Nice toy, awful phone
Got mine in October '03. Loved the features. Great price with rebate.Pros:1) Full keyboard - aids text input and beats a regular number pad hands down.2) MP3 player - Can use MP3 files as ring tones, and just store songs on the memory card. Way cool.3) Speaker - good for speaker phone and listening to music if headphones aren't handy.4) Games - when you need to kill some time, the games are nice to have.5) Internet access - decent net access, didn't use it much, though.6) Menu - fairly intuitive and easy to use.7) FM radio - another way to pass the time enjoyably.8) Voice capture - good for making quick verbal notes.Cons:1) Non-backlit keypad - impossible to use when dialing at night, especially combined with...2) Small buttons - the dialing buttons should be larger. Easy to misdial, especially at night.3) Center 4-way menu button - had to press it more than once to scroll down the menus. Must be a bad contact under the button. Extremely aggravating.4) Poor speaker volume - even the shrillest ring tones don't penetrate a normal winter coat when I'm wearing it. Lost many calls that I never did with old phone. Hard to hear music with speaker through the normal din of all but the quietest areas.5) Lost audio on calls - Often, a call would ring in, I would see who it was on caller-id, but when I picked it up, I couldn't hear the other person. Called back the other person, who said I could be heard fine. Only happened on incoming calls.6) Poor earpiece design - the angle of the earpiece in the case makes it hard to position it flush against the ear opening. Poor volume means you have to cover the entire ear opening to get a clean sound.7) Proprietary SD memory - If you take out the battery, you can pop out the 64mb memory card, but the unit won't take inexpensive standard SD cards, like a 256mb or 512mb card. Why? Nokia requires a special thin SD card only they are selling. Bah!Conclusion: It's a nice toy and can waste away your idle hours with blissful fun. You could run a mini cable from the headphone jack to a set of powered computer speakers and have a nice MP3 system. But doesn't cut it as a phone. I need a superior phone, and the rest is icing on the cake. Thought I could have both with the 3300. Nope.I'm getting a Motorola V300. It's an outstanding phone. Tiny. Features-a-plenty, and the rebates cover the entire phone and even pay me $51 when bought through Amazon and T-Mobile.Avoid AT&T; Wireless! One month of calling on the 3300, no live customer service or email responses whatsoever. Shame on AT&T;. | 0negative

dont buy this!
don't buy this eforcity screen protector. it scratched my NEW blackberry pearl 8130. it also removed a bit of the black coating on the blackberry pearls display. the phone was brand new. now it looks like a refurbished unit! there was no invoice/receipt included with the order either. be very wary of this company. i await a refund on my bank card. | 0negative

not worth the low price
I purchased this item in November and it lasted app 3 weeks before the clip fell off of the holster. Even though it was inexpensive, it wasn't worth the price. | 0negative

keep shopping
I found the ear piece to be very awkward on the ear and the buttons were difficult to use. I used it for about a month and gave up on it. Sound wise it was hard to hear if there was any background noise. | 0negative

Not even a public beta
Bought this phone yesterday (not from Amazon).Amazing little device with a lot of innovative features. For example, the phone notifies the user of failure to connect to a WiFi network by crashing and rebooting. A dialog box pops up after the reboot to tell me that the phone restarted to "improve performance." Same thing happened when I tried to scan in a friend's business card, tried to fetch my email, take a photo, sync by bluetooth... the list continues. In fact, in just one day the phone restarted itself to 'improve performance' so many times, the performance must be getting really great by now.Maybe a firmware update will help? Downloaded the Sony Ericsson Update Service (2.6.4.9). Ran it on my XP box at work - once installed, it played a Sony Ericsson eyecatch animation, then crashed with a 'java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException', but at least it kept planing the eyecatch over and over. Ahhhh. Tried it on my XP box at home - this time the installer came up with an empty window which stayed empty. No luck there. Finally tried it on an old Windows 200 laptop - this time it worked, recognised the phone, downloaded about 150M of something from the internet, pretended to flash the phone with new firmware. The result - same firmware, and more 'improving performance' messages.The bottom line is - it is a very promising device. The hardware is good, the software is not even a public beta quality - proof of concept prototype at best. Not ready for public consumption in any shape or form. This seems to be a trend among smartphone manufacturers - release the product once the hardware is finished, promise to finish the software in new firmware releases, stop releasing firmware updates as a superseding model is in the works - leaving the consumer with a kind of working device. Sort of. Sometimes. | 0negative

Love it....Would love it more with a Mute button.
Very happy with this so far. Set up was easy - turned it on, paired it with my phone (Treo 755) and was off and running. Easy to connect and transfer calls to/from. Sound quality is excellent, volume is very good. (I need to turn it down more often than turn it up). I've had it for about 2-3 weeks, using it ~2 hours a week straight out of the box and finally decided I should charge it for the first time.Only quibble I have is the lack of a Mute function. Especially for a car-based speakerphone and business use (calling in to tele-conference meetings during the morning commute) a simple way to mute the line would be good. Escpecially given how cumbersome the Mute function is on the Treo with multiple key-clicks and menus needed. | 1positive

It works, but could be better.
This is the only bluetooth headset that I have used, so I cannot compare it to any others. I bought it because it was cheap, and because of Motorola's (good) reputation. As far as basic functionality; it works.Good:- I can hear better than I can with the cell phone; I now use it in noisy situations.- Other people seem to hear me well.- The batteries last a long time.- It's small.Bad:- It feels awkward on my ear. It has never fallen off, but it feels like it's going to.- The call start/stop button doesn't click in a way that lets you know that you have pushed it.Overall, it does the job, didn't cost much, but I wish it would stay on my ear more securely. | 1positive

