Continues to be a great smartphone!

UPDATE NUMBER 2 :DEven happier with this phone now than I was before!  I have gotten used to using it and it is like second nature.  The little touchpad is a life saver.  (Discussed below...) A few other things I have noticed are:1. that the phone is narrow enough to easily reach all areas of the screen with your thumb while holding the phone normally.  On my old phone you had to either use two hands or wallow the phone around in your hand to get your thumb on everything.  Though the screen is physically smaller on the Backflip, it is much easier to use and navigate on.2. The phone and screen are very durable.  Mine survived a serious drop of about 10 feet while I was on a ladder.  (Yeah yeah.  I know.  I shouldn't have been using my phone while climbing on a ladder.)  Anyway, I dropped the phone onto concrete.  The plastic was scuffed up a bit but has had no detrimental effect on the phone.3. I can play YouTube videos.  Evidently iPhone (or the Safari browser) cannot.So after 6 months I can say I am still very very happy with the Backflip.  I will post another update once the Android software update rolls out.UPDATE :)I have now had the phone a few months and can still say that I am as pleased with this phone as I have been with anything I have ever bought.  It has turned out to be a great smartphone.  The apps store may have something to do with that.  You can download video players, office tools, games, etc...  Even some pretty decent E6B flight calculators!  There are a couple of apps I suggest you download right off the bat.  The first is Advanced Task Killer from Rechild, or another tool to manage apps.  The apps killer lets you shut down apps without having to go to each one and close it down individually.  While multi-tasking is great, you can end up with quite a few apps running in the background.  Advanced Task Killer lets you manage them more efficiently than you would using the default tools.  A good file manager also helps.  OI File is a good one.  Another good app is Save MMS, which lets you save photos attached to messages.  There are also a number of good games and music players.  Many of them very inexpensive or even free!  Anyway, I liked the phone before, and I like it even better now.  The only thing I can think of that needs improvement, is the voice dialing, (mentioned below).Original review:I have to admit that this phone took a bit of getting used to.  I have had it now about a month and couldn't be happier.  My previous smart phone worked great as a phone and to text, but sucked at everything else. Anyway, the AT&T; sales agent said this phone was targeted at the "online generation" with a lot of features for Facebook, twitter, email, etc.  And it has all that.  Motoblur is not just ad hype.  It syncs it all.  But not only is the Backflip great for all that stuff, it is a very capable business phone as well.  It has completely replaced my old phone and my iPaq.  And works better than both.Anyway, here is my rating system.  Great :D  Good :)  Average :|  Poor :/  Bad :(WEIGHT AND DURABILITY :)The phone is fairly lightweight.  Heavier than some other phones, but still easy enough to carry.  It feels very well built and solid.  Does not have that flimsy feel some other phones have.  Nice and narrow.  Fairly thin but a little thicker than some other texting phones.BATTERY LIFE :)Normally, I can go two days before charging.  If I turn on the WiFi while at work, then I have to charge every night.  I have never needed to charge the battery during the day.  Motorola does not include a car charger, but it accepts micro-USB chargers which can be found inexpensively just about anywhere.OS and SYNCING :)The Backflip runs on Android.  Completely different than Windows Mobile.  It doesn't have anything like Windows ActiveSync, but you can use Google sync. After a little work I installed Google sync which works very well.  Syncing occurs over the air so no cables to plug in.  I also like being able to attach the phone as a USB storage device.  When you plug your phone into a USB port you can choose to attach as USB or charge only.  It disconnects the SIM card when used as a USB but it has come in handy a couple of times.  The SIM automatically restarts when you unplug the USB cable.  You have to buy AT&T;'s data plan, but the phone is WiFi capable, which speeds up internet browsing experience.STORAGE:  The phone accepts microSD cards.  Mine came with a 2GB card included.POWER ON AND SCREEN LOCK :)The screen lock function is simple and works one handed.  Press the power button, then tap on the unlock area.  If you choose a security code, that also can be entered one handed as the numbers are large and easy to tap on.  Unfolding the phone also turns it on.PHONE :DLeave it folded and it works like most other touch screen phones.  Apps come up on the screen and you tap to activate.  Tapping the phone icon brings up a very simple and easy to use dialer.  One handed phone use is the norm.  This phone is made for thumb dialing.  The narrow size and large numbers make it very easy to use.  On this screen you can also select recent calls, speed dial, or frequently called numbers.  Sound quality is superb and as a speaker phone it ranks with the best.  The volume can be turned up very high.  (Sound gets a little gravely at full volume but still good.)  I have not had any dropped calls.  I have seen a lot of complaints about AT&T;'s network but I can't say I have ever had a problem. So I don't know if this is something specific to the phone or the network.  Anyway, I have not had a problem.TEXTING and KEYBOARD :DUnfold the keyboard and it makes a great texting phone.  With my previous phone I found having a real keyboard, (no matter how small) dramatically increases the usability of texting.  At least for me. You can develop a feel for where letters and numbers are that I just never got with the touchscreen keyboards.  The only complaint I have is that the numbers are tucked up against the top and you have to be very deliberate when pressing them.  Still this is a great keyboard.  I like the feel and it is spread out enough that even my fat fingers have no trouble.  The virtual screen keyboard is OK, but I find the real keyboard better.APPS :DThere are plenty of apps on the Android Market, and finding and installing them is a piece of cake.  I use spreadsheets a lot and I was able to download the same program for this phone that I used on my old phone.  Editing documents is also easy using the keyboard.  Plus there are all the usual pre-installed run of the mill apps: calendar, calculator, etc...  They all work just like you expect them to.TOUCHPAD?!? WTF?!?! :DSpeaking of spreadsheets, there is this strange little touch pad on the back of the touch screen that you use just like a touch pad on a laptop.  I thought it was weird at first, but I have come to love it.  It makes scrolling around a spreadsheet a joy.  Much easier than swiping or using the arrow keys.  I know some people who think it's a waste, but I like it.  Nice job Motorola.MP3 PLAYER :)It makes a pretty good music device.  Sound is good but I thought it got a little gravely at close to full volume.  Even with earbuds.  I do like the AT&T; radio.  Actually works very well.  Makes up for not having an FM radio built in.  Ringtones are MP3 as well.  Lots of apps for those.CAMERA and VIDEO :)There is a 5 MP camera and a video capture app.  The camera works well and has the best flash I have seen on a camera phone.  Prints from the phone pics are very sharp. The video seems to work well but I haven't really used it that much.  Still it's neat to have.MULTITASKING :)You can run multiple apps on the phone while making a call.  I did it just to see if it worked.  I don't know that this is a great advantage but you can do it.  It can get confusing pretty fast.VOICE DIALING :(Motorola claims that this phone has voice dialing capability.  I could not get it to work well enough to be useful.  They could not get it to work well at the AT&T; store either.  I will miss voice dialing, as my old phone had pretty good voice dialing capability.  Voice dialing on this phone just doesn't seem to work well.  Very poor recognition.  (Just browse on AT&T;'s support site and you can find a lot of other Backflip users with the same complaint.)  I would rate voice dialing on this phone as bad.  It is so bad that I think Motorola should not even pretend they offer it.SCREEN PROTECTION :)It has a glass screen.  Nice, but because the phone flips backwards (leaving both the keyboard and screen exposed) I suggest you use a screen and keyboard protector.  Being glass, the screen shouldn't scratch easily but I feel better with a cover on it anyway. Motorola offers a two piece cover that works well for less than $10.00.  I am using one that the AT&T; store threw in for free when I got the phone. Does not seem to affect the touch screen sensitivity and keeps the keys up off the surface when you lay it down.  I do not use a case.  I just drop the phone in my pocket.CLOCK :DAnother neat feature that is a bit different, is that when unfolded halfway and plugged into charge the phone becomes a bedside alarm clock.  Not just a phone with an alarm, but a classy looking bedside alarm clock.  Pretty nifty. It also has all the normal clock and alarm functions.OVERALL :)In summery, this is first and foremost, a really good phone.  It also makes for a nice tool to manage your online stuff.  A pretty good music player.  A very capable business tool.  A good game device.  Nice camera and video camera. A very nice alarm clock. And a great texting phone.  Once you get used to it, I think you will like it.  The only feature that is below par, (especially for Motorola) is the voice dialing.Anyway, this is a "different" type of phone.  But different isn't always bad.  In this case it's great.  Good job Motorola.


Works great!

The only way they could really improve on this Bluetooth headset is to make it completely invisible, something like the Miracle Ear hearing aid.  I'm sure we'll see that someday soon, but until then, this is a fantastic headset.  Good sound quality, good range, very light weight, stylish and small.  I do wish that when I have an incoming call that it would read off the name from my Caller ID if the person is in my contacts list, instead it tells me that I have a call on Phone 1 (you can connect two phones, I don't know why you'd want to).  The only other gripe is that the backside does make my ear stick out a little further, but it's not that big of a deal.  I've also worn this with my glasses and it doesn't create and problems.  This headset is amazingly comfortable and light, I really enjoy it!


Horrible

This case looks nothing like the picture. I expected the case I saw In the picture! And when I received this case it was all scratched up and the cheetah print was coming off. Not good quality and it looks nothing like the case in the picture


Works great! Charger is a bit odd, but is universal this way.

I am using both of the 2200mAh batteries for my Samsung Galaxy Nexus (Verizon).  I can use them without replacing the back cover, which is nice.  The batteries seem to be of a nice quality and the charger is a good quality one, too.  The only odd thing is the charging pins on the charger are movable, which makes it somewhat universal in nature but one has to line-up the pins properly in order to charge.  NOT an issue though; just something to get used to.Also, this charger can be used to recharge your stock battery too and is nice and fast.Lastly, the shipping time was very fast and it was packaged well.  (The only feedback I have for shipping is this: The plastic around each battery is difficult to remove without using a knife or scissors that may result in nicking the battery because the plastic is almost form fitted onto the battery.  This will not cause issues though; except cosmetically).Good stuff!  So, I would recommend these batteries and charger to anyone looking for a little more time from their Nexus at a tremendously great price.


not trash

The listers who gave this a bad review are complete morons. If they had any common sense what so ever then they would realize that the galaxy s3's screen is NOT completely flat. Therefore even if these were a little bigger then there would be a 1/4 inch air bubble up both sides of the screen and every time your finger caught it, you would accidentally full your screen protector off...***** 5Stars for doing exactly what this is supposed to do and for an amazing price. Just ignore the idiot complainers.


