Go ahead buy this product

I bought this case for my Samsung Focus S (AT&T;) windows phone.  It is a very good product.  Here is what I have noticed so far:1. The case fits very snugly on the phone.  No issues.2. All camera switches are easily reachable and usable.  No issues.3. 100% of the phones screen is visible.  Nothing is hidden by the case.  No issues.4. If the phone falls on its back, side, top, corner or bottom, the case will certainly provide support.  Its thinkness is about 1mm.  So if the phone falls flat on its face but the glass does not touch any object, the case shoudl still provide some support.  So it is adequate.5. The case provides a reasonable grip.  Much better than the naked phone but still sleek and comfortable.I think the case is good and I recommend it for the above phone.


Great Design...Bass Lacking

I picked these up after I accidentally broke my pair of A-Jays Ones, which I loved. I figured if I was going to buy another pair, it might as well have the iPhone mic built in. I wound up returning them and going for another pair of the Ones. Here's the rundown...THE GOODThe Fours have the same terrific design as the Ones, and the mic/control is terrific. The buttons are easy to find and the different shapes make them easy to differentiate. The whole setup really looks like these should be what come with the iPhone instead of Apple's stock headset. I didn't really care about the adapters that came with the Twos and Threes, so the fact that they weren't included here didn't really bother me.THE BADAfter unpacking what I thought was going to be the perfect pair of headphones, I put them on and was immediately disappointed in the lack of bass. My Ones had great bass. It was strong, but not overwhelming. The bass coming out of the Fours is almost nonexistent. I had read some other reviews saying that the phones were tuned to amplify voice frequencies, but there really is a massive drop-off in bass from the Ones, and it was something I couldn't get past. It unfortunately reminded me of listening to my laptop speakers. I even tried two pairs to make sure that I didn't get a bad set.THE BOTTOM LINEPersonally I prefer the Ones. If they could make a set of headphones that had the sound quality of the Ones and the features of the Fours, I would be a very happy camper. In the mean time though, I'll settle for my Ones for music and my Bluetooth for calls.


Does NOT work with B&N Nook Color

my Nook Color freaked out when this was plugged in. I have used other charging sources before without problem, but when this was plugged in it immediately started opening and closing windows as if I was rolling my face over the screen. Might work fine for other devices, but I would not recommend using on a Nook Color.Update: Xperia play phone had same issue as nook. Replacement charger was sent, and it has the exact same problem as the original. When the charger was on my phone it flipped through screens and re-dialed a recent call. Avoid this.Nice of them to add the "NOTE: NOT COMPATIBLE WITH NOOK COLOR" text...little late for me though.


noise and vibrations

Got my v3 yesterday. Has anyone else noticed the really bad noise interference - high pitched and continuous, or the annoying vibration under your thumb from the keyboard as you text etc???Also this phone is extremely simplistic compared to my sony ericcson. Am afraid I will be sending mine back.


love it

This battery/kit is also for the AT&T; Samsung Galaxy S2 Skyrocket aka SGH-I727.Kit is great, a plastic holder for the battery and a holder for the phone. The holder is just that, a holder. No usb power hookup so when your phone is on the holder it sits there.. only the battery in the back will charge.When its charging the light is red, when its done it turns green. i assume this turns off the charging and i can leave the battery on there but im not sure?anyways, its great. I get nervous with micro/mini usb always plugging/unplugging... now i dont need to.. the case has a power supply always plugged into it and i can just swap batteries.buying another one so i have one at home and one at work.Updated: bought my 2nd one and haven't looked back. love it!also, i have a case on my phone and the holder still works!i recomend this for EVERY skyrocket user! extra battery + charger + holder!


NOOSY SIM Cutter

After reading the reviews for some SIM cutters (perhaps from other vendors), I wasn't sure what to expect, but the cutter I received from HandHeldItems at Amazon was sturdy and functioned exactly as advertised.  I cut a standard SIM card down to micro-sim format to use in an iPhone.  The cutter cut the SIM card perfectly, and the modified card didn't need any additional trimming or finishing.  My unlocked iPhone works perfectly with the modified card.


First smart phone and I LOVE it!

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


Beautiful Product

This product is great for larger phones like the GS4. It adds almost no extra size to an already nearly unmanageable phone in an average hand. It really is a crystal clear piece of glass with perfect optics. I didn't notice any change in the image quality of the GS4 screen after adding the Spigen Screen Protector. I haven't noticed any change in the sensitivity of the touchscreen either. Everything works as it did without the product. And the tempered glass really does work. I dropped the phone from about 4 ft face first onto tile and I assume the product was the reason the screen didnt shatter as I have seen on countless youtube durability test videos.My issue seems to be a degradation of the adhesive. The only area where I am having this issue is on the right side of the phone. It has been about 5 days now and after the second day the screen protector started to have air bubbles forming underneath. They are growing by day and seem to be slowly encompassing the right side of the device. The real issue here is that dust is starting to find its way into the voids being formed and is compounding the issue. The air bubbles are growing quicker and quicker.The fact that its just the right side of the device that is failing may indicate I received a flawed screen protector but for $35 I would expect more. If this product did stay intact on the phone I would certainly give it 5 stars but since it is only a matter of time before the adhesive completely fails I have to consider it a failed screen protector.Update: Spigen contacted me regarding my adhesive problems and sent me a replacement. Great Customer Service.


ehh not the best

works nicely from a complete side view but from looking at an angle can still see the screen also its incredibly thick and makes the iphone look bulky unlike in the picture. get your moneys worth i guess.


bezels like the iPhone 5

The dang note 3 is big enough, the hard bezels is uncomfortable.  But this was the only case that fit tight and the lip.  Already dropped the phone and case protected like supposed.


Picture Messaging (MMS) Fix

This is a really cool phone. My step-daughter loves it. As far as the picture messaging goes for T-Mobile you can find their generic settings by Googling "T-Mobile generic MMS settings". On the phone tap Menu/Messages/Settings/Multimedia messages/Profiles/Create/Set name. Call it T-Mobile MMS and then enter the settings. Alternatively you can try to find a nice customer service rep at a "real" store, they'll do it for you. It's not one of their phones so some of their reps might say no (but it is your service plan, so they usually say yes).As far as the startup language goes, the instructions that came with my phone said to insert the SIM card first, prior to doing anything else to have it come up in English instead of German. I noticed that afterwards but knew enough German to find the right setting. If you don't have a year or two to study another language, this is a goog time to try Google translate...


Perfect for the Right User

I bought this phone the day it launched, and as someone who has used Android phones since the launch of the G1, I can say that I am very pleased.If you are considering buying this phone, it is certainly because of the keyboard.  Let me assure you, you will not be disappointed.  It is the best keyboard I've used on any phone, and I have tried many.  It's comfortable and spacious, and the keys are easy to identify and make a satisfying click when pressed.  Complete with a dedicated number row (lacking on Blackberry phones and most Android devices), it's just fantastic.The phone is built like a tank.  I don't use a case or screen protector, and neither feels needed.  While I have read reports of poor battery life, I can attest that with LTE (which is astonishingly fast), push email on two accounts, and lots of texting and emailing throughout the day, I have no problem at all making it through a full day with about 40% remaining.The tradeoff to the wonderful keyboard is that the phone is rather bulky.  It is, however, svelte for a slider-keyboard phone.  Another tradeoff is the screen.  It will display sharp, crisp images at rest, but any motion on the screen is extremely blurry, and it lacks the vivid colors of the iPhone or Galaxy Nexus.  Still, it's perfectly fine.  For reading emails and texts, and the occasional website, it's great.  If you're someone who watches a lot of video on your phone, you should probably look elsewhere.  Likewise, if you're searching for a great phone camera, you won't find it here.  The 8 megapixel camera on the phone is fine for the occasional snapshot, and I've gotten some very nice images out of it, but it pales in comparison to even the iPhone 4.  My EVO Shift had a better camera.Long story short, this is *not* a multimedia phone.  It is a communication device, and function is absolutely placed above form.  If you have to have the best keyboard phone on the market, look no further.  If you *don't* want a keyboard, you're better off with something like the ReZound or iPhone.


Works perfectly with Kindle Fire

Best priced replacement charger for Kindle Fire.  Activates charging light on Kindle so I know when the charge is complete.  Thanks, Amazon.


No charge power

The item doesn't hold a charge long enough. I will charge fully in the morning then put in my purse until it's needed close to evening time to charge my phone then there is no charge power. This item sucks. I won't recommend this item to anyone. Would love a refundI purchased 6 of them.


NOT For iPhone 4s

This device will not work with the iPhone 4S. When plugged in, nothing happens. The phone does not recognize the charger.


For business use only

I returned this item for the following reasons:Political-I am completely disgusted with Nokia's involvement in supporting the Islamic regime of Iran in further oppressing its people. By cutting off its digital airwaves Nokia has colluded to perpetuate isolation of the Iranian freedom movement.Phone Features-1- After using a Palm for many years, I could not get over the inferior visual quality of the screens and the icons.2- The phone keeps locking and I had no way to asking it not to lock the home page.3- the text messaging was chronological but it did not keep a conversation string on the same page.Overall-As someone who uses Mac and Palm, I was surprised that non-user-friendly phones like this still exist.If you want to use it for business it had features that were helpful and if you don't care about the political bend of who you support, this phone might be a possibility. For me I feel literally and figuratively liberated after I returned this phone.