Nearly perfect for voice recognition
Recently I acquired Dragon NaturallySpeaking (DNS) speech recognition software and was, as a consequence, confronted with the problem of selecting input and output devices.DNS comes supplied with a headset which is, unfortunately, not very useful. It was neither comfortable nor was it accurate. I quickly learned that there are several sources of inaccuracy: 1) the intrinsic accuracy of the microphone itself and 2) the means of attachment to the computer.The attachment can be either digital via a USB port or analog via a sound card. Many of the "onboard" soundcards are not well shielded against electrical noise and, as a consequence, they degrade the signal-to-noise ratio and with that, the accuracy desired for speech recognition. I did not want to add a well-shielded soundcard to my system. Additionally my computer is located in a fairly noisy environment with conversation and music in the background. In this environment, noise cancellation, directionality, and proximity are important factors in selecting the microphone. These considerations led me to buy a USB headset.My first choice, an over-the-head stereo headset, had everything I wanted functionally. I quickly discovered that it had one major drawback -- it was terribly uncomfortable for prolonged use. It was too heavy and after about 10 minutes, my ears got too hot for comfort. That lesson having been learned, I went for the ultra-comfortable Plantronics Voyager 510 Bluetooth headset. The comfort and wireless convenience of this headset was superb. It filled the bill in every way but one -- the microphone boom was too short to "hear" me speaking clearly. This sharply decreased the speech recognition accuracy.This led me to the CS 50 USB. It is as accurate as the stereo headset, has the wireless convenience and almost as much comfort as the Voyager. Plantronics claims a range of something like 200 feet -- I have only tried it as far as 100 feet at which distance it performs flawlessly. With the supplied software, it integrates well with Skype and I presume with other Soft Phones.In the best of all possible worlds, Plantronics would create a headset with the wonderfully pliable over-the-ear loop it uses for the Voyager 510. Because the CS 50 attaches to its ear- this is loop by clipping into a plastic ring, I am considering trying to adapt this ring to the ear loop from a 510.Considering the comfort, performance and, convenience I believe it to be well worth its, not inconsiderable, price. | 1positive

Don't Buy
This product won't recognize my phone, even though it says SLVR L7 (my phone) in the title. The USB cable won't fit into the USB port on my computer because there is part of the plastic molding sticking out into the socket, so I could only connect my phone using an extension USB cable from my printer. Once I figured that out my computer recognizes that my phone is plugged in, but the Motorola Phone Tools program still won't recognize it. | 0negative

Again, great product, but unreliable shipping/communication
Item was good, but took twice as long as to arrive (over 3 weeks) as stated by Bargain Cell. Order elsewhere if you need the item inside of a month. They also charge higher shipping rates for these accessories than are set out on the amazon.com website. No bargain! | 0negative

Great Audio, Crappy Earhook
I found this phone to be comfortable and the sound quality is great. The enormous defect of this phone is the earhook. I can get it to conform well to my ear and it doesn't move. However, both earhooks broke very easily after about 4 months total.Now I have a great earphone which isn't hands free, and thus useless. | 0negative
|
betrays its purpose: mobility
Although the sound quality was excellent, the volume is really low and combined with the over-the-ear design it results in its usefulness while driving or doing outdoor activities, when the handsfree function is required, therefore although a nice piece of equipment, it just doesn't delieverwhat it's supposed to. I purchased mine from Amazon, which i considered a serious seller, but after i took it to a repair shop after dropping it in coffee, the guy laughed at me and showed me its VERY cheap (<$2)ERICSSON speaker! so, since when does Motorola use ericsson components in their headsets? | 0negative

Voyager 510 Tops the Others
Though I sometimes experience a delay when answering a call on my Treo 650, it seems this is a function of the phone and not the headset. Compared to any other bluetooth headset I've owned, I like the Voyager 510 best. | 1positive

Didn't work
The electrical charger does not work. I bought two, and neither of them worked. The car charger seems to work. The case fits. But the main charger doesn't work, and that's the reason why I bought the sets (one for my sis, and one for me). I'd return it if it was worth it, but shipping cost more than the product. | 0negative
|
Get what you paid for
The charger does what it's supposed to do but it doesnt stay put in my vehicle outlet. I have to push it in while it charges the phone. I thought all outlets were the same size (car lighter outlets). If you can drive and push in the adapter to charge your phone, at the same time, then this is for you. Otherwise go with the phone company brand car chargers. | 0negative

Lots of background noise, doesn't fit well
This headset was a bit of a disappointment as it has a lot of background noise, sounds a little fuzzy and doesn't stay snug to the ear. | 0negative

Fits better than any other bluetooth I've tried
I have very small ears and have a hard time finding headphones or ear pieces that don't fall off or out. This Plantronics Bluetooth stays on extremely well thanks to the customizable ear buds and flexible over-ear piece. The one downfall (and reason I didn't rate it 5 stars) is that it begins to hurt the back of my ear after about an hour of wear. Because it's so tight, the hard piece tends to put too much weight or pressure on the back cartilage. Overall, very good value for what I paid and perfect for short commutes in the car or brief conference calls. | 1positive

Works awesome w/ Treo 650
Prior to ordering the Plantronics, I went through 2 Motorola HS850's and was pretty disappointed. Looked on the Palm site (...) to see that the the Moto, Jabra are not fully compatible w/ the Treo, but Plantronics is.The Voyager 510 works just as I expected it to. Long battery life, directs all calls (incoming and outgoing) to the headset automatically with out having to press the MF button multiple times (like you have to w/ HS850). It's comfortable and sounds awesome; clear and much louder than the Moto 850 - in fact the volume is so good I frequently have to turn it down. The range is great as I've never run into problems where it's cut out or sounded bad.In short, not the "coolest" looking BT headset on the market but the functionality is very impressive. If you're looking for a great sounding headset that works, this one is a great choice (ESPECIALLY if you're a Treo owner!) | 1positive