Annoying Static

I agree with other reviews about the design features and charging options but those things come secondary if static over takes them. The static is real even the phone is only inches away from the unit. Unlike my earlier Bluetooth devices this one has really short range...like 3 feet. I can not live with static so this one is going back.Sorry Blueant.


iPhone 4

I love my phone I'm so happy with it. Everything he said about the phone was true. It had no cracks or scratches. It was nice and clean just simply beautiful for a used phone. Thank you 100 percent satisfied.


Good phone but........

I bought this phone and am happy with most features. It has a 5 megapix camera. watch most video sites and an endless android app market. but this phone has a huge downfall! Memory! after all the market apps you only have 170mb of storage (which I've never seen) in which may sound like enough but with only 2 apps @7-10mb and 10-12 small .5-2mb it keeps telling me insufficient memory. I would recommend for anyone who looking for a reasonably priced android except for this one prob. oh yeah, cheaper at metro pcs!


Very good economy inverter

Purchased this for running a few low power items when the utility power is out. Very impressed with the build quality of this unit. It does provide the rated 300 watts without overheating or shutting down as long as adequate ventilation is provided, these do generate heat that must be dissipated. No complaints here considering the cost.


Good phone, lousy carrier

I've owned my V3m for about 6 months now, and I've had no trouble with it at all.  My only complaint is with Verizon.  Motorola manufactured a phone that can be hooked up to your computer with a simple USB cord, making it easy to load your own pictures, wallpaper, ringtones, or whatever.  Verizon has blocked this ability on the phones they sell!  They want you to have to pay them to send pictures to yourself, and to have to buy ringtones.  Why should I pay them $2 to $3 each for tiny snippets of songs that I already own, or could buy from iTunes for 99 cents for the whole song?!The phone can be hacked (there are instructions all over the net), but you can fry your phone if you don't hack it properly, and the hacking voids your warranty, so if you're not pretty tech-savvy and you really want this phone, I'd STRONGLY advise that you go with another carrier that doesn't disable the phone's capabilities.  If I had known this when I bought my phone, that's what I'd have done, and I will be definitely be switching when my contract is up unless Verizon changes their policies.


A little disappointed as a former H17txt user

I purchased this headset almost 2 weeks ago and I must say that it is somewhat disappointing. My last tried and true bluetooth headset was the H17txt, so when it finally conked out on me and I saw this newer model I was excited to try it out. So here is my review on the upgraded txt model:Longer Range than the H17txt: I often can walk from my parking space to the entrance of the store and forget I left my phone in the car and it's not until I hear the phone 1 disconnected voice prompt that I realize I left my phone. This can be a good thing if you are doing multiple things around the house and don't want to worry about carrying your phone around, but can also be bad (for instance, you left your phone on the bus and the bus is on the next block pulling off already then you finally realize you left your phone).Sound Quality: I must say I agree with other users who have reviewed this headset and say that the sound is definitely average. I honestly don't think it's better than the previous model. I still have some trouble hearing people at times and for the price and with the advertising of all this HD audio, I definitely expected better sound performance. I have already had some people tell me they couldn't hear me while using it.Connectivity: The pairing the first time was pretty quick, but I notice that at times the connectivity gets lost when you flip open the boom it will say ready to pair instead of connecting to my already paired device. I did seem to have this issue with prior Android phone models with the H17txt so maybe this is just normal for these models. I sometimes have to go to my bluetooth devices on my phone settings and then click H19txt in order to get it to connect. This is rather annoying and inconvenient especially while driving.The Android App (My Motospeak): Downloading the app is rather pointless I have found because it hardly recognizes my commands when text messages come through and it asks if you want to listen now. Whether I say yes or no I have had to repeat myself more than once at times. Also, the H17txt MotoSpeak app was able to announce the callers by contact name. Apparently, Motorola has not updated this app for newer Android versions so anything beyond Android 2.3 we are stuck with just hearing the phone numbers announced digit by digit. Motorola definitely loses a star for this. If you are going to release a newer model of an accessory, you must keep the matching app up to date!Battery Life: The battery life lasts for hours I can use it all day. I have yet to find any other bluetooth that matches the battery life of Motorola's txt models, so this is still a plus with this newer model.Finally, what's in the box: Motorola for some reason decided to shorten the length of the usb cord that attaches to the plug to charge this headset. The usb plus is about 2 inches long. I'm not sure the thinking behind that but it's rather inconvenient.For the price this bluetooth costs, I would definitely not recommend it. I paid $55 for it and feel that it should not be much more in price than the prior model. At this point, unfortunately I cannot say that I would 100% recommend this product. Motorola has definitely let me down with the release of this model, I expected more.


Great phone for the price

I didn't want to spend alot on a phone and needed just a basic one.This fits all my needs for what I use a phone for.I would recommend this phone highly.


Not what was expected

This was a gift for my son for his phone, he wanted a really rubbery type of cover and this was one wasn't as rubbery as he had expected.


Sent it back

Got it one day,it was sent back the next day. I really wanted to like the phone but the 305c is a way better phone and much more ruged.


Two ports but second is of little use - still good value

There are two ports.  One is labeled IP Port the other non-IP (as of the date of this review).  Although the documentation does not specify the IP apparently stands for IPad.  The non-IP port does not charge some of my devices (Droid X, IPAD original) but does trickle-charge my HP Touchpad, Iphone 4 and Ipod Touch Gen II.  It's good for overnight charging of those devices but not much else.  The higher output IP Port does the job.  I was hoping for more from the lower output port (like being able to charge my Droid X so I could charge it and the IPAD at the same time). Nice price though and works well otherwise.


You should know this about THIS phone and some of the sellers

I ordered this phone in Sept, thinking I would be able to browse the internet and access the T-Mobile browser, media player etc. After several failed attempts to open the browser, T-Mobile finally had to send a 'fix' to the phone that would allow internet access, as much access as was possible for this Euro designed phone. I was only able to view some pages but could read my e-mail, that's it. No watching you tube or any videos, no listening to AOL Music or other streaming media. I mentioned this to Vibe Cellular, the internet access problem, they suggested calling t-mobile and LG for assistance, which did help fopr what it was worth. I bought this thinking it was FULLY compatible with T-Mobile...I figured, what the heck, who needs internet anyway...The phone came with a round prong charger (European 50 cycle type), with no adapter. I ordered a separate charger (through Amazon) which didn't fully charge the phone.I also didn't receive the 8gb card which I ordered and paid for. I instead received a 2gb card. Both of these issues were later resolved by Vibe Cellular after I contacted them.When the phone was able to receive a full charge more issues began showing up.The phone locked after appx.15 seconds of being idle. I repeatedly changed the settings to allow 1 minute(this was the longest time available in options), but the phone didn't change, it still locked up after a few seconds.I also had trouble sending and receiving messages. I contacted T-Mobile and thought that the issue was solved after taking appx.  30 minutes and 2 different T-Mobile agents to figure out how to fix it.I couldn't always send messages, sometimes I could but... can't explain other than to say that there was no rhyme or reason for this? I would send a message to someone, be in conversation, then all the sudden an error appeared???I began getting an ERROR 15 notification, maybe a dozen times a day ?I am not sure if all of the notifications were the same because my screen wouldn't unlock in time for me to read them?I only Know that I was constantly hearing the ERROR notification (the ones that I did get to read indicated delivery errors had occured, "message couldn't be sent")I would continually get more notifications asking if I wanted to continue to attempt to 're-send' the message.I hit the 'cancell' option but it didn't do any good. A few minutes later I would see that option again, and more than likely I would 'cancel' again...If you like going in circles, this is the phone for you !!!Also the screen became increasingly harder to 'wake' up or navigate.I would use the stylus because my fingers would sometimes hit the wrong button, even though I calibrated the screen more than once or twice.very frustrating to try to scroll down your contact list when the page won't move with your finger and you end up hitting the wrong contact...this is why I thought the stylus would help, but I was wrong. I would use the stylus to push the 'down' arrow but the screen wouldn't acknowledge the touch...It got to the point that I didn't even attempt to call anyone from the contact list, unless they happened to be on the first page!I guess the phone forced me into memorizing a lot of phone numbers...The screen also required more force to operate. A simple touch wouldn't always work.The new 8gb card was nice. I downloaded a bunch of music. BUT, Here is another issue.I like to set my phone up so that each of my contacts has a different song. The phone allowed this only a small percentage  of the time.I didn't understand that either, since All of the music was in the same format and all appeared to be fine when I editted the ringtones... but when the contact called, a different (default) ring tone would play...but not on every one, some of the sounds I actually applied...yeah...this COOKIE had some big crumbs...Finally.I was working last week when I heard the phone (which was safely stowed in it's protective holster at my side) giving the usual beep alerts, probably ERROR 15, but who knows ???When I was able to I pulled the phone out to check the alerts.To my surprise the LCD front looked very weird with lines all through it.As I put my finger on it to 'wake it' 'unlock it', the screen image looked as if my finger was breaking a glass. There were lines all through it and impossible to read anything !!!The good news is, it still receives calls !!!I contacted Vibe Cellular, but this was their response. (keep in mind that I didn't get the right charger or the larger 8gb card until many weeks after originally receiving this junk phone...It's funny that the ERROR 15, and other ERRORS, didn't really show up until I began using the 'correct' charger which charged the phone 5 x's better that the old one, and added the 8gb card...could this be why they weren't shipped originally?I was at minimum hoping that Vibe Cellular would offer to work out some deal...I mean I spent $[...] on this practically useless peice of garbage...Here is their reply...[...]Sincerely,Izzy


Works Well

The MiFi works great most of the time. Signal reception is ordinary and the device is very portable. It also has an antenna connection if you want to purchase an antenna to boost the signal. This device is invaluable on the road and I have no problems with using my VPN with work. (Server 2012)I am a pilot. I use this in hotels wherever I go so that I don't have to endure the slow or quirky internet they have.A large battery pack is available here on Amazon. The battery that comes with it can run it for a few hours of constant use or a day on standby.I use the sim card from my verizon 4g phone to get unlimited data on the unit because of my unlimited phone data plan. (Rumor has it that if you abuse the unlimited data you will see a huge bill or be disconnected.) (iPhone 4s sim did not work with this unit)Drawbacks:My device tends to get warm/hot when doing extended heavy downloads like Netflix. If it's in a cool place as I download all will be well as long as its fully charged and running on the USB power adapter that comes with it. It will be hottest if you are streaming Netflix off the battery in an area of weak signal.If it gets too hot it will freeze and to reboot it you will need to remove the battery. (A Firmware update might fix this someday)Overall, it works. I use it for part time internet on the road. The amazon price saves you over a hundred dollars.


