Good sound; features not so good

My flip phone ended up elsewhere and I needed a new phone fast for my prepaid T-Mobile plan, so I went out and got a Sparq II. 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... On balance, I don't think the Sparq II is worth the upgrade from a cheaper flip phone, for me at least. I'll probably end up returning it and getting something different.


Stylus for iPhone and iPad

Great tool for chicks with long nails or in the winter when you don't want to take your gloves off.Also keeps the smudges off the iPad. Awesome product.


my design :)

This was originally a kickstarter project that did not meet funding a couple years ago. I designed the tip on this stylus, the original tip was a coil of a single wire that left one end unsecured to snag on things. So I spoke with the original designer in detail and tested the prototype of this when it was originally called the "zeppelin." After much testing I sent him some drawings for a new tip design that would make it more consistent and less likely to snag on things. This current stylus tip design is exactly what I suggested for him to use. It's good to see that it finally made it to the public with my improvements. Too bad I didn't ask for some royalties for intellectual property :(


if iPad Touch got 2 stars this gets 1, if other product got 1, this gets 0

(returned product and this is edited email)I did toss some of the plastic baggies that were in there but could not figure out after i reassembled the product in the mailer why there were so many plastic baggies, there was only one cord, an A/C cord.  that did also plug into the computer...actually now not sure how we charged it in first place...? if there is something missing it's in my livingroom.  having WHITE cords instead of black would help SEE them! it is rather SMALL, but not horridly small compared to say VirginMobile device I had in 2008.  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...)---


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.  Will be sending this unit back for exchange.Scott Webb


crapy phone

Bought this phone brand new in Jan. in March the screen quit working. everything on my screen is fuzzy can't read anything and when you can the text is backwords and I have too look in a mirror to read my text or to even look to see who is calling me. DO NOT BUY!!!!!


Works Great!

Case fits snugly on the phone, kickstand works well but takes a bit of pressure to kick it out. Be careful you don't break it while you're trying to flip out the stand.Best part about this case: You can leave it on and it works for Wireless charging (MAXX only) when used with the wireless charger I bought (Yes Digi QI Wireless Charger for LG Google Nexus 4 / Optimus Vu II, Nokia Lumia 920.I would have liked prime and not to pay shipping cost, but I'll take what I can get when it comes to protecting my phone and also having a kickstand, and this is the only option.UPDATE: Price went down from the 17.95 that I paid for it, and has Prime! Also, the other review who says it has to be pried out must have slightly defective product. Mine doesn't have those issues.


It's better than expected!

The Item was better than expected! If you do not know how to pair your device then you should ask your kids or someone who understands how it works to do it, I say this cause I read a few bad reviews that mentioned that it was not a good product, that they could not pair it, that the device didn't work at all after a few days using it, well, I never had any issues with it!I believe the people who had problems pairing it where people whom:A- do not know how to properly use the deviceB- people who have bad cheap android devices! (I have an iPhone 4S & iPhone 5S plus my best friend and my girld friend owns Galaxy S3 & Galaxy S5, they didn't had any problems or me! however I used one cheap ass phone I got from china wich had issues pairing, I don't know the model but sure it was an Android device!.People who claims the device stop working after a few day to a month!A-if your car has electrical problems and you do not know it could lead to damage any other device you plug, so check on that!B- I Own a Jeep Liberty so I have two ports where I can plug the device to charge or just leave it plug! I plug it once and I haven't had the need to unplug it directly form the port, except I do sometimes unplug it just to show off my friends that it works completely wireless and from far away, not only mentioning that it has a built in battery. SO.... I belie if you plug and unplug this device all the time you might end up shorting it and burning it, if not your car ports! Ask a technician they will confirm that on your dealer ship!NOW, I'm not the person that leaves big reviews, just the most important things to day, but I had a little exited since I'm a little bit upset with eh people whom left the bad comments, cause I was about not to purchase this cause I was afraid it was going to be a bad decisions, end up buying it and loving it, my best friend got something different and his is just a piece of crap at BestBuy that was expensive and not even wireless!;)


Saved my Samsung!!!

Amazing product.  I bought this in September for my new Samsung.  Today, after I dropped it getting into my friends full-size ford truck, I dropped my phone and we ran over my phone.  Yes, ran over my phone with a truck.  The phone flew out of my little pink case and the screen looked shattered.  When I picked up my phone I peeled off the TechPro glass screen protector.  The screen protector was shattered but my beautiful phone was fine, minus the tire marks.  Ordered a new one today!!!


Seemed Cool...

This cover seemed cool at first, but then I realized that in certain lighting conditions it was impossible to see the screen without trying to shade it with my hand.  It is next to impossible to use outside on sunny days.I'll stick to clear in the future.


Excellent Product

Bought this protector for my wife's new LG Cosmos Touch. Quality product with great packaging..Product application was easy, and the instructions supplied were straight forward. Read the instructions, take your time, and the results will be good. Don't worry about any minor micro bubbles left, as they go away in about a week. It's crystal clear. If the wife is happy, I'm happy.


Way better then otterbox

I can't say enough about this case, it is smaller then the defender otterbox but keeps the same protection. THen if needed you have the optional extra layer to help you out. I don't always needed the tank case but its nice to know I have it if needed.


Great headset, fits the bill nicely, works well with my Razr V3

Very easy to pair this set with my motorola razor. All features worked well with the razor. Very good fit with no problems and No flapping. Superb audio feedback to let me know what mode the headset is in. Very light with no fatigue. Good placement of buttons, very easy to use while on my ear, good ergonomics. Very pleased, but no auto answer mode, sigh!Pros:Good fit, very light, easy to use, Xlnt audio feedback detailing the mode of the phoneCons:No auto answer feature, case a little squeaky


ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!!

I got this phone in an upgrade on 10/14. 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. I absolutely love this phone and I think most anyone with a hint of technical common sense would too!


love this!

I wanted something not too heavy but protective. This fits the bill. Stays in the case and all 4 sides are protected. Love the removable strap and all the color choices. Very light but well made with good stitching and the price was right. I may buy a second one. Perfect for the new iPhone 5. Not bulky or heavy in my pocket and every opening fits perfect. The strap stays in place. Highly recommended! Best case I have had  yet. For the price you cant go wrong.