Good sound, poor design
No defect in the product's communication function, just in the design. The over-the-ear hook is too thick to share space with my glasses and made my ear sore. The function button is too small and very fiddly - hard to press without jamming the speaker even further into my ear, which brings me to the third problem: The protruding speaker pushed the tragus forward and made it sore too. One positive: The people on the other end of the line said the sound quality of this headset was better than the Motorola 500 I've been using. They'll just have to get over it, because I can't deal with a sore ear. | 0negative

Works great
I have to think that some of the other reviewers have older phones, and therefore problems with the unit. It's my first bluetooth headset, but I couldn't be happier.P.S. People dissin' it because it doesn't work 25 feet from the phone or because it doesn't stay on your head when jogging? I guess I'm not as adventurous with my cell phone as some others... | 1positive

Poor sound and poorer design.
I don't know what the people who said these things sound good have listened to before, but these sound terrible! Maybe its ok for a phone conversation, but for listening to music the range is really quite bad and uneven. They sound kind of tinny. I know there exist better earbuds.To top things off, for some reason Jabra decided to make the cord lengths of each earbud different! Not just a little, nearly a full 12" difference. This is rediculous. When wearing them, the microphone/button doesn't hang in the center, but to the side, and the left bud's cord hangs down and flops around all over the place. It's incredibly annoying and I can't figure out any purpose it would serve.The overall length is simply too short. I can't keep my cell phone in my jean pocket and the earbuds on because its constantly yanking on my ear. Maybe if they put that extra 12" of cord *below* the microphone, these things would be tolerable.I'll be investing in a 2.5mm->3.5mm adapter to use my Sennheiser PX200s instead. | 0negative

This phone stinks.....Literally!
After a few months I noticed a really BAD smell coming from the dialpad of the phone. I tried cleaning it with everything and nothing worked. I had no idea how the phone picked up the smell.....I was worried that for some inexplicable reason it was coming from.....moi? (I smoke) But much to my amazement a friend of mine was experiencing the same problem to the point that she ended up buying another phone. I then decided to google "Motorola Razr Bad Smell" and sure enough, there were a NUMBER of hits from people reporting the same thing....If you want to buy this phone...very cute, very sexy, very slim....make sure you carry a bottle of perfume with you because the smell becomes very, very annoying.Would I buy another one??? Nope | 0negative

Plantronics 665 Bluetooth Headset
I have used Motorolla Bluetooth Headsets before and they are incredibly bulkly and ugly. The 665 is sleek and elegant looking. The sound quality is very good, every thing that I expected. The 655 includes a house charger but not the 665, I think that is the only technical fault. It doesn't make sense to charge it in the car cause thats when you need it, so the only other option is to charge it on the computer. The ear gel tips finish pretty quickly and I have already bought the replacements. I believe that the 655 offers more features, should have bought the 655 instead of the 665. | 1positive
|
Broken Ear Loop
The headset is a good one. Comfortable to wear. People on the other end report a clear connection. But the plastic ear loop split, exposing the wires beneath the loop after just under 2 years. People now report a muffled connection. The slotted ear bud is now falling out of the headset too. I question the long term durability. Be prepared to buy a new one every two years | 1positive

UNimpressed
I was so psyched when I got this, but pretty much everyone i talk to tells me they constantly hear themselves echoing whenever i'm using the H3. They wind up begging me to turn it off which isn't as simple as it should be and then viola! the echo stops. Reading all these reviews I can tell i'm not the only one having this problem, so i guess getting it replaced isn't going to do much good. I bought it online so i'm guessing returning this isn't going to be simple. That's my 2 cents. Try something else. | 0negative

Damaged dashboard
I did not get this product on Amazon, instead had received it as a free promotional item. That said, I experienced many of the problems other reviewers had with the mat rolling up at the corners and bubbling up. For a free promotional product, that did not bother me so much. However after several months of not using it, I decided to remove the mat. It left a big greasy mark on my dashboard (textured hard black plastic). No cleaning or car-interior-specific products (or solvents) have been able to remove the stain. I am posting this review as a warning to others...prolonged use can damage the finish of your dashboard!! If anybody else has had the same experience and managed to get the stain out, let me know what you did! | 0negative

Highly recommended
Have had treo 650 (cingular) for about 4 months now. It has a few flaws/bugs but overall very happy with purchase. Flaws: prone to soft resets (reboot) every once in a while (although i think this was caused by interaction with free IM software I downloaded) and very very low volume on phone when on call. This problem mitigated by using wireless headset or wired earpiece. Then volume is louder. Otherwise, super happy. Great screen resolution, decent web surfing, etc. | 1positive

