hassles, but beware that there is no clear indicator of the battery life.For sound, obviously this isn't stereo, but provides the sound quality of a nice radio. Enough that you can hear and enjoy the sound but not an immersive experience. This keeps the tunes going poolside or while taking a shower.

It is an app that functions much like the hand held GPS units golfers use to measure distances on a golf course, except it keeps your score and stats as you go. Also uploads all info to the GolfShot website. Anyway, there is not enough battery power in the iPhone to operate this app for a complete round of golf-thus the need for the Energizer. With the energizer, there is plenty of power. I use it often just to recharge my iPhone on the go, I travel with it and so on.Pros - Holds its charge for a long time. You can charge the unit and pick it up several weeks later and it is still charged and ready to go. You can leave and use the iPhone in it if you please. Light weight. Fits phone perfectly. Is attractive and not clunky at all. I saw a review on YouTube where the guy said that if you held it upside down the iPhone fell out. The connection on mine is tight and secure. The YouTube reviewer also said there was no charge indicator on the unit but it does have an indicator light. No problems.

Do your research. + +[Edit - Jan 24, 2010 Update:Two firmware updates a couple weeks ago so after testing, time for an update: If you NEED bluetooth like I do and don't plan to carry two phones/devices to have bluetooth available, read on.So little progress has been made and I have seen far too many bugs/enhancements closed as WONTFIX that I am dropping this to 1-star based on current state, 2 updates and price to value in comparison with other devices that have launched/will launch in the next month or so. I'll change the rating depending on next update - length of wait will be factored in. I see a lot of bashing for people who give low reviews so I expect I'll hear about this.I'll start by quoting Nokia from bug 6766 regarding bluetooth problems on the phone. This came after the major PR1.1 update:""As far as making all issues go away, I don't think that's physically possible since Bluetooth and WLAN share the same antenna in the N900. Some WLAN operations, such as searching for access points, take over the antenna almost completely.""All the bluetooth bugs still exist, some are made worse by PR1.1.Note: regardless of what people say, there is NO way, zero, none, nada, to turn off the wifi radio via graphical interface. You can probably do so via CLI if you are very advanced with Linux and not worried about re-flashing, but that's not practical. You can take several steps to make it ""less active"", but it is still running - easiest to see is choose ""Internet Connections"" from the status area and it will show all wifi APs even though you think it is disabled. Nokia closed an enhancement request to allow customers to fully disable the wifi radio as WONTFIX.The major update of the two, known as PR1.1, was eagerly awaited and expected to fix a lot of problems including the well known, very active, bluetooth bugs. Nothing I listed has been addressed and the firmware addressed a few minor things overall-nothing major. Important to note that the manifest list posted for PR1.1 lists A LOT of bugs as fixed that were actually fixed before the phone was released. I have noticed a lot of people's tones have changed since the disappointing update.PR1.1:Bluetooth: The PR1.1 update did help some who had a lot of issues with 'stuttering' on bluetooth (music and calls). For most of us, it didn't. One person who initially seemed happy and said he'd live with it came back a day or two later and said it's not fixed. Long story short, read bug 6766 on maemo's bug site. For me and others, PR1.1 has increased disconnections to a point that I don't bother trying to use BT now. It essentially disconnects immediately. When I was testing PR1.1, a couple times the connection lasted several minutes, but the majority is instant disconnect. If you need bluetooth, I would hold off.Portrait mode: They are working towards it, that's good. The browser has a partial implementation now (it's nice for one handed reading, good formatting, but not complete). Tip: you have to hit a combination of shift+ctrl+O to activate it; it works with keyboard slider in only. To disable, shift+ctrl+O again. However, I have 'remnants' of the future with my desktop sticking in portrait randomly requiring a restart. Not a huge deal unless you are in a hurry to make a call.USSD codes: The *#nnn#nnnnnn# to do many controls on your phone like say, enable full forwarding since it is not available in the interface or check prepaid balance, etc. etc. They fixed a couple codes: show your IMEI and show the software version (both available in settings | 'about phone' right next to each other). They closed this bug as fixed - a lot of very unhappy people on this one. I think Nokia (well, probably Maemo since they don't know phones yet) really underestimated how important this is - it is clear from the huge bug thread that a lot of the codes people need are surprising to them.Maps: It starts up a little quicker. A few minor tweaks that aren't worth mentioning. I was hoping I could at least do routing to an address. You can, but open your browser and go to google maps.Anything else I don't mention, there is nothing to mention. It was an underwhelming update that decreased battery life further, addressed several small issues. Some had ZERO votes and only 1 person involved with the ticket and it was very small - e.g. RDS name in the FM transmitter???. Clearly poor prioritization.Other stuff: The battery charges much faster now, but it also drains much faster. There are some great apps starting to show in the pipeline. A lot of hard work from the community going on and new things are showing up daily in devels and testing repositories. They just aren't hitting extras (production) fast enough.BTW - my review is not meant to be 'negative' - I am simply stating known issues that a potential buyer may not know. I just haven't repeated the positive or taken the speculative position of hoping to see the potential realized. My intent is very simple: provide a different view that isn't one of infatuation that simply repeats the specs on the Nokia site. Provide information that would have had me think twice before purchasing. I know what you might be thinking: would I repurchase it now? No. Not then and not now.End update]---------------------------I've had the N900 over a month so I'm familiar enough with the N900 now to write comfortably.I had high expectations and loved the N900 for the first 2-days. Every day since I've grown more disappointed. I should have sent it back for a refund w/in the first couple weeks (pre-ordered from Nokia). But, I was optimistic on the potential, which has withered as I've watched Nokia/Maemo do not-so-amazing things on [...]. The N900 is not complete - not even close. They've left out a lot of what we have grown to love and expect with other current smartphones (this really doesn't qualify as a tablet). Time on[...] has me very discouraged. They are very focused on Maemo 6 and it's obvious they consider Maemo 5 primarily in maintenance mode.I am still amazed that they released the N900 as is. Bugs, I expect, but I didn't expect it to be missing some very basic features that are now standard. I also didn't expect them to turn actual bugs into low priority enhancements or completely dismiss them as ""WONTFIX"".---------------------------------------Some quotes from Maemo/Nokia on [...]:If the reporter expects the feature to be officially supported then it is a WONTFIX [common comment]I think I can resolve this as WONTFIX entirely, since the feature can be perfectly covered by the community. [This is to create a function to disable/enable wifi]Isn't ""Settings -> About"" a more user-friendly way to look up the same? [This is about the lack of support of using USSD codes - simply weird]---------------------------------------One review mentioned it's built with steel, aluminum, rubber and plastic. Wish I could find more than plastic. It is very 'plasticky', feels fat, heavy and it looks cheap - nothing like the picture. It looks & feels like a digital camera you might have purchased 5-years ago. How did DROID get essentially the same internals into such a thin form factor and Nokia managed to make it look 10-years old?There are many positives about the N900 (and it does have strong *potential*). Many were written about. I won't re-write them. However, I will note many 'gotchas' that you would not expect from a 'flagship' phone from any manufacturer. The aggregate of the gotchas add up to borderline unusable (in my opinion). I'm not going to list everything, but will put down what would have me think twice about buying. I should have waited for an update or two. I can't say it looks promising though.Below are known issues. One is not confirmed by Maemo/Nokia, but the majority are WONTFIX or being left to the ""community"" (i.e. not Maemo/Nokia) - with a couple pushed for *consideration* for Maemo 6 (Harmattan). Bluetooth they ""think"" may be fixed in a future update. USSD codes they seem to be looking at (but haven't seen a confirmation of fix).I have noticed Nokia leaves it for the community to implement many basic features. Why would they bother with basic features for one of the most expensive phones out there? Even if you want an open platform and are familiar with Maemo, you wouldn't (least I don't) expect them to push so much to be done by the community. Android doesn't take things that far - sure, it's 'mostly' open, but they package the basics with the Android builds.- OS: It appears Fremantle (Maemo 5 that comes on the N900) is essentially in maintenance mode already. I've spent weeks on[...] and watched as they apply ""WONTFIX"" to many basic features that were reported as missing, marked true bugs as enhancements and low priority (e.g. doesn't allow you to use USSD codes - *#...#), sent enhancement requests to their ""brainstorming"" site, and many requests they accept are assigned to *possible* Harmattan (Maemo 6) inclusion.What does this mean? It's possibly outdated already.- LINUX: Better know Linux. Due to the lack of settings and missing granularity in those that exist, you'll need to know Linux to make many changes/check certain settings. If you do, it's just a pain to make changes via the terminal rather than using a GUI.- SETTINGS: There are very few settings. The settings that exist have very little granularity. No easy wifi on/off, only two profiles (general and silent) with very little available to configure. Click 3-4 times just to change the display brightness. No way to set a 'home' desktop that you and I are used to -nor is there a way to get to a particular desktop easily besides using both hands and swiping. Plenty more.- BLUETOOTH: Nearly unusable. There are two major, known issues: 1) it uses the same antennae as WiFi so if you have wifi on (takes 7-steps to disable it fully), bluetooth headsets are unusable: too much static heard on both ends, A2DP music has static and pauses, file transfers run around 20kbps and disconnect often. 2) Constantly disconnects. Live in a state/country where you must use hands-free while driving? Don't like holding the phone to your ear for long calls? Want to type while on the phone? Want mobility while you talk? You can't. It disconnects anywhere from instantly to several minutes. Upon disconnection, the sound doesn't transfer to the handset. It normally takes a power cycle to get things reoriented.- WIFI: Looking for an easy way to disable wifi when not using it? Sorry, we're not talking 1-2 steps for Android or 3 for iPhone, it takes 7-steps to disable (you have to assume it's disabled - no way to tell if the radio is off and maemo/Nokia haven't said for sure) and re-enable. Reported as a bug on [...] - they consider it an enhancement, pushed it off to Harmanttle as possible inclusion and said they'll let the community write something for Maemo 5 (nothing in the pipeline as of this writing). Hope you don't need to disable/enable wifi often.- BLUETOOTH KEYBOARD: Sorry. Several other smartphones support, but the N900 doesn't. I have an N810 and many of us expected the N900 to take its place as a tablet, but with a phone. Nokia/Maemo's official response? Not supported it and it won't be. They've marked several submitted bugs on this as WONTFIX. There is a way to get a BT keyboard to pair (if you know Linux), but don't bother, it doesn't support typical PC-105 layout and only some letters will work.- LANDSCAPE: I didn't think landscape would be that bad. It supports portrait in phone (if you can get it to move to portrait), but that's it. It is a BIG pain, especially if you want to use the device with one hand. Just entering a 5-digit PIN to unlock with one hand is very difficult. It might be livable, but the implementation is very poor.- MAIL FOR EXCHANGE (MfE): Far too many bugs to mention here. Barely usable - supports HTML now, but a few steps backward everywhere else. I'll hit a few: Doesn't properly map fields (both contacts and calendar), doesn't synchronize updates properly, doesn't seem to properly support the EAS protocol in general, won't properly synch with Google's EAS implementation (they said this isn't supported), etc.- MAPS: Can't use maps without a network connection. If you download map files - still no go. Also, Ovi Maps 1.0 takes ~10-minutes (sometimes longer) to locate your position. GPS is on, but Maps shows it's not active much of the time. I've found no way to route to an address; only two options: point to it on a map or type in a city/state/country in a search dialog - can't search for an address. Very slow. Pretty much useless unless you want to know you are sitting on the right couch. No clue what Nokia was thinking with this.- GPS/CAMERA: If you want proper geo-tagging, you'll need to buy another device. GPS on, but photo is not tagged. It will tag sometimes if you have network positioning on.- BASICS: Are you looking for standard/basic functionality that your other phones you've had over the last few years have? The N900 is missing a lot. Far too many to list, but in addition to what's already been mentioned a few are: word suggestion is poor with no auto-correct (even a standalone ""i"" is not capitalized and it doesn't work in some areas), can't use USSD codes, no unconditional call forwarding, can't select different ring tone for contacts, can't mark contacts to automatically go to VM, can't change amount of ring time before going to VM, etc.- EMAIL CLIENT: Tinymail-based (not bad). Very poor implementation and the email client is very limited. Can't highlight text and copy, doesn't synch any folder but inbox and sent (you can view other IMAP folders, but if you delete an item - it's gone for good - no synch and no trash on N900, drafts stay on phone, etc.). Maemo/Nokia are on record saying this will never happen because ""it's too complex"" (common saying[...]), but look for it in Harmattan - maybe. Doesn't auto-fill/suggest as you type a name in TO/CC/BCC. No choice to return to inbox after deleting a message - you can only view the next message.- EMAIL CLIENT: Have to confirm each and every delete. There is no option to remove confirmation. If you deal with a high volume of email, it's a big irritant. It's been submitted as an enhancement request with Nokia's current response as ""It would be interesting to how popular such request is"" :-/ Weird that such basic functionality in every email client (mobile or not) that I can think of isn't on the N900 or its roadmap.Very poor email client - worst I've seen on a mobile device in years.This doesn't include all issues, but the review is long enough. Hopefully it helps with a bit of a different perspective by someone who has gotten over the infatuation and spent a lot of time working with Nokia/Maemo.",3725,0 +3726,"Worst possible quality + +This product is a terrible screen protector.It is made out of a material similar to that of cheap window decals, and is impossible to apply without bubbles.I am very good at applying screen guards without bubbles, but it was impossible to do with this item.I would strongly suggest buying another product!",3726,0 +3727,"Don't waste your money + +Don't waste your money first of all its not the cover in the picture that they will send you its totally different.The cover is cheap and fits on the phone very loose its a wast of money at any price.",3727,0 +3728,"New Trent battery backup case for iPhone 3gs + +This case comes packaged well.

Very Pleased. + +I have been looking at getting a wooden case for my iPhone 5 because I think they look really cool. I had stumbled on the eimolife series of wooden cases here on Amazon and decided to take a shot with this one. I thought the compass design was neat and $20 didn't seem too bad considering it says it is originally listed at $60.My main concern was the fit, since it is wooden and doesn't stretch to fit the phone like other silicone cases do. I just wanted it to fit the phone snugly and securely, and for it to not slide around. In that respect, the case is excellent. My phone slid into the case perfectly and when the bottom part locks in, it doesn't move around at all.I was also concerned about how easy it would be to remove the case, since other reviews had expressed dissatisfaction with other eimolife wooden cases. It did take me a second to figure out exactly how you're supposed to do it, but now I can take it on and off fine without much trouble.The only other thing to note would be that the color of the wood in the picture is much lighter than the case I received. Honestly, I had liked the lighter color on some of the other cases, but wanted the compass design, so I did not have a problem with that. I just think that the actually lightness/darkness of the wood will vary from case to case.Overall, I'm very happy with it. It looks fantastic and I've received several compliments. I would definitely recommend the case.",3729,0 +3730,"NOT a U.S. Version...as stated... + +This is my first review ever. This is also the first time I have ever ordered something from Amazon that was not what I expected.The phone does work. It was also new, as stated. Works fine. This does not appear to be a US version though.1.) The included manual has a table of contents going up to page 100+... The last page of the manual cuts off at page 80-something. It also says in the back to contact Motorola-Asia for assistance. Not a deal breaker, but this may indicate the level of detail of the seller.2.) I say this does not appear to be a US version because I have two (2) used U.S. Razr v3's in my briefcase right now and this is just not quite the same. This seems it might be a U.K. version.My 2 previously purchased US versions do NOT have the extra button above the wheel/pad. This seems to be the only visual distinction...which results in...No such things as ""missed calls"" on this phone. It is classified as a Received Call, but either has a ""check"" or ""no check"" next to the entry seemingly indicative of it being a missed call or not.Speed dial assignments (1 though 9) are 4 digit values (1001 through 1009).Cannot lock Smart Key on phone exterior.No light illuminated when charging.""Center"" is spelled ""Centre""Installed graphics are not even remotely the same.Doesn't seem that time will auto-set.Doesn't even use the same battery part # as my 2 other U.S.-purchased phones.That is why I do not believe this to be a U.S. Version phone as stated.I am not very happy about this.

The case is just beautiful as well.",3731,0 +3732,"Great holster/case + +Fits my Samsung Galaxy S5 perfectly and provides good protection for the phone. I had the opportunity to compare this holster to a friend's Otter box (also on an S5), and I am happy that I selected this one instead.Pros:- Inexpensive - Otter boxes range in price from $30 - $60 and do not offer much more protection than this one.- Thin design - does not add too much bulk to the phone and is much thinner than the Otter box; with the Otter box, it is difficult to swipe down from the top of the screen to access notifications, settings, etc. With this one, the charging port dust cover is easily accessible without the need for long fingernails (like you need with the Otter box).- It's also thin enough to be able to use inductive wireless Qi charging pads (I use the S5 PWRcard - Qi Wireless Charging Receiver and a number of chargers - see discussion below).- Fits into the belt clip snuggly, but it's not too difficult to remove for use.- Belt clip has a robust feel to it and attaches to my belt very securely. Clip rotates 180 degrees (i.e., top of phone can point to the front or the back while in the holster on my belt)Cons:- Difficult to use the heartbeat sensor on this one (but easier than the Otter box).- Kick stand is difficult to use (probably because I don't use it enough to break it in).- Very difficult to remove once it's on the phone - almost to the point of needing tools to pry it off to access the battery/SD card/SIM card.In summary, very happy with this purchase - even more so considering the low price I paid for it.

The first, a Samsung 245g flip phone has a screen just too small to use for anything beyond short and simple texts. Next up was the LG840g. Nice touchscreen operation, but I found the onscreen keyboard a bit awkward, and felt like I needed to carry it a holster rather than my front pocket. The new LG440G is a good compromise. It is a bit larger, when closed, than the Samsung, but with a considerably larger and sharper screen, making texts and emails much easier to read. The 3g connection downloads emails fairly quickly so you don't burn a lot of minutes checking messages. Call quality is fine, and the signal strength is about average, meaning spotty in my home; just something I have to live with, I guess! All in all, I am very happy with my twenty dollar investment. The phone and the Tracfone prepaid costs fit my needs very well. I cannot see myself ever returning to a traditional carrier.",3735,0 +3736,"Another would-be-nice machine killed by Microsoft Windows OS + +I bought this about a year ago freshky released. we have other phones in the house(Nokia) with bluetooth and same resolution camera to compare too. the result is that HP 6315 has- zero battery life (bad Windows power management)- bad camera (same hardware low res cvamera takes great pics on Nokia)- disfunctional blootooth (would not talk to any computer really (Nokia does)- it restarts by itself in the middle of conversation- bad sound quality in speaker and ear piece.Windows even managed to corrupt my SD extension card with my pm3 musics ...just total junk - stay away from WIndows Mobile and other Microsoft products.",3736,0 +3737,"Reasonable sound quality from a very compact speaker; sticker price is a little high + +I got this off Amazon on sale for $35, which I think is a fair price for it. Initial impressions are that the device seems pretty solidly built and well-designed, with the possible exception of the battery cover (see below).The bluetooth setup is as easy as you'd expect, and the playback buttons on top are self-explanatory and function appropriately with my iPhone. With my iPhone 4 over Bluetooth, there is near-zero static or artifact; fidelity may be marginally better with the cable hookup, but the difference is so subtle that it's not worth the hassle.The sound quality is surprisingly good for a speaker its size, which is to say, very small (two 1 3/8"" drivers housed in a 3.25""x7""x1.5"" enclosure); commensurate with its dimensions, the bass is acceptable at near range, and vocals are acceptably crisp and remain so halfway across the room. Violin ensembles sound mildly/moderately staticky at times, if you're into that sort of thing. There is a ""stereo-widening"" button which I guess is supposed to provide some sort of ""bigger room"" effect, but in my opinion it just over-enhances the mid-range frequencies and makes it sound like you're in a bathroom -- so I leave it off.For $35, I'm very happy with it and I'd give it four stars. I will be mostly using it for background music when I'm doing chores, cleaning, etc. Had I bought it at its manufacturer's price of $99 (per spracht.com), I'd consider exchanging it for another product with a little more oomph.A few other minor annoyances to be aware of:- The flashing blue light (which tells you it's on, flashing briefly every 2-3 seconds) can get a little annoying after a while if you're planning on using this at your desk.- The battery cover is a little difficult to lock into place and feels a little cheap; but once it's in, it seems solidly in.- With the iPhone, when no one is calling you, the push-to-talk button will redial the last phone number you called, when it would make more sense for it to function the same way the button on a bluetooth headset does. (It supposedly picks up the phone call when someone calls you, so that you can use it as a phone speaker, although you'd still be using the iPhone's microphone.)==========ADDENDUM:4 months after I bought it, it's began to drain my batteries so quickly it's near-unusable.

The only problem I have had is the cable that comes with the device does not power the unit enough to give power to a keyboard or mouse.

If your device doesn't completely recharge from A, the manual says flip to B and continue charging.There is a DC 5V output port on the Energy Pack but a cable for it is NOT included.On the bottom of the Energy Pack is a convenient storage compartment.

The keys need to be like the keys on a Blackberry, i.e., individually raised and substantial. The surface is too flat to type comfortably. The ""well"" where the actual keyboard sits feels very deep compared to where the screen is for the phone. Meaning the distance is quite large. Add in the quirks of what to use for what and where things are, and what I found was that it was quite difficult and awkward to type.2. The keyboard section, in comparison to the bulk and heaviness of the rest of the unit, is too light and too thin. I wouldn't exactly say ""flimsy,"" because the unit is well built, but close. It was bending a bit under the weight of it all. Empty, it's fine, but put a phone in there and it's proportionally too heavy for it.3. It makes the iPhone feel like a brick, literally. So huge and heavy, like cell phones of yore. I couldn't imagine carrying it around like that. I complained about the 4S being so much heavier than the 3GS.

It has the best phone organizer that I've yet seen on a mobile phone.3. mp3 playerThe mp3 player is excellent considering that it's not the primary function of the handpiece. The only criticisms of the mp3 player are that you can only use proprietary SE earphones with it and that it is inconvenient to scroll through songs once the phone's keylock activates. Obviously you can't use it on the plane!4. 2megapixel cameraThis has the best camera I've seen on a mobile phone. Pictures are clear and large. It's obviously not camera aficionado quality, but perfect for those casual snaps that you may want to make, and the pictures turn out fine either uploaded to an online album or printed in regular size. It also takes video in .3gp format. The photos/video/mp3s are stored in the Sony Memory Stick Pro Duo which comes in sizes from 64MB all the way to 1GB.5.

Unfortunately that's where the power button is. I can leave the phone on and wait for it to time out, but meanwhile any accidental touch can dial, move icons, open an app, or worse. (In fairness, the description says some features may become inaccessible, but I did not expect the power to be among them.)Opening the case involves sliding apart the two halves of the outer frame completely off the case, then separating the front and back of the protective silicone case. It takes some time and coordination and, as the instructions warn, you can damage the seal if you don't exercise care when doing it.The best thing about this case is that it is waterproof but not bulky.

I had never broken a phone before, and panicked. A call to the local Verizon store discouraged me even further. Three hundreds dollars to fix it, and they didn't even have the part in stock?! Some more panicking and googling on my part, and I realized since my phone was still functional, I could fix it myself without having to be without it for a few days. (I'm a bit of an addict, I know.)I ordered this product because with Prime shipping I wouldn't have to worry about it taking three weeks to ship from China. I also ordered a heat gun and infrared thermometer since I didn't have those either. Total cost around 50 bucks, and now I have a heat gun and IR thermometer. Sweet.I watched a few Youtube videos and braced myself. It wasn't that bad. The heat gun is definitely faster than the hair dryer one guy used. You do need the thermometer though because it will heat it up in a jiffy. Bonus up side, I will no longer worry about my phone getting too hot in its case after blasting it to 200 degrees with a heat gun.The pry tools that came with the kit were all very handy, and I used all of them to get the screen off. I didn't have much use for the suction cup, but it didn't hurt. The cleaning cloth was a nice touch. I tried rubbing alcohol and paper towels at first to get the adhesive off. Don't do this. The paper towel left tiny scratch marks on the digitizer (not visible now, thank goodness) and the alcohol was not very effective. Do yourself a favor and get some Goo Gone.The screen itself is identical to the old one. I don't know why some people got blue backlights on their buttons. Mine are still white, not that I would have cared too much either way. The adhesive is just the tiniest bit thick. At first, I had some sensitivity issues because there was a tiny gap between the screen and the digitizer from the adhesive. Luckily, my case presses down on the screen and now it works just like before. If it hadn't, I would have tried using the heat gun on it again to see if that would melt it and thin it out some.If I had to do it over again, I would have used a hair dryer instead of the heat gun. I probably won't need the heat gun or thermometer again, because even if my screen breaks, now there will just be a thin strip of adhesive around the edge that will be much easier to remove.I did not use the screwdrivers or tweezers at all. I'm not sure why they're included because you would only need them if replacing the digitizer. It would make more sense to include them with that. Not that I'm complaining.Summary: Great product. Use a hair dryer and Goo Gone. You can do this. Don't waste your money at Verizon or anyone who charges you more than 100 bucks including shipping to replace just the glass on your phone.",3768,0 +3769,"Very Clear Screen Cover + +A great screen cove, if installed correctly you can't tell there is one there.My dog got a hold of my phone and chewed on it, I have an Incipio cover and these screen protectors on the screen.

First, it is awesome looking. Secondly, I am not a fan of the new Galaxy S 3 extremely rounded corners and this case creates the illusion of better corner(edge) aesthetics similar to that of the Galaxy 2. The case has a solid but very light feel, I am worried that it will not absorb the shock from a drop like the old Jelly case on my Galaxy Vibrant. That being said, I am not expert in this sort of thing. For all I know the materials from this Urban Armor Case could protect it better from a fall. All I know is the real world track record from my old Vibrant Jelly case and that after two years and a few serious falls... it is in immaculate condition. In the end I have high hopes for this new Urban Armor Case because I really really love it.Lastly - a few note worthy's of the Urban Armor Gear case .* The case is VERY snug against the S3. It will not fall out.* It actually is slightly thinner than the old Vibrant with it's jelly case. Meaning that it is not bulkier for me in my pocket.* The case is a little slippery : / .... on the plus side at least it slips easily into my pocket.* After I got the case and put my phone into it I was worried that the side buttons would be too hard to press. Actually they work GREAT, feel GREAT! No problems.* The case is lightweight, unique and awesome. Hopefully it performs the way it looks when I need it the most.p.s. - I did not put on the screen protector it came with, I hate those things. But here is a tip. I always put my phone in my (empty) left front jean pocket. If you put your phone in your front right... you are risking your screen to scratches. The rivets on most jeans will scrape against your screen, especially from the ""coin pocket"" rivets on the right pockets.- UPDATE 01/12/13 -After several months and some serious accidental drops onto the concrete (getting out of my SUV, pocket, slipping out of my hands etc), I am confident in this case protecting my phone. In fact the case is like new, without any signs of scuffs or cracks. This case has been seriously great so far.",3780,0 +3781,"Love it but there is a problem! + +The phone is awesome!

I cleaned my phone thoroughly and consistently used the dust removal stickers to no avail. Dust still got underneath, and bubbles still formed. After trying for a half an hour to push the bubbles outward, all it did was create a smaller one in it's wake.Dry applicant screen protectors are some of the worst you could choose.

If you're not picky about bubbles, or a terrible looking screen, then feel free, it'll keep your phone safe, but it'll look like a mess.",3782,0 +3783,"Latest, but Unfortunately NOT the Greatest... + +I am very picky when it comes to electronics. I like new stuff, cutting edge technology, in other words I always want Latest and Greatest. However, I never hurry things, and take my time doing research and analysis before I buy anything. For the most part I've been pretty happy with what I got - HDTV LCD, DVD players, digital cameras, computer accessories, etc. Recently I have purchased a new cell phone (Panasonic X800 smartphone), and decided to get a Bluetooth headset to go along with it. I spent probably about 2-3 weeks reading, analyzing, comparing before making a final decision to go with Jabra JX10. It's been 2 months now since I've bought it, and I am more than convinced that I haven't made the right choice. Here is why in the form of Pros and Cons. First, the good things:Pros:Design (also see Cons) - It's not a bad looking set, although I think it could be better. It's definitely small, which doesn't make you look like a cyborg, and has a nice color combination. It is also lightweight, which is not a bad thing either.Incoming Sound Quality - I can hear people just fine. Loud, and clear (for the most part).Cons:Design - I am not sure who named Jacob Jensen the ""world's renowned designer"". Perhaps he is very famous in Denmark. But over here, in US, he is just another name. Is it me or does this headset look like a little fish? So much for that ""Famous"" Design. I mean, it's not a bad looking set (I've definitely seen worse), but I've just heard so many people talking about the ""Wow Factor"", that I was expecting to see something a little more appealing.Outgoing Sound Quality - Every single person I have talked to when using this headset, complained about poor sound quality. I've heard comments like ""I can't hear you"", or ""You sound like you are in a tunnel"", or other typical things that people say when they can't hear you well enough. So much for the DSP technology.Operating Range - I like to wear my phone, using a belt clip, on the right side of my body. I like to have a Bluetooth headset in my left ear. What is the advertised working range of this headset? 33 feet if I'm not mistaken. In any case, what's the distance between it and the phone? 1 - 1.5 feet... Well, I have noticed quite an increase in sound quality, if I wear it on the same side with my phone. How about that?! And yes, I have tried leaving it in the car and then slowly walking away from it. The signal completely disappears after about 10-15 feet. Not even close to what's been advertised.Comfort - I can't wear it for extended periods of time without having it giving me a headache. Half an hour at most. I've tried wearing it with and without a hook, on left and right ears, but nothing helped. Pretty disappointing, especially considering the price, which is the next one on the list.Price - I was expecting a lot more from a $100 headset. What exactly are we paying for here? Sound quality? It's not that good. Comfort? Once again, it's not all that comfortable. There is also a possibility of loosing it if you wear it without an ear hook. Wait a minute.... I know! We're paying for that ""famous"" Jacob Jensen's design. Give me a break!Summary - I strongly advise you to think twice before investing into this headset. It's certainly not cheap, and not the best performing piece of equipment out there. I'm not sure about you, but I'm gonna check out Plantronics Discovery series next. Hopefully it'll turn out better than this one from Jabra.",3783,0 +3784,"DO NOT BUY SCAM + +I regret buying this phone from these sellers. When I ordered the phone I was under the impression that it would be a brand new phone that would come in the original package with its charger and manual.

When I requested a refund the seller denied it because they said they under the description that only the phone was being sold (THEY LIED), no where under description did they list that.

I poured water straight into the sound output then played music straight after, and the sound quality was perfect. Another test I tried was to put the phone in a cup of water and let it sit for 30 seconds. After I took it out I opened the back and saw just a little bit of water in there, but I was still able to turn the phone on and off smoothly.

There was a small tussle over ""air time PIN"" for which I had to call tracfone tech support, but buying time from the tracfone web site solved that.Several people have complained about the nearly instant phone lock out time. It can be changed, but the way of doing it is not in the manual, as one person wrote. However - a web search showed me the way. On the phone's main screen, tap the ""dice key"" at lower right, then on the next screen up, tap the ""Settings"" key at lower right. From there, tap ""Phone"", and then ""Auto-lock"". In Auto Lock, choose the setting you can live with. I set mine to ""Never"" for the time being, but there's a danger of the phone ""pocket dialing"" (dialing a phone number because of pressure on it while it's in your pocket or its case) so you may want to choose 10, 20, 30, or 60 seconds.This leads to the second thing I want to say here - almost any question you might have about the phone can be answered by a Google search - so use that liberally, if you need to. There are also quite a few very good tutorials on the phone, at [...]The final thing I want to say is that this phone seems to share the same network of cell towers with the very expensive Verizon ""smart phone"" I'm escaping from. So for about $8-10 per month, I'll get most of the features of the $80 monthly Verizon deal. For a home user who doesn't download movies or play games on the phone, that's an excellent deal.ADDED AFTER TWO WEEKS of owning and using the phone - still 5 stars, maybe more. The phone is much more versatile and useable than I expected. Most of the things which have bothered other reviewers are just matters of getting used to the interface. Texting, voice messaging, and of course phone calls are all simple and quick. Browsing is fast enough for casual use and the cost, in terms of ""minutes"", is very reasonable. I can view and use my Google calendar, so the Calendar is sybched across all my computers and other devices. I haven't yet figured out how to view my Google contacts, but I think that's possible. Adding Contacts to the phone itself is straightforward and simple.",3803,0 +3804,"Great phone. + +I always liked Nokia and love this phone. Menu is user friendly, phone is small and light but sturdy, battery holds up 4-5 days (I turn off phone for the nights though).The music quality from Music player is very good and clear. I had to upgrade memory card as 512 mb is very small (about 50 songs max). Max. memory card for this model is 4gb (I have 8GB and phone uses 3.4 GB).I love the option that I can set the alarm, turn phone off for the night and it will still wake me up asking if I want to switch to ON mode. Also when transfering or playing music I could still search the phone and do other stuff.Camera is good, but it takes a second or two late pictures so it's better to hold longer.The only minus I found in this phone is that volume even if maximum is just average (even on loudspeaker). If someone have a hearing problems that will be a huge minus.Other than that I'm very happy with this phone and recommend for a compact and sleek look (I don't need an internet and 3G, but there is an option to check an email and maps application).",3804,0 +3805,"I like it , but not love it.. + +Overall I'm pretty satisfied with this case. My credit card and money never falls out and it's convenient that I don't have to carry my wallet with me anymore. However, my samsung note has fallen out of the case several times. Luckily, the phone was not broken. To be honest, I don't think the phone is very secure in the case, especially, if you have a big phone like me.This case is so popular that there are 3 people in my workplace with the exact same case.",3805,0 +3806,"Great Buy + +Very Cute, sturdy to protect my phone, great fit, grat package and presentation, awesome vendor and very on time, I am super please.thank you.",3806,0 +3807,"Usually Sounds As Good As a Wired Headset + +I've had quite a few bluetooth headsets over the past couple of years, and this is one of my favorites. I currently go back and forth between this one and my current favorite, the Jabra 250v, another top headset. The Motorola HS850 has some of the best features:1) The on/off switch is the best, by far. I know that may sound funny, but if you've never had a wireless headset you don't realize how frequently you turn it off and on. With a wired headset, you just plug it in to use, unplug it to switch over to the phone. Pretty easy. But with *wireless*, the phone doesn't know if it's on your ear or on your desk. So, if you leave your headset turned on and set it on the desk, it's still going to answer the call. In other words, when your phone rings and you click answer and put it to your ear, if the headset was left on and anywhere nearby, the headset will handle the call, and your phone will sound dead. It takes a while to get used to that.But my point is, no other headset is as easy to turn off and on than the Motorola HS850. You simply flip the microphone closed for off, and flip it out again for on. Very cool. Other headsets make you press on/off buttons for many seconds, and listen for a little tone to let you know it's finally off or on.2) The sound clarity and noise canceling circuitry is very, very good. When you're in a car, the person on the other end of the line can usually hear the drone of your car, or the wind whipping through the window. But this headset has very good noise canceling circuitry, and most of those noises are cut out before your listener can hear them. A lot of times people can't even tell I'm calling from the car.My only complaint is that there's no way to get the speaker closer to your ear, so sometimes it's hard to hear. What I mean is, because it sits on top of and a little away from the ear, any outside noise tends to detract from your ability to hear. That's one of my favorite things about the Jabra 250v, is that it has an earpiece that sits more in the ear, helping block out sounds around you.CONCLUSION: Great features. Great battery life. Good comfort and sound quality. If the speaker was louder or closer to the ear I'd love it.",3807,0 +3808,"Optimus T QUESTION NOT A REVIEW + +Has anyone actually tried this case on T-MOBILE's Optimus T?Otterbox website says cannot be used for T, but I'm hoping the differences are minor enough to make the case viable for the T model.Apologies to those expecting a review - but newbie here to comments.thanks in advance.",3808,1 +3809,"Love this phone! Camera & Video, plus Email! + +I did a thorough search in Nov. 2005 and examined many phones and service providers before selecting ""Nokia 6101"" and T-mobile. Other providers did not have the flexibility with the prepaid system to meet my needs. This phone has everything I was looking for and it is easy to operate and use. I love the camera and video which are easy to operate. I quickly grasped the ""how tos"" on making, receiving calls, and text messaging.You can store 16 MB of information, send photos via email to friends and create photo albums. The text messaging system is super! The Voice Mail was a bit complicated to set up due to my lack of experience and discomfort with all this high tech equipment. I used up minutes unnecessarily listening to the T-mobile prompt telling me about Voice Mail until I realized it was an ""information only"" call. It dawned on me that I had to read and reread the manual which was not enough so I finally went to the Nokia and T-mobile websites for more detailed precise directions. I finally got it right!The SIMS chip placement was straight forward, no difficulty with the battery either. Activating the phone and receiving my phone number was a cinch! However getting my 1000 minutes to upload *was* a bit of a hassle, I bought a card which could not be directly uploaded. The help number at T-mobile set me straight. I am not locked into a monthly plan but choose to prepay minutes. I found T-mobile offers the most convenient method and options for obtaining 1000 minutes which last a whole year and whatever you don't use rolls over when you buy the next 1000 minutes. {I do not talk all that much but need the phone for safety and short interval calls.] Other service providers had more complicated methods of buying and using minutes, with a lot of add-on costs. It is so easy! I love the phone! I am enjoying the extra features more than I imagined. It is not *just* a phone - it is a communication device that makes me feel connected to the world. This phone works best for me. [Planning next to buy the headset to use the FM Radio ...] Erika BOrsos (erikab93)",3809,0 +3810,"It was an awesome product, for a few months... + +PROS: I am very pleased with the outstanding quality of this charger, as well as the follow-up service of this company. It is lightweight, aesthetically cool, and solidly built. This charger was purchased as a Christmas gift for my lady and she absolutely loved it. She took it with her on our recent 10-day far East Asian tour and not once did she need to plug her android phone (or mine) into an outlet to charge. She really started to become dependent on this device, since it meant she could take her phone anywhere and not need to be concerned about losing phone battery life.CONS: The only downside she experienced was that it no longer started taking a charge one day. However, I contacted the manufacturer and they helped us to resolve the issue within a very short amount of time. Despite the small glitch, I believe companies that go the extra mile to keep customers earn 5 stars in my book.If you want portable charging that keeps your digital life connected while on the go for upwards of a week or so, using it for a few hours per day, this beauty will do the job nicely--and you get excellent customer service as well! I'm very satisfied with this purchase and plan to purchase one for myself soon.UPDATE 4/2012: Unfortunately, the second one (mfr replacement) my gf received had the same situation occur where it stops taking a charge after a few months. It worked great the first couple of months or so, then it would not take a charge unless you pressed the charging plug tightly into the device. This minor defect takes away from what appears to be a 5-star product.Bottom line: I must degrade my review to 3 stars because it worked great for a few months but stopped charging -- a workaround is to jimmy-rig the power plug by tightening it down with a rubber band to ensure it charges but is a mediocre 'ghetto' fix. Unfortunately, it's not taking a charge within a few months of use leaves leaves us with a useless block of plastic and metal. At the moderate price this goes for, I'd expect it to provide at least a few years, not months, worth of use. Now I must purchase a new portable charger and may have to look at another brand with greater reliability. 3 Stars for what truly could have been a 5-Star product.",3810,1 +3811,"Don't let these reviews fool you. + +Don't let the reviews fool you, this is a great little phone, if your gonna use it for music calling and messaging the battery is ok even with the occasional game. This phone is FAST and work amazing for the price!dual core and 512mb of ram is plenty and you cant beat if for this price point. Check out the unboxing on my channel http://youtu.be/Ri6nDWN04rk I will have a review up soon!",3811,0 +3812,"Good for the price + +If you're a new HTC One owner like me, you probably didn't want to pay $60 for an Otterbox from Sprint or AT&T;, which is why you're here now. If you're a former EVO owner, you're looking for something with a kickstand, another reason many of you are reading these reviews.Let's start with the good - It's an extremely cheap case packaged with a very tiny stylus (might be useful if you're wearing gloves, but that's about it. It's almost too small to hold with even just two fingers). They also throw in a nice little keychain that is mostly just for advertising purposes. It's a very thin case and hardly adds any heft to the phone at all. You can see the HTC logo perfectly through the kickstand and it offers a better grip with the rubber and plastic combo than the phone itself has. All of the ports are cut out well except for one, which I'll get to in a second - however, this case will actually improve the feel of the volume rocker and power button. There is no cover over the speakers, meaning you'll still get full volume, and the camera, flash, and microphones are also uncovered. The case itself looks very good - mostly because it doesn't cover the phone very much, considering how beautiful it is on its own. The plastic you see on the back is lightly frosted but still see-through, and the rubber has a good shine to it that makes the device instantly recognizable.Now the not so good. The biggest design problem here is that they put plastic over the IR blaster (integrated into the power button), meaning you cannot use this as a TV remote with this case on unless you cut it out. Of course, those of you with the phone in-hand know that the power button is already nearly flush with the body of the phone, meaning it'll be a bit of an annoyance if you do so to power the phone on & off, put it to sleep, etc.The kickstand also protrudes from the case in the back, obviously in an attempt to keep the case as thin as possible. However, it makes the phone relatively uncomfortable to hold having a small rectangle of plastic bulging out in the middle of the back side of the device - the hinges come out even further than the kickstand itself. There is no plastic underneath the kickstand itself, meaning your device will be exposed in that area when it is opened. It also does not seem very sturdy - I had a Seidio case for my Evo 3D that had a very sturdy kickstand considering it was plastic. This one does not - you have to be gentle setting the device down or it could snap all of the way back, causing your device to fall flat on its back. It's also worth noting that the kickstand will only allow you to prop it up in landscape mode at a single fixed angle. This case won't protect your screen from a drop, but it will prevent dings to the aluminum body from normal use (which can get messed up quite easily in a pocket when carrying without a case).One last note - No screen protectors are included, so if you don't already have one make sure to put in a separate order.In all, if you're someone looking for a cheaper case to last you until one of the better brands comes out with a great kickstand variant, this thing will serve you well until then. Just don't expect it to be a permanent solution - You just bought a very high-end device, don't skimp on protecting it for too long.",3812,0 +3813,"Awesome Phone + +I almost didn't get this phone because everyone seemed to dislike it when it came out but I'm glad I decided not to listen to them, this phone is awesome all around. I love the apps and there will just be more to come. It's really easy to use and it's lightening fast on bringing up web pages or anything for that matter. It is completely comparable to the iphone 3gs and neither is really better than the other, it is just personal preference. All of my friends are really jealous of this phone for one reason or another. AT&T will let you try it for thirty days and if you don't like it you can take it back and get another phone and all you have to pay is a thirty five dollar restocking fee.

I swear, every text I wrote it looked as though I had already put away a 12 pack of beer, or that damnyouautocorrect was collecting their monthly top 10.Not only that, I returned the Lifeproof and had to pay a 15% restocking fee.

It has an easy access to all the buttons.Nice masculine design.Raised front AND back design make the phone easier to grab from the edges and also keeps the screen from scratches.Nice clear back shows 5c's color shine through..(I can't believe some case makers are making the case opaque on this phone.)The clear plastic is extremely strong. The $100 industrial grade leather punch won't even make a hole..I'll explain that in my con.There are zero chemical or toxic smell. The case arrived in two days..extremely fast for standard shipping. It shipped from CA which I'm at also...but still.It's priced fair. Considering I bought the phone for $50 w/ 2yr Contract, I'm not going to pay $30 Apple is asking for their flimsy Ikea wannabe case. What is Apple thinking?Constructive criticism..It's back is slippery as an wet fish. The faux sandblasted clear plastic part of the case is almost ""Teflon non stick pan"" slippery..I dropped the phone as soon as I put the case on. And that was the first time I dropped this phone after a week of ownership...So if you don't hold by the edges of the phone, you also ""might"" drop the phone.At around $11, there no point returning this...I could either toss it or modify it. So I tried to put some strategic holes in it but failed due to the durability of plastic Supcase used. I ended up placing Scotch rubber pads on the back so it has real grip.Brillo might look into other material for clear parts or add more pronounce texture for better grip...But to be honest, there aren't any gadget case I haven't modified. There're NO perfect case..at least not for me. Thus in all fairness, I'm giving it three stars.",3817,0 +3818,"Part 1 of 2: Applying shield to Inspire + +I will write part 2 later, after the shield has been in service for a while. This covers installation.I read many reviews and was about to give these a pass: it's hard to install, the corner doesn't stick, it has blemishes after I installed, and it's hard to drag your finger across. Many of course were just the opposite: goes on like a dream, beautifully clear after it dries fully, small scratches recover and are invisible after a few days.At one point I thought the the thing was actually glued to the phone, so the guarantee to replace the shield screen didn't impress me because I wondered what about the touch screen itself. I went by Radio Shack for a final consult with a friend who works there. He had used them several times and assured me that if I put it on correctly, I would have no problems. And no, it isn't glued on. It comes off easily when you want it to.I don't know about long-term wear and tear, but I am here to say that it has astonished me in the application of the thing. First, you do have to follow the directions, and fully. They caution to wash your hands and to use the liquid to wet your fingers and then the shield. Do it. It prevents finger prints and other smudges building up during handling. And you may have to moisten more than once. I made one attempt and it wound up too cockeyed to accept. It was impossible to slide it, so I wet everything (me and it), removed it, and tried again, with very acceptable placement.Then comes the squeegee portion of the adventure. There's a very nice card with the thing, and that was no better or worse than any similar device. I kept pushing and pushing little bubbles out. Make sure to blot regularly. When the bubbles come to the side, they generally carry a bit of liquid with them. You do NOT want that going down behind the screen. I suspect that sort of leakage is the reason they counsel leaving the phone alone with battery removed for 24 hours after installation. To make sure that the liquid you let drop into it dries up. A better approach is to prevent dripping into the phone. Just blot regularly as you push bubbles to the side and I believe you will prevent it completely.Go slowly. Allow time. I would say it took me less than twenty minutes, including the first failed attempt.I was unconvinced as I removed bubble after bubble, because I saw many hazy patches spread around the thing, and could not imagine what to do about them. I continued pushing bubbles until I just could not get any more to move.Here's where the magic comes in.Some of the reviews mention that the thing improves as it dries and sets, and that is exactly what happens. Within two hours there was noticeable clearing of the hazy patches, and a few of what I thought were small bubbles disappeared.By morning, the hazy patches were completely gone, and there was no sign of a bubble or wrinkle anywhere. Period. If didn't know that the original glass was perfectly flat, I'm not sure I would know the thing was on there. As it is, the surface has some slight texture, so looked at from far enough to the side you can see the rolling surface. Like looking at the ocean from 10,000 feet.You really could have pushed me over with a feather when I looked at the thing this morning and found absolutely, positively no blemish whatsoever.It feels very smooth and easy to me. I read a review that mentioned difficulty pulling across it. I haven't experience that yet, but I am still a couple of hours from my 24 hours wait, so I have touched it very little. I'll say more about that in part 2, after a few weeks' use.If the use portion matches the installation portion as well as my experience matches the more glowing reviews of that part, then the feel and scratch resistance will likely turn out to be just as awesome as those reviews say.The little bit that I have run the phone (yes, I put the battery back in this morning when I figured out that leaving battery out was for protection against pretty gross carelessness) has been very satisfactory. No problem at all with the feel, which is smooth but not frictionless. I like that little bit of tactile feedback, so I don't mind that it's not the same as the glass. And no effect that I can detect on sensitivity. No lag in response, no need to push a little harder to make the touch.Remember: take battery out (good idea during installation definitely), wash and wet hands, keep fingers and shield moist, but not saturated, blot regularly during installation to prevent liquid seeping into phone, don't be afraid to remove and reinstall if position is not satisfactory, push out all the bubbles you can, then LEAVE IT ALONE. If you can make the 24 hours without it, it's probably a good idea. For no reason based on actual knowledge, but as a hunch, I would say that the plastic ""cures"" a bit during that first 24 hours. If so, then the curing might benefit from remaining free from finger grease and other contamination. Going against that, to be honest, the phone really seemed ready to use (shield smooth and secure) when I looked at it this morning, after applying last night at 8 PM and looking at it this morning about 9 AM.In short: You must be careful, but installation is not difficult. The appearance is absolutely amazing. Clear as it could possibly be. And certainly my small data sample on feel and performance suggest a good experience to come.I say: Use it!!",3818,0 +3819,"Poor Reception + +This item dissapointed me it would barely pick up a signal on my charging pad.

Once I got home I started playing with this device. The phone felt like it was meant for a five year old. I slid it open and tried to use the miniature keyboard. Terrible design for such a high tech device. The touch screen is pretty kool but not for me. The camera and HDfeatures where fantastic. Yet the phone did not feel durable enough for me. I immediately went and exchanged the phone for the Blackberry Tour 9630. Let me tell you the blackberry is more user friendly. It also has the HD capabilities and live TV,NFL Network. It also has the 3.2 megapixel camera. I am a police officer and most of my friends have the Blackberry curve. We are very hard on our cell phones. I highly recommend an ""OtterBox"" cell phone case to protect your device. The palm pre is for people that have a desk job or a student. Definately not for demanding occupations such as Police Swat,Firefighters or specialized units in our armed forces.",3820,1 +3821,"Solid messaging phone with great screen and good keyboard + +I have XL-sized hands so I have always struggled with phone keypads and keyboards. I stopped using touchscreen phones because it was such a frustration to type on a virtual keyboard. For that reason, I've tried many phones with physical QWERTY keyboards over the years and the Sparq II is my second-favorite ever (my fave was a now-discontinued Nokia model, also for T-Mobile).The phone feels very solid - the slide mechanism does not wiggle and it seems to stay shut when I want it to with no problem. The numeric keypad is a bit cramped if you're used to a flip phone or a candybar phone with a smaller screen (and hence more room for the keypad) but even with my huge fingers I can work it well enough. The slide out QWERTY keyboard is very nice. It's sensitive enough that I don't feel as if I have to pound the keys but not as sensitive as a virtual keyboard - I seldom mistype letters as long as I hold the phone still and at a certain angle. I've had it three days and I've already gotten used to the keyboard.The interface is good. This is NOT a smartphone so don't expect the ability to add apps or hyper-customize the interface but the onboard functions are fine. The call quality and volume are very good, reception has been as good or better as other phones I've used in my same location, and the features and functions I've used (calls, texts, alarm, contacts) all work as they should. I haven't used the Web browser extensively but it seems fine for a non-smartphone. The screen has excellent resolution but it is small compared to a touchscreen-only phone (that doesn't matter to me).If you want a physical QWERTY keyboard and don't need to load your own apps, this phone is a great option.

IDK if the good reviews got lucky and actually got what they ordered, or if they're people who work for the company. I paid $189.00 for a refurbished phone, the volume buttons were completely worn, I got a used battery, the charging port was loose, and the plastic around it had been buffered. When I emailed the company the response was quick, and I was told if I sent the phone back they'd refund my money and compensate me an extra $10 for the shipping. When I clicked the button that said 16 new there was one to select out of them, the rest were ATT only. While I received an unlocked phone, it was not new.

So much to my disappointment when the package arrived it was just a clip. OK fine I should have read the entire description but when the picture shows a cover on a phone I made an bad assumption. In the end not too big of a deal since I already have a note 3 Samsung flip cover for my phone so I installed the clips onto my existing cover that it is meant for.Second complaint the clips are not as straight forward to install as it seems, used up the installed 2 sided tape and a second one before getting to work correctly. The part on the cover was pretty straight forward.Third complaint after less than 12 hours the third tape stopped sticking to the phone and the magnet remained attached to the cover, this was even after on the third install I used alcohol to clean the phone to make sure it was a dirt, dust, oil free surface to adhere to.Fourth complaint now on the 4th piece of tape, the magnet was just not that strong and after another 12 hours decided this was just a gimmick and I will remove.Fifth complaint I can honestly say that the warning on the sales description page that says "The Magnetic Clip may cause damage to the cover if removed frequently" is completely untrue it should read "The Magnetic Clip WILL cause damage to the cover if removed" in the only removal of the clip from the cover I have two very noticeable scrapes in my cover, cant go so far as say ruined, but definitely damaged, and caused more damage in the single rmoval of the clip than the previous three months of use of the cover.Sixth complaint this ruining of my cover happed the day I got the e-mail from Amazon saying Prime is having an incredible 25% price increase. Well if crappy products like this continue to be offered on Prime no wonder the cost is going up, how much did it cost to ship a $10 item as 2 day shipping. Maybe Amazon should have a tiered Prime plan, $100 for 2-day on any Prime eligible item or $79 on Prime items but only if the total order exceeds $35 and every item is Prime eligible to get over the $35 threshold.so as the review description says BUYER BEWARE",3827,1 +3828,"Sim card was expired, date was fudged. + +There was a sticker over the exp. date.

Great buy...I recommend",3841,0 +3842,"Good Product, but has a few cons. + +I just purchased my LifeProof case yesterday, so I am unable to speak to its longevity. The case that my LifeProof is replacing is the OtterBox Defender. This review is written as a compare/contrast in respect to the OtterBox Defender.Pros of the LifeProof:#1: Very Low Profile. For the amount of physical protection that this case provides, it is exceptionally slim. The case is marginally larger than the phone itself. In terms of a protection provided/size of case ratio, this is probably the best case on the market.#2: Non-Stick/Snag Material. Unlike the Defender, which has a very rubberized and grippy feel, the LifeProof has a more smooth plastic feel to it. The case is very easy to grip and hold, but it doesn't cling to the inside of pockets, which was a problem that I experienced all the time with the Defender. Overall, it makes the phone much easier to handle.#3: It's water proof. I tested the case by placing it under a sink faucet and having water flow over it at all angles. I dropped the phone into the sink and let it lay at the bottom under maybe 6 inches of water for about 15 seconds or so. The phone was playing music while I did this test. After removing the phone from the water, it operated completely normally and the case seemed to provide protection as advertised.Cons:#1: What I immediately noticed was the volume of the phone is reduced substantially. I don't have a decibel meter to measure exactly to what degree the sound is reduced, but I would estimate a sound reduction of about 30%; although music can still easily be heard and the phone's ringer is more than competent.#2: The case is not quite as rugged and protective as the Defender. It does seem to be rugged enough to protect the phone from drops onto a hard surface, however.",3842,0 +3843,"Doesn't work for bionic + +I bought this to have a second charger for my Driod Bionic. When I plugged it in, my phone would not recognize that there was a plug. I took a closer look at it, and the head doesn't even match the head of the charger that came with my phone.

There are three primary design flaws that make me feel I wasted my money. First, the ridge around the edge of the case is so high that it's very difficult to thumb type on the keys near the outer edges of the virtual keypad. This may not be a problem with the iPhone 4 form factor, but the narrow iPhone 5/5s shape makes this a real problem. Second, that same ridge is so close to the main front button that it gets in the way of the fingerprint activation. Your finger or thumb has to angle downward to get over the ridge, which means when you try to use the print recognition, it's getting a different angle on the fingerprint than when you don't have the case on. Finally, the design allows moisture and lint to get under the protective "glass" on the faceplate. So there's always crud wedged between the iPhone's glass and the OtterBox's glass. This looks ugly and distracting.",3844,0 +3845,"Watch the Holes! + +This protector is ok. Overall it serves the purpose. The unit has harder plastic than I hoped for.

Signal strength is also good, though I did not fully experiment with the battery life.The reasons for me to deduct one star from the review are because:1) The misleading product picture.

Phone help was useless. Still trying to get internet help. + +Ok, I've got a Galaxy S2, and figured I'd set it up for my sister. Since the phone works on the ATT network, I figured I'd buy the Net10 SIM card and get it all ready to ship to her.I activated the phone, and it connected to the ATT network with about 3 bars of service. My sister sent me a text and I replied. I surfed the web using Firefox. All was well.The following day after activation, I see no bars and a white X over where the bars should be. No browsing, no phone dialing or receive functions. Checking the available networks, I see that ATT and TMobile networks are visible. No problem, the phone isn't provisioning on the ATT network. I called the toll free number, and waited... and waited... And got through to first layer support. After I explain the situation, he forwards me on to the level 2 support.The level 2 support lady is nice enough, but she keeps trying to tell me that I need at least 3 bars to surf the web. Each time I tell her that the phone isn't connecting to the available network, her response is that I need at least 3 bars to surf the internet. Not. Helpful. She tells me that maybe I need to change my location, and to go outside. I have a Galaxy S3 and so I put the phones side by side (one in each hand). The S2 with a Net10 SIM shows not connected to network, while the S3 shows 4 bars when set to 3g mode. Finally, she tells me to contact the manufacturer of my phone (Samsung) for troubleshooting assistance. Again, Not. Helpful.I tried doing a factory reset, no change. I went to the Net10 forum. In the Samsung section of the forum are huge numbers of people with issues, each creating a thread. In each case, a representative will post that they need to take the issue off line to resolve it. And that's the end of the thread... no posting of what was done to fix the person's problem. There are 62 pages of threads in the Samsung section alone.I decided to post a thread. I created a user account on their forum, and posted. But nothing shows, because it's a moderated forum. The next day, my posting shows up on the site along with a representative's reply that I need to post *5 distinct posts* before I can chat with a customer service representative about my issue. Ok, I can do this. I post a dummy message. I try to post another message, and get an error that I can't post messages that frequently. You gotta be joking!My sister called this evening to ask how the phone activation was going... *that* was a fun conversation.Hopefully tomorrow I can chat with a customer service rep and get help.Overall, my experience with Net10 and the SIM card activation kit has been 1 star. Because that's as low as the rating system goes. I guess for the price, you could buy a bunch to use as coasters for your drinks...Update:I never did manage to communicate with an online support representative. Based on how difficult it is to get access to them, I would write off the forum as a lost cause. I finally cleared the APN entries in the phone, and re-entered the default one (again). For some unknown reason, it's working now. Funny note: I sent the phone to my sister in a rural area, and she get's slow internet connectivity. I asked her if she had any letters next to the signal bars (S, H, E, 3, etc) to check for what kind of connectivity she was getting. She had no letters. When I said that's probably why she had slow internet, and that she wasn't getting a 3G connection, she said ""Oh, we don't have 3G here!"" Slow connectivity issue solved.

It is annoying that I have to hold the button for 2 seconds to turn it on. My previous backup battery had no button at all and would turn itself on automatically when I connected it to my phone and start charging.Output current is limited to 1 Amp. This is my biggest complaint. While this is enough for phones, it's only half of what the iPad would accept. recharging the iPad takes twice as long as the original charger and makes it less useful. A charge time of 8 hours isn't practical.Recharging of the device itself (with the supplied charger) takes about 5 hours which is pretty long.Overall I like it and it does the job.

The company recommends the battery is taken out because water is being used, which makes sense. BUT only after applying the protector did I realize the the battery had to stay out for 24 hours!!! So apply the protector when you know you won't need your phone for a while. Its been a while since I put it on my phone, so I don't remember if it was initially hazy like people have said, but it is perfectly clear now! I think it even made the use of the touch screen a little bit easier. I AM a perfectionist, though, and the two air bubbles (that I couldn't get out (but are probably unnoticeable to anyone else but me) aren't that bad.

BUT: I am talking about MY anker astro 3 that I received... not in general. Manufacturer certainly deserves a chance when things go wrong to address, investigate, respond.[Update: anker has been in contact with me almost as soon as this review went live; they are sending me a replacement cable as that seems to be the issue. They have been polite and courteous throughout, and clearly are committed to finding out what went wrong. It's rare to encounter a vendor like that. So I think it is safe to say that, in the off chance that something goes wrong like it did for me, they will take care of you and you can rest easy.]I used to use a generic external battery - worked fine. Nothing fancy, 2 usb ports (one for 1.5v, one for 0.5v). Button to turn on and show charge, auto off. Led display to show percent charge stored. Held charge for like a week and a half of non use. Powered my cell phone or PSP just fine. But since getting a nexus 7 (2013), it wasn't quite enough. It was heavy and ran fairly hot charging; I often charged and used my tablet at the same time. It only netted me about 65% of a full nexus 7 (2013) charge. So I was really excited to get an anker 3 astro (especially with all the hardcore fanbase revs).So basically, an external battery needs to two things. In order of Importance, they are:1. Charge your device.2. Store energy from a source.Mine doesn't do #1. I haven't bothered with #2, because the battery arrived with ~85% charge; and frankly, if it can't charge my device, I don't care if it can store a charge... in fact, I'd rather not waste electricity on it.I read the instructions (btw, that's some really tiny print... I have young eyes, but thinking for people like my parents... they'd probably appreciate a bigger font), did the troubleshooting...I had my anker with the supplied cable in the ""smart"" USB connection. I connected the smaller end to my Nex7. It showed the charging icon for a second. And then it stopped. Battery meters and the native os battery icon both confirmed it was not being charged.I pulled the small end out, put it back in. It started charging again. I watched to make sure. ~10 min later, it wasn't charging anymore; my battery level had only gone up from ~22% to ~25%.Over the course of an hour, this happened 4 times. I am unable to pinpoint the cause: I have tried keeping the tablet in either portrait or landscape (as that had seemed to have an effect at first) while charging, I have tried using many apps while charging, I have tried using only one app while charging, I have tried using no apps while charging, I have tried charging with both tablet and battery on a table and completely stationary, I have tried leaving the tablet in sleep mode while charging, I have tried vigorously shaking, I have tried not shaking, I have tried it with battery in and not in the pouch.About the only thing I haven't tried is sacrificing a goat - amazon says my sacrificial goat will arrive in two weeks because I don't have Prime (jk). But seriously, short of ""while doing an interpretive dance"" and ""satanic ritual"", the list of things I have yet to try is short. The cable is fine(*); I have tested it's connection between PC and tablet. The socket is fine, it does convey energy (and charge on the anker IS being used up even though device is NOT being charged; verified because I had to go back to my old external and use it's entire charge to bring me from the ~35% the anker managed (and apparently used half it's charge to take me from 22% to 35%), to ~97%).For some unknown reason, the thing just shuts off on it's own, well before the device is fully charged. The white LED indicators will blink too, I think. The instructions don't tell me if this means anything.[edit: charges my HTC desire just fine, with slow blinking and not fast blinking... so wtf?][Update: was able to charge tablet using one of the ""universal"" usb sockets instead of the ""smart"" socket. I guess the nex7 2013 isn't compatible with the smart socket? Bewildering since the instruction manual touts the smart socket as being specifically for android devices. Have raised my review one star.][Update: I was able to use the usb cable bundled with the nexus 7 (2013) and the smart port to charge my nexus 7 (2013). So, despite having previously been able to sustain a PC-tablet connection, as well as successfully charge my android phone, it seems the bundled usb cable (anker) was defective. Somehow.

There was always a gap between the speaker cup and my ear which was large enough that I feel it would be bothersome and contribute to poor sound quality of the headset.Despite being quite compact the headset seems overly lightweight to the point of feeling extremely cheap in the hands; if you look at them hard enough they might just fall apart on you.All in all although I haven't quite made up my mind which Bluetooth headset I will end up getting, I'm certainly sending these back, I can find a much better product here at Amazon in the same price range.",3877,1 +3878,"Broke my phone...literally.... + +So, I had a week-old S4 and I was looking forward to getting this case on it.