Got mobile in excellent condition

This is first time I ordered a mobile from Amazon. This was a risk for me but when I opened the packed I was relieved. The mobile is in good condition and working fine. I liked this HTC due to Google applications but the mobile seems to be slower than I can use. I am using it in India and have GPRS (internet) in mobile. But my mobile works very slow while connected to internet.


Picture is deceiving

the piece is a mirror cause it is super thick, of course if the plastic is that thick it will reflect itself. smaller than the screen doesnt even cover the whole display part. Dont buy its not worth it


ripoff

This product is a ripoff. Brand new fully charged it only charged my kindle fire once before losing power. Thats less than half the advertised power.


Terrible Impostor.

I purchased this glass replacement after cracking the screen of my Galaxy Note II. 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.


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.  Nothing cheap about this phone except it's price (FREE!!!).


Should specify that it needs a microsim.

Very fast delivery in an unopened T-mobile box. The phone its beutiful and great for its price. I am a Tmobile costumer and I though I will just had to change my regular sim card to this new phone but it uses a microsim. The good thing is that the box brings one but you still have to go to a TMobile store to activate it.


This is the best smartwatch in the market right now

This is the best smartwatch in the market right now. The hardware and software are superb. I bought this watch a week ago from my local AT&T; store. Previous to getting the Gear 2, I owned the Gear 1 for over 4 months. Here is a rundown of the pros and cons:Pros:1. I like that the camera and speaker is now located on the watch itself2. The button is now in the front instead of on the right side3. Improved software such as the ability to organize your apps and a homepage4. The ability to replace the strap5. Longer battery life6. Water and dust resistant7. Slightly better speaker qualityCons:1. Vibrate is not strong enough2. The wake-up feature to turn the watch on automatically is too sensitive3. I wish there was a way to silence the camera sound4. The cheap strap that comes with this watch. I ended up replacing it with a stainless steel strap that looks more elegant.5. Camera picture a bit grainy


Not Bad, But Words Of Caution

For anybody considering buying this device and removing their land line, consider these points:1. Call quality will be no better than a cell phone, and often times worse.  And because of the bluetooth connection, latency increases further.  Talking to someone on a cell phone with this device can mean a second (or more) lag.2. This device did not work properly for me out of the box. I had to flash the software to get it to function at all.3. Your cell phone has to be right next to the device for adequate reception.  Forget about the 30' advertised range, as you will get increasing static starting at about 5'.4. If you have a home answering machine, it won't work with this device/technology.5. The salty cost for this device will become apparent when you open the box.Bottom line, this is a low quality solution to a land line.  I would choose VOIP over this technology (if that is an option) if you want to save money by getting rid of the land line.


Kind of a cheap phone for the price....

I like virgin mobile. I live in a big city, san francisco, and i get all right service. Not as great as verizon but great for the $35. I just wish they had better phones. This htc phone feels Cheap and what is up with 3d camera?!? Its nonsense or more to the point: pointless.  With virgin, either go inexpensive - i got the lg optimus which is an ok phone though a bit small for my big hands, or spend the money and get the iphone 4s.


Works great for me

As a busy mom who spends a lot of time in the car, the H500 has done just what I wanted it to do.  Allows me to drive without having to dig my cell phone out of my purse and not have cords in the way.I will agree that in the wind it does give person on the other end some noise, but I have found if I hold my hand in front of my mouth, the sound is reflect back to my earpiece and they hear me just fine.Wish I had seen price at Amazon before I bought mine at Verizon store!


Bought on Groupon

This is junk. I bought this on groupon for $20 the battery worked for a month and then died. If the only thing that you want from the deal is to use the small flat non apple charger you will love it. But if you want added battery life or a good case... You will not find it here.


Awesome Case

I was expecting a hard case, but this case is gel! And its not the gelly, rubbery kind that sticks in your pocket and collects fuzzies. I didn't want that. This is a snug fit case, it doesn't fall off, and it doesn't slip out of my hand. My phone would definitely slip out of my hands all the time without this case. And i love the color. I highly recommend this case. (:


No help from reseller

Received the item from "The OEM Shop" aka "Best N Price" on time.  The item arrived non-functional.  I attempted many iterations with Jawbone's website and customer service to make sure that I wasn't dealing with "user error".  This occurred over many days since I have actual work and life to deal with also.  It was finally determined that the unit was defective...but couldn't be returned to Jawbone since it wasn't actually sold by Amazon, but instead by a third party (the actual reason for this review).When I finally discovered a way to contact the vendor and explained the situation...I was informed that they don't take returns after 14 days.  Considering that one week of that was while I was out of state on Christmas vacation while my order is waiting for me at home.  That leaves very little time to realistically resolve issues before deciding a return was the best policy.  A second request yielded the response..."Thank you for contacting me regarding this matter. I'm sorry we are unable to deviate from the return policy."No...I'm *not* happy.


Samsung i5510 - Be aware of AZERTY keyboard

I've ordered this phone from 2 different sellers. Each time, the phone has arrived with a keyboard that is laid out different from standard US QWERTY keyboard. The item description shows QWERTY keyboard. The physical keyboard on the phone is AZERTY, which means a few keys are rearranged. A and Q are swapped. W and Z are swapped. The M is moved to the right of L. I wanted the slide out keyboard for easy texting, which is very difficult with some keys in the wrong places. The phone does have a pop-up on screen keyboard, which is QWERTY, when you close the slide out. But that defeats the purpose of the slide-out.Other than the keyboard, the phone is my first Android phone. It seems to work well. No complaints about the functionality, or the software.


Low profile and helps me a lot

This is my favorite case for my phone thus far. Has held up and protected my phone from several falls. Love the look and love that it slides in and out of my pocket easily.


Almost indestructable

I work as a dive instructor, and I have lost count of the cell phones that have either been 'drowned' or salt damaged in the past 6 years since I started my business.This phone is awesome, it's waterproof as long as the port that covers the battery charging access is firmly in place, so if it should 'go for a swim it's much more likely to survive. My phone has already had a couple of water encounters that would have killed lesser phones.The unit is sealed so I don't have to worry about using it with salty / dirty / oily hands as it can be rinsed off. The case fits nicely in the hand, and the keys are good size.I would recommend this phone for boating, dirty or wet out door pursuits, and even mechanics and other folks involved in jobs where your phone is likely to get mucky!The battery has a pretty good life. The phone also has a torch, the only thing that it lacks is a bottle opener!So impressed am I that I have bought additional phones for my staff / business.