Its Perfect ! (edited: after 2 months use)
[ORIGINAL REVIEW 3/15/06]: In my opinion, this is one of the best headsets I've seen or used. I've had Jabra 200, 250 before, and I do believe Jabra has done well in this market. Its unbelievably small. I was surprised to see that it is smaller than what it appeared to be in the pics.I am trying to use it without the loop that goes behind the ear, and it seems to be OK, though not the best hold, but one can get used to it. But with the loop it fits snug and you can forget that you are wearing it since it so light ! I would recommend this headset for its design, quality, SIZE, easy of use, and functionality.On a side note, I was using a Bluetooth 1.1 headset (Jabra 250) with my Bluetooth 1.2 phone, and I notice that this Bluetooth 1.2 headset (JX10) work noticably better than the previous one. Bottom line, if you have a BT 1.2 phone, try to use a BT 1.2 headset and get the advantage of the 1.2 protocol enhancements.[EDITED REVIEW 5/23/06]: I have been using the Jabra JX10 for more than 2 months now, and still like it, so am Not lowering my 5 star rating. However, I found a few irks that I'd like to share:1) I recently bought the Plantronics Voyager 510 and found Plantronics had a noticeable better range (distance away from phone without static) than Jabra JX10. But Jabra JX10 is significantly smaller than Plantronics Voyager so this range issue is acceptable to me.2) Although you can use the Jabra JX10 without the wire loop, I managed to drop it (on the carpet, phew!) while walking when wearing 'without' the wire loop. I always use the wire loop now.Bottom line: For the SIZE, good battery time, good buttons placement, USB chargeable, style, acceptable call quality (though limited range) I still like the Jabra JX10 over all other headsets available today. | 1positive

phone case
The phone was delivered on a timely manner, however it was missing the detachable belt clip.I recieved it a week later after contacting the seller.I was very unhappy with the product.... I had a previous MOTOROLA RAZR case and this does not appear to be the same quality. I used the original one for apprx 3-4 years and although I realize this might not be the status quo. I didn'T expect the back to separate within several days of usage so it can no longer be used as it was intended.Iam back to where I was initially, looking for a case... Lynn | 0negative

Crap Phone and Customer Service
PalmOne is an example of a company that doesn't care about its customers. I purchased one of these phones and it kept shutting off the wireless signal with the slightest bump. I contacted the service department by phone and after about a 30 minute wait, was connected with a representative who said a new phone would be en route within a few weeks. After 3 months and no less than 8 emails to customer service and many phone calls of waits that exceeded 45 minutes without speaking with anyone, I gave up. I finally got a replacement a few months ago, and now I am having problems with screen resolution, text messages received under different names than the person who sent them, dropped calls and poor signal. PalmOne can't stay in business with this type of product support - good luck if you decide to waste your money on this crap. | 0negative

disappointing sound volume
I was surprised with the low volume level, especially after reading the reviews here. With the volume on my cell turned all the way up, the earpiece is still pretty quiet, and I even have trouble hearing some people at all. However, I am using the headset with an LG VX3300, which I suspect has a low powered external jack. But, even with a $10 inline Sony earpiece (with a regular earbud that doesn't go into the ear canal), the volume is higher. Also, people on the other end of the line hear me more clearly when I'm not using the headset. | 0negative

ZOMG GET THESE!
Ok, so one out of 5 crimped completely wrong but that could of been the crimper or simply an anomoly that would happen with any plug. Aside from that, these worked great.

Microphone too soft
I use this headset with both my V3 and my OS X computer. The microphone does not pick up enough sound. When using the headset with my V3 it works, and people can hear me, but they often complain that I am very soft. When paired up with my OS X computer, I turn the microphone gain all the way up, but it is still too soft to be usable with skype. I wish this had hardware button to increase the gain on the microphone. | 0negative

Great overall phone
I bought this phone over the Nokia N82. If I had $$$ to spare I would have bought the N82. However as I have no use for wi fi and GPS I chose the N73. I am not dissapointed at all!!! This is an EXCELLENT phone, I just took a 4 hr flight and it was a breeze. I listened to my MP3, watched music videos on the MP4 Real Player, I played Roger Federer tennis, Need 4 Speed, Soduku, etc, read a section of a book and reviwed some Excel and PDF files I had downloaded. The camera pictures are awesome for a phone. For some reason some of them come with a bluish cast which I fix easily in Photosohop (I fix all my SLR pictures as well so no big deal). The FM radio is handy and I keep all my meetings with me with the Lotus Notes synchronization. Plus, for less than $300 I am not that worried about carrying a phone in my pocket at all times.As I said if you like this and have the $$$ I recommend the Nokia N82 but that doesnt mean that the N73 is outdated or underpowered its just that it has less features than the N82 but no big deal. | 1positive

If you want to waste your money, this is the earset to buy!
I am actually back here to buy a replacement... I bought two of these and my husbands fell apart within a week. During that week we used them, they had the WORST echo or feedback sound. The name brand sold me, but the name is not enough to make this a good product. I have spent thousands at Amazon and this is the first thing I bought that was absolutely the pits. Too bad I bought two, and even worse yet, didn't return them for credit. Ugh, go look at something else! | 0negative

great phone! compact & lightweight with tons of features!
This phone is absolutely superb, I bought it this christmas because I needed a way to communicate with my friends and family because I am on the go a lot, and this phone is perfect for it! It's size is amazing, much smaller than it seems in the pictures, and extremely lightweight, fits in my pocket and is not a bother. It features a full color main screen, and a black and white screen on the front that displays the time, signal strength, battery life, caller ID etc...The features on it are also amazing, and t-zones is great, a service from t-mobile which allows unlimited wireless WAP access for only 5$ a month. AOL instant Messenger is also very handy for talking with friends, but it does cost 5 cents for every message sent or received so you have to be careful because the messages add up. There are some oddities with the WAP browser, and the games are somewhat low-level but otherwise a great phone! | 1positive