Looks nice, but no protection.

It looks nice on your phone, but when my wife dropped hers, the screen shattered anyway. If you're looking for protection, looks elsewhere, but if you just want a pretty case, this is fine!


Would not purchase

We were able to conect to our devices but no sound would come out of the speakers , the phone would connect but you couldn't talk into it !


Fast charging BL Brand Dual USB Wall Charger

The charger was received quickly and works as advertised. The dual port feature allows us to charge two iPhones or a phone and a Kindle at the same time. The blue power LED lets you know it is in a working duplex recepticle. This is a handy unit to use on a cruise or while traveling when socket space is limited.This dual port charger is very convenient. It is fast charging and works great. It is a convenient device to use away or at home.


Retro 80's telephonic brick - Don't buy, unless you're Magnum PI!

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


Good Phone....

My picture messaging was not working at first and the carrier I which too claim the phone did not support their service!! Well they were wrong!!! I had to call Blu customer service 1-877 number in Florida and he told me how to set it so I could send picture messaging in in 2 minutes and I spent 2 days with this carrier and they didn't know nothing!! I advice anyone if you have any setting issues, contact Blu directly because now I'm one happy customer!!!! :)The phone is working sweet!!


Zero stars: it did not work.  Probably a counterfeit

When I tried to recharge my phone, I got a message tellingme it was an unauthorized charger.  No, I did not order the wrong charger.  Given the charger's price, my suspicion is the charger was counterfeit.  But I will grant the possibility that it was simply a defective charger.


Absolutely Awesome!

I'm not going to write about how good this phone is, but rather share my experiences with other phones:Starting with the iPhone, I had been an iPhone user since inception up until the release of Galaxy SIII. I switched to the Galaxy because I felt like the iPhone was exactly the same phone every year despite me buying a new model every year. Literally, the same phone, I bought the new iPhone every year hoping something 'cool' was added, but nothing, same look and feel.I went from the iPhone to the Galaxy SIII because I had heard great things about Android. Sure enough, I enjoyed the phone, though not as slick as the iPhone, the Android Operating System was a refreshing experience. This honeymoon lasted about one month, and then couldn't stand the phone. The battery drain was just too much, then people told me, root it!!! That's the way to go! Samsung's TouchWiz interface is a battery killer and is clunky. Okay. I rooted the phone and installed basic Google apps. Okay battery life did greatly improve and I was happy again. Until I realized that I had installed a ROM that was supported by a Community of brilliant people, I must say, but I was a BETA tester!!! I couldn't take the crashes, and basic functionality bugs... So I went back to the iPhone because even though I was sick of it, it at least lasted me half the day.I bought the BlackBerry Z10 and haven't looked back, I haven't been this excited about a phone since the first iPhone, when I switched from a Nokia. It was night and day, and that's how I feel right now. Going from Galaxy and iPhone to a BlackBerry is literally night and day. Incredible battery life (up to a day and a half of intensive use before a charge), true multi tasking.. this is truly amazing. I remember when the Apple introduced the multi app function, but was it really multi tasking? Clearly not, currently you cannot go to Youtube, listen your your favorite mix and reply to a text, or go to Facebook. The minute you leave YouTube, the music stops... That's not the case in the Z10, you can navigate the entire phone, open any app, and the music/video is still playing. True multitasking.Awesome phone, really powerful operating system. Incredible response to touch, so fast and responsive. A++++++


READ THE TITLE!!!

This is meant for a reserve battery and is great with emergency. I am a student and this works great if I forget to charge my Iphone and find out it has 20% battery left and need to get to a class. If you needed a battery that charges more than 30% then get a Mophie Quick Charge or a Mophie battery case.P.S. This little device saved me when my car broke down and my Iphone had 5% charge. I LOVE MOPHIE!!!


Had to return two of them

There is a manufacturers defect on the switch. After about a month of turning off and on every other day or so, the power switch gets stuck in the "pairing mode" and doesn't go to the regular on. Result: No music will play via Bluetooth.Great speakers until the switch breaks.Bottom line: if you don't *ever* turn it off, it is a great speaker. Otherwise... Worthless.


Good LOCKED Phone - Just $99 At MetroPcs

The LG F6 is a LOCKED phone selling for $99 locked to MetroPcs and for $150 locked to T-Mobile. The F6 works ONLY on the T-Mobile/MetroPcs network. The MetroPcs webstore has the lowest price.The tiny amount of internal memory for apps requires you to install a 16gb or 32gb micro SD memory card and select it as the default storage location.  Your music and photos should be stored on the micro SD memory card, saving space in the tiny internal memory for apps.The lack of memory for installing apps is not a problem unless you plan to install large games or a dozen large apps.  A few apps, such as Netflix and Spotify, can be moved to the micro SD card. Plan to spend about $30 for a 32gb microSD card to make the F6 useful for storing music, videos and photos.The LG F6 provides good internet service ONLY if your town has high speed 4G data speeds which you can verify by entering your home address on the coverage map on the MetroPcs website. About half of American homes are reached by the T-Mobile/MetroPCS 4G network.The camera provides adequate quality photos in bright sunlight but is not very good indoors using flash.  Music sounds great with good headphones or bluetooth speakers. Netflix movies look good on the large screen, which has good color and contrast.


Phone

I like this phone and all but you sent me the lg env touch and it says its suppose to be the lg voyager.


Disapointing.

I <3 my Otterbox. But the limited range of colors is a huge drawback. When I saw these otterbox covers, I thought my problems were solved. Unfortunately, they're incredibly disappointing. I posted some pictures to show some of the more glaring flaws, but I'll also list them:Tabs for bottom sides are cut incorrectly, doesn't fit in the slot properly.Huge gaps around mute button and earphone jackHuge gap around connector tabPoor fit around speaker causes some bubbling.It's kind of loosely *around* the same size and shape as the original otterbox cover, but poorly iterated. It's also thinner than the otterbox cover, which means less shock absorption, And gaps aside, it doesn't fit as snugly as the original skin does, which means it's much less water resistant than the Otterbox skin. I'll probably keep it, and use it occasionally, mostly because it's not really worth the hassle of returning it. But I wouldn't buy it again.


disappointed

Lumia 920 reviewI've had this phone for just 3 weeks and I am very disappointed! Prior to thus, I had used various models of Blackberries over the past 3 years, the last one being the 9860 all touch model.Overall, it has a great hardware, but the windows phone 8 software is not very functional hence the 1* rating. My old blackberry 9860 is miles ahead in terms of functionality.The Good:Beautiful design, excellent camera, fluid interface and very responsive to touch.The Bad:Mine gets hot (not warm) when using the map applications (Here, Drive+)The map application does a very poor job of pin pointing my location and giving directions (compared to the blackberry maps)No file manager. You can use it as a USB drive to store files, but there is absolutely no way to access the files without connecting the phone back to a computer.Managing contacts in the 'people' app is cumbersome -  you have to navigate through multiple 'edit Hotmail' sections in the contact to find the specific property (phone number, email address, ....) you want to edit.Not all text interfaces allow you to initiate a phone call to a phone number or email to an email address by tapping on the number/email address (example - whatsapp chat interface, web browser interface). And worse still, you can't copy and paste a phone number into the phone dialer!When replying or forwarding emails, you can only attach pictures 😠. To attach office documents you have to go to the office hub and send share.There is no way to attach any other file types stored on the phone.No intuitive way to manage or create playlists. You have to go through some cryptic routine to get these done.Poor battery life, always needs to be recharged by mid-day!You cannot copy and paste cell contents to replicate formulas in excelInserting the cursor within words to edit them is very difficultMost applications stay in portrait mode,  with no option to auto rotate.  this phone is quite


Exceeds Expectations!

.The Friendly Swede rocks!THE GOODThe stylus is high quality and the microfiber glides across the screen of my iPad like magicVery happy with this stylus and if you have been using the crummy rubber tips, switch to this immediatelyI'm a big person (6'2" 250lbs) so I appreciate large things, but this stylus is almost too long.Think chopsticks and you will have a good idea what I mean.From a usability standpoint, AWESOME - no more teeny, tiny pencil nub of a stylus, this thing is really coolTHE MEHMy only complaint - it won't stay in your pocket because the clip is too high.It kinda, sorta works to clip on the side of my iPad case, but the stylus is long enough that I am afraid it's going to catch on something.if your case holds the stylus inside the fold, THIS IS THE STYLUS FOR YOU AND I LOVE MINETHE BADI don't have a bad, it's all pretty good.I wish it had a pen feature, but I can wait for it to developCONCLUSIONBuy a stylus from the Swede.Even if it's not this one, the quality and delivery is really great


Lovely looking case.But........................