Best phone charm i've ordered so far.

Its adorable and well made. The last 2 phone charms I've ordered as gifts seemed flimsy and might break off in the earphone jack, but this one is very sturdy. It came in a little red jewelry box and is very darling, Warning it took almost a month for it to get here so if its a gift you might want to pay extra for faster shipping.


like the soft touch

I was debating with myself whether getting a soft skin or hard skin, I ended up buying this one. After I got the new iphone 5, cannot wait to fit it in. The soft skin feels good, I would recommend it to anyone who's currently looking for a case.


Greatest little invention ever! Great price! I absolutely love this case!

My son had already bought this case for his Motorola Razr so when he found out I was purchasing the same phone he said "Mom, you have to buy this phone case" and then showed it to me! I thought it was the coolest thing that it had the built in kickstand and that all you had to do was snap it back in and wahlah....gone! I like the feel of the case too. It has a textured design with that silicone feel that gives me that extra little grip on my phone which helps me feel a little more secure about my phone not slipping out of my hand! It doesn't add that extra bulk and take away from the shape of the phone like alot of cases do either! The kickstand is such a great idea. You can stand it up, lay it on it's side while playing games, charging it, anything that comes to mind. It was a great idea! They sell those stands to hold cell phones and their cords and I own 3 because I had them in various places around the house and at work to charge my phone and to prop it up if I was playing a game but the fact that they are useless to me now is okay because the only thing I need is right there on the back of my phone. Just pop out the kickstand & I'm good to go! One of the best gadgets ever! The holster case is a nice addition too! It comes in handy when I don't feel like carrying my purse so I just snap it onto my waist. I don't use it often but I have it if I need it. Two for one is the way I see it. Great deal!


It is what it is

I just bought a white and black one of these for my Samsung Instinct. Adds hardly any weight or bulk to the Instinct. The Volume, Power, Push to Talk, and Camera button don't have an opening with this cover, and work fine without openings. The openings are for the headphones, strap loop opening, charge slot, camera shutter, and the Micro SD slot. All in all, a nice cover at a cheap price. I've seen other colors available such as orange.


Samsung Note Accessories

Do you have a reputable mobile phone? Which brand? If you have an Samsung one, you are a clear winner. If you have an Samsung Galaxy Note, consider yourself the winners' neighborhood king. Buying accessories that serve this purpose may cost fortunes once bought from original stores. But as you can see I didn't pay that much :) actually my father didn't pay that much . I like this Samsung Note accessories bundle it's a high quality package that could serve it all for the best price in market.


You get what you pay for

What to expect for $17 bucks ? I expected more, but this was my failure. Everything plastic, but it didn't fall.


how many does it take to rate them???

yeap!! i've had four units of this bt headsets and all toghether combined usage time didn't add a whole entire year... for different reasons they all died.. it all began as a mistake with the shipping order but since i'm a trucker and i was away i got stock with ALL of them..the first one stopped working..the second one got wet only from my truck to a warehouse door 20 feet away.. it was only drizzlingthe 3rd one.. began only after 3 weeks of use to drop the calls..and the winner.. the fourth headset began falling in pieces.. the first thing that happened is the liner or ear cover cracked.. so, it was pinching my ear, it would pull my hair constantly as i was removing it from my head,and for last;the head support broke and by that time i didnt have any other headsets to swap parts to this one, i tried to use it bare metal but then it was pinching my scalp so much that i can't talk more than 5 minutes because then get very painful and this is all after 4 month of use.. still works but who would want to use under the circumstances???


dont put your negative comment of the phone because Verizon sucks

Verizon sucks.  not the phone itself.  simply the best smartphone on the market.  but because Verizon's idiotic policy limits the phone's otherwise super built in features.  Sad Verizon.  Really.  Time to move away from evil Verizon wireless.


Love this phone.

This phone is 100 times better than the Samsung Galaxy SII that it replaced.  Combined with the OtterBox Commuter case this is the best phone I have ever owned.


Hippies Please Use Side Door

This is a nifty little solar charger / backup external battery for anything you can charge via USB. As other reviewers have noted, this is NOT a direct solar charger. Rather, it charges its own internal battery via solar (or wall outlet). You can then use it as an external charger to charge up your electronics.Mine arrived in great condition and was exactly as described. It holds an 80% charge (there are leds that light up on the back when you push a button to show you the charge level) seemingly forever. I've had it in my bag for weeks without charging and it is still at 80%. When charging via sunlight, even using the extra panel, it never seems to achieve a 100% charge. Also, it seems to drop that 100% charge down to 80% in a hurry when charged from a wall outlet.As others have noted, the unit has a limited amount of juice, even at full charge. I've been able to recharge my Android smartphone from about 20% to 100% when the unit is fully charged. However, this should be viewed as more of a backup than a full time charger.The LED light is included almost as an afterthought. I thought it was worthless until I brought it with me camping and it turned out to be a good reading light.  Would buy again.


Good value

The skin fits the iPad 2 just fine. I would have preferred a tighter fit though. Also slightly thinner silicone round the edges around the screen and if nowhere else a tighter fit there. Gapes just a bit on one of the long sides (hence 3 stars). However, it seems like it will offer decent protection, and will certainly prevent scratching. Given how low the price is, it offers excellent value for money.


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.


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. The grip is so impeccable that it slips in without loosening the case.. hence ensuring that the iphone remains well shielded. I hate those corny, expensive and bulky iphone cases that ruin the look of the iphone. This one was the right choice to fit my budget, my style and protects my phone too.


EXTREMELY POOR BATTERY - DON'T BUY

At first I was very excited to get this sleek new phone.  After I had it for a day, I was extremely disappointed. The battery died in less than a day with minimal usage.  I probably used the phone to talk on at most 15 minutes, used no data, played no games, and the battery was dead.  Not very good when you go out at night or just need a reliable phone.  If you are up at 8am and have the phone on --- by about 6pm you get a dead battery.I just can't see buying a phone that is completely dead before dusk.  You can't rely on this phone.  DON'T BUY IT.


belkin F8J008TT

hallo,habe leider ausversehen die bestellung des ladegerät von belkin F8J008tt desktop dock and charger for apple für das iphone 5 aufgegeben.mfg uwe müller


Great GPS Device + So Many Extras

This product does everything it is advertised to do and it pretty good! I'd have to say the only reason it got 4 stars instead of 5 is that it sometimes takes up to 5 minutes to find a satellite...so I find myself sitting in the parking lot waiting and waiting. Overall though, for as many cool perks as you get with this device, I personally don't mind the wait.


great but no one can hear u

this blue tooth headset is great with only one flaw. no one can hear me :( the only time ppl can hear me well is when i turn on the bone conducting thing, but then i sound odd. if u leave it turned off (say in a quiet room ) one would think u dont need it, but then you are so quiet no one can hear me. with all the great reviews i almost feel mine is a dud. ill be taking it back tomorrow.