In the last 3 years, I've gone through more brands and models than I care to think about. Now I've tried the Plantronics Discovery 925, and tell you with no hesitation that it is in the top two of those I have used.The Plantronics Discovery 925 is more an earpiece than a headset, with an earbud that fits inside the ear with surprising comfort, rather than an earloop that hangs over the ear. This means that it is much more comfortable to wear with eyeglasses and/or sunglasses. Indeed it is so comfortable that I sometimes forget I am wearing it.Pairing the device is a snap, and while my old Jabra headset frequently lost its pairing (weekly at least), the Plantronics Discovery 925 has not yet.The sound quality is tremendous. Audio is crystal clear from both my side and on the caller's side, if my friends and family are to be believed. LOLPlantronics touts this headset as having great noise reduction technology, and I will say that it is better in the noise reduction arena than all but one of the headsets I've tried in the past. The only headset I have personally tried that surpasses the Plantronics Discovery 925 in noise reduction is the Jawbone headset.What I really love about the Discovery 925 is the charging options. This headset comes with both an AC charger cable and a USB charger cable. Not only that, it comes with a compact charging case. You can charge the headset either in the case or directly, using the same cables for each. The beauty of the case is that it charges alongside the headset when you have it plugged in to electrical power. Then when your headset's battery dies, you simply put the headset in the case to recharge on the go - WITHOUT connecting either the case or the headset to electrical current. I've purposely let the headset's charge completely drain and charged it with the case, and found it worked admirably. And to top it all off, the Plantronics Discovery 925 charges fully in just a couple of hours, whether via electrical current or the portable charge case.Now here is where I prove what a woman I can be. The last quality I want to point out is purely cosmetic - its appearance. This is by far the most attractive headset I've ever seen. It's design almost looks like a cufflink or tie clip. It is sleek, innocuous, and comes in three different colors: black, gold, and pink. Personally, I like the more unobtrusive black model myself, but for those who want a little bit livelier hue, the other options work too. Yeah, I know, the appearance is a pretty frivolous virtue, but as often as we wear these things nowadays, it is nice to find a Bluetooth headset that doesn't have to trade form for function.For the best in noise reduction, Jawbone's Bluetooth headset is the overall winner, but Plantronics Discovery 925 runs a very close second in this category. In all other categories, I would choose Plantronics as the number one headset.Phone used with:HP iPaq 6945 Unlocked Cell Phone with Wi-fi, GPS, MP3/Video Player, SD--U.S. Version with Warranty (Silver)Most recent Headsets I've used:Plantronics Discovery 925 Bluetooth Headset - BlackAliph Jawbone Noise Shield Bluetooth Headset- BlackJabra BT250v Bluetooth Headset with Vibrating Alert [Retail Packaged]Logitech Mobile Freedom Bluetooth HeadsetMotorola H300 Bluetooth Headset",3896,0 +3897,"It has shipped WAY too early + +The Storm has plenty of potential, but they obviously wanted to get this out the door as soon as they possibly could.

The screen guard itself is protected by 2 thinner plastic sheets, called masks, which are on each side of the guard. You peel off one of the masks and apply the screen guard to your phone using the plastic square. Once you have the screen guard on, you peel off the other mask. This second mask prevents fingerprints/scratches getting on the screen guard as you try to apply it to your phone. The screen guard does not affect the touch screen at all. It's easy to put it, it works, and it's inexpensive. What's not to like?Some reviewers mentioned sticky residue. They are probably referring to the residue left by the instruction stickers that are on the 2 masks. The stickers say ""Please peel this mask before application"" and ""Please peel this mask after application,"" These instructions were referring to the masks, not the stickers themselves. I'm assuming these reviewers probably didn't know these masks are supposed to come off and just tried to peel the stickers off and then proceeded to put the screen guard on with the 2 masks still on it.

Taking excellently colored shots with a good XENON(!!) flash, and plenty of in phone editing options, like filters. It is much better than the LG viewty and the Samsung ultra touch camera and comparable to the cheapest point and shoots. That said compared with a ~$200 canon point and shoot, the Renoir gets blown out of the water. But if all you use your camera for are posed shots in outdoor lighting, this could be an acceptable replacement for a point and shoot. This is probably the best camera availabe in any phone, at least in the top 3.Go to flickr, search LG Renoir for some good sample shots.It also takes decent video, I didn't use it often though.In conclusion, I do recommend this phone for anyone looking a fun, good looking, touch screen feature phone with a great camera.

Point the triangle towards your antenna for best results.Went from 0 bars in my basement to 1 consistantly. From one bar outside my house to 2. Two def. worked better than one as I tested before adding a second. This is not a freak thing, I am getting consistant results. I did read in one report however that some phones get better results than others (just like some phones get better reception than others to begin with)I can't tell you HOW it works, but it DOES. You will not go from 1 bar to 5, but it will see some improvement. I didn't belive it untill I tried it. For 4 bucks how can you go wrong anyway? Search for local news stories on the product in Houston, etc. for other ACTUAL reviews - Not ones slapped together by people that have no actual experience with the product.",3912,0 +3913,"One of the best phones out there + +I was amazed when I learned that I could buy this jewel at such a low price! So I immediately ordered it, and I was very satisfied at how fast it got here. The phone itself is amazing: the wifi is a huge plus, and the Symbian operating system is something that I wouldn't be able to live without.A few pros:- WIFI!!- quad-band, so you can basically use it anywhere in the world (needs SIM card)- amazing set of features for a low price- great battery life - up to 3 days if I talk for approximately an hour, use the wifi a little bit and play the game boy advance emulator for a couple of hours.- very cool design- nicely built, the sliding mechanism seems solid- the music quality - simply extraordinary!! (this should have been the first one in the list, the music part of this phone is incredible. The speakers are very loud for a handheld device)- the hands-free is really good- 8GB of memory. Why would you ever need more?!- the screen is perfect, very big and good enough even for watching videos on it. Web pages are easily read, even if there is a lot of text.- the gaming aspect - it's very convenient to have those gaming buttons on top of the screen. They are comfortable and do not seem prone to damage.- The operating system - you can install anything you want on this phone! To list a few, you can have Google maps, Youtube, Skype, and a whole bunch of emulators (Game boy, Game boy advance, NES, SNES... whatever you can think of :)- the SIP option - you can call for free over a WLAN network. I am listing this one here because it is a big plus, although you will also find it in ""cons"" because I could not set it up.- the speed at which it does everything. You don't have to wait for anything, you simply click on it and it opens. I previously had a Symbian 7 phone, and it was painfully slow compared to this one.- the ability to synchronize all your contacts and text messages, etc, from your old phone to this one. There is a pre-installed app on the phone that does it all for you, in a flash.- the second camera for video calls, although I don't know when I'll actually get to use that one.- the N-gage games! How could I forget this one :) They are pretty good, and there's a whole bunch of new games coming up, so if you are a gamer you will enjoy that.Cons:- I had trouble synchronizing my Windows Media Player playlists with the phone. Either I could put my songs in a folder on the memory card, but without transferring the playlist file (so I only had a huge number of songs, but not arranged in any order), or I would have the playlist file, but all the songs would go directly into the root of the memory card, which would probably slow down the phone eventually.- the buttons are not very convenient for typing text (compared to my old 6600); also, I keep pressing the ""play"" button accidentally, which is annoying because it starts to play music loud all of a sudden and startles everyone around.- the camera is quite bad. This is not a problem for me, since I don't use it anyway, but if you want a nice camera then do not buy this phone. It really takes crappy pictures, with bad colours (kind of greenish), and quite flaky. I even feel like the front camera for video calls takes better pictures, even though the one on the back has a higher resolution. The flash is useless, too. The videos it makes are pretty good though, with a nice framerate and not choppy at all.- as I already mentioned, I could not set up the internet calling. It always says ""registration failed"", while everything works fine on my PC. However, you need to have a wifi network in range to be able to use SIP, so it's not useful for everyone - so probably it won't matter to you that much. It is nice to use it at home or in the office - you could save quite a lot of money by calling over the net.",3913,0 +3914,"great! + +the only problem is, is that it is super hard to take off once it is on. other than that it is great!",3914,0 +3915,"not support UTF-8 Language + +problem with names and msg. email tweets , not support for my language which is arabic only support english language",3915,1 +3916,"not what I ordered + +The first part of my dissatisfaction was my own fault, I should have read more clearly that it is a BUMPER case, so it does not have a back cover, just around the edges.

The first thing I want to say is that I ordered my phone two days before I ordered the iLLumiShield, and I received the iLLumiShield before I received my phone! VERY fast delivery! When I did receive my phone (the next day) one of the first things I did was to put one of the three protectors that are sent onto my phone. The process was very simple (the shield exactly matches the front of my phone) and the small plastic blade they send with the product to ""squeegie"" out the air bubbles works like a charm. If you don't quite make the correct alignment on the phone, the iLLumishield is easily removed and you can start over again. Of course, it's too soon to judge how long one lasts, but with the replacements they send, plus the lifetime replacements, I don't think I have anything to worry about. So far, so good. Mine works like a charm! Highly recommended!",3918,0 +3919,"So close + +This is my 4th bluetooth headset, and I'm getting frustrated trying to find one that both works good and fits good.

I have no complaints, but probably wouldn't have bought it if I just saw it in the store. The product is well made and serves it's purpose.",3920,0 +3921,"Not sure why such great reviews; lens barely usable + +I read through many of the reviews before deciding to purchase this 3-in-1 lens, which is why I was surprised to find that this lens is not very good.I upgraded from the iPhone 4 to the iPhone 5 and, like other reviewers, didn't want to fork over another $70 for a new Olloclip. I figured at $15 this might be a good solution. Depending on your needs, this might work for you. I, however, expect quality photos and this lens system does not deliver based on that sole criteria.It is important to note that I mainly use the macro lens, and this macro lens is definitely inferior to the Olloclip's macro lens. Even with a tripod I was unable to get good, clear shots. There was blurriness in the middle, and extreme blurriness and vignetting around the edges. When compared to the Olloclip which gives me no vignetting and blurriness when expected, I find this macro lens to be unusable.As a result of the terrible macro shots, I have found a solution to using my iP4 Olloclip with my iP5, and even with this rigged solution the images are of such superior quality I will not need to worry about a different lens system--as long as I keep pencil erasers handy.It is also important to note that this 3-in-1 lens falls off under all circumstances, except when the phone is held completely upright. This also renders the lens unusable--for many macros the phone is positioned in all sorts of positions and if the lens keeps falling off there's no point in having it.I recommend keeping the $15 you were going to spend on this lens, save up another $40-45 dollars and get the Olloclip.",3921,0 +3922,"Very disappointed + +Very disappointed. Dispite all the bad reviews, I'd thought I would give it a try because it was so cheap. Worked for maybe five minutes. Don't waste your money.",3922,0 +3923,"Good choice for iPhone 4 + +This case nicely fits the iPhone4, and holds it securely enough. It's better for walking or low impact sports like skating than for running, where the weight of the iPhone4 is noticeable. Can't blame that on the case.",3923,0 +3924,"It is easy to pop on and to remove + +It is not slippery, as so many of the others are. This was a priority for me...I returned two other cases for this reason. The cut, out at the bottom is liberal and allows for both protection of the phone and ease in recharging. It is easy to pop on and to remove.The buttons are cover in plastic and easy to use. I bought white which goes well with my white cell.

This adaptor doesn't work with my 5th gen Nano at all; it doesn't turn off the built in speaker nor does it connect with my headphones. I have seen reviews for the Scosche TuneStream unit, but that doesn't work for 5th gen iPods either.",3928,0 +3929,"Works Perfectly + +I've had the air for almost 3 weeks now and I am in love. If the phone is down to about 15% (my preferred percentage before turning on the pack) then it gets back up to 80% or above if you want to but according to Mophie you will want to stop charging the phone using the pack after 80% as the phone requires an extra push of battery which may not be worth a full cycle of the battery pack.Pros:- Can charge the IPhone 5 back to 100% if not in use while charging but will charge up to at least 75 while in heavy use and charging (seriously wow)- Looks a lot slimmer then first expected and provides serious protection and is made of a material that doesn't scratch or mark easily. Also... It looks fantastic.- Echoing another review, the in lay of the phone against the face of the screen provides good protection if laying on the face.- In my case I ordered the Product Red and the color is amazing.- The volume/lock button(s) look great and work as well as the phones, very intuitive and pro looking.- Smart charging system in that charging 40% here and 50% there only adds up to a 90% charge of the battery pack and won't be considered a full cycle until it has charged to 100% and drained 100%, this provides a peace of mind when charging as there is no need to think about a full cycle.- The biggest Pro is that I virtually never have to wonder if I have enough battery. Incredible.Cons:- Obviously, it adds some girth to the very beautiful and slim 5. It is noticeable and if living with a thicker case is a deal breaker than don't get this. But,as said before, it was much thinner than I had expected.- The Micro USB cable in my mind is a pro and a con, pro because of its universality and steadiness but a con in that it requires a serious push and pull to plug the case in. Possible easy wear and tear? I haven't experienced it yet but I will give an update after a few more weeks.And that's it! The pros truly outweigh the cons. It is beautiful, lighter than I expected, and provides a peace of mind I did not anticipate. To put it simply, as long as Mophie makes this product, I will be purchasing it for whatever my current phone is; job very well done! Already bought one for my wife. :) Seriously...

Well, after a day running around on the training range and making my way through some water obstacles, this phone failed to do what it said it could do. The phone went underwater only about 6 inches for around 2 minutes, when I pulled it out of my cargo pocket at the end of the day the screen had water behind it and the battery compartment was soaked. The phone is rugged and can take a beating; however, do not get it wet.

Lesson learned never buy a phone offline unless you've already seen it in person and know for sure what your getting..",3933,1 +3934,"Nice case + +I used my Cyan Lumia 920 ""naked"" for about a week before I got his case. 3 things I noticed during this week.1) When I put the 920 down face up on a surface, I was worried because it looked like the lens of the camera would be in contact with the surface.2) When handling the 920, I instinctively was on alert just because the 920 edges were so smooth and I didn't want to drop the phone.3) I didn't want to put the 920 face down on a table for fear of marring the screen of the phone.This case takes care of my concerns and more. After I put the case on, I have these observations:1) The case ""lifts"" the back of the phone off the surface to prevent scratches on the lens. The cutouts on the case are perfect to expose the lens and flash. For everyone who wants to take the best pictures the camera can take, you have to protect the lens and this case resolves my concerns.2) The case has a textured surface on the side edges right where you would pick up the phone. Immediately after installing the case, I was amazed at how relaxed I could now be when picking up the phone. The textured edge gives me 100% assurance now when handling the phone.3) There's something I think was specifically engineered into this case that's so brilliant I don't believe it was by accident. There's a ridge at the top and bottom front face of the case that serves to raise the screen off a surface about 1mm when you put your phone face down on a flat surface. I put a straight edge across ridges and verified this to my amazement. The ridge does not exist on the side edges. Rather, the case conforms to the curved edges of the phone to maintain that sensual rounded edge. I feel much better putting the phone face down.4) All the buttons still work perfectly. The buttons are not cut outs but contigous TPU material that they somehow make work as a button perfectly. I could focus the camera with a half depress without any problem at all.5) All the cut outs are perfect, including the bottom power and speaker opening.6) The TPU material is just thick enopugh to provide protection, but thin enough to maintain that sleek sexy 920 form factor. I can still fit the case and phone without any difficulty into my Nite Ize belt holster.7) The case is a transparent/translucent material so you can kind of see the phone underneath. I got the blue case since this company did not have a clear color. Protecting the phone was more important than a perfect color match but the blue color is close enough to Cyan.8) The TPU material is mostly glossy. If you look at the product listing picture, the only part that is matt finish is on the back side of the case surrouding the camera and to the left of the ""S"". Strictly a cosmetic feature.9) No problem at all using the case and charging the phone on the Nokia charging plate.10) I did also install the screen protector sold by this brand. I am happy with that product but I'll review that product separately.11) Am I happy with this product? Absolutely! The only thing I could wish for is this case in color clear and I'll probably get that when it becomes available. Definitely 5 stars!",3934,0 +3935,"Don't waste your money + +The screen was easy to apply and did not leave any air bubbles, but it does not fit my samsung Galaxy III.

R2d2 benefited from all bug fixes complained off for the prior 6 months for Droid 2, so this phone functions without a glitch. Everything that should happen, does happen. Phone quality and reception is as good as most dedicated phones; downloading Android Marketplace apps, syncing with google, etc., are all flawless. I migrated 700 phone numbers from my Palm phone easily, but it was tougher to get Palm dba schedules into google. PC sync is easy, just plug it in, and it becomes a virtual drive. Removable microSDHC cards are a plus, as you can upgrade memory when needed, and use multiple cards to keep a lot of multimedia, swapping when needed.Most Android apps I use are free, and many equivalent ones I reviewed need to be purchased for use on an iPhone.Unlike most phones I've owned since 1995, r2d2 consumes batteries faster because its more like a real handheld multitasking PC with a phone, that just a phone + PDA as most smartphones used to be. Without any use, it drops 10% a day, and with computer usage, it depends on what you do. Charging is fast, 50% to 100% in ~ 1 hour, and original Moto batteries are now only $5, so easy to get extras if needed, and its easily user replaceable.The biggest flaw in r2d2 is Android's internal security, encryption, which is well known as of this writing. We await the new API and Moto is making their own to fix this flaw sooner than the Android developers.

Generally, I find their service to be solid, so long as I don't need to call customer service. Good news is, I've rarely had the need to deal with them directly. I think customer satisfaction was a casualty of Shrinkage, but it's a fair trade for 40 bucks a month.I've never had an issue with Boost's coverage; no dropped calls, though data was occasionally sluggish. Now with this new Galaxy S3, my Boost experience is the best it's ever been. This phone is flat out amazing. Web and email load fast. Apps download quickly. Menus are snappy and responsive. The phone is just a pleasure to work with, all the way around. It's clear why this is Samsung's flagship smartphone. It's just that good.The camera is outstanding. There's virtually no delay after snapping a pic. Flicking through the galleries is equally a pleasure and silky smooth. The processor in this thing is clearly more than capable of handling the OS and multiple tasks seamlessly. I haven't seen a hiccup or glitch yet.The screen itself is outstanding. Outdoors, it does need to be brightened up a tad, but nothing unexpected. Everything is vibrant and crystal clear. Saturation is rich. Touch responsiveness is very accurate. Actually, the keyboard is very easy to work with. I seem to be pecking away with better accuracy than any of my other phones, with fewer messed up words and garbledy-gook.The body is quite thin and a bit of an adjustment, at least for me. But I got aZeroLemon 7000mAh Extended Batterythat supposedly lasts for days, so that will add some thickness. But I don't mind. I prefer having a little more to hang onto, and would rather not be on perpetual battery watch. Well worth the trade off in my world.This phone has way more features and capabilities than I even understand. I've decided to leave the screen tips active for now so that I can be reminded of all this phone can do. But it's all very inviting and easy to learn; just a lot to take in all at once. But for sure I won't get bored with it anytime soon. This phone will keep me captivated for a while, and for sure I'll be learning new things it can do on a daily basis. But I look forward to that; it's the fun part of getting a great phone like this one.The Samsung Galaxy S3 isn't cheap, but is well worth the purchase price, in my opinion. This is easily the best phone I've ever owned. Very happy with it indeed and glad I decided to treat myself to such a great phone. It's a whole new experience to the clunkers I'm used to.

Immediately after my original post, the customer service contacted me via email, offering a replacement battery with the USPS shipping label attached. Soon after I dropped off the return package, I received another email informing me that the replacement battery is on its way.I charged my phone several times now with the replacement Astro and I have not experienced the same on-off-reset issue that I had with the original unit and it does what it is supposed to do.I took 1 star off because of the rather short built-in USB cable and a bit of ""heat"" issue. It is convenient that I don't need to carry around a separate USB cable but due to the short length and design, I have to twist the USB cable to connect it to my phone and then stack the phone on top of the Astro, causing ""double"" heat while charging: both the phone and the Astro get quite warm ""together"" after a while - especially if I use my phone while charging.If the built-in cable was just about 1-2 inches longer, it would have been a 5 star product - it will allow the phone placed separately from Astro while charging and there will be no heating issue. I could use a longer external USB cable but it would defeat the purpose of having the built-in cable.ORIGINAL REVIEW:I used this charger about 5 times so far to charge my Galaxy S3 phone and it works fine when it works. I only used the built-in USB cable to charge my phone. However, it suddenly lost the power (stopped charging) about 10-15 minutes after I plugged it to my phone. It happened twice already. The Astro battery was fully charged (4 lights) before I connected it to my phone.The first time when it happened, putting the built-in USB cable back into its charging USB port (where you plug back in when the Astro is not in use) a couple of times somehow reset the Astro and it came back to life. The same power loss happened again today, in the train on the way home, but the resetting trick didn't work this time. However, it did come back to life when I plugged it to the USB wall charger at home. When I plugged it to the USB wall charger, the 4th light started blinking immediately so the Astro definitely had at least 3/4 of battery power left when it suddenly stopped charging my phone.I don't know if I am not supposed to use the phone while the Astro is connected or I got a bad unit but I am quite disappointed.The unit itself feels solidly built, though.

When receiving a call, the reception and sound quality through Bluetooth is good. Then the music picks up right where it left off after the call.

Otherwise, wait until it really works with the phone and operating system that you actually have. It is great idea and one day it may be a great product...but now is not the time.",3950,0 +3951,"Great phone + +I'm surprised with the reviews sometimes. You want to buy something and you want to check whether people like it by reading the reviews but what you find is such different opinions that it's impossible to find out if the item is really good or not. So I bought this phone before anyone posted a review on amazon.I actually took two same phones - black one for me and red one for my wife. We are both happy as we use them as just the phones. I doesn't look cheap and it looks way batter then previous model w580i. I would even say that w580i is just a crap. I owned w300i before and it would be a great phone if not for the buttons. It didn't have green/red buttons to make a call and disconnect as all normal phone have. Instead it hasd C button. This phone has all the buttons you neeed and they are big and have enough space between them.The screen is big, bright and has good resolution. I like the menus and that you can create shorcuts on arrow buttons. Also Address book is accessible by pressing right button, camera is turned on by left button, menu is selected by ""enter"" button so you can program 4 arrow buttons anyway you want.I also considered z750 but read a lot of bad reviews about its battery. I hope this one performs better. People recharge z750 after 1-2 days, these two phones already two days since the last charge and still have 75% of their charge. I guess it will become worse but still...What else... You slide the phone to close it and it locks itself to prevent accidental press of a button, you slide it open and it unlocks or you can press two buttons to unlock it which means you don't have to open it at all unless you need to dial. I guess this is standard.The speaker is good and loud. You can even listen to the music on it (of course the quality is not like a boombox).One of the reviewers rated this phone with one star by saying that it doesn't have memory to store songs and the sync up software is bad. I can add to this that this phone doesn't have a flashlight, a karaoke, a scanner, a printer and windows vista premium. I guess this is because it's just a phone. What a sync software has to do with the phone? I don't even have this software so I have no idea if it's bad or not. And memory - 4gb flash card costs around 20$!!! And when you buy a digital camera do you get much memory with it? This review is just for the phone not for add-ons.I'm actually angry with all the phone manufactures that they don't make standard headphone jacks on the cell phones. You need to have an adapter and this phone doesn't even have one in the package! w300i came with one but it's a pain to remember to take it with you so I listened to the music just couple of times as I never had the adapter with me when I needed one. Shame on you SONY and everyone else! You already created a mess with batteries, charging devices and cables now you added this headache with the headphones.I don't know if the camera is good. it doesn't have a flash so it's like an ""emergency"" camera. I've never used a camera on the phone.So my resume. This is a great phone and the best I've seen so far. If it proves itself as reliable as w300i I would say this is the best CELL PHONE ever made.",3951,0 +3952,"Touch screen with a twist & smart phone without the headache + +This is a true quad band phone, it serves me well in hard to reach service areas. The touch screen is fully functional, but the slide out keyboard makes texting or note taking a breeze. Pretty good camera with a flash, the image editing software is very handy. This is a smart phone without having to have a smart phone plan and works well with ATT basic data package. Holds a pretty good charge, even though I average about 200-400 texts on a busy day. Great bluetoothe technology and syncs flawlessly with blue tooth in newer vehicles. The extra memory card you can install slips into the side of the phone, no having to take apart the phone to switch it. There is an mp3 player that allows you to play songs on your phone at a very decent volume, or through your car's stereo if its bluetoothe ready. I have recommended this phone to friends. I recommended it to my mom who is not to keen on newest phone features but with this she is able to text, take pictures and make calls easily. If you run too many programs at once for example, a chat aim window, a video game *monopoly which is awesome* and a text window, jumping back in forth there is a slight lag. This is very slight, closing the slider or hitting the end call button snaps the phone back and its all good from there. Also, one problem I noticed some newer phones have is being able to jump from 3g to 4g cell service areas automatically without having to restart the phone. I went through three phones with that same issue until I got this phone, no need to restart it jumps service areas without any problem.",3952,0 +3953,"Returned this phone. + +** Update 6.19.2011 **I have gone back to using an iPhone 4.** Update 5.19.2011 **I had to downgrade my rating from 5 stars to 2 stars. Yesterday morning, I received an text message from AT&T; that I had gone over my data limit (200MB). This is strange since I have WiFi on all the time, however, upon closer inspection, I saw that the phone had been chunking through large amounts of data for the past few days, at the same time on three nights in a row.Here's a link: [...] (pic)I called AT&T; and was told to turn on WiFi (it was already on). I was then asked what apps were running but it was at the home screen, so none were running. I contacted Windows Phone Support via Twitter but there was really no explanation except to make sure all third-party apps are closed (none were open). I was told that when the phone is sleeping, WiFi is turned off so all data goes through 3G. This would not have been a big deal except it was chunking through a HUGE amount of data at the same time each night.Kudos to AT&T; for handling the return and waiving the restocking fee. I am quite sad because I liked this phone a lot but if the phone will randomly chunk through a large amount of 3G data, even with WiFi turned on, then I need to look elsewhere. As an anecdote, I owned an iPhone 3G and 4, and never had an issue with data overage like this. I've also heard this was part of the ""yahoo mail bug"" but I don't use Yahoo mail.--Ok so I think I should start this review off with an anecdote. After my last experience with the iPhone 4, I decided it was time to trade-up/trade-in for another handset. I've owned the iPhone since the 3G model was released in July '08 and even stood in line to get it. Last July, my lovely wife and I upgraded and purchased brand new iPhone 4 for each of us. We were thrilled with the capabilities and FaceTime, and had relatively few issues with reception in our area (Los Angeles). Over time, I had some minor issues with the phone and had to visit the Apple ""Genius Bar"" twice for each of them. The first time was for a dead pixel in the CMOS camera, very simple exchange. However, this last time I was in there for issues with my home button, I was treated so poorly by their condescending tech bar that I did not want to go back to their store for service again. I know there are people who just love, worship Apple but I find their tech counter to be rude and unhelpful. That's my experience and opinion, and it certainly takes away from what was otherwise a nice smartphone. I sold the iPhone 4 to a friend who wanted one and decided to switch to a Windows Phone. To be clear, I do not consider myself a ""fan boy"" of any one device or platform--I own a Mac, a PC, an iPad 3G, and [now] a Windows Phone. That said, here goes...I've had really good customer service at my local AT&T; shop so purchasing it there was not an issue. I would have bought it through Amazon, however, I needed to buy it at the ""no commitment price"" since I had already used my subsidy for the iPhone 4. The young ladies who work there showed me all of their phones. One reason I did not go with Android is I did not care for the type of OS or the ecosystem. A few friends have Android phones, most love them but I just did not find any that I particularly liked--I looked at the Atrix 4G as well as a few others, just didn't like them. No major reasons except that it was personal preference.Display: I read a lot of reviews on the Windows Phone and update issues non-withstanding, I was particularly taken with the large OLED display of the Focus. Coming from an iPhone 4 with a Retina display, the screens could not be more dissimilar. First, the OLED has perhaps the most rich contrast I've ever seen. However, the Retina is definitely a bit sharper than the OLED. That said, the OLED is (for me) a bit easier to read in daylight when on black background. I noticed this with the (Amazon plug here!) Kindle App on the iPhone vs. Focus. Reading on the OLED display is definitely easier than on the iPhone 4, not because the Retina isn't sharp but because the OLED has far better contrast. You wouldn't think this makes a big difference but I noticed it was easier to read my phone when dialing numbers or writing SMS messages. This is all personal opinion and experience so your mileage may vary. My wife loves her iPhone 4 but concedes that the contrast on the OLED display is a nice trade-off from the Retina. Moving on....Software Support: The Zune software is chimp-simple to install on Windows 7. I run iTunes, Zune, and WMP12 and can say that iTunes on Mac is a lot more refined experience than it is on Windows--it's clunky and slow even on an i5 with 8GB of RAM. The Zune software flies and instantly grabs unprotected content from the iTunes folder. I've never run it before so installing it and syncing with the phone was a new experience. Compared to running iPhone + iTunes, the Zune + Windows Phone 7 experience and the learning curve involved is really the same. However, I must point out that there is one thing I discovered that you can do on the Windows Phone 7 with Zune that Apple has yet to implement --> ""Wireless Syncing"" When you are charging your Windows Phone in the living room, and open Zune software on your PC, it will check approximately every 15-20 if there are any changes. I have literally been adding content (music, movies, and yes APPS!) to my Windows Phone via WiFi instead of tethering to the computer. It's a killer feature that I wish my iPad had.Call Quality: I had the perfect scenario to test for call quality. A friend from out of the country called yesterday and we spoke for about thirty minutes. He said he could hear my loud and clear both on the phone and with the speakerphone on. No issuess with either one. One thing I will mention is that the sensor that tells the phone to shut off the screen when you are talking on it (Proximity Sensor in Apple-speak) seems to respond better to my ear than my iPhone 4 did. I'm not saying there was anything wrong with the iPhone 4 but I did nottice it was fussy about how I held it to my ear. I had it happen on each phone I had, even after a reformat, nothing changed. The Samsung Focus has not yet had this issues and I've clocked over two hours of talking on it. The screen has not turned on yet, no face-dialing either.Battery life: The battery is about what I expected it to be....charge every night. Nothing different than my previous iPhone 4 I'm afraid. You are, however, unable to turn off 3G service on the Samsung Focus to save battery. I presume this was an AT&T; decision rather than a Microsoft/Samsung decision simply for mangaging capacity issues on their network. This is conjectural but it would make sense. I would have liked to have the option but thus far reception hasn't been a problem. The phone will fall-back to EDGE if 3G service is unavailable.Music/Video: Bright and pretty. I'm warming up to the Zune experience slowly but if you can use the iPod app on the iPhone or iPod Touch, it's nothing you can't figure out. Moreover, it's much more graphically pleasing with windows rotating and flying around. The phone also came with a pair of in-ear headphones that look similar to my Apple in-ear headphones that I got as a gift--they allow you to change the volume, mute, answer, etc. Audio quality is pretty decent, I was listening to some of my old MP3s on it and the phone sounded great. I'm sure audiophiles will pinpoint differences but to my untrained, amateur ear I found it to be as good (if not better) than my iPod Nano in terms of sound quality.Camera/Video: The camera is beautiful, takes 5MP shots with Wide Dynamic Range (option is off by default). Flash, Sepia, and just about every imaginable configuration and customization you could want. The video at 720P looks the same as it did on my iPhone 4. I haven't seen a comparison video yet but I'm sure someone has posted (or will post) one soon. Word of warning: the flash is SUPER bright so blinding your subject is a factor to consider when taking closeups. The phone uses a dedicated Camera button which has 1/2 click and full click functionaltiy just like a regular digital camera. 1/2 click for focus and center, an full click to take the picture. It does not require a whole heck of a lot of force to snap a shot, it would easily replace a digital camera point and shoot. One thing I learned is that settings in the camera app do not save--I thought this was a bug--however, after a quick search on the Internet, it turns out this is by design so that when you take snapshots, the settings are predictable and you don't have to go back and re-adjust everything. The thing I like is that Anti-shake is on by default but 720P for video is not. I agree with the predictability factor but it would be nice to make those changes myself.Capacity: 8GB standard. I have not yet filled up the phone and use an iPod nano for walking and what not but time will tell if I need to upgrade it. I have read that it is not meant to upgrade without being formatted--again, by design. The memory card is ""integrated"" rather than added to the system, or so I'm told. The young lady who worked at AT&T; told me not to upgrade the memory unless I backup the phone first and reformat it. Point taken.Apps: First caveat, this is not the Apple ""App Store"" so some apps are not there (yet). Angry Birds is not on there as of this writing (5.9.2011) but many of the usual suspects like Amazon, Yelp, Twitter, Netflix, etc., are all on there and work as good as they do on the iPhone/iPad. I do like the Twitter app on Windows Phone better, it's a lot more intuitive after having used the Twitter for iPhone/iPad app. You might feel differently but I like the horizontal scrolling aspect of the Windows Phone version.Charger/Accessories/etc.: It comes with a USB charger (slim one, too), USB cord, in-ear headphones with extra mesh caps, manual, and of course the phone. The boxing is simple, nothing spectacular.3 Praises: Tiles are awesome. Windows Live integration is easy. I like the out-of-the-way approach of the OS.3 Slams: I wish Camera settings stayed permenant. Battery life could always be improved. 3G ON/OFF switch would be nice.I give this phone a solid 4.9/5. I am enjoying the WP7 experience and I think you will too.",3953,0 +3954,"DUH! Common sense goes a long way. + +Ok people. Wireless charging utilizes magnets inside the phone and charger to ""WIRELESSLY"" charge the phone so all of these type of chargers have a ""SWEET SPOT"" ! Just like the NOKIA Qi chargers , it all depends on how you place the phone to charge. You cant just slop it on there and expect it to charge every square inch of the backing.I personally use this with the DROID DNA and I can honestly say that this thing isn't going ANYWHERE! When removing my DNA from the NEXUS ORB you can literally feel the magnet pull the charger ever so slightly. I even set an orb up in my car and have NO issues. While driving the orb would almost roll over (top heavy with the phone attached) before disconnecting from the phone itself.Get one! MUCH BETTER THAN ALL THE OTHER QI CHARGERS ON THE MARKET!!!PLUS you can charge from almost any USB outlet (computer usb, Car stereo usb, etc...) without the wall plug unlike the NOKIA chargers that use a special wall plug.",3954,1 +3955,"Nice phone holder + +I purchased this holder for my samsung galaxy note i717 , and its a perfect fit. I have it mounted on my windshield and it hasn't falllen off as of yet. And the prize was perfect only paid 5.00 . Great purchase",3955,0 +3956,"Fantastic case! (Compatible w/ iPhone 4S) + +First off, this case (as ordered from this page on Amazon) does support the iPhone 4S. There is no need to buy the much more expensive iPhone 4S-specific version Otterbox just released. This is confirmed on my black AT&T; iPhone 4S. The proximity/light sensor is not obscured by the case at all. The camera + flash and Apple logo are lined up perfectly.Installation is quick and easy; see a video if you are unsure how.The ring/silent switch is not centered in the flap opening (an indicator this was originally meant for the iPhone 4) but it is not obscured by or touching the case. It is still fully accessible, just slightly lower down.The built-in screen protector is fine, without the crazy and annoying color noise other screen protectors sometimes produce. The feel is clean and responsive, with no loss of control compared to the bare screen. There is a slight tap feedback feel and noise because of the distance between the screen protector and the phone's screen, which can host another screen protector with no problems.The rubber seals all around the phone are tight and secure. The flap covering the 30-pin port takes slightly longer to reseal than the other ports because of its size. The Home button is not quite as responsive as I would like it to be, but it still usable. The volume and lock screen buttons are fully usable and perfectly responsive. The headphone jack can be accessed by removing the flap covering it.The case does add a substantial amount of bulk but I feel this is a worthwhile trade-off to protect this jewel-like phone. In addition, the belt clip/holster can also be used, with the suggested method being to face the screen inward to protect it. For people wearing skinny jeans, the belt clip may be necessary.The protection offered by this case is formidable and excellent. A rigid plastic frame encases the phone and a thick, shock-absorbent rubber layer covers the back and sides.Overall, a highly recommended case for the iPhone 4/4S.",3956,0 +3957,"The New Way to Listen to Music - I'm In Love! + +I've always been a music lover, and a little bit snobby about my music. Not in what I listen to, but in how it sounds. I'd much rather take the time to turn on the television, turn on the surround sound, connect the Roku player and wait for Slacker or Pandora to connect in order to get fairly high quality sound rather than simply listen to the speakers on my laptop. And don't get me started with the speakers on my husband'sSamsung Galaxy Tab 2 (7-Inch, Wi-Fi)or myKindle Fire, Full Color 7"" Multi-touch Display, Wi-Fi(although I LOVE my Kindle, don't get me wrong!)So I was beyond excited to give the Logitech UE Boombox a shot. I've been very impressed with many of the Logitech items including their mouses and am still in love with my Logitech light-up wireless keyboard. But I've never seen them deal with sound before, so while I was excited, I was a touch worried about how well this boombox would work.PROS:- The Box - yes, the box. I'm taking time to write about the box the Logitech Boombox comes in. It. Is. Fantastic. Just slice the tape on the bottom and lift up and voila! Your boombox is there, ready to work! The instructions and the power cord are underneath it. Even my husband was impressed with the box (and THAT is saying something!)- Setup - I'm fairly into tech, but don't do much with Bluetooth. The only Bluetooth item we have that can play music is the Samsung Tab, which can admittedly be a bit temperamental, so I was worried it wouldn't connect. I followed the instructions and turned on the Boombox (let me just say, the fact that the batteries were all ready charged? AMAZING!). The Bluetooth light lit up instantly and I was able to connect it to my husband's Tab within just a few moments! After that, any noise that came from the Tab actually came through the Boombox instead. Very cool.- THE SOUND - YES, the most important thing! THE SOUND! Everyone in my house today, including my husband, my kids, and my parents who stopped by, have been extremely impressed with the sound that can come out of this boombox! The base is nice and deep and yet the sound is beautifully balanced so that everything that we listened to, which basically consisted of older rock, pop, and 80's music (Never knock the 80's!) came out fantastic. My parents walked in when it was all ready going and immediately looked around for the speaker - they were shocked to find that the big sound came from such a small speaker! We could not only hear it downstairs, where I had the speaker, we could hear it upstairs as well!- Distance - According ot the manufacturer you can connect with the Boombox from 50 feet away - that is definitely accurate!- Weight - The Boombox is much lighter than I thought it would be, and yet has a solid enough feel to it that you know that you're carrying a high quality piece of equipment.- Rechargeable batteries!! - The first thing my husband complained about was that we were wasting two batteries. ""At least the Tab can be recharged"", he said. Except I got the last laugh when I saw the shock on his face as he learned that the Boombox has rechargeable batteries too!! I haven't used it for 6 hours straight yet, so I can't comment on the length of time it works.CONSOkay, if you check my other reviews you'll see that I can almost always come up with a con. I can't with this!I'm seriously, completely, totally in love with the Logitech UE Boombox. I recently installed a small photography studio in my home, and I have been trying to figure out how to get music into the room easily. This is the PERFECT solution! Not only can I tailor the music for each client through great free radio options, teenagers who come to the studio can play their OWN music through the speakers! This will make senior portrait sessions so much fun - I can't wait until next senior portrait season!If you love music, and you want an easy way to get amazing sound in a small package (and you have a piece of tech that has bluetooth on it), this is going to become your new best friend.",3957,0 +3958,"Good program, bad hardware. + +Nice program, bad phone.

Advanced call-quality features.ConsPlasticky body. Really, this lack of clarity on Sprint's LTE rollout is getting ridiculous.Bottom LineThe Samsung Galaxy S III is a top-of-the-line Android smartphone just waiting for Sprint to turn on its new LTE network.The new flagship smartphone from the world's number-one mobile phone company, Samsung's Galaxy S III ($199.99 with contract) is literally a huge achievement. If you love big phones with lots of options, the GS3 will deliver state-of-the-art performance with bonus sharing and media features that you're likely to continue discovering a year from now. Sprint subscribers now have two solid choices: The Galaxy S III ties with the HTC EVO 4G LTE ($199, 4 stars) as our Editors' Choice for touch-screen smartphones on Sprint.Editors' Note: The Samsung Galaxy S III models on all four major carriers are extremely similar, so we're sharing a lot of material between our various reviews. That said, we're testing each device separately, so read the review for your carrier of choice.Physical DesignAll of the new Galaxy S III models look the same, except for the carrier logo on the back panel. Each is available in dark blue or white (AT&T; also has a red option coming this summer), and they're some of the biggest phones we've ever handled. At 5.4 by 2.8 by 0.34 inches (HWD) and 4.7 ounces, the GS3 is slightly bigger than the already-large HTC One X ($199, 4.5 stars), although it's still noticeably smaller and lighter than the Samsung Galaxy Note phone/tablet hybrid ($299, 3 stars). That said, this is not a phone for folks with small hands.View SlideshowSee all (5) slidesMoreI'm not a fan of the huge phone. But I've given up on panning them because every time I suggest these handsets are too big, I get pummeled by comments from people who adore them. Huge phones are the thing. I accept it.The all-plastic body feels a little less high-end than the exotic materials of the HTC One series, but the phone is solidly built, and light despite its size. The front of the phone is dominated by the 4.8-inch, 1280-by-720-pixel Super AMOLED HD screen. Yes, it's PenTile, which can sometimes look slightly pixelated. But, no, you probably won't notice. Below the screen, there's a physical Home button, as well as light-up Back and Multitasking buttons that start out invisible, so you have to memorize where they are or change a setting to keep them illuminated. The 8-megapixel camera is on the back panel, which, thanks to its reflective finish, doubles as a pocket mirror.The default Automatic Brightness setting makes the screen too dim. Kill it and pump up the brightness and it's fine, even outdoors. It's not as bright as the One X's Super LCD 2 display, but it's fine.Unlike the competing HTC One X, the S III has a removable 2100mAh battery. Taking off the back cover also reveals the microSD card slot, which supports cards up to 64GB.loading...Call Quality and InternetAre you willing for Sprint to pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today? The EVO 4G LTE promises spectacular call quality with HD Voice...sometime in 2013, once Sprint gets the network running. But the GS3 lets you tweak your call quality now.Default call quality is good. Volume is on the high end of average, with no distortion from loud inputs. The speakerphone isn't quite loud enough to use outdoors, but it's fine for the car or a boardroom. The microphone does a good job of cancelling background noise. Bluetooth headsets work fine with Samsung's S-Voice voice dialing system.But as with so many things here, call quality gets richer if you burrow down into the GS3's menus. A Volume Boost button throws the phone into a super-loud, quasi-speakerphone mode for noisy areas, but that's just the start. Deep within the settings, there's an option to set custom call EQ. The phone plays you a sequence of quiet high and low tones and you tell it which ones you can hear, and then it EQ's calls accordingly. This is pretty radical stuff. I prefer my calls sharp, with more high-end, and the GS3 delivers.On data though, the Sprint GS3 is crippled. All new Sprint phones are. Although the phones support speedy LTE, Sprint has steadfastly refused to give us a rollout timetable for its new LTE network, leaving its high-end smartphones on the slowest 3G network in America. We tested Sprint LTE, and it's competitive with AT&T; and Verizon, but none of this matters a whit if Sprint won't tell us when anyone is getting it.This is why Sprint's Galaxy S III is getting a slightly lower rating than the other major carrier models. Sprint needs to get its act together. We will not give a Sprint phone a 4.5-star rating until the carrier gives its subscribers more information about LTE coverage.You'll have better luck getting your Internet via Wi-Fi on both the 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands. Bluetooth 4.0 and NFC are also onboard, and Google Wallet is preloaded.Our battery test didn't complete because we ran out of time. But that's good; we just about ran down the battery with an 8 hour, 35 minute call. This phone has solid battery life, and considering the battery is removable, you can carry a spare. That's something you can't do with the EVO 4G LTE.Software and PerformanceThe Galaxy S III runs Android 4.0 ""Ice Cream Sandwich"" with a whole lot of exclusive Samsung extensions. Performance was excellent in my tests. The Qualcomm S4 chip running at 1.5GHz is the fastest one we've seen in smartphones so far, and it's able to take on any app challenge you throw at it, including games on the HD screen. Our benchmark tests proved this, although they were within the margin of error when compared with the One X. Both phones are very fast.Exclusive new features include S-Beam, the ability to transfer files by tapping two phones together and using a combination of NFC and Wi-Fi Direct; S-Voice, Samsung's answer to Apple's Siri; TecTiles, NFC-enabled accessory tags that can change the settings on your phone, and lots of sharing and tagging options in the camera, such as the ability to automatically tag your friends' faces, and the ability for multiple GS3s within a few feet of each other to automatically share all of their photos.Many of these features work well, but they're almost all buried. The interface is something of a scavenger hunt. Take Smart Stay, a neat new feature which detects your face and keeps the screen from going black while you're looking at it. I love it! But it's not on by default, and the only way to turn it on is by going to the Display area under Settings. S-Beam is similarly buried, under the Wireless menu.Samsung helpfully pops up various screens telling you about various cool gestures you can use, like raising the phone to your face to automatically call someone you're texting. But it's a lot of information to absorb, and a lot of gestures that you've never used before. There's a sharp learning curve here.Compare this with HTC, which has been working to reduce unique UI elements. HTC's recent Sense 4 interface focuses on a few new features and makes them integral: enhanced sound, a faster camera, and solid social networking integration. Samsung offers a lot more, but it costs you a lot more mental energy to figure it all out.I'll also call out two minor disappointments. The screen rotated unexpectedly more often that I'd like. Also, S-Voice isn't as seamless or as complete as Siri. It's a fine voice-dialing system, including over Bluetooth, but I kept vocally stepping on its prompts when trying to ask it more complicated queries.Beyond that, there's the usual raft of bloatware from both Samsung and Sprint: I count 17 pre-installed apps, some of which (Samsung's Music Hub store) didn't actually launch, and some of which (Samsung Apps and the S-Suggest app) are frustratingly redundant. Beyond that, there's the 400,000-plus apps in the Google Play Store.MultimediaThe 16GB Galaxy S III we tested had 12GB of available memory plus support for microSD cards up to 64GB, which fit under the plastic back panel. There's also a 32GB model for $249.99 with contract, but given the phone's microSD support, I don't see the point of buying the more-expensive model. It plays all the usual music and video formats, including MP3, AAC, WMA, OGG, MPEG-4, H.264, DivX, Xvid, and WMV at resolutions up to 1080p.Samsung has customized both the music and video players. They aren't as good-looking as HTC's, but they're functional. Along with the typical music navigation, there's a frill called Music Square, which grades all of your music on a 2D scale from ""calm"" to ""exciting"" and ""passionate"" to ""joyful,"" creating custom playlists by mood. There's also an epic number of EQ presets, which change the sound in effective, if gimmicky ways.The picture/video gallery integrates Google and Facebook albums, and lets you sort your videos as a list or with thumbnails. The flagship feature here is Pop-Up Play, which can float a video playback window over other apps; I found it to be fairly useless. Netflix and YouTube both look good and run on LTE without any visible buffering. The phone also comes with Samsung's Media Hub music and video store, which has a solid lineup of recent movies and TV shows at industry-standard prices of $4 to rent and $15-$20 to buy.If you want to play your video on a big HDTV, you need to use Samsung's AllShare system, which like most other wireless video systems rarely works because your home network doesn't have the bandwidth, or a new-style 11-pin MHL adapter. Our old MHL adapters didn't work.The 8-megapixel camera takes good-looking, saturated photos that are sharp with little noise, at least in decent light. In our low-light test, the shutter speed dropped to 1/40 second, which will cause some softness if you don't have a steady hand. That's still better than many cameraphones. The 1-megapixel front camera also showed solid low-light performance. The video mode captures 1080p videos at 30 frames per second indoors and out with the main camera, which is more than we could say for the HTC One X.You get tons of gimmicky camera modes. HDR is considerably slower than on either the iPhone 4S ($199, 4.5 stars) or the HTC One X, and showed a tendency to create ""ghost"" images when I tried it. Smile detection worked well, and Share Shot lets you automatically stream photos to other GS3s in the area. Buddy Photo-Share tags faces with names based on the images in their social-networking profiles. Those last two are buried in the camera settings and while cool, you're not likely to stumble upon them easily.ConclusionsThe Samsung Galaxy S III and HTC EVO 4G LTE are both state-of-the-art phones. In our scoring system, they tie, each with unique features. The Galaxy has a removable battery, better video recording quality, and no hiss in quiet audio output. The EVO 4G LTE is made from higher-quality materials, has a brighter screen, a kickstand, a physical Camera button, better home-screen widgets, and HD Voice in the future. You can't go wrong with either.If these phones are just too big for you, go for the LG Viper 4G LTE ($99, 4 stars) packs dual-core power and the LTE future into a much smaller body. And if your upgrade isn't urgent, you may want to consider hanging on to that old WiMAX phone for a while, at least until you can find out when Sprint LTE is coming to your city.",3960,0 +3961,"A solid, basic phone + +Summary: Excellent for texting, good sound quality and decent battery life. It won't impress anyone who likes leading edge phones, but it is a great option if you're looking for a basic, text-friendly phone and don't want to spend the bucks for a smart phone.Review:My requirements for a new phone was that it have a QWERTY keyboard, be easy to use, and have a decent battery life. I went with this model since pre-paid plans are a perfect match for my needs, plus it is CDMA, which means in my area it runs on Verizon. Tracfone's plan (with TMFL) came in at a better price than any other carrier for my usage patterns.Build quality: Pretty good. It feels substantial, and the slider works well with very little play or sloppiness. The keyboard keys are easy to push and register a keystroke. The keyboard is also backlit, making it a snap to see what you're typing in low light. Also clear to see the key markings in bright sunlight. I was surprised at how well it was put together given the price.Sound quality: Excellent when speaking into the phone. Invariably, when I asked people how I sounded, they said they thought I was using a land line. The sound quality on received calls was also excellent. The speaker phone was decent. Not the clearest I've heard, but certainly clear enough that it didn't interfere with use.Camera: Not bad for outdoor pictures or very well-lit indoor shots. The quality falls off quickly in dim light.Screen: Very clear and easy to read. No problems with legibility even with my aging eyes. It does get washed out in full sunlight, but retains readability.Texting: Such a joy to use the keyboard coming from a non-keyboard phone! Texts are limited to 160 characters, but that's what I was limited to on my old phone, so no change there. I wish the keys were bigger (both on the keypad and the keyboard) but I have that complaint with every phone I've used. Still, it is worlds better than any virtual keyboard I've ever used on a phone.Web: Poor. It works, but this is not the phone to get if you plan on doing a lot of web browsing. Slow and clunky, and the screen is too small for any meaningful use.Battery life: Appears to be excellent. I've been using this quite a bit for 3 days, and still have 2/3 battery life remaining. (Update: been using this for a while now, and find that the battery lasts about a week.)Convenience features: Like the fact that with the key lock on, you can still just hit any key and the screen will come up so you can check the time without actually unlocking the keypad. Also, you don't have to do the unlock if you slide out the keyboard - it automatically unlocks. If you accidentally hit the browser key you don't get dinged for a unit of time if you cancel it quickly. That was a real problem with my older phone (a Motorola) which would ding me for a unit as soon as I hit the browser button.Value: Love the TMPL! This keeps my monthly cost to a pittance compared with a traditional contract. Activation went smoothly and easily, although as a new Tracfone user, I didn't have any minutes to transfer (I've heard transferring minutes can be a bit of a chore). Really like that texts only cost 0.3 units.Bottom line: This phone won't impress anyone who's into leading edge phones. But I use a cell phone to talk and text every so often (usually about 30 min or so a month), and perhaps access the Internet once in a blue moon. I wanted a phone that makes those activities easy and cheap. This fits the bill perfectly. Very pleased, and highly recommend it as a basic phone.",3961,0 +3962,"Terrible Customer Service!!! + +BUYER BEWARE! My dust cover door broke today and I was just told after waiting on hold with customer service for an hour and a half that effective May 1st 2012 Lifeproof no longer has an advance replacement policy. I must go without a case until I mail mine back and wait on a replacement. The dust cover doors on these cases break very easily and this is a common problem. By making people wait for a replacement, the company is hoping that people will just get fed up and buy another. This is a terrible change in policy and will cost the company any additional business from me or my recommendation to anyone else. I have purchased six of these cases and have recommended them to at least 50 people. Love the cases but customer service is very important as well, and this change in policy is a giant leap in the wrong direction. I will be posting this information on the customer ratings sections of the Best Buy, Amazon, Buy.com, and iPhone accessory web-sights along with a rating of 1 star.

It protected my phone from a few accidental drops, which was what is was designed to do. However, this is all the positive feedback that I have for this product.The plastic on this case scratches very easily, which gives your phone a rough appearance when sporting said case. This is really no big deal.About two weeks ago I decided to take the case off to dust and clean my iPhone 5. That's when I noticed that the anodized paint was chipping off. A lot of people who pre-ordered their iPhone 5 had issues with their anodized paint being chipped and/or their bezel too. I thought maybe that my phone had a shoddy paint job as well.Last week I decided to schedule an appointment with Apple's Genius Bar in hopes of possibly getting my iPhone 5 replaced. The day before my appointment I decided to once again remove my Griffin case to dust and clean my iPhone 5. I noticed that more of the paint had speckled off and was sticking to the clear plastic on the Griffin case. It was at this point in which I had to decide whether the chicken or the egg came first; rather I had to try and deduce whether it was Apple's anodized paint that was deficient or if the case was in fact the problem.The following day I visited Apple and they were happy to replace my iPhone 5 without utilizing my Apple Care plan, which was nice due to the fact that I would've had to shell out $50 USD and lose 1 of my 2 accidental coverages. All was well again.The next day I decided to wash out the Griffin case to remove any debris that may pose any threat to my new iPhone 5's anodized paint. I kept the case on for less than 48 hours before going to Best Buy to purchase a new case. I took off the Griffin case and noticed that a faint looking stain that resembled a watermark was on its clear plastic covering. Also there was the same watermark-esque stain on the bottom of the Griffin's clear plastic back that read, iPhone. Somehow that type of plastic on the Griffin case melds to the paint of the iPhone 5's backing and absorbs it to itself. Thankfully my newer iPhone 5 still looks flawless. I will not give this Griffin case another chance to defile its anodized paint.In conclusion, and to make a long story short: Do not buy this Griffin case for you iPhone 5, because it will definitely damage its anodized finish.

The material for the purse itself is interesting and thick, however in the making of the item the pattern was not lined up correctly (either straight or diagonally). Instead it was slightly skewed. Not noticeable outright. That, unfortunately, was not the only problem. The closing flap was also set slightly askew, the sides of the point differing in length. And, since the material on the back was set just off from the front, the difference of the two patterns is obvious. The strap was not properly sewn so that raw edges were exposed sporadically along the length of it. The worst thing is the smell of VOC's that emanate from the bag. I cannot be around it for too long w/o getting a little bit of a headache. I have a Note 2, and w/ a little tugging it fits, although b/c of the smell I haven't tried to do anything more than try out just the phone.Now comes the tricky part of extrapolation. All these things I listed could mean nothing. However, when I pair it w/the price, MY Conclusion is that the product was made by someone who does not take pride in their work.

It would just stop charging, before my phone was fully charged and before the bank should have been drained. It wouldn't turn back on until I charged it a little, then it would finish charging the phone.I figured there was maybe some trick I was missing, something I had done wrong, so I tried contacting the manufacturer. The only means of contact on their website is email, so I shot one off. I got a bounceback that it wasn't a valid email address.

Great Product.",3976,0 +3977,"If you intend to use the camera, beware... + +I bought this phone so that I would not need to bring my Sony 8.1 mp Cybershot wherever my wife and I went that we might like pictures of. No, I wasn't expecting QUITE as good of photos, but I was expecting an acceptable facsimile. Since the SE is branded ""Cybershot"" and has an 8.1 mp camera listed in its specs, I don't think that was an unrealistic expectation on my part.When it comes down to it, this camera is downright terrible. I don't know how other people use it, and I was able to coax a FEW 'okay' pictures out of it, but when you have something this bulky (and it is indeed bulky), you would expect it to take more than a 3-4 'okay' pictures out of over 120.From what I have gathered, this phone absolutely cannot focus on anything at night. So if you want to capture your night out on the town, the pictures are going to be as blurry as your memory. Also, if you plan on using the flash on anything with eyes, expect to see the worst red eye of your photographic life. Even in well-lit rooms after multiple pictures, people and pets alike had solid-red pupils. Every. single. time.I toyed with all the settings, gave it my best effort, but when it comes down to it, I understand the basics of using a digicam, and although this phone says Cybershot right on it, don't expect anywhere near that level of quality or functionality. I posted what was happening on the AT&T; forum, and received similar complaints from another user who guessed with great accuracy what kind of situations I was trying to use the phone in. This was not a defective model, the phone really does have concrete limits to how far you can push it.I am happily returning it to Amazon and I'm going to pick something else out. It's a shame, because although bulky, it's an aesthetically pleasing phone. Still, I don't have much use for all the advanced features of phones these days (if it texts, that's all I need), but this one seemed to call out to me to replace my actual camera. We aren't quite there yet, it seems.",3977,0 +3978,"RAVPower Genesis Reviewer Program + +I was sent this product for review from the nice folks at RavPower. I have had the charger for a little over a month. The charger came in very nice and secure packaging. I received the white version (but different than the one currently pictured- mine has no blue in the design).The charger is very slim horizontally, which leaves room for plugs to fit into your neighboring outlets. The ports light up with a red LED which is great for when you are trying to plug in a USB cable in the dark.Unfortunately, performance was a bit of a let-down. No matter what combination of micro USB cable I tried (OEM, aftermarket) and port I tried, I could not get my phone to charge as AC Mode on my HTC G2 running Android 2.3. It would always show as charging as USB Mode, which is much slower. Using an app called Battery Monitor Widget Pro, I was able to verify that the phone was only pulling around 300mah while plugged in, no matter what battery percentage I was at.I also tested the charger with my Kindle Fire HD 7 (1st Gen). While the BMW Pro stated it was plugged in as AC Mode, the app also showed that the device was actually discharging meaning it could not keep up with the draw needed. It was disappointing that it would only charge with the screen off, but still at a slow rate of around 300mah.I have not been able to test this on my HP Touchpad running Android 4.2, but will update this review when I do.Another review by UnforgivenReviva explains this common issue with aftermarket chargers and Android devices using micro USB. Because the pins are not shorted, the phone will only draw a max of 500mah and will only show charging as USB mode.I do not have any Apple iDevices that I can test out at home, so I can't speak for the charging capabilities on that OS but I am quite confident they would be able to get the full charge rate. Unfortunately, until I can test some other devices I cannot recommend this charger to Android owners for now. I will update this review once I am able to test out other phones (hopefully from different manufacturers other than HTC).

Or sometimes the Virgin Mobile screen with song gets cut off and it just turns off immediately.Since it is after 30 days, I can't return it.

It must have reset itself because it finally charged up again.The paper manual has no trouble shooting tips, but you can find tips like this on the Amazon reviews & the Virgin Mobile reviews for this phone.I also discovered by trial & error, that uninstalling & reinstalling some apps (like Netflix) will fix them...but that's a pain.Also there is a loud, annoying song that plays everytime you turn the phone on. Virgin Mobile customer service said it can't be removed. So I've had to develop the habit of putting the phone on silent mode before turning it off, to avoid hearing that song again upon start up.This is my first smartphone, and it's been really handy, but there are some more annoyances. Like when typing, the auto suggest will often replace properly spelled words with other words, making me sound like an idiot on my posts & emails. I have to spend time proof reading everything.

It is very sleek and to me, doesn't affect the lines of the iPhone at all. It doesn't add any considerable bulk (like the otterbox defender) and it has a wonderful sturdy feel to it. I purchased the case in purple. The purple is more of a deep plum than a bright, in your face purple. It is still very pretty though. The outer shell is hard but is sprayed with some type of textured coating so it is less likely to slide around and makes you feel like you really have a grip on the phone. The port covers fit snug and don't get in the way when charging with the factory provided charger. I don't think it would work, however, with a dock or any other type of mount as the rubber flap, when opened, is hinged toward the rear of the phone.Here are my CONS:1. Black silicone inner lining. Makeup (ie. foundation) rubs off on the black silicone inner shell. I like things to look clean, so this irritates me. I find myself constantly cleaning the outer edge of the case. (It does come clean though, so that is a plus). I haven't had any issue with dust or dirt accumulating on the silicone, only makeup.2. Camera cutout. This one is the HUGE con for me. I purchased the case knowing that some people had issues with the camera flash on the 4s but the positive reviews outweighed the negative, so I took a chance. Unfortunately, the case, even though it says it is compatible with the 4s, is not. The cutout for the camera flash is not large enough therefore when using flash photography it affects the quality of the photo. This is a huge deal for me. I uploaded photos to the product section so you can see the difference between case on/case off flash photos.It comes to this, I love this case and I would recommend it to anyone with an iPhone 4 or anyone with a 4s that doesn't care about the quality of their photos.**UPDATE **I wrote to Acase about the flash issue. Here is their response:Dear Customer,Thanks for contacting Acase.comThe flash issue is caused by the camera hole design. In order to totally avoid the flash reflection, the camera hole needs to be at lease 1 inch wide which will make the case look ugly. Basically, unless you really need the flash, you can set the flash to AUTO or OFF on your iphone 4/4s. For my personal experience, the camera of iphone 4s is very sensitive and in most of the conditions (even at night), without flash will take better photo shots. And, you can use software to adjust the photos.",3992,0 +3993,"great + +hard to get on but great quantity and quality for the price.

The phone I received is a Samsung Galaxy S III / SGH-I747, installed with a GT-I9300 old firmware version. As a result, the phone had a poor screen resolution and a very poor camera performance and a lot of bugs in applications. When I tried to update the software to the recent Android 4.1.2 firmware version the phone died and was very hard to discover why.The phone works fine with its original SGH-I747 firmware and don't understand why they changed to GT-I9300.",3994,0 +3995,"A Great Phone w/Boost Mobile + +I was skeptic because I've never had an Android phone before, and I've read some reviews about a touchscreen problem that comes with this phone. I decided to get one anyways because the problem was small, and indeed it is.Overall, the phone is very enjoyable to use. Smooth interface, good sized touchscreen, width/weight is good, the slide keyboard is responsive and I really enjoy the feel of it (contrary to some of the other reviews posted here on Amazon). I guess it's a preference thing. In addition, I am a heavy user of this phone and I find the battery to be good actually (I am comparing this to a brand new i-pod touch, which has the lifespan of a headless rat, and I only use that for music). The battery is good, considering you download an app to manage your battery better (I use Juice Defender. Otherwise, it's moderate.With the positives come the negatives. The phone is a bit slippery in terms of grip, and although the back design is nice, this baby can slip n' slide miles away. The camera is simply not up to par with today's standards. Pictures are quite grainy. There is that touchscreen problem, but I am not affected by it at all.As for the Service being BoostMobile, it runs very well. I get service mostly everywhere, calls are clear (more clear than U.S. Cellulars from what I've experienced, 3G is fast, and a monthly shrinkage plan down to 35 bucks a month after 18 months is a pretty decent deal. That with no contracts, I will take it.",3995,0 +3996,"awesome! + +i just received my item in the mail and i love it! everything is exactly as the description says. i received a stylus, a screen protector, and two of screen wiping cloths along with my case. the case is silicone and feels very durable and makes my ipod touch look soo cute! this item shipped fast too, it arrived before the estimated delivery date. :D great seller, will definitely buy from them again.",3996,0 +3997,"Awesome headphones! IMPORTANT INFO!!!! + +I purchased these for running because I was sick of constantly fighting with cords getting tangled on runs. At first I was frustrated because music would skip while running, but then I realized the human body acts as an antennae to some signals and a brick wall to others. It apparently acts as the latter to Bluetooth. In other words, since the antenna part of the headphones sits on the back of your head, your phone or device should also sit behind or at least on the side of you to retain a ""line of sight"". When I put my phone in my run belt in front of me the music skips, but if I spin my belt to the back I can run all day with no skips in music!!! Wish Jlab had told me that. Once I figured that out though these baby's work great through sweat and heat and the phone call controls and quality are top notch! FIRST CHARGE ONLY takes at least a full 8 hours before you attempt to use them. Jlab says 4hours but they are wrong... mine wouldn't pair until an overnight charge. Recharging however, takes only 30 minutes or so which is sweet! When pairing ignore the 5 second part of the instructions and just hold the phone icon down till it flashes. The fit is great and they would probably stay in my ears through a car crash! They are a bit tight for my larger size head but this is easily corrected by wearing them OVER my sunglasses. A nice feature is that they rest in your ears instead of going all the way inside so if the volume isn't all the way up you can hear traffic and outside noises easily. Speaking of volume they are LOUD! They sound superb with a little help from the equalizer app on my phone, almost as good as my $300 klipsh x10s. They pair instantly when I turn them on now and stay paired all day. These were a fraction of the cost of most of the other Bluetooth sets and I'll bet they put them to shame performance wise too. Jlab is a great company and they stand by their stuff. An easy 5 stars even though the instructions were more like 2 stars lol. Buy em'! You'll love them!",3997,0 +3998,"Pretty Good + +My previous phone (A LG EnV3) was a terrible phone, so I was looking forward to getting a new phone. The only thing I do with my phone is text and make the occasional phone call so I didn't want a smart phone, however, I did want a phone with a QWRTY key board. I also did not want a touch screen; therefore this phone was perfect for me. It was a nice cheap phone (free when I updated my contract) that fulfilled all of my wants. The phone also has a demo of UNO that you can play as many times as you want. The only thing that is annoying about the demo is that after every game you have to load the game back up all over again, but hey, free UNO games so nothing much to complain about. I haven't played with the internet features and e-mail features because I don't use that kind of stuff on my phone, so I cannot review that part for you. I love this phone; the only thing I don't like is the battery life. My old phone could last a week on a single charge with very little use. I could leave this on my bookcase fully charged for three days, not even touching it, and it'll die. Someone told me I had some kind of setting on in my phone somewhere that was killing it, but I have yet to find this feature. I forgot to mention that this phone has a SIM card in it and the headphone jack is not a standard size, it's the small one a 2.5mm I believe it is called so I have not used it to listen to music on, other than the speaker which works fine.Overall, this is nice little phone if you just want to text and make a few calls, but if you want something fancy then you should look somewhere else.",3998,0 +3999,"Horrible + +It only works when you rig the cable at a certain angle, complete crap, go with the menotek.

