Cell Phone HTC Touch Hero Sprint CDMA Deals & Reviews

Alex (Murphysboro Illinois): I've had the HTC Hero for a few years now, and I have to say that it has been a fairly enjoyable experience. To start things off, it has HTC Sense, something I would say is a nice modification to the original Android. Sense as I would describe it is basically (at least for the Hero) a completely new GUI. It allows 7 main screens, extra widgets, and as HTC says, is more developed around "you". The phone is easily rootable through the XDA app Universal Androot, which is a big plus for me, but somehow, when you shut your device off, the Hero reverses the root. I'm not sure if this has something to do with my carrier (Alltel) or the actual device, but it can be tiresome to have to reroot your device to turn on WiFi tether.


Earl "Florida" (Brandon): I bought this phone as replacement for my boyfriend's phone. We have Sprint and his died after only a month. I guess that's what happens when you get the free phone offered at sign up. This phone works just fine, I'm very pleased with the purchase and got a much better deal than anything I could've gotten through Sprint.


Nick Sudyka "~Sudyka*" (Gulfport, MS USA): This phone is really good for its price ! Even though its a little old but it is worth way more than what you are paying for . This phone is good with many applications, texting and calling, and great with wifi connection . The only bad thing about it that it doesnt come with a sd card.


Auroramonroe "auroramonroe" (columbia, md): I've had this phone for two years and it has been satisfactory. It was a good price and has held up with few issues. The battery life is short. The touchscreen is very finicky, sometimes it doesn't pick up input. The phone keyboard is small and difficult to text on. Surfing on the phone can be time consuming. Photos are not high quality.
I know, a lot of cons. But if you are looking for a starter smartphone, this is a good choice. It was my first smartphone and it was just what I needed at the time.

Cell Phone HTC One, Silver Deals & Reviews

Jason M. Stone "UX Designer" (Denver, CO USA): Earlier this year, I jumped ship from Apple (the iPhone 5, specifically) to Samsung's Galaxy Note II. In the process, I also went from AT&T to a rival carrier offering unlimited data and slightly lower monthly bills. While I liked the Note II very much, the data speeds on the other carrier were so poor that, only four months later, I found myself willing to eat the very large early termination fee and switch back to AT&T (who I knew firsthand to have LTE in this market). Since I was switching carriers and had the option to get a new phone, I figured I might as well pick up the latest and greatest on the Android front. Plus it just happened to be release day.


D. Miyao (San Diego): Yes I am that Apple fanboy who used to wait in every line when every iteration of the iPhone was released. I have owned every iPhone from the very first one and have loved the design and software of every phone. Only recently did I become seriously interested in Android based phones again because of the Galaxy S4 and all of its cool features like preview without touching the screen or eye tracking. I have tried Android phones in the past as well as Windows 7 phones, and I never thought I would give them a shot again but Samsung's big marketing push peaked my interest.


BDA 45 (Fresno, CA United States):
As I said before, I like to keep up on tech stuff. There is an article published on 04/30 that indicated the 16GB Galaxy S4 actually has only 8.8GB free for the consumer to use! And, that is not because of carrier bloat-ware, the test was done on an unlocked, sim-free device. A carrier-specific phone was also tested and guess what? 8.8GB too! That means Samsung has locked away 7.2GB for its own OS and features, as well as any carrier's installations, and none of that is accessible to the user, even if, say, only 5GB are actually needed. The ONE uses about 5GB for the OS, HTC's features, and the carrier's "stuff." So the pricing difference mentioned in the original post is even more dramatic: Samsung must really expect its customers will just bend over and say "Thank you Sir! May I have another?"


Jazmin (pennsylvania): As the previous owner of the Galaxy S3, which up until recently was what many say was the best phone on the market, the HTC One makes all other phones seem outdated. If you are a avid news reader, sports fanatic, or social networker then the Blinkfeed home screen is for you. While many may find the Blinkfeed home screen a drawback because of not being able to remove it, it is very useful to have all of your updates for news, game scores, and social networks in one easily accessible place. The camera is by far the best camera in any phone I have owned. The front camera is incredible. Ever picture I have taken so far has been flawless. The speakers are loud and exactly what was described in the previews of this phone. If you have trouble hearing an alarm in the morning, this phone will definitely wake you up. This phone is available in 32gb and 64gb, if you use a lot of apps and put a lot of media in the phone,I recommend the 64gb.