Love it

Just got this in the mail today and it is great! Love the rhinestones. Fits nice and snug and doesn't feel bulky. You can't tell from the photo but it does have a soft rubbery feel to it which is nice. Definitely worth the extra money if you are used to getting the cheap cases like me!


Works well with Galaxy Nexus

My Galaxy Nexus with Platinum Series case (like a Seidio Surface case) exactly fits in this case - it is a tight fit but not difficult to get it in or out. The armband is well made and actually this setup works pretty well for me. It's a bit of a challenge to hit the power button though the side of the case to get the display to light up but after that, it's easy enough to interact - I use Endomondo Pro to track jogs and with the new UI redesign it's completely functional this way. The armband is broad enough and adjustable enough that the phone is very stable while jogging. The clear cover provides a bit of weather protection but I suspect that the phone would eventually get wet in anything beyond a light mist. If it ever rains here again I'll start carrying a ziplock bag in the interior pocket. The pocket is just big enough to carry an id and a key, but I think could hold a small ziplock too. All in all, I'm very satisfied with this setup, have tried with walking, jogging, and cycling so far. I'm not into using headphones out on the road (I want to hear the car coming that's about to hit me) but it looks like the headphone access slot would work fine with the GNex.


They do the job, but don't sound very good.

I wanted a cheap set of wireless earbuds that were very minimalistic. These did the job. I estimate that they have about 3 hours of listening time. The sound on them are not that great- I would rate them below the type of earbuds that come with any samsung phones or iphones. I live in a 3 story house and their range is pretty good- I can leave my device on the 3rd floor, and if I'm staying still on the 1st, they will work fine- but if you move around, it'll break up a bit. They don't get in my way when working out which is what I was looking for  so I got that. For the price, I'd say it's worth trying if you just need a cheap pair of bluetooth earbuds.Also, a little tip on connecting them to your device: Hold down the white button that turns the buds on and DON'T let go until they are fully connected. It will start blinking red and blue, that's when you pair them with your device. When it says connected, let go then. This process takes about 20 seconds. I was confused with the initial instructions.


Bad customer service

Can't set up email through blackberry now tigerdirect can't find my order number or information.


Not the best

Does not come out of the case very well.  Rubber part drags on base making it difficult to remove from clip.


love the item , check the cord when it comes it in

it works awesome, works on my apple phone, iPod, even works on my bf android phone.phone chargers right up anywhere you go pretty sweet that's a plus in my book. Make sure you checked the cord that comes with this item mine didn't work but luckily I had an extra cord for my portable hard drive that worked, and the customer service  was nice and super fast in responding to my complaint about the default cord. shipping was fast and came when it said it would .


Okay, but not great

Overall, it's better than the BT250 in a few ways, but still not as good as I'd expect from Jabra.  Here's my experience.  Please note that I am using a Treo 650 cell phone, which may not have the best bluetooth technology.Pros:- Extremely comfortable (that's why I bought Jabra)- Extremely lightweight- Decent battery life- Connects much faster than the BT250 (~2 seconds, versus ~4 seconds on the BT250)- Sound quality is better than the BT250- Lightweight charger that occupies only one powerstrip slotCons:- Status lights are placed behind semi-translucent rubber and are difficult to see -- especially in daylight- Sound quality is not as crisp as I'd expect (but this may be partially due to bluetooth technology in my Treo 650)- Doesn't always connect (may be due to the Treo)- Rubber earbud falls off VERY easily- Difficult to carry in pocket since earbud WILL fall off- Difficult to turn on/off (have to hold down the Answer button for 3 seconds to turn on and 5 seconds to turn off)I am very disappointed with the way Jabra designed the four buttons on the device: Volume Up, Volume Down, Pair, and Answer.  A dedicated button for pairing seems like a waste of a button -- especially when it doesn't have a power button.  There should be quick-response power button.  In the case of the Treo 650, if the bluetooth device is turned on and within 30 feet of the cell phone, calls will automatically get sent to the Jabra.  Which means that answering the phone is a pain in the butt unless you have the Jabra constantly in your ear.  I think Jabra expects you to wear this thing on your ear all day long -- kind of a stupid expectation, in my opinion.I do NOT recommend this product because of its shortcomings.


Picture Text

Very cool phone, only one problem. Be advised can not send or recieve picture text from this phone. I have tried everything and still no pics.


This product + 2 fat rubber bands = riding in style

After reading the Droid X horror story in another review, I was a bit hesitant to order this product. Let's just say I'm glad I took the risk. This mount is exactly what I was looking for something tho mount my current Moto Droid and my future Moto Droid Bionic in an easily visible/reachable position of my tadpole trike. This clamps the phone in securely as is, bar surround removed to flat piece, gorilla glued to a cut-out section of ~2mm thick plastic with 2 Velcro bands attached, and then strapped around the boom, but due to the aforementioned review I decided to put rubber bands around the mount at the top and bottom of the phone. The bands are the real fat grippy kind (think lobster bands only slightly larger diameter,) as tight as I could fit over the mount, so they stay in place very well and only touch the edges of the screen on both my Droid and my wife's Evo. Spend the dime (plus 3 bucks for the Velcro, but that's just in my case) and you will be sure that this mount will never sends your precious and expensive smartphone bouncing down the road. It was a great buy for me.


Very neat.. Nice when you don't want to carry a purse and don't want to shove in your pocket

Very cool! My phone fits perfectly and securely... You can't tell in the picture but built in is basically the bottom side of a case... So you phone snaps into it


Terrible

Terrible. Terrible. Terrible. Terrible. Terrible. Terrible. Terrible. Do not waste your money on this folks. You will be very sorry.


It came broken!

I received it completely shattered! The little box it came with was squished. The ones I had bought before came perfectly fine and sooner! Can I get another one without having to pay again ? I can send a picture of how I got it


phone don't work

I got this for my dad in Jamaica and the phone completely stop working after just 2 months. Phone will not turn on very disappointed with this item


Very nice case after it broke in.

So I tend to hold off on giving reviews until I actually use the product long enough to give a true one.  It's been about 3 months of using this product on the daily.  First off it was shipped quickly, well protected packaging; As mentioned in other reviews when trying to remove the case from the holster as first it tend to get a bit restriction from the rubber interior case but after a few hundred repeatition of sliding that it cut down access rubber which made it alot easier to withdrawl from the holster.  But to cheat that while it is breaking in I applied some armor all and it also slide with ease from that point - by doing that it'll also keep it clean and cosmetically looking good.  Now the design is also awesome - it has a thin rubber case that goes around the phone then a skeleton polymer case that goes over that to protect the corners.  When the phone is in the holster the screen in protected not just from scratches from a oopsie as well such as dropping it and cracking your screen.  People may wonder why I have a large phone and how rediculas this phone my look on your hip in a holster but that's my preference; but it's the case we're talking about here...another cool feature I learned after using this is that the clip is sort of like a quick detach - as I bumped into a wall and instead of the clip breaking off and that be the end of this case life -  it was able to be attached back to the base as ease.  Well all in all it was only a few bucks for this case and works very well after breaking it in.  I Hope this help any other consumer before purchasing this case.


"Excellent phone"

The best phone I ever own..........and besides that got it for$100.00 with $100.00 rebate !!!!!!So it's considered free.....from an independent dealer inside Sam's Club..Then go grab itguys......................


Bluetooth headphones

Good product to start of with... becomes clumsy as you start using it, especially if you have a big head like mine and longish thick hair... doesnt fit too nicely. Sound and bass is okay, can have some problems sometimes in pairing with ipod touch 2nd gen. Is stylish though, but for that price isnt worth that much. I feel the price should have been lower regarding the quality of the product. Paying about [...]bucks would have been fair... instead of [...].


Excellent product

Excellent charger, recharges phone very quickly. Very simple to use. Shiped as stated arrived on time. Compact nice bag to keep tips in.  Fits with everything a teenage girl can put in her purse.


nah, had better

this is no improvement than previous revo.  the visor is still annoying as heck, and it does not come with front screen protector.  nice try for such expensive product.


Simply awesome

I've never had the same phone for two years, so when I was able to upgrade I wanted to make sure I could handle living with the phone for two years. I love android but hate the battery life of the phones. So when I saw that this phone had up to 10 hours of battery life, I was pretty much sold. I use my phone for almost everything. From weather to reminders and timers. I've heard that it over heats, freezes, crashes and dies within hours of it off the charger. So far I have had no problems with the battery's life. It has never froze or crashed on me and it has not over heated. It does get a bit warm if you tend to use it a lot though. If you get an app killer, the battery life lasts me about 10 to 12 hours. It's fast, stylish and has room for more space if you need it. It's made for people like me who use it for everyday things and business people. Everything can sync from your computer to your phone and vise versa. It's simply amazing.