Not worth the problems!
First, let me say that I really wanted to like this device. I had patience and understanding for a while but it got me nowhere.The main issue with this phone is its operating system: Windows Mobile 5.0.This OS is a piece of fluff garbage. Simple things that should take a click or two have become so difficult to access that you basically just give up.Main Gripes-----------Connectivity with T-Mobile is horrible: accessing the aim function doesn't work 9 times out of 10. E-mail functions are useless. I tried finding a solution for hours and the best I got was having my email checked every hour but deleted shortly after that. Internet explorer can NEVER find the page that I'm looking for and consistently tells me to try again. Even when connected to wi-fi this happens. Let me tell you also that this device does not let you choose between wi-fi and edge. If you already opened IE and you were using EDGE then it will continue to use EDGE unless you restart the phone with wi-fi enabled.Calls-----Making a call was so difficult that I wanted to smash the phone on a daily basis. Usually, I would press talk to dial a call and it would immediately say "Call Ended." It's as if the device doesn't even want to try.Also, when answering a call, well trying to answer a call, it would drop it as soon as I pressed talk. What the HELL is THAT!? What good is a phone if you can't make or receive calls? Keep in mind this happens around half the time. Also keep in mind that I live in NEW YORK CITY! My calls should not be dropping except for when I'm in the subway. The side volume button is extremely annoying causing the volume to go to both extremes within one conversation. Not only that, but when you disable it, you have no other method of changing the volume on the device. ARGGGHHH!Keyboard-------While the keyboard is basically easy to type on, the phone is buggy. First off, the t9 sucks! It will completely change the word you are typing to a word that's in its dictionary while you're typing! EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING! Now get this, you can't even permanently keep the t9 off. So you have to keep going into the menu to change it to normal ABC mode. While I appreciate the ability to have faster typing, isn't the whole point of a QWERTY being able to type without using t9? When you actually get to typing, sometimes, the keys will "stick" and a character will continuously repeat until you stop it. This isn't a physical keyboard issue but yet another software issue.Programs-------For all you techno oriented people out there (basically everyone buying this phone), the programs this device has available for download are minuscule. Not only is the catalog of programs extremely limited but when using a JAVA program (which most programs are coded in) the Dash's JAVA program will not allow you to open those programs. I ALWAYS get an error stating "A Java midlet is not responding" It then gives me the choice of waiting or killing the app. Neither of which solve anything.This phone is so useless it's beyond words. I could go on and on about it's issues but I really don't care to.STAY AWAY FROM THIS PHONE!While T-mobile customer support is very helpful and friendly, their service/coverage is non-existent. Calls are constantly dropped, I get voice mails without the phone even ringing, and internet connectivity is never really available.Please, do yourself a favor and wait for the iPhone. | 0negative

Nice product
Useful gadget, converts the sony's proprietary (and silly!) connection so that any regular headphones can be used. Item arrived correctly and within stated shipping time | 1positive

Excellent quality for the price
$40 is what I saved purchasing from Amazon rather than Cingular Wireless, where my phone is from. Excellent deal, considering the attractive style and lightness of the Motorola H700, what a great product. I have noticed one problem making it a 4 star rather than a 5 star product: The ringtone. I have paid for several fancy ringtones and assigned them to all of my friends, but when the headset is in use, all I get is an obnoxious, loud beep! beep! for my ringtone. Wow that is not cool. Other than that, ease of operation and cool design make this the one to buy. | 1positive

Flip Phone wary
I have purchases a few flip phones in my life and have alway had issues with cracking at the joint. Well this was no exception. I am not a power user, nor do I drop my phone, but it cracked, in the same place as my business partners, who also owns the same phone. We took it back to T-mobile within 4 months of service and because it wasn't a software glitch, they said they would replace it for $75.00. Not my idea of a warranty at all. Too bad, because it does have some nice features. | 0negative

DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY
IN THEORY, a great item. I run 25-35 miles a week. I used this for two weeks, and suddenly the volume maxed out, and the button to lower the volume STOPPED WORKING. There are many other people who complain about the volume bottons malfunctioning. Somebody, maybe Motorola, needs to make a set of headphones that is truly WATERPROOF for people like myself who run. Blatent false advertising, since Motorola says that these are "sport" headphones. | 0negative

Smartphone 2.5mm to 3.5mm stereo headphone adapter
I received 2 2.5mm to 3.5mm stereo headphone adapter. One didn't work. The other works but with a lot of loss of sound quality. If you push the headphone jack(male) all the way in to the adapter sound is cutoff on one speaker. You have to play with it and find the sweet spot where sound comes from both speakers. And even then the quality is not good. | 0negative

The shape of things to come...
Best SmartPhone yet... The T-Mobile SDA may beat this out with the added WiFi - but the music keys on the SDA take too much scarce real-estate. A good phone and a more mature version of Windows Mobile.For the Reviewer needing an automatic key lock for this and other Windows SmartPhones - I recommend "Automatic Keylock" by Danny Baumann [...] | 1positive

A great reliable phone
The LG VX4500 is a pretty basic phone that performs well. I just purchased another one of these and had it activated on Verizon after my old LG VX3100 started to get poor reception after four years of use. Some nice features on the 4500 include voice command, speaker phone, color screen, and an external caller ID/time display. I live in a very rural area and the phone still gives me a great signal, something that my former phone didnt. If youre looking for a great phone that has every feature except a camera, check out the LG VX4500. Search ebay.com for great deals on this great phone! | 1positive

almost perfect
This phone can play music videos just like the ipod, with 400 kbps video rate and 128 kbps stereo sound. It takes the same format as the ipod (3gp container) with qcif (176x144) resolution.It would be even better if the headphone jack is built into the phone instead of requiring SE's connector. | 1positive