Bought this as a gift for my wife.Superbly built with a fit better than anything else on the market.Unfortunately it has a serious design flaw that the other 2 reviews appear to not have mentioned!Once this case is fitted and screwed in place, you cannot dock your phone into any kind of sync cradle or speaker dock.Your phones connector ends up too high within the case to make a connection.If this was simply a snap on/off case then you wouldn't have to much of a problem, but being screwed in place, makes the whole thing totally impractical.The only work around is a small dock extender that can be purchased at a cost of over $25, so not a cheap fix after spending $80 on a case in the first instance.Remembering to cart this little gadget around with you from home to work or anywhere else would soon have it's annoyances.All that said, if you don't dock your iphone into any kind of charging cradle or speaker dock... then this is the case for you.Superb fit with looks to boot, just such a shame about design error.


out of sight

well the packaging was great, the 1 day service was wonderful, and the samsung fascinate is just hum im out of words. my husband likes it more than i. i told him you better get your own. mine not for sale. 5  stars yall.


Not New

The item arrived quickly but it was very apparent that the batteries are not new. The casing was extremely scratched, the contact points are oxidised and there are obvious contact points where these batteries have been used. Waste of money and not happy.


Magical Music Device

This thing is the bomb. I have always wanted to play my hardcore porn on the subway so all my fellow straphangers could enjoy it with me and now my dream has become a reality. You're Welcome.


Love it

I upgraded my iphone 4 to the new iphone 5. I was used to the incase slider case and wanted something similar because it is slim and fits snugly on my iphone. To my surprise Splash really did a good job and the phone fits very nicely. It is slim fit as described in the descriptions and the nice rubber exterior makes it feel safe and adds a grip to my hand. What I really love the most is actually the custom fit screen protector. From past experiences it was difficult to find a perfect fitting screen protector that doesn't produce bubbles when putting a case over it. The screen protector provided fits perfectly and there were no bubbles at all.


Exactly what I wanted

I received my adorable case in the mail today. It looks just like the picture. It has a nice open space on the bottom so the charging and headphone ports are easily accessible. The volume and power buttons are covered by the case, but there are small, raised lines on the case to show where to push. The case is thick and a little bulky which makes it uncomfortable to hold for long periods of time.


Great case

extremely resilient case.  Better than otterbox in many ways.  However, lacks clip for belt which Otterbox has.Bit large so will not fit in any case on belt.I bought this for my four year old to use my phone and not break it.  Also, for being active.  I think it works extremely well for that.I received it relatively quickly and overall it was a good purchasing experience.


Great!

We ordered these for our new mythic's along with cases. The screen protectors fit perfectly and were shipped quickly, we got them 2 days before the estimated delivery date. (standard shipping) They went on as well as can be expected with very few air bubbles. They feel thick enough to protect the screen, and do not interfere with the touchscreen. Exactly what I was looking for!


Waste of money!

Don't Buy. Doesn't work and is a waste of your money. I read all the superficially inflated reviews and was hopeful but after careful research trying to make the product work have realized the positive reviews are almost certainly fake.


Amazing gadget

I have received the sidekick lx 2009 to UAE and it is amazing...surely unlocked my country's phone provider directly worked but the the 3G package didn't work at all...It can't connect to 3G... I am not sure if it is the unlock or there is something else missing.If anyone knows about my problem then inform me please.But other then that it is an amazing gadget... and other drawback for unlocked lx 2009 if battery fails on you thenall your data are LOST and not all of them can be saved into the Memory Card.


Works Well For My Needs - Recommended!

This "10in1" USB charger adapter allows me to keep just this one cable in my car (along with a charger that has a USB connector) to charge my iPods, cell phones (my wife and I take different connectors, both found on this cable), and bluetooth ear pieces. It even handles two devices at the same time, which is very convenient.The cables are not very long but does work with a USB extender cable and the adapter ends that we don't use are kept out of the way with "twist-ties" (from bread loafs). Also, while this can also be used to charge your devices from a PC USB port, it will not work as a data cable.This works well for my needs, recommended!CFH


Self-healing skin, this is awesome

The spray repairs the skin and is the secret to effectively applying and reapplying.  I removed the shield so I could do a warranty replacement of my phone (flash stopped working).  While removed, I placed it sticky-side up on a table.  Of course it ended up on the floor and picked up dog hair and dust.  When I got my replacement phone, I sprayed the sticky side of the shield and removed all the debris.  Sprayed it again and applied it to my phone.  Good as new and I cannot tell it's there, same as before.


I expected the best from Otterbox...

The case itself is very good - it fits well and makes the phone less slippery and protects it well.  I expected one of the best from Otterbox and the case is just that.But...  The holster/belt clip is huge and clunky (again what I expected from Otterbox - I kind of expected to knock one star off for that).  While I am impressed with how well the phone stays in the belt clip, there is one flaw that causes two different problems for me.  The belt clip does not clip solidly to my belt.  I've tried it around just the belt as well as around the belt and waist band of my jeans.  It is a pretty standard 1" wide belt, not a slim dress belt.  The first problem the loose belt clip causes is because the it moves around; I generally have two use two hands to get the phone out of the clip.  Second, the entire belt clip has come off several times!Overall, I think the Otterbox offers good protection, but I don't trust the whole belt clip won't come off my belt when outside playing with my boys or working around the house.


Love Boost, Hate this Phone

This phone is terrible. It freezes, lags, texting is a nightmare as its keyboard and autocorrect is nonresponsive, I do not receive calls or texts on time (while my friend who has boost and a different phone does not have this issue), and I would only give this phone to someone I hated.So if you hate yourself or you hate the person you are giving this to, then go for it.


Works fine for iPad 4

I see some reviewers have had trouble getting this to work with later iPads, but for me it works just fine.  Dual ports at 3.1A means rapid charging while traveling for my pad and my phone.  FWIW, I didn't use the Apple brand lightning cord, but the Amazon knockoff, and it still charged as well as the original charger.  I have not tried charging my iPad with the non Apple USB port, but then again, why the heck would I?UPDATE:  returned the unit.  2nd charge port was dead.  Found out during travel...not the best time.


great phone but ,,,,,

this is a great phone if i could get it to work with at&t gophone network and yes i have data plan . i even brang it to att store to see if they could get it to work but they couldnt . other than that its a great phone im lucky i have wifi at work and at home so not having 4g lte aint a big deal unless im using google maps. but i have rooted my device and im loving it . the sceen is the best feature i love the viewing angles and how nice the text is when im viewing web pages . battery life is also great. i charge it over night wake at 4am and finish work get home around 5pm and i have anywhere from 50-65 percent battery life left .


GREAT SELLER!!

My husband loves this item. I recommend this seller to anyone because he shipped the item fast and delivered us a great item (great description and looked even better then expected).


High quality case that looks and feels far more expensive than it is

I have never heard of Verus before, but I am very happy about their Thor case (charcoal black one) that I ordered before I even received by pre-ordered Galaxy s5. It fits the phone like a (well-made) glove. All materials used have a great texture to them. All four corners are especially re-enforced, which is very thoughtful, as impacting them is a common cause of major damage to smartphones. All the ports and features are easily accessible. The camera lens is very well protected too by raised borders, while the heartbeat sensor has an easy access super smooth "slide" (many S5 cases fail here). Great job, Verus!


It could be better...

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


NOT SOLID COLOR: SPARKLY/GLITTERY

It's a great quality case for a good price. That being said, all of the colors are GLITTERY and they don't appear to be in the picture. For me since I'm a girl it's okay but I ordered a red one for a guy & he doesn't want SPARKLES. Beware that there are sparkles on every color!!!!!


great headphones but ...

I recieved my headphones on last week. They worked fine, but i noticed that they were very bulky and a bit heavy around my neck for the job that i do so i had to send them back. This is my 3 rd pair that ive ordered but what i can say is that Amazon's refund policy is above 5 stars there is absolutely no hassle,


Where is my phone Amazon?

I ordered this phone a couple weeks ago with free 2 day shipping, I was very excited to get my new phone. It did not show up in 2 days  but after 3 days I got an email saying it would take another week. It has been a week and a half and I got a new email today saying it could take another month!This looks like a great phone but I couldn't really tell you cuz at this rate my phone may never get here.SUPER FRUSTRATING AMAZON! Boo!


Very nice case.

This case is very nice, at any price.  You will not be disappointed.  The smell some people have complained about goes away after a day or two.  Its just the smell leather gives off when wrapped.


Pleasantly Surprised.

I brought this for my boyfriend who uses Straight Talk. I also brought an AT&T; sim card from straight talk and followed the online instructions through his straight talk account online. Everything worked except the data and MMS. I tried several different tips and techniques and none of them worked. So after searching and trying different APN, I finally found one that worked.Straight Talk Android Setup AT&T; SIM "New" Settings *(Not on MMSC enter the information without the parenthesis as you would a web address.Name:  Straight Talk or NET10APN:  tfdataProxy:  Leave blankPort:  80MMSC: (http://mms-tf.net)*MMS Proxy: 66.209.11.33MMS Port: 80MCC:  310MNC:  410Authentication Type:  PAPAPN Type :  default,supl,mmsI used information from an article by  Dennis Bournique.The data is HSPA+ which is pretty fast. I played games, watched YouTube and Netflix with no problems.Pros:-Data works well-Beautiful Design looks expensive-Clear videos-Downloaded over 15 apps so far-Comes with silicon caseCons:-Camera is just ok. Not very good at night. I have an iphone 5 which is 8MP and the pictures from this phone do not measure up. They seem more like 5MP or less.-Lack of stronger cases available for purchase which is needed for those of us who frequently drop phones*Update*Phone still works great. Camera is decent in good lighting, but grainy in average lighting. I downloaded many more apps with no problem. Downloading an app without wifi sometimes takes a long time.