It works

First, I should point out that this case provides no side overhang to protect the screen.  This was obviously a design decision to keep it as thin as possible. If thickness is important, read on.  But if screen protection is important, look elsewhere.Pros:1. It works. 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.  You must remove the phone from the case first.  I'm not sure what other accessories are incompatible so be careful.  The Lightning connector is clearly not a pure pass-through.


Worst phone ever!

By far the worst phone ever!Hard to use, slow, and very user UN-friendly!Save your money!  Do not buy this phone!


Too small for iPhone 5 with life proof case

I have a life proof case on my iPhone 5 and my phone doesn't fit completely inside this armband case.


hi

I have not get the product I will get it like in April so That is way the low rate.


Simply Outstanding

This case is simply great for my new white Iphone 3Gs.  I would never spend $13.00 for skin case, why because i know so many wholesalers where i can get these sort of cases for just a buck or two (infact i bought similar one for two dollars from a wholesaler). As my new 3Gs was so special, i started looking for accessories online and found Otterbox skin case with so many five star ratings and convince myself to go ahead and order one and see the difference. Oh my God, i am so impressed with this new case as i would definitely recommend anyone for it.  Its great feel in your hand, quality is outstanding and most of all the protection for the phone is not comparable to any local made skin cases.  This quality case with screen protector is absolutely worth the money.


Overwhelm

I just got this wonderful little tool but found it a bit overwhelming.  It may be my age but slowly I am getting the hang of it. Verizonwirless Have been very helpful once I get to a point of frustation. Because I purchased it online I now need to take it to a Verizon store to have my contacts transfered to the Q


Extremely happy!

Let me preface by saying I'm in my early 30's and I am a mom.  I am mostly home, as I work PT out of my house.  I had been a loyal Sprint customer for 11 years.My Sprint contract was coming up.  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.  That beefs up the storage space considerably.  I also upgraded the firmware to Android Ice Cream Sandwich.This phone now replaces my ipod touch and my "dumb" phone.I couldn't be happier!This is a great phone!  Try it!


Defective

I bought this as a gift for my brother, and he had to exchange it for replacements three times because they were all defective, then he decided to forget about it and get a refund.  It's not the sound quality they advertise at all, don't waste your time and energy.


Jack Broke From Ordinary Use

The 3.5 mm jack broke off inside of my iPod touch. It is cheaply made and you get what you pay for. Of all the headphones I have owned, I have NEVER had this happen to me. This was not a result of my neglect in any way, rather, the manufacturer's. After about a couple hours and a lot of thought, I was able to retrieve the broken jack from my iPod. I was blessed. SAVING MONEY ON HEADPHONES IS NOT WORTH PLACING YOUR $200+ IPOD AT RISK!!!!!!!!


Will definately buy it again

This happened to be a great product!  It is exciting to be the first reviewed on something here:PROS:1. It changes my 5S about 4 times before it gives up2, It uses the same iPhone power line so I don't need to carry yet another adaptor3. The flash outlet has changes to accommodate that of 5S and works very well no foggy flash pictures4. The lid, thought a bit flimsy, does a great job of protecting the screen and letting the audio out while closed5. The speaker and microphone outlets do not muffle sound and allow very good sound pass-through6. The form is very very slim,  It looks really tiny and unless you look for where the battery is hidden, it is hard to detect7. Great priceCONS1. The audio jack is too narrow for a standard jack and no adaptor is provided. So basically no earplugs!2. the top corners of the iPhone are not protected and thus makes the phone subject to damage if dropped on its head3. Easily scratches and exposes the white layer beneathI think this is still a great covered battery case at any price, let alone it's almost unique.  definitely recommended.


Nokia Bluetooth Headset

Absolutley the worst head set i have ever experienced. The sound was fine but it would fall off with the slightest movement bending down or raising your head.  I do not recommend.


FAKE!!!

You can even go to the lifeproof website or contact lifeoroof they say amazon is not a provider of lifeproof!!! Please get it from best buy or the lifeproof website do not waste your money!


Pretty good

Overall was good. It protects my phone pretty well. The downside is that it traps the heat as the phone is charging


Overpriced

The description for this product was ambiguous and misleading. I was under the impression that it came with a micro USB charger for the battery kit due to the wording in the description. It was also overpriced. For $10 less i could have gone to Best Buy and purchased the same kit WITH the wall charger. I strongly recommend going to Best Buy and getting more for less. I wish I had.


the left head set went out in a week thats total bs it doesnt work droid tablet i am  very desapointed in the product

Worst blue tooth ever I won't buy agine the ear peace stoped working so I wouldn't recomend them to any body


Allows you to do everything with the phone ... except talk

I bought this because I thought it would be a less expensive option to the high dollar rugged cases.  This cover comes in three pieces; a hard plastic frame with integrated screen protector, a rubber backing that wraps around the sides, and a plastic retainer piece that locks everything together.  It is well built and everything is where it is supposed to be to operate the phone controls.  The screen protector allows full functionality of the phone, and does not interfere with the finger print lock on the 5s.The only problem with this case is that it covers the microphone so the person you are talking to can barely hear you.  My wife got frustrated with having to talk to everyone on speaker phone while using this case.  It lasted about 3 days before we took it off and started looking for another option.


Ideal iPhone5 case

This is the perfect iPhone 5 case. I have always liked elago, but this one's a little different than I've had in the past. It's still minimalist, but the material feels much higher quality. The plastic feels softer. Not rubbery, it's still stiff, but has a little give. Another nice addition is the beveled edges around the back. Makes a huge comfort difference!Two more things. First, I dropped my phone by a pool. It didn't get wet, but really slammed off the concrete. The case was toast, but the phone was fine [that little bit that overlaps the glass really saved me]. I bought a new one and it arrived with the aluminum a bit bent. I emailed elago [with a pic] and they wrote me back about 45 minutes later and are sending me a replacement. I always liked their products, but didn't know how good their service was.