This makes you feel like James Bond!

I love the idea of this watch band! It was something i was waiting for a long time! At first i was skeptical about it, I was not sure if it was going to turn out to be the cheap watch band that pull your hair everytime they move. Once i got the box i opened it up and set my ipod nano like a charm. Its so light that sometimes i even forget i have it on! The other thing i was worried about was the idea of having to set the bands, which meant taking it down to a local shop and having someone taking out or adding bands to fit my wrist but right out the box this band fit me like it was made for me! (I have about average wrists in case your wondering)  There are a couple of drawbacks. If you order the "gun metal" wrist band it wont be the same color as shown in the pictures, its a couple of shades lighter, this depends on how you prefer your watch band to look. It actually works out for me because it matches my "black" ipod nano. The second drawback is that it will scratch the clip of your ipod when you are not wearing it, but then again if you are wearing the watch whose going to see the bottom of your ipod? I would definitely buy this product. I was however disappointed that its now $59.99 where as i paid $69.99 only a few weeks ago from amazon market place. But I love this so much that I am going to bite the bullet and live with spending the extra $10!!


It is an OK phone for someone wanting a larger screen

It is an OK phone. When used with t-mobile, only the Edge network is shown (100kb/s speed). Also, the size is uncommon (looks similar to Samsung Galaxy Note, but smaller), I am unable to find a cover for it. The included back cover is OK, not that good.  I bought it because its large screen.It works fine. Just do not count on using the mobile network that much. Wifi is good. Two SIM card slot is a plus.


Seidio 3600mAh Test

I needed a longer lasting battery than original 2100 mAh. After reading many forums and Amazon reviews on the subject, I purchased  Seidio 3600 mAH battery + back cover above. Also purchased Hyperion 4200 mAh + larger back cover combo.The Samsung 2100 mAh battery lasted between 10 to 14hours with mostly work related usage: phone 50%, email 25%, txt 20%, Internet 5% but NO games or movies.Installed Seidio 3600mAh 4 days ago. After first full charge from state it was in when I received the item, I only got 13hours of battery life. Waited until battery fail to 5% battery left, let it recharge all night long until fully charged up. To my surprise, I got 29 hours of battery life on second charge. On third charge, I am already at 26 hours of battery life with 32% battery life left !!!As far as the back cover is concerned, it is IMO the best extended battery cover out there. Great quality, looks great on GS3 and it allows a better phone grab than slim OEM cover without feeling bulky.After reading previous Amazon review, I also had my doubts at first concerning the closing of Seidio back cover but found out very fast, the phone and cover had to be pinched harder than original cover in order to close perfectly.From what I read, this battery needs to be completely discharge and recharged 4 to 5 times to get full battery power in the long run.I do not think a bigger battery is really necessary. The idea is to get enough battery power to get through a heavy work day without having to look for charger in the middle of a phone conversation. For those who like to watch movies or surf the Internet intensely, a bigger battery may be what you are looking for. Will test Hyperion 4200mAh and review in coming days.Also, and most importantly, GS3s are not made equal, some users have more apps, draining battery and running in background than others. I optimized my phone based on many reviews I read on Internet. I use my phone essentially for work related usage. So, battery test results may vary. I would like to insist on cover, being the best looking, feeling, quality out here. The Hyperion one feel very cheap.FYI, the Hyperion 4200mAh also works with Seidio back cover. Make sure you pitch phone and cover well.


Impressed/Improved

Better than my phone or computer, but not that loud. Am a gadget freak and wanted to see what the lower end of the BT speaker market might represent. The speaker seems well built and it paired quickly with our phones (but not my 1st generation iPad). The sound is decent but best to fill an interior room or for casual listening on the deck, not a party boom box. The manual and voice announcing mechanism show a surprising lack of sophistication when it comes to the US market, but not deal killers for me. I did try the speaker phone, which was ragged at best. I really have no reference point to compare this to direct competition, but for $30 it seems worth it overall.  If you want rich and louder sound, you'd have to spend a lot more I suspect.  Update: I deciphered the manual and figured out how to increase the volume by pressing down one of the buttons on the top of the box. It works, and now the volume is much louder. Since my first concern has been alleviated, I now give the box four stars. Try one!6/7/14My first box stopped charging recently, and when DK Knight learned of it, they sent me a new box no questions asked. The replacement is a big improvement vs. the original. Better build quality in terms of the rubberized components, no more irritating voice prompt, and much more volume capacity. This is a really good value vs. much more costly speakers with this look (my neighbor has a Jambox). I still rate the overall experience because of the first fail at 4 stars, but the upgraded version of the speaker is certainly more than worth considering!


You are going to either love this phone or hate this phone

You are either going to love this phone or hate this phone. I love mine. But I am going to write this review with an eye towards scaring away people who will hate this phone.This phone's feature set is balanced differently than most other phones in its price class. Other phones in this price class emphasize megapixels, music, video, and fashion. This phone emphasizes productivity and connectivity. If you want productivity and connectivity, here is your phone. If not, there are plenty of others to choose from here on Amazon and elsewhere.Let's start with what this phone does well -This phone remotely synchronizes with Microsoft Exchange. If your company uses Exchange, you will have one phone book, one appointment calendar, and one e-mail inbox equally available on your computer and your phone. Updates in either place show up in the other. The Nokia implementation even handles contacts that have a company name but no first-name or last-name fields. My Motorola RARZ2 V8 failed this test.The phone has Wi-Fi. I didn't know how much I would use Wi-Fi on my phone until I had it.The phone can display word, excel, and PDF documents. It runs Google Maps very well, but without a GPS chip, you can only locate your position within about 900 to 5000 meters.The phone has a real message waiting light. Why is this feature disappearing from modern phones?The phone supports high speed 3.5G data on two bands. This is a lot for a European phone, especially one that came to market last year. Sadly, high speed data service is pretty much nonexistent here in the United States, and much of what does exist is on a band this phone can't handle. But will you get EDGE data (and voice) nearly everywhere in the United States and abroad. Indeed, reception in fringe areas is significantly better than my wife's Nokia 6086. I have connected to ATT's HSPDA network in Cincinnati, Indianapolis, Madison, and Minneapolis. I can't connect in Chicago because the network runs on an incompatible frequency there (1900Mhz).Battery life is outstanding, especially for a thin phone.Now lets move on to this phone's weak points -The camera is only 2 megapixels. And it is fixed focus at that. And it doesn't work well in the dark. And there is only one of them [most phones capable of sending video have two - one facing outward and one facing you]. The camera is good enough for me, but I would never put shots from it in the family album.The music player doesn't display album art. No flashy light show either. And you are limited to the built-in speaker or a 2.5mm audio jack (I think it helps 'em keep the phone thin - forget about it and use A2DP if you want headphones). I must admit, however, that I really miss gapless playback. Music loads into the phone very slowly on account of the older 1.5 megabyte per second USB limit.The phone will record video. I have not been able to record video at Nokia's claimed quality (15 fps QVGA). I think I have been lied to. I think Nokia means either 15 FPS or QVGA, but not both at the same time.The phone will play video, even from YouTube, but not at high bitrates.Be prepared for plenty of British spelling in the menus and applications.This phone's idea of fashion is understated basic black. I like it, but then again I am this phones target audience.


Only lasted a month

The plastic parts that hold the phone in place just couldn't hold up to my normal use.  Within days pieces were breaking, and one month later it won't hold my phone at all.


Almost exactly what I am looking for.

This little Bluetooth headset has quite the roster of party tricks up its sleeve.  First and foremost is the ability to detach the headphones and use a different set, or plug it up to an AUX-IN on your car stereo for wireless streaming music.  Second are the "add-ons" you can install through your Android phone to enable enhanced functionality like seeing e-mail, calendar and Facebook post alerts on the device's little OLED screen.  Third is the NFC pairing, which is about as painless as possible (unless your phone is like mine and doesn't specify WHERE exactly the NFC antenna is, then you have to go hunting for it, slowly.)  Fourth is the aforementioned OLED screen. It's tiny but sharp and highly readable in indoor conditions; no more fumbling for the phone when you want to see what song you're listening to.  Fifth is the built-in FM radio, with RDS.  When you tire of your tunes or need to check the news, the FM radio is adequate enough to pull in strong local signals and show artist/song title/station name/info scrolls if your local stations support that feature.  Sixth is the light weight.  This thing is seriously a featherweight device, especially with the headphones detached.I've only had this unit for a few days, but so far I'm definitely impressed with its functionality.  The sound quality from the included ear buds (which come with three sizes of rubber fittings for different sized ears) is OK for casual users.  The unit is not *quite* strong enough to adequately power my Sennheiser over-the-ear home 'phones, which is a slight disappointment but not entirely unexpected from such a small mobile device as this.One goofy quirk I've found is that, at least when paired with my HTC Droid DNA, the headset works in two distinct modes.  It'll automatically reconnect with my phone when it's in range, but defaults to calls-only mode. To hear music from my phone, I have to manually select the little note icon from the menu on the headset.  The instructions imply this will auto-start my music player, but it doesn't do that on my particular phone.  Perhaps it's because I have several music players installed, I don't know.Another quirk is that this appears to have some sort of "hearing protection" volume limited turned on by default.  When trying to crank out the tunes with my big Sennheisers, I hit a volume limit at around 75% of max, with a little ear icon popping up on the display.  Somehow or another I managed to disable that, but I have no idea how.  It's not a feature in any of the menus on the device or the companion Android app on the phone.Speaking of settings, under setup on the headset there are just two options.  There's a factory reset which is way too easy to do (whoops!) and an undocumented little icon that looks like a rectangle with two arrows.  This feature flips the display upside down so you can use the device with the call answer button on the left instead of right of the screen.  Very handy.I haven't had it long enough to get an idea of battery life, but after charging the recommended 2.5 hours, I was able to update the firmware, play around with all the features for an hour, then stream two hours of music from my phone without the battery icon dropping even one bar.I'll update the review at some point in the future when I try out call quality, range and get a better idea of day to day life with this promising little headset.