Google Navigation Response

This is in response to the fellow who said that because the phone can't be on data 3g at the same time as making a call that it might cause a problem if he was talking on his phone while using navigation.In reality you can use google navigation at the same time as making a call, its not an issue what-so-ever. What happens is google navigation runs in the background and has preloaded the maps it needs onto the built in storage or sd card. You will still hear the voice navigation when talking on the phone so you won't miss any turns but it does not prevent you from making a call as suggested. In fact it works very seemlessly and performs well. Once you hang up the phone it goes right back to navigation and never misses a beat. Its one of the nice features they built into google navigation and one of the reasons this phone (or any android phone running os 1.6 and above) and the android platform are worth their weight in gold.I have since sold my tomtom navigation unit and that in itself has paid for the price of the phone. The incredible is an amazing device and i would not hesitate for a minute to buy it again. Before this phone i had an eris and while that was nice it was just not quite enough for my needs. The incredible fills the void completely and offers me so much more. I rate this phone a perfect 100/100, i could not have designed it any better myself and there is not 1 thing about this phone i don't love.


My first and last bluetooth headset...

I'm new to bluetooth technology so I don't have a lot of experience with different headsets. I had to do a lot of research on the internet as it is near impossible to test these hands-on in stores. Thanks to Amazon for providing a medium for consumer reviews. My decision was influenced heavily by what others have written here and I can say they were dead-on in their reviews of this headset.Mine paired flawlessly with my Motorola E815 and have not had any connection problems at all. Volume and sound quality are great, although, if the surroundings get noisy, the mic tends to be a little over sensitive (maybe my noise cancelling feature isn't working properly). That aside, everything else is perfect including battery life and comfort. Wish Plantronics included a belt-clip case for it.


Just what I was looking for

I had an Otterbox Defender for my last android phone, and while it did an amazing job protecting the phone, the overall size increase was massive. Too much.When I purchased this Galaxy S3 I was considering the Otterbox Commuter but after watching a comparison video of the Commuter and the Tough I thought I'd give the Tough a try. It's excellent, very protective yet surprising thin for a two-piece case. The texture provides a pretty good grip without hanging up in your pocket, and the volume/power buttons are still easy to use.Highly recommended!


Best iphone 5 Case - Brilliant Design

I have tried three other iphone 5 flip cases and this is by far the best. I had the Case-Mate Black Signature Flip which is a decent case with an obvious flaw. The flap does not fold all the way back which caused typing with two hands to be virtually impossible. The other issue is that the case must be open in order to charge the phone. The second case was the SPIGEN SGP iPhone 5 Case Leather Flip [Argos]. That case was so poorly made that the flip cover detached from the main case. Very poorly made with cheap feeling leather. Like the former, the case must be open to charge the phone. Now to the Magia Leather Wallet. This case is just about perfect. The leather is high quality and nice to the touch. The flap can be folded behind the phone and held there by the magnetic tab, making texting and access to all functions easy. All buttons and ports are available even when the case is closed so that the phone is protected while charging. I was somewhat concerned that the camera may be difficult to use, but even here the case shines. The camera is actually easier to use because the flap can be used to hold the phone steady. I assume this was an unintended benefit. Finally and most surprisingly, the phone is held very securely in place by the double sided tape. There is no glue of any kind but millions of microscopic plungers. Google "Japanese Micro Suction Tape" for an explanation. Well worth the money.


Minnie :)

I'm in love with Minnie Mouse and this case was perfect. I think all silicon cases you get from here have that awkward smell when it comes in but after that first or second day it's gone. But the case isn't bulky or anything. I do get nervous with the ears might tear off but I doubt anytime soon. Overall I think this case its perfect & looks and fits great on my 4s


Good to bad

I liked the weight and feel of this stylus and quite enjoyed the experience of the mesh tip though at time (like when drawing) it was too large, overall though for about a month I treasured this and was quite careful to be mindful to have one with me at all times.I didn't find the pen especially useful (then I'm very particular about what I write with.)Major issue was the black paint on the stylus starting coming off and not just chipping but adhering to my fingers and thereby anything else I then touched. To add to this sticky nightmare both styli began leaking ink. What a mess (and thank heavens for screensavers!)Having read others reviews I may have ended up with a couple from a wayward batch though it's doubtful I ended up with the only two.


Great Phone, But Not Straighttalk Compatible

This phone seems to be a great product. I was just disappointed because I was under the impression that it could be used with Straighttalk.


charges my phone in my CRV

it works for my LG phone.  How can you go wrong for this price!!  buy it, dont buy it at verizon where it is $20 or at the shack where it was $28!!  this one doesnt say LG on it, but I use it every 3 days or so, and it works great.Hint, let your battery drain, or your batery will suck!!


Great hardware, okay software

----------------------------------------------------------------I purchased this phone to get away from the poor selection available through my carrier. I found that this phone offers the best touchscreen hardware available on the market, and a great USB, 3.5 etc. Perfect for my needs. I have used Windows Mobile before so I was aware of what I was getting into.I received the phone on time according to my shipping request, and it was intact and had everything included. Everything works great but- Windows Mobile can run inconsistently. Sometimes okay, sometimes badly for many reasons. Not just memory issues, but strange freezes and crashes, but only every once in a while. Can be corrected with custom softare. However the HD2 has the best Windows Mobile experience of any phone anywhere. This is IT for Micrsoft mobile until Windows Mobile 7.- Definitely need a case for this monolith of a phone/screen protector too.- Somewhat difficult to find software unless you know where to look. There is no app store for Windows Mobile worthy of mention. You must scoure the net to find the best ( GetyTV, Core Player, Slacker, Morphgear and MUCH more ) I found that I could come up with a match for ALMOST any App that Palm, Android or IOS provided... If I looked hard enough! Lots of footwork.- NOTE: If you know where to look you can upgrade software OS for the phone too with XDA Developers and other sites. There is even an Android upgrade in works, so you can get a better Windows Mobile experience or whole new Operating System entirely. This is The Big PLUS for this phone.- You can do this with other phones, but this Windows Mobile handset, like many others with the 6.1 - 6.5 software are VERY open source and easily modifiable- Also has a GREAT camera. It starts out poorly but with softare updates it can be upgraded to a higher capture quality and eliminate the "pink spot" too... has a macro lens for great close ups...All in all this phone has succeeced in getting me what I wanted. A great high end hardware handset, with a good software experience and open ended, so you can modify down the road somewhat easily. I enjoy this phone but primarily because I already know Windows and computers and Smartphones and how they work, very well. Without that knowledge, Im not sure I could enjoy this phone to its fullest extent.------------------------------------------------------------------


Works great with modified Galaxy S3

I bought this to use with a Galaxy S3 I modified with parts from a Palm Pixi touchstone back cover. I had my own micro USB wall charger so I simply plugged it in to the back of this Dock and as soon as I placed my Galaxy S3 on it, it immediately started charging. I love how it charges just as fast as when the phone is plugged in. I'm very tempted to buy one for my car since it works so well. I highly recommend it!


Satisfied Customer

I've had the Dock-N-Talk for almost a month now.  I disconnected my land line and now only have my cell phone in use with this Dock-N-Talk.  There are two things I wish it had.  First is the feature to show the caller id of the person calling, not "Dock-N-Talk".  If you can forward the call to my home phones, you should be able to tell  me who it is calling.  Second, when someone leaves a message, my home phone systems do not blink, as they use to when a message was left.  I have to rely on my cell phone to notify me of a voice message.  Aside from that, I am completely satisfied.  I'm saving money by having my land line disconnected and that makes me very happy.The Dock-N-Talk gives me the use of all phones in my house and that makes me feel safe, should some emergency arise and I am unable to get to my cell phone, which previously was carried in my purse.  Had I been upstairs and had chest pain and needed to call for help, I would have been out of luck.  This device eliminates that problem completely.I also like the Blue Tooth adapter.  Makes it very easy for disconnect and reconnection.  When I am out of the range, the Blue Tooth disconnects and my cell phone is operable again.  While connected to Blue Tooth, the cell phone is not operable to make a call.  You can check feature, see who is calling, address book, etc, but can't actually call anyone using the cell phone.  When I return home, the Blue Tooth reconnects and all calls transfer to my home phones.  Very easy, no cables to connect or disconnect when I'm leaving and taking my cell phone with me.Bought this DOCK-N-TALK about 5 months ago...just found out does not work with Security System...can't communicate.  So, if you want a security system to monitor your house, you still have to have a land line anyway.