PRACTICALLY USELESS BLUETOOTH

Caveat!! this phone is pretty good, but Verizon has limited the bluetooth capabilities to supporting a headset only, in other words, if you want to get a file (ie: photos, addresses, messages) into or out of the phone, you can't use bluetooth to transfer them to or from your computer.  You must either pay to e-mail them, buy the software/usb cable, or the extra memory card and card reader.  I would have returned the phone, but I didn't buy the bluetooth fob until after the trial period was over.  I've written to Verizon, but always get a corporate doublespeak letter in return, and the problem remains.


An outstanding Value with very minor concessions

The Straight Talk iPhone 5 represents one of the best values in pre-pay mobile phones. Here's what you get: an iPhone 5 that runs on the Verizon Network for 45 dollars a month. The phone has great resale value. Here's what you don't get: LTE Speed, a slightly different looking version of Visual Voicemail. Everything else is the same. The Verizon 3G speeds with the fast processor don't disappoint. I clock 2mbps consistently. This is a great alternative to paying 85-100+ a month with a major carrier. Call Quality and Usage is nearly identical to VZW.


terrible quality

the belt-clip broke off at it's very first use. Because of that, my brand-new Atrix HD fell into a puddle of water and is ruined. Since I got it with a new 2-year commitment, now I would have to pay $450.00 to get it replaced. The loss is not covered by the phones warranty.The seller offered to replace the case,....but what for? The phone is broken and I won't be able to replace it anytime soon!Don't jeopardize your phone with this piece of crapp! Don't buy!


Product and does not work as described.

I purchased this product with the intent to use it in my car for hands free driving.Unfortunately, it does not work properly.  When I call someone the response is that there is a tremendous amount of background noise and that they cannot hear me.So, if you're an iPhone user, I would stick with your ear buds and not this terrible product.Hear is the part that sucks. . .  Since, I didn't save the bubble packaging, I cannot return this product.  What a wast of money.


Worst phone I ever owned

I don't know, and maybe it's just me, but this is the worst cell phone that I have ever owned. I waited several months for this model to come out. I should have waited a few more weeks to read reviews written by consumers.First of all, this phone does everything. 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! This would be the perfect phone for Jacques Cousteau. Yes, you guessed it, half the time people sound like they are underwater. 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. This makes it almost impossible to carry on any kind of conversation without having to repeat entire sentences. Half the time you are trying to piece together what you heard with what you think the other person actually said. It's like doing a crossword puzzle! Oh, and forget about checking your voicemail. It seems that the sound quality of recorded phone messages just doesn't carry well and are especially difficult to understand.When I walked into the Verizon store, I asked the salesperson about the phone. 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. I'm tempted to disconnect this phone and reactivate my old LG. Now that was a great phone!Buyer beware. I'd wait until the bugs are worked out of this one.


Exceeded expectations!

I have been disappointed by cell phone cases before... Not this one! The case is so slim fitting, not bulky at all!  But the best part? The case feels great! Smooth and slightly rubberized... The phone just feels complete with this case on!They also send you 2 free gifts... A complete surprise (thank you btw), I got a small microfiber cleaning cloth and 2 screensavers! Alas the screensavers don't fit right, but that's bc the phone has concave edges to the screen... But I trimmed it a bit to fit.  Don't hesitate! Quality quality item!  I have never felt the desire to review a product on Amazon... Bu this one totally deserves it!


Awesome Phone - Works as designed

We bought the phone system for the same reason as everyone else.  So we could answer and make calls with the cell phones or the landline while upstairs or outside.  It works great for that.  We have had no problems with the bluetooth autosync.  The only issue I find disappointing, and would return the phone to replace it if I could find one that allowed this, is the inability to utilize the cell phone's contact system or at least let me sync my cell phone contacts to the base station.  Having seperate contact databases on each phone is a big inconvenience.  Hopefully AT&T's marketing department is reading our reviews.


Great sound but lousy interface

I really like the sound from the device. 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. You would get more consistency from pulling your uncle's finger. I'm requesting a refund and continuing my search.


Best Android Phone to date !!!

I am android user since start. Started with G1 and Nexus One ( all on AT&T; without contract and payed full price :-( ). This is my 3rd android phone. I didn't need a new phone, nexus one was so cool. But I wanted to feel the Nvidia tegra 2 and $149 with contract wasn't a bad deal. Jumped on to this cool device.Pros:- Best Android phone. Highest resolution in the android bandwagon.- Blazingly fast !!- Good build quality- Nice to add a HDMI cable with the phone, so you can watch the videos and photos from your cellphone in your big screen.- Comes with DLNA app, so you shoot your media from your phone to TV wirelessly !!!Cons:- Phone is extremely slippery in my hands. Got used to the rubberized feel of Nexus One. It slipped out of my hands few times. Better to put a silicon sleeve or something.- It doesn't have Amoled so videos won't popout as in Samsung or Nexus one, but is pretty nice.- Moto blur :-(. But for someone who has used only stock android for 2+ years, moto blur is annoying.By the way it beats my wife iPhone4 phone easily.


Beware few things...

No customer service phone number and tech support info whatsoever.  Contact Amazon and c/s wrote an internal email on behalf to address the issues. Took more than a few days before getting back. Beware of this following: Sound is good but annoying announcer voice on the speaker when speaker first turn on and when it need to recharge [repeat every 30 secs until turn off the speaker itself or plug in the cable]; don't have button to shut off the ringtone through the speaker when phone call come in while the phone already silenced all sounds; last only about 6-7 hrs playtime, not 10 hours as described...


Convenient but too pricey to use....

As my local phone service uses CDMA, I decided to get this phone for $49 with the world SIMS card. I found that it was very convenient for my family to be able to reach me on the same cell number almost anywhere I am in the world. However, after receiving my first bill, I almost flipped! Now when I travel, I still bring the Mobal phone but I switch to a local SIMS as soon as I arrive, then call my family and give them my new number. I always bring the international SIMS for emergencies in case I run out of minutes on my local card...Way cheaper in the long run...in the end I got myself a very cheap GSM phone that I can use when needed.