This car mount is easy to use, extremely portable, and works with different devices and not just the iPhone 5, which is great so you don't have to buy a new mount whenever you buy a new phone. You can securely mount it on your windshield or dashboard. The sticky pad is really sticky. I mount it on the windshield, and I had to pull it really hard to get it off. But I mount mine on the dashboard since it's closer to eye level, and it's easier to reach than mounting it on a windshield. I have a textured dashboard, and it mounts without any problem. The mount has two arms to secure the phone without any support at the bottom. I prefer a mount without any extra support down at the bottom so you can access all the ports without that getting in the way. This is especially the case if you're using it with the iPhone 5 since the lightning port and headphone jack are in the bottom. So far I'm really liking this mount, and glad I got this over the iOttie One-Touch Windshield Dashboard Mount (don't like the bottom support) or the Ciingo Mount (not sure how stable that sticky pad is over time, especially during the winter months in Seattle).

Maybe all these people complaining should try the Bluetooth. it would make a big difference.",4010,0 +4011,"Good Product with Big Reliability Issue + +Before I begin, you should know this is actually a 4 star product that went down to 1 star because of durability/reliability issue. And I don't usually write review, but I am compelled to write this one because I believe any company should deliver what they promised in their brochure.Before my purchase, I had checked out many other earphones and read many reviews on Jabra Sport+ Wireless earphone. Despite there are several negative reviews regarding its poor reliability/durability, I decided to take a gamble because there is one feature that I particularly value. That is their non IEM (non in-ear) design. To me, this is a very important safety feature because I am a road runner in Hong Kong and I need to hear traffic coming.So on 19/10/2013, I bough this earphone. My first impression with this product is quite positive. It is light, comfortable and fits very securely on my ear (once I changed to a suitable eargel). Bluetooth connection is easy and done in 2 mins (including time to read quick start). To my pleasant surprise, it comes with an armband that fit my blackberry 9900 perfectly. During my run (3 miles), it didn't fall out and everything just works. Sound quality is mediocre though, but acceptable for me. In a nutshell, everything was good and I would have gave it a 4 or 4.5 star.But then problems began after 10 days. In fact, there are so many problems, I do not know where to begin. First, 10 days after my purchase (six 30 mins running session), whilst I was running, it suddenly stopped working. Blue and Red LED indicator both signaled simultaneously, and it would not turn off untill battery was dead. I waited till next day, recharged it and turned it on, the earphone was back in working order. But there was static noise coming out, radio button is no longer responsive. Bluetooth connection was a bit tricky hereafter (Need to perform factory reset, delete connection profile.. .Blah blah blah ). Once I managed to connect it, it worked for 20 mins untill it broke down again. Waited till next day, it would somehow work again, but broke down after awhile. This is my third week with this earphone now, I am stuck in this loop of malfunction. Sometime it works, sometime it doesn't. Pure frustration.Now I am no engineer or electronic expert, but I strongly believe all this malfunction is due to sweat. I do sweat moderately and I used this earphone in Hong Kong (humid condition), but isn't sweat resistance & ruggedness a big part of its selling point. I already contacted customer service through email and they replied me within an hour, but it's just instruction on how to reset everything and it seems like a "copy and paste" reply. Due to my earphone was actually bought from a store in HK, they adviced me to talk to the local distributer as they cannot perform any refund or repair. (Fair point, but I would prefer them to take more initative in having a satisfied customer)Conclusion: If the above reliability problem is solved, I am sure this is a good earphone and perfect for city road runner. But as of today (7th November, 2013), I recommend people to stay away as I strongly believe the above issues are very likely to be a batch wide issue.",4011,0 +4012,"Does Not Fit in my EAR AT ALL!!!! + +I dont understand how this headset was manufactured!I have a normal ear and I never had a problem with speakers fitting in my ear comfortably before!!ipod's for example.However, the only way this would fit in my ear is if I hurt my self!I am a HUGE FAN of Sony and their products.

I had the Phone for two weeks before I returned it. It wasn't due to the quality but because it was not 3G as advertised. Comes with the standard apps and not much internal memory. The good thing is that you can install apps to the SD card, two batteries and a soft case. The back cover is very very hard to take off.The instructions was a lot to be desired. Android 2.39, wi-fi, bluetooth paired with ease. The APN went with the defaults according to your sim,both sim slot worked, you have to update your APN with your carrier settings to get the MMS to work and that's pretty much a given with unlocked phones. I had no problems or issues after updating APN. The internet is only edge.. The camera takes good pictures and videos. You do not have GPS it that is important to you. The description has been updated since I purchased the phone to reflect the proper specs. The speaker is OK, the feel is nice without the cover and it has a 4"" screen. If your looking for a good phone without a lot of extras this will work. The battery is like any Android you can get a good work day use out of it, I didn't find ebooks or games on mine , standard email setup,, I did not use the earphones so I can not comment on the radio. the music player good, It did support my 16GB SD card.

I've been waiting for a decent smartphone to hit Verizon, and here we go.THINGS YOU WILL LIKEThe screen is brilliant, and the touch interface is responsive. I expected to want the multitouch (which is disabled in the US on this device) but it's unnecessary here. You can still use it on apps, and on the browser you're not going to need it (you can tap to zoom, but unless you have trouble reading screens, you'll rarely need to zoom in. The resolution is very good, the text is crisp even in the smallest occurrences).Lots of apps. I'm sure the quality and variety have yet to threaten the iPhone's, but I'm impressed with what's available, and for free.Google maps is great. Last night on the walk home from a bar I called up a map of the area, located a pizza shop, hit the dial button on the map, and placed an order I could pick up. I've tested navigation once and it worked flawlessly. Quicker than my girlfriend's two year-old Garmin.Keyboard is okay. I prefer not to use it, and it's thin enough that you don't even notice it's there unless you want to pull it out. (A friend had a different slider that was fat as a cheeseburger, but here the device is very nearly as slim as the Razr.)THINGS YOU WILL DISLIKETakes a while to charge (1-2 hours). Battery life is good, if you can come home to your charger every night. (I get 20-36 hours depending on usage.)No dedicated phone buttons. It's nice being able to back out of the call screen entirely if you want to look at a map or something, but if you want to hang up you still have to bring back the phone screen, touch the button to return to the call, and then hang up.Overall this phone is great.

The phone is great for a phone with some smartphone capabilities, but as a smartphone, it has some annoyances.Firstly, the system doesn't use a stock ICS interface, but rather uses the GO Launcher with a Blu Theme. Not too much of a problem, except the lock screen. (I have a Galaxy Nexus and the lock screen displays the time and date.) On this phone, the time and date are relegated to the obnoxious wallpaper. The image you see is the WP Clock Live wallpaper (check out your favorite app store to try it out). If you change the wallpaper, you lose the clock on the lockscreen. The wallpaper is obnoxious because it's so bold and takes up HALF of the icon real estate on ALL of the screens. I couldn't find a way to rectify the situation. I use my phone for a clock too (in lieu of wearing a watch) - it's a bit of an annoyance but limits the customization of the interface which Android is known for being better than the competition.A slight nuisance is also that the system comes pre-installed with Facebook, Twitter, and Whatsapp. There is no way to uninstall it. I don't use any of those apps (a G+ person) and the Play Store notifies me (at least every day if not more) that there are updates for Facebook, Twitter, and Whatsapp.The audio on the speaker out is pretty decent, but plug in the headphones and things sound horrible. For some reason, the audio sounds very distant and echoey with the headphones. On top of that, there is a recurrent pulsing that occurs in the headset, you can hear it during music or listening to nothing. Not sure if there is some crosstalk occurring with the internal hardware, but it drives me nuts to the point where I cant use the headphones.For the price, you get a decent dual SIM phone. It seems really light in one's hand and the battery seems to drain faster than my other dual SIM GSM phone, I'm not too sure what's happening there. The 4GB of storage are on the pre-installed micro SD card, so if you want more memory you'll have to replace that card.Anyway, caveat emptor. It's an okay phone, but it's not going to be on par with the quality you'd expect like a Nexus, a Galaxy S, or HTC One type phone.",4025,0 +4026,"Lacks basic functions, great for everything else. + +This is a good phone with many features. It does well in all areas except for the basic function of having a conversation. It will connect almost every time a call is placed, and a call is almost never dropped. The problem is you cannot hear what the person is saying. When the volume is as high as it goes you cannot hear because it is scratchy and you dont get the persons voice. When the volume is as low as it goes you can hear the persons voice clearly, but it is so low that you cannot fully hear what they are saying. The people I have called say that they hear me perfectly..The speakerphone is good and can be pretty loud. It is not perfect though. It is a small speaker, not a large speaker so the sounds isn't as good. Though it sounds well for the size of the speaker.The phone does use alot of power. One average my phone only lasts about 36 hours making one 10 minute call.This is my second model of this phone i have owned because the last one i had stopped charging. I do not know if it was the phone or the charger, but it stopped charging. Thankfully i had purchased insurance for four dollars a month and they replaced it. I highly recommend getting insurance with this phone because theh phone costs 250 dollars. Four dollars a month (in my case) is nothing to make sure that if it brakes i dont have to pay another 250 dollars.This phone has many features, it really makes you think of seven years ago when cellular phones only had an address book. It's main feature is the camera. The camera works well, but in high resalution (sp) it can only take 27 pictures. In low resalution it can take well over 120, but there is drastic difference in the quality. It has frames you can use, and also has multiple color modes. Sepia, Negative and Black and White are just a few. It can take up to 8 shots in a row.This phone also includes voice memos and call screening. It has internet which doesn't work well with low service areas. I recomend at least ""two bars"" when using internet. It has text messages and it can send and recieve. It also lets you create personal folders. It almost always will send and/or recieve a message even in low service areas.I give this phone 3 stars because it lacks the main purpose of a phone which is calling, but it does have many features.

While the device did fulfill that function, I am fairly disappointed with the results. First, I should mention that I did not test the solar charging capability, so I am not going to even comment on that capability. As for the USB charge function, that seems to work adequately, and charge the unit up completely within a couple hours. However, when discharging (to charge another device) the indicator lights on the unit are almost useless. There are three lights that are supposed to indicate <30% charge (one light), 30-70% charge (two lights), or 70-100% charge (theee lights). In practice, however, the unit only displays three lights for about a minute, two lights for another five, and then for the next hour it displays a single light.My next issue with this device is that it is deceptively labeled as having 4440 mWh (miliwatt-hours) capacity. While this may be technically correct, the standard convention is to label batteries in mAh (miliamp hours), which would be about one fifth the value as represented in mWh, on a 5V device. The result? A device that has under 900 mAh is being sold with a number on the box that, while technically correct, is meant only to confuse the consumer. And I will be the first to admit it: I was confused, and bought the item thinking it had 4440 mAh. As a result, this device is only capable of charging my 1500mAh cell phone battery up about half-way.I am going to return this item and replace it with a device that has a much larger capacity, and I think I'll skip the solar charge function. While I'm sure it would be nice on a camping trip, a larger capacity device that could charge my phone all the way up four or five times should be fine.",4033,0 +4034,"Best Phone i have ever owned! Only one tiny problem that only crazy people will notice! + +Ok so, I do not want to write a large entire review here, I do not know about you but I do not like reading those. So here it goes, this phone is simply amazing! I have had phones from all the major operating systems 3 iphones 1 android and now this is my 3rd windows phone. THIS IS MY FAVORITE PHONE EVER. Now then next part I say I want you to keep in mind that I have a case of OCD and when I squeeze the phone very hard, in certain areas (sounding ridiculous already isn't it?) there is a very slight creak and even rarer, there is a slight movement (how this is possible with a unibody polycarbonate body idk!). However despite the creak which at sometimes can be heard normally, I still feel I could throw this phone at a brick wall and the wall would break! But now you can see the types of things that bug me, I mean im sure that if any phone is squeezed very hard in the right places then there will be a small creak. So when I say that besides that (and any other person would not even notice it) there is absolutely nothing wrong with it. It is perfect and I absolutely love it! (I have also never read of the creaking on any one else's review so either there is something wrong with mine or im just crazy! or both!) Either way you cannot go wrong with this phone it is just absolutely amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!",4034,0 +4035,"A Nice Headset + +I bought this headset to work with my Audiovox SMT5600, not listed by Jabra as compatible, but I took the chance anyway. The headset, which I purchased online, arrived with no instructions, but did include the charger, charger cord, belt hook, and several earbuds. A quick search online discovered the manual and pairing was accomplished shortly thereafter. All functions of the headset, including vibrating ring and voice dial, work with my phone. Sound quality is generally excellent -- it's at least as good as the phone's earpiece. All bets are off if you're out in the wind or driving with the window down, precisely the same conditions under which you can't hear the phone's own earpiece either. External noise such as a crowded restaurant doesn't seem to be a problem for my combination of phone and headset. The short boom mike seems to be acceptable -- nobody has complained they can't hear me. In fact, I can talk pretty softly under most circumstances and be heard just fine. External noise such as a crowded restaurant doesn't seem to be a problem for my combination of phone and headset. The battery is advertised to last a long time and it does. I haven't measured any run-down times, but the headset needs to be charged less often than the phone, which with bluetooth on needs a charge every couple days. The headset is light and, for me, comfortable; after wearing it 12 hours a day for the first several days I forget it is there. The headset is reversable by the simple expedient of rotating the earbud. The dorsal sping of the headset contains one button and one rocker switch. Because of the location of the switches they do not need reversing. The rocker controls volume up and down; the button combines on/off and answer/hang-up. Press the button to answer or hangup, hold for about 5 seconds to turn off/on. My phone hangs up when the other party disconnects and conveniently, so does the headset. The headset slips into the charging cradle like a knife into a holster. An accessory clip attaches to the charging cradle so you can hang the cradle (unplugged, of course) on your belt or waistband to carry the headset when it's not being worn. With practice, the headset can be put on with one hand. There is no provision for charging in an automobile, which would be inconvenient were battery not so long-lasting. Just pop the headset into the charger in the evening and you're good for the next day. On an extended trip the charging cord and cradle must accompany the traveler. Other than the lack of a car adapter, which can be remedied aftermarket, my only complaint is that the headset is somewhat wobbly on my ear and the ear bud occasionally works itself away from my ear canal. This is not always immediately apparent until a call is made/received. This is aggravaated by the fact that there is no way to adjust the headset, it being constructed of a plastic shell with a soft lining against the ear. Even the flexible shaft holding the ear bud does not adjust side to side. The headset is rated for up to 30 meters; this does not include walls or other obstructions. Jabra recommends you wear the headset on the same side that you carry your phone. Practice proves this. Lack of adjustability aside, this is a good headset with outstanding battery life. It's available at a reasonable price and, thus far, no other headset has wooed me away.",4035,0 +4036,"GPS does not work, Camera is meh, Samsung support is poor + +I actually purchased this product when it wasn't so old. A recent problem with my phone has made me decide on writing this review on the Samsung Captivate. The phone isn't too bad as it was pretty quick to run everything, took very nice video, and made and received calls perfectly well. The problem with this phone is that there are a few problems which absolutely no phone should ever have to deal with and Samsung has a history of insulting users of this phone for over a year. As for the problems, let's begin.The BIGGEST problem for me is the fact that the GPS does not work. A few people claim it has worked for them, but take a look at the android forums and you'll see customer after customer complain that their GPS has never worked. When I originally purchased this phone, the GPS would take a minute to triangulate my position. Sure this would be okay if it actually kept that triangulation. However, this phone will continuously drop the GPS signal. At times it would put me 10 miles away from where I actually was. It has become apparent that Samsung released this phone knowing that the GPS did not work. They promised updates for many months. When they did finally release the heralded 'gps fix', it turns out the update never actually fixed the GPS and Samsung simply stated ""it will be in the next update"".The second problem was the operating system updates. Samsung refused to offer the latest versions of the Android OS for the Captivate. The Captivate was one of the premiere smartphones; a smartphone that people paid hundreds of dollars for. So while other companies (and in fact, other Samsung phones) received the Froyo and eventually, the Gingerbread and Honeycomb updates, the Captivate was stuck with Eclair. I believe only in the past few weeks was the Captivate updated to Gingerbread and it was a year after Froyo came out that Samsung passed it on.The third, albeit not too important problem is the camera. To be blunt, it's pretty crumby. There is no flash and the quality is lacking. Not too important as it is a cell phone, but surely Samsung could have done better on a $500 product.To see other problems, simply check out the android forums. There are a lot of problems with this phone that should never have occurred. There is nothing overwhelmingly horrible about this phone, but the fact that there are problems which no modern phone should have is beyond excusable. This is my reason for giving it 1 star as no one should bother to buy a phone that the manufacturer never bothered to polish up and support.",4036,0 +4037,"Great case! + +This case is very sturdy and fits my HTC Sensation perfectly.Pros:-Two layer, dual protection. Silicone/rubber liner lines your phone, Hard plastic shell outer.-Buttons are covered - however the liner doesn't effect the workings of the buttons at all (you don't have to push them harder).-Not Bulky. One of the complaints I'd had with previous otter box iterations is that they can make your phone appear a lot bulkier than just the phone.-Amazon's price is amazing - I regret buying this directly from otterbox.Cons (for me):- The liner that covers your audio jack doesn't seem to want to fit flush. It may be because it's so new.Possible Cons for other people:-This is not a case that has the option to attach a belt clip/loop. If you like wearing your phone at your waist you would still need to buy a holder/holster designed for that purpose.All in all a great case for someone like me that puts your phone in your pocket or bag.",4037,0 +4038,"Another fake Morphie product sold by Amazon + +The one I received from HTH Investments, fulfilled by Amazon, was fake ... the packaging was almost perfect, but the product was cheap and barely functional.

They use the Amazon storefront, so they are rather overtly supporting counterfeit products ... this is not just a knock-off, this was a FAKE.Make no mistake, a real Morphie Juice Pack Plus is a quality product (I had one until last week, when it was stolen along with the iPhone 4s). That worked well, fit perfectly, and had a nice solid feel. The one I got from Amazon didn't quite fit, wouldn't stay together, wouldn't hold a charge, and felt *cheap*.",4038,0 +4039,"A Unique Case + +Amzer AMZ91161 Silicone Skin Jelly Case for Samsung Infuse 4G I997 - Black: The pictures on the site give you a good idea of what this case will be like. It has a nice rubbery (but more refined), textured feel. The case does add some bulk, but the contours on the back and corners provide a nice feel and grip so you are not just holding a rectangular slab. There is some friction to the case in terms of getting it in and out of your pocket, but not as much as some pure rubber cases I tried with my iPhone. In fact, the little bit of friction might keep it from accidentally falling out. You will either love or hate this case, but worth a try for $10.At the same time, I also purchased: SAMSUNG INFUSE 4G i997 - SMOKE TRANSPARENT CHECKER TPU SKIN CASE + CAR CHARGER CLA + HOME/TRAVEL CHARGER + USB DATA CABLE + CLEAR SCREEN PROTECTOR. This is a nice collection of accessories along with a thinner skin that also has a nice feel and look to it, although very different from the Amzer. Definitely slipperier although not completely so.

One USB port worked twice, sporadically (it worked for a while, then I unplugged and replugged device), then stopped working altogether. The other port lasted for a total of 5-8 uses, then fizzled out as well. Add onto this the fact that the charger drains power to light up its LED constantly, so I have to unplug it to try and save a little energy, and it gets low rankings for convenience as well.

Amazon sold it to me, not a third party seller so if Amazon does have it back in stock, be aware. The A version supports wireless 3G bands for AT&T.; The T version supports wireless 3G bands for T-Mobile. Now regardless of whichever version you get, you'll be able to get internet speeds at 2G/EDGE. But if you're on T-Mobile and get the A version, you won't be able to get 3G on their network.

I wanted to fix my cell phone at first but now, I want a Full Refund",4049,0 +4050,"Excellent stereo sound from a portable Bluetooth speaker - 4 stars + +I've listened to quite a few portable Bluetooth speakers, and most of them had acceptable audio quality, but the Urban Beatz ROCKBOX is one of the best of the bunch. Unlike most cube-shaped or spherical speakers, the ROCKBOX has stereophonic sound, but it's small enough (7.1"x2.4"x2.2") and light enough (9 ounces) to be considered portable. The speaker is attractive enough to have a place in a living room or playroom, but it appears to be rugged enough for travel in a backpack too.The speaker has a total audio output of 6 watts (3 watts each channel). That's enough sound to fill any room in most homes. I checked the speaker's sound quality with one of my music playlists. The audio was clean, vocals had good clarity, and bass notes sounded excellent to my ears. I checked the stereo channels for balance and separation with a stereo setup MP3, and they sounded perfect.The ROCKBOX paired easily with my Kindle Fire HD 7" as device "Urban Beatz SPB21" with no code required. The Bluetooth range and stability were excellent, with no dropouts until I was at least 30 feet away through a couple of interior walls of the house. The ROCKBOX has a control for pausing a track, then resuming, but there are no forward/back controls, which means that track control must be from the source. I connected the ROCKBOX to the audio jack of my Kindle Fire HD with the included 32" audio cable, and the sound was equally good. Four little rubber feet on the base of the speaker help to keep the ROCKBOX in place on whatever surface you place it on.The ROCKBOX has a built-in rechargeable 500mAh battery. The manufacturer says that's good for up to seven hours of play. I didn't fully test that, but other similar speakers that I've used typically had battery capacities in the 700-800mAh range. To recharge the battery, use a USB port or an AC adapter. The specs indicate that it should be recharged with a 5V~500mA source, but I used a 5V~1A source, which worked fine and didn't damage anything.I seldom use my cellphone, and when I do, I don't like hands-free devices, so I didn't try the ROCKBOX for its hands-free call operation.I was impressed with the Urban Beatz ROCKBOX. It's attractive enough to use in your home or wherever else you use it, the audio quality is very good, and it's one of the few portable Bluetooth speakers I've seen that has stereophonic sound. The only negative that I found is the lack of forward and back controls on the speaker, which means that advancing or returning to a previous track must be done from the audio source. That's not a big issue with me, but with others, it might matter.A product sample was provided for review purposes.",4050,0 +4051,"It has been nearly a month + +I am sure when it gets here that this will be a great product.

There weren't many options in this category, so I settled on the Trident case.Pros:*Yes, it is HIGHLY protective.*Seems to be extremely good quality and durable. Will probably outlast the phone by a decade or so.*Makes the phone flat on the bottom instead of sloping (I guess that could be a con for some people but I like it)*The case makes the phone go from slippery to grabby--no longer slips at all.*Has little protective parts that cover plug-in holes and buttons. The ones over the buttons do not impede button use.*Cutouts very well defined--no sloppiness there as on some cheaper covers.Cons:*The wraparound piece doesn't go low enough on the phone and sometimes the silicone gets pushed off the side.*Bulky, makes a large-ish phone larger and hard to get in a purse or pocket.*Not crazy about the dull blue-green color, but it was the only green available. Should have gone with pink; would have been far more visible.*Plug-in covers can be difficult to toggle out of the way, esp. the one in the headphone jack. A minor gripe.*Just a bit pricey, but balanced somewhat by the quality.Overall, I'm happy with this case and confident it will protect my phone. That's what I bought it for, not its looks, but it would be nice if Trident came out with some more attractive colors!UPDATE: Just noticed today that the black silicone band protecting the bottom of the phone has broken. The case is still usable but I no longer feel it is adequate to protect my phone so I am here on amazon shopping for a new case.

I have been a hardcore Wacom fan but have been looking for a nice portable sketching gadget. I've tried a ton of these iPad stylus brands trying to find a way to use my iPad as a drawing tablet.THE GOOD - I must say, this is by far the best stylus I've tried. Pressure sensitivity is great to have but honestly, for the most part I don't even bother turning it on because most iPad apps compensate for the lack of pressure sensitivity with some really smooth effects that end up being nicer. And again, this IS the best of it's kind. Pogo did an amazing job making up for the iPad's lack of functionality as a drawing tablet. I have had a smooth and error free experience with this pen.THE BAD - That being said, I still CANNOT utilize the iPad as a drawing tablet. It's a dream that simply can't come true. I can sketch a bit and fiddle around, but the lack of precision is just too much of a hurdle. I'll sadly be making the switch to a pressure sensitive Windows or Samsung tablet next month. Only once did I run into the aforementioned issue of a program not recognizing the pressure sensitivity, but it was solved in less than 5 seconds by turning off and on the pen.CONCLUSION - I'm keeping this for my iPad and I would recommend it to anyone for whom COST is not an issue. Honestly though, pressure sensitivity on the iPad is a distant dream, and for most people, I would recommend a regular (non-pressure) stylus. Trust me, drawing apps are great at simulating pressure in your strokes. If money means anything to you, this is simply not worth it. If you absolutely need pressure sensitivity, don't use an iPad.",4076,0 +4077,"great screen protector. + +It was easy to install. I haven't noticed any problems using the pen ( Galaxy Note 8) either.

The edges of this insert are abrasive to the touch panel leaving permanent damage to the oleophobic coating.

Not a huge issue, but it makes for a less pleasant experience when tapping on the screen; especially towards the bottom.Overall, I highly recommend the end user not purchase the newest version of their case at least until they can engineer a design that does not damage the phone and provides for a better user experience.",4078,0 +4079,"Stay Away, Read Update!!! + +I ordered this but i must say that i was leery because of how much cheaper it was compared to all the other ones listed. Now I feel bad for people that don't because its very well made and does what it says, recharges things.Update: 3/25/13Ok so I was a bit hasty in my product review last time. I have an Ipad2 which battery capacity is around 6944 mAh. I let the battery on the ipad2 run all the way out and then connected the Oxford battery, that was charged all night about 12 hours, to the Ipad2. I made sure the ipad was turned compelety off. The battery had only charged my iPad2 to 57% when it had completely depleted itself. That means the Oxford battery's capacity is ONLY around 4000 mAh's. Talk about false advertising! When a product only does 1/3 the job it's advertised to do, that's blatantly misleading, and it should be removed from Amazon. I've tired this test 5 times and have got the same result every time. Good luck getting a hold of the seller too. I tired to contact them before i updated my review to no avail. Do yourself a favor and stay away from this product, because you only get 1/3 of what is described! Boooo!",4079,0 +4080,"Claims to be able to charge two cell phones but can't even charge 1 mp3 player beyond 15% + +I had high expectations for this product seeing as how it claimed to be able to fully charge two cell phones on one charge, being 4000mah and all. After receiving this item, I fully charged it which took about 6 hours. I connected it to my cell phone with it fully charged, in the sun, and my cell phone on. Within 10 minutes, EVEN SUPPOSEDLY CHARGING IN THE SUN this thing was dead, and my cell phone was maybe 5% charged.Someone claimed on here that you can run most USB devices ""indefinitely."" This is most certainly not the case. Once this thing is dead, you have to recharge it again for 6 hours, plug your cell phone in, and have it die again within 10 minutes. And even with your device off, it still drains this faster than the sun can recharge. Yes, even with the device off, the charger still cannot keep up. It doesn't give a seamless constant charge as implied. Not at all, not even in the sun. Once it's dead, it turns off and won't turn back on until it's charged again.This has to be one of the most useless products I have ever purchased. In fact, this thing makes it MORE inconvenient charging your phone. You'd be better off just charging your phone directly instead of through this charger. The aforementioned 6 hours it takes to charge is on A/C. In the sun, I have no idea because I have left it in sunlight for days, connected my phone afterward, and it died instantly instead of after 10 minutes.I purchased this because of the alleged constant power source and charge. If that is what you are looking for, do not look here. If you are looking for a very, very, very, low capacity charger with a pointless ""solar"" feature that has no use, then by all means...this is the product for you.",4080,1 +4081,"Great case! Highly recommend + +This is awesome - people have stopped me and asked me where I got this case. It isn't rubber like the otterbox so it keeps the sexy look you have of the iPhone but it is totally child proof for my toddler who loves to grab and throw it constantly! ;-)",4081,0 +4082,"Caveat emptor + +I just got one of these, and my impression so far is a positive one. Since there are already numerous reviews on what's good about it, so I will focus on what I didn't like...The phone advertises that it can be charged via USB. This, however, cannot be done unless you purchase a USB cable and their phone tools software separately ($30 for the latter). Also, the ""custom wallpaper"" and ""MP3 ringtones"" are also misleading. Either you purchase their Mobile PhoneTools software, or the only way to get ""custom"" wallpapers and ringtones is to pay individually for each one.The user interface is also terrible. It looks pretty (colorful backgrounds and icons), but it is not especially functional. The menus are all slow to respond (upwards of a quarter-second delay after every key press), and with the default settings, you spend more time fumbling through the oversized icons than actually performing the desired tasks. The phone book is especially awful. Rather than adopting a heirarchial phone book system, they keep it flat (ie. one entry per number). There are some workarounds to this, but even then, they lack the simple yet efficient system adopted by Nokia, Sony Ericsson, Samsung, and others.Finally, the memory... all whopping 5MB of it. There's about 1MB of crappy animated backgrounds and unwanted ringtones that you cannot delete as well, and no room for expansion memory (eg. flash memory devices). With flash memory at less than $20 for 256MB, I don't understand why Motorola would only put 5MB in their high-end phone (originally listed at $500+). Between the camera, custom wallpapers and ringtones (if you shell out the cash for them), and other media, that 5MB is really inadequate.",4082,0 +4083,"Decent phone for the money! + +Pros:-Cheap, almost 3 times less expensive as the comparable Samsung Galaxy Note.-Big Screen, 5.3 Inch qHD display-Big Battery, 2200mah-Jelly Bean/Latest Android OS-Dual sim card slot!Cons:-Not compatible with US 3G, only works on 2.5G (Tmobile Edge)-Touchscreen response is not the fastest I've seen, actually kinda slow compared to my other HTC One X (this particular example also went erratic when there was an excessive static from my hands)-Subpar Camera, its 8MP is only about 5MP real pixel...and at F2.8 it has a piss poor low light performance in addition to poor dynamic range. It simply cannot compete with Sony or Apple's brilliant camera phones.Overall:Its decent for a replacement phone if you've lost your old phone, or as an upgrade from cheaper phones. But if you are expecting like a Samsung Galaxy SIII/Apple Iphone 5/Sony Xperia Z/HTC One kind of experience, looks elsewhere, but you really shouldn't expect that much because this phone only costs 200USD unlocked...",4083,0 +4084,"A great buy + +I have bought almost every different case out there for my phone and each one has fallen short of my expectations. I have had the poetic case, which fell apart after a couple of week and offered little to no protection, iI have used the HTC double dip flip which lasted a few months but in the end began to peel apartand did not offer much protection in regards to shock absorption. I have also used the case mate dual pro (if I remember correctly, it's the only case from case mate for the HTC one), which offered reasonable protection, but the inner silicon lining was cheap and tore very easily while being loose on the phone. Finally, after promising that the next case I buy would be the otterbox commuter if this one did not work out, I decided to purchase this urban armor gear case. It has been the best case by far. One of my favorit parts of it is that it makes the back of the phone flat, for setting on tables which lets it not wobble around while using it. Also, the plastic used for this case is of very high quality and, no matter how dirty my hands have been, the white plastic back has not once begun to look dirty. This case also has incredible shock protection, seeing as I have dropped my phone from my LOFTED bed (about a 6+ foot fall) about 7 times, and the phone has been perfectly fine. Every time. I have had this case for almost 6 months and it looks like new. I will say that the case does make the phone a half an inch wide, but the protection this case gives is phenomenal and is nearly weightless thanks to it's design. I was skeptical at first when I read that this case was very light, but I was quickly proven wrong when it came in. Finally, I have received many complements on the case and I never tire of looking at it. For the silver version of the One, I would suggest the white case, but if you have the black version you will be able to pull off the other colors. All in all I am very pleased with this purchase and for the first time in my life am honestly contemplating purchasing a second UAG case for this phone because I enjoy it so much. I have never done this and I generally will do extensive research before purchasing a case to be sure to get the right one. I am not sure what happened that caused me to need this many tries to find the right case, but I never been happier with a case of any kind, and I hope this review is helpful to those in search of a case for their new HTC One.

The phone can't receive picture messages (good if you have kids) and you will reguarly have to delete text messages as the phone maxes out at like 20 or 30 messages (even with an 8GB micro SD card in it which, for some reason, can't bypass this 20 or 30 text limit).I can imagine that criminals would also love this phone as it's disposable and has the ability to use 2 SIM cards...

The ring tones are loud enough that she can hear them and the display gives large, easily readable characters. She also can hear the conversation easily. She is on my AT&T Family Plan and all that I had to do was install her AT&T chip. The only problem she had was that she had to enter the ""Menu"" to find a phone number. The menu function is foreign to her. Eventually she got it and loves the phone now. I would suggest that the ""Menu"" button become the ""phone book"" button. Then access to the menu could be done by someone else (like me) with a combination of buttons (say * and # at the same time) to program the phone. Then the person using it does not have to enter the menu for every day tasks. She was having trouble when she entered the menu function because she would select the wrong item and get lost in the menu. It is more difficult for older people to learn because, when in the menu, it only displays one option and they don't understand that there are other options they can choose. While lost in the menu once, my mother accidentally deleted all of her phone numbers.

It seemed to work well, although if it was too windy people reported static. But then I lost both the ear loops that came with it and had to order a set which set me back another $17+ for a package of 3. And the ear loops that you order have a thicker circumference than the ones that come with it, which prevents them from falling out so easily. So why they do not give that quality of ear loops in the original package is beyond me. I have had one of the ear loops break off inside of the hole for it and had to get it out with a pin. They also seem to stop attaching to the ear as well with time. Then, at some point the volume switch that is activated by pressing down on the top of the device quit working, as well as the redial button(which is the same button). And before that, I would accidentally hang up when trying to increase the volume or when trying to adjust the device because the voice activity sensor was not touching my face and caused my voice to break up for the person listening to me. The device also falls off easy and gets caught in my hair and glasses. I tried the jabra ear gels, but these did not help and seemed to bring the voice activity sensor away from my face. As for the background noise being eliminated it worked well in the car: it eliminated the noise from the radio and the wind noise that was outside of the enclosed car, but it did not eliminate the barking of dogs when walking outside. I did hear the other person well but that is worthless if they cannot understand you.

I was excited when they finally came out with the V7, so I ordered it from their website ASAP. Very small & lightweight - nice. A green backlight for the buttons (wished it was blue though). Programming phone numbers & voice commands for voice dial were all pretty straightforward. It came with some pretty lousy wallpaper so taking a picture & saving it as wallpaper was pretty simple. I was happy as a clam until I used it as it was intended for - a phone, & it fell short. Right away while making a call, I noticed that the earpiece volume did not adjust automatically like the old ""party animal"" did. Not a big deal, you can adjust it manually. The real problem became apparent when receiving a call - you can't hear it ring in a slightly noisy environment! After turning up the ringer volume all the way (to no avail) I contacted Virgin. The adviser told me that there was nothing that could be done; downloading ring tones would not help. And since this was a known characteristic, they were not going to try sending me a new phone. I really wanted this phone so I worked with it for a week. I found that you have to be VERY careful not to bump the buttons on the side - they adjust the ringer volume. The ""flash"" is nothing more than a incandescent light that has a white (not clear) lens, that kinda lights up your subject. I missed 12 out of 16 calls. I tried using vibe mode as well but it's not very strong. So I called Virgin back. I explained that the ring volume on my phone was not much louder than us talking. This time the advisor said that a ringtone of ""someone yelling"" might be louder, there was nothing they could do, no he would not be embarrassed if it rang in a library, movie theater or nice restaurant. The faint ring & weak vibe was a known issue with a prior audiovox phone (same model w/o camera) they sell as well, so no, they were not going to try another phone. To me this is a VERY expensive phone that you can't hear all the time. So I sent it back, very disappointed that Virgin is selling an audiovox phone similar to a prior model with the same problem.

You have to fold back the cover and while the phone is at your ear, your driver's license/credit cards/money are on the outside and exposed to anyone near you. Not a good thing especially if you are in a public place or walking while talking. A person using this wouldn't be aware if anything should fall out of the case. Needs some type of secure security cover over those items.Do you have to take the phone out of the case to use the camera? I didn't see a hole for it.

I think the Blackberry Style is amazing! It's so much faster than my old phone and I'm so happy to get rid of that track ball. The microphone on the Style is located on the front, rather than the bottom, so the party I call can hear my voice much more clearly (as attested by my mother). I love that I can connect via my own wifi network or to the Boost data network. That feature is probably standard on many smartphones, but my Curve didn't have that option. I'm crazy about flip- and slide-phones, so the Style's flip design suits me perfectly.I've read a few reviews where the user complained that there was only one convenience key. Personally, I like that there aren't a bunch of keys on the side. I was always pressing them on the Curve. The Style has only one convenience key and two volume keys on the right side. The ports for charging, ear buds and micro SD card (which was included) are on the left. While the camera is an improvement, its placement is unfortunate. It can be a bit awkward holding the phone while keeping your finger out of the viewfinder.Since I was upgrading from another Blackberry, I had the advantage of using the Blackberry Desktop Manager to configure many features for me. My email and Blackberry App World were migrated automatically, as well as my calendar, contacts and several apps that I use often. I was a little disappointed that a couple of apps wouldn't migrate due to OS 6 incompatibility, but I'll live without them (and maybe find better apps to replace them).I'm very pleased with my new Blackberry Style and I'll hopefully be using it for a long time to come.",4125,0 +4126,"Holds a Charge + +I bought this battery to replace the original battery in my iPhone 5 because it wouldn't charge for more than 4 hours. It took a little while to get the battery in the mail, which is understandable as it came from over seas, the product did arrive within the time frame that was promised when ordered. The battery did not come with the tool kit needed to do it yourself, but I was able to order one off of amazon for four dollars. You will defiantly need the tool kit as the screws are super small and not standard along with a very sturdy suction cup. Once the battery was replaced, a line of bars appeared in the center of my screen, oh no . . . epic fail? At first I was worried, but this was the result of a loose connection at the top and was easily fixed by taking the battery back out and tightly securing a new connection. Then, the 'bar line" was no longer there & the phone operated as good as new holding a charge for a full 8-10 hours. I have had the replacement part in my phone for 2-3 weeks now and it is still operating at peak capacity, I have no problems with obtaining a charge or holding one. This was a good purchase because the iPhone is working just as it did before the battery replacement, and I didn't have to shell out a ton of money to maintain my Apple product through the manufacturer. Yes, SCORE!",4126,0 +4127,"A good phone for the basic user + +When I decided to switch from Virgin Mobile to prepaid T-Mobile, my phone choices were a bit limited, because I didn't want to spend a lot of money for the phone. There were only a few in the $200-250 range. I looked at the LG L9, but it was too big for my front pocket. I also liked that this F3 had a bit of a faster processor, LTE capability, and that big battery, so I decided on this F3 and I am, for the most part, pleased with it for what I paid.I have had this phone for 3 weeks now and I actually gone 2 days on a battery charge a few times. If I am at 60% or so at bedtime, I will keep the phone off the charger until it gets down to around 30%, and then charge it. Sometimes, if the usage has been light, it can hold out until the 2nd night. The screen is good, the processor, being a dual-core 1.2 GHz, is okay for light gaming, and LG gives you a lot of ways to customize, with different themes, fonts, lock screens, etc. Of course, the phone does have drawbacks, you couldn't get a budget phone that had everything perfect, right? :)There are a couple of little things...speaker is weak, and I sometimes cannot hear it in the next room. I wish the front camera was a little better. But what really concerns me is that it has a small amount of storage. I am glad that I have a Kindle Fire 2nd gen that I use for most things, and therefore I keep just a few apps and games on this phone. The good thing is, with the Android 4.1.2, I am fine with the stock launcher, messaging app, camera app, etc. So, for me there is no need to use up the small amount of storage I have by installing 3rd party apps, something I had to do in the past if I wanted increased functionality. Still, even with that, right now, I have about 432 Mb available...not very much, I know. It does have a micro SD slot for music, videos, etc., but the changes to Android with the Jellybean version prevent you from storing apps on the SD card...something I could do on my old Gingerbread phone. I have been thinking about rooting the phone to get around this, but I have never done it before and I keep reading about the possibility of bricking the phone. So for now, I am trying to be conservative about what I install on the phone.The LTE coverage where I am is very fast. I tested that at the T-Mobile store before I bought this phone, and it does not disappoint. I am currently on the $60 plan, where you get 2.5 Gb of high speed 4G (LTE if it is in your area), and then the phone drops down to 2G until the next month starts. (As an aside, the 2G is actually faster than the supposed 3G that I had with Virgin Mobile, so for the most part, I am very much happy with the 2G!) Three weeks into my plan, and I have only used 1.7 Gb of the 2.5 allotted to me.All in all, this is a good phone with lots of functionality if you are okay with the storage limitation. I would recommend it to a casual user who likes to play a simple game now and then, perhaps would use the camera for the quick shot now and then, but who is more concerned with the actual phone and messaging aspects.",4127,0 +4128,"Good...BUT + +This is a great phone with a lot of power and speed. This is suppose to be the best android phone on the market. If you really compare it with the other smartphones out there... there just as good but for less.

Why would you pay for a $599.99 phone list price (%59.99 2 year contract), when you can get an unlocked smartphone for $349.99. It comes unlocked (which means you can take it to any carrier if you did not know), 16gb of storage, a 4 inch screen AND the best part it comes with the latest version of Android; which is 4.2.1 Jelly Bean.

I love the big screen, I'm able to see Iphone emojis! && I'm able to use my Swype!

Fourth, the motors don't run at the same speed which I will have to try and adjust thru the program. This makes my robot spin around instead of going straight.

It looks a bit plasticky though. I'm not sure how well it would protect my phone if it falls down, there's no cushioning at all. The price is excellent, actually you can't do wrong buying it. But I will look out for another case as soon as there are more options for 5c phones on the market.Update several weeks later:Anker's customer service is awesome! They felt bad about the confusion caused by the reviews and the listing variation and provided the screen protector.

It has shortcomings, such as no row of dedicated number keys and a somewhat cramped layout for large fingers. But it really did the job within those limitations.But this new model, the Sierra, simply has no equal. It is a full-sized, five-row keyboard that folds into a small, highly portable package. (A nice little carrying case is included.)Truly this keyboard unleashes the full potential of PDAs an smartphones as productivity tools. While other portable keyboards with their cramped layouts are suitable for typing short e-mails and memos, the Stowaway Sierra is comfortable enough to allow for hours of typing,though of course, you might impair your vision first with the small screens of many PDAs and smartphones.There is a dedicated row of number keys (yea!) with function keys accessible as well.Key spacing is easily the equivalent of full-sized keyboards and the responsiveness is nice. Relatively short, but definite keystroke throws; a nice tactile response to each key, which is wonderful for fast typists. In my Sierra, there is a slight bow in the center of the four-segment keyboard. It doesn't interfere with my typing and I suspect it might be something that goes away over time.The Sierra can also be put to effective use with laptops that have less than full-sized keyboards. The Sierra is a lot more comfortbable than the keyboards I've used on some laptops. Even if the latop doesn't have built-in connectivity, it can be added with a USB Bluetooth adapter costing a few dollars.Another nice point is that you can download the drivers for your device directly from the ThinkOutside web site. Not a big deal, but a nice touch.A single AAA cell powers the unit. The specs say a battery will last two months, but I'd suggest always carrying as spare.Negatives? Not to me, but some people might consider the very shiny chrome exterior to be a real negative. It picks up fingerprints instantly. ThinkOutside has obviously heard and responded to the complaints engendered by this finish: they include a small micro-fibre cloth to wipe down the exterior surfaces. While the chrome finish doesn't bother me, I do think it is kind of a dumb design decision, probably influenced by Apple's equally brainless use of chrome finish on some iPod models. Not a big deal for me, but some people will probably get stressed about this.The other posible negative for some is the fact the keyboard does not form a rigid unit when the sections are put together. You don't notice this when the keyboard sits on a solid surface. But if you place the keyboard on your legs, there is a definite bowing as you type which some might find very disturbing. Putting a legal pad or magazine under the keyboard limits this bowing.Overall, the ThinkOutside Stowaway Sierra Bluetooth keyboard is simply the finest folding, portable keyboard ever made. I will not be leaving home without it.Jerry",4146,0 +4147,"The best android! + +I've had this phone for more than 3 months now - moved up from Nexus One.

The protective cover snaps on and stays on with no loose ends, I know this because it took more effort taking the cover back off than putting it on. The screen protector is better than what I expected for the price, I improperly align the screen protector 4-5 times, about the 4th time the adhesive was malformed and I had lint and other stuff on it but I sprayed an LCD cleaning solution to the adhesive side and scrubbed the junk off with the cloth they provided, the lint and small artifacts came right off, the cloth and LCD cleaning solution reformed the adhesive layers instead of removing the adhesive to my surprise so it all went well. The case is closed by magnets sewn inside of the material. I guess if you want the pouch to me more secure you can add some velcro or put on whatever creative stuff you come up with. My Rumor Touch with the protective cover fits in the case very snug so even if the case magnetic flap closure opens up if I come in contact with a metal surface, the cell phone should still stay put since it does take a bit of force to push the phone up out of the pouch with two fingers from the bottom hole in the case.

The car charger specs is a universal one for micro USB plugs, it has an IC chip built into it to switch from 600 mah to 1100 mah charging rates. Basically this means, it can charge/operate any other phone or GPS unit using a micro USB plug. The charger alone is worth the price of the whole package. The cover like all rubberized hard plastic covers, the rubber will eventually come off. You can go to any auto parts store or even here on amazon and order/buy a can of ""plastic dip"" to rubberize it again make sure you pick the color you want.

(Updated) + +Please note, this review is now a ""Amazon Verified Purchase"" because my wife liked this so much that she purchased one as a Christmas gift for her brother. He called and said it was great.ORIGINAL REVIEW:I was provided an Abco Tech Waterproof Wireless Bluetooth Shower Speaker for testing and review and was asked only to give my honest review, so this is what I found.What You Should Know Before You Buy:♦ This speaker looks fun with a nice design and vibrant colors (I got a blue one).♦ It sounds great and produces a high enough volume so you have no problem hearing it clearly in the shower.♦ Has basic controls on the unit to play/pause, adjust volume and skip forward and backwards in your song list.♦ Suction cup worked on glass and wall tiles in my walk-in shower.♦ It has a rechargeable battery that charges with a proprietary USB cable (included) that could be a problem if lost or broken.Detailed Review:♦ Look - The product came in a circular plastic display box that showed the product right through the packaging. Inside the box was the speaker, a proprietary USB charging cable and an instruction manual. The speaker looks cool and had a nice blue color. It has rubberized buttons and a rubber cover that closes off the charging port. On the front, it has a circular grouping of buttons that has a play/pause button, two combined FF/RW and volume buttons, a power button and a speakerphone button with microphone. On the back there are holes for the speaker and a large suction cup. It looks like it is built well.♦ Use and Performance - I plugged in the included USB charging cable into the unit and into my computer to give it an initial charge before testing it out. Once the speaker was charged, I easily paired it to my iPhone 5 a did a variety of tests to try it out.Test #1 (Sound Quality Test) - At my desk, I tried out a variety of music from some Disney kids songs to some Pop Music to Excision Bass Heavy Dubstep (the Destroid album), and the speaker performed very well. It reached pretty high volumes while still maintaining clarity. It sounded really good overall for a single speaker setup that is focused on being a shower speaker, not a HiFi speaker.Test #2 (Shower Test) - I then tried it out in the shower. I started playing a playlist on my phone and left it on the counter about six feet away from the shower. You have to get the music going on your device first because you can only really do pause/play and skip songs backwards and forwards. Best bet is to use a playlist or shuffle several songs. In the shower, the sound was really good. It got very loud at times, so much so, that I had to turn it down by holding down the RW button (which controls volume also). The controls were great for moving between songs and adjusting the volume. During my shower, I moved the speaker from the glass walls to various place on wall tile that had minimal texture to it and the suction cup stuck very firmly in all cases. I then had my wife take my phone out of the bathroom and walk it across the house. It stayed connected until it got very far away all the way to my office. I would say it had at least a 20 foot range through several walls. Plenty of range if you want to leave your phone outside of the bathroom and away from all that humidity.Conclusion:Overall, this was a great little shower speaker. It sounded great and had great range. It had nice controls and was fun. I told my Wife that this would be great for the kids to listen to songs while they were taking their bath at night, and I think she got a little jealous. I think she wants one for our shower. Looks like I might have to pick up a second one. If you are looking for a fun shower speaker that sounds good and works well, this one is a great choice.

Who wants to pay hundred of dollars for a plastic phone. The screen has a matte finish and its just gorgeous. Technically, it is on par with the latest and greatest on the market so do not worry about technical specs this phone has it all.The only technical complaints I have about this phone is that the width is too small. It could use .25 or .5 inch more on width for comfort of viewing. I don't need my thumb to be able to reach 97% of the screen. What for? I use my smart phone with 2 hands most of the time. One hand when i just wake up and am too lazy to move. Looking at the screen hurts my eyes because its so small, although gorgeous. I just wish watching netflix videos on it didn't make me squint and that when i flip my phone on it's side that there is actually room on the screen for the keyboard and to see what you are typing.Another complaint is the battery. I wake up at 8am and take the phone off the charger. By 2pm, I have made 20min in phone calls, checked email every half hour, and used apps for about 30minutes and am down to 20% battery. If I leave the phone on standby it seems like it could go 2 days without a charge, but when you are taking it off standby every 20min to check a message or an app, you won't go half a day on it... which doesn't make sense to me. The battery should be enough to get you through the day. Not to mention the battery has limited charges until it degrades, so when the battery is only holding an 80% charge you will really feel it then and be so sorry because Apple charges $80 for a new battery which is NOT covered by the phone's $200 extended warranty.It is a great phone, probably the best on the market, but let's be real. The 2 facts stated above make the phone less than perfect, but iOS is it's tragic downfall. It is not just a matter of getting used to iOS, it is a matter of accepting Apple's ludicrous policies. Get ready to NOT experience technology as iOS blocks you from accessing more than half of it.Sitting with your best friend trying out ringtones? Want to share one with her because you both found it hilarious and want to set it for each others contacts? Well, just go kill yourself cause that will never happen. YOU CANNOT SEND AUDIO FILES THROUGH TEXT, or any other way from the iPhone whatsoever. I wanted to share a couple ringtones with my Mom and cousin who also has an iPhone. Nope. Not going to happen. Your friend and your mom and your cousin will just have to buy the $2 app and download the ringtone for themselves and then upload it to iTunes on your pc via USB, put it on a ringtone folder, sync it back to your phone because enabling the ringtone is a whole big complicated process. YOU CANNOT SIMPLY SELECT THE FILE AND SET AS RING TONE. Meanwhile you just duplicated your music library so both your computer and iPhone has maxed out their storage and now you need to spend hours on end cleaning it up because it was not intelligent enough to sync your material without duplicating it 5 times.You need a credit card for iTunes, or a prepaid card with unlimited funds because every time you download an application, whether it be free or already purchased, the App will send a $1 authorization charge to your credit card and if you don't have money on it then you are disabled from downloading any free apps or from accessing previously purchased apps. Basically you are locked out of the App market, which makes up for most of the smartphone experience so the fact that you potentially will not be able to access it is ludicrous.Wow, I really paid more for less? I am so angry at myself for buying into the hype and want to return it and get my Android back. Using the iPhone makes me feel like I am playing right into a Fortune 500 companies pocket rather than getting the experience I deserve to get after spending so much on a device. It is rather insulting, my intelligence and bank accounts are insulted by Apple. I will return it and go with Android which does not infuriate me like iOS does... it only annoys me at times by various minor instabilities, but at least THAT I can live with.One more important issue. I have not been getting any 3g service on my phone at all. Sprint says their service is working perfectly. Apple confirms it is a perfectly good phone. After hours of technical support and exchanging the phone I seem to be the ONLY PERSON WITH THIS PROBLEM. Neither Apple, nor Sprint, claim to have had any other complaints about this. I seem to be the only one. I guess god just hates me huh? Or one of the companies are lieing.One last thought... with Apple's extended care, you pay $100 into it, and then $50 per replacement you get up to 2 replacements. So $200 for 2 phones. If you can sell them for more than $100, and you can even with a bad esn, then you have made a profit. Even used and old iPhones retain alot of value.

It's like there isn't even a screen protector on it! Easy to install, and great instructions. 5/5!",4160,0 +4161,"Underrated! + +I've been shopping online for at least a decade. I have rarely bothered to write a review for a product but instead rely on reviews for nearly every single purchase I make. This is my first pair of headphones that cost more than $20, and I got them for a major steal on eBay, brand new. However, I used amazon reviews to make my decision and would like to help out the community with an unbiased review. This will be a long review, and I'm going to try and sum up actual daily usage so people can get a good idea of what to expect since these are expensive.I've used these on a daily basis, on either an NYC Train, Bus, and walking around Manhattan and other boroughs for the noisiest parts of this review. All I can say is that the Noise canceling gets the job done. No matter where I am, I feel cut off from the outside world. If you put on the Noise canceling while standing next to a loud air conditioner or fan, I would say the sound heard by that object drops by roughly 70%. Once music is on, the music is all I hear. I don't know if it just drowns out the sound or somehow the microphones can distinguish from the music and outside noise, but to me not hearing anything on the subway is great. New Yorkers - I'm talking about when the subway starts grinding and shrieking when it makes a turn or hits that same part of the track on the daily commute where the volume of noise doubles or triples because the track is so old. I don't hear any of it. Also, I watch TV shows on my phone while commuting and that is probably the only time where the noise cancellation may feel slightly disappointing. It is still easy to listen and you won't miss anything, but you start to hear some of the deeper loud sounds such as truck engines when watching TV and there is no chat/background music in a scene. All of my friends who have tried the headphones love them and want a pair.The bluetooth is reliable and effective. I have an HTC Evo, desktop running vista (too lazy to upgrade to 7), and PS3 for bluetooth activity. I bought the amazon recommended Io bluetooth usb for like $10 give or take, and I think it was worth it. If I turn on the bluetooth, my computer automatically detects it, as does my phone, every time since I paired it the first time. On my phone there is a slight out-of-sync audio (half a second to one second) when watching Tv shows and the audio is slightly behind. This is more likely a limitation of my phone (which does not occur with wired listening), because I do not have this problem while watching video from the pc. I VERY rarely, maybe once every few uses, hear a skip or stutter with tbe BT for a second. If you are a perfectionist that might be disappointing, but I can't imagine it actually bothering anybody because it is so short and infrequent, but I just want to set proper expectations.As a student, noise bothers me while studying. I've kept the headphones on with the noise cancellation just to quiet down the surroundings in the school library or sometimes around the house. It is true that there is a slight hiss, kind of like when your ears are ringing but nowhere near as loud. Even though you can hear some sounds from something right in front of you, it feels far away. It may be a personal thing, but it really helps me focus on my work without being distracted.For hands free talking.. it works well. Call quality? Voice quality? My friends didn't know I was on a headset when using it, and I heard everything clearly. With NC on you can hear more in noisy situations than with probably any other hands free solution because they are typically cheap with a mic and don't block any outside noise.I love the rechargeable battery, and it is yet to die on me while always having NC and BT on. I charge every two days when actively using them during the week. Micro USB would be good for charging as someone else mentioned instead of Nokia proprietary, but it hasn't come to the point where I've actually needed it because I couldn't get to my regular charger in time. The design feels sturdy and of premium build like they have been made to last. You can visibly (on the interior) see small screws to unscrew the earpieces, so if the headband breaks it may be possible to get a replacement piece from Nokia, although that is not something I have researched. The ear cushions are comfortable and again feel like they are of high quality. I've worn these for 3 hours at a time and felt uncomfortable once or twice, but after taking them off for a minute and putting them back on there was no problem. There is a huge range in which you can place these on your ear, including horizontal and vertical axis for the ear cushions alone, with height for the headband. The functional keys on the right side are convenient when you have a playlist and know what song is coming, just don't care, or for a quick pause and I can leave my phone in my pocket. The bass boost has a good presence and it isn't weak like I expected it to be as opposed to earphones. I'm nowhere near an audiophile but I do feel like I can hear a large difference in sound quality versus a $1-$20 pair of headphones or the well known apple whites. The carrying case is very durable and comes with a smaller case which fits inside for a plethora of cables Nokia provides you with. Since I'm a student, I keep the case in my backpack and when I'm not using them throughout the day I just put them in the case. If you are frequently on the go and in on/off scenarios for listening to music they fit comfortably around your neck. It may be inconvenient to put them away/take them out on a regular basis, but by doing so and factoring in build quality, it appears like they will last years.The downside - I have yet to wear these at the gym or running. The ear cushions are very comfortable, and to be quite honest, I'm afraid to get any excessive sweat on them while working out because they seem somewhat absorbent and I don't want to mess up the internals or the cushions. Also, while fine for regular walking, I'm pretty sure they would fall off while running.Side note - A friend of mine just got Shure SE 535's... for $400 (retail 499 but on sale) and when researching what to get all I could hear was sound quality this and that. I listened to the same songs with both pairs, and I couldn't hear $200-$300 dollars worth of difference, and then theres $50 replacement cables. Everybody knows its always the wires that cause the problem.. one ear stops working, that is how it always starts. $50 to replace them after paying 400-500 for em? Pretty steep in my opinion, but it is for a different class of listener. Granted they were louder, had better bass, and had a much cleaner sound, but it isn't earth shattering or a ""whole new world"" as some people describe it as, unless you are really into that sort of thing. But then when does it stop? You could get even better sound quality at $1000, or $2000 etc. but it really is diminishing returns. For $180 you get extremely efficient BT, good noise cancellation, a hands free headset, and a pretty high end build/package.While there are negative aspects I mentioned, the benefits greatly outweigh any negative factors in my opinion. What it really boils down to is personal preference. Right now, there aren't BT headsets with 100% NC and insanely good audio quality (as far as I could find recently). My friend loves his Shure SE 535's and I agree that they sound great, but the convenience of BT was a large factor for me as well as price. All I can do is help someone decide if this set fits in with their price expectations for the features they are looking for.

I use a GPS app to track my runs so I need to have my phone with me. I was getting tired of having to pull my phone out of my pocket to see my progress as I ran. I looked into other armbands, but I figured to just get the lifeproof one because I already have the case on my phone. It's already waterproof so no sense I get an armband that forced me to stick it into a plastic holder. The locking mechanism is very sturdy and strong. I have confidence that my phone will not fall out even on my longer runs. It does start to slip a bit when I start to get sweaty, but I think this might be the norm. I could make it a little tighter, but I also don't want to cutoff circulation to my arm. Overall the product is well built and I would recommend this to others.I believe this armband is adjustable from 10"" all the way up to 15.2"". My arm is a little over 15"" so it fits nicely on me.",4166,0 +4167,"Great Armband that keeps your device dry yet usable while you exercise! + +The Minisuit Sporty Armband is perfect for those looking for an armband that stays on while exercising and keeps your device from getting damp through sweat. It works with the iPhone 5, 5C, 5S, and iPod 5g (I tested with all of these). It also works with slim cases on all of these devices, so needless to say it will fit your iPhone or iPod.It comes with two different loops on the band for different size arms. The headphone jack opening is a decent size and allows me to plug in my headphones into my phone through the armband. The armband also features a key holder, which I found works great for storing my key and a few dollar bills, just to keep on hand. I was also able to keep my building keycard and license ID in the back of the armband behind my phone.Let’s start with how well it fits. The armband fit very well on my arm, and most importantly stayed on and stayed snug throughout the week I’ve been using it to exercise. Other armbands I’ve used in the past would fall off, or would become loose and would start moving on my arm, which gets very frustrating while jogging. You can tell that this armband is very high quality and very well made, because it stays on. It’s also very comfortable; after about 10 minutes, I didn’t even notice I had it on.The armband is also great at keeping your device dry while using it at the gym. I sweat a lot during my workouts, so the fact that it keeps my phone dry was a must for me when using an armband. The armband itself is made of a neoprene material, which means it dries very quickly. To clean it, all I had to do was use soap in water. In under 20 minutes, It was dry - amazing! I also accidentally spilled water on it during one of my workouts, and for a second I was scared that my phone would’ve gotten wet. However, the armband held up, and kept my device perfectly dry. I wouldn’t suggest swimming with this armband on, as the back portion where you stick your phone in technically is slightly open, but it’s good to know that it can withstand a little water thrown on it.I think my favorite feature of this armband is that I can use my iPhone through the clear plastic, which is absolutely great to be able to change a song, or answer a quick text. In my tests, it worked perfectly, as if there was nothing in between the phone and my finger.Overall, the Minisuit Armband is the best armband I’ve used, and in using it, I’ve convinced my buddies at the gym to get one as well. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for an armband to use while exercising!Please let me know if you have any questions by commenting below, or contact me through my profile.",4167,0 +4168,"This case makes other iPhone 5s users jealous + +The gold aluminum Elago bumper is absolutely beautiful in coordination with my gold iPhone 5s.

This is a VGA quality phone, you won't get the same quality as megapixel camera phones- If you guys buy the unlocked phones, you won't get iTunes. It's a given. The agreement between Motorola, iTunes and Cingular is to sell phones in the U.S. with lower cost but restricted capabilities. For example, if you buy this phone in Europe (or some auction sites) - you'll be able to use a 512 MB trans flash card and comes with a standard MP3 digital player. However, if you buy this phone through Cingular in the U.S., you're limited to the 128 MB card and only up to 100 songs on your iTunes. They don't allow for more than 100 songs (again because of the U.S. contract agreement between those 3 companies)- SMS (Text Messaging) is overtly complicated on this phone. It lacks the ease of use of dictionaries and auto text input like Nokia phonesBut I have to give it props for the style and design. Their Research and Development division obviously knows what they're doing. It looks awesome and it's realy an eye catcher.

But why doesn't it back up settings (especially for e-mail accounts), Calender events, and most importantly to me, Notes. I keep lots of critical information in Notes, and as it is there's no easy way to back it up (the only way I've found is from iTunes on my PC into Outlook on the same PC).So, the device looks like it has a lot of potential, but only if it can backup more than contacts and photos.",4174,0 +4175,"Save your money - don't buy + +I've had the product for less than 12 hours and it's already broken.

But I had tmobile and the 2g speeds were maddening. So I went to the android side and got this phone because I did not want to spend a lot, but wanted 4g speed. I got that.Physical size is same as the iphone. Screen is fine. Those that say it doesn't view well in the sun, make sure your brightness is turned up. Mine defaulted to the lowest setting and it took me a month to figure out that was the problem.Phone is light. Responsive. Call quality is good. 4g speeds are great, though sometimes I lose a signal, but I think that's not the phone as I live in a dead spot.Transition to Android was entertaining. Not the closed system of Apple, so there is some funkiness that I liken to the PC world, though not that crazy. Rooted the phone to get rid of a lot of bloatware, and I highly recommend you do that.Changed the theme to look like an iphone as I mentally have committed certain icons to certain functions.Battery life is fairly good. I can usually go a couple of days without charging and I use my phone a fair amount.When I was in the tmobile store, I drooled over the Galaxy S2. But in the end, I have an ipad, so why do I need a galaxy.