Good things in a small package

I bought this phone, the black model, direct from Amazon for about $270 and have been getting used to it the past several weeks. It's my first Android smart phone, so I'm having to learn both the new handset and a new OS, after having used E-Series Nokia phones for many years.One of the things that drew me to this model was its hardware keyboard (in addition to the on-screen ones it offers in both portrait and landscape modes). With the Nokia E-Series Symbian models being discontinued, there aren't a great number of quality, high performing smartphone choices with hardware keyboards. But after doing a lot of research, I settled on this one, and thus far am glad I did.I'm a tall guy with large hands and long fingers, but the keyboard on the MiniPro works fine for me. The keys have a firm click-type (non-audible) touch and are nicely spaced and tactile. The slide out mechanism as others have noted is solid and firm, no jiggering or bending when the keyboard is extended.I too found the build quality to be quite good, notwithstanding the plastic case materials. Despite reading the comments in prior reviews here, I had no trouble snapping off the back of the phone to access the battery and SD card and SIM card slots. On my model at least, the back snaps on and off securely, but easily. I was never worried I was going to break anything trying.When closed, the size of the phone is surprisingly small in terms of height and width, but it is a bit chubbier than non-hardware-keyboard phones as you'd expect. But it feels good in the hand, is easy to hold and handle and doesn't feel slippery. That said, it easily fits inside a man's shirt or pants pocket.Even though it's not a dual core processor, the response of the phone is swift and smooth, no lagging or stuttering. The screen image quality is quite good, though at about 3 inches, you wouldn't want it any smaller. But I have ready access to desktop and laptop PCs most of the time, so I wasn't looking to carry around a large screen in my pocket.I do have a couple of gripes about the phone, though.--One is the design of the small plastic cover of the micro USB slot that's used for data connections and charging the phone. It's a small plastic piece that you have to pry open with your fingernail and pivot out from its resting place. Then once open, the little plastic piece just hangs loosely and dangling there attached by a very tiny connector. A sliding cover or some other approach would have been much better for an otherwise elegant phone. The way the little cover hangs there annoyingly, I almost want to cut it off and just leave the micro USB port uncovered.--Another is when I set up the phone, I followed the very minimal paperwork included in the box, and used common sense based on my familiarity with computers and smartphones. But when I tried to use the main camera on the phone, the images were all blurry, even after I cleaned the exterior lens surface with a soft camera lens cleaning cloth. So I ended up taking the phone into a Sony shop to have them take a look at that problem. And to my surprise, they said there had been a small (I assume protective) plastic film sheet covering the main camera lens. I swear, I never saw it, and didn't see any info about it on the phone's setup info. But once removed, the camera takes very nice photos for a 5 mp snapper with auto focus.Other misc things, the sound quality and loudness on calls and playing music etc. I found quite good. I liked the feature in the camera whereby you can focus and take a phone just by tapping anywhere on the view screen (apart from also having a physical camera shutter key). Also the accelerometer that automatically shifts the phone's display between portrait and landscape works smoothly and quickly.Add in full access to the Android Market, good video recording, FM radio included, a 2 GB memory card included, the included Flash video playing capability, WiFi N, and stereo Bluetooth, and Sony has packed a lot of powerful capabilities into this small package.It's not the slimmest or most elegant or highest specced Android smartphone on the market, but it's a great phone at a great price, especially if you're buying it out of your own pocket and not on a carrier contract discount, that pretty much can do anything you want to do for business/work or for personal entertainment.PS - Just as a quick follow-up, now Jan. 2013 and this phone is still going strong and performing well. Just last month got the Ice Cream Sandwich OS via download, and it seems to work OK with that, at least for me. Everything I said above in my original review I still hold to.One thing I managed to solve was the dangling micro-USB slot cover issue. Following another user's suggestion I read on one of the Sony forums, I took an Xacto knife and cut/shaved off a tiny portion of the interior part of the cover (the part that fits into the micro USB slot cover). I DIDN'T cut off the dangling cover itself. But after trimming the inside tab a bit, the cover now can be inserted and removed with my fingernail much easier, and no longer drives me crazy as it did when I first got the phone. Sony, unfortunately, just made the original cover fit a bit too snugly. But that's something any user can easily remedy.Lastly, having used the phone for more than a year now, I want to comment also on what a good camera it has for just a 5 MP model. As anyone familiar with such things knows, it's not automatically the case that a higher number of megapixels is going to mean better quality images. There are lots of mobile phones out there with 8+ MP camera, but read the reviews, and you'll see many, many produce noisy, artifacted, oddly shaded photos. After having had a year to compare my mobile phone's photos with those of friends and family members using other smart phones, I'd certainly say the MiniPro's photos are among the best quality that I've seen.


Junk

I did not notice all the Radio Interface Resource Shortage problems with this phone and right after I activated it, it started with that message and the texts won't go through or come in. I found a fix by either restarting the phone (sometimes that did not help) or updating the PRL like Virgin Mobile told me and that would help for a while then it would start acting up again. After 3 days of this crap I sent it back. My friend had a EVO from Sprint about a year ago and it had the same problem so she sent it back. It is a nice phone but this problem that has been around for quite some time now tells you the phone's operating system has flaws that look like they may never be fixed. Stay Away from this phone!!


Can someone save me

Ok i really need some help o really want this phone but i need to know how to side load apps can anyone teach me can i'm new to the world of smart phones and when i watch videos on youtube they never actually show you the steps they just say all this stuff that i don't understand can someone please help me would greatly appreciate it.My email is clintonnewman19@yahoo.com


DOES NOT WANT REAL REVIEWS!!!

I purchased a case from this company, really 4 all together.  I will not order another one from this company after my experience with them.  The Wolfe case that I received cracked the day after I got it.  I put a neutral review on the product after that because that was I felt.  I then received an email from the company asking me to remove the information because it hurts their business.  I explained to them I have bought three other cases and left good feed back since that is how I felt on those however not on this purchase.  I thought ok they understand and that is the end of it.  Then I get another email saying please remove the neutral feedback it hurts our business.  I sent an email back and said ok I have already sent you back one email with my explanation and if I really need to go leave feedback again it will be on this.  So here you go my neutral feedback has changed to negative and I will now make sure to never purchase from you again.


Great phone for the money

I use the Nokia 520 with straight talk, so my review only applies if you plan on using straight talk.  I purchased this phone after destroying my expensive HTC one X.1. The phone will do an online backup, but after a resetting the phone, you only have one chance after the first reboot to restore your phone.  The problem is that you have to use your phones data plan to do the restore and since you have to change the APN setting to use straight talk, you will not be able to do a restore.  If the phone isn't unlocked, then you will have to borrow a SIM card from someone with AT&t; so you can connect to the internet and download the restore.2. The restore doesn't remember how you have your tiles positioned.  A lot of time can be spent organizing tiles.3.  AT&T; has the internet sharing locked down on my phone.  I had the phone unlocked, but I still can't get rid of the AT&T; lock on internet sharing.4. I really like the windows phone operating system.  I will probably buy the new Nexus when it's released, but I'm not going to be in a big hurry.  If I could get internet sharing working, then I would have no good reason to not stay with a windows phone.5.  I get 4G data connections with straight talk.  The best I've seen from android in this price range is 3G.6.  Since the phone is so cheap, I don't worry about keeping it in a case.7.  The Nokia GPS with offline maps is great, and all you have to do is create your nokia account.8.  If you plug in headphones, then you can use the built in FM tuner in the phone.  The phone uses the headphone cord as the antenna.9. The camera is ok, but there is no flash.10.  The battery is removable.  I'm always annoyed by devices that don't make it easy to replace a battery.  I know most cell phones will be outdated by the time the battery dies, but I just like knowing that I can change the battery if I want to.11.  The phone accepts micro SD cards.  I like having expandable / removable memory cards on my devices.


Terrible

I got the phone case in the mail today and it was all bent and doesn't even fit on my phone ! Glad I practically threw my money away


Disappointed

Received the phone yesterday as a replacement for my bulkier Samsung Note 2. Was immediately disappointed.1) Screen colors look pale. Definitely paler than Note 2.2) When played music sound was inferior. I compared them back to back, playing exact same song, on exact same setting. Note 2 sounds noticeably better.3) Pictures taken with this camera definitely inferior to Note 2. It may also be 8 MB, but it is not the same 8 MB.4) Had weird issue with SD card. Unmounted my SanDisc 64 GB card from Note 2 and inserted into S4 Mini. No problem at first, card recognized and worked fine. After I turned off the phone and turned it on again message "SD card removed" appeared, followed by "SD card unexpectedly removed". Phone either saw the card but did not see any files on the card, or did not see the card at all. Tried to re-incert the card - worked well for a while, but once I turned off and on the phone again same thing happened. When the card was back in Note 2 it had not problem, which can only mean one thing - problem is with S4 mini.I can see here the description states that SD card up to 32 GB is OK, but the manual says that it should be able to take cards up to 64 GB. I considered buying another card, but decided not to take a chance. Given overall poor performance I have decided to return the phone and get S4. For 200 dollars extra you get the best phone on the market, superior in every aspect.The only good thing - it is, indeed, amazingly light and small. Applications run smoothly. I guess if it was the only thing that mattered I would have kept it.


not what it is advertised to be

When you see the photo on line it looks like a case to hold the phone, but it is actually a sticker set and a tube of glue to stick it to the phone.  I am looking to get  refund.