A little different, but in a good way

Most belt holsters either fit the naked phone into them tightly or with a clip on top that ends up breaking. This is a little different in that it has a case that protects the outer parts of the phone and when slid into the holster it slides in and you feel and hear a positive sound/feel when it is in place. Nothing loud  and it won't disturd a quiet meeting but positive enough to notice.As far as the cover, some say adding a cover onto a phone adds too much girth. The same could be said of this one because it does add a noticable thickness but by keeping the same contour of the extended battery it actually makes the feel lighter, though thicker, and keeps the same ergonomic feel that inspires a confidence that the phone won't be easily dropped from no way to hold it without doing a Vulcan death grip.The actual feel of the case is hard to describe because it feels rubberized yet slick. The carbon fiber weave pattern helps it not feel slippery but when you are used to the rubber, extra grippy feel of the OEM battery cover  it can feel a bit disconcerting at first.A drawback ot the cover is mostly due to the phone. The power button is hard enough to find and press without the cover but the ridge along the upper back makes it a little harder. If the power button were not flush with the phone this would be a positive because the ridge would be just high enough to keep from accidental button presses on any other phone. It's not enough of a distraction to take off points but is worth noting.The stand on the cover just pops out of the back, works well, slides in and out easily yet stays in place at either point  and doesn't take away from the feel when holding the phone on a call or data session.There are 2 extra holes on the back that I would guess are because the antenna is on the back of the phone but seem to be in the wrong place. I have noticed 0 difference in reception with the cover on, same -dbm as when it is not on.The holster it like any other holster. A holder, a spinning clip that can be a real pain to remove from your belt or pants. It works great if you want to put the whole unit in your pocket and clip it to the outside of the pocket. A positive over many others is the way the case fits snugly, yet comes out easily and deosn't give me the impression that 1 drop will destroy it.The holster also has the same carbon fiber weave pattern and rubberized feel but it seems to have been a waste to do so and, imo, actually takes away from the look.Is it worth $25 after standard s/h? I'll let the buyer decide but I personally think they are all WAY over priced for a piece of plastic made in a foreign country using sweat labor.I'm not going to say "buy it" ,"don't buy it" but if I had to make the purchase again or get something different I would buy this product again.


slow as molasses in december

having read the other reviews on this phone i can only conclude that these are either htc or tmobile employees.  this phone is no faster than my samsung highlight or behold.  it has the worse set up as though they thought they were finished, suddenly thought of something else they could put on there and just threw it in where it would fit. trying to do something as simple as play music is next to impossible. pushing a single music icon should get you some type of noise. instead you get 3 minutes of waiting while the phone reads the SD card. and when i say waiting i mean the phone is frozen, unable to do anything. and then it for some reason decides to double up on every song and play it twice. admittedly i'm no techie, which is why i feel a little more comfortable in complaining about what should be a relatively easy way to watch movies, play music, and make phone calls turns into a 2 day attempt to load, wait, push play, wait, and then get to watch transformers. for example, the manual's table of contents, which you would think might have some sort of explanation on how to use the music player or to watch movies. while this can be figured out, i can't imagine anyone spending $400 on one of these and then having to struggle over how to use it. what amazes me more than how poorly the design of the applications is, is how people can say this is a good, some say great, phone. it's a piece of junk.  DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE !


Love it!

I have better service where I work then some with Iphones and Samsung contract phones that cost a lot more for both the service and the phones. They have had trouble getting 3G or 4G service and wifi wouldn't pick-up the service i he building, My phone had both. I love the feel of the phone. Easy to use and setup.


REALLY BAD!

Compre el celular el 16 de octubre, y ya hace 2 dias que lo tengo. Mi primera impresiones que parecia estar en buenas condiciones, luego me percate de que el celular no tiene operadora (ya que en la foto aparece como "t-mobile") Luego al encender el movil trate de escribir y note que no funcionaban las teclas i,o,k,l,"del" y m. luego de varios intentos si funcionan, pero esto pasa muy amenudo, no estoy satisfecho con mi compra, este vendedor es un estafador!


Product does not work on advertised cell phones!!

I bought this product to download pictures from my cell phone onto the computer.  The description stated that it would work for my selected model phone, however, it does NOT!!  The software needed to download the pictures is not correct. When we called the customer services they were of no help - they had no idea what to say or do to correct the problem.  Apparently I am not the only person to have this problem with the product.  Again, the cell phone models listed as being compatable with this data cable are NOT accurate.  It does not work.


Disappointing...

This works with Kindle FIRE, so I can't use it with my Kindle version. I also have an Android and this does not work with that, either.This wireless flash drive looks nice, however, it doesn't fit securely onto my Macbook.  Unlike my other stick drives, it wobbles when you touch it. Upon further inspection, it appears that the plastic case isn't securely sealed around the plug. So, when I put a small bit of pressure on the metal, the plastic separates. Obviously defective.Unfortunately, it was useless...


T-Mobile tells me that the phone is listed as blocked

The phone connected for a short while.  I took it to three T-Mobile stores, one of which told me the phone was refurbished, although it came in what seemed to be factory packaging.  They were unable to make the phone connect.  I sent the phone back to Samsung, they told me the phone was fully operational, but they could not connect to T-Mobile, either.I called T-Mobile for the third time, and they told me that the phone was blocked because I was not the owner, and that the phone initially worked because there was a time lag in their blocking system.  It appears the phone is either stolen, or the previous owner leased it and is not making payments.Besides the paying for phone service for the last two months, and having a non-working phone, I also lost my apps and data.  I have several hundred dollars in a pre-paid account the phone will not connect to, which is disappearing at the rate of $50 a month, so I hope this can be resolved quickly.UPDATEAmazon has been very helpful, and has treated me fairly.  My phone is now working.Unitek told me T-Mobile was blocking the phone because I didn't buy it from them.  T-Mobile says the phone was blocked because it's stolen.  Samsung says the phone is in perfect order.I sent the phone back to Unitek, and they returned it wiped, but working.  The IMEI number on the phone's paper label, and the IMEI label on box the phone came in, are different.  When the phone came back from Unitek, the IMEI number had been changed internally and did not match either of the other two numbers.Changing IMEI numbers on stolen phones is so common that there is proposed legislation, the "Mobile Device Theft Deterrence Act of 2013" that will, if passed, make reprogramming a phone's IMEI a crime punishable by up to five years in prison.More detail.  Many Android phones are identified by an IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity) number.  When a phone is stolen, a carrier blocks the phone using the IMEI.  This can take several months to happen.  So, even though you receive a working phone that appears to be new, that doesn't mean it will continue to work.There is a database of stolen phones, the Central Equipment Identity Register.  If a device is blacklisted in that database, it won't connect to any network.  Consumers do not have access to the database.You may find a phone's original IMEI under the battery.  The actual number can often be found in the phone's setup menu.  Sometimes dialing *#06# will produce it.  If it works, the IMEI will appear when you enter the last #.If you have a similar problem, this may help.  T-Mobile's telephone support will not help you unless you can supply your account PIN (Personal Identification Number), which you may not have readily available.  It was a problem for me because we were spending most of the winter in Florida to be with my wife's ailing mother.  T-Mobile staff at their stores will initially refuse to help without your PIN, but if you present sufficient identification, they should give you the number.  Sales staff may be unaware they can do that, but when I asked them to check policy, gave me my PIN.Store personnel will call phone support.  T-Mobile's phone support varies widely with respect to training and English fluency, but the store can more easily access a higher tier.  For reasons I don't understand, T-Mobil's phone support cannot reliably tell you if your phone has been blocked, but I got that information on the fifth call to them, not including visiting three T-Mobile brick and mortar stores.Store staff will swap your SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card, which will lose anything stored on your old SIM card, but the phone will remain blocked .  Before you let that happen, back up your information.  With your permission, they will reset your phone to its original state, which loses everything stored on the phone. It does not unblock the phone.Samsung supplies a program, Kies. It will backup some of the information on your Samsung Android phone.  It can also be used to update the Android operating system.  I strongly suggest you use Kies before you take your Samsung phone to a T-Mobile store.When I add up the cost of the phone, T-Mobile service I couldn't use because the phone wouldn't connect, shipping the phone to Samsung and Unitek, and the apps on it, the phone has cost $630.33 to date.  I have no confidence the phone is legal, or will continue to work with the new IMEI.According to an Internet advertisement, T-Mobile will sell me the same phone, no contract, for $463.99, and give me $50 worth of free time, which is $413.99 for the phone.  Unitek was a bad mistake, but I learned from it.


Handy little straps

These little things are great. We use them on our MP3 players, cell phones etc.


NO MUTE BUTTON!

I want to love this headset, but the lack of a mute button baffles me, and makes this a sub-par solution for me. It wasn't clear before I bought the device that it lacked a mute button. I can see from reading a bunch of the 1-3 star reviews that other people called out this deficiency. Since I use this device primarily as a headset for phone calls, a mute button is critical. I can't understand why it was left off the device.If you don't need this device for a lot of phone calls, it would likely be an excellent choice. Otherwise, stay away. I wish I hadn't bought it.


NOT RECOMMENED!!!

This was a total rip off. I placed one order and when go it in the mail, it looked used and did not have the battery with itr. when contacted the seller they sent another one out and it lasted literally 1 day. I would not recommend this to no one.


Good slim case for iphone 4

Great new case! It fits my iPhone 4 perfectly and I love the look of it. It is slimmer than my previous case (Otterbox Commuter), yet still protective with the wrap around TPU edges. It slides in and out of my purse easily as well as pants pockets.


application issue with tab 2

The second tab used in the install process is difficult to remove without leaving the glue residue behind and which is almost as difficult to remove (the residue no the protector). I ended up returning the product.