What more could you ask for? + +First of all to everyone out there reading this, I ask that you disregard the negative review. I imagine if you drop any electronic device or decide to give it an unwanted bath it's going to break. That being said, this device does everything that's advertised. I went out to my local Best Buy today after waiting a week to buy it. Boy, should I have bought it sooner, this thing is great.It comes in very nice packaging, has a great instructional booklet on how everything works, and comes with the eight tips to use for the powercube that is included. I was amazed to see the Samsung tip in there as well, because as we all know Samsung can't possibly conform to the standard microUSB or miniUSB. The device feels solid and all the tips worked. Follow the instructions and you won't be dissapointed. What makes this device green is the fact that when whatever device you have connected to the Powermat, requires no more energy, it stops sending energy to that device, thus cutting back over the long run, your electric bill. Of course this all depends on how many devices you choose to use with the powermat.Along with the powermat, I bought the case for the Nintendo DSi and love it just as I thought I would. I highly reccomend the case for any gamer out there.It's true that 100.00 is a little steep, and because you have to buy another powercube, or case, depending on which device you wish to charge, at 29.99 each, it can get a little expensive.

If you regularly pull the phone out of your pocket like I do, it starts to wear at the finish on the case, and before you know it, you'll have an unattractive brownish color showing through.

The only down side of the CaseCrown case is that the surface is a little smoother than the Incase and if you have wet or greasy hands I can see it being easier to slide out of your grip.

I love the Android operating system. It's very elegant and easy to use. The Market is filled with Apps, and I was able to find an app for everything that I needed to do. I've used several different Android phones and generally found that the Android OS is reliable and stable. The phone and the user interface is also visually appealing. Simply put, the phone and the OS are beautiful.HTC is known for adding its own modifications to the internal OS on all of its phones, and this one is no exception. HTC has modified Android on this phone to make it better looking and in some cases easier to use. However, those modifications may also have introduced problems, as I'll explain, below.There also seem to be some serious build quality issues at HTC. The first phone that I got experienced an intermittent problem that caused the voice recognition feature to never work the first time. If more than 30 seconds passed and I tried to use it, it would be wrong the first time, no matter what I said. This was a minor issue, but there's really no reason why it should have occurred on one phone and not on another. I got a replacment phone, and the voice recognition now works, but it takes forever (up to 20 seconds after I stop talking) to work at times. There are a ton of posts on the internet about voice dialing problems on this phone, and so I'm not the only one complaining.Voice dialing is a major issue with this phone because the phone lacks any tactile keys. When you're driving and you want to make a call, you can dial on a phone with a regular keypad by touch. Since this phone has no keys, you either have to look at the keypad, or you have to use voice dialing. Voice dialing on other phones (including the Samsung Moment and even my very old Motorola RAZR) can work very, very well. Unfortunately, on this phone, it just doesn't.HTC also makes the Google Nexus One, and it too has had a mixed reception on quality issues.Even worse, my first Hero also had repeated crashes of software that should have worked fine, including the application that you use to program the phone with your phone # and MSID. These are basic phone functions, and they really shouldn't crash.My second phone continues to have application crashes for apps that I know should work fine, and do work fine on other phones. For example, today, the telephone dialer application crashed. The telephone dialer application is the application that gives you a dialpad so you can use the phone. It's a basic application, and shouldn't EVER crash. Yet, on the HTC Hero it crashed for me today.I suspect that HTC's modifications to Android are responsible, as the problems have occurred on two different HTC Hero phones, and I've found that other Android phones are very reliable.While HTC's modifications make the Android OS visually appealing, they also replace text based labels which are easy to understand with often confusing icons. HTC's modifications also make the phone take about 30 seconds longer to boot-up. There is simply no reason why HTC needed to do this to its customers. Honestly, I'd rather they at least give me the option to disable their enhancements...(Update: Apparently, you can disable at least SOME of them: Go to the Home Screen, Press MENU button, Press Settings, Press Applications, Press Manage Applications, wait for the OS to compute application usage, Scroll down the list until you see HTC Sense and select it to go to the Application Info page, Press the Clear Defaults button, Press the HOME button. You will be prompted to select which app to compete the action with. Select Home and chose to make this the default action. If you want SenseUI back, follow the same steps, but instead of selecting ""HTC Sense"" from the applications list, select the application called ""Home"" (not the HOME button), and then clear the defaults.)The processor may also be a bit slow. I've noticed on several occasions that the phone seemed to miss the fact that I pushed on certain buttons. For example, in order to answer calls on an HTC modified phone, you have to swipe your finger down the screen. On several occasions, I've actually missed calls because the phone didn't register my swipe until the call went to voicemail.Why not just use the hard buttons? Good question! The layout of the call and answer buttons makes them very hard to use for someone with medium to large size hands, so its difficult to push one of them without also pushing one of the other nearby buttons. The speakerphone volume is also a bit low, making it almost useless when you're in a car.Also, if you have a bluetooth headset and you're used to using the button on it to activate voice dialing, you're going to be disappointed. For some reason, HTC didn't properly implement that feature. So, if you push the button on your bluetooth headset or speakerphone, nothing happens. Again, this is a basic feature built into most phones nowadays, and it surprises me that HTC didn't implement it on their flagship Android phone.I've also used a Motorola Cliq (which also runs Android) and the Samsung Moment and found them to be quite reliable. The Moment definitely has a better screen, is a little larger than the Hero, and has a slide-out keyboard. Given my experience thus far, I think that I like the Moment better. Although it's a bit larger and I don't really care about a slide out keyboard, I can't stand the apps crashing on the HTC Hero..",4198,0 +4199,"doesn't work with incredible + +this doesn't charge my incredible stock battery. the charging signal the screen keeps blinking on and off (as well as the red charging led). looking at the specs the wall charger, the output is 5V = 500mA. the specs on the stock charger is 5V = 1A. i don't know much about voltage, but i do know that this doesn't work for me.",4199,0 +4200,"Good little speaker dock + +I bought this to use in my office at work and really like it.

Nice alternative... + +The phone itself is sleek, easy to use, and has many options. One of the features as mentioned above was disabled .. sorta disappointing as wifi tends to be faster than 3G but in fact isn't too shabby on this particular phone. The touch screen is responsive and the camera is crisp, clear and easy to use. Once you understand the features for the camera, (which also does video) is actually a pretty helpful little tool. The lack of a second source browser such as IE or Opera Mini really does set me back a bit... not something that can't be remedied and I'm sure with a little nudging AT&T may include that in a future firmware update. Some of the features are on a monthly fee such as AT&T GPS and there mobile TV service but at least its availble if your so inclined. I however feel like it should be included. Ringtones, pictures, and contacts are all easily downloaded and installed. Almost everything on the phone is customizable which I appreciate.

The headphone jack is off-centered and most annoyingly the usb charger hole in the case does not fit. Although you can manage to get your phone to charge with this case on, it does not 'click' properly because the case is off-centered. Although these minor details may not bother some people, and I am a bit picky, the photos that Diztronic has uploaded to Amazon do not properly portray the product they are selling, and so they are false advertising.",4205,0 +4206,"Great while it lasted (less than 30 days) + +I loved the case when I bought it and Body Glove has a good reputation in my mind.

But, the thing isn't glued to my ear...that's why I went with Virgin prepaid. I use it a few minutes a day to several minutes a week. I have phones at home and at work that I can use. Having said that, this Kyocera Marbl phone was supposed to be an upgrade (for me) and a replacement for the AudioVox 8610 that went bad after nearly 3 years. The good: nice features like speakerphone, easy texting, speed- and 1-touch dialing, and voice recognition make this a feature-packed phone for only $30 bucks. It's very compact and easy-on-the-pocket, with an internal antenna to boot. The bad: the battery takes several hours to charge, and can be depleted in only a few calls (with the 8610, battery usually charged in an hour, and would sometimes last several days). The Marbl has a nice look to it, but it's mostly all plastic, and the color screen doesn't have many pixels. The buttons are all very small. My chief complaint, though, is that when I flip it open to talk, when pressing it to the ear the screen goes out...not sure if this is a defect, but it happens every time. Simply flipping it open a millimeter or two beyond its fully-open position will knock out the screen, whether talking or just looking at the screen! Is this an energy-saving feature? I may exchange this phone for another if this proves to be defective. Or, I may upgrade to the Cyclops camera phone. I will update this review at a later time....***UPDATED***4/9/07Well, it turns out that the scenario I mentioned above was indeed a defect...it had a defective wiring that caused the screen to go out when fully flipped open. I was going to exchange it for another Marbl, but instead opted to upgrade to the Kyocera Cyclops!! My advice....UPGRADE!!",4208,0 +4209,"Piece of junk!! Paid $100. 00 on ... + +Piece of junk!!

I keep getting the run around so buy it from someone else instead of Ten One Design directly. I would hate for anyone to have the kind of headache I have had. Now they won't reimburse me for my total price only the cost of the product. So, I am having to eat shipping cost on a product I never recieved!",4210,1 +4211,"Owned it since August 2013, and I'm satisfied. + +First off I want to say that I'm not giving it 5 stars because it's not a "blow-me-away" type of product. I start at 3 as a base-line. Secondly I want to disclose that I was never a full-blown smartphone user. I text a little, listen to music a lot and make a few calls and if I need to use the internet I just go someplace there's Wi-fi. Therefore, according to America's cellphone providers and manufacturers, I don't deserve much of a mobile phone in the first place. And that's mostly fine with me.My first GoPhone was a keyboard Pantech that had a microSD slot for MP3s. One Christmas though I inherited an iPhone 3GS on its last legs and I was somewhat converted. I resolved to get an actual smartphone once it finally met its maker, however AT&T;'s GoPhone selection almost always consisted of grocery store flip phones and AT&T-rebranded-Chinese; Android knockoffs. Eventually they rotated the Lumia 520 and Samsung Galaxy "Express" into the lineup - and I took the 520 because I could afford $100 (August 2013 price) rather than the Galaxy's $250.Pros:-Slick design. Not too long to get adjusted to Windows Phone's button scheme from iOS.-This thing has survived more than a few nasty battery-ejecting drops including on concrete with the screen intact!-Easy to use and intuitive interface, Metro is all it's cracked up to be on Windows Phone.-I like the contact manager, especially when it comes to linking e-mail contacts with phone and social network ones given all the nicknames people use on Twitter, Facebook, etc. I probably use the e-mail client more than I use the one on my PC.Cons I Can Excuse Because It's A Baseline Phone:-This phone can get SLOW when you have enough apps running, plus the 8GB is already 1/4 used with "system files" which may or may not include the usual bloatware after updates. Be sure to clear out "temporary" files every now and then, and store your music and photos on a microSD card instead.-Not that many apps for it, because it's obviously not iOS or Android. The ones I do find tend to be stripped-down versions, no wonder some of them aren't even advertised alongside "Available on App Store/Google Play." Fortunately this is compensated for by IE (of all apps), which can run many equivalent sites in desktop mode almost as good as using it on a desktop.-No front camera. The rear-mounted camera takes decent photos but uploads them to SkyDrive at a measly and highly unusual 750x1150 resolution. It's also slightly hit-and-miss simply tapping the screen to auto-focus and shoot, about 20% of photos I take tend to focus badly with that method.Cons:-Nokia MixRadio is straight up bloatware and grinds this phone to a halt. I just use the Xbox-"branded" generic music player and Pandora if I want streaming music.-Speaking of bloatware, my Windows 7 PC recommends I download this utterly unsatisfactory Windows Phone app for transferring files. Dragging-and-dropping files works just fine, as well as Windows Media Player syncing, thank you very much.-I bought a new microSD card for it recently and it apparently lumped everything I transferred from the previous card into the Other storage category, rendering it unplayable despite formatting the card. I actually had to hard-reset the phone to get it to work and I'm thankful I had app backups enabled.-YouTube. The videos are fine but it's one of those supposed apps that's really a link to the website, and I have to switch IE to mobile mode because apparently the phone doesn't have an updated Flash Player for desktop mode - which is the only way some videos will play, apparently. Why?-Virtually every video I've ever taken that's longer than 5 seconds is unplayable though take that with a grain of salt since my aforementioned previous memory card was a non-branded "Class 10" POS.To summarize, it's actually quite packed for a GoPhone at a great baseline smartphone price and not too shabby for a starter. If you're not too into the world of smartphones but still want its capabilities, you won't go too wrong with it unless Windows Phone goes the way of Blackberry (which given Microsoft's deep pockets won't be for a while.)",4211,0 +4212,"Great CAMERAAAAAA phone + +Why people still asking for features from a phone that was made with certain objective, like a Bigger video resolution, this is a CAAAMERAAA phone, to make it more clear the bottom of the screen says CYBERSHOT, CYYYYBERSHOOOT.",4212,1 +4213,"One of the best in the market... + +Have owned two in the past two years and my daughter has another one.

I ignored them for a little bit and then finally e-mailed the company. They offered me a replacement skin for $2.95 shipping and handling or $4.95 s/h for the complete kit (with card and solution). I wanted to share this because I think people should know to keep the leftover solution in case they need to replace their cover - I didn't think that was made clear. I also thought that a less than 6 month life was ridiculous for this product. I'm not going to pay $2.95 s/h to replace a product that didn't even last 6 months.

I don't think the menus are very intuitive, I didn't like the keyboard (the space key never seems as sensitive as all the other keys), I didn't like the size of it, the camera doesn't take good pictures, you can't edit or rotate the pictures...

I'm getting a feel for how stupid the menus are, the call clarity is decent and I like the feature where you can draw on the touchscreen to open shortcuts. That's the only feature that I actually really like on this phone. Recently it's been a real pain to charge--every time I plug it in it shuts off and won't turn on again. The first time I had a problem was when I plugged it in to charge overnight. The next morning it showed it was STILL CHARGING and when I unplugged it, it died completely. I plugged it back in and it didn't show anything--no power-up screen, no charging screen, nothing. By the time I came home from work, it said it was fully charged. Since then, every time I plug it in, I'm not sure what will happen--if it will charge or not, how long it will take, if I'll be able to turn it on while it's charging, if it will vibrate when I receive texts while it's off, if it will show the power-up screen and shut off again. I tried taking out the battery and replacing it and I've tried a new battery and it does the same thing. This phone sucks. I don't know about you, but if I'm paying for a phone I want one that works.

The Galaxy Tab is basically the size of three Droid X screens, so much easier to type and to read.I haven't found any apps developed for the Galaxy Tab specifically, but most android apps I use seem to work ok or even better on the larger form factor. I am hoping, just like some developers have built apps just for the iPad, that soon apps will come out built to take advantage of the additional screen size.It fits well in my hand, but with the case it does not fit in my pocket. I also find that even in landscape mode that I can not really type with both hands. I hear there is an optional qwerty keyboard you can buy, but I haven't gone that route yet.I have tested out using Skype as a phone and it seems to work fine - at least when calling people in the US.And with T-Mobile there is no additional charge to the Galaxy Tab as an access point!",4225,0 +4226,"Great Product for price and fast shipping + +I ordered this armband on a Saturday and recived it on Tuesday.

The new Novatel is not at all like the previous Novatel mi-fi. It's bigger than the Samsung, has a cheesy chrome bezel, and little feet - showing that they designed it as a very small table-top router. The Samsung has a nice soft-touch matte plastic case, and is smaller than a deck of playing cards - it's like a stack of credit cards in size.The Samsung is much more similar to the previous 3G Novatel mifi in size and form. The Samsung works great in a pocket or in the sunglasses pocket on the inside roof of your car or under the visors. Also, it has LED's for on/off/low-battery, 4G, 3G, and network activity. The Novatel eInk paper display sounds good in reviews but it is very dull, hard to see, and ugly.You can set the Samsung to sleep after not being used for a period of time (like 30 minutes) to save battery, or you can set it to never sleep.You can safely ignore the negative reviews, which are entirely attributable a combo of the first firmware version, customers who have never used a mobile hotspot, battery-save 30-minute shutdown (which can be turned off), and also Verizon 4G is still in its early implementation phase and is occasionally off-line or slow, although those problems are slowly becoming much less frequent.Early online mag reviewers made a big deal over the Novatel having a battery indicator, but it only has 3 bars, is almost invisible, and the Samsung does warn you on low battery when the green on-button turns red.The Samsung charger is small and portable, the Novatel charger is the typical big clunker. The Samsung USB-A to USB-micro-B cable plugs into your computer OR into the wall plug, and will charge from either. The Novatel will NOT function as a wireless hotspot while plugged into a computer.The Samsung has one flaw - the browser interface does not contain an option to save the router's configuration as a file to your pc, whereas the Novatel has it.PS: I'm finishing up a small and completely free iPhone app that checks the Samsung charger status - it should be in the app store early July 2011, so if you have an iPhone search for ""HotSpot Sam"".",4229,0 +4230,"excellent case for 5s + +I'm so glad I bought this case instead of the life-proof case. I was hesitant at first because of some of the bad reviews on here. Some people said the camera doesn't work well with the case, the camera works fine for me. Only one time did i have an issue with the camera not focusing and that was when the object was very close to the lens. Some reviews said that the screen protector was poorly attached to the case and will break if you put pressure on it. It clearly says in the directions not to put pressure on the screen when the phone is not in the case. The screen protector is a delicate piece but once the phone is in the case it is not an issue.One of my favorite parts of this case is actually the screen protector, it is like a semi-rigid material.

I still advise for people to wait for these to become available and pay the normal retail $50 as I don't think the case is worth more than around its msrp. Also added more info*Now the actual review, the case is made just for the Series 7 Slate and I believe is the only one dedicated to it that's available right now. Samsung has made this very low profile so it barely adds any extra dimension. Your slate will fit very snug and ""snap"" into the corners. The interior is made of a soft matted material so it won't scratch up your hardware but the exterior is made pretty sturdy. The left, right, and bottom sides are exposed so all ports can still be accessed. On the back there are slits and cuts that line up perfectly with the fan exhaust and back camera. So this case will not deter dust...I would suggest getting another zip case for that purpose. Please also note that this case does not have a place to attach the digitizer pen...it was made purely just for the slate itself. Also worth mentioning is that the cover is simply a flap without anything to lock it closed. But the fact that the cover comes down perfectly between the two lower corner clips make it such that the lid doesn't slide around and the matte material on the backside does help create a slight bit of ""suction"".As stated by another reviewer, this case is meant as a stand-alone ""stand"" so will not fit with the Samsung S7 Dock when you have this on. Since the S7S and the Dock requires a very snug slide to fit, the additional backing of the case will make it too thick. I only use my S7S on the go and rarely use the dock so this isn't an issue for me but might be for some of you. I can see it as a viable problem because you can always set your dock up at a home/office desk permanently, carry your s7s on the go and dock it when you are at the desk without having to re-attach all the input connections. I'll refrain from docking a star for this because I do believe Samsung meant for this as purely an on-the-go carry case that acts as a stand without the need for the dock to make it sit upright. Although I agree, if they came up with another case solution that would allow for use of the dock that would be great.I bought the 11.6 inch soft Case Logic zip sleeve/case here on Amazon for the time being while I was waiting for these to come in stock and not overpriced and was afraid once I attach the Stand Case my slate would no longer fit in the soft sleeve...but I was wrong :) They actually fit perfectly now with no wiggle space, without having to force it in.",4242,0 +4243,"I don't like it at all! + +I was looking for earbuds with microphone to use with the iPhone.

I've had numerous Blackberries and never really cared for them. I had an iPhone that I liked very much (my wife has the 4th gen currently) and most recently I had a rooted Evo that I sometimes loved and sometimes hated.Things I like about the Focus/WP7:* the hardware camera button - being able to take a picture from sleep quickly is awesome. With two small kids I use my camera phone a LOT.* The OS itself. WP7 is fast and very smooth. I love the Metro UI and it seems to present things exactly how I would want them. I think it feels much more like an Apple product than a Microsoft one, and I definitely mean that as a compliment.* The Apps - There could definitely be more, but the quality of apps in my opinion is way better than what you find in the android market place* the keyboard - the SW keyboard is awesome. if the dell venue pro was on AT&T; I would have gotten that instead, but I really don't miss the keyboard.* the media player - I really like the zune software built in, and it is more like ipod/iphone devices in that it will play most any formats I throw at it, not nearly as picky as the Android media players were* live tiles - very slick implementation* the home/lock screen - I like the way that all the updates you need are delivered right there* carriers/oem have limited pre-installed junkware - one thing I never understood was why someone would want to make a nascar app uninstallable on a smartphone (sprint/htc, I'm talking to you). I LOVE that you can easily deinstall any of the AT&T;/Samsung apps if you want to.* This display - the Super AMOLED is BEAUTIFUL. I think it looks even better than the Retina Display on the iPhone4.* paying for apps through your phone bill - I know this isn't new, but after dealing with google checkout and how crappy the market was on Android I'll take this anyday.* email & calendaring- This is the most readable email client I've ever seen on a smartphone and I really like how the calendar is setup too. I sync multiple email accounts & calendars (exchange & gmail) and everything works great out of the box.The negatives:* updates - uh, anytime now MS. a little multi-tasking, HTML 5 support & copy/paste would be really nice* camera settings resetting everytime you leave the app - this is a widely known complaint and I've heard they're working on this* the ""expandable SD storage"" - I'm really pissed about this one. it ate an SD card and since I don't know anyone with a high end nokia smartphone I can't reformat it to make it usable. the phone would format the card, but once I got over 8GB of data on the phone, it became very unstable. reading all of the microsoft support documentation it sounds as if this is Samsung's fault, the microsd slot should not have been user accessable and shouldn't be advertised as such* quantity of apps - no where near the app store, but this just takes time* cost of apps - the apps are too expensive - usually 2x more than apple or google* All of the AT&T; apps cost more money - seriously, wtf? I thought the nav was pretty slick, but $10 a month? I guess I'm just spoiled coming from Google's Voice nav on Android (probably my favorite feature of Android)* they need to fix some of the weird horizontal/vertical issues on this phone (for instance in the web browser you can't access the url bar if it's horizontal)* the facebook client - the integrate facebook feed in ""People"" works pretty well, but I like using the actual facebook client, because it's full featured. the problem with the client is that it seems to stutter and slow down the whole phone. Not sure what's up with that, probably just a simple software fix.Things I'm neutral on (they're ok, or likely to improve):xbox live integration - I have a feeling this will get better over timecustomization options - I wish there were more, but I also can see how it keeps everything looking clean and crispLive integration - you can do some really cool stuff like sync your pics & info to the cloud, locate your phone on a map or make it ring/wipe remotely.

The case is attractive and the fit is tight and secure over the phone. This case is not terribly over-engineered; it adds only a little bulk to the phone. The front lip rises a little over 1mm above the screen so you can lay the phone flat on a table without scratching the screen. The back and sides have good coverage to protect from scrapes and short drops, but I'm unsure how well the rigid TPU will protect against shock in a 4+ foot fall. The case is squared off on the back and removes some of the natural curve of the Nexus 5. The TPU material itself is not very tacky and can feel slick, almost more so than the actual phone backing. This is great when sliding the phone in and out of a pocket, but it can feel a bit slippery in the hand. The buttons are responsive and have very little play in them. The protruding camera housing of the Nexus 5 appears to be adequately protected in this case with the camera face roughly 1mm below the flush level of the case on the back. The camera and flash cutouts are aligned well and don't interfere with the operation of either component. Cutouts for the speakers are large and unrestricted. The cutout for the power/data cable is generous and should accommodate most cables. Overall, I am pleased with the case and will be keeping it, though I'm still on the lookout for something that retains a bit of the curve of the Nexus 5 back and has a slightly 'grippier' feel to the TPU/rubber material.Pros: Quality build, good fit, protects the entire phone from bumps and scrapes (except the screen)Cons: Somewhat slippery feeling of the rubberized material, shape is less natural-feeling in the hand than the phone without the caseUPDATE: I ended up picking up another case for my Nexus. In the mean time I tossed the plastic bumper on this case and ran the shell by itself. This actually made the overall width feel much narrower and granted easier one-handed use of the phone. The buttons were recessed inside the TPU ridges that held the bumper in place, but they were still accessible and it made for a very accidental-button-mashing proof experience.",4249,0 +4250,"OK products + +The four cases fit nicely. Only problem with them is the phone charger is hard to connect past the lip on the bottom. The hole wasn't cut in a good position.

I've had LG cell phones in the past that worked very well for me so I thought I would give it another chance.

So far I was able to downdload apps that my Intercept wouldn't let me do. I took a picture of my son with the phone and it came out clear as day. I know the battery life is a little iffy but I think that I can work with that. I did download an app killer to see if that will help extend the battery. I'm home alot anyway so it easy for me to plug it in when needed. The phone is a little bigger than my Intercept, but it fit well in my wristlet purse.

The colors are vibrant and the camo print is perfect for a girl.",4253,0 +4254,"Missed the boat on some obvious problems + +I use my iPhone as my Alarm Clock, I have a 99 cent app that wakes me to a random selection of songs, and shows the current temperature and a forecast for the week. It's what I happen to like, my old iPhone 4 used to sit on an inexpensive JBL ""donut"" external speaker, that charged the phone, held it at a position where I could read my ""clock"" during the night, and sounded reasonable for the sub-$50 investment.When I got the iPhone 5, my thought was just to get this $30 extender and have my iPhone play music through the speakers, charge and aside from sitting ~2 inches taller - everything would be fine.First, the upside - this is a pretty high-tech device, that takes the audio from the iPhone 5 in digital format, and translates it to analog through the adapter without a hitch. The music sounded as-good as before (this is a cheap speaker - but I would expect that the audio quality will be the same as what you are getting out of the 30 pin connector on your existing iPhone 3-4 or iPod. Bottom line - no degradation in sound was overtly noticeable on my cheap system. I'd suspect that the same would be said on higher end systems.Where they missed the boat is in execution. I expected this connector to ""Latch"" to the 30 pin connector, and allow the Lightning adapter to click-in and click-out. Nope, lift the phone out of the cradle and it may or may not have this adapter connected to the bottom of it.Since a overwhelming number of iPhones have a case (and yes, even Apple sells protective cases for their line of products) - you would THINK that this adapter would allow for the case to work with this adapter. Forget it. I'm going home to take a dremel tool and a sanding disk to my new case, so I can grind enough material away so I can use this $30 adapter. Between a $15 case and a $30 adapter; the adapter wins. Still, this is something Apple SHOULD have anticipated and designed around - all it would take is to make the Lightning connector another 0.125"" longer.Does it connect the new Lightning enabled Apple product to an audio device? Yes.Does it do it elegantly and ""just work""? Nope. It should, there is no reason it can't, but it doesn't.",4254,0 +4255,"Worthy of the Phone + +Finally a case worthy of the phone. A raw iPhone 5 is a thing of beauty. Unfortunately, to be able to enjoy that, you'll have to hide it away in a case and bring it out like the family photos every once in a while to capture the enjoyment. Yes, the iPhone is beautiful, but aesthetically fragile. So what is one to do?Well, this case is a great start. After owning a different case and seeing some of the others on the net, I have come to the conclusion that they all offer some varying level of protection, however they all make the phone look like, well " a phone". Most cases make the iPhone look like a supermodel dressed up as a homeless person. The beauty may be there, but well hidden. Except with the Spigen Saturn case.This case is absolutely the closest you will get to seeing your iPhone in all it's glory and yet still get some level of protection, and I do say some. I have a couple of family members I would never recommend this to, but I'd never hand them a baby either if you catch my drift. With some people, dropping their phone every day is just part of life's ritual. If you fit into this category, then I would avoid this case, and I would instead recommend the Spigen Slim Armor. I very nice case for those who have a tendency to rough their phones up a bit. However if you are a careful, semi-anal type of person (like I am), this case can't be beat.The fit and finish is flawless, and the quality of the case is much nicer than most phones come straight naked out of the box. 95% of the iPhone's feel is retained along with it's great looks. The aluminum back looks fantastic, and you'll be hard pressed to find any flaws. As for drops, if you drop it 3-4ft on the concrete, damage would depend on how it fell. If it's face down, you'd be crying, in any other direction it would be fine. You would sacrifice the aesthetics of the case but your baby would be safe. Any drops on a hardwood floor or carpet would probably yield no damage depending on your level of luck.Now for someone like myself, I use a lined horizontal belt case, so my phone is protected to start, however as long as you keep it away from the keys in the pocket or purse it should be fine. Unfortunately, the case is so beautiful, I'll probably feel terrible the first scratch it gets! Such is life.I would highly recommend this case to anyone ()except as noted above). Professional reviewers all over the net thinks it's the best looking case they've tried, and would tend to agree.

It's an attention-getter in a good way. Strangers speculated with me about the model on which it is based.

That plus the interested looks you get - my experience. Sound quality was excellent, surprisingly despite some reviews. The design is similar to the 1940 Automatic Electric Company's model AE40 but with less curve on the end pieces.I'm not suggesting this handset for the home. That's because it's subject to range limitations and also there's no need to lock one's elbow with phone to ear in the privacy of one's house. Rather, this handset is perfect for out-of-home use when it's better to speak into the receiver rather than broadcast to a small earpiece and therefore everybody.The handset is cool.

When your phone reaches 60% battery power the case kicks into gear and charges the phone back up to full 100% battery power. The case should then be left with about 50% power to give you another charge when your phone reaches 60% again...it does not! I have returned 3, YES 3 cases, and each did not operate the way they were supposed to. The cases that I tried DID kick on when my phone reached 60% battery, but when it was completed with the charge the case would only be left with about 30% power, and this is not enough to charge your phone a second time, resulting in me having to charge both the phone and the case (which takes about 4 1/2 hours to fully charge the case)about every other day...I charge my phone every other day anyway, why do I need an expensive battery case to do what I was doing already??? I had several conversations with a very helpful Otterbox technical support rep who explained that the case DEFINITELY was not supposed to function this way, and was puzzled by the fact that after returning the case 3 times to 3 different stores they all did the same thing (actually, case #2 did not charge at all.) Now, on to the ION management app...After installing and uninstalling, several times, I found the app would not work properly either! The app never gave a correct reading of the phone's actual battery charge, it differed from what was displayed on my phone by about 5 to 10% less. Also, I noticed that my battery was draining quicker than it had before using this case. When I mentioned the quick battery drain to the first customer service rep I spoke to he explained it could be the app draining my battery. Really???...An expensive battery case that is meant to help add battery life, actually drains battery life???...I'm pretty sure that's not how battery cases work!I wanted to like this case, but Otterbox missed the mark on this one...there are just too many bugs that need to be fixed.",4267,0 +4268,"An absolute disappointment. + +I was very excited when I made the decision to purchase this ""case"". I read a lot of reviews (non-Amazon sites) and was well aware of some of the issues with the case fit before I bought it. But to honest, those reports of the case not fitting real snug were generous at best. This case has minimal (if any) rise over the edges and for that matter, it relies on the screws to hold it in place. Even with the case carefully positioned over the phone and tightened with case, there are still gaps of light visible through the case. I'm not talking at an angle...I'm talking literlly ""through"" the case along the edge of the phone. You can look right through front to back. That's such poor quality given the price of this case. The screen protector is sub-par at best. Although it's anti-static and easily removable... the problem with it is that is removes TOO easy. The suede back plate and ear cover ""pads"" have poor adhesive. The instructions say to put the suede back plate on last...and for good reason. It's because the case doesn't fit perfect around the phone and you need to adjust the suede to ""fill in the gaps"".Setting aside fitment issues, the biggest complaint I have is that it makes the volume buttons and mute switch more difficult to operate unless you have tiny fingers or long fingernails (both which I do not possess). About the only thing I can comment this company on with regard to this product is the packaging. Unfortunately, packaging doesn't make a product and you can't build quality into a product by presenting it better in the packaging.Lastly, if you have an iFusion docking station (a.k.a. The Fusion Phone), the Vapor Pro case will cause the iPhone to no longer be able to dock with the iFusion. Even with a docking port extender (hassle), it will still not fit due to the top of the phone protruding well beyond the upper bounds of the iFusion phone impression on the station.I sense the manufacturer attempts to make this a fancier product by including fancy packaging, an ""Element Case"" sitcker/decal (for your computer?) and another ""E"" decal as well. There's also a ""Certificate of Authenticity"" (a small card less than the size of a business card)...which I don't see the point of as a good knock-off is probably easy to come by. All that added ""fluff"" doesn't hide the fact that the case itself is not that good.Pros:- packaging is neat- look and feel of the case itself (pretty high-tech)Cons:- extremely high price- poor provided screen cover quality- poor case fitment around phone (many gaps visible...even after adjusting a few times)- renders operation of volume and mute controls difficult (especially for large fingers)- suede back keeps peeling up (poor adhesive?)- suede begins to rapid disintegrate when rubbed (especially around camera lens when trying wipe smudges from camera)- the case doesn't wrap up over the edge of the iPhone to cover the edges of the screen protector, so the screen protector can easily peel up at the edges...and dust and lint was already building up on (and under!) the edges after just a few insertions and removals of my pocket!",4268,0 +4269,"Kies 3.2.13 supports Outlook - 99% perfect + +As a long time user of Note 1, Note 2, and the rest of Galaxy line up, including Tab 3 8.0, I will share one key problem on this phone that is usually not covered by any of the other ""reviews"".If you're like me and use Outlook to keep all contacts, emails, etc., then DON'T buy this phone just yet (as of Oct 8th, 2013).I use Samsung Kies to sync all my contacts, tasks, notes, etc., but the current version of Kies 3.0 is BETA and lacks the SYNC function. Not knowing this, I activated my new Note 3 and configured all my emails/apps, then found out that my previous Kies 2.x was incompatible with Note 3. Note 3 only works with Kies 3.0 and since it doesn't have Sync function yet, my 3000+ contacts from Outlook can't be synced. The only other option is to sync Outlook with Google, Yahoo, Hotmail, or some other accounts. Unfortunately, POP3 or sync options require third part apps which usually costs some money while creating extra work. You can export/import contacts to .csv to Google, then sync. But this doesn't get all the custom fields or images in Contacts.Here is how I am temporarily bypassing the need for Kies 3.0 sync function:-- on your PC --1. Create an account with hotmail.com or outlook.com.2. Download Microsoft Outlook Connector and install it on your computer with Outlook. It's free download from Microsoft.3. When you exit and restart Outlook, the Outlook Connector will prompt for the login information for hotmail/outlook. That will automatically create new Outlook folders for both Inbox and Contacts.4. You should now have two Contacts folders - one from your Outlook and the new one for Hotmail/Outlook.com. Select all contacts from Contacts and copy/paste into the Hotmail/Outlook.com Contacts folder.5. Press F9 to start Outlook sync. This will upload all contacts to Hotmail/Outlook.com.-- on your phone --6. On your Galaxy Note on Google Play, download and install the Outlook.com app and login.7. When you install and configure the Outlook.com app, it will give you the option to Sync all mail and contacts to Phone. Do so!You can replicate Calendar by copy, paste, and sync just like Contacts. This process isn't automatic, but this is the best free option for now.For this reason, I'm knocking down a star. Otherwise, the phone itself is every bit as advertised. Slim, long battery life, great screen, very responsive, etc. Unfortunately, this is second to having all my contacts and calendar synced for business (and personal if you have a busy family/friend schedule!)Strongly recommended if don't mind the hassle with Outlook sync. Most everyone else will do just fine.-- Update 10/15/2013 --Kies 3.0 is still beta and doesn't support Sync yet.Now that I've used the phone in variety of situations, all I can say is that the battery life is amazing. I can go 3 days with light use where Note 1 had me charging every 4 hours and Note 2 charging once a day Watching Netflix non-stop (Walking Dead), I was able to watch 3 episodes with 40% still left on battery (Wifi).One minor complaint is the display. For some reason, my eyes get tired (eye strain) within seconds viewing this beautiful screen. I didn't have this problem with Note 1 or Note 2. Comparing them side-by-side, I was able to observe that the Note 3 has ""blurry"" fonts when tilted to one side at certain angles. The characters look sharp and clear when viewed dead on. Being a camera enthusiast, my guess is that the new integrated glass on Note 3 induces optical blurriness when viewed at some tilted angles due to the layering of the glass with touch mechanics. Or, maybe it's just my eyes. YMMV.-- Update 10/26/2013 --Samsung Kies 3.1.13103_22 was released, however it still lacks Sync function. On a side note, I am happy to share that the Note 3 camera takes fantastic photos during both day and night. Compared with iPhone 5 taken at the same time and Note 3 was by far sharper and better all around.-- Update 12/4/2013 --Kies 3.2.13114 is now available and features OUTLOOK Sync for Contacts, Calendar, and Tasks. However, don't expect any flexibility as this is very basic. For example, you are unable to change syncing direction. By default, it's set to ""Apply to both device and Outlook"" with no place to change it to ""Apply to device only"" or ""Apply to Outlook only"".This is not a show stopper as I could only imagine more improvements over time. It's not perfect, but I'll take it!!!!Upgraded from 4 to 5 stars.Thank you!!!!!",4269,0 +4270,"Top notch screen protector + +I recently left a review for the iPhone 5 version of this product but figured I'd add to this one (copied and pasted for the most part).This screen protector provides great protection and is easy to apply. I've been using this brand since I got an iPhone 4 three years ago, and now for my iPhone 5, as well as iPhones of family members. Never once has a MediaDevil screen protector peeled off, and I've never seen one scratch (not saying it isn't possible to scratch them of course, but they are pretty durable). The protectors are designed very well and it is difficult to tell they are applied. The cut is almost perfect, the transparency is crystal clear, the feel is very similar to the bare screen and the responsiveness is 100% in tact.Contrary to what some negative reviews might say these are easy to apply. Simply look up the hinge method of screen protector application on YouTube. It involves aligning the protector with the screen and taping it in place with masking tape so that it can swing on and off. The protector stays aligned in place so that when you remove the undercover you simply rub it in place. Just make sure you clean your screen with a cotton cloth and repeatedly press a piece of the tape over the screen to pick up any specks of dust (this helps ensure there will be no air bubbles). If dust gets trapped underneath of the protector press a piece of tape to the corner of the phone to lift the protector up, then press the tape to the underside of the protector/screen (wherever the dust is). This is especially easy if you wear nitrile, latex or vinyl gloves to keep fingerprints off the protector/screen.Ten bucks for two of these is absolutely worth it. MediaDevil puts out a quality product and I couldn't recommend it any more.",4270,0 +4271,"Tested on a Samsung Note 2 - Great Sound Quality + +Just got the dock today and I have to say that I was really impressed. This unit was provided to me for review. At first, I thought it was going to be a Samsung Galaxy version of the Bose iPod/iPhone docking station but this is a beast of its own.I really liked the fact that once you dock the Note 2, you have a cute little remote control to control everything. I thought that was very clever. Even without the remote, I still liked how you could control the volume at the base. The whole design of the station is very aesthetically pleasing. The installation manual that you get is straight forward but I had a little bit of difficulty getting it to work right away. I guess this is my fault for not being tech savvy. I even had to contact support to troubleshoot it but they were kind and courteous enough to help via email. The problem I had was to get the sound to play out of the dock speakers once it was in the dock. My fault for not knowing this but you have to make sure your phone is set up properly first (On the Note 2, Settings => System => Accessory => checkmark box audio output mode). Anyways, after I got it set up I was able to get everything to work very quickly.I do have one small complaint about the design though. The cradle that the phone sits in should be changed in some way. The cradle they put on is probably for a S2 cradle so I had to remove the S2 cradle and replace it with the Note 2 cradle (which is provided). However, the cradles seemed so flimsy that I was almost afraid to break it when I tried to take off the S2 cradle; and the way the Note 2 cradle snaps in is a little freaky to me but the phone fits like a glove in the cradle. My personal suggestion to future models is to have a one size fits all cradle if it were possible or to have an exchangeable cradle that slides versus snaps in. It feels like over time if you have to change cradles over time then it would snap or break. I think this is perfect for the person or persons who have the same style phone so you don't have to keep exchanging cradles.The sound quality of the system was great. I couldn't be happier. I was expecting a whiny pitchy kind of noise since the station was so small (like other stations) but quite surprisingly it sounded very full. I went ahead to stream some Netflix movies on there just for the heck of it and it was nice. I even tested the AUX cable and the quality was equally as good as if it was docked. There wasn't any pitchy or crackling noises in the background when it was on higher volumes so that made me happy. I didn't crank it ALL the way up just because I don't like the way any sound system sounds like that loud so I cannot comment on that. But overall, I was very happy with it.All in all if you are looking for a dock for your Galaxy, I think this is it. It sounds great and it's not outrageously priced like other systems I've seen out there; and won't give you that cheap pitchy sound like those lower end ones. A+ for me, just remember to get the settings right on the phone =)FOLLOW UP 12/14/12After a few days of testing and doing a side by side comparison to the Bose system, my wife notices that the sound generated from the gDock is more of a direct sound while the Bose has a more full surround sound effect. She felt that the room filled with more sound with the Bose. I just thought I'd share my wife's opinion because she has a better ear at music than I do. Still, I'm keeping my rating at 5 for the sound quality at the price point compared to other units; design and the functionality of the unit",4271,0 +4272,"Best Smartphone available in market + +Being a diehard Nokia fan, I had made my mind to buy my third nokia.

Kudos to Nokia..!!Coming back to 6682, I have this phone for about 5 days now and have explored most of its features by now. Here are my views:Looks: Impressive and very smooth.Size: Not too big.

Normal Media/Browser runs OK.Update after 10 weeks: 1. Pictures with flash in a low light place like restaurant might come out a bit grainy.2. RS-MMC memory is hard to find except at Amazon, that too occassionally.3. You cannot assign tones to different callers.Update after 7 months:1.

I'm so pleased with this purchase!",4273,0 +4274,"Great Sound, but listeners complain + +Some positives - some important negatives:I purchased this because I wanted to be able to hear callers clearly and loudly. This headset is both crystal clear and the volume is excellent. On past cell phones, I max out the volume and it is still not enough. With this headset I have never maxed out the volume. I drive a loud two seat car, and even in that environment, I hear callers fine - with room the increase the volume is required (which I have not required).The unit fits comfortably in and on my ear.Negatives:EVERY caller complains about background noise - and I do not mean car/road noise. I can be sitting still at my desk and if I move around paper - people wonder what I am doing as the background noise it picks up is very annoying to them. As far as actually using in the car - any car - I can not. While I hear people well, they all get frustrated and say it is too hard to talk with me while driving due to background noise.The unit fits comfy - but it is a pain to put on. Definitely requires two hands - and if you twist the piece that goes over your ear the wrong way - you have to look at it to correct it which is not great for a hands free item (or fiddle with it a few times, which causes your call to go to voice mail or your caller to wait.... wait...).Don't bother using the button to connect/disconnect - the time required to press it is long. And if you hold it too long - you disconnect the bluetooth connection.I would give this unit 5 stars for listening, 1 star for speaking capability, 2.5 stars for ease of use.

It almost seems as though it contextually corrects because it is a generation better in turning a typo into the right word. As well, it provides auditory feedback when typing that also lets you know when a word is replaced, by making a different sound, thus you know you may need to look/check.The bad:No copy & paste or multitasking yet. For some, a deal breaker, for me, I rarely use either.App store is still growing and lack lustre compared to the more mature iPhone and Android storesThe phone itself is a bit thicker than I'd like... for the speakers making it that way, it sounds good, but I don't know if the extra thickness is worth it.Some apps, like Facebook, seem a little laggy to load. It's not a deal breaker and I'm sure this will be tweaked as updates occur.By no means is this a ""dumb phone"" but I really do think it is simpler to operate than iPhone, and definitely simpler than Android. As an IT person, I still like Android for its complexity and iPhone for it's speed, but this is a really nice OS. Definitely give it a look if you haven't.I rate this a 4 star instead of 5 for only two reasons: The thickness of the phone and still needing more time to more fully flesh out the app store options. I realize I could have purchased a thinner phone, but as a design choice I think it should be thinner even with the slider for speakers.Very pleasantly surprised by Windows Phone 7 and this phone. Meets the normal high build quality expected/experienced from everything HTC.",4280,0 +4281,"So far, very happy + +Received the case yesterday, and so far I'm quite pleased. It comfortably holds 2 cards and some dollar bills in addition to my phone. I tested it with up to 4 cards, and while it's a bit of a squeeze, the magnet still closes and holds. The cards are held in place firmly, perhaps a bit too firmly, but at least I don't have to worry about them falling out. It is slightly awkward to work the touchscreen with the case folded back, but not nearly as bad as I feared. When speaking on the phone, I close the case, and it works great, as there is a hole for the audio in the front of the case, and the ambient-sound cancellation mic on the back (near the camera lens and flash) is unobstructed.UPDATE 04/29/13:I've been using this for about 2.5 months now, and am generally very happy with it. However, the corner of the case where the camera lens/flash is peeled away from the plastic phone holder when it got caught while shoving it into my pocket during a hike a couple of days ago. It wasn't bad, and nothing a little super glue couldn't fix.Also, I like to keep an extra (emergency) credit card behind the phone, inside the plastic holder. This works fine, except that the extra depth it creates for the camera/flash cutout causes flash photos to come out looking cloudy, as the flash partially reflects off the inside of the cutout.",4281,0 +4282,"Can't believe Otterbox manufactured something like this. + +I purchased my first-ever Otterbox (Defender Series for iPhone 4) in May of this year. Since, I've felt a sense of security with the brand that other manufacturers failed to provide. Naturally, with my upgrade to the Samsung Galaxy S3, I immediately purchased this Otterbox to protect my new phone from all of the unspeakable catastrophes that could (and probably would, seeing as it was made in China) occur.While I appreciate the fact that this specific Otterbox lacks the bulk that the Defender series carries (hence generous enough to rate it two stars), I'm not impressed. The inner layer of silicone that shields the side buttons renders it nearly impossible to press them down. Seriously. If I actually keep this phone and case until the termination date of my two-year contract, I don't doubt for a second that I'll have carpel tunnel.And the screen protector. Unlike the Defender series, which includes a built-in plastic protector for the screen, this particular model is included with an incredibly thin, detached ""protector"" and a few-step, image only direction pamphlet for installation. Honestly, Otterbox. I could decipher Ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics better than I can your directions. Needless to say, I screwed up while installing the screen protector, leaving me forced to trash it.If you're looking for fortified protection for your Samsung, I would never recommend this product. I could've purchased a $10 silicone skin from the Arabs at kiosks in the center of the mall and gotten better satisfaction out of it.UPDATE (11/1/12): I've owned this for nearly two months, and the side ""power"" button (made of the silicone) is already worn down from pressing it.

I've had the phone for about 3 weeks now and am loving it.

I switched from the 5800 Xpress Music and there is definitely a big difference but being that it is still a symbian system I haven't ran into anything that was too hard for me to figure out by myself, music sounds great and call quality is great as well. I added a 16gb memory card on top of what the phone comes with (16gb) so I'm more than happy with enough memory for whatever comes my way.

I like Jaybird's system of securing the earbuds in the ear better than just the hook provided by others, including Audiosynq.I also like that the JF4s use a micrUSB port for charging, rather than the proprietary port that Audiosync uses. With that said, if I did not happen to have the extra money to spend on myself at this time, I would have definitely kept the Audiosynq headset and been perfectly happy with it, but I am glad I can have the JF4s instead.",4290,0 +4291,"Two Dead Phones In A Row!! + +The first one I bought was "new" but upon receiving the item the Microphone didn't' work.

I found this deal, and I was very excited to get it for her. I've had great experiences with the Amazon Warehouse, I've bought numerous games on here.Anyways, I went with my great experiences and bought the phone. I give the phone to her on Christmas Day. The home button does not work. After the phone is on for a long amount of time, the screen turns yellow.The worst part about it is, I have always bragged on Amazon's Customer Service. They've always done me right. This time, they did not. They basically told me to take it to an Apple Store. I paid $250 for this phone. I paid $250, for a working, functional phone, that was almost ""Like New"". Amazon has lost a lot of credibility among the online community, with lackluster service and promotions. They've definitely lost another customer with me. All I want is the phone replaced with a working phone, that my girlfriend can use. Is that too much to ask? A simple replacement?To anyone reading this, if you are looking to buy a phone, do not do it from these people. Save your money, and just buy it off Craigslist. I would love for somebody from Amazon to contact me and make good on this deal. I have always respected and bragged about this company.

Defective POS is being returned for a refund.",4295,0 +4296,"Better than the original? + +I've owned both the Rumor and the Rumor2, and I'm torn between which I like better. The first big difference is the QWERTY pad - the original did not have a dedicated number line or a smiley button, both of which are nice. However, having spent almost a year with the Rumor, I'm having to re-learn where certain buttons are (namely the enter button, and that there's also a dedicated period button), but that's to be expected with any new phone.I do miss my camcorder on the original Rumor. Had I spent more time at the store (yes, Sprint Customer Service was driving me nuts and I just wanted to get out of there with my wallet intact), I would have noticed that it didn't have a camcorder, and might have gone with a different phone.However, that is more than made up for by the threaded text messaging (very nice when you're trying to recall a conversation, so you don't have to keep jumping between the inbox and sent box), as well as the onslaught of alarms. The original Rumor had 3 alarms plus a quick (1min, 10min, 30min, 1hr). The Rumor 2 has 5 alarms, plus a ""Walk the Dog"" alarm (as well as three different ringers revolving around walking your dog), and the quick alarm. Probably my favorite feature? Once again, the microSD capacity has been bumped up - this time to 16gigs!!! I'm still working to fill my 4gig that I had in the Rumor, but I suppose that once 16gig cards drop in price the way the 2s and 4s have, I'll find myself buying a bigger card. Beware, though, with a bigger card and more music, it takes longer and longer to load the music player.Speaking of which, the music player has some nice updates from the original Rumor as well. Again, as someone who's been through way too many phones (9 in the last 4 years, to be exact), I have had the Fusic with it's music player (by far my favorite), the Musiq with it's player (the Java based piece of junk, which was only good because I could put the player in the background and still use my phone 100% for other apps), the Rumor (very basic player, just with shuffle & repeat functions), and now this one. It's still closest to the original Rumor in that I can't create different playlists (at least, in the 24 hours of owning it, I haven't found a way to yet), but it does have the option of playing songs in a list or having it shown as a player with the song information and time remaining. Again, still pretty basic, but a ton better than the original Rumor.Overall, I'm just happy that I have a phone that isn't quirky (yet), one that has a killer QWERTY and text layout, and one that takes pretty decent pics for a 1.3 camera. Again, lots of alarm choices, the music player's decent, and not too much new to learn from the original Rumor.

Based on wirecutter.com's pick for best case for the new iPhone 5 to this point I did buy one, actually two, cases. The case fits very well and offers good protection for users that are not abusive to their phones. Others, and you know who you are, will need an Otter Box type case. As reported, the iPhone 5 has had some problems with being scratch prone so a film shield is provided for the back part of the phone as well as a normal screen protector. One reviewer reported that he scratched his phone using this case but I have removed it a few times without any problems. The case is very resistant to scratches and all buttons work well even though covered except the mute switch which is accessible though a small opening on the upper left side. There is a slight lip on the front so the screen should be protected if laIn face down. The wirecutter.com review can be googled for more detail. I currently have a black and a green/grey case but there are other colors some of which would be more suitable for the white iPhone at the switcheasy site. I hope that this has been helpful.",4299,0 +4300,"Big Sound for a Little Speaker + +In the box with the speaker are two cables, 3.5mm stereo audio line, mini USB cable, a lithium battery, and a very basic manual for those with good vision.I used the speaker with my laptop and with a Marquis computer pad, attached directly with both cables alternately, and via Bluetooth.The speaker also connected easily to our LG Venice phone.For anyone with modest expectations, this speaker should be satisfactory. The volume is more than enough for me and the sound quality is certainly satisfactory. In fact the sound coming from this Subway sub shaped speaker is much better than the sound from the speakers on my laptop, pad, or cell phone. Don't expect the fullness of sound you'd get from a large boombox, and you'll be satisfied with the Easy Acc speaker.While I was testing this EasyAcc speaker, I decided to compare it to a much smaller, more expensive FIGO speaker with which I've been happy. Of the two little speakers, I'd say this EasyAcc is marginally better is sound quality and its sound separation adds to the listening enjoyment of the listener.The speaker has a built in FM radio also. It scans for local stations, and then the user can press a little button to move from station to station. I'll probably rarely if ever use the radio function since there is no dial or digital read out to see what station is playing.Bottom line - If you want a small speaker with the footprint of a digital alarm clock, this handy speaker is worth your consideration.",4300,0 +4301,"A Must Have For Truckers + +",4301,0 +4302,"great case but can't hear people talking to well + +it is a great case, but it is a little hard to hear people when they are talking. overall I am pretty satisfied with it.",4302,0 +4303,"Upgraded from a LG 840g and I'm not looking back. + +My prior phone was the LG 840g. Although the LG served its purpose providing a mp3 player, a better GUI experience, easier texting and a touch screen in comparison to my Motorola flip phone that preceded it, I was growing a bit weary of the limited software available and was anxiously waiting for tracfone to offer an android phone. I also admit I have been obsessed with the sony smartwatch and its not compatible with any Java tracfone. Anyhow, after 4 days I can say I am more than satisfied and, no, it has nothing to do with the watch. I didn't buy it yet. The most difficult issue I had was transferring my contacts from my old phone. Eventually I just transferred them phone to phone using bluetooth which was super easy after I figured it out. I went to the tracfone website to complete the transfer myself and it was easy. The transfer itself took about an half hour after I completed everything.Things I like:1) Multitasking - you can browse the web, play a game or access an application while you're on a call. Smart phone users might read this and say ""welcome to 2011"". However for tracfone users transitioning to android, its a mind blower.2) Text messaging arrangement - No more going back and forth from your outbox to inbox just to see a full conversation. It's rite there on one screen. Your texts are on the right. The recipients response is on the left.3) Triple Minutes - nothing new to LG 800 and LG 840g users BUT you get triple minutes for calls, text and web each. In other words 20 min are actually 180 min divided 3 ways. Have fun with it while you can. Someone is going to realize they made a mistake and change it. Just a Note; my LG 840 automatically utilized wifi when I was in range for the web. This phone will use your minutes if you don't turn off Mobile data under settings -----> data usage. Thanks to C. Overhulser for pointing this out.4) Phone looks good and feels solid. Looks much better in person if that matters to you.5) No issues connecting to Wifi.6) Google Play - the software available on android is more than enough for anyone. I downloaded a free call and text app that I can use to make calls over wifi instead of using the minutes I paid for. That means I can do what all my friends love me for, which is listen to their relationship issues. Lucky me . . . I think.7) Bigger screen - not in comparison to the current phones on the market but enough over most tracfones.Things that I'm so so on:1) The learning curve if you are transitioning to Android, could be a bit challenging. I went through hours trying to figure out how to transfer my contacts. At first, when I tried to connect the phones via bluetooth it didn't pick up. Under Your centura bluetooth menu select ""only visible to paired devices"". That switches it to pick up devices that are not paired. For some reason none of the tutorials I found on the web mentions transferring contacts phone to phone via bluetooth. Save yourself the trouble and pair the phones.2) I don't like the tracfone app. Unlike the LG, its not real-time. You basically refresh the app through the web. No web, no update. It was automatic on the LG. No internet needed. The widget is also huge, but considering the info it provides I understand the size.3) My 3g signal has only reached 2 bars, but honestly, I'm not even sure what that means and if it relates to me specifically.4) The psychological transition - how do I explain this? Tracfone users like myself see a phone for what it is - a phone. The extra bells and whistles are a convenience, not a necessity. The smarter the phone the more personal it tends to be. For example, I synch'd this phone to my email which automatically makes this phone almost as important as my wallet. For me, its a bit uncomfortable. Of course you don't have to synch your email or any of your accounts but the whole idea behind upgrading to an android is to take advantage of what a smart phone has to offer. That can be a good thing and a bad thing. It's something ""dumb phone"" users like myself never had to worry about. It basically means your phone may contain sensitive information which makes it more than just a tool to make calls. In other words password protect it.If you're on the fence I say give it a try. Overall, I'm happy with this phone. The price was not even a question for me. It's worth it. I took advantage of a deal on ebay that offered 200 minutes which broke down to 600 minutes each. It takes what the LG 840g does to a smarter level. I would also urge anyone looking over reviews or writing reviews to take a second to distinguish if the faults are a software or a phone issue. For example, although it was resolved, there was talk there was no way to view your remaining minutes. I can't hold samsung responsible. That is an android/tracfone issue. If you are new to android and your issue is software related, it will be an issue regardless of the phone you buy if its on android.",4303,0 +4304,"Fantastic purchase + +I have been a blackberry user since 2003 and this newest addition is a great upgrade to the lineup. Good size and feel. The screen is the most beautiful I have ever seen. Absolutely superb screen resolution and brightness. The Edge downloads are really fast and the email functionality is the gold standard which is what really seperates Blackberries from everyone else. They could not have made the email set-up any easier. Just enter your email address and password. That's it, the blackberry does the rest. I love how they also have set-up an individual folder for each email account besides the general message folder.People are amazed when I tell them how little I paid for it through Amazon. I ordered it with standard shipping on a Tuesday evening and had it in my hands fully operational on Friday. It took less than an hour for the battery to fully charge out of the box.This is my first time with T-Mobile but my experience has been stellar. They answer my emails promptly and when I asked a question that was beyond their capability they promptly transferred me to RIM's Blackberry support which has always been great. The tips they have given me over the phone for shortcuts and navigation tricks were awesome. This phone should satisfy any road warrior. I have read posts by others complaining about various functionality issues but these are people who either a) don't own one, b) never read the manual, or c) never called tech support to get an answer. For the record, you can delete messages en massse, type phone numbers memonically i.e. 1-800-you-idiot, view your calendar and address book while on the phone, etc..As a phone, the reception is good and T-Mobile has great coverage. I couldn't imagine being on a call and not being able to look in my calendar or email inbox. The conference call feature works like a charm and is a great feature when you are on the go. Being able to dial a number someone sent me in a text message or email directly without having to exit message/email is fantastic.The addition of the exterior mute and extra function buttons are a welcome upgrade. What more can I can write about this great phone? It is hands down, the best smartphone on the market.",4304,0 +4305,"You know why you're here! + +If you are reading this, you probably know at least from word of mouth that this is THE BEST PHONE available, so I won't work you up in this direction. Instead, my experience with it:I got the Chilean version, but it is pretty much of no consequence: Android can be displayed in many different languages, so don't sweat it. Actually, I believe the phone started up in English (don't remember right now as it has been like 6 weeks now).Out of the box is (at least mine), Android 2.3.3, UHKE2 kernel (the KE2 part is the more important part). This version is flawed! In my case, the com.android.google.phone (or something along those lines) process would periodically crash! Sometimes as fast as 1 or 2 minutes from the last crash. Some days, on the other hand, would crash only once or twice. The good news: You can download the Kies software for PC from Samsung and plug in your phone to the PC. It will immediately tell you there's an upgrade. At the time of this writing, the most recent kernel is UHKG7, which is Android 2.3.4. This kernel fixed the phone process issue. It also fixes the fact that you must say ""Hi Galaxy"" instead of ""Hola Galaxy"" when you configure voice command in Spanish.And speaking about voice command: It works beautifully! I use it in Spanish and pretty much understands everything except one thing (and this problem is present in KE2 and KG7): It doesn't understand ""enviar"" (translation: send) when you are dictating a text message. You are therefore forced to click the Send button to complete the text message operation. And yes, a data connection is needed for this to work, but then again, which one doesn't? And this is more a question than a rhetorical question because I don't have much experience with voice command applications.Continuing with voice recognition, the KE2 kernel comes with Google Search for your phone, but it doesn't come with Voice Search installed. If you're in the USA, this probably isn't a problem, as Google Search will direct you to the Voice Search page inside the Android Market for you to install when you hit the microphone button. BUT, if you are outside the USA, chances are you won't find Voice Search in the Android Market. Again, the good news is that the KG7 kernel provides Voice Search, so one more bug down.People are very interested in battery life: It sucks! But then again, what smartphone with these specifications doesn't? My data plan is unlimited data, but restricted bandwidth, so I run Twitter, Hotmail, GMail, MSN Messenger, Google Talk, Office Communicator sometimes, 2 news tickers, you name it! Ah, the Shazam widget and a few others that periodically connect to the Internet. I get between 8 and 12 hours of battery life. Coming from a Motorola phone that could work with one charge every other night (sometimes more), this is a big change. It's like going back 10 years to the time where it was common to have a desktop battery charger and 2 or 3 spare batteries. Not nice at all. The good thing is that you can have your phone charged via a PC's USB port. So that buys you some time.Probably one very big thing if you're not into custom ROM's and such: Even though kernel KG7 is Android v2.3.4, Google Talk does NOT offer video chat. Could it be my region?? Maybe. I haven't investigated about this. What I can tell you: I got KG7 via Samsung Kies and my Google Talk doesn't have video chat. Why did I introduce this talking about custom ROM's? Well, chances are that you can probably find out there a v2.3.4 kernel that does offer video chat via Google Talk.Regarding custom ROM's: I haven't tried any. The procedure to root this device is pretty simple. You just need the Odin software and a rooted kernel. You can have your phone rooted in 4 minutes. I haven't done it! Feel free to comment if you have and share your experience.Finally, Samsung TouchWiz 4.0: I love it! But then again, my opinion is probably a naive one because I have never used stock Android in the past. In fact, this is my very first Android device. So I don't really have a comparison point. Still, I have compared a bit my phone to an HTC Aria running Cyanogen MOD and I prefer my user interface.

It's great looking and it has great feel in my hands. Not heavy at all. It makes iPhone looks like a dull and dark old box. Windows 8 is great and very easy to transition into. It might not have all the apps but it has over 90% of the best apps. Over the past week, I've been asked by people to let them play with it all the time. It definetly grabbed people's attention. Welcome back Nokia! The best camera and the best map from Nokia.",4307,0 +4308,"Not bad -- + +I received this as a gift. In my earlier version of this, I mistakenly thought that the micro USB cables were useless. The company explained to me that they ARE compatible, with a micro USB plug fitting into ONE SIDE of the large USB 3 plug. The USB 3is okay, worth about $4 on Amazon. The leather case is ""okay"" -- slightly lesser quality than the CellTo case available on Amazon for $7, plus $3 for shipping but it works okay and will protect the phone somewhat.The stylus is a regular, big fat stylus as you would use on an iPad. It doesn't fit in the Note 3. In all ""fairness"", it does show the ""fat"" stylus in the picture, but for someone buying a surprise gift for someone else...they might not realize that this is a cheap $3 stylus that has to be carried separately, although I don't know why anyone would carry it at all.I haven't tested the plugs or earphones or screen protector. There's the convenience of having it all in one package, but $30 seems a little expensive. If the price were less, I'd probably rate it 4 stars. Nevertheless, if you want to get it all together, the case and cables aren't bad and the service from the company is exceptional. The way that they very quickly answered my questions and solved my problem was admirable.Further revision: one of the plugs that I thought was incompatible is actually very useful. It's a micro-sd on one end that fits into one side of the USB 3 port and has a female USB plug on the other, allowing me to easily plus a regular USB drive into the Note 3 and (with ES File Explorer), immediately see the files on my USB ""thumb drive"" -- including easily reading a MS Word Doc that I had typed some months ago. Overall these various plugs do seem to be more useful than I thought. I still think that the $29.99 is ""a little"" steep, but if someone has a need for all these things it's pretty useful. So I bumped it up to 4 stars, though I'd really rather give it only about about 3.693574913 stars. In other words, DON'T take ""star"" ratings too seriously.