Ripoff

One has to purchase the glass AND the digitizer bonded to it together as an assembled unit. A newbie like me would have no way of knowing that. Selling just the glass alone is a ripoff. Now I need to buy a new one with the digitizer. These folks have knowingly wasted my time and money.


Where is my 3800 mAh? (Edit: Oh. there it is)

EDIT:Alright so I used it for some time, and I was probably wrong about the battery.At first I was disappointed that I was not getting the huge battery life that people reported, such as the people that talk about getting 48 hours of battery life, since under my usage I can drain the battery in a hot flash in like 1 hour, and as of now I apparently average 7-8 hours of battery life.But I concluded that it was because I was running programs like The World of Magic, and it eats the battery like no other and can not be compared to texting and checking mail.I probably jumped to conclusions too fast when the battery estimator showed 2300 mAhThe estimate currently is 3797 mAh +/-19%I can probably now safely say that I got exactly what was advertised.And though not as amazing as I thought, it is exactly what this battery is supposed to be capable of. For all I know.----------------After about 4 complete uninterrupted charges and discharges, I am also getting an battery estimate near 2300 mAh.I don't care that the price is low (the reason it gets 2 stars instead of 1 haha.) The product has nowhere near the advertised capacity, and that is just WRONG...If it has to with that irritatingly persistent excuse of training the battery right, This product is a Li-ion battery and I do not believe they can gain capacity by cycling. Li batteries can only lose their capacity over the months or years.I also read that full charges and full drains are actually not good for Li batteries.My battery cap is fine and works properly, and did not break, and will probably stay that way as long as you are careful.It is kinda ugly. Not good if your reason for accepting the appearance is for the doubled battery life. Because your battery life is only going to increase a little.I may return to comment if I have news, but as for the time being,know that this product is basically an over-sized 2200-2400 mAh battery.


Low rating only to warn buyers

This is actually a great item. If you're reading this, I give it 5 stars. The CD slot is ideal for not attaching to the windshield, since I've have those mounts come loose and fall onto the dash while I'm driving. Also, some states have restrictions on mounting things to the windshield that can hinder visibility. This works great for keeping my device out of the way, but also near the radio/dash, where hand placement is natural if you're use to interacting with your radio/dash a lot. Under driving vibration the mount is sturdy without any shaking.Sorry about the low rating, but this review is just to warn any potential buyer (whose wise enough to search low rated reviews. which are easier to sift through than good ratings) to avoid AMZN's 3rd party sellers. I got mine and it was a knockoff even though images displayed were of the genuine product. Shame on me for trying to save a few dollars, but shame on AMZN for not vetting out these counterfeiters. I now only buy from known 3rd party sellers or if I know what I'm getting is intended to be a generic (i.e. not advertised as brand name).


Fails at everything it must succeed at.

To the people that are rating down my review I'd really like to know whether you're Nokia plants or if there's just something wrong with you. I'm trying to save you from buying a terrible sounding and uncomfortable product and you're trying to rate my review down. What's the sense in that? Do what you want though. It's your choice.If you want to try another product I suggest theMotorola S305 Bluetooth Stereo Headset (Black). It's very close in sound quality to theSennheiser PMX60 Headphonesand it's comfortable in terms of weight. I'll write a review on it shortly but look at the other reviews for now and you can see the difference.----------------Original Review:I really wanted to love these. There are so many glaring problems though.My setup was this and an iPhone 3G with 3.0 as my OS.Sound:I don't consider myself an audiophile. I do happen to have near perfect pitch, but seriously, you would have to be either deaf or paid to write the reviews (that's right, I'm calling out everyone below who says the sound is acceptable) to not notice the horrendous, continuous tinny sound. Note that my MP3s are 256kbps VBR or CBR from Amazon and I didn't have the volume up high!Here's the song list I made it through before I wanted to chuck these things out the window:- I'm Shipping Up To Boston by the Dropkick Murphys (this one sounded especially horrendous)- The Distance by Cake- Nugget by Cake- I Will Survive by Cake- The Underdog by Spoon- Going Missing by Maximo Park- A Praise Chorus by Jimmy Eat World- Doot Da Doot by The Unlovables (this one also sounded especially horrendous)I was actually using these in the gym with a ton of background noise and distractions and I could not ignore the tinny sound.0 out of 5 (Seriously, you can stop reading now; go find something else. I'll probably try the S305 from Motorola next.)Comfort:These things are way too heavy. I kid you not when I say that two hours after using them I realized I had actually strained my neck. The weight is the sole reason these things are uncomfortable.0 out of 5Construction:Conversely because they are so heavy I feel like I could pistol whip a brick wall with these and the only thing that would happen would be some minor scuffing.5 out of 5Controls:These are one of the few things that Nokia did correctly. They're easy to use and well placed.5 out of 5Connectivity:No problems here in my short trial.5 out of 5.You know what? I could go on about the other features but lets think about it. If the headphones sound terrible and are uncomfortable than does anything else matter? In my opinion, the answer is no.Overall: 2 out of 5.


The charger has issues

It works well recharging my Iphone 5 but it has a metal case thats make my receiption very bad. I can not talk on my phone with the charger on because I loose my signal.


INSTRUCTION MANUAL

BEWARE.You get a Portuguese manual with this phone. i.e Totally useless unless you are multi lingual in Portuguese!!Very poor Amazon and this is after they so called claimed to inspect the productRUBBISH...New Unlocked LG GX500 Dual Sim Phone in Black with wi-fi, 3.2MP Camera, MP3 Player, Integrated SNS, and 3 inch WQVGA Display- International version


Great

Very durable quality.  Works great with bot iPad and iPhone 4.  Pleased with purchase.  May buy some more. You will be satisfied.


You get what you pay for

I gave 3 stars because I got what I paid for basically. It's not the worse case ever but it's not great either. I don't have the issues of lag on the touch screen (works just fine for me) and it fits my phone just fine fortunately I haven't had any water issues, but who knows later on. And the case makes the speakers a bit muffled. It's very clearly not an actual lifeproof case but I knew this before I purchased it. I just figured they both had similar reviews might as well spend 60 bucks lessI must warn you also you, you WILL NOT be able to adjust your volume switch up or down. So before you put the case on pick which one you prefer. Another issue was shipment although it arrived fast it was wrapped very haphazardly.In all if I could go back I wouldn't purchase it, but I'm not wasting time and energy on a refund. I can live with it.


Very happy but just a few gripes

The shipping was as expected and the case looks great. The sleep/wake function is really cool and a great power saver. There's a misunderstanding that you can't do anything with the viewfinder portion of the screen; you can answer/decline/hang up a phone call. If you want your case to look brand new for a good while, get a dark color. I bought a pink one and I've got blue stains from my jeans. All in all I'm pleased with my purchase.


love it

this is the best phone case yet to date that I have bought that has not fallen apart in the first few days. protects phone very well


Alright

Not too bad. Phone OS could really use a nice touch up, however. Calls unforutnately sound distorted and hard to hear, however. Phone can scratch easily on the back case. It works when you need it, and that's honestly it. Nothing fancy like an iPhone or Andriod phones. Games are very basic.Overall not a bad buy.


Verso Trends Darwin Croc Case for kindle Fire HD 7", Red

The case is very attractive and does protect the Kindle but it would be better if it had some type of a closure on it.


Not happy with my Nokia-BH905 Bluetooth head-phones

I had problems with these head-phones when I first upgraded to the iPhone 4 but after iOS updates they worked better and work with my iPhone 5. Irritatingly though they often drop the BlueTooth connection and have to be re-connected or sometimes re-set.Old Review from 2010:I bought the Nokia-BH905 Bluetooth head-phones about 6-9 months ago. Very disappointed with them. The sound quality is poor. I was able to pair them with my desktop computer but they don't seem to work very well with my iPhone 4. I did manage to get them to work with an iPhone 3GS when I first got them but with the iPhone 4 they seem to freeze up and need re-setting all the time. Even after resetting, I can't get them to play music using the iPod music player reliably (they very rarely work) even though my iPhone 4 says there is a connection. Perhaps I have a lemon but for such expensive head-phones, I expected them at least to work!


good product

iPhone fits in the case well.  The case provides good protection for the iPhone.  Some other horizontal hip cases have open corners and I was concerned I'd bump into something like a desk and scratch up the phone.  This model keep phone mostly secure.  The velcro fastener doesn't bother me.  I chose velcro because some reports are floating around that the magnetic latches may interfere with the signal.


Awesome!

I was worried that this cord wouldn't charge my Ipad, but it charges all of my Apple products!  Love being able to lie in the bed and still use my low battery phone and Ipad.


Inexpensive but not cheap!

We have an older car with a tape deck. We also have an i-Pod.  We own and have used the FM transmitter type adapter for the i-Pod, but the sound quality is not better than your average FM station.  We've tried other tape adapters for the i-Pod (Sony, Phillips, Monster Cable), but these were not satisfactory in the end (the Sony kept flipping tape sides, the Phillips did a bit less so, and the Monster had a muddy sound).  We just bought the Coby, and the sound and operation thus far excel well beyond all the other brands we've tried. The sound is great and the price cannot be beat.


my friends are jealous!!