Not loud enough

Has some nice features but isn't loud enough when using in the car or airport with my Razor cell phone turned up all the way. I replaced  the HS850 with a Jabra and it's much better


Breaks easily

The case is amazing until it snaps.... Had the case for 2 months and its broken. Getting the phone out of the case is extremely difficult, requires the case to flex slightly so the phone can be taken out. The flexing causes the plastic to weaken and then crack. The reason you need to get your phone out of the case is because its not compatible with many docks because of its bulky size. If you "NEVER" plan on taking your phone out once put in, then the case is awesome. If you plan on using a dock and taking the phone in/out of the case DO NOT buy it, it will break!


Excellent item...

Its an excellent experience to but this product as it fullfill and serve my purpose.Its of very good quality and on time shipping....Great deal...


Beautiful, Sturdy, and Practical

I love this phone case with the wallet wrap pouch. The phone case is black with a matching polka dot on the back side.  The back of the case is magnetic and strongly holds on to the inside of the wallet pouch so you should have no worries about your phone falling out.  There are three slots on the left flap that can hold an ID, two credits, and a few bills.  I know there are complaints about it not holding more than a few cards, but really, it's first and foremost a phone case.  The added bonus of a wallet feature should thrill you.  Maybe I'm easily amused, but I could carry this case by itself and put my lipgloss in my pocket, so I'm a happy camper.  No need for a purse.


Do your research

I took this to a cell phone repair place and they told me these are useless and a "rip off" because you can't use it to replace broken glass.  There are underlying parts that need to be replaced too.


Signal issues

I have encountered problems with signal interference since I put the case on. Removed the case and no more dropped calls. Case interferes with cell signal.


awesome case

This case is seriously awesome! If you are looking for a high quality phone case for a good price this is the way to go! I have never wrote a review but is was so good I felt like I needed to. Also really fast shipping was a plus to o!!


Phone is very good looking, functional. Slightly misleading memory spec.

I am enjoying this phone very much. To pay under 200 dollars for a Re-branded One X is quite a nice treat. A word about the 16 GB memory on the phone... Only 2 GB is available for apps! 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. The memory card slot can actually take certain makes of 64 GB sdhc cards so do a search.The battery is average, and cannot be removed. However, aggressive power management sorts this out... Provided you are careful about the apps you install, for instance Skype is notorious for halving battery time. If you actually let the battery trickle charge from 85 percent to 100 you will see an overall increase in battery capacity after a few charges.The 4.7 inch screen is great to type on and looks gorgeous, in public this phone doubles your wow factor. The wifi is dual band, 5ghz has good range, and the phone does a good job for a phone of holding signal, and negotiation for bit rate. Since phones are limited by their size I suspect wifi signal will always be more problematic than tablets or laptops... This phone does well for its form factor.I have been pleasantly surprised by this phone, This was going to be a stopgap phone as I tried out Ting, I will probably not upgrade as soon as I had planned, I have no need.Two updates in the comments section.


Too Short

The belt clip made for the Nokia 8260 is practical when it comes to keeping the phone on you vs. the floor, however, the clip is too short and cannot even make around an average belt like most phone clips (aftermarket or otherwise) do. Therefore, you cannot place it on your belt without worrying that you may still drop the phone.


Waste of money

Is there zero stars???  Got to europe, but the sim in, and....NOTHING. Really messed up my trip as I had to find other options. DONT BUY.


Super cute, great colors

Very happy with this case, I get tons of compliments on it. Bright color and great quality for the price!


Has its pros and cons

I've had the phone for a little over a month nowPros:-Box comes packed with accessories. Two batteries. Car charger. Regular charger socket (I requested an Irish and American one and they were happy to oblige). USB cable that fits the socket. Earphones (mine were broken). Instruction manual. 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. It is literally just a light. A very dim light at that.Biggest pro is obviously the price. That cannot be beaten!Biggest con is the camera/flash.


Does not have a good stand by time

It will charge my phone three times from a full charge but, it does not have a good stand by time! Example- If you fully charge it on Sunday it will be completely dead on Friday without using it at all. They say it will stand by for up to six months, I must of got a dud or it's BS.  Not worth the trouble of returning it.


Love it!

I love it! 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. Although it did take nearly three weeks to receive the case I love it. I used to have an otter box which was great but expensive and this case does practically the same thing. 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. I feel like if you are rough with your phone this is not the case for you because it could be a little flimsy but overall a good case.The only really downfall of this case is there is no protective screen like in the otter box.


Fuzzy picture

I'm really disappointed. I picked this TARDIS cover over all the others because many of the reviews raved about how good the picture quality is. I don't know what they're talking about.I was so excited to get it, I ripped open the package right in the mailroom and I was so sad to see what I'd ended up with. 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. The only reason I'm not giving it one star is because it seem like a pretty sturdy case.


Mediocre.

The case wraps the phone in silicone rubber. 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. It's cheap, about the price of a screen protector, and since it comes with one, I don't feel too badly about having spent the money.


don't leave home without it!

Great find! Small size, easily portable. Well built unit. I usually charge it via USB cable but it is nice having solar panel as a backup and I think that helps keep it at full charge between uses. Battery will give a full charge to my smartphone while on the road which is great for travel or when an electrical outlet is not handy.Only negative is that the included adapter plugs are flimsy and the one I use most broke in half. So I replaced the entire cord/adapter combo with a dedicated micro USB cord.


You're better off spending less money for a better product elsewhere

I bought this case as a way to get rid of the bulky wallet and having my phone in one neat arrangement when going out to bars or clubs. However, after about 2 weeks of use I noticed that the stitching is already falling apart.A few things I noticed was:When trying to take photos and limited to the use of only one hand (the Iphone is designed for use with only one hand), its a bit clumsy to do without having to remove the phone from the case.Not the safest for drops on the side of your phone, but great for reducing the impact of falls and protects the screen from scratchesDon't get it wet. Although it's leather and denim, the material underneath the linings will bow and bend if contact is made with water.


WOOT

i usually dont write reviews for things that han't come out, but i just got excited when i saw this was finally being released. WOOOO!! cant wait, this is a great show.


It is very special.

The contrast color design of this case makes my phone distinctive. It is very special. And it's just the right thickness, not makes my phone too bulky. I’d like to buy from the seller in the future.


Excellent!!!!

The color is beautiful, the fit is perfect, the transaction was smooth and fast and I couldn't be more pleased.