Does not look new, like a used one !

I ordered 2 phones, the back panel looks been used. I can see the difference between 2 .One looks brand new .. the other one looks used ..where I can see the color difference . Generally it will be like after being used....looks like that. I left the option to buy with Motorla and came to Amazon, but this is not as expected.


Excellent look and quality (so far)

This is great for several reasons:1.  The connector is small enough to fit into pretty much any iPhone case opening, which is rare to find!2.  The connector is slim and small (less chance it will break).3.  It's white, so at first glance, it looks like the official Apple product, but cooler.I'm holding back one star because, unlike official Apple ones, it doesn't have those release buttons that allow it to stay tighly in place until you press them.Still a great product for an unbeatable price.


Hate this phone--hoping to trade for a BB

First off, this is THE worst phone I have ever owned... (owned this Hero for about 2 months)Texting on this POS is incredibly irritating (a lot of times, the phone suggests and utilizes words which have nothing to do with the word you actually want), if you hit the wrong button, it screws up your entire word (and don't even think about turning off the T-9 or suggestive spelling... the keys are so small that texting without suggestions would take a decade).The phone itself is terribly slow, I haven't even downloaded apps for fear that the phone will run EVEN slower. If you try to text quickly or switch between apps, such as from messaging into camera, the thing locks up. I've had problems with the alarm app, too (keep in mind, these are apps that came with the phone)... I have to reset my daily alarms about once per week, since they seem to stop going off after a while. Also, if I'm on a call and the alarm goes off, sometimes the whole phone will lock up and the alarm will continue to chime AFTER I've turned it off. I have nothing to say about the Android apps, except that I don't need to watch TV or movies on my phone (I have a life outside of technology); the apps, in general, would be pretty useless, unless you go on long flights or train rides.Needless to say, I've almost thrown this terrible phone across the room on multiple occasions, just because of its lack of speed and tendency to freeze up during quick-texting. I've had a BB Pearl in the past, which I thought at the time to be a bad phone, but going back and getting a BB again would be a relief right about now... at least the old BB's worked quickly but weren't so quick to suggest useless words.One more thing, the camera on the Hero is horrible! Slow to auto-focus, and pics come out blurry unless you happen to be an inanimate statue or had been born with tripod arms. Come next pay check, I am selling this waste-of-plastic phone and plan to buy an older BB or even a new Palm.


Buy something else !!!

I bought a Galaxy 4 July 20. August 17 the screen went out. Sent it to Samsung for repair on 8/20. It was returned September 6. September 8 it will not receive a signal. Called service provider and did some trouble shooting only to find out that it's the phone again. Samsung will not replace the phone only repair it. Please buy something else !!!


no warranty

ok when I order this phone I was so happy I said to my self .soon it'is working I dont care for the warranty.the was a big no not. avry day the phone download.a demonstration how to used the phone.and erase all my phone constactavrything.I reset the phone to factory setting many times and still dowloading the stupid demo.evry single day.now after 4 or 5 months I remember the seller said no warranty because they knew the something was wrong with the phone.


Almost Perfect

I bought this case last week to use with my new iPhone 5.  First, I have to say that it's beautiful.  I bought mine in the champagne and I can't get over how adorable it is.  I'm not one to usually gush about glitter but this case is so pretty.  Now for the pros and cons:Pro:-super pretty-doesn't take up screen space-All the ports are fairly accessible**It's important to note that it is a LITTLE difficult to get to the power button on top but I haven't found it to be a huge problem.  I just have to change the angle at which I press.Cons:-Power button hard to get to-no screen protectionIt's not bulky but it's not a "slim fit" case either.  If you're looking for one of those, try one without a front plate.  Oh, one last note: it's easier to take off your phone than the Speck cases.


Does not work with Nexus 7

Bought this hoping to charge two Nexus 7 tablets but unfortunately it does not work. It does work with my Galaxy Nexus phone as the power draw is much less.I was hoping this would as the item is rated at 2.1A at 5V per usb and the Nexus 7 AC adapter is 2A at 5V. But when plugged in the tablets do not charge.If all I wanted was to charge two phones, there are far cheaper options.


Velco problems

I've had this case for only a few months and the velco holding the case shut is all worn out.  This is not an isolated case as another customer has had the same problem.  Beware, the velcro is of poor quality.


Highest Quality & Value I Have Ever Found!

I am just amazed at the sound of this `stereo headset' (not `ear buds').  This is based on the sound from my iPhone 4S.  Most equivalent sets give a good high and midrange, but stink with bass. The `Aleratec' manages to really give a solid bass boost and a bass drum feel that is perfectly synced and balanced with the mid and high range tones.  The drivers really must be high premium.  The acoustic sound and precise bass will make you toss out any other set of ear buds.  Only a good headset around your ears can produce a better sound.Unlike other ear buds, the 3.5mm jack is set at a right angle to prevent accidental pull-outs.  The bright red cord is flat, not round, so you won't get all tangled up like with typical ear buds; i.e., iPhone ear buds.  This is a nice design correction.The in-line microphone is an easy click to switch to phone calls and switching between music and calls is easy and feels intuitive.  When a phone call comes in, the sound of voices sound normal; not too tinny or bassy. The `noises isolation' actually works very well with the exclusionary action of outside noises.You know those Apple ear buds that always fall out of your ear?  These fits in your ears perfectly without fear of falling out while running or biking.  The simply design just works - these inventors know their stuff.The nicely packaged box (this is a great gift for birthdays, holidays or, um, new dates) also comes with extra ear plugs Gels (S, M, L) and a nice black felt bag for all.  Compare the price to other headsets or ear bud packages and you'll find that the quality and value is perfect.  This company knows how to market the right product with the right price.  Bottom line is the sound is just really perfectly real and perfectly balanced.Product supplied for a fair and honest review and this one was very easy.


good~

the best phone i have owned since buying phones. It a perfect phone to recommend to everyone who wants a phone that battery takes long time to die


This product has two annoying features...

...First, as some other reviewers have noted, the top clip overlaps the sleep/wake button and can shut the iPhone off by itself. Second, the belt clip is rounded, so the holder rocks when placed on a flat surface. The holder also does not allow for camera use. So, although the holder itself is well made, I have to take my phone out of the holder when I want to use it for anything. Annoying.


Did not fit probably SECONDS

beautiful design

this cover is hard plastic and the design its beautiful. The colors were awesome and it fit great on my phonethe downfall? it fit to well. I tried for almost 2 days to get the cover off the phone. I read reviews to see if there were any tricks I was missing. I ended up having to break it to get it off. out was a real bummer because it was a very pretty cover but after they'd first use it was broken. nice while it lasted.


Too costly overall with the need to buy additional receivers to remove a couple of wires

I received this device as a christmas present.  But realized that I have to spend $60 to get my phones to charge wirelessly on the powermat.The device is a good concept of charging several devices wirelessly. Unfortunately, it does not deliver out of the box and at a cost of $100 with the perception of wireless, it seems like marketing untruth.  For each device that you want to charge wirelessly, you need to buy a custom receiver ($30 each) that slips on the device and then you can lie the device on the powermat to charge. Therefore, you pay $100 for the powermat, and $30 per device.  This amounts to $190 (not including tax) to charge 3 devices wirelessly, which removes 2 cables of clutter for charging and now you have a long black mat sitting on your counter with a bunch of devices on it.  This lacks the oomph gained for wireless charging in functionality, the expenditure, and the space taken up by this device.Nice concept, but too expensive for the actual functionality of removing cable clutter.  This device should have come with at least 2 coupons free to get the custom receivers for the $100 price tag.  The dissapointing factor is that you need to really spend $200 to charge 3 devices wirelessly.


For the price, you can't go wrong!

No, this isn't the latest and greatest but it also doesn't carry the high price tag of being on the bleeding edge of technology. For the price and what it is, it offers a ton of bang for your buck and I definitely recommend it! I use an iPhone 5S and also had an LG G2 (the superphone sibling of this F6) so I'm used to high end phones - but I really like the F6.Pros:- 4G LTE (compatible with MetroPCS, T-Mobile, and AT&T;, once unlocked)- 1.2GHz dual-core Snapdragon 400 CPU w/ Adreno 305 GPU (definitely midrange, not entry level)- 1GB RAM- 5MP rear-facing camera w/ flash and auto focus, and front facing camera for video chat and 'selfies'- 4.5" qHD IPS LED screen ("IPS" = very wide viewing angles, not seen on cheap phones)- Large removable/replaceable lithium-ion battery and microSD slot for more storage space- "QuickRemote" app w/ infrared sensor to control your TV (mostly a gimmick but still fun!)- Physical home button is easy to use, and also serves as your multi-color service light for notifications (love this!)Cons:- No auto-brightness sensor (you'll have to adjust your brightness manually, not a big deal for most)- Could be faster or have more RAM, but this is a cheap phone!- Only 1.3GB user available memory for apps. I see a lot of people saying that is just utterly unacceptable, which I can see if you load up lots of games and apps.. but that's enough for me. I always use a microSD slot for my music and pictures and I don't download large games or apps to my phone; I download them to my tablet.All in all, a very nice phone for a small price tag. The screen is gorgeous for being on a cheap phone - thanks to the IPS panel - and the screen is just very responsive, which is important on a touch screen phone. It's thin and light, with a large battery. It's rated almost double that of my iPhone 5S! The camera is not top of the line you-can-print-and-frame-it, but will do just fine for Facebook, Instagram, and picture messaging. Call quality and speaker quality is good. When you're in a 4G LTE area, download speeds are just blazing fast. I would NOT buy a new phone without 4G LTE anymore. No, it's not necessary but everything loads instantly.. I like that. Like I said, it could be faster or use more RAM, but for the price, it's a GREAT buy. If you want something fancier, you'll have to open your wallet and step up to something like the LG G2 which is pricey.You'll probably compare this to the newer Optimus L70 also available on MetroPCS at a lower price tag, but you lose 4G LTE and step down to a Snapdragon 200 CPU w/ Adreno 203 CPU. Paying extra for the F6 is well worth it me but to each their own.