Was worried about how cheap the price was. Got the phone. Put in my sim card. Wow. It fired right up. You can also adjust the font size.. no more squinting.. my friends are paying top dollar for the same thing. I got 2 batteries, charger, battery cover , case and instructions.  Very easy to set up. I am very pleased.


Hard Skin Case

Perfect fit and protects the phone very well. Very easy to install and have had no problems with it shifting or poping off, as som cases do.


NOT HAPPY WITH PRODUCT

i didnt like this product due to I cant charge the head phone with out usb cable n it also didn't come with manual


Great Concept, Not so easy to Use

I love the idea of using solar power to charge phones on the go, which is why I purchased this product. The initial battery life it came with, lasted me for 2-3 days, which was quite impressive. I'm giving it 3 stars because developers could have made it easier to re-charge. I read the instructions it came with, but they weren't so clear. Every time I tried to charge it, the lights showed it was "charging" but as soon as I restarted it, it died as if I had never charged it to begin with. It's a fantastic concept that should be employed more, however, the product needs more tweaking before I suggest anyone to invest.


Amazing for the price

I've been dwelling the past few weeks trying to decide if I should just spring for a GS3 or a Nexus 4 but the problem is that I really only use my smartphones for light app usage (reddit mostly), occasionally pictures and email. I really liked ICS and swype on my old GS2 Skyrocket but the phone died on me. I purchased this phone with hesitation but having upgrading from an older 2.3 Android phone this phone is a vast improvement. It is certainly a little buggier and a little slower than my old GS2 Skyrocket but it's not significant enough considering the price difference. This phone is perfect for what I want to do on a smartphone and work great on At&t.; I would definitely recommend this product for anyone looking for a budget Android phone. Going with Gingerbead instead of Ice Cream Sandwich is really not worth it. Also I would recommend a 32gb Micro sd card. Additionally I had read somewhere that this phone has two 500mhz cores instead of 1ghz cores. I can confirm it has 2 1ghz cores but the RAM is actually 384mb and 512mb which is fine for most people. Games like GTA3 and Minecraft work pretty well surprisingly.Edit: One thing I've noticed about this phone in reference to the freezing and crashing issues, is that it likes to be restarted about once a week. This used to happen on my Galaxy S 2 Skyrocket and iPhone 4 and a simple restart would generally clear up crashing and Force Closes on applications. This probably has something to do with the memory getting full or applications staying up and such but I've found that a once a week restart is always beneficial when using a smartphone.


DON"T BOTHER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

These are not the real deal! These batteries are not manufactured for use with Samsung Galaxy S2 phones as all SGS2 phones require "Near Field Communication" in order to properly communicate with the phone.The GS2 requires NFC batteries for proper communication with the phone. This sellers batteries are aftermarket garbage and wont hold a decent charge.Not worth to have as a backup as it might cause damage to the phone...this was what the Samsung reps told me when I called. No reason to take a chance and damage your device.This is not an ORIGINAL SAMSUNG PRODUCT! Verified by calling Samsung.All Samsung Galaxy S2 batteries were and are manufactured with NFC chips built in.This battery does not have the required NFC chip nor does it arrive with the "Near Field Communication" imprint on it as pictured. MISLEADING!Do yourself a favor and spend more on original equipment(yes it's considerably more expensive on Samsung's website @ $40.00). But original is original and is backed by Samsung in the event something should go wrong because of the battery installed.Pain in the rear to have to send it back, but Amazon did provide a paid shipping label and will provide a complete refund.Here is the kicker...before I finished writting this review I called my service provider after almost ordering the $40 battery on Samsung's site, and told them that my original battery wasn't holding charge the way it used to. They were happy to send me a replacement battery free of charge. No questions asked!Can't speak for all providers, but my provider mentioned that even if the phone was past warranty period, they would still replace the battery free of charge. NICE!! Hope this helps!!If I'm not mistaken all providers have their own 1 year warranty against defects etc., and should replace your phones original accessories including battery, back battery cover and earbuds.everything your phone came with when you purchased it is covered by a one year warranty with your carrier.call your carrier regardless of who they are and speak with the warranty dept., tell them that your battery isnt keeping charge anymore...you have nothing to lose.I called mine, they confirmed the phone model I had in order to send me the proper battery for my specific phone and sent me one that arrived in two days, sweeeet! (this is my personal experience and others may vary)


Wrong information

You do not need to sign up for ATT's sevice plan in order to purchase this netbook.  This is just wrong information, plain and simple.  If you want to take advantage of ATT's high speed mobile service, you can purchase it separately and this netbook can then work at the higher speed.  Otherwise, you're just limited to wired (10/100) and wireless (54g) broadband and WI-FI service.


Good product

Easy to use, straight forward and versatile. Product description is accurate. Would recommend it! Fully charges cell phone at least twice. Works for phone, iPad, camera.


Don't Buy This!

I bought this case after reading other reviews.After only a few weeks of wearing the case on my belt, the end leather on the end of the clip wore off and the clip created deep gouges in my belt when I put it on. After I discovered this, I removed the clip and wore the case by sliding my belt through the loops on it. After another couple of weeks, the loops started wearing and revealed that they are not leather, in fact, they are plastic.Finally, after discovering the poor quality of the loops, I took a closer look at the case and discovered that it is either not leather or is extremely poor quality leather laminated to something else.


Totally Worthless Product!!!

Within the first day after receiving the cell-phone holster, it fell apart. I was wearing the holster on my belt at my left side. As I was getting out of the car, the holster pressed against the seat cushion and the belt clip completely broke apart.  What a waste of money!!!  I will never buy anything like it on line again.  Some things simply must be seen and handled before one decides whether to buy them.


Nokia's engineers deliver on a 5 star product

Having grown tired of sharing an iPad with my 3 year old, decided to get an adult tablet. No more goofy icons, or cartoon characters. Yay!  The device comes preinstalled with Office 2013. Since I use Outlook and Word (a lot), this was a requirement. I prefer the Nokia over Microsoft's tablets.  Someone at Nokia spent just a little bit more time on the design. I really like the form factor.Took it on a couple of trips with me. Sure beats not having to pull out the laptop to check hotel address info. OneNote syncs with my 928, so when I don't have the tablet on me, the phone does the trick. Of course typing on the tablet is more convenient, as well as browsing the web as opposed to the phone.The camera takes spectacular videos and pictures. As a matter of fact, I was tickled pink of the camera panorama mode. As you move the tablet from side to side, the image changes to reveal the panorama view. It's awesome!Buy one for yourself, and one for your SO! They'll love it.


Not correct for Droid X (version 1)

I'm sure the battery is fine if you have a Droid X 2 (second generation).  However, I have a Droid X 1 (first generation) and it did not work.  I wish that Verizon Wireless OR Amazon's description would mention this fact.


NONONO

Blue Parritt devices are NOT compatible with android the phone system. I have nothing but trouble since I bought the Droid Phone.


Product was what it says it was, extremely slow to arrive

I ordered this product on Dec. 4th. It did not arrive until Dec. 21st. What was delivered is what they showed to be delivered. It was very easy to install, now to let it dry for a few days and see if it goes totally clear for me.I am only rating this product with three stars. This is due to the poor customer service by Skinomi and not based on the product I received. I just got, have to see how it performs. In the 17 days it took to receive my product, Skinomi only contacted me one time to let me know it shipped. This was a little frustrating as nothing should take that long to get from CA to CO.I hope the product performs like the videos on the site show it to perform.


An AWESOME BASIC Phone

I agree with Jon's review. I'm glad i was NOT swayed by the negative reviews.I bought phone from my cell phone carrier. I wanted the touch screen experience W/O the smartphone monthly cost...This is my basic cell phone used for calls and texting. AWESOME.And I am not on it all day through out the day...LOL...There are enough positive comments so i will not repeat them.It's a GREAT phone for those looking for a basic phone and the touch screen experience without the smartphone monthly cost. [Completely Satisfied]:-)


The gift I didn't know I needed

This cell phone mount was given to me by a friend who saw that I usemy phone a lot for my GPS app. I just moved to California a few years agoand don't know my way around and having to look down all the timefor the directions was just getting frustrating. When my friend handed me this cell phone car holder it was like a huge problem had been solved for me that I didn't know I was living with.It was easy to install and grateful to my friend for the gift.


OMG DONT BUY THIS PHONE

Its inexpensive, nice looking, large screen, well there you have it. All the good. Thats it. If you don't mind a phone that is constantly lagging and constantly freezing than this is the phone for you. Personally, I am so frustrated. I am sorry I purchased this phone. Sometimes two to three times a day it freezes. Take out the battery, put it back in. Not my idea of a quality product. Im ready for an iphone.


Works

After having made some rfid wallets myself, I must say, this item blocks rfid just as well or better than home made products, and is a lot less work.  Husband tested it at his place of business (which requires rfid id), and it works just fine.  The documentation *does* say that wallet should be replaced periodically (sounds like mylar or maybe crinkly aluminum foil inside,) but so does any wallet you make yourself.  Any metal fatigues and breaks eventually (along the crack where the wallet folds,) and needs to be replaced.  And this is cheap enough that replacing it every six months to a year should not be a problem.


undeliverable

Ordered the bluecell pack of stylus' for the kindle fire.  The notice says package undeliverable.  We have gotten about 5 pkgs. in the last 2 weeks with no problem.  Why was this one not delivered.  The address is correct.Thanks you


Love it if you only need to charge one item

The Apple Charger insert works, but the Non-apple does not.  Love the bright color, keeps me from forgetting it at the hotel.  Just wish I could charge 2 things at a time.