Cell Phone HTC T8788 7 Surround Deals & Reviews

Diego Vega Aguirre (Quito, Ecuador): I have been using this phone for about six weeks by now. Before I got the HTC Surround I used Apple's iPhone 3GS, and HTC Touch Pro. I will review not just the phone, because I think the OS is also very important when talking about HTC Surround.
Dimensions and Characteristics
I think the screen size is the same of iPhone's 3G or 4G. Talking about image quality, I can't find any differences between them, of course there might be some technical differences but I am not able to notice them with my eyes :).
The phone size is very similar to the iPhone; HTC Surround is a little bigger because of the speaker, but I would say there is no size difference. The built in camera is good and you have a good flash light also which is nice to have when taking pictures in dark ambience.


PS3MyLuv (NY - USA): My 5 stars are for the HTC 7 Surround phone itself; I'll explain. My cousin has this phone, she bought it about a year ago and she loves it. I played with it from time to time and found it easy to use and very stable (unlike my Android phone), and the slideup speakers to be cool. It eventually inspired me to buy an HTC Radar 4G and switch to T-Mobile as my carrier. I love WinPhone 7.5, so much so that I wanted to become a developer.


Alessandro Fuchs (Burlington, VT, US): All in all the HTC Surround is a solid WP7 Device. You should not, I repeat should not buy this device for its speaker. It is a great all around smartphone with a great screen, good performance and great feel, that just happens to have a nice slide out speaker system, not the other way around. If you are looking for a device without a physical keyboard that is thin light and sturdy with good performance that is priced competitively this is a great choice.


Arkmommy (arkansas): I always wait to review things until I've had them at least a month. I bought it as a Father's Day gift for husband and he loves it. We are partial though as we gave up Apple products a couple years ago and are now 100% loyal Windows/Microsoft fans. But if the phone was crap, believe me I would say it so you would be spared the purchase. The only thing is he isn't able to open up pictures. He fully believes that is an issue with him not figuring out something and not a default with the phone.

Cell Phone HTC EVO LTE Deals & Reviews

Santadestroy (Charlotte, NC): I'm what some would call an android purist. I like stock android, i think its gorgeous, works well, and flows nicely. However, sticking with stock devices (i'm also one of those who feels like getting updates from google is a pro, not something to work around) means compromising certain things...in the case of my last phone? The camera and so so battery life (verizon galaxy nexus) when i made the jump to sprint i was taken by the striking look of the evo 4g lte, a phone that in black/red, never stood out to me (aside from the screen and knowing it basically a one x with some makeup on.)


35-year Technology Consumer "8-tracks to 802.... (Mid Atlantic, USA (vinerevieweratgmail)): This phone accommodates a microSD storage device (up to 32GB capacity). The install slot for this us under the top rear cover, which --unlike the EVO 4G-- does not have an obvious "pry point" for removing the cover. Work around the USB/charging port with a thin, flat tool and the cover will snap right off. The separate HDMI port present on the EVO 4G has left the 4G LTE, leaving this phone with just two ports: the USB/charging port (on the side) and a standard aux output. In addition to an on/off button (top), volume controls (right side), there is now a physical camera button on the lower right side of the phone.


B. Williams (Charlotte NC): So far the only issue that has emerged with this phone is an inability to fully run Amazon's own music app. Content on the phone plays fine, but my cloud-stored music never loads in the app's cloud tab. I would have also had the "kickstand" hinge from the opposite side, so that it could be used when a USB cable is plugged in.
Finally, even though Sprint has an activation web site for phones you purchase outside of a Sprint store, if you are you will have to call a toll free number to complete activation if you have more than one phone on a shared data plan. While the call center's hours are long, they are NOT 24/7, so re-think activating the new phone as a project for a sleepless night:-)


DWRachel "Disko Warp Rachel" (Jacksonville, NC): I was debating between getting an iPhone or sticking with Android, and I ended up with this HTC. I'm very glad I did! The screen is beautifully clear and large, but the phone is still small enough to comfortably hold in one hand. I've had it for several months now and I haven't had any trouble with it. The interface is pretty intuitive and the screens are easy to arrange and customize. I'd recommend this phone to anyone looking for a nice smartphone.