Great Case for your GS4 mini

Review is for Trident Case AG-S4MINI-BK Aegis Series Case for Samsung Galaxy S4.This case fits the Samsung Galaxy S4 mini. 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.  The free screensaver seems like some bonus afterthought.  I need my phone to be able to take a beating for me and I believe this phone case is up to the task.


very good

It gives me that extra time on my cell that I need, you just have to program yourself to not charge it when it get's low.


Easy, not bulky, really like it

Easy to charge up & take with me, not bulky, extra ports are easy to access, really enjoy having it


Makes your screen oily and full of horrible finger prints

Given the description and price for this product i expected it top be of top class. This 1 makes oily finger prints on your screen.Did not like it at all


Great Product

This is the most well designed holster I've ever had.  The spring clip at the top makes it easy to remove or place the phone in the holder with one hand and the phone can be holstered face in or face out.  I recommend it highly.


Excellent phone

I owned this phone for 2 months already. It's my 4th Samsung phone and I never had any problems.The computer chip of this phone is much faster than any other previous model. The menus are easy to use. the LCD quality is phenomenal. It has a huge memory capability, with the option of adding an extra memory card (micro SD). You can store all of your media and address book entry in the memory card if you wish.PROS: picture quality, easy to use, mp3 player, 2 stereo speakers, bluetooth (OBEX), very light and durable.CONS: keys are too small, battery life, it doesn't come w/ car charger, price


Great Value I would recomend this to any one

for the price it works and looks great My son already dropped it and it did'nt hurt a thing. And it shipped fast


iPhone 4G?

Apple does not make any such thing as an iPhone 4G. This is either a knockoff or false advertisement. All iPhones connect to the 3G network, NOT 4G.


Works as intended

It works fine.  It charges well and the largest battery for the price I could fine.  The LED flashlight is bright enough and charges every cell phone and ipod I have.  Does not charge an iphone but oh well.


Excellent!

When I would get a new phone it would come with a clip that hooked up to my belt or pocket of my pants. When the clip would snap off or bend from it getting snagged on something, I had to either carry my phone or put it in my pocket. With this phone necklace, I never have to worry about losing my phone, or leaving it out of reach of a phone call. I am very surprised I have not seen this item become more popular. It even looks kind of cool. Very well designed, but it could be cheaper, imo.. But then again, I've never seen them sold at Wal-mart.


Sent me a USED battery and it didn't fit my G2

The battery, LiveSpan sent me was USED and it was the wrong battery as well. How can they be so reckless? I am positive that I have a T-Mobile G2 and the description says it is for a t-mobile G2


Perfect for me, but a bit expensive.

The case seems to be be well made.  I like the texture of the case, it's sorta 'rubbery.'  I have no problems with the camera and flash (black version).I'm currently carrying one CC, two IDs, and three business cards.  The case has no problem holding them.  they're easy to insert and remove.  The case thickness is more than acceptable.  People who complain about the case being thick are obviously making the wrong purchase in the first place. Use logic... obviously if you're adding $$, CC, IDs.. the thickness is going to increase.. [...]The magnetic strap to keep the case closed works very well.  It's strong enough to where it won't open when I'm holding and shaking the CC side, but it's easy enough to open the case with one hand.  Other people who complain must have a defective magnet or something.  ***One reviewer mentions having to replace CC's because the magnet clasp destroys the information on the CC's magnetic strip.  I hope this is not true; else I will have to lower this wallet's rate to 1 star.The nexus 5 is not hard to remove, but it's very secure.  (I remove it by the upper left corner first and then work my way down the left side.  It is secure, so you do have to hold the lower left case while removing it)LOL@ the review who's wanting to store coins in this case. Maybe he should buy coin purse.-2 stars because it's extremely expensive.  My dad has an iphone wallet that is much more versatile and he paid $3.  This case should have at least came with two screen protectors for how much it costs. BUT, the materials used, and the stitching seem high quality, so I'm going to assume that's why it's so expensive.EDIT: "Abacus24-7 [PocketBook] Vegan Leather Wallet Flip Case for Google Nexus 5" looks like they're selling the exact same case for $9~... check that out before you buy this one.UPDATE*** I've been carrying a CC in the case for a few weeks now and I haven't had any problems with the magnet on the case causing the CC to not work.  +1 star for this


very cheap material

I bought it because of the reviews, and for my surprise it wasn't as described. It feel very cheap for a very expensive phone. I also bought the Case Mate Pop! Hard Shell Case and i Love it! But now they raise the price.


Save Your Money, get something else

I gave blackberry a chance to prove it can deliver an excellent device. Instead, BB came out with a cheese cheap plastic looking device. I almost faint when I un-boxed the phone. The keyboard does not work properly, the browser freezes, the erase key gets stuck, it erases everything I would write. The keyboard is a total mess. Apps are very limited, in my opinion. I strongly will not recommend this phone.


So cute but im sad

I love this case it was the first one i bought for my iPod it is great at protecting, love the colors. But it broke almost as soon as i got it which is sad so i hope to return it and get a new one.


Great case + great price = Great Value

As soon as I became the proud owner of a white iPhone 4S I went looking for a high quality clear case at a reasonable price. My criteria:1. The case had to be clear so I can admire the phone itself. Otherwise, why buy white!?!2. Solid rubber-like material but still flexible. No hard plastic that can chip, crack, or come flying off when dropped.3. Easy, direct access to all buttons, jacks, etc.4. Minimal additional bulk.5. Lightweight.6. Under $20.This case meets all of my requirements, and then some!!! It only costs $8.99. It comes with a nice plastic shield. And the cleaning cloth is a nice addition since Apple no longer includes one with the iPhone.


BEST MOST COMPACT CHARGER!

This charger is a rugged well made charger! I bought this for long bike rides so I can charge my phone. I did not want to buy an extended battery pack for my phone due to issues with the size of my bike mount and any other case. I have sold 5 of these just to people who have seen mine and I have helped at least 10 other people grab a quick charge from me. I even let Android users borrow it! (said the iPhone snob). The adapters are well made, work great and are easy to switch to charge any device. The lights are easy to see and assure you are getting a charge or charging the charger. The rounded shape makes it nice to carry in a pocket, bike pouch, or purse. The weight is what you would expect from a battery with a long life expectancy and high quality. I highly recommend this product for anyone on the go. The red also matched by bike!