Pretty Darn Good 09/11/04
This phone is pretty great.I used to have the Nokia 3650, which was a great phone too, it was just a bit bulky, so i use it as a side phone when i need it. The Moto-C650 is so small (about half the size of my 3650) and so functional.PROS:*It's small! You can find the dementions yourself, but its small enough for me*It's loud, the ringer's loudest setting is at least twice as loud as my 3650 ever was, and it uses the same speaker for its speakerphone which can also get very loud and clear, of course, you can turn them down if need be.*It has excelent reception. Now i know this is somewhat subjective, because it depends on location and service (We use T-mobile about 30 miles from the Minneapolis St. Paul Metro Area)Even when the reception bars are low, the phone still has good clarity)*Easy to use menus*Cool camera, it has about twice the resolution of my 3650 (a lot more than the screen on the phone can even display), and some cool functions like on-screen brightness controls and a 4x digital zoom*Clear, Colorful screen*Cool USB Port on the bottom that has (Potentially) endless aplicationsCons:*Small buttons, with a small phone, you obviously get small button, but for a guy with big fingers, it can get a bit clumsy (hitting the 1 button instead of the Send, etc...)*When i said the USB port had potentailly endless apllications i ment POTENTIALLY, meaning there are none now...not even a driver from Motorola to enable it to connect to your computer, now im sure there will be many in the future, there just are none now...*There are no easily accessable "Profiles" as in Nokia's sybian phones, so you cant easily switch between ringer, or have "Quiet, Meeting, Outside" settings with one button switching. All you can do without entering the menu is turn it up and down, vibrate setting and Silence, i minor inconveniece but worth mentioning.Thats about all i can think of right now, i might add more later after i have had the phone for more than a month. | 1positive

I Love it!
I've had this headset for a week, and I'm very satisfied. I'm able to be 20-30 feet away from it with very little static, and both parties are able to hear just fine. It does make your ear a little sore if using it for extended periods of time, but it's only sore when you take it out or move it. If you just leave it in, you don't feel a thing. I have a couple computers in my apartment, so only having a usb charger for in-home charging is perfectly fine for me. I'm very happy with it, and for the price, totally recommend it. | 1positive

Wait for next Pearl - this one has problems
While the Pearl shows potential, I am planning to return mine to AT&T; within my 30-day evaluation period. This little BlackBerry shows a lot of promise but comes up short as being a reliable phone. This is my first BlackBerry, and even with its marvelous email functionality (bundled with AT&T;'s $29.99 data plan), I find this device cheaply built and finicky to use.The durability of this unit leaves a lot to be desired. Like some of the cheapest phones on the market this unit features weak flimsy plastic casing. The unit feels like a toy in your hand, especially when removing the battery cover. An optional MicroSD card goes in this area so the battery compartment will need to be accessed over time.Basic phone use is a problem. Battery life is nothing exciting. Like many other phones, the ring volume and call volume just isn't very loud, even at maximum. In noisy areas it becomes hard to have a normal phone call. The ringtone will not play simultaneously while the unit vibrates, so calls are often missed. Historically this has plagued all BlackBerry's. The "Vibrate+Tone" mode causes 1-3 vibrations before the ringtone begins. RIM has stated this may be fixed in upcoming units. Answering a call becomes even more difficult using AT&T;'s OEM leather case. The phone must be pulled out of the case before it can be used; the case has no holes for access while sheathed, or leaving the included headphone plugged in. Safely answering a call in a hands-free manner is near impossible and should not be performed with this phone especially if driving a car.One of the features I was most excited about was the browser. While it offers some basic functionality, it is unable to utilize 90% of what's on the web. Most web sites will not function in this Java based browser, which does not begin to touch what might be accomplished on a device such as an iPhone. Graphics, sounds, music, animation, and Flash all don't work on the Pearl. You can do things like get directions and perform basic Google searches, which remains very useful, but forget any "fun".If you can live with the cheap plastic build quality and are in need of email functionality in a small package you might want to consider this phone. Personally I cannot live with a device that is built like a toy and misses so many calls due to simple things like speakers that aren't loud enough and ringtones that cannot happen while the phone vibrates. | 0negative

T-Mobile Service is horrible!
This review is more of the service than the phone. The phone is thin and cool, but T-Mobile might have the worst customer service. My phone would not work, and I seriously had to wait an hour or more just waiting to speak with a representative who was fairly clueless. After waiting an additional 20 minutes on hold to speak with a specialist, I was informed that their office was closed. I'd go with Cingular over T-Mobile. | 0negative

Not quite right
As mentioned in the previous two reviews - the phone is great, but the cases are flimsy. I just ordered a replacement, and it looks nothing like the photo. I like the "pouch" style, but what I got was an open-faced design. Makes the phone easy to use, but doesn't provide any real protection. | 0negative

Help
If you bay any Blackbery device you also buy a problem. This is good if you make no change and only use to send mails. They do not provide online help or a mail account to make questions. The Desktop software has pour logic and usually makes what is not expected. The help always referrer to the Administrator or to the manual! So, what happen if you would like to do something by your self? Probably you have to spend lot of time reading the whole book. What happen if you do not have an administrator? This shows you the lake of respect for the costumers. This is definitely not a company oriented to final customers, their target is B2B, and so you have to be careful. | 0negative

Tracfone
Tracfones are ideal for people with light or medium cellphoneusage, so it works out well for me. The tracfonewebsite is user friendly and makes it easy toactivate, etc. I paid an extra $10. and got the car charger that just plugs into the cigarette lighter if the tracfone battery gets low when i'm driving. If you email me for a referral before activating then Tracfone will give each of us 100 free minutes! | 1positive

Product description misleading
This product was purchased with the expressed intent to upload/download and update phone book, pictures, music and ringtones for the SamsungGleam SCH-U700. The product description promises all this for the gleam, the actual product cannot access anything but the telephone book. what a waste since you can get free software and a cable for $5 from another vendor rather than the price i paid from amazon. | 0negative