Cell Phone HTC HD2 Windows Deals & Reviews

H. Sachan (Seattle, WA United States):  This phone is great, although their are some cut backs, its good does what a phone should do, the texting is easy, has a new feature where you can drag on the screen and it goes along with what your aiming for, pretty neat, still getting the feel for now, but will update the review if i ever have problems, but for now, the 6.5 on hd is the best possible phone u can have, and you say wow, look at that screen, why get a iphone, when you can have so many more apps on a HD2, and have a cheaper bill with t-mobile, financing + no contract = best price ever :D.


F. Mcdonald "JM" (Bay Area, Ca USA): I have used HTC Touch Pro 2 for couple years. As a business person I keep my customer base and contacts (4,100+) on my phone synchronized with computer using ActivSync. Tried the HD7 but Microsoft has abandoned the average business user / salesperson with the new Windows 7 format. We will not upload our customer base and massive number of contacts to a remote "cloud server" (it's a convoluted and tedious project), my customer base stays on my phone or computer period. HD7 and Windows 7 phones are probably great for teenagers or self-absorbed facebook and twitterers.....but not for Microsoft's base customers looking for a productivity tool. I'm very disappointed that Microsoft has taken this direction in their latest phone OS. What's next? getting rid of Microsoft Office all together in favor of all business people uploading our contracts, proposals, and invoices to Bill Gates directly for his stamp of approval?


R. Watterson (Norfolk, VA): I am writing this review after owning this phone for over two years. For starters...WinMo 6.5 sucked. No mincing words there. It was good for it's time.
Android is a whole 'nother Universe. Google search "HD2 Roms" or visit XDA Developers and see for yourself. Hundreds of developers are still cranking out dozens of new roms for this phone DAILY! This phone handles every OS thrown at it. Android, WindowsPhone7, Ubuntu, Windows 95, Windows 98, and XP and Play Station emulator.
It overclocks well and updates easily. Folks slamming this phone really have no idea what they are talking about. Buy it while you can...I own two. (My daily driver is my first one and is running an Android rom developed by Dorimanx.) And it handles 32GB Class 10 cards as well no sweat.


Black Beauty (Chicago, IL USA): I am a "tech head" and I was so anxious to buy this phone. After being wait-listed by every T-Mobile store in the city, Amazon saved the day!! I absolutely love this phone. The screen size and quality is unbelieveable! Even the battery life is amazing. The swype text feature is fun.
Now with all that being sad...I HATE the Windows marketplace!! All the apps you want are either, not available or cost waaaaay too much. The google apps are plentiful and are either free or inexpensive. Hopefully, they will update the marketplace soon.

Cell Phone Sprint HTC Evo 4g Smart Deals & Reviews

Eric S. Kipe ""FatDad"" (Las Vegas): The Evo 4G I purchased from Amazon's merchant MidStar was defective. According to my local Sprint repair store the phone had been reprogrammed before I received it, Midstar's response was "I believe Sprint might not know how to activate the phone because we have purchased them directly from our Sprint supplier. We have also received activation instructions from them".
Really... The rep at the Sprint store was kind enough to replace the defective phone with one of their's, less than 10 minutes later I am out the door with a working phone. I guess they know how to program a phone after all.

Craig Dobis "Eggspert Reviewer" (Canton, Michigan USA): I've been using this phone for a few months now. It's been very good, easy to use and fast. I noticed once in a while, the person I was talking to on the phone, would have trouble hearing me saying the volume of my voice was too low. Then other times the volume of my voice was fine.
A couple of days ago, the microphone in the phone went dead and the only thing the person on the other end could hear was static.
HTC support told me to soft boot, then hard boot the phone, but it didn't help. I now have to contact them again to say their support help did not work.