Techies like myself find ways around the trash that is dumped on these bloated phones. I feel sorry for the Droid 4 and other phones. They are bogged down with bloatware and other WORTHLESS APPS.Just so everyone here understands, rooting your phone so you can customize it, get better resolution, and watch your phone soar, is what these phones were meant for.I understand your frustrations, and I would to if I didn't know how to get better access to the phone's innards.I have already seen Ice Cream Sandwich on my friend's phone, and it's so beautiful.These phones have dual core 1.2ghz processors, and have so much potential. I am also sorry that most of these phones will never breathe this freedom, and that most of you that visit these forums will never get to experience your phone unhinged.Appreciate the hardware, the potential, and get connected with some android development communities.... or buy an iPhone.-C",4319,0 +4320,"nice phone case no regrets + +this is a great phone case it fits perfectly on the phone and feels very solid in the hand..I definitely recommend.",4320,0 +4321,"Great design, great quality, great buy! + +First off, let me say that my review on this product doesn't take into account any comparison to other Bluetooth sets. I bought this headset because of the new law in California coming up where it becomes illegal to talk on the phone while driving without a hands free device. It is the first Bluetooth headset I have owned and I'll just give you my opinion from my experience thus far. I also want to let you know that I am using this with an iPhone. So here we go!First things first: the design. When i first started in looking at headsets I was disappointed at how ugly and bulky the majority of Bluetooth headsets were. Even looking at the old jawbone, I don't know how people use them without dying of embarrassment . The Jawbone 2 is by far the nicest looking headset on the market today and was well worth the extra money for its light and compact form factor. The outside portion has a chic, designer styling with a great looking, low profile ear-loop wrapped in leather. If you look back at the old ear-loop design you can see how much of an improvement this is. Even looking at the Jawbone 2 picture here on Amazon doesn't do it justice. I actually don't mind wearing it away from the home or car. There is a 2 color led light (red & white) hidden on the ridge of one of the little diamonds on the face and all of the buttons are hidden underneath the casing. Someone noted that they didn't like the hidden buttons because when they placed it in their ear the headset turns off. I have never had this problem once. It takes all of a second to put the headset in my ear - to turn the headset off you have to hold the button down for a couple of seconds. I usually place it in my ear from the sides anyways and maybe push inwards only for second to ensure a snug fit. The button commands were very easy to learn. Overall this is the best looking headset around.Next up, looking at the fit: A lot of people seem to have problems with getting the headset to fit correctly. Maybe it's just a case by case basis where problems occur, because after choosing the correct earpiece, not only does the earpiece stay firmly in place, but I don't even need to use the ear-loop! I was looking into the whole deal where people are apparently using Jabra ear gels with their sets, but I don't feel like its necessary. The fit is so snug that I can shake my head from side to side vigorously and it doesn't move at all. And again, that's without the ear-loop! It doesn't hurt or anything but I don't know if I would forget that it was in my ear. The longest conversation that I have had on it was 90 minutes and comfort wasn't really an issue. Sometimes I put the ear-loop on if I'm walking for extended periods of time just as a safety precaution. I spent too much to risk letting it drop. The ear loop makes things a little less comfortable, but mainly because I'm in between the two sizes they give you. Why do they give you a medium size and an XL size but nothing in between? No idea, but I don't use it often enough to need to worry about it. Fit is important to keep the vibration sensor pressed against your cheeck. If you don't keep the sensor against your face the device won't work properly. Sorry to the people with long side burns or beards, this product probably won't work for you. Because everyone has different sized ears, I would recommend buying this product from a place like Best Buy so you can return it, no questions asked, if it doesnt fit properly. Overall I would give the comfort a 7/10.Now the sound quality. I actually just took a 30 min break from writing this review to make a call and make sure I write an accurate review. I checked with the other person multiple times through out the conversation if they were hearing me ok, they said ""perfectly clear"" each time. My volume was at a little less than half way which was more than enough to hear the other person perfectly clearl. No muffled sound, just crystal clear sound quality. Perhaps those people with problems have a defective unit. I've never had anyone complain, nor have I had any complaints, about the sound quality. One thing that I don't necessarily like is how you change the volume. To change the volume, you press the noise assassin button to cycle up through the different levels. Once it reaches max volume it goes back to the lowest setting. My friend told me that when I pressed it a few times, from his side it sounded like aliens were invading -- which is what it sounds like from my side too (think Space Invaders). The ringing sound and volume chime are pretty ugly sounding but aren't really anything to get upset about. It's just too bad you can't hear your cell phone's ringtone through the headset. One thing to note is that when you cycle through the volume levels, it's not making a change within the headset hardware, but actually changing to volume on the cell phone itself. I don't know if that's how all Bluetooth headsets are, but I just thought it was worth a mention. Because my phone has a volume rocker on the side, I just click that if I need to change the volume. It's usually set at the right volume anyways. One other minor thing is that the Noise Assassin seems to work from both sides. If the other person is in a noisy room, it will be really quiet when they aren't talking, but when they are talking you can hear some of the background noise on their end. It's hard to describe, but there's something about going from noise...to perfectly quiet... constantly...that got a little annoying over time. Quick fix, I just turned off the Noise Assassin by pressing the back of the headset for a couple of seconds (it's on by default). The Noise Assassin, by the way, makes it so quiet that if the person doesn't talk for a couple of seconds I'm tempted to say ""uhh...hello? Are you still there?"" It's dead quiet. As if they hung up the phone and you are no longer connected. I guess this could be considered good and bad in different ways, and Aliph probably designed the Jawbone that way, but again this can always be turned off.A few other things worth mentioning: The headset comes with small, medium, and large ear pieces and 2 sets of ear-loops (2 sizes, 2 plastic and 2 leather covered). Make sure you try them all out to get the best fit. For me, the medium earpiece was more comfortable, but large gave me a more snug fit (important for keeping the sensor on your check) and better sound. If I'm just sitting at a desk or driving, the medium ear piece works fine and I forget that its even there. Too much movement causes problems in quality from the other end though. People with problems might want to try going up an earpiece size. It also comes with a nice charger that has a plug with USB input, and a USB cable with a magnetic charging head. When you plug the headset in you lose the Bluetooth connection and the jawbone turns off. This means that when you receive a call you have to unplug the jawbone, hold the outside button for 2 seconds until it turns on and wait another second or two for the connection to be made. I've missed calls this way and usually just answer the phone and tell the person to hold on for a sec.The Bluetooth signal is pretty strong. Some people mentioned that they had problems with dropped Bluetooth signals, but I havent had one yet. I live in a studio apartment and usually just keep the phone docked, headset in my ear, and even walk around the studio while on a call without any signal loss.Price wasn't really an issue for me, but might be for others. Even with its high price, I feel like it was well worth it. Other than price, and a few other minor dislikes (nothing worth lowering score for), I'm very happy with this headset and would recommend it to anyone.NOTE: I check the posting here on Amazon.com from time to time and I noticed that the price has been fluctuating almost daily and well above MSRP. I bought mine from the Jawbone web site (Aliph.com) for $129.99. If you DO buy it online you might want to go there.",4321,0 +4322,"Some flaws, but good protection and nice look + +I went caseless when I first got my iPhone 4, which worked fine until one day, when I dropped the phone onto the asphalt while getting out of my car. Suffice it to say, the iPhone's glass CAN shatter if you drop it in just the right (wrong) way, and I now understand the value of having a case.This is the first case I've used in six years of owning iPods and iPhones, so I don't have a lot to compare it to, but overall I like it in spite of some flaws.Pros:+ Adds a little thickness to the phone, but not much; it still fits in my pocket snugly. Since I always carry my phone in my pocket, this was the main reason I chose this case over the Defender.+ Even though it hides the phone's snazzy metal edges, I still like the look of the phone in this case. It's fairly understated and doesn't immediately scream, ""HEY, I'M USING A CASE!""+ The hard plastic of the case seems quite sturdy and would likely help the phone survive another fall (not that I want to try it out).+ The plastic has a slightly rough texture, which provides a good grip and makes the phone much less likely to slip out of one's hands. This is probably my favorite feature of the case, as I find the glass surfaces of the iPhone pretty slippery.+ I haven't noticed any degradation in quality of photos (which I've noticed is a common complaint in iPhone 4 case reviews).+ The rubber inner casing covers the volume buttons and has flip-open covers for the headphone jack and dock port to prevent dust accumulation.Cons:- Yeah, leaving a hole in the back for the Apple logo is kind of silly. It looks kinda cool, I guess, but I get the feeling it will eventually lead to a scratched-up circle around the logo while the rest of the back remains pristine (unless I invest in a rear ""screen"" protector).- The case is a little tricky to get on perfectly. It usually takes me two or three tries to put it on without some part of the hard plastic jutting out slightly.- The headphone jack cover is a little wonky: it's kind of difficult to get open and sticks out from the hard plastic frame slightly. Also, I use a line-in cable to connect my iPhone to my car stereo, and since the plastic around the cable's connector is a little wide, I need to jam it into the case in order to get it to stay put. This might be more a failing of the cable manufacturer than Otterbox, though.- The case only comes with a single screen protector. I had never applied one before and totally screwed it up, rendering the screen protector dusty and useless. I bought some Powersupport screen protectors and they're great, but it would be nice of Otterbox to provide a spare (and maybe one for the back to protect that exposed logo).- I've noticed that the rubber inner case accumulates a lot of dust and other particles, especially around the edges of the touch screen. I worry that some of this stuff will eventually work its way into the inner lining and damage the phone; because of this, I take the phone out of the case once a week or so and clean it.Overall, even though it has some caveats, the case is attractive and I think it reduces my chances of dropping the phone again--and, even if I do, I think it would make another glass or phone replacement less likely.",4322,0 +4323,"Bought two one is down for the count afer 3 months + +ya they are kinda cool but not so cool when they stop working. I bought so i could plug in devices without turning on the lighs...that part was nice when it worked.

When the case arrived, it was a little bulkier than I expected, but it does have the stand so it needs a place to store it.I have yet to drop my phone, but the phone is extremely protected in the case. All the corners are covered and there is a rubber bumber around the front face to protect it as well. The stand works really well too, both vertically and horizontally.The only downside to this case, is that it is very difficult to remove. I generally like to switch my cases every week or so, and realized how hard it is to take this case off. I actually thought I was going to damage the phone trying to get the case off. It came with instructions on how to remove the case, but it was still very difficult.**Also, I have an FM transmitter in my car and I can't use it with this case on. The part of the case by the headphone port it too thick. (My Apple earbuds work fine though).Overall, this is a great case and really protects the phone. But if you like to change cases often or use aftermarket accessories, this may not work for you.",4324,0 +4325,"Staggeringly overpriced + +Nice enough case, but there are many others, equally well made, at a much lower price.

I use bluetooth headset and sometimes just put it on speakerphone to talk. It also has GPS Navigation. The iPad mini doesn't even have that. My cousin has the iPad and the only thing it has is maps. Where you have to swipe the screen several times as you're driving. Pretty much useless unless you have a passenger sitting next to you working the iPad.This tablet has it all. Thin, light and perfect size at 7.7. The texts are super crisp and easy to read. The colors are very vibrant, and the battery life using 3G is very good. However, battery when using WIFI is pretty bad. So just keep it on 3G.I am disappointed that Samsung has discontinued the 7.7 and instead released a stupid 8"" Galaxy Note. Yeah, that would show everyone that they're not copying Apple. No one is interested in a 8"" note. I hope it flops because Samsung has way too many tablets out. And instead of focusing on their flagship 7.7, they are ignoring it and leaving us in the dark.I would hope that Samsung would continue supporting and releasing newer versions of the 7.7. I would love LTE, the newer phoLED display, quadcore, and S-pen support. Maybe even offer a Windows 8 Version. I wouldn't mind paying $600+ for this. (Heck, that is what the 7.7 is still going for still).We are still waiting for Jellybean come to this device. This would make the tablet even better.I am not even interested in any other tablet devices out at the moment. This tablet is over a year old, and it's still the superior tablet.

For the first go around, I unplugged three wall wart chargers and plugged in the power cord. Using the original USB charging cords, I plugged in the following devices:▪Kindle Fire HD 8.9""▪Samsung Galaxy S III▪Kindle - 2nd GenerationThe most noticeable thing was that even with all three devices plugged in, there was no decrease in charging times, and if anything all of the units seemed to charge a bit faster than with the original chargers.The Charging Station also has a single ""smart charging port"" which is capable of automatically selecting the best charging method for the device attached. This is the top USB port nearest the power switch, and it's marked with an ""S"" in a tiny marking. It is said to potentially charge some devices a lot faster, but I have not tested it with each of the three noted above. The Samsung Galaxy S III smartphone did charge faster, so it does appear to be a valid feature.Bottom line is that thisPlugable USB 3-port Charging Stationhas proven to be an excellent and effective solution for charging multiple USB devices.

It can be hard to hear them at times but other than that an excellent case.",4360,0 +4361,"Very Useful, Well-made Accessory + +I ordered both the Opteka BP-SC4000 and the XTG Technology Solar Charger, just to compare the two. I was looking for a compact, lightweight, solar-rechargeable backup power supply for my iPod Touch, satelite GPS unit, and cell phone. Bottom line: Except for the User Guide, which is practically worthless, I found the Opteka unit to be superior in almost every way to the XTG model; here's why:1. The specs for the Lithium-polymer battery on the Opteka BP-SC4000 claim 4000mAh capacity -almost three times the capacity of the battery on the XTG.2. The maximum solar charge rate for the Opteka is spec'd at 250mA - more than twice the 120mA rate specified for the XTG. This should translate into significantly faster recharging of the Opteka's onboard battery for the same amount of draw-down. (Example: If your cell phone, during recharging, draws 1000ma, it will take about 4 hours of direct sun to replace the charge in the Opteka vs approx 8.5 hours for the XTG.)3. The Opteka BP-SC4000 comes with a complete assortment of adapters to accomodate just about any small, USB-rated, battery-powered device. The XTG came with only a USB-to-mini-USB cord.4. The workmanship on the XTG seems a bit shoddy, with noticeable gaps at the edges of the plastic sealant that coats the solar panel. The Opteka, by comparison, appears sturdy and well made.5. The Opteka weighs about 7oz compared to 5oz for the smaller XTG (significant, perhaps, only to ounce-parsing backpackers like me). But those two extra ounces appear to translate into significantly better performance that is well worth the weight.6. It took a little over an hour for the fully-charged Opteka to completely charge my iPod Touch. Once the iPod was fully charged, the Opteka showed about half of its capacity remaining - enough to charge another device. (I was unable to test the XTG's battery capacity in this way since I didn't have the proper adapter, but I suspect, given it's smaller specified capacity, that the XTG would barely have enough juice to fully charge even one device.)7. The Opteka has a conspicuous and intuitive LED display on the front that tells when it's charging, when it's discharging (i.e. charging an external device), and, at any given moment, how much charge remains in the onboard battery. (When charging an external device, you do have to remember to hold down the button for 3 seconds to begin the process. Also, to check the state of the battery when the unit is idle, press the same button briefly.) The XTG has a display that performs basically the same function, but is on the back of the unit and therefore not in view when the unit is ""sunning"".8. At $25.07 through Amazon, the Opteka BP-SC4000 is almost $3 cheaper than the XTG - a clear tie-breaker.",4361,0 +4362,"Decent phone, but that mp3 player, oy... + +As you'll gather from the other reviews here, if you're looking at this not as a smart phone, but rather as a ""not so stupid"" phone--particularly if this is the first qwerty-keyboard phone you've bought, as it was for me--then it's a very good deal. Yes, the keyboard is a bit cramped, but it's perfectly serviceable for texting and simple emailing. And yes, the internet access, such as it is, will be slow and frustrating compared to your friends with their slick 3G or 4G service. But it works in a pinch, and given that you can get this on a phone plan that runs only 15 bucks per month, who's complaining?The 320x240 video is ok; the 2 meg photos are unexpectedly decent, and the USB connection to PC is simple to accomplish.Here's where I'm a bit disappointed. I was hoping to retire my workhorse MP3 player with this one. If all you want to do with this phone is play a longish podcast--say, if all you want to do is listen to Car Talk on your way to work--no problem.But if you want to play an actual album, no dice. There is no way to play a set list of songs, one after another, without actually selecting the next tune in some way (either by clicking the right-arrow before one song completely ends to go to the next one, or by laboriously opening the menu and selecting the next song.) I thought for sure I was missing some feature, but I'm not--that's how this thing works, which is crazy.(I would imagine some Java app exists to make mp3 management easier but I've not yet found one for this phone.)",4362,0 +4363,"Great little add-on for Sony Ericsson phones + +Although you will need to provide your own power and usb cable, this is still a great accessory.

Also, when power is connected to the base, a bright green light stays on making it easier to see in the dark - and it just looks cool, too!

I have written them, several of them, I just don't do it often. When I saw the RAZR only had 2 reviews, I decided to show a little love!So I have had smart phones FOR-EVER... Starting with a Palm Treo 600 back in 2003-2004, maybe? After almost 10 years, I can't imagine going back to a regular phone. And I've had a physical keyboard all this time. I have nails, and if you type with your nails, a capacitative screen isn't going to do you much good!When Palm stopped making the Treos (they hadn't come out with the Pre or the Pixi yet) I clung to my 700, desperately hoping they would release something. Finally the phone was so old and ticky I had to give up and I switched to a Blackberry, which I loved almost immediately. Just a few months afterwards, Motorola released the original DROID. I was salivating, and kicking myself for not waiting just a bit longer!As soon as a year was up and I was eligible for an early upgrade, I snatched up the current DROID 2. I didn't love it right away... Took me about a week. I considered sending it back. But after a week, I was hooked. This thing was amazing! I already could feel myself choosing the phone over my laptop! Then, like an idiot, I dropped it in a friend's driveway and cracked the screen. Verizon's insurance (which I had) said that they could replace it, but they no longer carried the D2, and they offered me an upgrade to the DROID 2 GLOBAL. Cool...NOT COOL! I HATED that phone! I had Asurion replace it TWICE in the year I had it, the stupid things were so sensitive and ticky. Everyone who knew me knew that you would generally hear a colorful line of expletives from me several times a day because of this stupid phone, taking up to 10 minutes sometimes just to make a call! It got to the point I was afraid to even attempt to go to the Internet, let alone do anything while there. I counted the minutes until I was eligible for my next upgrade.And I knew I would probably get another Motorola Droid phone. I had such a great experience with my short-lived D2, they couldn't ALL be like the D2G! But here was the problem: I still wanted a physical keyboard. The DROID 3 had one, but I heard rumors that the D4 was on the horizon. I figured it best to wait for that if it was so close. Rumor after rumor about the release date of the D4 came out, but no confirmation.Finally, this past Christmas after the infernal D2 looked like it was going to crash AGAIN, causing me to have to reload everything AGAIN (it had done this several times, so I had gotten quite adept at keeping the important things backed up), I declared I couldn't wait another day or I'd have to be committed to an insane asylum, and headed for the nearest Verizon store.I wrote all of this because I wanted to illustrate that I am no smartphone newbie. Long-term veteran here!I have NOT been disappointed. The keyboard worried me. But the screen on this phone is much larger than the D2G, and there is enough room for the pads of my fingers to touch down, despite my nails. Also, a little app you can get called SwiftKey X has AMAZING predictability features while typing, so I'm not typing as much. I may have gotten over-zealous once or twice downloading something that caused the phone to get caught in a ""reboot loop"" and had to do the factory reset on it, but in no way do I believe that it was the fault of the phone. I knew the RAZR MAXX was just on the horizon when I purchased this phone, but I was so frustrated with the D2G that I couldn't wait even another week. From what I've read about the MAXX, the benefits aren't that drastic! It DOES come with ICS already installed, and the rumors about when the RAZR will get the update are as cagey as the release of the D4 was. The battery apparently lasts much longer, but this battery is quite fine for me. I believe the ""on board"" storage is bigger with the MAXX, but with SC cards that can go as high as 64GB, what does that matter?The only reason I gave it four stars is basically because I have managed to trip it up a couple of times. If the phone has an app or file on it that's causing problems, there really ought to be some sort of diagnostics you can access to see what the offender is, and remove it! Barring that, it ought to be able to run and eliminate those problems itself. But it doesn't.After coming off of that horrid D2G, the RAZR is an absolute DREAM on a rainbow colored cloud!",4368,0 +4369,"liked + +it is good enough for the price not for a person who does everything on their phone but good enough for you basic functions",4369,0 +4370,"Loving it...so far + +Amazon: You just cannot find a better price/rebate anywhere else (If you did, I don't want to know)T-mobile: Signal strength improved a lot since I last used them (~5yrs ago).

I use it as ""a phone"" for the most part, but the camera and games are decent. Display has good resolution, but the camera doesn't (that's why the pre-loaded wall paper shows much better detail than pictures you take with the phone). Since it doesn't have Bluetooth or IR, you may want to consider the V600 if you plan on exchanging a lot of pictures and tones with other device. Or you can send it through you phone but the charge can add up fast. Some other reviewer mentioned using a USB connection cable, I like that idea.

Screen protectors are a must for touch screen devices, and also some type of bumper case (or like what i prefer for my field use an armor box like the otter type or something similar). Having stated that, let me give you some things to look for. not all screen protectors are created equal, some require a wet application and are difficult and take time to set and dry before you use them, inevitably you will trap air bubbles or lint in it. With the Halo screen protector you dont have to deal with that. Also, there is a level of hardness to this film that gives the glass some protection over other types of screen protectors on the market. Now for some advice in applying this. If you have just purchased your phone their will be a screen protector on it already, its just a soft plastic wrap type, non effective for almost anything. Leave this on until you get your halo screen film, then when it arrives you need to get a wet cloth and gently wipe off the edge where the existing film meets the glass to remove any dirt or lint that is on the edges. next you will remove the existing film off of the handset and carefully prevent anything from touching the glass including your fingerprints. Now as you pick up the Halo screen film start at the top,blowing the lint off of the surface of your handset, removing the step one tab, and do not start at the bottom if you are using this for the LG Nexus, the camera outlay holes are on the top and this is the most important thing to match up first. Then carefully judge the edge distance to make it equal on both sides as you lay it down top to bottom. then you will remove the 2nd tab, this may lift the film off of the screen but dont wory about it to much just press the film down behind it as you go keeping it in line, the film will adhear like it was wet but it isnt. There shouldnt be any bubbles in it, maybe on the edge a bit but dont fret about it it will eventually settle in and you can work it out with a smooth card or something similar. The heat of the screen usage will eventually help it adhear more each day.

I will tell you though the there are a few things you need to pay attention to **BEFORE** you install the case.1) MAKE SURE all of your fingerprint coding is done PRIOR to installation of the case2) DO NOT SKIP THE WATER TEST !!!!!! There is a membrane barrier over the touch ID button and if it is compromised in ANY way , you need to know before installation3) After you do the water test, and install the case on your phone be ***VERY, VERY CAREFULL*** when removing the touch sensor overlay. Make sure you push the membrane over the touch button (you will see what I am talking about when you get the case). After you smooth it out on the button, DO NOT pull accessively on it, but remove it slowly and smoothly or you will stretch out the membrane film. I had 2 of these and bought one for my buddy , he installed his a little impatiently and pulled it off too quick and the membrane pulled up along with the adhesive and would not re-seat properly........ lesson learned!As for the case itself, I LOVE IT!! It works perfectly and is very consistent . You have to know that you should not use it gently (meaning do not just rest your finger for the touch ID lightly as this may not allow the scan), you can put normal pressur on it and you should. Everything else about this case work just as any other Lifeproof case.

The color of the cover shows HORRIBLY in any pictures you take indoors. I purchased a yellow cover, and the pictures I took indoors had a horrible yellow haze to them. However, there is a easy solution, just use a sharpie to blacken the area around the camera lens.

(UPDATED) + +Looks nice and appears to be well made, easy to connect, and the sound is passable, though lacking in highs in particular, good mid and some base. Not all that great as a speakerphone with an iPhone, but good for watching movies and shows, listening to radio.I got it for my mom so she would have a speaker for her iPad, unfortunately after two weeks of very light use the battery began failing to take a charge. Either the circuitry is bad or the battery itself had gone bad. Now I understand why it was on sale for $40, you get what you pay for. Sent it back.(((UPDATE December 7, 2013))) So after writing this review and sending the speaker back for a refund, I got a call from Craig Fitzhugh, in Palo Alto California, who claim to be the president and CEO of this company, which I found difficult to believe, though I don't know anything about Cambridge SoundWorks.Anyway Mr. Fitzhugh said that he was touched by my comment, and was calling me in an attempt to rectify my dissatisfaction. He offered me the chance to repurchase the product, with a 'friends and family' discount 30%, which would knock off about $12, meaning it would cost about $27. This product comes with a 30 day warranty. So I put this proposal to my mother, since it was her speaker, and she was not interested, and frankly neither was I.I'm old enough to remember when you could buy a speaker, and it lasted for 30 years, and that was from RadioShack, their own line of speakers, back in the day. More and more it seems such consumer goods have failure designed into them, disposable crap meant to fail after 12 or 18 months so they can get you to purchase a new one. A $40 product that has to be replaced every year for 30 years ends up costing you $1200. Those who run that kind of business see customers as nothing more than sheep to be sheared at every opportunity.I put forward a counter offer to Mr. Fitzhugh, send me a complementary unit and if it's still working after a year, and if I'm satisfied, I'll pay for it and amend my comment to reflect this. He was not interested in my counterproposal, nor in offering me anything other than the $12 off on a repurchase. No thanks.My current policy after years of putting up with this crap is, burn me once, and I go out of my way to expose your company, that's the only way corporations will begin adhering to ethical business practices once again in today's entirely unethical corporate culture, the only thing they understand is when you significantly impact their bottom line.I don't know how large this company is, I inquired of Mr. Fitzhugh, but he was reluctant to reveal its size, saying that that information was confidential. I might have a different attitude if I was dealing with a small company, but Mr. Fitzhugh gave me the impression that Cambridge SoundWorks is large. So in the interest of customer goodwill he could've easily have given me a speaker, or even a dozen speakers to give out to my friends and family. Sadly in today's consumer market customers are considered a disposable resource, much like employees. So these take it or leave it offers are all too common, coming from companies who have no respect for their customers whatsoever. The only way the people who run these companies will get the message is when we start walking away and refusing to do business with them ever again, as well as exposing their shoddy products and business ethics to all the world. And that is now my policy with regard to Cambridge SoundWorks.",4416,0 +4417,"""Move over Samsung"" I don't think so! + +This phone has many issues that a phone of this price simply should not have. First and foremost, connectivity is poor. In multiple side-by-side comparisons the HTC one shows 1 to 2 bars less that the Samsung SII on both cell and wi-fi reception.While in an area with a mere 2 bars wi-fi reception, the HTC one autonomously decides to download a 50MB update file. This prevented me from accessing FaceBook which was my only way of communicating since the HTC one autonomously blocked wi-fi calling because I did not program in my 911 address on the T-Mobile website (REQUIRE a 911 address for a MOBILE phone? SERIOUSLY?) I would have sent an e-mail, but since my SMTP server is completely different from my POP server, the HTC one would not allow me to program an outgoing mail server.Keyboard sensitivity is likewise not adjustable nor are the key images true to the touch points on the screen which results in severe typing errors. The keyboard can be calibrated which helps syntax and spelling somewhat, but calibration can only be done in the vertical mode.The screen sensitively is so high that I inadvertently allowed the phone to install the aforementioned 50MB update file upon my landing at my home airport. This update process rendered my phone to an expensive paperweight for 20 minutes and prevented me from phoning for my ride home.Upon returning the device, I realized that I have never seen the battery and asked the rep what happens when the battery fails. He smiled with a sarcastic smirk and said ""It's not supposed to fail, but when it does, you will have to buy a new phone."" Then he handed me my beloved Samsung SIII in exchange.",4417,1 +4418,"Not working after a month in use!!!!Would not recommend.

The Armband has a nice range of adjustment for those with smaller arms to those with pretty large arms. It should easily accommodate everyone fairly easily. It works as advertised, and I never need to worry about my phone slipping out of the case as I'm riding along a desert, or mountain trail. It provides adequate protection from the elements, but it's definitely not waterproof by any means. All in all a good armband for the price.The downside to this armband (and every other one like it) is the clear plastic protective cover. It's a forgiving material and will take loads of abuse, but if you have Armor Suit, Ghost Armor, or any other kind of protective covering on your phone, the plastic shield will stick to it like glue and peel off your installed screen protector when you attempt to remove your phone from the case. Another drawback (again this is the same for all of these types of cases) the hole in the case for your headphone port on your phone is just a little bit off, but this doesn't affect the functionality of the device. Just wiggle it around and there you go.The skinny: I really like this case, it's by far the best one I've ever purchased, it's durable and does what I expect it to do. However, if you have any kind of protective shield on your iPhone's screen, remove it or this product will remove it for you after your first workout.",4419,0 +4420,"Experienced Bluetooth User + +Everyone should own this bluetooth! I worked at a cellphone store for about three years, and I've probably used over 45 different bluetooths (Motorolla, Plantronics, Bose (too expensive), Jabra, Sony, etc). This Bluetooth is the best Bluetooth I've owned. It has an awesome stand-bye time. 11 hours of talk time, which is great (nobody spends more then 11 hours on their phone a day). Charge the bluetooth at night when you charge your phone, and you should never run out of battery. Although there are many pro's to this Bluetooth every item has a Con. I'll list them:Pro's-Long talk time-Long Standbye Time-You can listen to music (Many bluetooth's don't offer that)-Clear sound, and very crisp-Very loud, shouldn't have a problem hearing the other person-Very responsive, the other person can hear you very well-Look very professional, I've gotten lots of compliments wearing this bluetooth (Looks great on Men and Women)-Charges very fast (about 1 hour for a full charge, if charged from empty)-Talks to you, let's you know when the battery is low, if the bluetooth is connected, and when it is shutting off, or disconnecting.-Very comfortable, I've gotten a lot of earaches with previous bluetooths, this one is a perfect fit. I forget I have it on sometimes-Fits both ears-Inexpensive, cost 30 bucks, but built very well. Great qualityCons--When the volume is all the way up, it has a static noise. (very minimal, but can bother some people)-Charging port is on top of the Bluetooth, sometimes the clip can get in the way when you are trying to charge it. No big deal, but charging port should of been on the bottom.Overall, this bluetooth deserves a five star rating. The pro's outweigh the cons, and the cons are very small issues.

They basically told me that the phone did NOT support 8gb (though everywhere else says it does), only 2gb. I emailed them back twice after that for clarification and confirmation - and they were adamant about the phone only supporting 2gb - SO I WAS PISSED. Turns out they were WRONG. The phone works fine with a sandisk 8gb microSDHC card.Secondly, the phone does NOT come with the headphone adapter, as stated in the ad - so I had to purchase one separately for about $10ish.Finally, though this may not be important to most people - this phone is NOT supported by Motorola's MPT (Mobile Phone Tools) software. I've had this software now for a few years - it allows you to connect to you computer and organize contacts, music, graphics, ringtones, etc. Anyway, it's helped me back-up my info and transfer it when I get new phones. Doesn't work with this phone. Oh well.Though this phone is supposedly a big improvement over the original razr v3, I feel like the interface is clunky and stupid. Maybe I'll get used to it in time.Overall, I've been disappointed, but I suppose it's an ok phone, just not the *upgrade* I had hoped for.UPDATE:After a few months, there are some other things I've noticed about this phone that kind of annoy or disappoint me...1) The touch screen, even when locked - activates every time you accidentally touch it, to tell you that it is locked! Stupid.2) Not nearly as solidly built as my former Razr V3. I feel like I have to be super careful with it all the time.3) Though it is supposed to be an MP3 player - a main reason I got this phone, not having a built-in headphone jack is really annoying. Buying a mini usb to headphone jack adapter only to find that it is extremely fragile and easily lost is a nuisance.4) My BIGGEST pet peeve with this phone may seem trivial, but to me - is a big deal....With my old Razr V3, I could easily plug it in to it's charger in the dark. It would only fit one way, and slid right in every time.On this new phone, the connection is so small, and hard to make, it's almost impossible to do in the dark. Why?I guess in my opinoion, newer models should improve on features, or leave them alone. This phone may have bigger screens, more memory and the ability to play MP3's, it is just simply not an improvement in design on my 3 year old V3.

I used a 6610 and a 6230 and there are no problems with the reception of the 6101.- IRDA to sync data: I own an IBM laptop which have IRDA build in. So it is convinent to use the Nokia PC Suite to sync the phone with my outlook.- Supports Mp3 ringtonesCons:- No Bluetooth: Unlike the 6230 the 6101/6102 does not have bluetooth.- Limited memory: I do not understand why Nokia did not include the external memory card slot, and music player compatibility with this phone.

This phone rocks big timeORIGINAL POST:Got it some days ago (bought from keydroper), requested it in black and black it is. Very fast shipping from Hong Kong (seller is very responsive, replied to my email in two minutes).The display is amazing, with good angle views. It came with Android 4.1.1, not the expected 4.0 listed in the description, no complains there. I find it very fast, I agree it is not ""super fast"". I am using it with Tmobile prepaid, perfect. I plan to keep my prepaid number and get another with the $30 plan (full internet, 100 minutes) using the two sims, will update this review when I do it. Have not tested battery duration, seems good so far.As mentioned in another review by the engineer, the cable is not standard, but I could make a spare cutting the rubber in the mini usb side of an older cable.The only issue I have had so far was that the auto-rotate stopped working, restarting the phone did not fix the issue. I turned it off, took the battery out and put it back, started and it is working ok.I would have paid much more for this phone had I had the chance to test it in advance.***UPDATE 2/24/2013****Ok I just did the test of the data plan. Let me start with the good:Yes it works with the two sims, I have (for this test month) two t-mobile phone numbers, the original simple pay as you go and the other in the SIM2 the $30 data plan. It was easy to setup in the t-mobile site, no need to call them.Now the bad: this phone (at least my phone) does not connect using 3g, it shows an icon with an E (I think it means Edge) and the best download speed I tested was 160kb, upload 50kb and right now it is 35 and 34.I did a simple test: took out the SIM2 and put it in my old and trusty LG optimus and repeated the speed test: I got downloads of 1900kb and uploads of 100kb.The moral of the story: If you buy this phone expecting 3g speed with Tmobile you may be disappointed. I will not renew the plan and keep using it with my simple prepaid, wifi. But I changed my rating to 4.****UPDATE 3/1/2013I had the intermittent issue of the phone screen going off when placing a call. Found the explanation in a post on the web, here is it:------------Question: Hi, can you teach me how to calibrate?Post:It is actually a simple process. Locate your proximity sensor, it is a small LED-like thing next to the speaker, on either side. Look for calibration of proximity sensor, you can find it usually amongst the display options. Tap on it, target-like concentric circles appear and the application asks you to place some obstacles over the sensors. The easiest way is to hold your palm above the sensor approx. 5 cm (2 inches) apart. Touch the Start button, and then try to complete the process with your hand motionless. The whole process takes a few seconds. If you did everything right, during a call, holding the phone to your ear the screen goes blank, and the phone application re-appears when moving the phone away.------------I did the exact process and the phone is perfect now: I make a call, move it near my ear, screen goes off, move it away and it comes back. :-) :-) :-)I think that somebody mentioned this in some comment, but I did not know the exact procedure to calibrate. In my phone it is under Display and the caption is ""Als-ps calibration"" and the button caption is ""Calibrate"" (what the explanation refers to as Start button)****UPDATE 4/3/2013*****I bought another for my daughter, have not received it yet.She has ATT contract plan with data, her iPhone was stolen a while ago and she is using a replacement phone which goes up to 3g only.I removed my tmobile SIM, put her ATT SIM, powered up and behold: no need to change any settings, just acknowledged the prompt stating the SIM change, and the phone worked flawlessly with data at H speed (which is supposed to be faster than 3g)When the new phone arrives I will post speed tests.****UPDATE 4/7/2013******New phone for daughter is beautiful, white, both cameras have more megapixels.It is working with my daughter's ATT contract data SIM, speedtest application reports downloads of 2.2 megabits and uploads of almost 1 megabit (995kb).

When I have these headphones in, I can't hear anything else unless it's really loud.3) They charge quickly, which I guess is a good thing.4) They really are very light. I've had issues with them getting too loose (the tightness of the bands has loosened considerably since I first started wearing them) but I have a really big noggin, so that could just be me.I would suggest them as they're the best of what's available.

I wasn't going to be one of /those/ people who used a cracked screen, so I went a repair shop and for 70 bucks they removed the shattered glass, cleaned the old resin out, replaced the resin (critical step most skip) and reglazed the phone. The touch screen works perfectly, it feels and looks just like new... except for a bit of scarring around the bezel, and an annoying fleck of foreign material that made it into the resin before the glass went on :/What does this have to do with the product? I wasn't using a case when I dropped the phone.. and that's why it broke. Had I been using this case, I have every confidence that the phone would have been protected from the fall. BUT, then I'd be one of the other kind of people - screen protectors and bulky housings to protect an easily repaired (or even replaced) device that has been meticulously crafted to be as thin and "sexy" as possible.The inconvenience of these cases far exceeds the value they provide.

Upon opening the battery pack, I discovered that I was unable to plug it in to the wall charger it came with because it was the wrong size. I called the company and an arab answeed the phone "Hello". I asked, "Is this Trent batteries?" He replied, "Yes how can I help you?" I prceeded to informed him of the wrong size plug, and he informed me that it was just tight and to "Push a little harder it will go on". Long story short, it was the wrong size plug. The employee later told me that there was a whole batch of battery packs that were shipped with the wrong plug. I askd him, why was I not notified of this, or a replacement shipped. He appologized and stated he would send me another one. I informed him I was leaving on my trip tomorrow and would have to go to the store to purchase a battery pack (the replacement would not arrive in time). I was told I would recieve an email in the next few days regarding returning the battery pack.Upon returning from my oversees trip a few weeks later. I had not recieved an email from Itrent,. and to be truthfull I forgot all about it fro another two weeks. When I noticed the batterypack in my closet, I called Itrent up, but got a busy signal repeatedly, so I left a esseage via email. I receved a call the next day.

A strong magnet in the flap closes the case securely but may create problems with some Android phones like Droid X. Nothing to worry as the problem can easily be solved with a free app.Many phones have magnet sensors that trigger certain platform-specific actions. In the BlackBarry world, magnet sensing puts the phone into a holster mode which turns off the screen automatically to save the battery and to prevent accidental dialing. Thus in the BlackBerry world it is desireble and expected to have a magnet clip in a phone case. I have had a BlackBerry phone for years and enjoyed the magnet feature very much.After buying this case I realized that Android phones such as Droid X don't behave that way. I learnded that in the Android world magnet clips are NOT expected in phone cases. Instead, magnets are placed primarily in phone specific car docks (cradles). When Android phones are placed in such docks, they sense the magnet and put themselves into a car dock mode intended to simplify the phone use in the car.However, when an Android phone such as Droid X is placed in a holster case that has a magnet, it gets confused and assumes to be in a car dock. You pull out your phone from such a case expecting to see the home screen but instead you get the annoying car dock screen. There appears to be no simple way to deactivate the magnet sensing on the phone itself. After some research, I found a free app on the Android market that prevents accidental launching of the car dock mode. The app is called Dock Nothingness. It is not the most intuitive one but does the job.After downloading, installing and launching the app, I had to wave the part of the case containing the magnet along the backside of the phone to activate the magnet mode. Once there, I was able to select Dock Nothingness (rather than the car dock mode) as the default action. Problem solved.Now I am enjoying this phone case very much...",4507,0 +4508,"Charge your Kindle or Device from Anywhere! + +Here is a really cool item that allows you charge your electronic item (in my case the Kindle) from anywhere.

So I decided to get the 10000 mAh power bank from the same supplier based on her recommendation.First thing I noticed about this product is the packaging is very professional. Most of the unknown branded product I brought from Amazon comes in a white box, The RAVPower power bank comes with nicely designed packaging as well as a proper user manual that doesn't confuse you. The blue LEDs are very bright. The hard black glossy surface is durable, not easy to scratch. But keep in mind that it is also prone to fingerprints easily. Overall, the built quality is really good.Like many people out there, I never felt the need to have a external power pack. Before this, I had to remind myself to charge my phone every night, which I sometimes forgot and ended up with a flat battery. During the day, I did not want to leave my phone near a power outlet in the office because it is too far away from where I am sitting. Having the power bank on my desk is a perfect solution. Now I can come to my office with a flat battery, charge my phone using the power bank and still keep the phone nearby. Within one full charge of the power bank, I managed to charge my phone (HTC Sensation) 5 times before the battery gets down to only 1 LED. That is 3 days for my HTC sensation to live without the power grid.One issue I wish to point out is that it takes a rather long time of 8-9 hours to charge up the power bank from empty to full charge. I just leave the power bank charging using one of the power outlet in the office before I leave, and it will be fully charged next morning.

I've had this case for about 4 months now. After dropping my phone the first time, the case did its job to protect the phone, however it took the brunt of the force and now one of the attachments for the back part doesn't stick onto the phone very well. After the many drops following the impairment, the case was still as good as new. The back case pops out after every fall, but its typical for hard cases due to the impact. The case also has little notches on the side for the side buttons, making it easier to locate and press them.One con is that it makes the bulky phone bulkier, but its worth it for the protection. Another one is that when using the slide out keyboard, the top case kind of gets in the way of your fingers, taking up a lot of room and makes the top buttons closer to the case hard to press. I got used to it though.I will admit, the screen protector was difficult to put on. I couldn't peel the ""peel this sticker off after application"" part nicely and had to use an eraser to eliminate the sticky residue left from the sticker. After much determination though, it looked decent with the case over it to hide the air bubbles.

However, if I had been buying it (rather than evaluating it as a review model), I would probably be debating whether to return it. It just doesn't work as well as the manufacturer claims. The Sony Ericsson (3G) phone that we have goes from a typical 3 bars in this area, up to 4 rather than 5. The iPhone and Droid I tried it with did get a signal boost, but they were already starting at 5 bars so it wasn't a dramatic one.It's not a bad product, by any means. It clearly does work, and for someone living or working in a spot that has a very weak signal it would certainly be worth considering. It's quite easy to set it up, and having a phone holder built into it is nice. It's just that the company is so emphatic about the idea that this will consistently boost the signal to 5 bars that, particularly when one of the phones was already starting at 3, it was a disappointment to have it fall short.",4518,0 +4519,"Broke 6 days after getting it + +After a long wait (ordered in October, delivered Dec 7th) my case finally came.

It gives me portability and I only have to handle the emails once.",4520,0 +4521,"Not a bad device, just know its limitations + +I have had this for 4 weeks now and it does what it says: Tells you when you have email or SMS, play games, skip/advance/pause music playback & tell you the name of the current song (handy while driving), dial the phone or cancel a call. Not too bad. I usually get about 2 days of battery, sometimes 3 but never more. Not that big a deal if you don't want to wear it to bed, just charge it. (Don't want the notifications to wake you with a buzz telling you that there is a new sale on Amazon, right?) Battery charges in about a half hour or so, not an issue. Resolution is not super high but even with my old tired eyes I can see the text good enough to read everything. Colors show up well and it is cool to be able to show photos taken on my S3 via my watch to people. The look of the watch is not too bad either. I mean it looks like a watch and not much bigger, if any, than any other mans watch. Fairly stylish too. It is cool to have and wear, but most people ask if it is the new Samsung smartwatch. Most people didn't even know there was such a thing until Samsung started their marketing a few weeks ago and this is V2 of the Sony product.**Wish list**1: I wish there were more watch faces. If you install a non-Sony face the battery lasts less than a day. There are only 5 faces to choose from and only one of them digital. I want a ""regular"" HH:MM digital display with a 12 hour display not the 24HR military type, perhaps with he date underneath. Simple. It would be nice if there was a configuration option that would do this, not simply choose between faces. The analog faces are quite nice though.2: It would be EXTREMELY useful if it could dictate an SMS message and send like Google can. I'd love to be able to receive a text and dictate my reply and be done instead of breaking out the phone.3: More apps. (Not Sony's fault.) It would be real cool if there was an app development kit that was like VBA, HTML, or some ""easey drag & drop"" method. It would be cool, that's all.**The Not So Good**Setup took a bit of time. It is supposed to use NFC but I couldn't get it to work I manually downloaded the app to my S3 phone and manually paired via Bluetooth. After that all was good. It does freeze up every now ant then but switching off then back on clears it up. Once, right at 3 weeks it completely locked up. This was a pain because there are more than a few users out there that the SW2 locks up on and there is little help to fix. On the Sony site there is re-installation software but I could not get the SW2 to be recognized via USB by a Sony computer to run the software. I did get the watch operational but I had to uninstall all software and reboot a few times. Now I have to re install software and complete the setup process again.Bottom Line:+It is cool+I like the convenience+Good screen-It freezes up-Setup could have been better-Could do more+It's coolBuy or don't?

Press the Red Button and wait about 7 seconds - not bad compared with some SIM card phones I've used - and you get a display with the name of your service provider, the time and date. Hold the button again for about 7 seconds to turn the power off.On the bottom of the display (and the display uses nice, large, fonts) are Menu on the left and Name on the right. Press the lighted bar under Name and you go straight to the phonebook. Press the lighted bar under Menu and you go to (oh, this is too easy) the Menu. Press the lighted arrow keys and scroll through Phonebook, Messages, Call, LogAlarm, Calendar, Calculator, FM Radio, Games, and of course, Settings.I don't know what problem the one negative reviewer might have had, but I had no trouble at all setting my Doro to display the day/month/and year as well as the time.The Phonebook is not complicated, but as this phone is intended for older users, the instructions might have been a bit more complete. When entering a name, in order to place a blank space between the first and last name, you need to press th zero (0) key. This isn't mentioned in the manual but there is a small marker below the 0 that helped me figure it out. The pound key (#) also has a small marker and (this is mentioned in the manual) that is what you press to access the Special Characters. After that, everything is remarkably easy. When you select Add or New Contact, a menu offers pre-defined spaces for Name, Mobile, Home, and Office. Pressing the lighted bar on the left Saves your entry. Pressing the lighted bar on the right takes you Back to the previous Icon. You want more? Okay, it has Bluetooth connectivity. You can copy your phonebook entries to or from the SIM card to or from the phone memory. You can enable Silent ModeIf you service offers messaging (I use a T-Mobile pre-paid card that does not) just scroll to Messages. There is Voice Mail, Speed Dialing (9 numbers), and from Setup you can activate an SOS button on the back of the phone. Press it quickly twice or hold it for three seconds, and it will dial (and send a pre-determined text message) to whatever number you have selected. No, it won't call 911, automatic calls to 911 are prohibited. The phone has a bright, clear display, very good volume and better than average battery lifeWhat else? On the outside of the phone are two small lights. One flashes if you have a missed call or message, the other flashes if your battery is getting low. There is also a battery level indicator on the main display and there are Soft Keys that can be assigned multiple functions.And the Doro 410 does not have a camera. It isn't designed for tech-savvy people. It's designed for someone who needs a basic phone for sending and receiving calls. Your teenager will not like it. Your parents will. The phone comes with a SIM card from Consumer Cellular who is the sole service provider, but a quick Google will turn up lots of unlocking codes. In fact, e-Bay has listings for (new) unlocked Doro 410's at $59.00! Just pop in your curent SIM card and go.",4523,0 +4524,"Perfect! + +I love these. I looked at the other behind the head, bluetooth headsets. Most people complained about the weight and not being able to lay back on a bench with the others. So I bought these, hoping they wouldn't fit too loosely and the cord in the back get in the way.They're well made, sturdy, work easily. The cord in the back is unnoticeable. They fit my ears quite well. They're insanely loud if you turn them up (so not a problem, but at least not too quiet like others I've had). They fit in your ears very, very securely. They seem to auto-adjust to the height of your ear. I thought I would have to adjust it myself, but you just slip them on and they slide to the right length somehow. Good battery life. Buttons are easy to use. No problem at all laying on back of head, as I use them at the gym and have had little problem.I even thought they'd be big and look weird, but they hide behind the ear, looking like a regular set of earphones.

I live in a fringe area and wanted to try something like this out. Works great and well built. Worth the price paid for.

S-OFF and unlock, and root this phone, add a custom ROM and you're good. Overclock it all over, save battery, add features. Enjoy. It's a fast phone if you do it all right. Stock is fine, but it felt too limited for me. I usually run my phone at a max of 1.7 GHz and use a 4 MB cache for my SD card. I got the 2x Anker 1900 mAh battery pack with charger. I never run out of power. Always have a full spare in my pocket. With normal use, I can pull about 7 hours straight overall usage out of it. It all depends on what governor you end up using.

Satellite internet is lame, so I tether quite a lot from my phone, as 3G is still more responsive, even after throttling.. But, for living at the very edge of 3G coverage, it's not bad, there's one spot in the house where i get 4 bars. in the city, wimax coverage is not too great. but, it doesn't seem to get throttled, so when i'm there, i take advantage.",4526,0 +4527,"Uncomfortable and Cuts out + +I don't have the black wireless headset, but I do have the Halo Reach edition of this, which is the same item with a different paint job. I have 2 issues with this item.One is that the audio tends to cut out at times. It gets its sync back pretty quickly, but it's irritating to have the voice switch to the speakers and then back into the headset every hour or so. I don't know if there is something in my area that is causing interference or not so I'm not going to call it a major flaw.Second, is the fit. It only comes with 2 ear loops, one has an M on it for medium and the other has an S on it for small. I use the medium and I have a hard time getting it on, not to mention after a while it feels like my ear is being pinched and it gets uncomfortable. Why they didn't think to include a large size is beyond me. This thing would be nearly perfect for me if they had.

The major downfall, it's way too bulky to use with the monstrous belt clip that they've created, and the ""media stand"" is a joke. You push the spring loaded clip back where it's supposed to lock in place. If you can actually get it to stay there instead of springing back, there's only two positions where it will actually prop the phone up, but only if you don't breathe on it. My major complaint, though, is the screen protector. It's just cheap plastic, which scratches way too easily, and it seems to statically draw in any dust that may be lurking near your phone. It's really great when you try to pry the thing back apart to clean all the dust off that's gotten trapped between your screen and the screen ""protector."" This case was definitely designed to stay on the phone once it's installed. Take my recommendation, and buy a Zagg cover, install that on your phone, and remove the cheap screen protector from the Otterbox before installing it. It comes off easily, unlike the case.

Overall I do enjoy the phone a lot and it's the best phone I've ever owned (2nd smartphone) and I do like it more than the original Evo that Sprint offers. Below are the good and bad.Good:- Dedicated keyboard (why I bought it over the standard Evo). Works just like it should!- Good feel in your hands- 5 MP camera- Lots of apps- Good call quality- GPS works like it shouldBad:- When you transfer music to the phone it has to be MP3's or won't work. Even some of the MP3s don't or transfer over in bulk- While the camera is good, the one on my Samsung Memoir was more flexible when things are moving, this tends to blur. The standard Evo has more megapixels as well.- One the phone needed a systm update and I was given no notice and all of a sudden my pictures could not be retreived. After the updated I could retreive the ones I took going forward- Battery life: I don't use the phone that much but it's a drainer (especially with 4g). Expect to charge this at least another hour each day to make it last after a full charge- 4g: not that fast, eats batteries, not widely available from Sprint yetSo at the end of the day it's a phone and it does what it's supposed to very well for the most part.

Works great with the Halo screen protector",4542,0 +4543,"Clumsy interface, bad camera, high price + +Tempted by a 5 megapixel camera, a touch screen and google operational system, I thought: that's it! here I have an iphone without the life bonds imposed by this brand, a pretty good camera for a mobile, and google-like neatness for doing complex tasks in simple ways. However, I was disappointed in all fronts.The ergonomics of the device is overly poor - certainly well below iphone's. The main proof is its own manual of instructions which, with more than two hundred pages, is unfortunately needed for users to be able to use many basic commands that cannot be accessed intuitively. So the simplicity of use and intuitiveness that is such a great part of Google success sadly were not translated into this operational system (e.g.: I tried to switch to another gmail account in this device and for now I gave up, as I couldn't find how to do it)Another example is the physical keys (it has several ones), which need a considerable force to be pressed (resulting for instance that the mobile is not comfortable to operate with one hand only). But in contrast to the toughness of dealing with the mechanical buttons, the interaction with the touchscreen is hyper-sensitive to the finger touch, so you often end up activating commands you don't want to - like calling to phone numbers when in fact all you wanted was to navigate in the agenda, or opening applications (or even sending then to the trash bin) when all you wanted was to browse among the screen (actually that can happen even when the mobile is left alone in your pocket)Small details can be annoying too: the horizontal mode of the screen does not allow you to finish the task you started (so you cannot send the text you wrote without going back to the vertical mode). When you want to see your files, there is no the option of just plugging the mobile into the USB port of your computer. You have first to ""mount"" (process not intuitive - again you need to have read the manual) and after that, ""unmount"" the mobile.And finally, the camera is sincerely bad. Forget the idea of having it as a substitute for a digital camera (as I used to do with my old mobile Nokia N95) mainly when it comes to take pictures when flash is needed, as the camera has no flash.overall - and also taking into account the high price of the unlocked version- a bad deal.",4543,0 +4544,"A Great Buy + +The rating speaks for itself!

It's not perfect, and has its quirks, but it performs better than most I've tried in this range. The keyboard is easy and travels well, the 3G powered Mobile Web is faster than I expected, it has threaded messaging, the touch screen is more responsive than the Pantech Laser, the call quality is satisfactory and there are many convenient features (Quick Contacts, Inbox, Voice Recognition, etc.). Additionally, the Easy mode is in fact, easy. My only gripe is that there is no threaded messaging in this mode, which is odd because it is easier to track conversations within a threaded view. The phone does not have a 3.5mm jack and relies upon the micro usb port to serve double duty(you'll need to find an adapter). Access to apps, games, ringtones, etc. is just silly, so you may not want to waste your time. The music player is fine, as far as it goes and I was surprised to see an equalizer. If you're looking for a basic, no data plan, qwerty messaging phone, this is a great alternative. If you're looking for a cheap smart phone, exit stage left.

No additional software was needed. The cable also allows the phone to be charged by the computer's USB port.",4562,0 +4563,"Continues to be a great smartphone! + +UPDATE NUMBER 2 :DEven happier with this phone now than I was before! I have gotten used to using it and it is like second nature. The little touchpad is a life saver. (Discussed below...) A few other things I have noticed are:1. that the phone is narrow enough to easily reach all areas of the screen with your thumb while holding the phone normally. On my old phone you had to either use two hands or wallow the phone around in your hand to get your thumb on everything. Though the screen is physically smaller on the Backflip, it is much easier to use and navigate on.2. The phone and screen are very durable. Mine survived a serious drop of about 10 feet while I was on a ladder. (Yeah yeah. I know. I shouldn't have been using my phone while climbing on a ladder.) Anyway, I dropped the phone onto concrete. The plastic was scuffed up a bit but has had no detrimental effect on the phone.3. I can play YouTube videos. Evidently iPhone (or the Safari browser) cannot.So after 6 months I can say I am still very very happy with the Backflip. I will post another update once the Android software update rolls out.UPDATE :)I have now had the phone a few months and can still say that I am as pleased with this phone as I have been with anything I have ever bought. It has turned out to be a great smartphone. The apps store may have something to do with that. You can download video players, office tools, games, etc... Even some pretty decent E6B flight calculators! There are a couple of apps I suggest you download right off the bat. The first is Advanced Task Killer from Rechild, or another tool to manage apps. The apps killer lets you shut down apps without having to go to each one and close it down individually. While multi-tasking is great, you can end up with quite a few apps running in the background. Advanced Task Killer lets you manage them more efficiently than you would using the default tools. A good file manager also helps. OI File is a good one. Another good app is Save MMS, which lets you save photos attached to messages. There are also a number of good games and music players. Many of them very inexpensive or even free! Anyway, I liked the phone before, and I like it even better now. The only thing I can think of that needs improvement, is the voice dialing, (mentioned below).Original review:I have to admit that this phone took a bit of getting used to. I have had it now about a month and couldn't be happier. My previous smart phone worked great as a phone and to text, but sucked at everything else. Anyway, the AT&T; sales agent said this phone was targeted at the ""online generation"" with a lot of features for Facebook, twitter, email, etc. And it has all that. Motoblur is not just ad hype. It syncs it all. But not only is the Backflip great for all that stuff, it is a very capable business phone as well. It has completely replaced my old phone and my iPaq. And works better than both.Anyway, here is my rating system. Great :D Good :) Average :| Poor :/ Bad :(WEIGHT AND DURABILITY :)The phone is fairly lightweight. Heavier than some other phones, but still easy enough to carry. It feels very well built and solid. Does not have that flimsy feel some other phones have. Nice and narrow. Fairly thin but a little thicker than some other texting phones.BATTERY LIFE :)Normally, I can go two days before charging. If I turn on the WiFi while at work, then I have to charge every night. I have never needed to charge the battery during the day. Motorola does not include a car charger, but it accepts micro-USB chargers which can be found inexpensively just about anywhere.OS and SYNCING :)The Backflip runs on Android. Completely different than Windows Mobile. It doesn't have anything like Windows ActiveSync, but you can use Google sync. After a little work I installed Google sync which works very well. Syncing occurs over the air so no cables to plug in. I also like being able to attach the phone as a USB storage device. When you plug your phone into a USB port you can choose to attach as USB or charge only. It disconnects the SIM card when used as a USB but it has come in handy a couple of times. The SIM automatically restarts when you unplug the USB cable. You have to buy AT&T;'s data plan, but the phone is WiFi capable, which speeds up internet browsing experience.STORAGE: The phone accepts microSD cards. Mine came with a 2GB card included.POWER ON AND SCREEN LOCK :)The screen lock function is simple and works one handed. Press the power button, then tap on the unlock area. If you choose a security code, that also can be entered one handed as the numbers are large and easy to tap on. Unfolding the phone also turns it on.PHONE :DLeave it folded and it works like most other touch screen phones. Apps come up on the screen and you tap to activate. Tapping the phone icon brings up a very simple and easy to use dialer. One handed phone use is the norm. This phone is made for thumb dialing. The narrow size and large numbers make it very easy to use. On this screen you can also select recent calls, speed dial, or frequently called numbers. Sound quality is superb and as a speaker phone it ranks with the best. The volume can be turned up very high. (Sound gets a little gravely at full volume but still good.) I have not had any dropped calls. I have seen a lot of complaints about AT&T;'s network but I can't say I have ever had a problem. So I don't know if this is something specific to the phone or the network. Anyway, I have not had a problem.TEXTING and KEYBOARD :DUnfold the keyboard and it makes a great texting phone. With my previous phone I found having a real keyboard, (no matter how small) dramatically increases the usability of texting. At least for me. You can develop a feel for where letters and numbers are that I just never got with the touchscreen keyboards. The only complaint I have is that the numbers are tucked up against the top and you have to be very deliberate when pressing them. Still this is a great keyboard. I like the feel and it is spread out enough that even my fat fingers have no trouble. The virtual screen keyboard is OK, but I find the real keyboard better.APPS :DThere are plenty of apps on the Android Market, and finding and installing them is a piece of cake. I use spreadsheets a lot and I was able to download the same program for this phone that I used on my old phone. Editing documents is also easy using the keyboard. Plus there are all the usual pre-installed run of the mill apps: calendar, calculator, etc... They all work just like you expect them to.TOUCHPAD?!? WTF?!?! :DSpeaking of spreadsheets, there is this strange little touch pad on the back of the touch screen that you use just like a touch pad on a laptop. I thought it was weird at first, but I have come to love it. It makes scrolling around a spreadsheet a joy. Much easier than swiping or using the arrow keys. I know some people who think it's a waste, but I like it. Nice job Motorola.MP3 PLAYER :)It makes a pretty good music device. Sound is good but I thought it got a little gravely at close to full volume. Even with earbuds. I do like the AT&T; radio. Actually works very well. Makes up for not having an FM radio built in. Ringtones are MP3 as well. Lots of apps for those.CAMERA and VIDEO :)There is a 5 MP camera and a video capture app. The camera works well and has the best flash I have seen on a camera phone. Prints from the phone pics are very sharp. The video seems to work well but I haven't really used it that much. Still it's neat to have.MULTITASKING :)You can run multiple apps on the phone while making a call. I did it just to see if it worked. I don't know that this is a great advantage but you can do it. It can get confusing pretty fast.VOICE DIALING :(Motorola claims that this phone has voice dialing capability. I could not get it to work well enough to be useful. They could not get it to work well at the AT&T; store either. I will miss voice dialing, as my old phone had pretty good voice dialing capability. Voice dialing on this phone just doesn't seem to work well. Very poor recognition. (Just browse on AT&T;'s support site and you can find a lot of other Backflip users with the same complaint.) I would rate voice dialing on this phone as bad. It is so bad that I think Motorola should not even pretend they offer it.SCREEN PROTECTION :)It has a glass screen. Nice, but because the phone flips backwards (leaving both the keyboard and screen exposed) I suggest you use a screen and keyboard protector. Being glass, the screen shouldn't scratch easily but I feel better with a cover on it anyway. Motorola offers a two piece cover that works well for less than $10.00. I am using one that the AT&T; store threw in for free when I got the phone. Does not seem to affect the touch screen sensitivity and keeps the keys up off the surface when you lay it down. I do not use a case. I just drop the phone in my pocket.CLOCK :DAnother neat feature that is a bit different, is that when unfolded halfway and plugged into charge the phone becomes a bedside alarm clock. Not just a phone with an alarm, but a classy looking bedside alarm clock. Pretty nifty. It also has all the normal clock and alarm functions.OVERALL :)In summery, this is first and foremost, a really good phone. It also makes for a nice tool to manage your online stuff. A pretty good music player. A very capable business tool. A good game device. Nice camera and video camera. A very nice alarm clock. And a great texting phone. Once you get used to it, I think you will like it. The only feature that is below par, (especially for Motorola) is the voice dialing.Anyway, this is a ""different"" type of phone. But different isn't always bad. In this case it's great. Good job Motorola.",4563,0 +4564,"Works great! + +The only way they could really improve on this Bluetooth headset is to make it completely invisible, something like the Miracle Ear hearing aid. I'm sure we'll see that someday soon, but until then, this is a fantastic headset. Good sound quality, good range, very light weight, stylish and small. I do wish that when I have an incoming call that it would read off the name from my Caller ID if the person is in my contacts list, instead it tells me that I have a call on Phone 1 (you can connect two phones, I don't know why you'd want to). The only other gripe is that the backside does make my ear stick out a little further, but it's not that big of a deal. I've also worn this with my glasses and it doesn't create and problems. This headset is amazingly comfortable and light, I really enjoy it!",4564,0 +4565,"Horrible + +This case looks nothing like the picture. I expected the case I saw In the picture!

Charger is a bit odd, but is universal this way. + +I am using both of the 2200mAh batteries for my Samsung Galaxy Nexus (Verizon). I can use them without replacing the back cover, which is nice. The batteries seem to be of a nice quality and the charger is a good quality one, too. The only odd thing is the charging pins on the charger are movable, which makes it somewhat universal in nature but one has to line-up the pins properly in order to charge. NOT an issue though; just something to get used to.Also, this charger can be used to recharge your stock battery too and is nice and fast.Lastly, the shipping time was very fast and it was packaged well. (The only feedback I have for shipping is this: The plastic around each battery is difficult to remove without using a knife or scissors that may result in nicking the battery because the plastic is almost form fitted onto the battery. This will not cause issues though; except cosmetically).Good stuff! So, I would recommend these batteries and charger to anyone looking for a little more time from their Nexus at a tremendously great price.",4566,0 +4567,"not trash + +The listers who gave this a bad review are complete morons.