Jabra BT-8040

This is an outstanding Bluetooth phone device!  The sound quality is wonderful and clear.  Very easy to pair up and use with my Motorola phone. It's small size is great and it's effortless to wear it. I'd HIGHLY recommend this product.  Don't spend a dime more for some costly similar item.  This device is all you need.


Bold OS combined with an eye catching design

First off the phone is just such a unique and wonderfully engineered phone. 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. All in all this is the coolest and best phone I have had to date.


Cool

The case is Purple.The black part you see is just the black iPhone.I have another one I bought out the mall for $20 so this was a good deal.It protected my phone.Overall its decent.


Works as Advertised

I have read many reviews about this product, many not so flattering. 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.


super battery

I like this phone. Its big and HD screem, long time stand-by battery, smooth OS operation...It is worty of my money.


): They wast my time

The SIM doesn't work, and also it miss item under the battery. One more things about the catalog that came with the phone that wrote with another language, so this make for me difficulties to understand the siting.


Does not fit

This must be for the prior model because it does not work with the jawbone 24 Up. This shouldn't be offered as a companion to the up24.


Eh... it's alright

I initially bought this phone as a replacement for a smartphone. I wanted something with better battery life. I got this but after a week, I noticed that whenever I would try to send a text message, the phone would crash and restart. I liked some features such as the 3.5mm aux jack on the top, the flashlight, FM radio(as long as you have headphones plugged in) and the battery life. 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.


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.


Love it!!

Exactly as pictured & advertised. It offers solid, full protection for your iPhone and snaps securely into place. The "lens" in the front actually expands to simulate a zoom feature and the overall look COMPLETELY disguises your phone to make it look like a cute little digital camera!Just received it this afternoon and took it to the park with my kids. MANY parents smiled and commented on how cute the cover was, especially when I took pics of my kids and they first thought it to be a camera! This cute cover is perfect for male OR female iPhone owners and the quality is worth TWICE what they're charging!Don't hesitate - you won't regret this lightweight, adorable novelty cover. :)


Cannot use device in the rear position

Pro: nicely made from quality materials and it looks nice.Con:1) It is too light. Do NOT believe anyone who writes that you can pull your device off this dock with one hand. It is a two handed operation.2) Whatever Apple device is placed in the rear charging position will be blocked from use while in the dock. You have to remove the device (two-handed) in order to reach the "Home" button at the bottom, because it is blocked behind the dock support and the device in front. So this will charge your iPad in the rear position, but don't expect to have access to using it without pulling it out of the dock each time.3) It does not come with Apple-compliant charging cables. This was not a surprise but it would have been helpful if the cables came with the dock.


Smart design ruined by super cheap construction

Got this holder for my road bike, design is very smart and compact in size, doesn't take a lot of space on the handle bar since it mounts on the stem. however the biggest problem with this holder is the materials it's made of, it's cheap foamy plastic that cannot handle vibrations or sudden impacts over bumps when riding a road bike, the way the holder is designed with the phone hanging on the edge and the attachment on the bottom makes all road vibrations heavily concentrated at the junction point creating excessive stress, like a load fulcrum line going right through where it attaches on the bar. 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.


Beware!

First of all, I like the phone, but there is a major flaw with it.  Within a week of getting this phone, the paint had chipped off of one of the pieces (right under the space key).  The seller replaced it, then later a piece of paint chipped on the side of the phone.  Today, I noticed that the place with the original chip was chipped again.  I don't know what the problem is; I have never dropped the phone and put it in the cell phone pocket of my purse.  I would definitely not recommend this product!


Good phone

This phone is great easy to see and size just right. Good android phone. Easy and quick excess to the internet.


Best headset of the three I've used

I don't have a lot of experience with Bluetooth headsets, but I can compare this to the low-end Jabra VBT 135 that came int he "Bluetooth Package" with my Verizon Wireless LG VX8300, and with the Motorola H850 that my wife and I bought at the same time as this one. 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).


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. There are households with two cars who may only need a simple car charger, but most households need and want dual port car chargers. If you are going solo, you can charge up both a your iPhone or iPad when you are traveling. This is a spring-loaded, very attractive (for once) charger that fits snugly in my 12V DC lighter socket. It’s only 1.1 x 2.44 inches, one of the most compact models I’ve seen.Simultaneous charging is a real plus with the Roker. You simply use your own USB devices cables. The charger is very solid and stable even though it is quite lightweight. A blue LED light on the interface indicate that a charge is in progress. The strategically designed circuit will prevent over-heating, over-charging and excessive current. The input and output specifications labeled on the side of the charger. This is a nice high-performance, dual port charger that is perfect for charging more than one device ... and is quite affordable. It also comes in white with a red band, if you prefer.The Roker USB car charger”has been designed to connect specifically to iPhone or iPad or iPod,and has been certified by the developer to meet Apple performance standards,” a real plus for those who use Apple devices.

If you want a car charger specifically designed for your Apple products that is a high-performance one, this is one you may wish to consider.SPECS:► DC input voltage: 12 VDC to 18 VDC► Output voltage: 5V = 2.1A + 1A (3.1 amps max.)► Over-current protection► Short-circuit protection► Over-heating protection► Material: PC► Color: Black with a 1/2” red band.► Dimensions: 1.1 x 2.44 inches inches (30 x 62mm)► Weight: .8 ounces► Certificate: CE, RoHS, FCCSample provided for review.


How To Exit iRig Recorder on IOS

I read couple of reviews where some of you were unable to exit the iRig Recorder that is used with iRig Mic and iRig Cast.  I downloaded the iRig Recorder from the App Store and played with the software.  To exit the iRig Recorder software when you close the App; bring up iRig Recorder and goto SETUP.  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.  This threw me off also but I played with all the buttons and purchased the upgrade for $7.99 from the App Store.  I think it is pretty cool to email the recording in M4a format.  You can download a free converter on the internet that will convert m4a format to MP3 on your computer.  Would have been cool to export to DropBox but it is what it is.


Tested it, works great :D

I just received it, my cell phone fits (and I have a 33,600 whatever battery, so my phone is bigger than normal). I can use the phone through the plastic, so that's good, but I still have to test it underwater :D[EDIT] Tested it by inserting some toilet paper (which is very absorbent), and a bottle of perfume to give it weight, and left it under water in my tub for about 30 minutes, no moisture came into the plastic and the paper was dry when I took it out :D can't wait to have a chance to go to the beach and take some underwater pics with my phone :D