Steve Weltman "Steve Weltman" (Los Angeles, CA): When I bought this from Amazon, I expected that it would be delivered in a couple of days on my Prime account...it took TEN days, which is just revolting. They extended my return interval to 31 Jan 2013 and that's fine if it's working. However, the phone was just returned to me for a return. Now I am out $200 because some monkey at 5 turd distribution thinks I am trying to scam them. Quite frankly, I will NEVER purchase from this vendor again, even if their price is 50% less than the next vendor. Stay away from them. No good service, no good products.


Craig J. Schultz (Craig, Rio de Janeiro):  I bought a HTC EVO in white about a month ago. I got the phone a couple days earlier than expected and in near perfect condition (refurbished phone). I have been extremely happy with the phone and the customer service from the company. All of my emails were addressed quickly and to my satisfaction. This is my first over the internet purchase, so I was apprehensive about buying an expensive item. After buying the phone, I will trust well rated sellers with a little less skepticism.

Cell Phone HTC Aria A6366 Deals & Reviews

Juan Bosco Bustos Salazar "Tico Comprador" (MIAMI, FLORIDA United States): I have been using this product now for 1.5 years. I have rooted it and installed CM7 (Android 2.3.7 Gingerbread) with which you can move almost any application to the SD card. So the aforementioned memory issue is really not a problem. If you are a power user and comfortable with rooting and installing ROMs I would highly recommend it. What I most like is the form factor since I really do not like to carry a big smartphone in my pocket.

Peter Gales (New York, NY USA): I got this phone because I thought the latest models were too expensive. I don't need to be connected all of the time and the reviews for this phone suggested that it was one of the best when it came out.
I was disappointed to find there were no headphones in the unit. Compared to a blackberry I find it very difficult to quickly get to a name in my contacts. I find it annoying that I cannot get the notifications to only alert me for certain kinds of events e.g. only SMS or What's app.


Surf Traveler (Vienna, VA): I ordered this phone as a back up phone because I dropped my old one. At first I was having troubles linking the phone to my Facebook/Twitter/E-mail account and the default internet browser could not connect on the 3G network. I was about to send it back but I eventually got it to work. The battery life is horrible though so I would suggest buying a second battery if you are away from home all day. I went a day without charging it and the battery life was critically low at the end of they day. I only used it to text and maybe one or two small phone calls. Great phone though. The OS is amazing and it's working like a charm!

J. Tapley "real deal" (Alaska): I chose this item because it was similar to a previous phone I had, was compatible with my plan and was compact so I would be less likely to drop it. The only thing that is a problem is texting cause the board is small. It is easier to landscape the screen to type and text. However, I prefer a qwerty keypad to the touchscreen so others may not find this a problem. Yet, obviously this has been noted as a problem so HTC provides a lot of suggestions when typing to help with identifying errors.

Cell Phone Sprint HTC Evo Deals & Reviews

R. Sims (texas): My phone was delivered before the estimated delivery date which was great because the one I had was driving me crazy.It was new and came in the original packing just as described...the reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is because when I purchased the phone it was stated as "brand new" so I was bummed when I discovered it came with a universal charger not the original and the 8g memory card wasn't included either.Anyway phone works well.


Jean (Stephens City, VA, United States): I have written a review for this Item before and now cannot find it. So, in the interest of keeping folks informed I am re-writing it. I received the item as advertised before Christmas and was able to activate it just as they said. It seemed to worked great and we moved on. In the coming weeks I noticed that when I was talking to my wife, she would start sounding very far away and I would have to strain to hear her. I was constantly asking her to "talk louder" or "can you say that again". BUT, by the time I figured out it was the phone (I bought her for Christmas), and I wasn't the only one to have this problem while talking to her, I had gone past the 30 day limit. So, I didn't call about it. Later a review reminder came to me in an email so I gave a review of three stars because it worked but was a pain and most of the time you have to reboot it to get to work right.