No complaints here considering the cost.",4571,0 +4572,"Good phone, lousy carrier + +I've owned my V3m for about 6 months now, and I've had no trouble with it at all. My only complaint is with Verizon. Motorola manufactured a phone that can be hooked up to your computer with a simple USB cord, making it easy to load your own pictures, wallpaper, ringtones, or whatever. Verizon has blocked this ability on the phones they sell! They want you to have to pay them to send pictures to yourself, and to have to buy ringtones. Why should I pay them $2 to $3 each for tiny snippets of songs that I already own, or could buy from iTunes for 99 cents for the whole song?!The phone can be hacked (there are instructions all over the net), but you can fry your phone if you don't hack it properly, and the hacking voids your warranty, so if you're not pretty tech-savvy and you really want this phone, I'd STRONGLY advise that you go with another carrier that doesn't disable the phone's capabilities. If I had known this when I bought my phone, that's what I'd have done, and I will be definitely be switching when my contract is up unless Verizon changes their policies.",4572,0 +4573,"A little disappointed as a former H17txt user + +I purchased this headset almost 2 weeks ago and I must say that it is somewhat disappointing. My last tried and true bluetooth headset was the H17txt, so when it finally conked out on me and I saw this newer model I was excited to try it out. So here is my review on the upgraded txt model:Longer Range than the H17txt: I often can walk from my parking space to the entrance of the store and forget I left my phone in the car and it's not until I hear the phone 1 disconnected voice prompt that I realize I left my phone. This can be a good thing if you are doing multiple things around the house and don't want to worry about carrying your phone around, but can also be bad (for instance, you left your phone on the bus and the bus is on the next block pulling off already then you finally realize you left your phone).Sound Quality: I must say I agree with other users who have reviewed this headset and say that the sound is definitely average. I honestly don't think it's better than the previous model. I still have some trouble hearing people at times and for the price and with the advertising of all this HD audio, I definitely expected better sound performance. I have already had some people tell me they couldn't hear me while using it.Connectivity: The pairing the first time was pretty quick, but I notice that at times the connectivity gets lost when you flip open the boom it will say ready to pair instead of connecting to my already paired device. I did seem to have this issue with prior Android phone models with the H17txt so maybe this is just normal for these models. I sometimes have to go to my bluetooth devices on my phone settings and then click H19txt in order to get it to connect. This is rather annoying and inconvenient especially while driving.The Android App (My Motospeak): Downloading the app is rather pointless I have found because it hardly recognizes my commands when text messages come through and it asks if you want to listen now. Whether I say yes or no I have had to repeat myself more than once at times. Also, the H17txt MotoSpeak app was able to announce the callers by contact name. Apparently, Motorola has not updated this app for newer Android versions so anything beyond Android 2.3 we are stuck with just hearing the phone numbers announced digit by digit. Motorola definitely loses a star for this. If you are going to release a newer model of an accessory, you must keep the matching app up to date!Battery Life: The battery life lasts for hours I can use it all day. I have yet to find any other bluetooth that matches the battery life of Motorola's txt models, so this is still a plus with this newer model.Finally, what's in the box: Motorola for some reason decided to shorten the length of the usb cord that attaches to the plug to charge this headset. The usb plus is about 2 inches long. I'm not sure the thinking behind that but it's rather inconvenient.For the price this bluetooth costs, I would definitely not recommend it. I paid $55 for it and feel that it should not be much more in price than the prior model. At this point, unfortunately I cannot say that I would 100% recommend this product. Motorola has definitely let me down with the release of this model, I expected more.",4573,0 +4574,"Great phone for the price + +I didn't want to spend alot on a phone and needed just a basic one.This fits all my needs for what I use a phone for.I would recommend this phone highly.",4574,0 +4575,"Not what was expected + +This was a gift for my son for his phone, he wanted a really rubbery type of cover and this was one wasn't as rubbery as he had expected.",4575,0 +4576,"Sent it back + +Got it one day,it was sent back the next day.

One is labeled IP Port the other non-IP (as of the date of this review). Although the documentation does not specify the IP apparently stands for IPad. The non-IP port does not charge some of my devices (Droid X, IPAD original) but does trickle-charge my HP Touchpad, Iphone 4 and Ipod Touch Gen II. It's good for overnight charging of those devices but not much else. The higher output IP Port does the job. I was hoping for more from the lower output port (like being able to charge my Droid X so I could charge it and the IPAD at the same time). Nice price though and works well otherwise.",4577,0 +4578,"You should know this about THIS phone and some of the sellers + +I ordered this phone in Sept, thinking I would be able to browse the internet and access the T-Mobile browser, media player etc. After several failed attempts to open the browser, T-Mobile finally had to send a 'fix' to the phone that would allow internet access, as much access as was possible for this Euro designed phone. I was only able to view some pages but could read my e-mail, that's it. No watching you tube or any videos, no listening to AOL Music or other streaming media. I mentioned this to Vibe Cellular, the internet access problem, they suggested calling t-mobile and LG for assistance, which did help fopr what it was worth. I bought this thinking it was FULLY compatible with T-Mobile...I figured, what the heck, who needs internet anyway...The phone came with a round prong charger (European 50 cycle type), with no adapter. I ordered a separate charger (through Amazon) which didn't fully charge the phone.I also didn't receive the 8gb card which I ordered and paid for. I instead received a 2gb card. Both of these issues were later resolved by Vibe Cellular after I contacted them.When the phone was able to receive a full charge more issues began showing up.The phone locked after appx.15 seconds of being idle. I repeatedly changed the settings to allow 1 minute(this was the longest time available in options), but the phone didn't change, it still locked up after a few seconds.I also had trouble sending and receiving messages. I contacted T-Mobile and thought that the issue was solved after taking appx. 30 minutes and 2 different T-Mobile agents to figure out how to fix it.I couldn't always send messages, sometimes I could but... can't explain other than to say that there was no rhyme or reason for this? I would send a message to someone, be in conversation, then all the sudden an error appeared???I began getting an ERROR 15 notification, maybe a dozen times a day ?I am not sure if all of the notifications were the same because my screen wouldn't unlock in time for me to read them?I only Know that I was constantly hearing the ERROR notification (the ones that I did get to read indicated delivery errors had occured, ""message couldn't be sent"")I would continually get more notifications asking if I wanted to continue to attempt to 're-send' the message.I hit the 'cancell' option but it didn't do any good. A few minutes later I would see that option again, and more than likely I would 'cancel' again...If you like going in circles, this is the phone for you !!!Also the screen became increasingly harder to 'wake' up or navigate.I would use the stylus because my fingers would sometimes hit the wrong button, even though I calibrated the screen more than once or twice.very frustrating to try to scroll down your contact list when the page won't move with your finger and you end up hitting the wrong contact...this is why I thought the stylus would help, but I was wrong. I would use the stylus to push the 'down' arrow but the screen wouldn't acknowledge the touch...It got to the point that I didn't even attempt to call anyone from the contact list, unless they happened to be on the first page!I guess the phone forced me into memorizing a lot of phone numbers...The screen also required more force to operate. A simple touch wouldn't always work.The new 8gb card was nice. I downloaded a bunch of music. BUT, Here is another issue.I like to set my phone up so that each of my contacts has a different song. The phone allowed this only a small percentage of the time.I didn't understand that either, since All of the music was in the same format and all appeared to be fine when I editted the ringtones... but when the contact called, a different (default) ring tone would play...but not on every one, some of the sounds I actually applied...yeah...this COOKIE had some big crumbs...Finally.I was working last week when I heard the phone (which was safely stowed in it's protective holster at my side) giving the usual beep alerts, probably ERROR 15, but who knows ???When I was able to I pulled the phone out to check the alerts.To my surprise the LCD front looked very weird with lines all through it.As I put my finger on it to 'wake it' 'unlock it', the screen image looked as if my finger was breaking a glass. There were lines all through it and impossible to read anything !!!The good news is, it still receives calls !!!I contacted Vibe Cellular, but this was their response. (keep in mind that I didn't get the right charger or the larger 8gb card until many weeks after originally receiving this junk phone...It's funny that the ERROR 15, and other ERRORS, didn't really show up until I began using the 'correct' charger which charged the phone 5 x's better that the old one, and added the 8gb card...could this be why they weren't shipped originally?I was at minimum hoping that Vibe Cellular would offer to work out some deal...I mean I spent $[...] on this practically useless peice of garbage...Here is their reply...[...]Sincerely,Izzy",4578,0 +4579,"Works Well + +The MiFi works great most of the time.

It will be hottest if you are streaming Netflix off the battery in an area of weak signal.If it gets too hot it will freeze and to reboot it you will need to remove the battery.

The armband is broad enough and adjustable enough that the phone is very stable while jogging. The clear cover provides a bit of weather protection but I suspect that the phone would eventually get wet in anything beyond a light mist.

I live in a 3 story house and their range is pretty good- I can leave my device on the 3rd floor, and if I'm staying still on the 1st, they will work fine- but if you move around, it'll break up a bit. They don't get in my way when working out which is what I was looking for so I got that. For the price, I'd say it's worth trying if you just need a cheap pair of bluetooth earbuds.Also, a little tip on connecting them to your device: Hold down the white button that turns the buds on and DON'T let go until they are fully connected.

Here's my experience. Please note that I am using a Treo 650 cell phone, which may not have the best bluetooth technology.Pros:- Extremely comfortable (that's why I bought Jabra)- Extremely lightweight- Decent battery life- Connects much faster than the BT250 (~2 seconds, versus ~4 seconds on the BT250)- Sound quality is better than the BT250- Lightweight charger that occupies only one powerstrip slotCons:- Status lights are placed behind semi-translucent rubber and are difficult to see -- especially in daylight- Sound quality is not as crisp as I'd expect (but this may be partially due to bluetooth technology in my Treo 650)- Doesn't always connect (may be due to the Treo)- Rubber earbud falls off VERY easily- Difficult to carry in pocket since earbud WILL fall off- Difficult to turn on/off (have to hold down the Answer button for 3 seconds to turn on and 5 seconds to turn off)I am very disappointed with the way Jabra designed the four buttons on the device: Volume Up, Volume Down, Pair, and Answer. A dedicated button for pairing seems like a waste of a button -- especially when it doesn't have a power button. There should be quick-response power button. In the case of the Treo 650, if the bluetooth device is turned on and within 30 feet of the cell phone, calls will automatically get sent to the Jabra. Which means that answering the phone is a pain in the butt unless you have the Jabra constantly in your ear. I think Jabra expects you to wear this thing on your ear all day long -- kind of a stupid expectation, in my opinion.I do NOT recommend this product because of its shortcomings.",4586,0 +4587,"Picture Text + +Very cool phone, only one problem.

This clamps the phone in securely as is, bar surround removed to flat piece, gorilla glued to a cut-out section of ~2mm thick plastic with 2 Velcro bands attached, and then strapped around the boom, but due to the aforementioned review I decided to put rubber bands around the mount at the top and bottom of the phone. The bands are the real fat grippy kind (think lobster bands only slightly larger diameter,) as tight as I could fit over the mount, so they stay in place very well and only touch the edges of the screen on both my Droid and my wife's Evo.

But to cheat that while it is breaking in I applied some armor all and it also slide with ease from that point - by doing that it'll also keep it clean and cosmetically looking good. Now the design is also awesome - it has a thin rubber case that goes around the phone then a skeleton polymer case that goes over that to protect the corners. When the phone is in the holster the screen in protected not just from scratches from a oopsie as well such as dropping it and cracking your screen. People may wonder why I have a large phone and how rediculas this phone my look on your hip in a holster but that's my preference; but it's the case we're talking about here...another cool feature I learned after using this is that the clip is sort of like a quick detach - as I bumped into a wall and instead of the clip breaking off and that be the end of this case life - it was able to be attached back to the base as ease.

From weather to reminders and timers. I've heard that it over heats, freezes, crashes and dies within hours of it off the charger. So far I have had no problems with the battery's life. It has never froze or crashed on me and it has not over heated. It does get a bit warm if you tend to use it a lot though. If you get an app killer, the battery life lasts me about 10 to 12 hours.

Once i got the box i opened it up and set my ipod nano like a charm. Its so light that sometimes i even forget i have it on! The other thing i was worried about was the idea of having to set the bands, which meant taking it down to a local shop and having someone taking out or adding bands to fit my wrist but right out the box this band fit me like it was made for me! (I have about average wrists in case your wondering) There are a couple of drawbacks. If you order the ""gun metal"" wrist band it wont be the same color as shown in the pictures, its a couple of shades lighter, this depends on how you prefer your watch band to look. It actually works out for me because it matches my ""black"" ipod nano. The second drawback is that it will scratch the clip of your ipod when you are not wearing it, but then again if you are wearing the watch whose going to see the bottom of your ipod? I would definitely buy this product. I was however disappointed that its now $59.99 where as i paid $69.99 only a few weeks ago from amazon market place.

After reading many forums and Amazon reviews on the subject, I purchased Seidio 3600 mAH battery + back cover above. Also purchased Hyperion 4200 mAh + larger back cover combo.The Samsung 2100 mAh battery lasted between 10 to 14hours with mostly work related usage: phone 50%, email 25%, txt 20%, Internet 5% but NO games or movies.Installed Seidio 3600mAh 4 days ago. After first full charge from state it was in when I received the item, I only got 13hours of battery life. Waited until battery fail to 5% battery left, let it recharge all night long until fully charged up. To my surprise, I got 29 hours of battery life on second charge. On third charge, I am already at 26 hours of battery life with 32% battery life left !!!As far as the back cover is concerned, it is IMO the best extended battery cover out there. Great quality, looks great on GS3 and it allows a better phone grab than slim OEM cover without feeling bulky.After reading previous Amazon review, I also had my doubts at first concerning the closing of Seidio back cover but found out very fast, the phone and cover had to be pinched harder than original cover in order to close perfectly.From what I read, this battery needs to be completely discharge and recharged 4 to 5 times to get full battery power in the long run.I do not think a bigger battery is really necessary. The idea is to get enough battery power to get through a heavy work day without having to look for charger in the middle of a phone conversation. For those who like to watch movies or surf the Internet intensely, a bigger battery may be what you are looking for. Will test Hyperion 4200mAh and review in coming days.Also, and most importantly, GS3s are not made equal, some users have more apps, draining battery and running in background than others. I optimized my phone based on many reviews I read on Internet. I use my phone essentially for work related usage. So, battery test results may vary.

Am a gadget freak and wanted to see what the lower end of the BT speaker market might represent. The speaker seems well built and it paired quickly with our phones (but not my 1st generation iPad). The sound is decent but best to fill an interior room or for casual listening on the deck, not a party boom box. The manual and voice announcing mechanism show a surprising lack of sophistication when it comes to the US market, but not deal killers for me. I did try the speaker phone, which was ragged at best. I really have no reference point to compare this to direct competition, but for $30 it seems worth it overall. If you want rich and louder sound, you'd have to spend a lot more I suspect. Update: I deciphered the manual and figured out how to increase the volume by pressing down one of the buttons on the top of the box. It works, and now the volume is much louder. Since my first concern has been alleviated, I now give the box four stars. Try one!6/7/14My first box stopped charging recently, and when DK Knight learned of it, they sent me a new box no questions asked. The replacement is a big improvement vs. the original. Better build quality in terms of the rubberized components, no more irritating voice prompt, and much more volume capacity. This is a really good value vs. much more costly speakers with this look (my neighbor has a Jambox). I still rate the overall experience because of the first fail at 4 stars, but the upgraded version of the speaker is certainly more than worth considering!",4602,0 +4603,"You are going to either love this phone or hate this phone + +You are either going to love this phone or hate this phone. I love mine. But I am going to write this review with an eye towards scaring away people who will hate this phone.This phone's feature set is balanced differently than most other phones in its price class. Other phones in this price class emphasize megapixels, music, video, and fashion. This phone emphasizes productivity and connectivity. If you want productivity and connectivity, here is your phone. If not, there are plenty of others to choose from here on Amazon and elsewhere.Let's start with what this phone does well -This phone remotely synchronizes with Microsoft Exchange. If your company uses Exchange, you will have one phone book, one appointment calendar, and one e-mail inbox equally available on your computer and your phone. Updates in either place show up in the other. The Nokia implementation even handles contacts that have a company name but no first-name or last-name fields. My Motorola RARZ2 V8 failed this test.The phone has Wi-Fi. I didn't know how much I would use Wi-Fi on my phone until I had it.The phone can display word, excel, and PDF documents. It runs Google Maps very well, but without a GPS chip, you can only locate your position within about 900 to 5000 meters.The phone has a real message waiting light. Why is this feature disappearing from modern phones?The phone supports high speed 3.5G data on two bands. This is a lot for a European phone, especially one that came to market last year. Sadly, high speed data service is pretty much nonexistent here in the United States, and much of what does exist is on a band this phone can't handle. But will you get EDGE data (and voice) nearly everywhere in the United States and abroad. Indeed, reception in fringe areas is significantly better than my wife's Nokia 6086. I have connected to ATT's HSPDA network in Cincinnati, Indianapolis, Madison, and Minneapolis. I can't connect in Chicago because the network runs on an incompatible frequency there (1900Mhz).Battery life is outstanding, especially for a thin phone.Now lets move on to this phone's weak points -The camera is only 2 megapixels. And it is fixed focus at that. And it doesn't work well in the dark. And there is only one of them [most phones capable of sending video have two - one facing outward and one facing you]. The camera is good enough for me, but I would never put shots from it in the family album.The music player doesn't display album art. No flashy light show either. And you are limited to the built-in speaker or a 2.5mm audio jack (I think it helps 'em keep the phone thin - forget about it and use A2DP if you want headphones). I must admit, however, that I really miss gapless playback. Music loads into the phone very slowly on account of the older 1.5 megabyte per second USB limit.The phone will record video. I have not been able to record video at Nokia's claimed quality (15 fps QVGA). I think I have been lied to. I think Nokia means either 15 FPS or QVGA, but not both at the same time.The phone will play video, even from YouTube, but not at high bitrates.Be prepared for plenty of British spelling in the menus and applications.This phone's idea of fashion is understated basic black. I like it, but then again I am this phones target audience.",4603,0 +4604,"Only lasted a month + +The plastic parts that hold the phone in place just couldn't hold up to my normal use. Within days pieces were breaking, and one month later it won't hold my phone at all.",4604,0 +4605,"Almost exactly what I am looking for. + +This little Bluetooth headset has quite the roster of party tricks up its sleeve. First and foremost is the ability to detach the headphones and use a different set, or plug it up to an AUX-IN on your car stereo for wireless streaming music. Second are the "add-ons" you can install through your Android phone to enable enhanced functionality like seeing e-mail, calendar and Facebook post alerts on the device's little OLED screen. Third is the NFC pairing, which is about as painless as possible (unless your phone is like mine and doesn't specify WHERE exactly the NFC antenna is, then you have to go hunting for it, slowly.) Fourth is the aforementioned OLED screen. It's tiny but sharp and highly readable in indoor conditions; no more fumbling for the phone when you want to see what song you're listening to. Fifth is the built-in FM radio, with RDS. When you tire of your tunes or need to check the news, the FM radio is adequate enough to pull in strong local signals and show artist/song title/station name/info scrolls if your local stations support that feature. Sixth is the light weight. This thing is seriously a featherweight device, especially with the headphones detached.I've only had this unit for a few days, but so far I'm definitely impressed with its functionality. The sound quality from the included ear buds (which come with three sizes of rubber fittings for different sized ears) is OK for casual users. The unit is not *quite* strong enough to adequately power my Sennheiser over-the-ear home 'phones, which is a slight disappointment but not entirely unexpected from such a small mobile device as this.One goofy quirk I've found is that, at least when paired with my HTC Droid DNA, the headset works in two distinct modes. It'll automatically reconnect with my phone when it's in range, but defaults to calls-only mode. To hear music from my phone, I have to manually select the little note icon from the menu on the headset. The instructions imply this will auto-start my music player, but it doesn't do that on my particular phone. Perhaps it's because I have several music players installed, I don't know.Another quirk is that this appears to have some sort of "hearing protection" volume limited turned on by default. When trying to crank out the tunes with my big Sennheisers, I hit a volume limit at around 75% of max, with a little ear icon popping up on the display. Somehow or another I managed to disable that, but I have no idea how. It's not a feature in any of the menus on the device or the companion Android app on the phone.Speaking of settings, under setup on the headset there are just two options. There's a factory reset which is way too easy to do (whoops!) and an undocumented little icon that looks like a rectangle with two arrows. This feature flips the display upside down so you can use the device with the call answer button on the left instead of right of the screen. Very handy.I haven't had it long enough to get an idea of battery life, but after charging the recommended 2.5 hours, I was able to update the firmware, play around with all the features for an hour, then stream two hours of music from my phone without the battery icon dropping even one bar.I'll update the review at some point in the future when I try out call quality, range and get a better idea of day to day life with this promising little headset.",4605,0 +4606,"A little different, but in a good way + +Most belt holsters either fit the naked phone into them tightly or with a clip on top that ends up breaking. This is a little different in that it has a case that protects the outer parts of the phone and when slid into the holster it slides in and you feel and hear a positive sound/feel when it is in place. Nothing loud and it won't disturd a quiet meeting but positive enough to notice.As far as the cover, some say adding a cover onto a phone adds too much girth. The same could be said of this one because it does add a noticable thickness but by keeping the same contour of the extended battery it actually makes the feel lighter, though thicker, and keeps the same ergonomic feel that inspires a confidence that the phone won't be easily dropped from no way to hold it without doing a Vulcan death grip.The actual feel of the case is hard to describe because it feels rubberized yet slick. The carbon fiber weave pattern helps it not feel slippery but when you are used to the rubber, extra grippy feel of the OEM battery cover it can feel a bit disconcerting at first.A drawback ot the cover is mostly due to the phone. The power button is hard enough to find and press without the cover but the ridge along the upper back makes it a little harder. If the power button were not flush with the phone this would be a positive because the ridge would be just high enough to keep from accidental button presses on any other phone. It's not enough of a distraction to take off points but is worth noting.The stand on the cover just pops out of the back, works well, slides in and out easily yet stays in place at either point and doesn't take away from the feel when holding the phone on a call or data session.There are 2 extra holes on the back that I would guess are because the antenna is on the back of the phone but seem to be in the wrong place. I have noticed 0 difference in reception with the cover on, same -dbm as when it is not on.The holster it like any other holster. A holder, a spinning clip that can be a real pain to remove from your belt or pants. It works great if you want to put the whole unit in your pocket and clip it to the outside of the pocket. A positive over many others is the way the case fits snugly, yet comes out easily and deosn't give me the impression that 1 drop will destroy it.The holster also has the same carbon fiber weave pattern and rubberized feel but it seems to have been a waste to do so and, imo, actually takes away from the look.Is it worth $25 after standard s/h? I'll let the buyer decide but I personally think they are all WAY over priced for a piece of plastic made in a foreign country using sweat labor.I'm not going to say ""buy it"" ,""don't buy it"" but if I had to make the purchase again or get something different I would buy this product again.",4606,0 +4607,"slow as molasses in december + +having read the other reviews on this phone i can only conclude that these are either htc or tmobile employees. this phone is no faster than my samsung highlight or behold. it has the worse set up as though they thought they were finished, suddenly thought of something else they could put on there and just threw it in where it would fit. trying to do something as simple as play music is next to impossible. pushing a single music icon should get you some type of noise. instead you get 3 minutes of waiting while the phone reads the SD card. and when i say waiting i mean the phone is frozen, unable to do anything. and then it for some reason decides to double up on every song and play it twice. admittedly i'm no techie, which is why i feel a little more comfortable in complaining about what should be a relatively easy way to watch movies, play music, and make phone calls turns into a 2 day attempt to load, wait, push play, wait, and then get to watch transformers. for example, the manual's table of contents, which you would think might have some sort of explanation on how to use the music player or to watch movies. while this can be figured out, i can't imagine anyone spending $400 on one of these and then having to struggle over how to use it. what amazes me more than how poorly the design of the applications is, is how people can say this is a good, some say great, phone. it's a piece of junk.

Obviously defective.Unfortunately, it was useless...",4611,1 +4612,"T-Mobile tells me that the phone is listed as blocked + +The phone connected for a short while. I took it to three T-Mobile stores, one of which told me the phone was refurbished, although it came in what seemed to be factory packaging. They were unable to make the phone connect. I sent the phone back to Samsung, they told me the phone was fully operational, but they could not connect to T-Mobile, either.I called T-Mobile for the third time, and they told me that the phone was blocked because I was not the owner, and that the phone initially worked because there was a time lag in their blocking system. It appears the phone is either stolen, or the previous owner leased it and is not making payments.Besides the paying for phone service for the last two months, and having a non-working phone, I also lost my apps and data. I have several hundred dollars in a pre-paid account the phone will not connect to, which is disappearing at the rate of $50 a month, so I hope this can be resolved quickly.UPDATEAmazon has been very helpful, and has treated me fairly. My phone is now working.Unitek told me T-Mobile was blocking the phone because I didn't buy it from them. T-Mobile says the phone was blocked because it's stolen. Samsung says the phone is in perfect order.I sent the phone back to Unitek, and they returned it wiped, but working. The IMEI number on the phone's paper label, and the IMEI label on box the phone came in, are different. When the phone came back from Unitek, the IMEI number had been changed internally and did not match either of the other two numbers.Changing IMEI numbers on stolen phones is so common that there is proposed legislation, the ""Mobile Device Theft Deterrence Act of 2013"" that will, if passed, make reprogramming a phone's IMEI a crime punishable by up to five years in prison.More detail. Many Android phones are identified by an IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity) number. When a phone is stolen, a carrier blocks the phone using the IMEI. This can take several months to happen. So, even though you receive a working phone that appears to be new, that doesn't mean it will continue to work.There is a database of stolen phones, the Central Equipment Identity Register. If a device is blacklisted in that database, it won't connect to any network. Consumers do not have access to the database.You may find a phone's original IMEI under the battery. The actual number can often be found in the phone's setup menu. Sometimes dialing *#06# will produce it. If it works, the IMEI will appear when you enter the last #.If you have a similar problem, this may help. T-Mobile's telephone support will not help you unless you can supply your account PIN (Personal Identification Number), which you may not have readily available. It was a problem for me because we were spending most of the winter in Florida to be with my wife's ailing mother. T-Mobile staff at their stores will initially refuse to help without your PIN, but if you present sufficient identification, they should give you the number. Sales staff may be unaware they can do that, but when I asked them to check policy, gave me my PIN.Store personnel will call phone support. T-Mobile's phone support varies widely with respect to training and English fluency, but the store can more easily access a higher tier. For reasons I don't understand, T-Mobil's phone support cannot reliably tell you if your phone has been blocked, but I got that information on the fifth call to them, not including visiting three T-Mobile brick and mortar stores.Store staff will swap your SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card, which will lose anything stored on your old SIM card, but the phone will remain blocked . Before you let that happen, back up your information. With your permission, they will reset your phone to its original state, which loses everything stored on the phone. It does not unblock the phone.Samsung supplies a program, Kies. It will backup some of the information on your Samsung Android phone. It can also be used to update the Android operating system. I strongly suggest you use Kies before you take your Samsung phone to a T-Mobile store.When I add up the cost of the phone, T-Mobile service I couldn't use because the phone wouldn't connect, shipping the phone to Samsung and Unitek, and the apps on it, the phone has cost $630.33 to date. I have no confidence the phone is legal, or will continue to work with the new IMEI.According to an Internet advertisement, T-Mobile will sell me the same phone, no contract, for $463.99, and give me $50 worth of free time, which is $413.99 for the phone.

(owned this Hero for about 2 months)Texting on this POS is incredibly irritating (a lot of times, the phone suggests and utilizes words which have nothing to do with the word you actually want), if you hit the wrong button, it screws up your entire word (and don't even think about turning off the T-9 or suggestive spelling... the keys are so small that texting without suggestions would take a decade).The phone itself is terribly slow, I haven't even downloaded apps for fear that the phone will run EVEN slower. If you try to text quickly or switch between apps, such as from messaging into camera, the thing locks up. I've had problems with the alarm app, too (keep in mind, these are apps that came with the phone)... I have to reset my daily alarms about once per week, since they seem to stop going off after a while. Also, if I'm on a call and the alarm goes off, sometimes the whole phone will lock up and the alarm will continue to chime AFTER I've turned it off. I have nothing to say about the Android apps, except that I don't need to watch TV or movies on my phone (I have a life outside of technology); the apps, in general, would be pretty useless, unless you go on long flights or train rides.Needless to say, I've almost thrown this terrible phone across the room on multiple occasions, just because of its lack of speed and tendency to freeze up during quick-texting. I've had a BB Pearl in the past, which I thought at the time to be a bad phone, but going back and getting a BB again would be a relief right about now... at least the old BB's worked quickly but weren't so quick to suggest useless words.One more thing, the camera on the Hero is horrible! Slow to auto-focus, and pics come out blurry unless you happen to be an inanimate statue or had been born with tripod arms.

I just have to change the angle at which I press.Cons:-Power button hard to get to-no screen protectionIt's not bulky but it's not a ""slim fit"" case either.

Beware, the velcro is of poor quality.",4625,0 +4626,"Highest Quality & Value I Have Ever Found! + +I am just amazed at the sound of this `stereo headset' (not `ear buds'). This is based on the sound from my iPhone 4S. Most equivalent sets give a good high and midrange, but stink with bass. The `Aleratec' manages to really give a solid bass boost and a bass drum feel that is perfectly synced and balanced with the mid and high range tones. The drivers really must be high premium. The acoustic sound and precise bass will make you toss out any other set of ear buds. Only a good headset around your ears can produce a better sound.Unlike other ear buds, the 3.5mm jack is set at a right angle to prevent accidental pull-outs. The bright red cord is flat, not round, so you won't get all tangled up like with typical ear buds; i.e., iPhone ear buds. This is a nice design correction.The in-line microphone is an easy click to switch to phone calls and switching between music and calls is easy and feels intuitive. When a phone call comes in, the sound of voices sound normal; not too tinny or bassy. The `noises isolation' actually works very well with the exclusionary action of outside noises.You know those Apple ear buds that always fall out of your ear? These fits in your ears perfectly without fear of falling out while running or biking. The simply design just works - these inventors know their stuff.The nicely packaged box (this is a great gift for birthdays, holidays or, um, new dates) also comes with extra ear plugs Gels (S, M, L) and a nice black felt bag for all. Compare the price to other headsets or ear bud packages and you'll find that the quality and value is perfect. This company knows how to market the right product with the right price.

But realized that I have to spend $60 to get my phones to charge wirelessly on the powermat.The device is a good concept of charging several devices wirelessly. Unfortunately, it does not deliver out of the box and at a cost of $100 with the perception of wireless, it seems like marketing untruth. For each device that you want to charge wirelessly, you need to buy a custom receiver ($30 each) that slips on the device and then you can lie the device on the powermat to charge. Therefore, you pay $100 for the powermat, and $30 per device. This amounts to $190 (not including tax) to charge 3 devices wirelessly, which removes 2 cables of clutter for charging and now you have a long black mat sitting on your counter with a bunch of devices on it. This lacks the oomph gained for wireless charging in functionality, the expenditure, and the space taken up by this device.Nice concept, but too expensive for the actual functionality of removing cable clutter. This device should have come with at least 2 coupons free to get the custom receivers for the $100 price tag. The dissapointing factor is that you need to really spend $200 to charge 3 devices wirelessly.",4631,0 +4632,"For the price, you can't go wrong! + +No, this isn't the latest and greatest but it also doesn't carry the high price tag of being on the bleeding edge of technology. For the price and what it is, it offers a ton of bang for your buck and I definitely recommend it! I use an iPhone 5S and also had an LG G2 (the superphone sibling of this F6) so I'm used to high end phones - but I really like the F6.Pros:- 4G LTE (compatible with MetroPCS, T-Mobile, and AT&T;, once unlocked)- 1.2GHz dual-core Snapdragon 400 CPU w/ Adreno 305 GPU (definitely midrange, not entry level)- 1GB RAM- 5MP rear-facing camera w/ flash and auto focus, and front facing camera for video chat and 'selfies'- 4.5" qHD IPS LED screen ("IPS" = very wide viewing angles, not seen on cheap phones)- Large removable/replaceable lithium-ion battery and microSD slot for more storage space- "QuickRemote" app w/ infrared sensor to control your TV (mostly a gimmick but still fun!)- Physical home button is easy to use, and also serves as your multi-color service light for notifications (love this!)Cons:- No auto-brightness sensor (you'll have to adjust your brightness manually, not a big deal for most)- Could be faster or have more RAM, but this is a cheap phone!- Only 1.3GB user available memory for apps. I see a lot of people saying that is just utterly unacceptable, which I can see if you load up lots of games and apps.. but that's enough for me. I always use a microSD slot for my music and pictures and I don't download large games or apps to my phone; I download them to my tablet.All in all, a very nice phone for a small price tag. The screen is gorgeous for being on a cheap phone - thanks to the IPS panel - and the screen is just very responsive, which is important on a touch screen phone. It's thin and light, with a large battery. It's rated almost double that of my iPhone 5S! The camera is not top of the line you-can-print-and-frame-it, but will do just fine for Facebook, Instagram, and picture messaging. Call quality and speaker quality is good. When you're in a 4G LTE area, download speeds are just blazing fast. I would NOT buy a new phone without 4G LTE anymore. No, it's not necessary but everything loads instantly.. I like that. Like I said, it could be faster or use more RAM, but for the price, it's a GREAT buy. If you want something fancier, you'll have to open your wallet and step up to something like the LG G2 which is pricey.You'll probably compare this to the newer Optimus L70 also available on MetroPCS at a lower price tag, but you lose 4G LTE and step down to a Snapdragon 200 CPU w/ Adreno 203 CPU. Paying extra for the F6 is well worth it me but to each their own.",4632,0 +4633,"This item is not genuine... + +This iten is a knock off of the original one. it looks like it except for the fact that the cord is shorter and the sound is crappy.",4633,0 +4634,"I BOUGHT TWO BUT I ONLY RECEIVED ONE + +I BOUGHT TWO OF THIS PHONES BY JANUARY 30th AND TODAY IS MARCH 1st AND I HAVE RECEIVED ONLY ONE.

These are very fast results! + +USB devices are becoming essential in many people’s lifestyles. For vehicles that don’t have included USB ports, iClever has made the Clever 18W/3.6A max Dual Port USB Car Charger.▶ Package Contents• iClever Car Charger• Instruction Manual• Warranty Card▶ Specifications• Input: DC12-24V/2000mA (Max)• Output1 (Apple): DC5V/2600mA• Output2 (Android): DC5V/1000mA• Dimensions: 76 x 33 x 24.8mm• Weight: <35g▶ HardwareDespite its large description picture, this device is very small (2.99” x 1.3” x 0.97”), light (1.3 ounces), and comes in black or white. At the top is the connector into your car outlet, with two balls on each side to maintain a stabilized position. On the side is the iClever name and logo, and on the end are two USB ports, one marked Android (DC5V/1A) and Apple (DC5V/2.6A). I wish the ports would be marked with its current setting instead of “Apple” and “Android” because some Android devices require more than 1A to charge. I really like the overall design of this product, but unfortunately it has a very similar design to RAVPower’s car charger. The only difference from the two products is the Apple port current (2.6A) of iClever’s product is higher than RAVPower’s (2.1A).▶ TestingI tested this product with my Honda Odyssey and my Nexus 7 (2013) with a 3950mA battery, running no processes except system apps. I performed two tests on this device, a multimeter test at the start and end, and a fast charge test to calculate the amount this device charges per an hour.Multimeter test:• 43%Current: 1.12AVoltage: 4.98VMax Current: 1.14AMin Voltage to Power Device: 4.90V• 83%Current: 0.71AVoltage: 5.00VMax Current: 0.78AMin Voltage to Power Device: 4.90VThe Nexus 7 takes current according to the battery life. To get 1A at 43% and 0.7A at 83% is a good indicator that this will charge your device fast.Fast Charge Test:Time: Nexus 7 Charge %7:56AM: 43%9:06AM: 83%Nexus 7 Battery Size x Amount Charged = Total Charge3950mA * (0.50) = 1975mATotal Charge / Time (hours) = Charge per Hour1975mA/1.15h = 1717mA per HourThis device charges at 1717mA per an hour, these are amazingly fast results for a car charger, considering my OEM wall charger only charges at approximately 700mA per an hour. These results conclude this charger does indeed charge fast.▶ Final ThoughtsI am very impressed by the speed of charge from this device, as it is capable of charging my Nexus 7 at 1717mA per an hour. Because of these results, I recommend this device to anyone that needs a USB car charger and give this product a 5 star rating. iClever did a very good job making this device.Pros:+ A very small device, tested to charge my device at 1700mA per hour.

Save that for rating the seller. If I hadn't seen so many bad reviews on Amazon for this product, I probably would have ordered it online and saved a bit of money. [Expletive]. Anyway...Pros:-Doesn't add much bulk. In fact I think it adds just enough to make it more comfortable in your hands.-protects the ports very well, while still allowing access to them.-screen protector is a very nice addition.-And the rubber bulges on the side actual make the buttons easier to feel.

I wrote Cel-Fi requesting a return and received a very courteous e-mail reply with suggestions that could help our plight as well as an offer to return it if we weren't ultimately happy.

It was loud enough and clear enough in both directions (I could hear the caller just fine and the caller said I sounded so clear that they couldn't tell I was in the car) and the car-radio-volume attenuator worked perfectly - whenever the iPhone rang or when I placed a call, the car radio's sound diminished to barely audible.HOWEVER - for some reason, about two or three minutes into the conversation, the volume of the hands-free device would simply diminish to the point that I could no longer hear the caller. Also, the caller said that after a couple of moments he could not hear me either. I thought I had just purchased a faulty unit so I returned it and received another fresh one a day later.It sounded equally as well as the first unit, but then the same thing happened with the second one - the volume just dropped to nothing about 2-3 minutes into the conversation.These two devices sounded far better than the Bluetooth units I have tried (two Jabra units and one Motorola) but for some reason didn't work but for a few minutes after connecting.

Screen is sharp and speakers are great.6) Camera is average, videos recording it very good (resolution is not very high but in small size, its quite clean).Cons: Battery life could have been great.We purchased it more than 6 months back. Its all plastic but build quality is good. We have a small baby who mishandles this phone often but there are no issues yet mechanically or cosmetically.If you wish to have a small sized and sleek phone with touch screen, wifi connection to internet, android OS, average camera, you will not go wrong with it.

I have the purple S3 & the wallet matches the phone perfectly. It holds about 10 items in the card slots without being bulky, but you will definitely need a screen protector though.

Like it a lot!!!!",4654,0 +4655,"Best bang for buck. + +With the iPhone and Android touchscreen slabs saturating the smartphone market, I began to wonder if physical controls were going to go extinct. Sure, iOS4, Android 2.2, and WebOS are all fantastic touch-based OS's, but it's refreshing to go back to a D-Pad based world of Nokia E-series phones. Although Symbian S60 3rd is not flashy, pinchy, nor swipy; it is a very stable OS which runs very snappy on modern hardware like the Nokia E5.Pro's:The E5 comes pre-loaded with tons of software including offline GPS navigation and QuickOffice.it also works very well with Google Sync.Cut/copy/paste work just like a PC: Ctrl- X/C/VThe build quality is solid and expensive-feeling.Con:I would easily give this phone a 5-star rating, but I cannot since the LCD's viewing angles are horrible.I wish the screen had a higher resolution..",4655,0 +4656,"Great Product! + +I bought the Celjel cloth to clean my new Android and am now using it on all my electronics, eyeglasses and sunglasses.

Poorly designed if you ask me.",4657,0 +4658,"Superior quality ahead of the rest + +So I have been on the market for a iPhone 5 wallet case for a while. I had previously purchased the Book book for iphone 5 ($59.99)Initially I was extremely happy with it for the first week, However when taking a closer look, I noticed it started falling apart and would not stay closed when sitting on a desk, The heavy plastic used to hold the iphone was covered in a textured rubber and was peeling off...it was a real eye sore for me as this does not qualify for quality workmanship...you could also see the glue they used in various spots (oversprayish).Now on to the point about the P&Q; Little black pocket book... As soon as I opened the case and held it..it felt solid and smelt amazing...lol. Inserted the iphone and it was held firmly in place with there awesome wood design. I am able to hold my credit,debit,gym and drivers license along with 3 twenty dollar bills comfortably. the elastic is a definite helper as it would not stay shut otherwise, tried with three cards no bill and it could almost stay shut without elastic assistance. Once again the quality of the leather and wood are excellent.Three things I thing P&Q; could improve on are the number of cards the wallet is supposed to hold, it has three slots so three cards...however I believe there is room for one more slot behind the ID slot as my drivers license sits very deep in that slot...in fact that is where i keep the fourth card.I am still getting used to the idea of having the elastic on the case as personally it feels better without it, I am still getting used to it. in time I think the daily usage will wear the wallet in nicely and it could do without the elastic... plus looks sleeker. Eventually I may snip it off. Future improvement for P&Q; may be a removable elastic for those that do and don't like it.The Fake Book mark tab at the bottom is a nice touch to the case aesthetically. It has gotten in the way when trying to remove the lightning cable at night as I seem to grab both the tab and cable... not being able to pull it out...lol not a big deal at all.One more thing... I Can't believe more people have not purchased this case!! It is my replacement wallet now.I hope P&Q; do come out with more color variations in the future for their products... black on black please...or some brighter colors for that matter, may be some other materials as well.I love this case an believe I will use it till my next phone purchase in 2 years.

Further, I prefer prepaid to contracts service because it makes good financial sense although I can certainly afford the either. I have had a long standing relationship with several contract phone carriers although Boost Mobile remains the best prepaid phone service.

I rated the phone with 5-stars despite the challenges associated with finding a better after-market quality case.",4660,0 +4661,"I like it with few reservations, so far... + +I have had my MDA for only about one week. So far no complaints. Becoming use to its way of doing things does require a bit of patience. It's not as easy to use as a PC, but the Windows Mobile V5.0 OS does in many ways make the MDA seem very familiar. After several hours of use it is becoming second nature and intuitive.I had no problem installing the Opera browser to replace/augment Internet Explorer. I have had absolutely no problems syncing to my Toshiba laptop via USB. It worked the first try right out of the box.

Branching from the connections screen is another screen that effortlessly scans for all available WiFi networks. From my location it found six or eight available non-T-Mobile WiFi networks.I have not yet experienced any power problems. The exterior buttons are designed to prevent inadvertent button mistakes. The menus offer several options to turn off any features that may not presently be in use such as WiFi, and Bluetooth. There are also options to blank the screen and further throttle-back the device for periods of inactivity. Amateur Radio operators (Hams) always carry a spare battery.

When I saw there was a newer version, I decided to go for it. That was a mistake. If you've read the reviews of the black version here on Amazon, you can get the gist of the experience. When the phone (iPhone 4S in my case) is close to the headset - in my shirt pocket or on my desk while I'm working - it's great. The sound quality is good and the volume is very acceptable. My collar size is 20"" and these fit ny neck just fine.BUT - holy cow - the cutting in and out is awful! If the phone is in my pocket, or I get 10 feet away and turn my head, the sound cuts out. In the car, my phone sits on the passenger seat usually charging. If I'm on a call and turn my head to check my side mirror, for example, the sound cuts out. I, too, contacted LG and they told me they had no reports of problems. I directed them to the Amazon reviews and the reviews on their own website (which I saw after purchasing) and was told they were not ""official"" and thus ignored.I do like the style and feel of the headset, so I am probably going to buy a pair of the HBS 700's to try out and see how that goes.The LG HBS 730 is definitely not recommended.",4664,0 +4665,"A great shell for your 'Droid. + +This is the third shell that I have gotten for my Droid, and it is a keeper!First, the set up:When I bought the phone, I got the Body Glove case that the Verizon store had available. It is an excellent shell - it fits well, has great grip, is rugged and provides very good protection for the Droid. My only real problem with it is that it is BULKY. It adds significantly to the size of the Droid both physically and visually. I do notice this bulk in my pocket too. It even made it somewhat difficult to remove from my pocket. I wanted something not so bulky that might still provide some protection for the phone when I drop it.Next, I bought a cheap shell that is similar to the Seidio. It was OK, but far from perfect. The big improvement was the lack of bulk, but... The back was warped and did not quite snap on completely. The front was OK, but broke after a few weeks of use. There HAS to be a better shell out there.Now for the Seidio...I have done quite a bit of research on-line and there is a lot of praise for Seidio. There were some concerns for the Seidio Innocase Surface, as apparently some of the first production run was not quite right. It was reported that the top did not fit as it should. As I understand it, Seidio replaced the defective parts promptly and without any haggling or hesitation. Great customer service and attitude. In spite of the possible fit issues, I decided to try the Seidio Innocase Surface out for myself. Since I have an extreme aversion to paying full price for anything, I shopped around and found a good deal here on Amazon. I paid my money (not cheap, but the best rarely ever is), waited a few days and...Nice case!! Nicely packaged, easy to remove from packaging (I wish more vendors would package this well) and good looking. Of course, I promptly removed the Body Glove shell from the phone and started to fit the Seidio to it. The first shock (yes, SHOCK) was when I tried the front piece. I looked at it and determined the correct orientation. There is a small notch in the bottom end for the microphone and an indentation at the top for the power/lock button. I placed it over the Droid and it practically installed itself! REALLY... I aligned it on the phone and just barley touched it and it snapped on. That was too easy. I looked closely and it looked to be in place. I pulled at a bit and it did not come off. Yes, the fit was PERFECT and it locked in place with incredible ease. Just to be sure, I removed it and re-installed it. Still just as easy - just lay it in place and it snaps on with very little pressure. No, it does not come off as easily as it goes on. It does not come off unless deliberately removed. The back is a perfect fit too, but does require just a little more pressure to get it sapped on.This shell is quite slim. Much less bulky than the Body Glove, not much more so than the bare Droid. Nice fit in the hand, nice fit in the pocket. It has a nice soft feel to the surface even though it is plastic, not rubber. The grip is not as good as the rubber surface of the Body Glove, but it is similar to the bare Droid. It looks good, fits PERFECTLY and handles well. My biggest quibble with it is that it is not quite as easy to use the volume buttons. It does not block the volume rocker, but is close enough at the ends to make using the volume rocker feel a bit awkward compared to the other cases I have used that have a little bit more clearance at the ends of the volume rocker switch. I guess that I am just used to pressing on the very ends of the rocker switch. Easy to get used to, and a very minor quibble. This shell does not interfere with any of the other keys, switches or buttons on the phone. There is no binding or rubbing when sliding the keyboard out or in. You could hardly ask for a better design and fit.Last but not least, after four weeks of use, this shell still looks almost pristine. There are no scratches on the surface, and just a few minor nicks that you can feel and have to look closely to see on the exposed edge of the case at the bottom end of the phone. I find this to be pretty impressive, as my pocket is not exactly the friendliest place to reside - what with all of the other things that get stuffed in there on a regular and irregular basis.To sum it up: If you want a shell to protect your Droid from daily use and mild abuse, but don't want the bulk of some SERIOUS armor, DO go ahead and pay the money for the Seidio Innocase Surface. The others may be cheaper, but what I tried was not worth it. Just skip right past the other slim look-alikes and me-toos and get the Seidio - you will not be disappointed.",4665,0 +4666,"HORRIBLE PHONE DO NOT BUY + +this is a horrible phone, do not waste any money on it.

I'm not going to return it because I'll need a case until I find a new one, but I'm in the search of a better case immediately after I finish this review. Also the power button is hard to push because the case is so thick the little plastic bridge that goes over the power button makes it very hard to push while not looking at your phone.

However, there was static when the phone was on my belt and the headset was in my ear on the same side as the phone.The gel earpiece is wonderfully comfortable and the 640 is very lightweight. The earpiece audio quality is great and the volume was very good.However, everyone I talked to commented that I either had a cold or was on an echoey speaker phone. No one thought the audio quality was good.Plantronics tech support confirmed that this audio quality is inherent in the design. The pocket charger is really great. It gives me a place to put the headset when not in use and it charges the headset between usage...very nice.I really wish Plantronics would have put more effort into improving the audio quality.",4671,0 +4672,"Disappointed. + +I didn't realize it was a sticker on the case.

When I contacted the seller I was told that this single cable is usually purchased as a replacement and that the customer usually has the disc. He was nice and refunded my purchase price and allowed me to keep the cable due to the confusion.

It also arrived quite late.",4678,0 +4679,"The Best Affordable Tablet out there. + +I've had my T-mobile Galaxy Tab for a few months now and have had enough time to gauge how it compares to other tablets available now. Although the 7"" Galaxy tab (the original, not the new 10"" ones that just came out) was one of the very first mainstream tablets that came out, it is still surprisingly one of the best tablets out there... definitely considering it's price range. It is not obsolete and for those who do not need the latest, cutting edge tablet on the market, it should be more than sufficient for your needs. Some things that make this tablet great (that you may not realize) is how sturdy it is built. It's screen is made of ""gorilla glass"" which is glass that is specially tempered to make it virtually unbreakable. The body (chasis) feels really well built and sturdy too. Another thing that sets it apart is the gorgeous screen. The screen is pretty high resolution for it's size, has great contrast ratio which makes the colors pop, has great color reproduction (can display a huge gamut of colors), and is vibrant and very bright. I hardly have the brightness setting at the highest setting because it is too bright! In fact, it looks bright at half the brightness setting. Other things that make it a great tablet is the ability to use it as a wifi only tablet (no cellphone company service needed), micro-Sd expansion slot, great capacitive touch screen, swype keyboard functions, and blue-tooth functions. The advertised battery life of up to 7-hours is actually a reality too. It can actually be much longer if you primarily use it as a web-browser too.The 1ghz processor is actually pretty darn fast. I know there are dual-core tablets out there now, but the 1ghz processor on this thing can handle most anything. Unless you are using a very detailed 3D intensive app, the processor doesn't show any signs of slowdown. I haven't really run into an App or game that it struggles to run. It runs the 3d racing game Asphalt just fine and HD video runs very smooth too. I would've liked there to be a HDMI video out port on it, but I'm not really sure how much I'd use it even if it was on it. All in all, I have very little bad to say about this tablet. It would be nice if Samsung made it easy to upgrade to the latest Android OS... I'm still running 2.2 which was pre-installed.NetFlix!!!:One of my complaints before was that it doesn't run ""Netflix"" but this is no longer a problem. You can indeed run ""Netflix"" on your Tab... and it doesn't even have to be ""Rooted"". Just google for the andriod program/setup file called ""com.netflix.mediaclient-1.apk"", download it to your computer and move it somewhere onto your Galaxy Tab. Then using any free file explorer program (available from android market) you just select the file and install on your Galaxy Tab (from your Tab).Here are some quick Pros and Cons for reference:Pros:-Very well built and sturdy (including screen made from ""Gorilla Glass""-Bright and Vibrant Screen. Looks as good as the screen on the iPad 1 in my opinion.-Nice portable size and very light-expandable micro-sd slot. Very easy to move files to and from the Tab... copy and paste from computer using windows!-1Ghz processor works great for most of your needs... I haven't had a 3D game it couldn't run yet.-Video runs really well, even HD files. It plays Divx native so just drag and drop on to the tab and it plays it!-Up to 7 hours of battery life as advertised! Very nice when you're stuck on a long flight and wanna watch more than one movie!-You can use it as a wifi only tablet, no need to get service through T-Mobile.. or Verizon for that matter (see notes below)-Nice Mp3 player interface. I like the default pictures it uses when you don't have cover art.-Capacitive touch screen works great, and Swype keyboard works awesome too!-Built-in Blu-tooth, GPS, and Wifi! I had a Blu-tooth keyboard at one time and it worked great on the Tab.-Runs Netflix Now! See section on Netflix (above) if you missed it!Cons:-No HDMI port. This would be nice but ultimately I don't think most people would even use it.-No dual-core processor. This would be nice for very 3D graphic intensive games and better multi-tasking, but not really a must-have.Conclusion:As you can see, the positives greatly exceed the negatives. This tablet was designed, conceived, and built well. That's why it is still a great tablet even when compared to the new tablets out on the market now which have dual-core processors and HDMI output ports. I noticed that the new 10"" Galaxy Tabs no longer have an micro-SD expansion port like these 7"" Tabs do. Keep all of this in mind before you buy a Tablet. In my opinion, this tablet is the best bang for the buck without sacrificing quality, reliability and sturdiness. If you are looking for a high quality and relatively affordable, Non-Apple tablet, look no further... this is it.Notes:If you have a T-mobile Tab, you can always use it as wifi only without getting service. For those of you who have a Verizon Galaxy Tab. When you reset the Verizon Galaxy Tab, it will prompt you to ""Activate"" it with Verizon before you can use it. I'm sure there are those of you who want to use it as a ""Wifi only"" Tablet without having to spend money to ""activate"" it. There is a trick you can use to by-pass the activation process and not have to go through Verizon. It's very simple... here it is:Turn the Tablet on, On the Volume rocker on the right side... hit up ONCE, down TWICE, up THREE times, and lastly down FOUR times. It will then ask if you want to bypass activation. After the process, you should be able to use it as a wifi only tablet. You can always add service with Verizon later! I didn't come up with this trick, I am merely sharing it with you here!I hope this review is helpful... if it is, any feedback is welcome. Thanks!",4679,0 +4680,"Best of Both worlds. + +Let me start by saying this phone is amazing.This is my 6th windows phone in a span of 1 year. I keep phone maximum for 3 months and sell it with good value. Earlier i had Lumia 1020 which is amazing phone too. I was in market for a mini ipad.Then i came across this phone . So i thought why not buy Lumia 1520 which can be used as a mini tablet and phone.I have no regrets in buying this phone. Below is my experience with this phone.Form Factor: Yes phone is little big. As this is a phablet category, the size is expected.We cant have a SUV's room in a compact car. So the benefits of large screen is obvious. Also at the same time there will be some inconvinience.Both Hands: Yes most times you need to use both hands. For instance, you cant use back button without using 2nd hand. But i got used to it.After couple weeks ownership , i dont feel this as a inconvinience any more. It matters most in a CAR where you need to handle the phone single handed. So all the time i mount my phone and i can use single hand.Screen: Screen is great and retina. But if you use phone screen without any protector then the screen is very slippery.Camera: Didnt test much but looks as good as lumia 1020 with less zoom.Slim. This phone is very slim when compared to lumia 1020. there is no bulge on the back so it sits flat.I se phone for movies at gym. Lumia 1020's camera bulge was always a chalange at gym. As 1520 sits flat, it is more secure.Speed: I dont think i see much speed improvement over 1020. Though it is quad core ,system still takes time to repsond on certain apps.I believe the speed has to do with particular apps then the phones hardware.When i switched to 1520 ,i thought some lagging in 1020 will be gone in 1520/. but certains apps still lagg.Lanyard: I miss Lanyard of lumia 1020 in this phablet. As this is a big phone, Nokia must have Lanyard option. To remedy this, i added my own . I used incipio air case and added Lanyard to the speaker grill. It works great as the case is strong.Speakers:It is almost same as lumia 1020 speaker with 10-15% improvement in volume. The clarity is same. Both speakers are great. Ear piece could be louder. I dont know but Nokia Lumia series suffers with low ear piece volume.Red Lumia. Red is slippery as every one suggested. Incipio case took care of it.Tiles: Extra column for tiles is a plus. Now one can see more information without moving the screen.Side Keys: Side keys are too flat. It is quite difficult to find volume keys and lock keys .It could be better like lumia 1020.Phone in public: Yes it is eye catching. It doesnt look good if you talk on this phablet in public. But who cares.when Iphone first came, it looked too BIG. but it has become new NORM now. So people will get used to it as phablets become more popular.Also it keep you out of crowd.Pocket: It easily slides into pocket. In my formals and jeans i have no issue in sliding the phone.

As the description mentions, this set includes protective shielding for the front watch face, the entire back side (left/right and raised center) as well as the actual sides and 4 buttons. It also includes a cleaning cloth and applicator spray. They really mean it when they say full body protective shield.Application was quick and easy as long as you follow the instructions online (YouTube video). The shielding comes in different sections/pieces as opposed to a single large protective film you would apply to a phone or tablet. It does take a few hours to apply all of the sections. You definitely want them to properly dry separately. Instructions suggest 12 hours of leaving the device off to let dry so the adhesive sticks. I also suggest that you remove the watch bands before installing the shield to make handling the pebble easier.What really surprised me was how clear the shield is once applied. It is barely visible which I find to be a HUGE plus.

I expected that seeing the case in a store demo phone. The case's ability to act as a stand is also not reliable: it collapses easily unless you very carefully fold it (even then it collapses on occasion). but the real problem is that the case is made from very brittle, hard plastic. It protects the back of the phone, but within 2 months I had to change the sim, and took the case off for the first time, and one of the four corners that hold it broke off despite being very careful. then another corner tag broke 3 weeks later. the case is now useless in less than 3 months. It was very pretty and nice while it worked, but not for long. It should be made of a more flexible plastic/rubber compound (like many other cases).",4684,0 +4685,"Excellent aesthetics, poor implementation. + +The Ballistic HC case I received for my Samsung Galaxy S3 case isn't exactly what I expected. The case itself certainly does offer your device excellent protection from drops, and if that were the only consideration it'd be getting 5 stars. The look and feel of the case is excellent as well, and it clips onto the phone very securely.The downside of the case is that for some reason dust is allowed to travel under the screen protector and rest against the glass. I'm not exactly sure why this is, but in the two days I used this case I found it to be a constant problem. Because the dust is resting between the glass and the cover, using the phone can potentially result in scratching the glass surface. This requires constant maintenance. Taking the case back apart to clean the glass is a pain, because the phone clips in so securely that removing the case actually seems to damage it. You have to pry the case off from multiple points, and doing so tends to bend and warp the front cover. I don't trust this case to last me very long before something breaks.The cover itself doesn't seem to hinder my use of the screen much; There is a small gap that you have to push through, but not much. The real problem is that the cover collects fingerprints very easily, and the prints are very hard to wipe off. Even with freshly washed hands the cover soaks up the oils from your skin like a sponge. I found this very distracting.I did choose to use this phone with the outer cover removed, because even with my large hands the outer cover was just too bulky. I felt like I couldn't get a good grip on the phone while I was using it without using both hands. The inner cover was fine, and looked great, but while using the inner cover only with the belt clip I found there is a gap around the entire phone that is just asking for snags and dirt collection. It was also harder to snap the phone into place due to the phone not sitting snugly on all sides; you kind of had to "find" the attachment point. This was mildly irritating.Also, while not a problem exclusive to this case, I found that the high level of indentation on the front of the case did cause me issues pressing the back and menu buttons and dragging the notification panel down. Granting I have large fingers, I found that it was more trouble than it was worth in the long run. Often times it would take me three or four attempts to "grab" the notification panel.Overall this is a conceptually very nice case, but simply not practical for every day use.

Buyer Beware! + +I've heard several commendations of Otterbox's famed cases and I was very excited to find out that Amazon is selling them for a very good price. Considering cellphone cases are being produced for a ridiculously small fraction of the final selling cost, I have no qualms about saving the money, particularly when they're all being made in China as it is. The Otterbox Commuter is lauded in numerous reviews in online forums and tech magazines as a stout, decent case for the average Joe. It's hardy enough for small disasters, durable enough for daily use, and comes in a decent variety of colors. After reading numerous reviews regarding this particular case, it struck me as incredibly odd that there seemed to be a common theme of Amazon selling hit or miss counterfeit Otterbox cases. Amazon has been my preferred seller for years, having been burned on a few separate occasions by sellers that weren't as powerful or as scrupulous as Amazon. I decided to purchase the case anyway, trusting that if I at least purchased it via Amazon, I would have the ability of relying on customer service to resolve any issues. I triple checked that Amazon was my seller. I was set to purchase the Envy Green/Gray case when I noticed right at checkout that my seller was NOT Amazon as I specifically had selected, but rather someone by the name of Quan Tian (or something of the like). It should be noted that a number of people purchasing cases complained that although they bought from Amazon directly, their counterfeit case came in a dirty shipping bag from Hong Kong! I'm not sure if this is even possible to do, not being particularly tech savvy, but I'm wondering if it's at all possible that this Tian character has managed to make it appear that a person is purchasing from Amazon directly and that it's only visible right before checkout in the fine print beneath the item's purchase price who the seller indeed actually is? If this is actually what is happening, it would make sense that some people wound up thinking that somehow Amazon was selling counterfeit cases and shipping them from Hong Kong (If I received a package from Hong Kong after making a purchase on Amazon, personally, I'd be a little suspicious something shady was going on unless I knew for certain the seller was located there!). I saw the error, deleted the item, went back to it's page, clicked order again, and when I went to check out, Amazon was listed as the seller! I don't have any idea how this could have happened. I emailed customer service to alert them of possible fraudulent activity and I'm waiting to see what is shipped to me. If Amazon ships out a tried and true Otterbox case (which I'm fairly certain is what I'll receive), buyers beware!

It turned out that the metal part of the micro-USB receptacle had come apart in the seam, and eventually came off of the circuit board completely. I wound up taking it apart to see if I could re-solder, but one side was obstructed by chipset/housing. No part of the casing or phone's internals to help support the USB port and its only held in by (4) very small soldering points and (2) slightly larger ""epoxy?"" points. Phone being RMA'd (luckily) by vendor. This after 2 years of no issues with microUSB, and bulky miniUSB-to-microUSB adapter, on my Moto Q.That said, I like this phone for many of the reasons already stated. One other feature which may not have been mentioned, is that you can dial back the power consumption of the WiFi radio. I just came from the ""DROID"" and posted my thoughts here:[...]As mentioned, the calendar was limited in options for setting up ""recurring events"" however I was able to sync my Outlook calendar from my PC, which manages my Comcast POP3 account, via the Nokia PC sync software. Phone seemed really stable, but again, not very many apps available to mess it up (a la the DROID). I'm not sure why someone said there are no ""Notifications"", there are multi-colored LEDs and ""pop-ups"" for the respective notifications...though it would be nice to have something persistent in the ""status"" bar by the ""clock"".Having ""highlight-to-copy-and-paste"" is really easy (just press and hold), along with a mouse pointer, are great features. Its also great to have Flash support, and I though I'd finally be able to listen to XM Radio via my online account. While the web pages render quickly and properly, the media player itself is not compatible, and the only thing which does not render properly. I'm not sure if there is a workaround for that, and wonder if it will be a recurring issue on other sites. I just wish there was a search app comparable to that of Windows' ""Live Search""...didn't have time to search for alternatives, or if ""Live Search"" would run on 900.Overall, having the N900 feels like having a Ferrari F430 Competition, but they only installed 1st gear. ""For me"", all the basics are handled, and handled fairly well, but given the lack of apps (specifically Sling or Hava Player, and LED flashlight) and my inability go get Vonage account working with the native SIP client, I'm in the waiting game like many others. Outside of that, I just wish call volume were at least 50% higher for both earpiece and speaker. My Moto Q is much higher in both respects vs. the 900. Although my fellow co-worker, also a VoIP engineer, stated that Nokia has native noice cancelling which raises volume on an ""as needed basis"", to compensate for surroundings. I also thought the resistive screen would be a deal breaker, but again, compared to the DROID, its much more accurate, and more forgiving in that it doesn't open what's not intended. I'm eagerly awaiting my replacement.",4697,0 +4698,"Disappointed + +The case looks pretty and all, although I asked for a speeded shipping but it came in a week, which got me really upset.

The color is amazing - in some lighting it looks like a dark green-blue; other times it beams bright blue. I have to admit, sometimes I find myself just staring at it.One bit of advice I can offer - go all in! If you move to Hotmail, Skydrive, Office (which does have free online Office apps like Google Docs, btw - great for sharing and collaboration), Bing, and Zune (get the Zune Pass!! You will not regret it), you will discover just how powerful, useful and integrated the OS really is.Link your contacts' various accounts together (Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, etc), and you will find out how amazing the People Hub is. You can make groups, pin contacts to the Start screen etc. Very cool.If you use Skype, you won't find it in the Marketplace, but is available as a beta app here (link will open the app in the marketplace on your phone) - zune://navigate/?appid=c3f8e570-68b3-4d6a-bdbb-c0a3f4360a51Did I mention you should try Zune Pass?? There is a feature called SmartDJ that will generate a playlist of music that is similar to any song, artist, or album. I always have trouble discovering new music, and this feature really does wonders for me finding different artists (it works without the Zune Pass, but you need it if you want to play music that you don't already own).The Nokia apps are also pretty stellar. I like Nokia Drive a lot - shows speed limits and can warn you if you are going to fast (you can decide how much over to have it warn you at). The Transit & Maps apps are also wonderful (if you are in a big city). Saved my butt once by getting me home from the middle of nowhere after the commuter rail stopped running. Though some feedback on the camera is lackluster (I think it is fine), the Nokia Creative Studio is awesome at fixing up photos - it also has a really cool panorama feature that stitches four photos together into a landscape. If you are into filter effects, they are there, too.Note - if getting a new email address through Hotmail, you can choose an ""@live.com"" domain extension; which I like because it is shorter to type and easier to share. If you are reluctant about Hotmail - don't be. These days it is perhaps the most feature-rich email service out there. The ""Sweep"" feature is spectacular at helping you keep your inbox tidy!",4700,0 +4701,"Good Product, No Instructions + +The product itself is good. As others have written, it might not protect your iPod Touch 4G from a fall on a hard surface, but it will keep it nice and safe in a purse/backpack/pocket. It's sleek and does not add much weight or bulk to a product whose appeal is its small size and weight. The reason I rated it so low is that I am very disappointed that it lacked instructions, and I had to throw away 1/2 of my purchase because of it.There are really two parts to this product:1) The semi-rigid hard plastic shell that wraps around the back and sides of the iPod. This part fits perfectly, and has holes in exactly the right spots - the bottom receptacle for the USB plug, the top on/off switch, the side volume, and the rear camera. This part is pretty easy to snap on (despite the lack of instructions), and once it is on, it's not going anywhere, unless you purposely want to remove it.2) The clear plastic screen protector. This part seems like it probably works great if you know how to apply it correctly (which I didn't). It seems to be the right size and has two holes in the right places - one for the bottom button and one for the front facing camera. The camera hole is of particular importance because the previous iPod Touches and iPhones did not have this camera, so the screen protectors meant for the earlier devices will not have the second hole.So why does it get only three stars? I basically ruined the clear plastic screen protector while trying to apply it because I didn't know what I was doing, and the product lacks instructions. The protector itself comes 'sandwiched' between two other pieces of plastic, and it's not immediately obvious which piece of plastic is the product and which is the packaging (at least it wasn't to me). I ended up putting the actual product down on my kitchen table, thinking it was trash, and it got a bunch of dust and debris on it. When I figured it out and tried putting it on my iPod, all of the dirt caused a bunch of bubbling.You might say this is my ignorance, which is true... but a product should have instructions, and this one did not. In the meantime, I have seen lots of other reviews of people getting confused with these plastic covers (offered directly by other sellers) even with good instructions, so I don't think I'm the only one.So now I have to shell out another $10.00 for a three-pack of the clear covers.