This item  is not genuine...

This iten is a knock off of the original one. it looks like it except  for the fact that the cord is shorter and the sound is crappy.


I BOUGHT TWO BUT I ONLY RECEIVED ONE

I BOUGHT TWO OF THIS PHONES BY JANUARY 30th AND TODAY IS MARCH 1st AND I HAVE RECEIVED ONLY ONE. I HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES BUT NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM. I DEMAND MY PHONE RIGHT NOW, I ALREADY HAVE EXPECTED LONG TIME!!!!!!!


The "Over Protective Sandwich Bag"

This product does just what it advertises for! I bought this so I can lounge in my pool and also take underwater videos, and it works! I tested the case out first by putting a napkin or paper towel in it then submerging it underwater for 10 minutes. Then I took it out to find no water inside it or on the napkin. So then I tested out my smartphone in it still worked. Now you have to know that you cannot use the iPhones touchscreen underwater, even with any case. But I use this to text while I am in the pool or listen to my music. I have recorded a 5 minute underwater video with my iPhone 5 in this case and it looks beautiful. You can even put a case on and put it into this very protective sandwich bag. Please save your money from buying an $80 waterproof case and buy this! Worth the purchase. And the picture matches the exact look of the case! I recommend this case to anyone looking for a waterproof case!


great cable

The cable is super long and super useful! it is tough too. I have been using it almost a year, and it is still working. It is really convenience.


Great phone for the money

This is a really good phone if you just need a basic model for low use, or just to keep for emergencies.  I've had the big phone contracts, but now, I do not need that and I cannot justify paying that bill every month for a phone that I rarely use. I previously had a samsung katalyst and before that a samsung flip phone, I love the samsung phones they are really good quality and stand up to a decent amount of abuse.  This particular phone is a cheaper model, but is similar to the Katalyst that I just finished up with. So far it's been good, sound quality is good.  I also want to touch on tracphone's customer service.  I had to call them because the minutes I placed on my phone didn't show up on the phone after several attempts to retrieve them, Customer service was excellent!  They walked be through what to do and problem solved, they were very polite and curtious as well, all around a great experience.  Did have to wait on hold either; my call was answered quickly and efficently. I'm definetly happy that I decided to go with the tracphone!!!


It's JUNK - DON'T BUY IT!

This thing is junk!!  Will only charge my son's iPad mini when I hold the chord a very specific way.  Then as soon as I let go, it stops charging.  Going to have to break down and spend the money on a genuine Apple lightning chord.


A very small device, tested to charge my device at 1700mA per hour. These are very fast results!

USB devices are becoming essential in many people’s lifestyles. For vehicles that don’t have included USB ports, iClever has made the Clever 18W/3.6A max Dual Port USB Car Charger.▶ Package Contents• iClever Car Charger• Instruction Manual• Warranty Card▶ Specifications• Input: DC12-24V/2000mA (Max)• Output1 (Apple): DC5V/2600mA• Output2 (Android): DC5V/1000mA• Dimensions: 76 x 33 x 24.8mm• Weight: <35g▶ HardwareDespite its large description picture, this device is very small (2.99” x 1.3” x 0.97”), light (1.3 ounces), and comes in black or white. At the top is the connector into your car outlet, with two balls on each side to maintain a stabilized position. On the side is the iClever name and logo, and on the end are two USB ports, one marked Android (DC5V/1A) and Apple (DC5V/2.6A). I wish the ports would be marked with its current setting instead of “Apple” and “Android” because some Android devices require more than 1A to charge. I really like the overall design of this product, but unfortunately it has a very similar design to RAVPower’s car charger. The only difference from the two products is the Apple port current (2.6A) of iClever’s product is higher than RAVPower’s (2.1A).▶ TestingI tested this product with my Honda Odyssey and my Nexus 7 (2013) with a 3950mA battery, running no processes except system apps. I performed two tests on this device, a multimeter test at the start and end, and a fast charge test to calculate the amount this device charges per an hour.Multimeter test:• 43%Current: 1.12AVoltage: 4.98VMax Current: 1.14AMin Voltage to Power Device: 4.90V• 83%Current: 0.71AVoltage: 5.00VMax Current: 0.78AMin Voltage to Power Device: 4.90VThe Nexus 7 takes current according to the battery life. To get 1A at 43% and 0.7A at 83% is a good indicator that this will charge your device fast.Fast Charge Test:Time: Nexus 7 Charge %7:56AM: 43%9:06AM: 83%Nexus 7 Battery Size x Amount Charged = Total Charge3950mA * (0.50) = 1975mATotal Charge / Time (hours) = Charge per Hour1975mA/1.15h = 1717mA per HourThis device charges at 1717mA per an hour, these are amazingly fast results for a car charger, considering my OEM wall charger only charges at approximately 700mA per an hour. These results conclude this charger does indeed charge fast.▶ Final ThoughtsI am very impressed by the speed of charge from this device, as it is capable of charging my Nexus 7 at 1717mA per an hour. Because of these results, I recommend this device to anyone that needs a USB car charger and give this product a 5 star rating. iClever did a very good job making this device.Pros:+ A very small device, tested to charge my device at 1700mA per hour. These are very fast results!Cons:- Ports are labeled “Apple” and “Android” instead of “2.6A” and “2.1A”.- Similar design to another car charger from another company.I was provided a sample in exchange for a thorough and honest review.


Simple and Nice Protective Case

Just as a brief rant: People, please only write a review and rate the product if you HAVE the product and have used the product. Whether or not it was shipped on time or whatever has NOTHING to do with the product. If someone sent you the WRONG product, that should not effect your rating of THIS product. Save that for rating the seller. If I hadn't seen so many bad reviews on Amazon for this product, I probably would have ordered it online and saved a bit of money. [Expletive]. Anyway...Pros:-Doesn't add much bulk. In fact I think it adds just enough to make it more comfortable in your hands.-protects the ports very well, while still allowing access to them.-screen protector is a very nice addition.-And the rubber bulges on the side actual make the buttons easier to feel. I like that a lot, actually. Before I was always stumbling about for the right buttons.Cons:-Doesn't have a clip for a belt.-Could use a few rubber dots on the back to keep it from sliding when placed on its back.Now, it's a very nice case. I've seen things on here about the top part not staying on very well. Not true. It stays on quite well. Takes a bit of force to get it off, in fact. Don't know about whether it will fit into a dock. Guy in Verizon said it wouldn't. I'm thinking of getting a dock for my Droid, in which case will probably just have to take off the back portion (which isn't much trouble). And I haven't dropped it yet, but the phone seems very secure and the case seems very durable. I will probably shop around for a good belt pouch that will fit it and I'll be all set. Oh, and I cannot comment on whether it will accommodate an extended battery. Hope this helps. Don't let so many negative reviews on here prevent you from getting this. :/


Quality case and nice-looking, too!

I wasn't sure if I'd like the chameleon quality of this case, but I love it! All the colors are attractive. It's a very quality-looking and feeling case. And it does provide protection. Unfortunately, I've dropped my phone a couple of times already and so far, so good.


A good upgrade.

Purchased this battery for my HTC Sensation 4G (Uses the same battery size as the EVO 3D) This is a good updgrade, went from 1520 Mah to 1730 Mah.


Bad battery

I purchased two of these batteries from AccessoryOne and both were much worst then the original batteries.  They would not hold a charge and had very little talk time.  Do not buy from AccessoryOne.


a very interesting phone, with regular HTC problems

First of all, this is my 3rd android phone, and my 2nd HTC android phone.What i like:==========-the screen is really crisp-the touch feel is more responsive than my HTC desire-screen size is just awesome if you do a lot of reading with your phone "emails, news"-the phone is surprisingly lighter than it seems, one may think "this must be heavy", well it is not-the phone is very slim, which gives it with the huge screen size some CLASSY effect-nice htc widgets available, specially email and news widgets, can't live without these two-htc new sence feature like locating your phone, locking it .. etc, really nice, but i disabled them thinking this might affect battery life- rom space is just awesome, no need for app-to-sd to keep all ur market installed appz available.- better multitouch experience than the former htc desirewhat i hate:==========- the battery life .. are you kidding me?! 1230mah on such a screen is just too funny for anyone who is heavily using his phone, switching to 2G only network is a must if your daily talk time exceeds 20 minutes to be able to pass the day with one charge.- mobility, can't fit it into my pocket, used to fit its elder, tinier brother the HTC desire with ease, even with the extended battery- htc must do something about their package ease of opening- htc must change the phone access ways, never been so afraid opening a phone before, feels like it is gonna break a plastic pin all way through.- no space for respectable extended batteries, which is what this phone REALLY needs.- the LOUD speaker experience in all HTC phones is not the greatest, my wife's XT701 the 1 year old phone is WAY better than this 1 month old telephone- upto 320 hours standby time on WCDMA and 480 on GSM >> that's just a big fat lie.- the price kept me from buying it for at least 45 days till it dropped a bit, initial prices here for high end new electronics are crazyWhat i wanted:============- better resolution, one of the biggest screens in the market and still using the same resolution as 3.5 and 3.7 inches phones?! i want something to compete with the iphone4 screen creating a new standard of its own.


it feels cheap but looks ok

25 dollars for a phone case it is I think a good range for a decent one,I like the package and the way it looks but the plastics feel really cheap i know is not a otterbox case but really, the package says that it is a wallet with a removable case and it is kinda true if you can remove the wallet from the case, like i said the plastics feel so cheap that I think it will brake if I pull any harder' maybe is just me but I dont think you should be wrestling with your phone case to remove it from the wallet


Odd feel to this protector - Update: It sucks!