Actually does what is says...Incredible
This is my third blue tooth headset and this is by far the best one I've had. I had the Jabra vt2500 and the Motorola H700. Let's just say that those items did not live up to expectations. Both were very low in volume and I had to constantly repeat myself. The people I was talking to could hear the background noise more than they can hear me. With the ANYCOM HS-890 the speaker is very loud and clear and the other person can hear me on the other end as well. This is an awesome product. Sure, this product is not as pretty as the H700 but it sure does perform. It's great that I don't constantly have to say, "say again?...Say again?" Now...one tiny little flaw with this product is that it shuts off by itself when not in use. Technically, it's still on which only requires you to just click on the power button to take it out of stand by mode to make calls and receive. If it was fully turned off you have to hold the power button for about 6 sec. I can live with that. Seriously, this product is loud and clear. Loud as in you can hear the person you're talking to without "trying" to hear them. It's awesome, no regrets so far. I'll update my review as time goes by for longevity of the product. | 1positive

Be aware!
I ordered this charger from BargainCell and received it in 3 days as advertised. I previously purchased one from an E-Bay merchant which didn't work...an apparent counterfeit (see the Motorola Counterfeit Guidebook)...phone displayed "unauthorized charger" and would not charge. The counterfeit was missing the trash can pictogram and the cable was thinner and shinny versus the flat color of the authenic charger. | 1positive

Great idea but still far away from a perfect BT headset
I bought the BT200 after doing some research over the net and generally it has a good rating, now it is my turn to write my experience.Pros: great idea, comfortable on the ear, good price, voice dilaing if your phone support it, stylish, convenience, safer driving, volume button, easy to pair with your phone.Cons: still far away from a perfect BT headset because of:really short range I am talking less than 9 feet before the conversation gets really uncomfortable for both sides, a lot of interference. basicly you need to keep your phone in your pocket. Not small in size, I give the quality of the sound comparing to my phone 2/5. if you are not in a really quite place forget about the voice dialing and the clarity of the conversation bottoms to the ground.I am still waiting for the perfect BT headset but I am not sure if they will come up with one soon. | 0negative

Disappointed!
The microphone does not transmit understandable sound to callers, but Speaker provides excellent sound. Family members cannot recognize my voice and say words are not clear. Even when I place microphone close to mouth, results do not improve. I am aware that the microphone is not the speaker, but is located near the phone plug end.After I disconnect the unit from the phone, (without disconnecting the call) my messages are easily understood using the phone microphone itself.In my Toyota Avalon, there is actually no room for mounting, so it just flopped on the console. Too bad that with today's technology Motorola couldn't miniaturize and condense the size of this unit and eliminate the heavy coiled cord, and have everything fit in the cigarette lighter socket. The cords were a nuisence, interferrng with transmission shifts. The Motorola unit might work on a Hum V or a Mack truck, I suppose.I tried to live with it, and searched for a remote microphone with the proper 3/32 male plug. I finally went to Radio Shack and found they could order one out for about $15.00, and it would take a few days. I finally opted to purchase a Radio Shack #1700917HFA for a Motorola V120 for $29.99. It features a remote mike and self contained unit that fits in the cigarette lighter with only one cord to the phone. I located the microphone above the driver's door, and the cord concealed under the rubber door seal, then under the dashboard, and it ends near the ash tray door. It plugs into the unit and works well. Sound quality is not as clear as the Motorola unit on my end, but those I phone hear clearly.If you purchased a Motorola Hands Free Unit, and the bulk is not a problem, and if you can find a microphone with a tight fitting male plug that will fit in the unit, you will probably be satisfied. Take the unit to the place where you go shopping for the microphone to be sure the plug fits tightly into the phone jack. The Motorola unit? It is sitting on my workbench as a reminder of my gullibility. | 0negative

Motorola HS850 Bluetooth Headset

Be warned
USB jack did not fit my phone and had to be dismantled and carved with a knife to squeeze it in (it works now, but has to be held in by hand). Came with no instructions, and, if you don't have a pretty solid knowledge of drivers, you won't be able to figure this out. The driver CD is useless more or less, since they don't send you a "product number," which is needed to access the menu on the CD.It works, and I am able to send files to and from my phone, but this is after approximately two or three hours of downloading fixes and configuring my computer, and a whole lot of cursing. I won't be ordering anything from them again, and if I had it to do over, I'd order the cable from a different company. | 0negative

What I found missing in other reviews
As there are some other excellent reviews here, I am concentrating on what has not been written.Sound quality varies, depending on how you use the headphones. Basically, both comparisons with AM radio and HiFi Sound are more or less true. Here is why.I find the earphones of an excellent quality at low to middle sound levels, delivering sound better than my Koss Porta Pro and on par with Sennheiser PC-150. But this is only true, when the earphones are wired to the source. It is also loud, at 50% PB output level sound get unbearable. Good sensitivity and sound detail.Using the including Bluetooth dongle, quality slips to the level of FM radio. Using it with iPod, which does not offer that good output quality (at least no comparison to my Al PowerBook 1.5GHz), quality slips a bit further. This is partially due to limitation of the Bluetooth and the fact that sound is amplified twice (both in iPod and headset).Further gets worse :(. By connecting vie Bluetooth to the PowerBook, quality does goet to the level of the AM Radio, as Mac currently do not support A2DP Bluetooth profile for improved audio quality. It is really a no go for listening to music, and Skype quality drops to the level of a normal phone.To get it working, however, there is one thing to keep in mind. I guess, Macs do not support another feature of Bluetooth, multi-access. Since I am using headset as a phone headset as well, it is constanly connected to the mobile phone. It seems like macs do not like sharing headsets, so bluetooth on the mobile phone has to be switched off. Otherwise, no problem whatsoever. Dongle-phone (SONY Ericsson K750i) combination works perfect and is REALLY cool stuff. It switches sources, once you get a call and then switches back to the iPod.Basically, I am keeping the headset, as getting rid of the wires on the go is worth the sound quality penalty. For a good quality, 3.5 mm jack is the only option for some time to come, in my opinion.So, this is an awesome product, well designed, very well built. If it suffers some quality issues, it is actually due to the limitations of the technology, not the product. I had no problems with charging, as did some other users. Another batch maybe :p. Accordingly, 5 stars for the product, 1 star penalty for inperfect technology (Bluetooth and Mac), 4 Stars in total.Oh! One annoying thing, there is a blinking blue ring light on the right earphone. At night it is really bright, so you'll end up looking like a lighthouse. During the day it is not that obvious. Still annoying, as I would prefer to use my cool headset rather discreetely. | 1positive