I also installed a small shelf in front of the panel antenna where I keep my phone when I'm home. I tried multiple indoor antennas and this one works the best for me. Excellent product, highly recommended if you don't mind using your phone directly in front of it!",4707,0 +4708,"*Completely* resolved any qualms about battery life for Thunderbolt + +Let me summarize this review by first saying that if you are looking to spend money on a battery solution for your phone, this product is GREAT! (If you don't want to spend any money, then you need to keep using your carrier to get fresh batteries every so often--tell them it takes 2 days to charge with the phone off, and they'll replace it).I bought this product after 2 stock Verizon-supplied batteries were ""killed"" by my Thunderbolt. By ""killed"", I mean the batteries bloat and swell. When this happened, the battery life would jump randomly between 100% and 0%. Like, start at 100%, then after 20 minutes it's at 60%, then it dies. Then I turn it back on and it's at 85%. Then it dies. Etc. Also when it bloats, the back cover does not make proper antenna connections, so the signal would jump between 4G, and 1X/No Service all the time. All Completely random. So after the second time this happened, I decided to look for an alternative solution. I stumbled upon this item, and thought for the price, I'll give it a shot.One thing I should mention is that I am a moderate user of my phone. I usually have about 5 hours of screen time a day. Also, it's not (at the time I purchased this item) rooted, or overclocked or anything. And I used to use stock batteries, chargers, everything.Another note about this product in particular is that the so-called user manual is not very informative. For example, it says the light will go from red to blue when charging, but it doesn't mention the pink->purple phase in between. Make sure the light is completely blue, with no read hue to it if you want to fully charge the battery. Also, there are 4 pegs--two inner pegs with contacts, and two outer pegs without contacts. The outer pegs, I've learned, are to keep the battery from rotating when it's in the charger. So if the contacts are on the right side, slide the left outer peg all the way to the left, and vice-versa. It's not really an issue, but there was no mention of it in the manual, and at first, I thought ""Why are there two extra pegs without contacts for charging??""Anyway, now, for the actual review--I received the batteries and universal charger. I plugged each battery into the universal charger, and charged them fully. I then placed the first battery into my phone. I used my phone heavily that day in order to fully discharge the battery. It got about 8 hours of life. I then removed the dead battery, put the other charged battery into the phone, and put the dead one in the universal charger. It took about 3-4 hours to charge each dead battery. Again the second battery got 8 hours. I first thought, darn, this isn't much better than the stock batteries in terms of life. But, after doing this full-charge/full-discharge cycle a few times, I was getting 24+ hours of life out of each charge (the most I got with this setup was 42 hours!). This is way better than the stock batteries, which would usually give me 18 to ""maybe"" 24 hours on each charge.So I am very pleased with the battery life, and overall stability of these batteries. Another thing I really enjoy is the ability to simply swap the dead one with the full one when the phone dies. I think I plugged the actual phone into the wall charger once since I've had these batteries. I just use the external charger to keep the spare one charged. Also when the phone dies, it forces me to ""reboot"" it when I swap the battery. This is a very healthy practice for any Android phone, as it will kill any apps that are lingering in the background, periodically drawing battery power even though you aren't using it.Finally, I should note that once I had been using these batteries for some time, I also rooted my Thunderbolt, and installed a custom kernel that allows me to both overclock the phone (make the CPU run faster/hotter), as well as undervolt the CPU, which means it draws less power from the battery than it would running at the same speed on the stock kernel. Since I've done this, I consistently get 2+ days out of each charge! This kind of battery life to me was unheard of with the stock setup.So again, overall, I am extremely pleased with this item.

Now I think I got the biggest bargain on Amazon.I bought this package, which sounded pretty good: 3 batteries and a charger for $10 less than a Samsung battery. Although some reviews were cautious or critical, I didn't care if the batteries were crappy and the charger was a piece of junk. I just wanted that an 3-4 hours from time to time, and this kit looked to provide it.What I got was an outstanding bargain. Simply outstanding.The 3 batteries each provided more than 12 hours of power -- on their first charge. Nearly as good as the stock battery that came with the phone for its first few charges. Most batteries increase their capacity after a few charges, so this bodes well.No, they don't have NFC like the stock battery. I have never used any NFC features and don't figure to do so. Do you?The charger is neat and compact. The batteries snap into place quite positively and it lights up to show proper installation. Light turns blue when charge is done. The light is so bright I covered it over with black tape: enough light escapes to do the trick.The charger is clearly a trickle charger. It takes 8 hours more or less to charge a battery. But you now have 3 new batteries -- and your original -- to play with. With four batteries to cycle, you should never be without power.I recommend this package whole-heartedly. One of the best bargains I have ever purchased.UPDATE: On its second charge one of these ""crappy"" batteries lasted more than 24 hours.UPDATE2: This item has just had its price lowered to $10, making it an even more outstanding bargain.UPDATE3: I paid $16 and thought I got a bargain. I just saw that the price has been reduced to $8.99.

Through standard use, debris and particles (dust, sand, etc.) have accumulated between the back of my iphone 5, and the inside of the case. As you would expect, while the case is on the phone, it is difficult to tell that anything is building up inside. The particles (especially some sand) that ended up in the case caused significant scratching to the aluminum body of my iPhone. While I can see this being a potential issue with any phone case of this style, it is very disappointing to have a protective case actually cause damage to the phone. If you buy this case, probably a good idea to inspect the inside of the case on a regular basis.I am very happy with this mount, it was extremely easy to install on my daily commute bike. The rubber bands hold the mount securely to the stem of my handlebars. The mount is low profile and unobtrusive when not in use. Most of my riding is on paved roads, so aside from a few potholes and curbs, I haven't really been able to rattle the case to see how well it will stay attached, but based on my basic riding needs it seems very stable.The Quadlock case that is required for mounting the iPhone 5 isn't the prettiest case out there, but it isn't terrible. Well constructed, easy to access all of the function buttons on the iphone. Slightly bulkier than I'd like, but comfortable in the hand.Mounting the iphone on the stem is extremely easy and convenient. I like the flexibility of just being able to hop off my bike and remove my phone without any hassle. This is probably the best feature of the mount.My only major issue with this mount is that it is absolutely not water proof. The plastic cover can be thought of as a splash guard at best, protecting your phone from sweat, mist, maybe dust and dirt. This may be obvious due to all of the exposed openings in the under body of the case, but this will definitely not protect your iPhone from any serious amount of rain or water. Keep this in mind if you're looking for an all weather solution.Overall I am happy with this, and would recommend to anyone looking for a solid mount for casual/commute riding. Like many iPhone accessories, I would say that this unit is overpriced for what it is. $50 seems like a more reasonable price for this, but that being said, I couldn't find a mounting system/case that looked like a better option based on my requirements.",4719,0 +4720,"saved me from buying a new blackberry storm + +My blackberry storm stopped charging the batteries. At first I thought the battery was bad. Three batteries and a new charger later, I figured out it was the phone. Bought the external battery charger.

A very inexpensive solution.",4720,0 +4721,"Happy with the newtrent power pack ultra + +Overall, I am pleased with the newtrent power pack ultra. Uses so far include hiking, dual sport motorcycle riding and day-to-day use. It took approximately 5 hours to recharge an iPad during occasional use and can recharge an iPhone within an hour or two simultaneously. I have not been able to time how long it takes to recharge the ultra back using solar power (goal zero nomad 7). It was out half the day and got 1-2 bars back in power supply. I used the power pack to recharge canon digital camera, garmin, GoPro, contour camera, AA and AAA batteries for lights, etc. seems very durable and is easy to carry. It is only slightly larger than an iPhone 5. Sometimes the port covers are hard to get back into place and they don't swing open enough to fit all USB chargers but that has not been a significant hindrance. I have not dunked it in the water yet but it did well in plenty of dust and dirt. Very happy with the newtrent power pack ultra.",4721,0 +4722,"A nice idea gone awry + +These things work well - meaning they do what they say they'll do - for a little while and then break. The company has a totally dysfunctional "customer service" set up and all they can do, have months of very slow back and forth is send you a new one which also will break. They definitely do not work while running or exercising or any strenuous activity. These things should not have been brought to market.",4722,0 +4723,"All I expected and more + +I give this little device a 5 because it's one of a handful of technical gadgets that's got so many features in such a compact design.First of all, it's a phone with a lot of PDA type features including email (Outlook, Mobile Windows, etc.), calendar and such. It's probably not the best device to be conducting business from - you're probably in search of a PDA that's also a phone. This is just the opposite, it's a phone and PDA second.The mobile Windows allows you to view video and listen to mp3. It does support memory expansion, which is perfect for a sub $400 phone! The only hickup is that accessing the memory requires you to remove the battery! Annoying.Another annoying thing is the headphone jack is proprietary! That's really annoying...but I've got an iPod and don't plan on listening to much music on my phone.Other than these 2 minor problems, this is an awesome phone/PDA. It's very slim - not as slim as a RAZR, but fits nicely into any pocket. It's got an amazing screen - it takes up almost half the phone. Vivid colors and easy to navigate menu functions.the dialing buttons are nicely raised - I've got big fingers...so this is good. Ther is a joystick that takes a little getting used-to...but its nice.overall, I really like being able to synchronize with my office outlook. Now I can keep track of my meetings and keep a list of contacts in my phone. I know it's a feature of many phones, but I do most of my business in Outlook. It's nice to be able to easily sync the two. The layout is nice too!It's got BlueTooth and USB connectivity (infrared for you old-timers as well).It's got a vga camera - again not the best, but if you need to take a quick shot of something, it's really easy to use. 640x489 resolution. If you want to upgrade, there's a bigger better model which has a 1 megapixel camera and built in WiFi. It's expensive - known as the imate sp5m.Watch out for support - it's not very good. The only nice thing is that there's a pretty large community of users out there that can help you out with problems. Reading reviews from a lot of other web sites, it turns out that the joy stick is a bit sensitive - so don't use it too much. Be gentle, this is not a toy.You can find community based support on the internet, just google sp3i and you should find a number of great places to help you out.By the way, documentation can be downloaded from O2 Asia: just google O2 Asia and it'll take you there.

In a car, I have been using the speaker function of my BlackBerry 8820 for some time, and haven't been too pleased with the results: I can usually hear people (albeit with some cutoffs) but people have problems hearing me.The Jabra drive is something of an improvement in voice quality over the speaker function of the BlackBerry, but not that much of one. As for the unit's speaker, I didn't notice much of an improvement over the BlackBerry's built-in speaker. In particular, the volume is not that great; forget about using it with an open window.Pros:Reasonable cost (far less than built-in devices)Easy to pair via BluetoothCan play audio sourced from smartphone (albeit in mono)Cons:Volume too lownot hard wired, so the battery will go out eventually (unless you want wires all over your windshield and visor)All-in-all, I might use it for conference calls and other long phone calls, but most of the time I will continue to use the BlackBerry's built-in speakerphone.",4724,0 +4725,"unsuitable audio phone, bought for the minutes: there are no minutes + +I bought this to feed minutes to another TracFone, a CDMA (verizon) phone.This phone is not awesome: it is not-good.

With extreme difficulty, I was able to get it to connect via WIFI starting off at home. But as soon as I was out of range, or disconnected from WIFI, it jumps right to GPRS. And the transition back to WIFI is difficult to accomplish without re-booting the phone. This was not what I expected. On my current Win5 OS phone, I control the connection to GPRS and WIFI, and I can enable or disable as I please. So I ultimately sent the phone back. I specifically look for WIFI phones, but i must be able to control the connection. I refuse to purchase most new smartphones because they have a data package requirement.

Somehow gives u a feel of very flimsy and easily breakable phone. Verizon has disabled all the nice features, including the Bluetooth which has made transferring all the numbers a night mare. The LG vx8300 started communicating with my old Motorola v505 and I transferred all my numbers within 15 minutes without a hassle. The battery life also is also not that great.Overall, its stylish, cool...whatever, but it lacks the utility and sturdy feel to make it the phone of choice, well at least for me.",4729,0 +4730,"Very solid case. + +This case feels very solid and well made, minus the clear plastic film that covers what would be the front of your phone and the rear camera. The film feels as though you could poke your finger through it. Though I suppose it can't be too thick in order to retain the touch screen functionality. I would give it a 4.5 if I could, it fits my Galaxy S III like a glove.The bicycle mount also seems to be constructed well. There's padding on the inside of the clamp, so you get a snug fit on your handlebars. There's even a little rubber cover to put over the exposed portion screw that tightens the clamp.It takes a good deal of force to snap the quick release mechanism into the back of the case. You will get a very audible click once it is properly inserted. This allows you to remove the case from the mount without having to take the phone out. The quick release also prevents the case from falling off the mount. I have this on a mountain bike and didn't have to think twice about whether or not this could handle the terrain.I haven't had a chance to use this in the raid yet, but it does appear to be weatherproofed fairly well.

I'm not the first to say, but the camera on this phone is garbage. This phone faces other problems. When in the sunlight, as i normally am in California, you can not see the screen at all. The screen is rather small, and it's bulky. The batty life runs about three hours talking time, but the idle time is about three days. Idle time isn't important though, because you want to talk on the phone. I'm about 7 months into the phone, and it's slowing down on me. Not cool. Verizon is tricky really, because they seem to struck a deal with Motorolla, in ensuring that fine Americans like ourselves get stuck with rubbish phones. Do yourself a favor, get something else, like the LG VX7000, i'm about to purchase that soon. By the way, the Raz'r from singular is just as bad. No inchurance on the phone for a reason.

I had a friend once who found herself stranded after her car died and her cell was almost out of battery power.

I, fortunately passed by an OfficeMax and bought a new one but was in a state of panic prior to finding it...this on the dash and I would know even if I was in another town, without my GPS system on my phone, I'd make it home.A handy piece, provided to me for honest and unbiased feedback.",4738,0 +4739,"Beyond the Specs: The Real Galaxy vs. iPhone User Review + +So let me start by saying that I had been using the iPhone 4S prior to swithcing to the Galaxy S4 about 3 months ago. For those who do not want to read the complete detailed review, you may skip to the last paragraph at the bottom for a summary.So after having this phone for about three months, I will say I love many of the features of this phone as well as of Android. However, there are drawbacks. The drawbacks you will notice are minor things but there are so many minor things that they eventually become a major thing in my opinion.Lets go item by item:Screen Size: Love the large display and the sharp screen. Although I was hesitant about it at first, I have grown to love it. But no, it isnt all good. The screen is too large to reach all corners with one hand. This does not help when you are using the phone while driving but i guess ur not supposed to do that anyways so I cant complain. Also, even though the phone is quite large in ur pocket, it isnt quite as large and annoying as i thought it was going to be - unless u wear skinny jeans i guess. Now, when I look at other peoples iPhone's, I feel like how did i ever live with such a small screen. Yes, it feels that small after using this for a little while. Even though the large screen has its small drawbacks, I love it and idk if i would be able to go back to a small iPhone 4 size screen.Camera: Camera is amazing. I love all the different options you have to pick what quality and size you want your pictures and videos to be so you can save space on your phone. I love all the different modes the camera has and overall it takes very good pics. I have mine set for 6MP so it takes less space and so i can message the pictures easier and the pictures come out great! No con here excpet for the fact that there should be a way to open the camera without unlocking the phone like iPhone has it so if you want to take a picture of something right away you can. I'm hoping Android adds that to a recent upgrade.Battery Life: Battery life is good but nothing great. If i dont use it much throughout the day, I will have 30% or so still left by the end of the day. If i use it alot, i might run out of charge by 6-7PM. Moderate use, i usually am at 15% or so by 11PM and my day usually starts at around 730AM. The good thing is that when ur battery gets old and can barely hold a charge, u can simply get a replacement and switch it out which isnt as easy on the iPhone.SD car Slot: Love it. On my iPhone, i kept running out of space, granted i had the 16GB, but i love that you dont have to get the higher GB one for this phone and just expand the memory with SD card slot. I put a 32GB one in mine and i put all my music and movies/videos and pictures on there.Headphones: Good in ear headphones. Stay in my ear at the gym. Sound great. Cant complain. I tested them against the new iPhone 5 headphones and they both pretty much sounds the same. The iPhone headphones might be marginally better.Apps/Widgets: Plethora of apps. Apps for everything. So MANY FREE APPS! I also love widgets. Something i was not farmiliar with with my iPhone but they are very helpful.Out of Box experience: HORRIBLE. This phone comes with so much bloatware and is doing so much in the background that it was giving me anxiety. There is all this unwanted samsung/google/At&t; software. I wish the phone came with a clean version of android without all this other crap. A few hours of messing around and customization, i have it exaclty how i want it. But for someone that was new to Android, all the crap that came on here stressed me out.New Features:-Eye Scrolling thing: I tried it, it was annoying, and so i turned it off. BTW it doesnt detect ur eye, you have to move ur head. Who moves their head when reading a 5inch screen?!-Smart Pause: keeps pausing my video even when im looking at it. Useless annoying i turned it off.-IR Blaster: This is pretty cool if i am very very lazy to get up and get my remote. Tho i prefer my normal remote but its pretty cool.-SHealth: I thought I'd use it but I havent...didn't seem useful when I first tried it out but it may be so dont take my word for itOther Things I love:-I love you can dload music and torrents straight to this phone-I love the LED alert light for messages, I missed this feature when I left my Blackberry for my iPhone. U can also chose the color for different types of notifications-4G LTE is fast! Obv iPhone 5 has that too but i still thought id mention it.Little things that drive me crazy:-Speaker: Why is it on the back?! when u are listening to a video or something ur looking at the screen. Why is this projecting the audio the other direction. Very annoying.-Lock Screen button: When u go to press the lock button, u press against the other side also, but guess what's on the other side?! the volume buttons! so now u may have put ur phone on silent when u didnt want to or made ur phone loud right before work. Or maybe u noticed but now u have to unlock ur screen and change the volume and lock ur screen again and make sure u dont accidentaly hit the volume key again.-Clock: you know how when u take ur phone out just to check the time for a split second and then put it back in ur pocket? Well guess what? there is a split second delay for your time to update so ur gonna have to take it out...wait a split second..look at the time...and put ur phone back..this needs to update faster.-Buttons: all the buttons have a cheap feel. They dont have that bold (yes i pressed that MF button feeling) your always left wondering did i press that button? did that go through?-App Updates: I told my phone to only update apps on WIFI, but it does is on 4G also...wth stop!-Stuff: Stuff takes longer to do than on the iPhone. It just does. There are more options and more menus and more of everything. Its the price u pay to be able to do more with ur phone i guess.-Emojis: My gf and I cannot communicate anymore. We use Whatsapp because there are no emoji's on andorid except those crappy android only emojis which suck.Emergency Call: The emergency call option is right where ur thumb will hit it continuously when u go to unlock ur phone. ANNOYING!-WIFI: it connects to random unsecured wifi networks around u without asking you..i dont like it...there are unsecured networks around my work that it will connect to but they dont have internet so ill have disable wifi so i can use my 4G and then when i get home i have to rememeber to turn my wifi on so i dont go over my 2GB data limit.-Email: I dont love the email on this phone..gets ur job done though-Saving Pictures: u know when u go on FB and u see a meme and u wanna save it...and if u have an iphone u can hold down the pictures and an option to save the picture will come up...well not here. I think there is an app u can dload to do that but why should i have to dload an app for something so simple. I just take a snapshot but then i have to crop out the sides and it takes from the quality of the picture as well.-Voicemail: why do i have to dload a visual voicemail app? why isnt it embedded in the phone? W/ESummary:I love this phone. It has alot of cool features and things you can do that you cannot do with the iPhone. Many of these features may just be Android though. It also has many drawbacks which tick me off.Would I make the Switch knowing what i know now? Yes, yes I would. Although, I don't love it so much that I'd out rule the iPhone. If Apple came out with an iPhone 6 with a bigger screen and some cool new features, I would consider switching back. I love the build quality of the iPhone, something that the Galaxy simply does not have. I also enjoy the ease of use on the iPhone, although, I hate that whole syncing with iTunes stuff (when i was trying to take my music off my iPhone so I could put it on my Galaxy it was, challenging, to say the least, because i had to download a software which wasn't free to get my music off because Apple doesn't allow YOU to remove YOUR music that's on YOUR phone -_-)Hope you found this review helpful*UPDATE****After having this phone for almost a year, here is my update. First off, why did Samsung delay Kit-kat to S4 users till just about a month ago. It was very annoying that everyone was running kit-kat and I had Jelly-Bean. Secondly, along with the Kit-Kat update, Samsung decided to add more annoying apps that I didn't ask for. The phone also acts up quite a bit now and feels much slower. Also, the plasticy quality of the phone is really getting to me. The trim scratches and peels way too easily. Also, the battery life has significantly decreased since the update to Kit-Kat, it barely last me half a day now. Also, as I have mentioned above, the power button on one side and the volume buttons on the other is a very stupid feature and so is the speaker on the back. And i don't think they have fixed those on the S5 either. Samsung needs to start listening to its customers and improve the things that most people complaining about such as the plastic etc. Also, none of those cool features that Samsung advertises work well. They are all useless. Not to say there is nothing good about the phone. Everything i mentioned above about the phone that i like is still there. However, i have lowered my 4star to 3 star. I am not going to upgrade to the S5. Going to, probably going to give the HTC One M8 a chance.",4739,0 +4740,"Excellent Android Phone w\ Amazing Rare White Ceramic Color! + +I'm not going to get into too much detail here.

The phone is totally white, which I love!",4740,0 +4741,"Great little speaker! + +I paid $20 for this on sale. If it were full price, I probably wouldn't have been interested. But for $20, this is almost too good to be true. Other reviewers complain about the controls, but you never really need to touch the thing unless you are turning it on and off;1. Turn unit on. It automatically pairs with or is available to your Bluetooth enabled device.2. Turn up volume on the speaker to almost full.3. Once paired via Bluetooth, all volume control and song navigation can be accomplished from your phone or ipod...The speaker is about the size of a half can of soda (or beer). Very nice, clean design. Seems well built. I haven't had it for long, so not sure about durability, but it appears sturdy. I use it in the garage, paired with my iPhone 4S. It says 30 foot range via Bluetooth, but I have walked out to the mailbox (75 + feet away!), with my phone in pocket, and it stays connected and clear. No, there is not enough available volume or bass for a dance party or the like, but for listening to music by yourself or with a few friends on the patio, its perfect. Just loud enough to enjoy musical nuances, but not drown out conversation. Pick it up and take it with you in the silky little pouch provided, and the party is mobile.",4741,0 +4742,"Good but 1 problem + +I like the flip case but Samsung missed out one major problem, the flip cover blocks the volume button, makes it kind of hard to press the volume button.

However, typical of engineers that probably don't use a product they changed the form factor and made the speaker circumference larger with sharper unrounded edges that hurt the ear (even with the silicone donut), and the vertical drop on the ear insert was shortened by 1/4" so the earpiece doesn't fit well on an average ear - combine the two design issues and the Silver II is improved internally but it is an uncomfortable earpiece for all day wear. Unless you have a very small ear with a fairly large opening the original Elite Silver rather than the Elite Silver II may be a better choice for the all day user.With some improvement this could be the best headset available and worthy of six stars.",4744,0 +4745,"Works great.

The frustration of trying to make it work is absolutely annoying. I paid for something that will just sit (or wind up in the trash dump). I got mine at Verizon Wireless and as they are little more than professional scam artists in that store, I am sure they will not be willing to help and Plantronics said ""hey ship it back to us and we can ship you a new one""...so I have to pay for the shipping. Give this was not very expensive, i am going to have to invest more to have it work than I would have otherwise. I should have wary of Plantronics from my past experience with them but I was an idiot and just got it anyway.So if you have time to spare to try to make it work, money to spare when it doesn't and a super high level of tolerance for frustration (as well as patience)....give it a try.

I contacted the iBattz customer service and was in correspondence with Robin for a while (she replies to Amazon comments, btw). After some troubleshooting, the battery case still wouldn't charge the iPhone. They sent me a replacement battery case and asked that the defective case be sent back to them, postage paid by me.SECOND (replacement) CASE:I charged the battery case to 4 solid LED lights (100% charge) then charged my iPhone, which was at 19%. By the way, the manual included with the case mentions nothing about the recommended use of the case only at 20% iPhone battery life or below - this was something that Robin had shared with me during my correspondence with her. To my surprise, the iPhone only charged up to 92% with the battery case depleted. I gave the battery case another try the next day and waited for my iPhone to get down to 19% before charging; this time the battery case only charged the iPhone to 91%.I contacted Robin yet again to share my experience with replacement case to which she responded was normal behavior. ??? She even went as far to explain a theory behind the lack of 100% charge: ""The reason this figure may vary also depends on the internal battery life of the iPhone. Certain iPhones are being charged regularly and as a result it takes more power and time to charge it to full."" Uhm, what? Okay... so I guess now I have a less than 6 month-old iPhone 5S with a semi defective battery? Huh... not sure that's really the case.iBattz customer service is good so I have to give them points for that. However, this review is on the battery case and not the company's customer service. Just know that you'll actually get a timely response should you need to reach someone in iBattz.BOTTOM LINE: This is fair price for a decent case. The replaceable battery concept is definitely good but I just can't wrap my head around a 2200mAh battery not being able to charge a 1500 mAh battery to 100%. The battery does come with a 1yr warranty, which I highly suggest people take advantage of.

If you want the _full_ and complete repair, you need the liquid adhesive that others have mentioned. (However, this can lead to bubbles if you're not careful. Without the adhesive, you have a small gap between the glass and the digitizer. Not sure how this affects performance. I know it works if you press hard enough, but was not able to do a test with a light touch and I unfortunately broke the thing...more on that below.)A word of advice from my experience:The phone comes apart quite easily up to the point where you could do a full assembly replacement. (These are the $200 ones you see elsewhere.) The advice to watch videos and do research on the rest of the repair, where you have to de-laminate the glass from the assembly, is worth heeding. When I separated mine, I used a heat gun and worked very carefully. The glass continued to break, but the remaining adhesive keeps most of the pieces together. It's a scary 20 minutes, with a lot of breaks to keep heating. Heat, slide the plastic shims a few mm, heat again, repeat. And the whole time you feel like you're hurting the thing, but you don't know if the LCD/digitizer is being damaged or not.Bottom line, everything was fine - just move slowly and carefully. And you'll have to keep heating it more after you're done to remove the remaining adhesive with a microfiber cloth. It was scary while doing the separation, but if you work patiently and have done your homework, I would say this is very doable for someone who has a bit of experience with repairs/teardowns. (NOT for the complete novice, though!)Last word of caution - after you're all done, and everything powers up, and you're about to pat yourself on the back, don't forget to put the rear housing on before you replace the screws for the main logic board. Because without it, the screws are long enough to touch the LDC, and they will crack it. :(",4767,0 +4768,"Slim Fit Case Says It all + +When the package arrived, there were some scratches on the product itself.

Better than my Otterbox. + +I decided to get the New Trent Ultra-thin iPhone 5/5S Case from Amazonafter being very happy with another New Trent product. I quickly openedthe case upon arrival and I was extremely happy with what I found. Thecase is very thin (ultra-thin according to New Trent), even thinner thanmy Otterbox Commuter Series case. The case consists of three pieces, ahard inner case, a soft outer TPU case, and a polycarbonate back cover.The hard inner case has an integrated scratch resistant screen protectorwhich is extremely clear and it even seems to enhance my iPhone 5Sscreen. I have tried other cases with integrated screen protectors andthe all seem to be either too thick or have too much airspace betweenthe protector and the screen rendering the case a little unresponsive tothe touch, but New Trent seems to have figured out the perfect balancebetween protection and screen responsiveness. It's as responsive as anunprotected screen. It also has a thin protector for the fingerprintID/home button, "Water-Resistance" film over the microphone/receiver,and clear protectors for the camera, which does not affect pictures withor without flash, and Apple logo in the back. All this protection seemsfit the bill for the water resistant claim. Note this case should bewater resistant and NOT WATERPROOF as other much more expensive casessuch as the Armor Series, Preserver Series and Lifeproof cases. I wouldfeel confident using this case out in the rain but care should be takenaround bodies of water.The soft outer TPU case seems to be made of a material similarly foundin other cases such as Otterbox but much better manufactured. It seemsto be denser, have a better texture, and does not suffer from moldirregularities such as seams and ridges. I LOVE the fact that the casewraps around the hard inner case. This ensures the TPU cover retains itsshape and does not stretch overtime. One thing I found with my OtterboxCommuter Series case was that no matter what you do the soft inner coveralways seems to stretch and loose some of its form specially around theareas where it meets the hard outer cover. It also has tight covers forall buttons and connections sealing the phone nicely from dust and waterdrops. The covers can be difficult to open at times, specially toconnect the lightning cable but I do prefer a tight cover over a softercover as those found in the Otterbox cases. Time will tell whether thecovers get easier to open with use as the TPU stretches. All theopenings are big enough for all connections to be used without aproblem, even with the larger lightning connection housings found onthird party cables (I have no problem connecting my Monoprice lightningcable)The polycarbonate back cover is a nice touch adding additionalprotection to the back and seems to mimic Apple's design for the iPhone5S. On the package and the online pictures (Amazon) it looks to be agraphite color similar to the new iPhone 5S color scheme however thecase I received has solid black back cover (which I do prefer, howeverthere will be customers that anticipate and look forward to the graphitecontrast so this should be either specified or more accurateimages/renderings should be used) My only complaint for this case so farcomes from this piece as it does not have any texture and it seems to bea magnet for fingerprints. I would have liked some sort of texture tominimize the fingerprints and also add some grip to the case.Overall I am extremely happy and satisfied with the New Trent Ultra-thiniPhone 5/5S Case and I feel confident that my iPhone 5S is nicelyprotected against drops, the elements and it seems like it will lastlonger than my previous case, just remember this is NOT a waterproof case.",4772,0 +4773,"great case + +Sturdy, yet flexible.

If not I will like to get a refund for the phone.Thanks for your cooperation.Besr regards,Simeon Okoli",4780,1 +4781,"Only smartphone worth owning + +Before I begin this review, let me just ask that you ignore my last name. Yes, my name makes it blatantly obvious that I'm Finnish, but that has absolutely nothing to do with me liking the Nokia N900. I have lived in North America all my life, and really couldn't care less whether Nokia is in Finland or Frisia. In fact, until recently, my handheld loyalty was not to Nokia, but to Palm; it was only after Palm betrayed their roots by abandoning PalmOS and going to this ridiculous ""webOS"" absurdity that I knew it was time to make a switch. Had Palm stayed true to what they did best, the latest generation of PalmOS devices would still be the only handheld devices in the world worth getting or using, but this can no longer because the case, because there's no such thing as a latest generation of PalmOS devices. The Nokia N900 is a great device, not because of any ethnocentrism on my part, but simply because of its technical merits.What are those technical merits, you may ask? First and foremost, the Maemo 5 operating system, code-named ""Fremantle."" As Nokia's own flavour of Debian Linux, Maemo has been around for a while, of course; we've seen it in Nokia's previous ""Internet tablet"" devices like the 770, N800, and N810, but those devices had only Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity, not true cellphone connectivity. If you've used one of those devices, you already know how great they are, so consider the N900 basically a similar device with GSM connectivity to boot, meaning you can take the already-mature Maemo interface almost anywhere in the world and get online with it.Before we go into details, let's go ahead and get a couple of things out of the way which aren't important, but which have been mentioned by some others: Contacts and calendaring. As basic logic and reason can tell you, if you need an entry stored in your phone to remind you of who someone is, that person obviously isn't very important to you anyway. I challenge anyone to make sense of the practice of keeping thousands of people's names in a contact list because those people are ""so critical"" to the listkeeper that it's necessary to look those people up to remember who they are. As for a calendar, the N900 is for those people who understand that life is for living, not scheduling. If you care about either of these things, what you want is not a smartphone, but a pocket planner. Go to any office-supply store and buy one for a few dollars.That said, let's get started on the important things. For starters, the N900 is the only major mobile device currently on the market that gives you a real command prompt out of the box, with no tricks or hacks required. You get the phone, you turn it on, and ""X Terminal"" is already in the applications list. Sure, there are ways to get similar functionality on other phones, but none of them give you this option without resorting to bizarre tricks that appear to have the manufacturer's disapproval; yeah, you can jailbreak the iPhone to get a real BSD prompt, but jailbreaking the iPhone is a whole other can of worms that Apple has done as much as they can to prevent. You can install an application from the Android Market to give you a command prompt on an Android device, but PTerminal, which used to be the standard app for this, was removed from the Market; do you really want to base your device's functionality on some online store which the manufacturer can change or revoke at their will? Despite the Droid's claims of what it ""Does,"" it's clear that one thing Google doesn't want you to do is actually get root on the phone. As for the Palm Pre, yeah, I know there's that trick where you can root the Palm Pre with the Konami code, but does anyone really care? Some people derive entertainment from imagining that they're clever by using such tricks, but at the end of the day, your needs are generally better served by a device that actually tries to allow you to do what you want to do instead of forcing you to break it in unexpected ways just so you can do basic things like get a command line. The N900 is a recourse for those who want genuine freedom from their smartphones, and who don't mind the phone giving that freedom willingly instead of requiring you to break into it.Naturally, then, when you receive an N900, the first thing you should do is use the Desktop menu's ""Add shortcut"" command to add a shortcut to X Terminal to the desktop, since it is the most important application on the N900. In fact, you'll probably make your first use of the command line very early on: Like many phones, the N900's GUI does a poor job of communicating the device's battery level, only showing a tiny icon which gives a rough graphical indication of the battery level. Thankfully, the phone has a simple shell command which shows the battery level as a numerical percentage. You can package this command into a shell script, which is how things should be done anyway. The shell command to view the battery level is: lshal|grep percenNow, the N900's list of installed applications isn't complete. For example, it comes with vi, but not EMACS. This will work out well for some people, but personally, I vastly prefer EMACS; thankfully, QEmacs, a relatively light but functional version of EMACS, is available for download. For those who want them, pico and nano are also not available out of the box, although of course they can be installed as well. In fact, it must be borne in mind that since this phone runs a variant of Debian, you have a virtually limitless library of free software at your fingertips that you can download for free, since dpkg and apt-get both come with the device. Yes, ""apt-get install dosbox"" works just fine from the command prompt, although before you start installing .deb packages from the command line, you may want to check the N900's built-in ""Application manager,"" since many common Linux programs have already been made into packages especially for Fremantle. However, the catch is that the application manager's main repository of interesting programs is hidden by default. By far the largest catalogue of programs is simply called ""Extras,"" and it is disabled by default. Once Extras' ""Disabled"" check box is unchecked, many more applications become available. The first one of these you should install is rootsh, as it will give you the ability to become root in X Terminal using the ""sudo gainroot"" command. Out of the box, the N900 has no simple way for you to become root. Admittedly, this is a bit of a work-around, but it has Nokia's full approval, and this additional extra step is more of a way to protect newbies from accidentally doing something catastrophic as root than an intent to prevent users from becoming root in the first place.Once you've gotten settled into the N900 by becoming root, you'll want to get down to actual usage, and since the primary reason to get a smartphone is so you can have a handheld PC in your pocket, I'll confirm that there is a version of DOSBox 0.73 for Fremantle, and yes, it installs and runs quite nicely on the N900. Performance is a little choppy (especially the sound, which tends to glitch every couple of seconds), so you probably won't be running Quake on this device comfortably, but most DOS programs set up and run without major issues. Mouse emulation works a little strangely, with taps on the screen not seeming to consistently register mouse-clicks in the same place you tapped, but keyboard emulation is surprisingly comfortable, although the N900's lack of a full PC keyboard means that you may have to make some compromises in terms of key emulation if you're planning to play a flight simulator which has hundreds of active gameplay keys.Going beyond everyday usage and looking at the overall craftsmanship of the N900, the device feels sturdy and solid; it is slightly thicker than a typical smartphone on the market today (probably partly because of the inclusion of built-in stereo speakers), but not significantly heavier. The N900 does have a handful of nagging quality-control issues; among the most worrisome of these is the rebooting issue that seems to afflict about 10% of the N900s and causes them to reboot constantly (approximately every few minutes), rendering the device almost unusable. If you have a root shell (which can be gained using the rootsh application and the ""sudo gainroot"" command, as above) then you can do what usually fixes this issue, which is to edit the /etc/pmconfig file (which you can do using vi) and change the line which says ""enable_off_mode 1"" to say ""enable_off_mode 0"" (in other words, simply change the 1 to a 0). After you save the file, power down the phone and turn it back on using the power button at the top. My particular phone had this issue, and this simple change appears to have fixed it; the phone still randomly reboots, but now it happens about once a month, instead of once every 5 minutes as it did when I first got the device.(Oh, and while on the topic of tweaking config files: If you want to turn off that slightly annoying video of the two hands grasping each other which shows up each time you turn on the N900, edit the /etc/hildon-welcome.d/default.conf file and just place a # sign in front of the ""filename"" line to comment it out, so that the line ultimately looks like this:)#filename=Hands-v32-h264.aviSpeaking of first getting the device, one thing that those who've been afflicted with more popular phones will immediately appreciate is the usability of being able to turn the phone on and start using it right away without having to ""activate"" it. I almost didn't believe the stories I'd heard about having to activate other phones until I took a look at the other phones and tried them for myself. The stories really are true: The iPhone, the Palm Pre, and even the Motorola Droid all require you to ""activate"" the phone before you can start using them. I really can't imagine what kind of person tolerates this insanity without taking the phone straight back to the store; this is particularly egregious given the ""Droid Does"" marketing slogan, promoting all the amazing things the Droid can do. One thing that Droid Doesn't: Work without requiring you to activate the phone with Verizon. In a similar vein, anyone who's had an iPhone has probably seen the ""Activation required"" screen, which is basically a picture of a cable and the iTunes logo, with an arrow pointing from the former to the latter, and a ""slide for emergency"" slider at the bottom. You literally need to have iTunes installed on a regular computer and plug the iPhone into the computer to get past this screen. Even if we momentarily disregard the fact that the whole point of owning a smartphone is to replace a computer, and thus the idea of needing to plug your phone into a computer is sort of like the concept of forcing your spouse to make out with your other spouse, the idea that the phone will literally lock itself up until plugged into some controlling piece of software is so absurd that it genuinely appals me that people will so gladly carry around these ticking time bombs in their pockets and then talk about how cool their phones are. The ""slide for emergency"" screen might be acceptable to people who don't understand computers and want their computer to be a beautifully-stylized box that costs too much and does nothing but flash pretty lights in their face--in other words, people who are already hopelessly brainwashed Apple users--but anyone with half a brain will recognize that getting a phone that requires this kind of phoning-home ""activation"" process is ideological suicide. If you want a useless piece of plastic that will regularly stop working until you plug it into a computer running iTunes because it's just so cool and you want to brag to all your friends about how you wasted money on a ""hip"" product, the iPhone is for you. If you want a phone that just works--in other words, if you want a smartphone that is actually smart--the decision is obvious. I was briefly considering getting a Droid because of the hype, but today, I'm so very relieved that I got the N900, because as another company's marketing line says, ""It just works"" for me when I need it to and doesn't require me to register with some draconian wireless carrier, because the N900 is relatively carrier-agnostic and designed to be a stand-alone device that you can choose to use without any wireless contract at all.I say ""relatively"" carrier-agnostic because the N900 uses the European standard 3G frequencies of 1700MHz and 2100MHz, which are also supported in the United States by T-Mobile USA, but not by AT&T;'s 3G network (which uses the 850MHz and 1900MHz frequency bands). The phone will still work with AT&T;'s network, but only using 2G protocols, not 3G. The only way to get 3G connectivity with the N900 in the United States with a major carrier is to sign up with T-Mobile USA. This may be something of a setback for people who had their hearts set on getting 3G with AT&T;, but realistically, do you honestly want to give your scarce money to a controlling fascist organization like AT&T; anyway?One thing I'm very, very grateful for in the N900 is that it uses a resistive touchscreen instead of the capacitive touchscreens which are so popular right now. This is a pretty bold move by Nokia, since it essentially bucks the current trend, but it allows you to use the phone's included stylus, and there's simply no way around the fact that a stylus lets you choose items from the screen with much greater precision that sticking your fingers on the screen. Let the Apple fanboys fumble with the iPhone's asinine on-screen keyboard, which seems to only figure out what letter you're trying to type in about half the time; with a resistive touch-screen, the phone will figure out exactly what you're trying to tap on. It's true that resistive touchscreens aren't quite as responsive as capacitive ones, but the ability to use inorganic objects to tap buttons on the screen is more than worth this slightly decreased sensitivity. Of course, anyone who complains that the resistive touchscreen doesn't allow for ""multi-touch"" capability and is looking for something which reacts well to being touched in multiple places at once should look into getting a girlfriend.In terms of the ""nice to have"" extras, the N900 pretty much has it all. Yes, it has a 5-megapixel camera which takes pretty good photos, it has GPS functionality built-in as standard functionality (not an ""extra"" which you need to pay more for), it does tethering (although I haven't tested this personally), it has an accelerometer (which is what enables that ""Bounce"" game which everybody loves to use as a proof-of-concept demo on this device), and it has a multi-color charging indicator/status LED. Depending on what you intend to do with the device, any of these may be a big deal or they may be completely inconsequential, but they're all great to have just in case.Considering all that it does, I simply assumed that short battery life would be something N900 owners would have to live with, but Nokia has pulled off a near-miracle by somehow getting excellent battery life out of this thing. Nokia's stated goal with the N900 was full-workday battery life, meaning you should be able to actively use the device for 8 hours without a recharge. I haven't actually tried this (I use the N900 in relatively short bursts of activity; I rarely find myself having cause to use it for hours at a time), but it seems like I do get many hours of active use between chargings. The battery in the N900 isn't especially large or heavy, so I really have no idea how they did this, but I'm glad they did.So what does the N900 not do well? Admittedly, the N900 isn't perfect. For casual users, its primary downfall may end up being its keyboard; although the keyboard is quite functional and comfortable to type on, it has only three rows, most of which are used up by the letters of the alphabet. An extra row of keys would have considerably enhanced the usability of the keyboard and reduced the constant resorting to bucky-bits that is required when typing almost anything that's not a letter or a common punctuation mark.For those who intend to install a whole lot of applications, however, the N900's single biggest shortcoming is its critical lack of storage space. This is where Nokia really dropped the ball: Nokia's one huge mistake was to assume that users wouldn't want to install a lot of additional applications onto the device, but would rather use it for storing a lot of movies and music and other large media. To this end, the ""/home/user/MyDocs"" folder that comes with the device has more than 20GB of storage space, but the ""rootfs"" file system (where all Debian packages will get installed) is only 256MB, and when you get the N900, most of that is already filled with things that come preinstalled. A factory-new N900 has about 70MB of rootfs space available. While this is enough to install some fun things, you will not be able to use the N900 to store and run the entire Debian repository of software, which would require at least a few gigabytes of storage. This is the one single limiting factor of the N900 that prevents it from being a potential true computer replacement (besides the possible limitation of its keyboard, which lacks enough keys to be a true desktop replacement). Some relief may come from efforts to ""optify"" software for the N900, meaning to rewrite applications in such a way that they install to the device's larger /opt directory (which is intended for user-installed applications), but it's absurd that developers should have to modify existing code which already works fine with mainstream desktop Linux distributions. The N900 should have been designed to handle its own quirks instead of expecting existing code to change for the device. If you can restrain yourself from downloading and installing the entire Debian library of apps, and can live with only running perhaps a few dozen programs at most, the N900 should serve you perfectly well, but anyone who just wanted to firehose the entire operating system into their smartphone will need to wait for Nokia to release a phone with a multi-gigabyte rootfs.There's one other thing which I should probably touch on in this review: You may be wondering, how well does the N900 serve as a voice device? Well, I've had my N900 for about 3 months now, and in that time, I've been waiting to have a car accident or other event which would give me a reason to make a phone call, but things have been pretty quiet, so I'm afraid I can't attest as to how well the N900 actually works as a telephone. Other people have testified that it does have voice chat capability built in, so I think it's reasonable to assume that it's functional in this regard.I've said a few things about what the N900 is capable of, but I've only scratched the surface, because the N900 is a genuine computing device, running a fully-compiled Debian Linux knockoff which allows you to install any .deb package. This means that calling the N900 a ""phone"" is something of an insult; this really is a handheld computer, upon which you can install any application you want. The pre-existence of this kind of mature library of freely-made and -contributed software is the real beauty of a device running a Linux variant like Maemo. As with any computer, the possibilities are as limitless as your imagination. I used to be against capital punishment, but after spending just a few weeks with the N900, it seems that it is a good solution for users who want any of the other, inferior so-called smartphones mentioned in this review. Thank you for bringing true pocket computing freedom to the world, Nokia.",4781,0 +4782,"Don't buy from Transformersandgsmphones + +I got the phone and it didn't work in CR, I took it to the Cellphone company to see if it was locked and they said that the phone was in fact unlocked but for some reason they could't tell without checking the phone in depth, there was something wrong with the phone. So I print the return labels, because I wasn't going to pay for the phone to get fixed when it should have come functioning well as Transformersandgsmphones told me on three mails I sent before buying the phone. I should have gone with my instincts and buy it directly from Amazon... but no Transformersandgsmphonesphone in Chicago was cheaper.... Now I spend money (72 dls) to return the phone.

They are marginally lighter than the JayBirds and noticeably more stylish. The JB's look like abnormal earrings that hang by your earlobes and its bulkier. Neither will get in the way once you have it on though. Some people complained that the cable is too long on the BackBeats but its only about 2"" longer than the JB's. Both cables are made with the same rubbery material though the JB's are thinner. I also liked the button placement on the Backbeats.Sound:After a side by side comparison, the Backbeats definitely lack bass especially when compared to the JB's. However, the high's on the BB's are clearer, crisper, cleaner but the over all lack of balance kills the experience of listening to good tunes. Without the side by side comparison, the clean highs are still great but the overall music listening experience is ""OK"" at best. So the JB's are louder, better balanced, weak on the high's but with the EQ its ""good enough"". So it'll be up to you to decide if bass is important. Even after adjusting the EQ, the JB's just seem to sounds better. I haven't tested the mic but at this point it didn't matter to me because I wanted this to mainly listen to music on the go.Bluetooth Pairing:There has been some posts about not being able to pair it to multiple devices. I was able to pair it with 2 macs and an iPhone without having to delete the profile (as some people mentioned) just not have it connected simultaneously. So you do have to disable/disconnect the pairing between the current device and the headset and then enable the pairing with another device. For macs, that means Bluetooth icon > PLT_BBGTO > Use (or Dont use) as Audio Device.One thing I noticed is there sometimes is an inconsistent lag when you pair (""Use as Audio Device""). At one point, I had to disable and reenable Bluetooth on my Mac for the headset to pair correctly.User Experience:Aside from the pairing quirks, Plantronics does a great job on the user experience side. The Power On/Off sound is pleasant, and it does play a tone when its paired rather than the boring blip on the JB's. Its a well designed product and its better thought out than the JB's. I just wished it sounded better.

Absolutely a rip off!!",4788,0 +4789,"Functional and reliable, but no reason to buy when Sony is the same price + +Basic conclusions for the three phones discussed below, as well as some travel tips:Sony Xperia Tipo Dual-SIM ST21A2 ($129)- nicest screen and camera, has dual SIMs. If you need dual SIMs, this is by far the best phone for the money that I found. The charger handles both US and European voltages for charging, but it only came with US plug, so need a European plug adaptor (should be $5 or less).LG LG P350 Optimus Me ($89)- Basic, reliable phone. about 1/3 cheaper than the Sony and Samsung models I looked at. The LG phone was the only one that came with an adaptor for both US and European (not UK) electrical outlets.Samsung Samsung Galaxy Y Duos S6102 ($127)- No reason to buy this phone. Similarly priced Sony phone was superior in every way. The charger handles both US and European voltages for charging, but it only came with US plug, so need a European plug adaptor (should be $5 or less).In a nutshell, these are small form factor smart phones (think palm of your hand) that use old (but inexpensive) technology to deliver very basic smartphone performance (not good for games). The main upside for the Sony phone turned out to be better screen resolution and brightness and a better camera than similar price/size phones. The other advantage is that it is sold directly by Amazon, which means more reliable shipping times and very little chance of getting a knock-off, or used or refurb phone that wasn't properly disclosed.I purchased three different ""smart phones"" for a recent family trip to France (Paris and Nice, and some side trips), and I will compare them here. They were the Sony Xperia Tipo Dual-SIM ST21A2 Phone (about $129), a Samsung Galaxy Y Duos S6102 ($127), and LG P350 Optimus Me ($89).All are unlocked GSM quad band phones, which is what you need for pre-paid service in Europe (LTE smart phones are still expensive, so not part of this discussion). For a tourist, pre-paid service is the cheapest route, and you don't get any unexpected charges. Using your US phone with an ""international"" plan is really expensive in my experience, especially for data.I wanted basic smartphone functionality, which included wifi, GPS, email, texting, and voice. Didn't really care about the camera and wasn't willing to pay up for a phone to play games on (can use your US phone with Wifi for that anyway). I have looked at the cheaper voice only or legacy feature phones, but they aren't that inexpensive (usually $30-$50) and seem to have reliability issues for the really cheap ones. Plus, if you think about how you are likely use a phone in a foreign country, being able to pull up a maps screen and pinpoint your location and find nearby food, medical, etc is a huge benefit. Also, for texting I wanted a keyboard, not a legacy phone keypad.All three phones performed their tasks reliably and competently. The GPS is especially helpful when you are overseas and don't speak the langauge. The GPS also efficiently integrated with Google Maps on all three phones, which meant I could use the full Google search engine to find restaurants or store places (useful if you switch phones and log in under your Google ID).One difference among the three phones was that the Sony and Samsung were dual SIM, while the LG was single SIM. The SIM card is what lets you use a particular carrier's service and provides your phone's phone number, etc. Having dual sim cards would let you switch between carriers without opening your phone, removing the battery, and also keeps you from losing the other sim card when you aren't using it. I just used one sim card per phone on this trip, but if you were driving though different countries in Europe or wanted a separate data provider, you might want to have dual sim cards.If I didn't need dual SIM cards, I would just go with the LG phone b/c it had all the functionality I needed at the lowest cost. The Sony phone is much nicer, though. The Samsung phone was basically identical to the LG phone in terms of functionality, but it had an extra SIM slot.Also, battery life was great on all three phones. When out and about, I typically turn WiFi off so the phone doesn't waste battery looking for wifi, so this helps. But I run GPS pretty much the whole day. I also set the screen to turn off on the shortest possible interval. Doing this I got about two days of use (a lot of texting, emailing, moderate maps use, not a lot of voice usage) out of a single charge. If you use a tone of battery, all three phones have a removable battery, so you could order an extra and keep it with you, but I don't see that as a huge problem.A note on signing up for service:I did try ordering a SIM from Orange from Amazon before I left. This was a waste of time and much more expensive than doing it in France at an Orange store (I know b/c I went to the Orange store in Paris). The Amazon SIM was $29.99 and included about five Euro of benefit- i.e. you are paying $25 for the physical SIM card, and then you have to go online and sign up for a calling plan.If you visit one of the many Orange (or another carrier's) stores in France, here is what I paid- For twenty Euro I got a SIM card with unlimited voice and texting for the month plus 150 mb of data and a five Euro credit. I also paid ten Euro for an extra 500mb of data. So for 30 Euro, I got unlimited voice and texting, plus a five Euro credit and 650mb of data during my stay.Also, rate for using your cell to call to the US was 0.09 Euro cents per minute, so the five Euro credit gave you almost an hour of calling back to the states. The phone data plans do not allow you to use cellular data for skype, but you can use wifi to skype.To recap- buying a SIM card in the US- $29 and you get only a five Euro credit.buying the SIM card in France- 30 Euro and you get a five Euro credit plus unlimited voice, texting, and 650mb of data.If you must have a working phone when you land, you should order the SIM in the US and get it set up before you leave, but if you can wait until you check in to your hotel and then go to the Orange store it is a much better deal. Also, I never found any SIM vending machines at the Paris airport (CDG), though I see them all the time at Heathrow.One more note- if you use an android phone, when you set it up, make sure you disable automatic and background refreshes (unless you really want them :-) I went through 500mb of data in two weeks because of Android refreshes, and that was with WiFi on in my condo (I do self catering lodging in Europe).If you visit the Orange store in France, make sure you walk through the process of how to ""refill"" your phone's plan in case you need to buy data. You basically enter #123 on the phone, then follow some menus in French and enter your code. But there are no English menus, so if you want to be self-sufficient, get them to show you at the store.",4789,0 +4790,"Not for Verizon White iPhone 4! + +Although I love the front and back screen protectors that came with this package, this case did not fit properly on my 16gb white iPhone 4 for Verizon. It was difficult to slide onto the phone and almost impossible to remove.

Upon removal, there was pink marks from the case on my phone, but these easily wiped off with the cloth provided.

Too many of the negative comments aren't worth reading because these people didn't take the time to get to know their headset and actually use them in normal circumstances.Overall, I love this headset - it does exactly what it's supposed to do and sounds great. Listening to music, talking on the phone, everything is very clear and loud. I would suggest that people do NOT place a review on a product they used once and returned, and that you don't listen to reviews from people who did that. You can't blame the item if the one you bought was broken, either. This is why I read several reviews of different rankings before I decide on an item. I bought these headphones last summer (about 7 months ago) to work out with at the gym. I did not buy them on Amazon as I had a gift card to a competitor - but I have the exact same headset that is pictured here (with the red highlights near the ear buds, I've read that this means they are the ""trainer"" version, but they're the exact same headset as the ones with the white/grey highlights that are selling now except for the color of course).Now I'm going to kind of write the rest of this review in reverse - I'm going to write what others are complaining about and make my own comments:1) Fits Poorly - mine fit great and I do not have a small head. I'm a ""big and tall"" guy and sure, they may be a LITTLE snug but I like that and need that. If they were much looser I'd be worrying about them falling off - people have to take that into account for a product that has a battery in it and has no cords or anything to keep them on your head other than that snugness. Sure - if you have a Charlie Brown head they won't fit, but for everyone else they are fine and may take a little bit of getting used to.2) Sound Quality for Music - I see people complaining about how the sound is poor on their phones or MP3 players, but not many from people saying they looked into their device itself for a solution. One review had the guy comparing these to Beats by Dre headphones - SERIOUSLY? Compare a $70 Bluetooth headset to headphones that are what, $200 minimum and with a wire? Sorry you can't do that. Sure, you can get higher quality music sound from an expensive set of headphones that are only meant for music (and not phone and not wireless), but that's not what these are for. I use an iPhone 4 and they sound great to me. I get bass as well as higher pitches pretty much perfect.3) Sound Quality for Phone - Like above, I've seen mixed reviews based on the phone itself. Search reviews for key words like your phone manufacturer. Again I use mine on an iPhone 4 and it works perfectly, I can skip songs and pause as well as control the volume. I started using these in the car when my car's Bluetooth system (aftermarket item from Parrot I had installed) failed. My girlfriend said I sounded much louder and more clear on these, plus she could no longer hear the regular road noise (tires on the highway) she used to. I have yet to hear a complaint from people I call.4) Sweat Proof - Yes, these things work perfectly against sweat from my experience. I bought these specifically for working out in the gym at first as I wanted to lose weight and would need to listen to music to keep my mind off of how much I hate being at the gym. Like I said before, I'm a big man and this means I sweat a lot while I'm working out. I'm also a head shaver, so the sweat flows unhindered from my head - and I have never had an issue with it. Because they are snug, the headset doesn't slip with the sweat, either. I can understand one or two complaints where they say water got into the headset, but seriously if a lot of people are saying this I have to wonder if they have the proper ear buds in. I use the larger ones, myself - but if you use tiny ones you're lowering the chances of them staying dry. I know several runners that use this headset and they never complain about the sweat in any way.5) Battery Life - I haven't seen many (only a couple) bad reviews on this feature but I thought I'd add it. The battery life on this headset is unbeatable. they make great use of the battery in the back and it doesn't feel like a weight pulling on them at all. The overall weight of the headset is very light actually. I've used this headset to work out for a full week and only charged it on the weekend for months at a time. Now that I'm using it more for phone use, I am charging it more but only every 3 days or so. So, I use them 5 days/week, 3 hours of working out, 7.5 hours of phone time, plus another 4-5 hours of music time at my desk at work and I'm only charging them twice/week. Note though, that when I'm not using them I generally turn the power off to conserve the battery life. The charge time seems to be pretty quick for me as well.6) Bluetooth Connection - Again I haven't seen many negative reviews about this but it needs to be said that this thing pairs FAST once you get it set up (programming in the code per the instructions, which takes 2-3 minutes tops). Now, the trick is to turn Bluetooth on with your phone or other device first, then hold down the power button (center middle of the back/battery area) for a couple of seconds. The second it beeps, it pairs immediately. I've had other devices take up to a minute to pair, but this one is perfect. Also the distance you can be from the phone with this headset is fantastic - I leave the phone in my bag on a seat outside the racquetball court while I am playing and the sound quality is unchanged at large distances. One day I left my phone running in the locker room and went out to the court and did not realize I didn't have my phone with me - that's a floor and about 60 feet away!7) Controls - Really? There are people complaining that the controls are hard for them? There's buttons next to the ear buds and short of having gloves on I can't imagine a reason why anyone would have problems unless they didn't take the time to get used to where the buttons are. They're perfect for me, and I use them now without even thinking about them.In conclusion, these are great headsets of you are using them to work out without wires. They are also great for normal headset use and for cell phone use. They may take some getting used to but what doesn't? Take the time to figure out which ear buds are best for you, learn how to use the controls and use them for a little while before you decide if they are good or not for you.UPDATE: How I got this paired with a Win7 LaptopSo, Microsoft's page says this headset is not compatible with Windows 7, because Win7 doesn't support streaming of sound (bluetooth to them is more for input devices like mice, keyboards, etc). Motorola's pages gives no help for this after extensive searches, so I turned to the web for help because I need to do some training online and didn't want to have a wire going from my ears to the laptop. It was a lot of trouble but I'll give you the steps I took below so hopefully it will work for you as well.1) Download new drivers for your machine:NOTE, my work laptop is a Dell and it already had the latest Win7 drivers installed. After searching on the web I found a driver from Acer that actually worked. I installed these drives:[...] and rebooted my machine, worked like a charm.2) Clear the Headset's Paired ObjectsThis was a tough one to figure out becuase again I couldn't find this trick on the Motorola site. Apparently this headset can only pair to one device at a time (strange), so you need to clear whatever it's paired to first and re-pair it to the new one. To do this, make sure the headset is already ON and not linked to anything (for me, I just had to turn off the bluetooth on my iPhone 4). Then hold down the + button (volume up button, top one on the left ear piece) then hold down the power button on the back of the headset - hold them both down until the blue light comes on and is solid. Now you've cleared the headset of whatever it was already paired to.3) Windows should then automatically see the headsetAt the bottom right of your desktop near the clock, find and click the bluetooth button (blue oval). If you don't see ""Motorola S10-HD"" with a generic bluetooth headset icon, then click ""add a device"" and it will search for it. It should have found it automatically though. Personally I never had to type in the connection code, but if you're prompted for it, it's ""0000"" (all zeroes).That should be it - for me this worked and the only real pain is that I have to go through the procedure again when I'm done using the laptop to re-pair it to my iPhone 4 - but it only takes about 30 seconds each time so no big deal and it's worth it to me. Hopefully this helps you!-Drake",4794,0 +4795,"I did not get so far + +I am very angry over more than a month and did not reach ((( Galaxy Note 2 - Black Executive Specially Designed Leather Book Wallet Case With Credit Card/Business Card Holder))) Every time Ask WalkNTalkOnline ... then tell me I've sent it with you on the same day...OK , What is the name of the shipping company, which sent by the item...Do you have your tracking number the item..And then respond to the same answering ((( I've sent it with you on the same day)))Oh my God, I'm tired and did not get a solution...",4795,1 +4796,"Not for Galaxy S4 owners + +I just read the first few reviews on Amazon and ordered this right away because I thought it was durable and considered the clipper that comes with this case to be a big bonus.

That means that it is ditching the MeeGo system almost completely and will plan to phase out support for Symbian in the next year or two. That isn't quite enough for me to change my review on the phone, because the phone still holds its own as the best hardware on the market right now. But you'll have to keep in mind that Nokia will slowly stop rolling out updates for Symbian. If you're still attracted by the hardware, I say still go for it definitely. Like I state in my review, Symbian^3 is more than adequate, it is just slightly clunkier than it's competitors, but it CAN do everything that other OS's can do. If you're not particularly in love with the hardware or hardware is less important to you, I would look elsewhere, or at least wait until Nokia starts rolling out the Windows Phone 7 mobile devices. So this news really shouldn't affect either camp of potential buyers: those buyers that are looking for great hardware (like me), this phone is still a worthy investment; those buyers that are looking for the whole package and would be willing to make hardware sacrifices for a better OS, I would wait until Nokia starts making Windows phones and compare those to Android/iOS.Hardware:+ Very solid construction, the body is made out of solid aluminum and there are no loose parts whatsoever+ The screen is made out of gorilla glass, which is about as close to having a bulletproof glass cellphone screen as you'll ever get. It's pretty much impossible to scratch this screen, trust me people have tried on youtube and failed.+ Capacitive touch screen with limited multitouch support (see software for further details)+ Amazing camera, as of this moment, this is pretty much indisputably the best camera phone on the market. Gone are the days of inch thick camera phones that only output 8MP cameras with a much smaller sensor, the N8 takes 12MP photos with a sensor that is larger than many dedicated cameras. Megapixels hardly tell the whole story, but the sensor size goes a long way to allowing your N8 to replace your dedicated camera.+ Built in xenon flash, the N8 uses a legitimate camera flash and in my anecdotal use, it has the same range of illumination as my point and shoot. The LED flash on many other phones can't compare to a real xenon flash+ Video is very clear and can record in 720p resolution. One of the best features of this phone's video capabilities is the fact that when zooming, it uses the fact that it can take up to 12MP frames so that when you zoom in video it maintains 720p resolution and uses more of the camera's capabilities. For those of you who know how digital zoom works, that means that while digital zoom while taking pictures still is pretty much pointless, the N8 allows you to take full resolution 720p all the way through the zoom levels and isn't just a digital zoom of your original 720p frame.+ Built in FM transmitter means that you can play your music through a radio signal which your car's radio can pick up once you tune to that frequency. You don't need to mess with adapters or cables. The signal isn't extremely strong, so your mileage may vary depending on your phone's location relative to the antennae in your car.+ Built in GPS with FREE LIFETIME MAP UPDATES AND VOICE NAVIGATION. That means essentially for the price, you are getting a built in GPS with your phone, that performs just like a standalone GPS. You can use the GPS without a data plan with no problem at all, it picks up a signal quickly and is very accurate. If you're worried about the phone accessing the data network accidentally, you can just turn off A-GPS (the only function that uses data). The GPS will still work perfectly normal, it will just take slightly longer to pinpoint your position.- Since there is no LED, there is no video light available for the phone and that also means you can't use the phone as a flashlight, unless you use the screen with the application QTorch does nicely.- OVI maps (the GPS software) occasionally does weird routes that are not necessarily the best nor the fastest, but it will always take you to your destination, regardless.Software:+ Three completely personalizable home screens that you can swipe left or right to access. You can provide a shortcut to any of your apps (including third party ones), put in a list of your favorite contacts in a scrollable bar as a widget, get access to email, music player, etc.+ Gallery is now much improved in that you can ""check"" multiple items at once for deletion or to email, instead of deleting one picture at a time, which was a huge problem in S60v5.+ General use is generally snappy in and out of menus.- Essentially what S60v5 should have been, it doesn't make huge changes other than the home screens, it just fixes up some of the bugs in S60 like the inconsistent double/single tap to open applications.- Occasionally phone felt slightly underpowered, but these cases were few and far between- Overall, the user interface (UI) is not as polished as Apple's iOS or Google's Android. Things aren't always as intuitively placed as you would like. But in terms of functionality, Symbian^3 can do everything that the above two OS's can do, it just doesn't really make all the features as accessible.Bottom Line:This phone is extremely well built and has pretty much all the hardware options you can ask for in terms of camera, video shooting, build quality/materials, FM transmitter, built in and free GPS. In terms of software, Nokia's OS lags behind iOS and Android, but it is fully capable, just not as polished. The main draw for this phone, however, is the fact that it is unlocked. Which means if you don't need a data plan (more importantly, if you don't feel the need to pay and additional $30 per month), you do not have to get one for this phone. Nowadays, every carrier will force you to get a data plan for your phone, which in the long run, comes out to be much more than the cost of buying this phone unlocked ($200 for an iPhone 4, plus $30 additional data plan for 24 months comes out to be $920 just for the data plan. Not to specifically rag on the iPhone 4, just providing an example of buying any smartphone from a carrier). That was the big draw for me, and then the amazing camera and free GPS were just bonus features.",4800,0 +4801,"Dissapointed! + +I ordered this battery on the belief that the seller was describing the item correctly. I was wrong! In the item description and specifications the item was listed as a 1600 mAh battery. When the battery finally arrived I was heart broken to find printed on the battery 1150 mAh. Gone was the idea of having a bigger battery. I needed a battery badly so I dealt with the disappointment and installed the battery into my 32gb 3Gs. I was happy that I would be able to get 2 days out of the battery unlike the half day out of my current battery. Well My disappointment continued with constant reboots of the phone. This battery is not compatible with the 4+ iOS that is running on my phone. So back to my original battery and order another battery that I hope is compatible.