My first bluetooth headset.  Satisfied but not thrilled.

Positive aspects:1.  very comfortable.  I got this because of the earpiece that fits in my ear instead of the typical outside-the-ear speaker.  I can wear this thing without worrying about if falling off and the volume can be set quite high.2.  Works well with my Macbook Pro.  It was easily recognised by the OS and  the output/input could easily be set in the control pannel.3.  Range was quite good when using with my laptop.  I could walk 20 feet away and still have a clear signal.  Things started getting a bit spotty any further than that.I would probably recommend this... it's probably the best you'll get for the price.Negative* Aspects1.  I wish the audio quality were better.  I felt the sound was around 32.000 kHz.  I was hoping it would be a bit higher... more like a normal 20-22,000 headphone range.  It is significantly less.  I don't have trouble understanding anyone... but it certainly sounds worse than my phone's built-in earpiece.2.  I found it started behaving erratically after about 4-5 hours.  It didn't give me a low battery signal but it still would randomly turn off.  maybe the battery just needs to run a few cycles.*this could be the nature of bluetooth audio


Sweet phone, even though its not a 4G network

This phone can really kick some serious tail. I own the original Droid X. Now my wife, who just renewed the contract with Verizon has the Droid X2. Or actually I did. Since all three lines in my family are in my name. Anyway, her line was ready up for renewal and at first we tried the Droid Incredible 2 from HTC. Bad mistake. Horrible UI, and the phone had too many bugs in it. Taken the Droid Incredible 2 back to Verizon and paid $35 bucks for re-stocking fee, I was able to get my wife the Droid X2. She loves it. And its making me jealous. There is a huge difference between Droid X and Droid X2, and you can tell from the screen, colors, and the faster processor. The phone is very well worth it, if you wish to continue on the 3G network. For some apparently reason, Motorola didnt make their flagship phone a 4G. The red camera button on the lower right is now removed. Everything else would look the same as the original.In the box you get:(1) Droid X2 phone w/ battery cover(1) 8 GB micro SD Card pre-installed(1) battery(1) micro usb to usb cable with wall charger adapterInstruction manuals, quick start, noticesSpecificationsDimensionsDimensions: 2.58(w) x 5.02(h) x .39(d) inchesWeight: 5.47ozOperating SystemAndroid 2.2 (Froyo) OS with Motorola Application PlatformDisplay4.3" qHD touch screen960 x 540 displaySupports up to 16M colorsdual-layer anti-reflective coatingscratch-and impact-resistantKeyboardTouch screen Virtual QWERTY KeyboardBatteryBattery: 1540 mAH Li-IonUsage Time -up to 480 Min ORStandby Time -up to 220 HoursSAR: Head: 0.74W/kg;Body: 1.5 W/kgMemory / ProcessorNvidia Tegra2 Dual Core 1Ghz processor8GB Internal memory for emails, texts, and apps8GB pre-installed microSD card for music, videos, and pictures (expandable to 32GB)


Black Deluxe Hard Case Cover with Chrome Stand Rubberized Clip for Apple Iphone 4 and 4s(fits At&t, Sprint and Verizon Iphone 4

Delivery service great as always ... Product description is pretty much as described however, adding my 2 cent... Here we go well, I ordered the black model ..arrived reviewed all pieces and cleaned my iPhone and began to put it together, very easy BTW.The plastic is unique it's soft yet durable and it snapped together quickly... The only problem I have notice is with the headphone jack..??..The headset jack only supports iPhone headsets which I think is ridiculous because it should fit any headset plugged into it... Shortfall is with the case it limits your headset choices.I bought the case cover for the kick stand which is functional but its not good quality it not metal its chrome pastic. Bottom line it stands when I want it to it looks great and the case window on the back shows the apple logo... Overall very satisfied with the Money spent... Thanks


It does its job

Overall the holder does its job but it has some significant drawbacks and since it would have cost as much to send back to the refund I would have received I am keeping it and making it work as best as I can.The Good:1) It is stout. I have little fear of it breaking short of running it over with the car.2) Lots of adjustments. There are three different adjustment points on the holder that let you aim it exactly where you want. The phone holder also rotates 360* when attached to the arm, quite nice.3) Holding mechanism. It has a release button that is spring loaded. Then you insert your phone and press the 'jaws' together. There is thick foam on either jaw that firmly holds the phone with little chance of damage.4) Big suction cup with a level to lock it into place. I like the suction cup attachment, it is very secure and I have little fear that it will fall off my windshield.The bad:1) The holder comes in two pieces the suction cup/arm piece and the phone holder. To attach them you insert 4 little tabs and slide to 'lock' it in. The problem is, it does not lock in at all and the parts are very loose to each other. The first time I put it in the car, I closed the door and the phone cradle fell off. It would not take much of a turn or bump to make the cradle fall off the arm. So my fix was to super glue the cradle and the arm piece together. I did not lose any functionality but I really should not have had to do this.2) It's BIG. This thing is rather large and it could easily get in the way. While the bulk adds to its stoutness which I gave as a pro, it could get in the way too much for many.3) Rattle Rattle: Well, this is the biggest con to me so far because I took care of con 1 and I can deal with con 2 but this one I have not been able to fix. It rattles quite loudly over every bump I go over and its quite annoying.I have this in my Sky so it has a rather rigid suspension so the rattles may not be as bad as in more family oriented vehicles.


The Truth about Flashed Phones

For all of you deciding whether or not to go through with this let me tell you about my experience. First an Evo and a good portion of android phones can be flashed to work with boost mobile ie Samsung nexus, evo 3d, evo shift, galaxy nexus, galaxy s2, etc.1) Although it is possible to do it is not an activity permitted by Boost Mobile so don't ask for their help if you run into trouble using the phone after it is flashed.2) The flashing process works like this: First you need a boost mobile phone that works on the Boost CDMA network. Most flashers tell you to get a sanyo incognito because it works the best. This is the phone that will be on file when you call boost mobile. The flasher will provide in imei and all other relevant info for the sanyo incoginito phone while then cloning this info over to the phone that is being flashed ie HTC Evo. Once that process is complete you will be able to use the EVO or any other android phone on the boost mobile network. Calls, text, MMS, web will all work.3) I have had this done, I switched from the blackberry $60.00 a month plan w/shrinkage. When I switched over the price drops instantly and carries over any shrinkage you may have already accrued. This dropped me down to $45 a month. I've had it for over a year now so I now only pay $35.00 a month.4) Positives about it: You can use the functions of a great phone, better than you can buy from boost, unlimited 3g. Negatives include: you can't call boost for troubleshooting if something goes wrong (you'd have to go back to the flasher); no native voicemail notifier (you will receive voicemails but unless you periodically call your voicemail # you won't know. Although you can download an app to do so (voicemail notifier, google voicemail notifier.apk) and my wifi tethering doesn't really work although I have seen it work for other people (check youtube videos).5) My advice is to buy one not flashed, by the donor phone and pay someone to flash it locally. FYI if the donor phone is turned on at the same time your new EVO is on both phones ring and can be answered so they suggest to keep the donor phone off at all times. (Remember the phone your using is just a clone). If you buy it flashed already when you have to change over the EVO to your phone number you will still have to have it programmed so it works with your phone number and for those that aren't technically savy like me its worth it to let someone with experience do everything start to finish, complete turnkey. The flash should cost no more depending on the phone between $40 - $70 depending on the type of phone and then it just the cost of the phones, used sanyo = $50 or less and then the phone you want to use.Good Luck!FYI - I totally recommend flashing your phone I would do it again but just a heads up 5/31 you will be able to buy a boost branded EVO that will run at 4g speeds up to 2.5GB and use all the EVO features. After 2.5GB you will be slowed down till next month. If you flash you only get 3g speeds but its truly unlimited.


Perfect Fit

The jelly skin case cover is a perfect fit for my Samsung Galaxy Notebook 10.1.  It was easy to put the cover on my notebook and I love the color!  The openings on the jelly skin are perfectly situated to allow easy access to charge connection, stylus and ear buds. The cost is very reasonable and I have nothing negative to say about this product.


Not for Impression

I ordered this case for the Samsung Impression.  It was way too small! I can't use it.  I gave it two stars because it is a nice case, but not for the Impression.


auto adjusting volume is bad news

it doesn't say it anywhere that I saw, but this earpiece has an auto adjusting volume control on it.  If the person you are talking to is silent for too long, it starts picking up background noise and then thinks its what I want to hear and raises the volume.  Then when the person you are talking to says something, it just blows your eardrum out before the volume goes back down to what you had it set at.  Definately a very bad feature.Also, voice commands just do not work, plain and simple.  No matter what I say, all it does is respond with is something along the lines of "are you sure you want to power off".  Nothing at all like my old bottom end motorola that worked perfectly for years.