nice prepaid service
I have been using tracfone for seven months and I am satisfied with it. I have light cell phone usage and it costs me less than 15 dollars a month. The signal is good, no matter in the city of Boston or in the countryside of PA. I have not dealt with their custom service though. Tracfone has a promotion of 120 free minutes if you get an invitation from other users before you activate it. Let me know if you need one. And I can help you even if you have already activated it recently. | 1positive

Awesome
Some reviewers had issues with turning it on/off by the extension. I simply used the cell phone itself to accept/end calls, and over time, I came to really love this headset. My only problem is that I keep losing it. I finally got a second headset (Jabra BT250v) for back-up, and I really now appreciate my Nokia - the Jabra is unforgivably bad (see my review there). I will be buying yet a third headset, this one another Nokia BH900 | 1positive

Great product, great price, outdated
I have one of these and the price cannot be beat. It has some shortcomings, compared to more modern blackberries that you should be aware of:* No expanded memory card slot (avail on 8800, 8830)* Old wheel interface vs trackball, missing some buttons (8800, 8830)* No GPS (8800)* No WiFi (8830)If none of that matters to you, then this is a great and very affordable option. I'm going to take mine back and get an 8800 or 8830, though. My main reason is because of the card slot. The device only has 64MB of memory onboard. With a SD card, I could easily and cheaply expand that to 8256MB, or 129 times more storage space. That's enough that I could also use my blackberry to transfer files or play MP3s. The interface improvements and GPS or WiFi will be a nice bonus. | 1positive

Elegant Useful Case
This case allows you to access most of the functionality of the phone with ease. The cover over the touch screen can easily be opened to access full functionality if needed. It provides a secure grip to your belt and does not look all that bad regardless of what you are wearing. The swivel makes it comfortable while driving and getting in and out of anywhere is no issue. The quick release is secure and does not accidently release the phone when you do not want to. Highly recommended. | 1positive

CHEAP Plastic....
Although this phone has so many great details that are mentioned in other reviews, I could not believe the cheapness of the plastic!This phone could have been just a GREAT design and durable as well as I especially like the clock on the cover. Instead, Cingular offers a phone that cost over $300 with all the bells and whistles and terrific technology ....with plastic like a kid's phone. I couldn't believe it and when I mentioned it to the reps on the phone, they stated that all the customers were saying how disappointed they were.I mean, how much more would it have cost Cingular to spend a few bucks for quality materials? If you drop this baby even once, you had better kiss it goodbye... | 0negative

This was my first blue tooth that I had ever purchased. I love it! The sound quality is perfect.

Cheap phone
This phone was cheap for an unlocked GSM phone and it showed. The user interface was now easy to use, features were very minimal, the audio quality from the phone was poor and hard to hear in noisy environments, ringer was hard to hear, etc. Oh, if you use an ear piece, your phone will not ring...only through the ear piece. :( Some good things about the phone?

Extremely frustrating!!!
This phone is great--sometimes. When it's not, it's a nightmare. The 1st time I bought the LG VX5200 camera phone (December 2005), I had it for 4 days and it crashed irreparably. I got a new one. Now, about 6 months after I bought the second one, it did the same thing. And my sister's did the same as well. What happens is the screen goes to white with the Verizon logo and it stays that way. Only taking the battery out turns off the phone. But when you put it back in and try to turn the phone on, it just goes to the white screen. I even tried replacing the battery. I have also read of similar things happening to others with this phone, so I don't recommend this phone at all. | 0negative

Uhura, Contact the Federation
Nothing is more Star Trek than wearing these earphones. Light, comfortable, easy to use, good sound, bug free, nice battery life. Like others, I find the buttons nearly useless, and tolerate only the off/on on, other functions I prefer working from my Motorola phone buttons. The accuracy by which the Moto phone interprets voice commands is incredible, and I spend 90% of my time coordinating calls by voice commands.Microphone output is superb. At times the earpiece crackles like a dirty connector ... most commonly when traveling by car. At home its solidly clear. The voices of callers are very clear, albeit softly muffled and lacking frequency response, like a very compressed MP3 file. It may sound like Uncle Bob has a cold but you can make out everything he says.Your only question is do you need one of these. I didn't but Ms. Christmas said I did. | 1positive

terrible speaker volume , good PDA features
I have never written any review on any item. But I feel very compelled to write one this time. I loved this phone a lot but had to return it. It has everything I wanted, except the very basic feature of the phone, the speaker volume! The volume is sooo low on the earpiece, the speaker phone itself and the microphone. There is a few glitches in the software here and there. The side buttons are too big so sometime you may accidently change the setting. But I consider these are minor problems. Outlook, ActiveSync, blue tooth, Media player and everything else pretty much works fine. Despite all of these great features, the low volume is unbearable. I always love moto phones especially they have good sound systems. MPX220 is definitely NOT the one you would expect from Motorola. I'm very disappointed. I will just have to wait until they come out with a new PDA phone. By the way, the ROM version on mine is 1.30. | 0negative