No more endless case searches, been through 7 already. This one provides protection, without the bulk but interestingly changes the traditional shape of the iPhone with curved sides, similar to a popular Android phone that shall remain nameless. My favorite design feature though is the slightly curved back which makes the device so much more comfortable to hold. I purchased one for my wife, who normally could careless about something as simple as a phone case but out of the blue, she commented how she couldn't put her iPhone down because it was so much more comfortable to hold. The colors are bold and the buttons are surprisingly responsive. Only word of caution, the cut outs at the bottom are fairly deep so will cause some minor compatibility issues with certain headsets jacks. The smooth back make it easily slide in/out of my pocket without picking up any lint and rubber sides provide a nice secure grip. No issues with camera flash interference.

The Panasonic KX-TSC11B more than meets my basic needs.My basic requirements for a corded phone are that it:* must be black - this phone is black (except for the cord, which is sort of a dark gray)* must have Caller ID - this phone has Caller ID (the name flashes first, then the number, and if you don't pick up off of this phone it will say ""missed call"" and include the name/number)* must be DSL wall compatible - this was one of my main requirements as I have a DSL wall filter and if you're like me you have found that very few phones fit nicely on the wall with a DSL filter, but this one includes a wall adapter and fits in very snugly* the ringer must be able to be turned off - this has a side button that will allow me to either turn off the ringer or lower it.Overall this is a fantastic phone. Panasonic makes durable phones that last for years and years. My only complaint is the extension cord. First of all it wasn't black, and second of all it was grossly long (there is no way it would have fit on my wall with my DSL filter) so I had to replace it with a tiny black extension cord.BTW if you're looking for a set of high-quality cordless phones at a great price, check theseout.Remember, you are what you buy.",4803,0 +4804,"poor + +I think this case wasnt described very well.

I have tried both the regular Jimi and the Jimi X. While I can stuff more into the Jimi X because it has an external money clip, I usually prefer the regular Jimi because it's more sleek and forces me to be more conservative with what I need to carry.I end up buying one about every 12-18 months are so, as they are plastic and they will eventually start loosen up at the seams, and the money clips do snap off after extended abuse.

If you want a phone that offers fantastic ""phone"" functionality in terms of great speaker volume during conversations, easy dialing, missed call lists, voice mail, crystal clear call quality with fantastic battery life, then definitely, without a doubt, look elsewhere.This device is all about give and take. It does things that no great ""phone"" can do, and not even dream of doing, fantastically well. That is, the N900, with the right operator, can be at least 90% as functional and useful as a lap top computer but with the total mobility that comes with a cell phone.For example, the N900 will render web pages in full ""standard computer"" format without any compromise, and do it beautifully without any hiccups on its 16 million color display. The N900's independent GPU and super fast processor speed up flipping through menus and rendering graphics SUBSTANTIALLY. In fact, I have never witnessed a phone that comes as close to true ""laptop"" web browsing and functionality, all while having the convenience of a tablet interface. It's as simple as that.Also, while there are definitely lag problems with the e-mail client that comes standard with the N900, it can certainly be argued that A) despite some delay, the e-mail client works well functionally speaking, and B) it renders e-mails in a great format that, again, mimics a laptop much more than any mobile phone I've ever used. As a professional who needs access to e-mail, and, almost as importantly, attachments and links contained within those e-mails, this phone does substantially better than any other comparable device (and I've owned or used MANY of them -- from the iPhone, to the MotoQ/Droid, etc., you name it).The widgets and programs that come with the N900 are also well designed and functional. Without getting into extreme detail, all of the programs and widgets I've used so far operate very smoothly, and very, very quickly. Using the Maemo OS, you can flip through windows at lightening speed with no delays or hiccups, and run dozens of programs simultaneously without any noticeable slow down. While there are admittedly a limited number of programs and widgets available right now, really, there is a Maemo equivalent ""app"" for all of the main, most popular iPhone Apps. If you want the equivalent of the iPhone App that is specifically for finding the closest vintage record store so that you can congregate with other Apple d-bags, you are out of luck, sorry. For the rest of us, every program you want or need you have access to.So, here is a summary:Pro:-Blazing fast speed in the operating system-Email client that allows you to view e-mails in a nicely laid out format with all access to links and attachments. Great for professionals.-Widgets and programs that have been developed that are useful and entertaining-Very high quality components and build; a signature of Nokia phones. They are simply head and shoulders above any other phone manufacturer in quality, ESPECIALLY Apple.-Great internet integration, and if you are willing to switch to T-Mobile (I did with no problems), very fast 3G utilization.-Surprisingly wide range of compatibility given that Maemo is such a unique platformCons:-Hiccups and slowdowns with e-mail and phone functions, but these are generally tolerable and hopefully will get better with firmware updates.-Limited number of programs and widgets available.-If you don't know how to control battery consumption, watch out, because you will be charging this phone a LOT.-Expensive and not (yet) available through a service contract.-Not as user-friendly as competitive devices, such as the iPhone (though that's about the only place the iPhone wins, and honestly the N900 is arguably MORE user friendly to the moderate to highly tech savvy community).The bottom line is that you NEED to research what you are getting into before you buy this phone, because if you're just buying this because it's the newest, latest, greatest phone, especially if you are coming from an iPhone that you loved for its ease of use, watch out, because you will probably be frustrated with this device (at least at first).

When I did the water test with no phone, thank goodness, the camera lens cover popped out and water flooded into the case. I then contacted the company to get an exchange which they didnt want to do so I then went to Lifeproof to get the item covered by my warranty only to find out the serial numbers inside the case are fakes. Lifeproof then sent me a letter documenting this and I contacted Amazon to let them know. To this day I still have not gotten my refund however I have filed an A-Z file with Amazon. If it would let me post the letter I would. I may try to copy and paste it on my next one considering I purchased 3. 2 from this company and 1 from another. So if its too good to be true, it's too good to be true. Don't risk ruining your phone!!!

If this kept up- 5 stars all the way. However, out of the blue, it started taking for ever to charge, and the charge that it took lasted nowhere near as long as it used to. Then, it stopped even taking a charge at all. Looking at other reviews, this is not an isolated occurrence. Still waiting to hear from their customer service after 10 days.",4829,0 +4830,"Goodbye Blackberry + +Having been a loyal blackberry customer for many years, I was so excited to hear that they were coming out with a newer, updated, almost I-phone like touchscreen. I pre-ordered it 2 weeks before it even came out! I guess that was my first mistake...I probably should have waited to see what people said after it was out for a while. Here is my horrific experience with this phone:My preordered phone came to my home on the opening day date! Yay! I brought the phone to the Verizon headquarters to have them set me up. They got my phone all transferred and I was on my way. About an hour into having the phone I noticed the programs weren't working and most applications weren't opening up. I then brought the phone back to the headquarters store and they promptly exchanged me with a new phone. An hour later, I was walking out of the store happy as a pig in you know what. As soon as I got to my truck IN THE PARKING LOT I noticed the buttons were not working. I played around with it to make sure I was not crazy. I wasn't. I brought the phone in 5 minutes after I had walked out and customer service could NOT believe it! They felt so bad for me. I toyed around with the idea of just going with a completely new phone (Driod, Iphone) and decided to give it ONE MORE TRY since I had 14 days STILL to change my mind. Another 30 minutes later I walked out again and had a new phone (the third one) and was happy again.That was 88 days ago. Today I woke up and the phone just completely would not turn on. I was so angry. The battery was not dead it was completely fine the night before. I proceeded to call customer service who said I would have to take it back to the store I got it from. The store said all they could do was replace it with the same exact phone (new...which was nice since usually they make you get a refurbished one). The problem is I didn't want a NEW TORCH. It sucks. It is garbage. This is coming from a LOYAL blackberry customer. I had the old curve, the new curve, the bold, etc. This is garbage and definitely the END of RIM.So now I am out the $130 I paid to ""upgrade"" and I am stuck with a CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED Droid Incredible 2. This wouldn't be a problem except for the fact that I paid $130 88 days ago to have a USED phone.I heard great things about all of the Droid products so I am excited for the switch (I am not quite ready for the Iphone....must....not....give....in).Wish me luck, but please....do NOT bother getting this phone. Blackberry is going down the tube. It's a sad day for me. Goodbye Blackberry.",4830,0 +4831,"Excellent product...but be advised. + +Product is genuine Samsung in genuine Samsung packaging. Comes with the option of dash mount or windshield. Has extra long ""uncoiled"" straight car charger cord for extra distance. I chose the window mount, and stays put just fine. Bracket sides release the phone quickly when pressing the button on the mount located in the rear. However, I have my S3 in an Otterbox case, and the bottom of the mount holds the phone acceptably and securely, but I believe that any of the extended thicker batteries with their own replacement back would more than likely be too thick to sit in the mount, since it is made for the stock thin S3.",4831,0 +4832,"what good it is when it does not stay in ear + +I saw couple of people gave 5 star review that made me buy this. Yes everything sounds good until you actually use it. Here is what happened.First the PROS: The red cable itself is good, sturdy and well connected into ear piece and connector.The sound quality is good too if it can stay in your ear.CONS: (1)I tried all three ear buds (caps) that was supplied with this product and no matter which one I use, this ear piece keeps sliding out of my ear and the weight of cable also pulls it out of your ear during normal use. That means you simply cannot use this in car, while walking , and even while sitting in the chair. Now what good can this do to you if it keeps falling out every few seconds. Lets say you are listening to song in few seconds you perceive the volume has decreased and this is biggest problem because bad ear buds.(2) Manufacturer says connector is gold plated, well if thats the case why does it pick static from other electronics when used in ipod socket. When using in iphone 3G, sometimes I have to force it in all the way or you cant hear a thing from this earphone instead you hear it from iphone. What good it is if you wanted privacy of what you are hearing and accidentally someone hears it from the phone's speaker because the connector did not fit well enough.(3) The worse part. This cable acts like stethoscope literally, if you do not connect anything to connector and simply lay the cable and connector on heart I was able to hear my heartbeats, and if I touch the cable I hear all weird sounds I should not be hearing, that means this cable acts like conductor of sound and noises around. Yes my ears are sensitive but do not want additional noise.Summary: Decent cord/speaker design is not enough, the product needs to be usable thats why one star. I am returning this",4832,0 +4833,"DON'T BUY THIS!!! USELESS + +You should not buy this, as you can get one for free! How you may ask? Just go to Apple.com, set up a repair for your iPhone.

Afterwards, just cancel the repair.",4833,1 +4834,"Got this as a present + +I was super excited about this when I originally received it or Christmas. However this product has been iffy at best from the get-go. I would say that at most it works about 40% of the time. Most of the times when I plug it into my phone and computer, either nothing happens, or it will charge for about a minute and then randomly disconnect.",4834,0 +4835,"Best case so far...not + +So my high expectations for this case turned out to be for nothing. The case protects well (I dropped the phone once and nothing happened) but the silicone stretched out way to easily. In the original review I noted how the silicon inner case fit like a glove. After removing the case from the phone only twice in the last week (once to use it on my ihome and once to clean it), I noticed it wasn't fitting properly anymore. Every time I took it out of my pocked after that the top left corner would slip off the phone (the hard plastic outer shell is too soft to keep the silicon in place). If I were drop to drop it in this process surely the screen would crack. I'm very disappointed, I though acase had a winner here but some serious design flaws were overlooked. Maybe they didn't test the very well? I'm returning it for a full refund.Original Review:I've tried many cases for my new iPhone 4s 32GB, and I've been disappointed at the lack of quality in many of them. I settled first on the Otterbox Defender, which I liked for it's solid design and protection. However the Otterbox is seriously bulky and access flaps to the headphone jack, silent switch, and charging port are poorly and designed severely limiting. The Acase provides just as much protection (save the screen protecter which isn't included) and is much more accessible and not nearly as bulky. The inner silicon layer conforms to the phone perfectly and is able to wrap around the front of the phone just enough that it stays put but doesn't limit your fingers' access to the screen. The hard layer is either hardened silicon or rubber-coated plastic. Either way it feels great and fits over the inner layer like a glove. A little bulk is added but I prefer it that way because it makes the phone easier to grasp. I feel comfortable that the phone won't take any severe damage if I drop it from 4 or 5 feet onto a hard surface. I do wish that a screen protecter would be included, but they're fairly cheap and easy to find. I also want to address two issues I read about in other reviews: One, I have no problems with the case limiting the flash, maybe because the flash on the 4s is improved over the 4 but I still don't have problem with it. Two, yes dust collects on the silicon but it's certainly not a deal breaker and it certainly doesn't case a serious problem; just blow it off no big deal. The big plus for me was the low price for the overall quality of the case. I will update the review after a while and see where it stands then. For right now I have solid expectations for this case and I would recommend it to others to use as well. Maybe it'd be nice if came in other colors but again no big deal.)",4835,0 +4836,"It does not come with the Samsung Galaxy tab cable + +The box says it comes with a micro usb and a Samsung Galaxy tab cable.

Most of the protectors I have tried on my phone are just plain wrong.This is quite likely the OEM screen protector that came with your phone when it was new. What is so great about it? It is a semi-rigid plastic film that both accurately transmits your input to the touch screen and provides a rigid smooth surface for your finger or stylus to glide across. Many screen protectors are too soft and your stylus or finger hangs up when trying to drag it. This also causes a loss in responsiveness to your input.Bonus! Because of this protector being rigid, there will be no air bubbles trapped underneath it when applied. And it doesn't attract dust, either.

Some people here says that is the same but is not. They sound much better. Of course is not great. If you want great sound buy the super expensive Dr. Dre headphones or Lady Gaga headphones from Monster.2. They fit in my ears perfectly and they don't HURT!! They come with earpieces of different sizes so you can try and find the perfect size for you.3. They don't fall out of my ear when I'm running. They stay in my ears for long runs. That's a plus.4. For calls works great. I try calling different people while driving, running or just sitting in a desk and the person in the other side heard me fine. This was a relief for me because with the old ones that came with the iPhone sometimes people said that they didn't hear me well.5. With this headset you can put on hold a call, manage the volume etc...Cons:1. When listening to music the bass doesn't sound strong enough for my taste but is fine for the price like I said before.2.

They are more expensive but if a sum all the headphones I bought in the last year I think I could buy the headphones from Monster ;-)",4843,0 +4844,"Great Accesory for iPhone 5s + +This is one of the best inventions I've ever seen. I have always purchased the latest phones (usually a new one every few months (at least one per year)). No matter what phone I have, there is always the same problem: not enough battery life.I travel a lot for my job, and use my phone all day. I usually spend between 2-4 hours a day talking and an additional 2-4 hours a day checking and responding to emails. When I am inside my office, I usually have a decreased signal strength, and my phone is constantly trying to connect to a network. Needless to say, I end up needing an extra boost in battery life by about 2pm. Nothing is more frustrating than getting the "low battery" pop up in the middle of a phone call or email.I used to always lug around multiple chargers; one for my Bluetooth, one for my iPhone, one for my Fitbit, etc. Now, all I have to do is carry this little guy around! I keep it plugged into my cigarette lighter, and have each of my cables there. Since my phone tends to need more TLC, I tend to just leave the lightening cable plugged into it.I had one from another manufacturer, but it got stuck in a rental car that I was using. I've seen other reviewers complain about it having a loose connection, but that was one of the things that drew me in. I had a rental car, and plugged in my Belkin. When I went to turn in the rental car, I could not get it out (the fit was too tight, and there is no lip to hang onto). I went back home grabbed a pair of pliers, and tried to force it out. I ended up pulling the face off of the dash :( I pushed it all back together and turned in the car.That put me on the hunt for a new charger. I stumbled across this one, and purchased based on the reviews provided. I have been using for a few weeks now, and absolutely love it! It does fit somewhat loosely, but from what you see above, I wanted that. When you pull out the charging cord, you just have to push the charger back into the socket. Not a big deal, and it may fit your vehicle differently. I drive a 2013 Honda Ridgeline.This is a must have for anyone who runs out of battery life before your day is done!",4844,0 +4845,"Don't waste your money even if it is cheap! + +It was cheap and it does not fit the phone it said it would. It doesn't fit the new iphone either.",4845,1 +4846,"Questions + +Will this phone works in T-Mobile 4g network and if you have answeer it would be very helpful and also will this phone work in diferent countries.",4846,1 +4847,"Great Product! + +Background.I am enrolled in T-Mobile's JUMP Program, which allows you to upgrade to a new phone every 6 months. I went to trade in my Galaxy S4 for a new phone when I was informed that you cannot trade in your old phone if the screen is cracked; unless you want to pay a deductible of $175. This was not an option. I found this kit, watched a few YouTube videos and decided it was worth the $4 gamble.The Packaging.First, who doesn't love free shipping? This made me very happy, until I tracked my package and it said I wouldn't receive my item for about 10 days. But, like I said, it's free so I can't complain. ESPECIALLY because it arrived in half the time! The packaging was simple, but absolutely perfect for the tools and delicate glass.The Material.One of my biggest complaints about the tools is I wish it had 2 normal guitar picks because that was the most useful tool. There was 1 normal one and then another one that had a bulge in the middle (which made it impossible to wedge under the glass). With that said, I still managed to get the screen off using only one. My other biggest complaint is the glass adhesive - or lack thereof. I read that you can use either UV glue or 2mm double sided tape. Because I don't have a UV light (and did not feel like purchasing one), I went to Wal-Mart and picked up a $6 double pack of double sided tape.The Verdict.Overall, this product worked for my intended purpose of replacing the screen at a quality just good enough to be able to trade my phone in. If you are replacing your screen with the intentions of keeping the phone, I would highly recommend using the UV glue. When I used the double sided tape, you could see a huge air bubble in the middle of the screen where the glass was not fully touching the screen. The touch screen still worked, however, there were some instances where I had to push harder than normal. BUT if you are just trying to temporarily fix the problem in order to upgrade, the double sided tape method is sufficient. If you decide to use this product, my one tip would be to TAKE YOUR TIME!!",4847,0 +4848,"Great product + +I have read other reviews and was a bit skeptical at first, especially since it is a 3rd of the price of the OEM Samsung version and it is bring shipped from China. Ultimately, I love it.I have a Galaxy S4 and have a Defender Otterbox case. The case is big and bulky and does an exellent job of protecting the phone from big drops (as I have tested accidentally.) I was worried about the charger not functioning because of the thickness, but it is not an issue at all.-arrived within 2 weeks, much earlier than noted.-price includes the 1. charger pad AND 2. the receiver (sounded too good to be true for the price)-shipping packaging was great-device professionally packaged in slick retail box-Setup took me all of 5 minutes. EASY.(4 of them was the removal/replacement of my case) I read other people having trouble getting the original case to close. I did not experience any issues at all. I did a small modification and did not use the sticky tape that comes with the receiver to adhere the receiver to the battery. Instead I stuck my own sticky tape to the other side and stuck it to the original battery cover. This way I could have full access to the phone battery and access the phone cards.Charging sync- this was another initial concern. As it turns out, this was also easy. I don't spend a lot of time trying to line this up and getting them to sync. I just put it on casually without too much thought and a blue light on the pad lights up (shows charging sync.) Also my phone gives an audible signal and the shows a battery charging icon in the top right.My usage pattern: I can't say much for charging speed and intensity difference vs. plugging in manually, but I don't have a home phone. At home I make calls or use the phone and easily put it down on the pad when I am done. It charges up well and probably more often now since the tedious task of plugging in made me not bother at times (plus it saves the wear and tear on the phone jack.)I just ordered another one for my bedroom nightstand and would recommend this product to others.",4848,0 +4849,"Nice + +I really enjoy this phone!

It included a card bit to use as a squeegee, a suction cup to hold the glass, a small screen cleaning cloth and a small wet-wipe, basic instructions and two stickers to remove dust.Bad:Screen fit is not horrid but a little below average. There will be gapping on all sides. The fitment around the button is rather loose.The cardboard does not make a good squeegee. It crumples under fairly mild pressure. I suspect it may have been exposed to a little bit of moisture during the packing process.The microfiber cloth is too small to be used with the cardboard. If you are going to advise that these two be used together to remove bubbles, then they should be sized to work together and they are not.The bigger issue is the glue they used on the glass protector. It is not very good. The Spigen I used on my iPhone was an entirely different animal. Once it was attached, it was solidly attached. Due to the low quality of the glue on the Tech Armor product I was able to remove it easily to check if it was dust causing the problem (it was not). What it does is not attach correctly to several inches on the right side. Not right at the edge (which would be hard to see) but in on the viewing area. In total 4 small stripes (like a dashed line) just over 2 inches long and around 1/16th to 1/8th of an inch wide.Contacting customer support resulted in a very prompt reply which essentially said there is no support for this product. Specifically it said that this was a 1 time use product and so doe not come with a lifetime warranty.

I think this is ridiculous. Bad service. I hope somebody will look into this matter.",4871,0 +4872,"The reasons Why Sprint Nextel are the best! + +Sprint in my opinion the best wireless carrier out their. It is odd that they merged with Nextel, because they are my second favorite.Sprint's native network reaches over 250 Million POP. That, with the roaming, their network reaches 290(Digital only phones) or 295(Digital and analog phones) people. that makes it the largest Wireless network in the USA.You get to roam on Verizon's, ALLTEL's, ect networks for free as well.Sprint only offers Unlimited data plans. They offer them for both their Visions and Power Visions access. Prices range from $10 to $25. $25 being the Unlimited Power Visions (EV-DO) access with all of the Sprint TV channels and some Sirius satellite radio, along with other streaming radio channels. Other content can be added, but you would need to check the list. They are always adding new things.Sprint is the only carrier that will let you use your Smart-Device like a Treo 650 with the unlimited Handset data plans. So with Sprint you can use the Unlimited Data on your Treo 650 for $10 a month. Both Verizon and Cingular charge $45 a month for this. T-Mobile $20.They also allow their customers to use their phones as modems, with moderate use. Other carriers either do not have this feature, or have it shut off.Sprint has also added Free Incoming plans to their Fair & Flexible plans. These are plans that keep adding new minutes to your plan, as you go over your bucket.this keeps you from paying 45 to 60 cents a minute in overages. Also keep in mind that other carriers charge roaming and long distance fee's on top of the overage fees. So you can be paying into the $2 dollar a minute range for going over your plan minutes. T-Mobile USA is notorious for this. You pay a fee for the overage minutes, a fee for the long distance, and a fee if roaming. T-Mobile USA's network is pretty small, so you could roaming easily.Another thought to throw around. Is Sprint uses 1900MHz signals for their CDMA/EV-DO coverage. They are also building out their 800MHz coverage with the licenses acquired from Nextel. Since 1900MHz needs more towers to cover a given area, this allows your phone to have more tower choices to choose from.This also increases Internet speeds, because speeds drop with distance.So I have found Sprint's data speeds to be faster then Verizon's. And Much faster then Cingular's and T-Mobile's Internet speeds.Sprint also uses Lockline for their replacement insurance provider. They cover Any phone on your account, purchased from Anywhere, no matter if it is New or Used. Other carriers insurance providers only cover new phones purchased from the carrier.I could go on and on, but just take this into consideration before choosing another carrier just based on a commercial. Or the bucket of minutes they ""Claim"" they are going to provide you. Minutes don't mean a thing if the network is not dependable and the calls sound like crap.Also keep in mind that Sprint uses CDMA, which is the same network technology Verizon uses. CDMA is the most efficient network technology.(...)",4872,1 +4873,"Great Case + +I give this case a pretty good rating because it does exactly what I need it to do. The leather quality and construction seems like it will last a long time. It even works well with my slim case.",4873,1 +4874,"Great Overall Case + +This is a great, well-made case that I am enjoying on a daily basis. It adds enough thickness to my iPhone 4s to feel comfortable without it being too bulky. I feel like I could drop my phone and not have to wince when I pick it up to see if the screen is cracked. Unfortunately, it blocks the silence button on the side of my 4s a bit since I was shipped the iPhone 4 version of the case.Pros:-Feels great-Looks amazing-Very protectiveCons:-Covers the silence button on my 4sOverall, you should definitely consider purchasing this case if you need protection without an over abundance of bulk added.",4874,0 +4875,"Looks the same but works differently + +Info/IntroI wanted an additional USB charger for my HTC Incredible so I bought this one. It looks the same and the model# is the same as the original (TC U250) but the HTC part# is different (Orig= 79H00098-14M, replacement= 79H00095-0M). The electrical specs printed on the new one are the same as the original but the fonts are different and the layout of the info is a little different.Good:- Arrived quickly. Kudos to Amazon (as usual)- Unit looks the same- 1.0A (1000ma) output - makes for a speedy charge. Most USB charging units like this tend to put out between 500-700ma. Higher output = faster charge.Bad:- When charging my phone, the screen freezes and becomes completely unresponsive.Since this is the fault of something electrical in the unit I cannot use this to charge my phone with confidence. I am concerned it may result is damage of some kind that may not be covered by my phone's warranty. Personally? I think this may be an instance of a pirated item that made it past an inspector along the way and is being sold as OEM. Either way, it is going back.",4875,0 +4876,"Don't like + +The headset is annoying.. The headset will not stay connected to my phone. If you have an iPhone this is not the headset for you!!

Reception is good, volume is adequate and the people I talk with say that my voice is clear. The controls are a bit stiff, as others have said. But that means they have good tactile feedback -- you know when you've pressed a button.One marginal shortcoming: the 510's clarity isn't good enough for it to replace the wired Plantronics USB headset I use for dictating to Dragon Systems ""Naturally Speaking"" voice recognition software on the laptop. But that would be a stretch for any wireless headset.Prices vary widely; shop around.",4877,0 +4878,"Best cell phone on the planet! + +[Forget those silly complaints about region lock. They do not affect 99.99% of users and no USA carriers. The N9000 is the European phone, and gets setup for the carrier used in the European country where you activate the phone. Period. US users need to get the phone for their respective carrier which changes the last digit of the number. It's that simple. Amazon makes both available. I teach overseas yearly. I keep my phone in airplane mode and use Wi-Fi or get a cheap phone card.]First, I am not affiliated with Samsung in any way, nor do I work for a cell phone store. I am a writer though.Secondly, I hate long reviews with the poster just reports the specs you already have. Rather, these comments show why the Galaxy Note 3 is more technologically advanced, and more phone for your money, compared to the many good phones on the market today. As for those phones that only show an app screen. I call them cave phones.1. The beautiful 5.7"" Super Amoled HD display has a ""Wow!"" factor. Everything is crisp and clear with a resolution of 1920 x 1080P, 386 PPI. Despite a few good contenders, no phone on the market can match the combination of vibrant color, and deep blacks. Check it out for yourself. For those who prefer drab, you can even adjust color intensity and contrast.Is this practical? You bet. You get more viewable data for all social networking apps; you can see more email and contacts without scrolling; browsing is quick and pages more visible; YouTubes and video are fantastic; games are more playable; you can see larger areas on GPS maps; you get a better view of radar in weather; (live) wallpapers look great; you can use it as a reader; you can multitask with it; and with the right productivity apps you can even get some work done on it. I will never go back to a small screen phone. This phone is a joy to use.2. The CPU (For US versions) is the quad core Qualcomm snapdragon 800 @ 2.3, which is the fastest processor on the planet as of this time. It will perform well for years to come. A few other phones have it. No lag on this baby. Just try to do things to outpace it. It moves data faster than you can see. Partially because of #3.3. The Adreno 330 GPU is the best on the market, a few other phones have it. Graphics are amazing. It is 50% faster than the Adreno 320 in the Galaxy S4 which is a screamer.4. It's the only phone to come with 3 GB of DDR 3 RAM. It also comes standard with 32 gigs of storage and you can add more with an SD card. Note: No extra charges for these!5. It has a great 13 megapixel camera with useful software, a BSI Sensor, Smart Digital Stabilization and high CRI LED. Very few phones have this. It is also the only phone to do 4K video right now - sharp! It also does 1080P video at 60 FPS which is great.6. No other phone has USB 3.0. 2 advantages: the phone charges very quickly on the 2 amp charger and nice thick cable. File transfer times are faster. With USB 3.0, a 2 gig file takes 27 seconds from the Note 3 to my (high end) PC. With USB 2.0 the same file takes 57 seconds.7. How many phones have an S Pen? Except for email and quick notes, I seldom used the S Pen on my original Galaxy Note, but the Note 3 comes with some useful software making it more functional, and the handwriting recognition is scary accurate.8. How many phones have a huge 3200 mA battery? It easily lasts all day with moderate to heavy use despite the large screen. Hardware CPU and GPU improvements, as well as Android 4.3 make the 100 mA bump over the Note 2 even more significant. You can also open the back and change out the battery - unlike some phones.9. It does infrared remote control. It also has TV-out (via MHL A/V link), Accelerometer, gyro, proximity, compass, barometer, temperature, humidity, and gesture sensor. I'm serious people, you get more for your money.10. Hello multitasking! The fast CPU & GPU, extra memory, and high-resolution 5.7 inch screen make multitasking feasible and fun on a cell phone. You can even scroll through multiple applications in each split screen. This is even better if you hook up a keyboard and mouse via Bluetooth or USB, and connect through HDMI to your TV or computer monitor. The Note 3 can actually serve as a small computer. How many phones can do that? You can also mirror the phone screen with your smart TV for internet, games, viewing pics, whatever.11. This the best cell phone for gaming on the market , period. The above features and OpenGL 3.0 which is part of Android 4.3 make it happen. Don't believe me? Read the reviews, watch the you tubes, and compared it for yourself.12. It doesn't just have GPS, it also uses A GPS (improved), and Glonass Satellites. DL a GPS satellite app, and you'll see it will access between 5 and 25 satellites at once depending on time of day and location.13. Got Knox? No, you don't. This phone provides business enterprise, and government level security for boot, VPN, etc., and comes in handy for privacy on public Wi-Fi. You don't have to use it, but it is there.14. The air command and air gesture features make the phone futuristic. How many phones do that?15. Is the screen too large for one handed operation? Yes, but so what? The tradeoff is worth it. Besides, Samsung now includes software to shrink it for one-handed so you get the best of both worlds.16. I have been using the original Galaxy Note, which is actually wider, wearing suit pants to jeans. Both phones fit fine in your pocket. Don't worry about it unless you wear skinny jeans.17. The TouchWiz UI is fine, and superfast now, but I prefer a 3rd party launcher - Go Launcher EX from the play store. Over a million users. So, the launcher is not a deciding factor in phone purchase for any Android manufacturer.There are a few things that Samsung needs to improve in my opinion. I don't know how many thousands of people need to tell them that putting the volume rockers directly opposite the power button is inconvenient for users. The Note 2 placement was better but still wrong.I do like the new speaker placement though. Its perfect for horizontal viewing because your hand channels the sound to the user. However, there should be two of them or a better one. It is Ok, just not great like the rest of the phone.This phone should also be waterproof right out-of-the-box. Not a scaled-down version, just waterproof the thing. Other manufacturers are doing it for their flagship phones. That means Samsung can do it too. Truth be known, we users never want to see another flagship phone that is not waterproof. It's doable, so please do it. Smoke it with that nano-whatever waterproofing stuff. You went to CES.All that said, I'm very happy, with the Note 3. IMHO the Note 3 is so powerful and functional, it is the first device I would classify as a hand held computer. As a professor, I researched it for days and used the original Galaxy Note for over a year now. There are other good phones, but the Note 3 does it in one package, and in most cases does it better, for the same flag-ship- phone price. I feel sorry for the fanboys and people believing advertising hype who don't research the market. They pay top dollar but don't get their money's worth. Amazon is a great place to get your money's worth and to find out user information. Thanks Amazon.Oh yeah, almost forgot to mention, it's a really good phone too.Recommendation - get a case for any phone, one that raises a bevel on the front glass, and try to find a good screen protector.",4878,0 +4879,"Didn't Charge the Phone + +Ordered two of these and they were shipped separately.

The next day, plugged our phones into this lipstick charger and my battery life actually went down 2%. I don't know why it doesn't charge up the phone. I read some other comments on here and a few said it has to be charged fully by the computer? I'm not sure what the exact difference would be- both are electrical power sources. But even if they are different I don't want to always have to charge this thing up with a computer. It also has no company name on this gadget, no symbols or markings of any sort.

Turns out, that smell was a hard drive frying. Once I figured that out I unplugged everything and waited.After a few hours, when I figured everything would have cooled down, I started testing my devices. One portable external drive still ""sort of"" works. I can see most of the file structure but copying attempts fail. The powered external hard drive mostly worked for a couple days and then quit. One portable hard drive never worked again. The optical drive still works, occasionally, but typically won't boot. Occasionally the printer works. The mice never worked again.

The good thing about a gadget shipped from a Chinese vendor is that it's possible to receive a phone that has a relative newer update of the OS than that advertised. For example, the one that I bought from lolbuy came with Jelly Bean 4.2.1, instead of the 4.1.2 in the description (btw, 4.1.2 is not Froyo, it's JB). Guess what, I confirmed my order with Amazon on Oct 17, and both the kernel & build number of the software were dated Oct 14... fresh from the oven, eh? The bad thing could be that you might want to return the item the same day you got it.48 hours into owning this phone:1. the speaker volume is OK, after adjusting the max value using the engineer mode;2. the gps acquires a lock in a matter of 15~30 seconds, depending whether I am outdoor or in my living room. The sensitivity is pretty amazing;3. I have rooted this device successfully using PDANet and a suitable driver;4. both the headset and the mic seem to work well without statics;5. antutu tests produce a score of 13,564 on stock rom, not the best of of its kind, but it's something I can live with;6. FM radio functions properly when the earphone is plugged in;7. most of my 1080p avi/divx/mp4/x264 clips, except some vc1 ones, play smoothly with vibrant colors without jitters or out of sync;8. the calibration app for the G-sensor on-board seems to work somehow;9. another app for calibrating the distance sensor also seems to interact with the relevant hardware attached, but I'm still fumbling with it;10. my 2 T-MO sim cards proved to be an easy plug-n-play for voice & text.

I had tried other Bluetooth headphones (Plantronics BackBeat GO 2 Bluetooth Wireless Stereo Earbuds - Retail Packaging - BlackandJayBird BlueBuds X Sport Bluetooth Headphones - Midnight Black) but the over the ear design of the Backbeat Fit really helps to keep them in place. I had been usingKlipsch Image S4 -II Black In-Ear Headphonesfor years, but wanted something wireless. When exercising, the cord would get tangled on the gym equipment or something else and pull the headphones out of my ears. Larger headphones that go over the top of my head were not an option, too big to run or do other cardio with. When I saw that Plantronics announced the Backbeat Fit at CES, I was checking for their retail release almost daily. They sound great, are loud enough for the gym and are very comfortable. The buttons are easy to operate while working out, and the Fit speaks the battery level when turning them on or pressing the power button which helps to know when they need a charge.UPDATE:After using the Backbeat Fit for many cardio sessions at the gym I can say these headphones are awesome! Not having a cord that gets tangled and pulls the headphones off my ears is very nice. I can just put the Backbeat Fit on my head and forget about them while working out, no need to constantly adjust them. With no cord also means that my phone or iPod does not need to be on my arm, but instead can just sit on top of the gym equipment while working out. For running outside, I still wear my iPod on my arm, but with no cord to get tangled, I forget about both the iPod and Backbeat fit and just run and enjoy the music.The Backbeat Fit will pair with multiple devices and connects quickly.

Having had a previous Samsung phone I had really high expectations for the new phone. Now if you are just a below average user I can see this phone being a great one, but if you like apps (like me) then it's a really bad choice.The moment I received it I started setting it up, all excited. But, it wasn't long before I realized that you are unable to move any apps over to your SD card. When I contacted Samsung about the issue, the ""customer service"" agent said that it's not a Samsung problem but the app makers are at fault and that all the apps are not made compatible with the Galaxy S3 because they were created before the S3's release.Which is a load of bull !I have had Motorola's, Iphone's, LG's, Nokia's, and previous Samsung phones and have never had issues with moving apps to the SD cards. Plus, three of the apps that were movable that I was trying to put on the SD card only came out a few days ago. LIARS ... that it is an issue with the apps and not their phone!The agent then went on to try to pacify me by saying he is a consumer too, and owns a S3 and he doesn't see an issue with Samsung not notifying the public that their phone is not up to par. If I had been told or read something from Samsung, when looking for a new phone, and found out that I was going to be unable to move any apps to the new 32GB SD card I just purchased, then I would have purchased a different phone.Another issue I encountered with my S3, is that my phone is supposed to be 16GB internal memory, but it's not ... it's only 12GB. Already hurting for space, I really needed those 4GB's. So with two movies and apps for work, school, weather, and personal enjoyment it's pretty much completely full. At least I can move my music and pictures over, but it's not that much help. In my head I keep hearing this repeating sentence, ""What a waste of time and money !""When I requested a refund or even just a different phone as a replacement the agent told me that Samsung is unable to do so, and that I'm sh** out of luck. In their minds they don't see anything that they have done as wrong and believe their phone to be perfect ! In my mind if you don't inform someone of a flaw and don't do anything on your end when they do discover that flaw ... then you have purposely deceived, committed fraud, and lied to that individual(s).Now if you just need a basic phone and don't have a lot of apps then this phone I'm sure would be a perfect fit for you. But, if you are like me and love your apps, movies, and other items then you either need to purchase the 32GB internal memory Galaxy S3 phone or move on to something else.Best of Luck to all you App lovers !",4900,1 +4901,"Works well + +Other reviews are showing that the product is build with poor quality and feels flimsy.

The wiREVO HSH200 was great but they are no longer available. My boyfriend and I have tried just about every other headset available since loosing the wiREVO. One word sums them up: RUBBISH! The Altec Lansing Backbeat 906 was the worst of them. The only controls it supported were volume + start/stop (one button for voice, another for music). It was useless for listening to audio while snowboarding or bicycling. It wasn't even acceptable for use while wandering in the woods. If I didn't hold the iPhone flat in the palm of my hand while walking the dog audio would drop out every couple seconds. I put up with it for too long.After a buying spree last year I'd given up on trying to find anything worthwhile. Luckily, my boyfriend was both determined and tired of hearing me complain about the backbeat. He ordered The LG Mobile HBS-700 this week. I got to stress test if for a few hours last night and it passed with flying colors. It's the first headset I've found that has good audio quality and even works while in motion outdoors. The LG has not only start/stop + volume controls but has track-forward/track-back and a separate button that activates the 'Voice Control' feature on the iPhone. From there you can tell the iPhone 3GS & iPhone 4 to play specific music and to dial people by name. I only used it for a few hours but ordered two immediately afterwards as gifts. It seemed to work perfectly in every way. For $60 it's a good deal. I recommend!",4903,0 +4904,"Next Best Thing To A Full Stereo System + +I bought this phone unlocked about a week or so ago and WOW. I'm partial to Samsung because of the feature set, but I wanted a phone that had ""umph"" when it came to music. This is the International Unlocked Version of the US'/T-Mobile's HTC Sensation 4G. And while the two are identical, the Beats by Dr. Dre Software/Hardware was the key factor in buying this version (as the T-Mobile version lacks the Beats Audio).First, the hardware is sturdy in the sense that it has weight to it. Unlike my Motorola's and Samsung's I have had in the past, the weight comes from it's metallic/ceramic like casing. And unlike Samsung which usually feels more plastic and thus lighter, I feel the weight of the HTC may play a factor someday in it falling out of a pocket or purse. Should you decide to by this, I recommend a case of some sort, just in case.This phone has the usual set of features as in other Android phones with Android 2.3. To my surprise however, as soon as I got the phone set up with Cellular and Wi-Fi, I was prompted to update to Android 4.0 or what's known as ""Ice Cream Sandwich""! After about 20 or so minute between downloading and installing, I had a brand new Android 4.0 phone with Beats Audio! I don't think the HTC Sensation at T-Mobile is updated yet? Even if it were, it would be bloated with T-Mobile branded software, which is almost always difficult to remove and wastes space in the memory. Thankfully, this unlocked International version does not have such software (as far as I can tell), leaving space for more music, apps, ect.A few hindrances for an otherwise great phone; 1) the Beats Audio software seems to only work with the native Music app. There's nothing wrong with that, except that I use Google Music to stream files that are not on my device. Something to keep in mind if you think that the Beats Audio is a deal breaker. 2) the device came with only an 8GB memory card. While that may be OK (last year), trying to load that large playlist of favorite music or take pictures with it's fantastic 8MP camera will be difficult as you will run out of space rather quickly. However, a 16 or even a 32 Gigabyte MicroSD isn't that difficult to find, especially on Amazon, but it's also something you need to factor in when considering this phone for purchase.Simply put, one of the better Android Phones out there. I highly recommend it!",4904,0 +4905,"Product as described + +Product as described, although a box and manual or something would've been nice. It works. Thankfully for a tween, so they managed to figure it out. Thanks.",4905,0 +4906,"Buy this one instead of the Goose White cradle!! + +I purchased one of these after purchasing a Goose White brand cradle for my Q10. Since the Q10 doesn't have charging points like the 9900/9930 and almost all the BBs before it, I needed a cradle to hold and charge my BB while sleeping. Yes, the original wall wart charging cord would have worked, but I wanted a cradle so I could see the phone display. So I purchased the Goose White cradle with high hopes. Long story not much shorter, it works but the tolerances are loose enough that you have to wiggle the Q10 to get the USB port to line up with the plug on the cradle. Getting the Q10 OUT of the Goose White cradle requires pushing on the top left corner of the phone, putting angled pressure on the USB port, until the phone slides enough that you can get a finger along side of the phone to move it the rest of the way off the cradle.So then I bought one of these. MUCH BETTER!!! The tolerances are tighter, so you can slip the Q10 into the slots and the USB port is lined up correctly with the plug. Press down, it clicks into place and starts charging. Removing the phone is easy too...just ""pinch"" the top and bottom of the phone with your thumb and index finger where the phone meets the top edges of the cradle. The phone will raise right up off the USB plug, and you're good to go.Admittedly, the phone display is sideways in the cradle, so if you have it set on ""clock"" while you sleep the numbers will be vertical instead of horizontal. That's the nature of the beast - the Q10 isn't designed to be used in landscape mode. And you're sleeping anyway, so who cares? Bottom line is this cradle is less expensive than the Goose White, easier to use, and you can get it in white if you have a white Q10 and are concerned about such things.",4906,0 +4907,"Spigen + +Extremely hard to apply without getting dust and bubbles under it.

Let's face it...good touch screens are going to cost a little more. I played it safe when I chose mine, and I'm glad I did. The LG500G is a very good bargain for what you pay.Audio quality is good, even through the speakerphone. I put a 4GB microSD card in it, but as yet, have not tried to use it as an MP3 player. EDIT: Works great as an MP3 player, displaying all ID3 tags and album cover art, if it is included in the original file. Shuffles and lets you create playlists. Audio quality seems to be pretty good. Plug it into an FM transmitter, and you can use it through your car's audio system. Best part: it also works ""hands free"" like this, allowing you to hear your phone conversation through the car stereo. Cool!Shoots 3GP video. Quality is not great, but it is better than not having a video recorder. Likewise with the camera. You can take pictures with it, but don't expect miracles. Utilitarian is the best word to describe it. If you have the software to convert videos to 3GP, you can actually UPLOAD your own videos to the phone to watch later. I found this one: Mobile Media Converter from Miksoft. Google it. Free, works on all platforms. Anything you can convert to 3GP with that program seems to work on this phone. A 22 minute video is about 25 mb, so you can estimate your video size as ""1mb per minute"" and get pretty close.Don't plan on stopping, resuming, fast forwarding or rewinding, though. EDIT: Holding down the left and right directional pad will seek video. The longer you hold, the faster it goes. It doesn't seek visually, rather, it freezes the last frame and shows the TIME at the bottom. Better than nothing, though, and means you can at least fast forward to where you left off so you can resume videos.Get yourself a data cord to hook it to your computer, otherwise, you'll go insane taking the back off and pulling the battery out to get to the microSD card. Once you get a memory card, the phone acts much like a USB jump drive, although Ubuntu recognizes it as a mobile media player.Since I've started playing around with it, I've found that the Opera browser is compatible with this phone. I tried several...1.X seems to be a bit primitive. 6.X is slick and polished, but will frequently crash due to out of memory errors. Opera Mini 4.3 seems to be a good compromise...it seems to work nicely all around. It does eat minutes rather quickly, so make sure you SAVE your frequently visited sites as much as possible to avoid having to search for them and incur extra minutes charges. Google Maps also works on it, but if you use the satellite view, it's not long before you run out of memory and the app crashes. Map view seems to work OK, though.Typing is much easier than what I thought it would be. I am a giant man with giant hands and I can type comfortably, if not speedily. One issue that I have, and perhaps someone can help me find an answer, is that when I try to type some double letters, I get symbols instead. For example, when I type double ""E's"", I get a Euro symbol. If anyone knows of a way to turn this off, I'd be grateful! Otherwise, typing is not a difficult chore at all. I love the positive clicks of the keypad SO much better than a touchscreen.After a well over a month, I'm still happy with the phone, which is something, considering I've NEVER been happy with a phone. Now, to peddle the wife's phone on eBay and get a second LG500G for her.EDIT 6/21/12: After nine months with the phone, I'm still as happy with it as the day I bought it. Works reliably and has enough features that it can get you out of a jam...for example, I used the Mobile Web and a Google Maps app I installed to locate a destination on a street that was NOT listed on my car's GPS. This got me close enough to find what I was looking for.Durability seems good. Mine's been dropped several times, a couple of times on pavement. The back popped off and the battery, back, and phone all went skidding across a parking lot in all directions. Picked it up, put it back together, and it worked fine, even if it was a little scratched up after that.Can check my Gmail using the Opera browser, too. That's handy.If you're the type who needs a phone primarily with occasional texting and web browsing, it's hard to beat Tracfone and the LG500G. If you're the type who needs a mobile web browser/texting machine that also functions as a phone, I'd look elsewhere.Again, long term, I've been very happy with this phone. Since the price has come down in the intervening months, I'm tempted to get another one and keep it on hand to replace this one when it finally quits working.EDIT 11/24/12 - I just ordered the LG500G's replacement. The ol' 500 has worked almost flawlessly from day one, and it packs a lot of punch for the money. But, pre-paid phone technology has progressed by leaps and bounds since I got this one a year and a half ago, so it's time to move on. I don't even know if I'll offer it for sale, as this phone new is now selling for just over ten dollars on Amazon, and is ubiquitous enough to be found for cheap on dollar store shelves. I'd still recommend this phone for anyone wanting a basic phone with a few nice features with a full keyboard and in a compact package.The best endorsement I can think of is that I am buying another LG.",4924,0 +4925,"good concept + +love these blue tooth shades, connects easy to my samsung note 2 ,audio is loud and clear at top volume.

That said, this looks great on my phone. I had a few issues with getting particles stuck to the backside of the protector while I was putting it on, but tape comes in handy to get it off. I got it perfectly placed and it looks great. There is a little gap in between where the screen protector is and where the silicone case is so you can see some of the phones original color, but I think that it looks perfectly fine. The screen protector is a matte finish which is different, but nice when you are in direct sunlight. The only real issue that I had with this was that it did get scratched by my keys the first time I put my phone in my pocket, leaving a noticeable line, but it doesnt bother me. Overall really happy!Update October 30th, 2013: the case is still holding up strong. Its the only thing that has really worn off was the printed on company label, but there is red behind that so it's fine. The screen protector is holding up okay, the matte finish has started to come off, but only on the area where I usually scroll with my thumbs. That being said it is only noticeable when the screen is off. When it is on i cannot tell that the finish is wearing off. Taking into account that I have had this on my phone for almost a year now I cannot complain. Still happy with my red phone and I still get people saying they wish they could have gotten a red s3!

The Belking Candy Case is thin enough to avoid creating excessive bulk. The profile of the phone hardly changes at all.Another nice feature is it's snag free design. In my experience, some cases that come in multiple parts tend to get hung in threads in the pocket or tend to adopt stray hairs here and there. This does not.Installation is extremely simple. Just make sure all corners are fully pressed into the case to ensure the right seal.All the buttons and all the keys on the keyboard are easily reached. Again, some larger cases require slipping your finger at an odd angle in order to reach keys or require extra force to poke through to reach the power button. This Belkin avoids those frustrations.The only negative I see is how slick this phone is. Strangely, it's not so much residual moisture (like from washing your hands) that is a problem. My hands are very dry and this case makes me a little nervous when I hold it. I'm finding myself apply extra pressure to avoid the ""Oops"" moment.Overall, this is a very fine case.

To further check the Braven, I paired it with my phone. They discovered each other, and partially paired; I say partially because music would play, but the Braven wouldn't work as a speakerphone. Again, the phone works fine with Bt headsets.

I stepped down from a AT&T; smart phone because spending $200 a month on cell service just bothered me. Do I miss some of the functionality -- absolutely. Do I miss it $2400 worth a year. No. With the triple minutes bonus I think I've cut my cell phone bill annually by $2000. Well worth it.This phone was easy to set up. It joined my wifi network on the first try. That makes the web surfing portion more manageable because it doesn't use the Tracfone minutes when attached to a wifi. I was able to export my contacts from my Droid into the Tracfone -- took two tries. The texting keyboard is actually better than the smart phone. The touch screen is very responsive and it's big enough for older eyes. That battery life is incredible. I was used to charging my smart phone every night. This thing runs for days on one charge. I did use the music player a couple of times and that does shorten the battery life a bit.Initially I set up all of my email accounts on this phone, but the quantity of mail I receive makes it impractical to pick them all up here as Tracfone charges .3 minutes for every message. It was going to be expensive when I was away from my house. Now I'm picking up only my business mail and that works great! The message here is the phone of capable of multiple email accounts but you might not want to do that for cost reasons.There are very good instructions on the internet for setting up the features and importing documents.

And for someone who has owned an iPhone and many different Androids I can tell you it is more than worth the switch. Here are some key reasons why:-Even on what is considered slower hardware these phones run amazingly fast. Feels faster than an iPhone or an Android hands down.-Great battery life. Even when I'm streaming Netflix on the go I'm not really worried about the battery. With general use it outperforms other smartphones out there.-The OS itself it a joy to use. Simple, intuitive, and more alive. No need for widgets, install an app and pin it's live tile to the main screen and you get instant access to info that you want and need easily. No going into apps, no swiping over to your widgets. You pin whatever you want to the home screen, be it a contact, photo album, song, ebay bid item, calendars. Its simply amazing how much information you can access without ever even going into an app and I love it.-Built in X-Box Live and Zune. Having a system built into a phone for online gaming etc that has been tested and proven for years is great. And although the Zune never quite took off you will be amazed at how great it is to use on this phone. And it's better than the music players available on Android, and way more intuitive than the iPhone music player. Hands down, these phones have the lead on music and games.-Dedicated camera button. Access your camera even when the phone is locked. Android and iOS have added this recently but Windows Phone does it better. Just hold down the camera button and you can access the camera instantly without even having to unlock your phone.-Built in Bing Search. May seem like a gimmick, but its powerful and easy to use. Just hit the search button at the bottom of the phone to use it (or if you really don't like Bing the search button can be changed to use another search provider website). When you do you have access to Local Scout, which uses your GPS to show you what is near you. FInd Gas Stations, Dining, interesting hotspots in the area. You get Music search which listens to music and gives you the name of the song. Bing Vision, which gives you the ability to translate text without typing it in, find an item by its barcode, scan QR Codes, and find DVD and Books online by just scanning the cover. As well as voice search, you get everything you need for search without ever even downloading an app.-Built in FM Radio. This may not seem like a big deal, but nobody else really has this in their phone and its great to have. If you don't like carrying around a huge music collection and don't want to stream music over an app just listen to the radio. Less battery is used and you get easy access to whatever local channels are available.I could go on and on but these are just some of the main points to get this phone, or any Windows Phone really. HOpefully this helps you make the decision, you won't be disappointed.App Suggestions:-For Photo Editing, try Fantasia Painter. You can do pretty much anything you could ever want to a photo and then some. Its powerful and easy to use.-For Pandora, since there is no official Pandora App use Radio Controlled. Its a great App and way better than the standard Pandora Apps I've used.-Ringtones, use easyRing&Music;, its a great ringtone app that even lets you download full songs and trim them down to make a custom ringtone.

Seems like it's well constructed and not cheap like other products I have purchased.",4982,0 +4983,"Great Features, Abysmal Hardware Quality, and No Support + +I purchased a Samsung Galaxy Note II last November from a reputable online retailer here in the US. Last week, not even ten months after the original purchase, the phone stopped working.When I try to power up my phone, it displays the banner screen ('Samsung Galaxy Note II GT-N7100'), but then it stops there. It never leaves the banner screen, it never dims, it's just stuck there.I've tried removing/replacing the battery, SIM card, and flash RAM card, I've tried (unsuccessfully) to get into Recovery Mode, all of these with and without the phone plugged into the charger. Nothing I try works.I contacted Samsung USA, only to be told that Samsung USA will not support the phone because it originated in the UK. When I contacted Samsung UK, they informed me that they will not support their devices when used outside their country, and advised that I contact Samsung USA or my retailer. Of course, the retailer won't help me - they didn't manufacture the product.For $645, I purchased a nice phone that served me well. Through no fault of my own, it has inexplicably died, and Samsung will not even discuss the problem with me.As you can imagine, I am extremely disappointed in Samsung. While their products are arguably the best in the Android world, their interest in their customers - and repeat business - seems to be very limited. I have never witnessed such blatant neglect of responsibility for a product this new, costing this much.Why would I ever want to buy another Samsung product - much less recommend Samsung products to those I know - if this is how they treat their customers?I own a Samsung monitor and a Samsung TV. I sure hope they last longer than my phone. Because of my experience with this phone, I have little faith in Samsung standing behind any of their products.My advice to everyone is to AVOID Samsung products. This company is not worthy of your trust.",4983,0 +4984,"Most perfect screen protector! + +Never have I had a screen protector go on so perfectly without any bubbles.

I have had the holster since the iPhone 4S was released, and have clipped it onto my belt nearly every day since then. The iPhone fits perfectly into the holster, which is lined with a high quality suede material that keeps the device safe, clean, and secure. The holster may or may not be real leather, I'm not sure, but I know it feels and looks real. The entire holster, inside and out, has withstood the test of time and is still in perfect condition despite everyday use. Other reviewers bought the holster and somehow thought that their iPhone would fit into it despite already having a case on it. This holster is designed for a ""naked"" iPhone, which is how the iPhone is designed to be used. I honestly don't see why people stick ugly, bulky cases on their beautiful iPhones. If you're careful with your iPhone when using it, that's all you need to worry about. When it's in this holster it is very, very safe. Some reviewers complain that it is difficult to remove their phone from the holster. This is very true. The edges of the holster create a very tight fit for the iPhone, therefore it is nearly impossible to remove it from the case. That's why there's an opening at the bottom of the holster, where the user places their fingers and pushes upward, which pushes the iPhone upward, which in turn opens the flap and allows the user to remove the iPhone. It is very simple, and the iPhone can be holstered and drawn in less than one second.The holster looks great, feels great, and is durable. If you plan to use your iPhone without any additional cases, this is the perfect holster. I hope Incipio makes one for the iPhone 5.",4988,0 +4989,"I'd love to give this item a higher rating, but... + +...it never arrived. Had to have Amazon refund my money. The worst part was that this was a Christmas gift for someone and I was empty handed! Beware when ordering cell phone accessories through Amazon - apparently they have shipping problems.",4989,1 +4990,"EXCELLENT case! Don't buy an iPod Touch 4g without buying a Sonix Snap Case to protect it! + +I received this product today, along with my new iPod Touch 4g 64GB.I wanted to put this case on right away so that my new iPod Touch will stay in pristine condition persistently. I selected this case because it offers protection for both the back and front of the iPod, and is the slimmest case I could find that offers the most coverage of the easily scratch-able surfaces of the iPod Touch.CONS:The first thing I noticed is that THIS COMES WITH NO INSTRUCTIONS FOR APPLICATION!!!So, without any guidance from the manufacturer, I decided that I should apply the FRONT screen protector first, before snapping on the back part.The screen protector comes sandwiched between two protective films. It was kind of hard to figure out which side was the sticky side from the labels they attached. The label on one side says ""(1) Ultra-Clear: Please peel off this mask before application"". The label on the other side says ""(2) Ultra-Clear: Please peel off this protective film from the membrane.""Rather cryptic of them, but it seemed the best thing to do was to peel off the one labeled ""(1)"" first. This turned out to be the sticky side. So, I immediately attempted to apply this to the face of my brand new, just out of the box iPod. I first blasted the face of my iPod with some canned air just to make sure there were no particles on it that would create bubbles under the film.Unfortunately, getting the alignment JUST right turned out to be VERY challenging. I had to pull back and re-apply the film 7-8 times before I got it aligned just right, and by this time, the mask lost some of its adhesion, and somehow managed to attract several small dust particles to itself, in spite of my efforts (that film is like a dust magnet, and once the dust is on there you can't get it off). The final result is pitiful. There are now DOZENS of small to large bubbles under the skin that cannot be removed, even if I pull the film back and re-apply it. It is now totally ruined and useless and will have to be thrown away.Disturbingly, all 4 sides of the front protective film seem to touch the sides of the back case, causing the edges to be pressed upwards. It seems like it should have been cut slightly smaller to prevent this from happening. In retrospect, I should probably have attached the back part FIRST before attempting to apply the front, as it would possibly have helped me guide the screen protector film into place. Too bad no instructions were included that might have suggested this to me before I ruined the screen protector film...PROS:The quality of the back piece on the other hand is VERY nice! It's much better than I expected! It has a nice feel, and snaps on very easily if you slide the top end into the case first. It looks and feels great, and doesn't add much bulk to the iPod Touch. (Getting it off again is much more difficult!) I don't think anyone could possibly design a better case than this to protect the back of the iPod Touch 4g.Incidentally, some of you might be interested to know that the iPod Touch 4g WITH the Sonix snap case attached to it, fits perfectly into my Sena Elega protective leather case with belt/pocket clip made for the iPod Touch 2g! (The Sena Elega is another iPod Touch accessory that I HIGHLY recommend:Sena Elega Pouch for the Apple iPod Touch 1G and 2G (Black))NOTE: My Sena Elega case was made for the iPod Touch 2g, not the 4g! Sena also makes an Elega case designed specifically for the 4g, but I seriously doubt the 4g version of the Sena Elega would fit on the iPod Touch 4g WITH the Sonix case attached because the iPod Touch 4g (without a case on it) is much smaller than the 2g, but as I said, the Elega made for the iPod Touch 2g fits perfectly on the iPod Touch 4g WITH the Sonix case attached.So, I rate the Sonix Snap Case for the iPod Touch 4g 3 stars overall. 5 stars for the back case, and ZERO stars for the protective film that will now have to be thrown away.I have uploaded several photos of the front, back, and sides to the image gallery for this product so you can see how both of the pieces look on my iPod Touch 4g.UPDATE: I continue to be so impressed with the quality of the rear portion of this case, that I have decided to increase my rating to 4 stars, in spite of the screen protector problems that I encountered. (I ended up throwing my screen protector film away because it got ruined when I tried to install it) This product would get 5 stars if they had bothered to provide instructions for how to properly apply the front screen protector. That being said, the rear portion of this case is so well designed that it almost makes up for the other issue. This is the case you want if you want your iPod Touch to look good for a long time, while still staying nice and slim. It's worth paying $20 for this even if you end up having to throw the screen protector away as I did. I can't imagine anyone could design a better case than this to protect the rear. With the case on, it looks really good, and has a nice feel to it. The overall size of the iPod Touch 4g WITH the Sonix snap case on it is roughly the same as the iPod Touch 2g, and not bulky at all.UPDATE 2 (Oct 25, 2010): Lenntek (the maker of the Sonix Snap case) has just sent me 2 replacement films for the front of my iPod Touch. I haven't tried them yet, but they seem to be cut slightly smaller than the old one, and thus, I expect that these will work better. I must say that Sonix tech support is very attentive and considerate. For this reason, I have elevated my rating to 5 stars. My iPod Touch continues to remain in perfect condition due to the protection afforded by this case. I believe that this case is worth 5 stars even if you have to throw away the screen protector film! (Be sure to get a new protector film if you do... You don't want to scratch the glass screen!)IMPORTANT NOTE: If you want to be able to take your iPod out of the case repeatedly, this case is not for you. Once you get it on, it is hard to get off. However, taking the case off is a BAD idea anyway. All it takes is ONE time of setting your iPod down on a table or other surface that has just a little bit of grit on it, or into a pocket with keys/dirt, and your iPod will become seriously and permanently scratched. My advice is to buy this case, and leave it on at all times. Sure, it's fun to show off how neat and thin the iPod Touch 4g is without the case on, but it's NOT worth the risk!UPDATE 3: After 8 months of ownership - I use my iPod Touch 4g, with a Sonix Snap case attached to it, every day and the back case is still in wonderful shape! It looks great, feels great, and is completely intact, with no chips or cracks. I don't know why others are experiencing problems with chips or cracks... Perhaps they are removing and re-attaching the case repeatedly? I don't recommend doing that as it really doesn't seem to be designed for that type of use. It is best to ""snap"" it on and forget it. I have not removed the case one time since I first snapped it on, which is perhaps why it still in such great shape? Anyway, I still highly recommend this case. (and I recommend that you don't try to take it off after you put it on!) I also keep my iPod safely tucked away in a Sena Elega case when not in use, which protects it further. I recommend that you do the same. An iPod Touch is too valuable (and expensive) to leave it unprotected!",4990,0 +4991,"no nfc or s beam? + +Well I loved this phone until I discovered that nfc and s beam are nowhere to be found on this device.

I travel quite a bit all over the USA and I virtually always get a good usable signal.