The instructions with the package are really quite poor. They could do a better job at making sure you go to the video to see a demonstration. Fortunately I read enough reviews to know this ahead of time and installed the protectors without a problem. Didn't really see the point of the side protection pieces. I did put one piece on to protect from the dreaded antenna attenutation problems, but it made the stainless steel look dingy, so I took it off - wasn't having much antenna problem anyway.The organge peel effect you get with this protector really detracts from the crispness of the iPhone 4 display. And I dislike the tacky feel this protector has - my fingers don't glide, they skid when I'm using the touch screen. I'll be ordering the Powersupport Crystal screen protector when it comes out. Had very good experience with it on my two previous iPhones. Might keep the ZAGG on the back where the tacky feel has some benefit; especially if the Powersupport doesn't come with a rear protector.Update: Put this in my pocket one day and the protector curled up and fell off!


Great Product

I was looking for some protection for my new Blackberry Z10, which I love by the way. I wanted something that would offer protection for the outer case without adding alot of weight or bulk. I also wanted a product that would not interfere with the operation.I found exactly what I was looking for with the I-Blason SoftGel Flexible Case.


Responsive customer service

I have never written a product review before but felt that perhaps it would  be worth my effort to do one for this product since there was only one on Amazon at the time I purchased mine.We have Consumer Cellular as our mobile carrier and they use AT&T; towers and 4-G for their transmissions.  According to their coverage map we live in an area that should have great coverage.  Unfortunately our house is down in a low laying area and over the years our in-house cell reception has been spotty at best no matter who our carrier was.  Since things were no different in this case, we started looking for a solution  and Cel-Fi looked good.After the initial setup and trial period for a couple of days I wasn't happy with the results as we had trouble keeping the signal between the sending and receiving unit.  I wrote Cel-Fi requesting a return and received a very courteous e-mail reply with suggestions that could help our plight as well as an offer to return it if we weren't ultimately happy.  In the end, their suggestions worked and after a week of use, we feel confident enough now to be able to get rid of our land line and go totally to our cell phones.We were really happy with the customer service we received from Cel-Fi and, even though this is an expensive approach to solving our problem, would recommend the company and the product.


Works Fine When It Works ~~~~~~~~~

I have been trying to locate a decent hands-free setup to use with my iPhone while driving my car. After trying a few "Bluetooth" wireless types with less-than-satisfactory results I decided to try this "wired" setup, since my last Nokia cell phone worked perfectly with their standard wired hands-free device.This Mr. Handsfree "Genius" was simple to install - it was a FAST install using the cigar-lighter plug method but almost as fast using the hard-wired power cable. It was loud enough and clear enough in both directions (I could hear the caller just fine and the caller said I sounded so clear that they couldn't tell I was in the car) and the car-radio-volume attenuator worked perfectly - whenever the iPhone rang or when I placed a call, the car radio's sound diminished to barely audible.HOWEVER - for some reason, about two or three minutes into the conversation, the volume of the hands-free device would simply diminish to the point that I could no longer hear the caller. Also, the caller said that after a couple of moments he could not hear me either. I thought I had just purchased a faulty unit so I returned it and received another fresh one a day later.It sounded equally as well as the first unit, but then the same thing happened with the second one - the volume just dropped to nothing about 2-3 minutes into the conversation.These two devices sounded far better than the Bluetooth units I have tried (two Jabra units and one Motorola) but for some reason didn't work but for a few minutes after connecting. I thought about trying another one but I'm not feeling lucky - I'll wait for their next version and see what it's like.Just to blow someone's horn here, Amazon was flawless in their selling, returning, shipping, etc.


Like the 2 in 1 design

The Tepeak cradle works well. The quality is good. The plastic doesn't seem cheap. The magnet is strong enough to hold the phone on bumpy roads but not too strong so I can easily pull it off. The clip is convenient when my wife drives my car and wants to use her phone.The only complain is that the metal plate looks unappealing on the back of the phone, because it is raw material without paint. This won't be an issue if your phone has case or pouch so you can hide/insert the plate inside. But I like my phone just bare. So I would prefer some better looking plate. My suggestion for the manufacturer, get some good paint on the plate, or use shiny stainless steel, or at least include some stickers with different colors (black, white, or silver...).


Met my expectations.

It did what I expect it to do. I was able to use it with both iphone 4 as well as ipod touch 4th generation. With iPod Touch I need to use the case and with Iphone I need to remove the case. I would say it is very sturdy and holds the phone pretty tight. I don't know how some people managed to drop their phones. I am thinking they might not have installed it properly.I wish they made this more generic by providing holders for different units such as blackberry for some some additional cost. I have a blackberry as well and the holder comes with this unit does not take the blackberry torch.


Nice phone for the price

I purchased this phone for my wife. Got the white version (seller actually shipped black by mistake which we returned, black with green is horrible looking).My wife is not very tech savvy and needed a good looking small phone with touchscreen. All she wanted is a new generation good looking basic phone.Pros: 1) Very Good looking in white color2) Small size - easy to keep in pocket3) It actually works good as a phone4) Biggest advantage is that it has Android OS5) Web-browsing is great. Sometimes, I play youtube videos on it connecting it to wi-fi at home. Screen is sharp and speakers are great.6) Camera is average, videos recording it very good (resolution is not very high but in small size, its quite clean).Cons: Battery life could have been great.We purchased it more than 6 months back. Its all plastic but build quality is good. We have a small baby who mishandles this phone often but there are no issues yet mechanically or cosmetically.If you wish to have a small sized and sleek phone with touch screen, wifi connection to internet, android OS, average camera, you will not go wrong with it. If you want a phone with much higher capabilities, look somewhere else.


it so nice

I'm using it to charge my Htc one at night but you should be aware that there is no adapter included in the package; so, you have to buy it by your own


Compact & Cute

I really like this wallet. I have the purple S3 & the wallet matches the phone perfectly. It holds about 10 items in the card slots without being bulky,  but you will definitely need a screen protector though. The quality is good & durable. I gave it 4 stars because of the shipping. I paid for expedited shipping & still took about two to arrive. I've gotten a lot of compliments on the wallet. Like it a lot!!!!


Best bang for buck.

With the iPhone and Android touchscreen slabs saturating the smartphone market, I began to wonder if physical controls were going to go extinct. Sure, iOS4, Android 2.2, and WebOS are all fantastic touch-based OS's, but it's refreshing to go back to a D-Pad based world of Nokia E-series phones. Although Symbian S60 3rd is not flashy, pinchy, nor swipy; it is a very stable OS which runs very snappy on modern hardware like the Nokia E5.Pro's:The E5 comes pre-loaded with tons of software including offline GPS navigation and QuickOffice.it also works very well with Google Sync.Cut/copy/paste work just like a PC: Ctrl- X/C/VThe build quality is solid and expensive-feeling.Con:I would easily give this phone a 5-star rating, but I cannot since the LCD's viewing angles are horrible.I wish the screen had a higher resolution..


Great Product!

I bought the Celjel cloth to clean my new Android and am now using it on all my electronics, eyeglasses and sunglasses.  The only problem I'm having is that I can only buy one at a time, and I want 6! We want them at home, in the car and at work.  As the other reviewer said, this cloth makes surfaces look new and crystal clear without messy or damaging solutions.


Dissapointed with the cell phone strap

Clutch itself is OK looking, however, I was very dissapointed to find out that the strap that is supposed to keep the cell phone firmly in place is not a button, but rather a magnet.I do not trust that the magnet is strong enough to hold my expensive iPhone in place, so now I can't use this clutch for going out to a club or bar as there is a good chance I will lose my phone.  Poorly designed if you ask me.


Superior quality ahead of the rest

So I have been on the market for a iPhone 5 wallet case for a while. I had previously purchased the Book book for iphone 5 ($59.99)Initially I was extremely happy with it for the first week, However when taking a closer look, I noticed it started falling apart and would not stay closed when sitting on a desk, The heavy plastic used to hold the iphone was covered in a textured rubber and was peeling off...it was a real eye sore for me as this does not qualify for quality workmanship...you could also see the glue they used in various spots (oversprayish).Now on to the point about the P&Q; Little black pocket book... As soon as I opened the case and held it..it felt solid and smelt amazing...lol. Inserted the iphone and it was held firmly in place with there awesome wood design. I am able to hold my credit,debit,gym and drivers license along with 3 twenty dollar bills comfortably. the elastic is a definite helper as it would not stay shut otherwise, tried with three cards  no bill and it could almost stay shut without elastic assistance. Once again the quality of the leather and wood are excellent.Three things I thing P&Q; could improve on are the number of cards the wallet is supposed to hold, it has three slots so three cards...however I believe there is room for one more slot behind the ID slot as my drivers license sits very deep in that slot...in fact that is where i keep the fourth card.I am still getting used to the idea of having the elastic on the case as personally it feels better without it, I am still getting used to it. in time I think the daily usage will wear the wallet in nicely and it could do without the elastic... plus looks sleeker. Eventually I may snip it off. Future improvement for P&Q; may be a removable elastic for those that do and don't like it.The Fake Book mark tab at the bottom is a nice touch to the case aesthetically. It has gotten in the way when trying to remove the lightning cable at night as I seem to grab both the tab and cable... not being able to pull it out...lol not a big deal at all.One more thing... I Can't believe more people have not purchased this case!! It is my replacement wallet now.I hope P&Q; do come out with more color variations in the future for their products... black on black please...or some brighter colors for that matter, may be some other materials as well.I love this case an believe I will use it till my next phone purchase in 2 years. I purchased the case directly from P&Q; online and use a coupon code for a discount...they had amazing fast shipping.Cheers to hand made quality workmanship....like things used to be lol.


extras in box confused the application process.

I like the tech but i was so lost on how to apply the thing. I saw a alcohol wipe in the box and had no idea what to do with it so I wiped the class that came in the box. The glass picked up soooooooooo much lint and I got sooooooooo frustrated. I immediately called the company and complained. They said they'd send me a replacement but I have yet to get it.