Claudia (West Hartford, CT, US): I bought this phone and it was delivered within the 3 days that they said it would be! I activated it through my phone company and the phone itself would not keep a signal. It would say I had full reception then the next second it would say I had no reception. This would happen constantly so I contacted the company that I bought it from. They said it sounded like an internal component in the phone. They said to send it back and they would send me a new one. They were very nice and helpful. When I sent the phone back, I had a new one in a timely manner and I've never had problems with it. I love my phone and the company was very understanding. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because I had phone problems when I got the first one, it does not reflect on the company. 5 stars for the company!


James R Bockrath (Columbus Grove, Ohio United States): I bought the HTC Evo 4g, it said that the phone was brand new and it was shipped from 5 star distributor. i took it in to get it activated at sprint and they couldnt activate it because the phone has parts that dont even belong to HTC and the water spot is active. On the box it said that the phone comes with an 8 GB SD card and i looked inside it had a 2 GB SD card. I'm really surprised that they thought that they could get away with something like this. I'm not a phone geek or anything like that but I'm also not stupid.

Cell Phone HTC DROID INCREDIBLE Android Deals & Reviews

Strbildr (hudson valley ny): Htc droid incredible is a nice upgrade from the htc eris i used for two years, i like to buy the phones new out of contract once they become slightly outdated , they still work great but i don't pay full price or get locked in. so far the incredible has been very reliable and easy to use, battery life is just fine , i use the advanced app killer all the time. so far so good, i think one thing people fail to remember is that these are phones with small batteries that some ask to do the things of a laptop all day that has a battery 100x the size . realistic expectations are required and you will be satisfied with your smart phone.


B. Janusch (Phoenix, AZ USA): I pre-ordered this phone and got it the day it came out in April 2010. Since day one it has been a reliable phone that gets strong signal here in Phoenix. 21 months later I upgraded to a new dual-core, 4G phone only because I got the upgrade for free. I was more than ready to stay with my Incredible for even longer. The phone wasn't perfect and there were 2 clear downs to it. The first being the brightness of the screen. It was not very useful outside. This was common in all of the 1st generation AMOLED screens. Second, 3.7" is the absolute minimum screen size for a usable phone. The phone I switched to is 4.3" and there is a noticible difference. That said, the phone never gave me trouble. It could play all early generation games, was great on WiFi and 3G alike, and came with a sturdy Sense skin from HTC that I loved. On the extended battery I got an easy 18 hours of battery life, which was more than enough.

T. Walker "NVMT" (Henderson, NV USA): It works for me. I use it obviously for a phone, for email, texting, Twitter, Facebook, Words with Friends, camera, as a PDA. I got an extra battery, but I really do not have a problem with the battery. Perhaps with a day of heavy use. I just got it because of the reviews about battery life. I even have the live wallpaper, which does not seem to affect the battery life. It is not the newest phone out, so I am sure there is better, but to buy a phone to be contract free, I love it.


C. Kiefer (San Francisco): In a small office, we've used the Droid X, HTC Rhyme and Thunderbolt (which has a terrible battery) but surprisingly enough, the Incredible has been the most reliable performer !
The phone has been fast, the screen has been sharp since we've had it, the battery has been great too! I'm kinda surprised that the manufacturers didn't stick with these internal components.

Cell Phone HTC A9192 Inspire Deals & Reviews

Daisy S "Daisy S" (Hot Springs, AR) : Overall I am very pleased with this phone. I purchased an HTC phone because I had the HTC Incredible and loved it and I wanted to stay with the same user interface. The only reason I purchased a new phone is that I am leaving Verizon and going to Straight Talk and they require a GSM phone.

James Meighan (ENFIELD, CT, US): Quite impressed with this. The hardware is thin and light and feels solid. The screen is great. The touchscreen is responsive. The CPU is fast. With some effort you can install Cyanogen on it, to get rid of the awful HTC operating system, malware, bloatware, spyware and crapware. In the very few moments I had this phone before deleting the HTC stock ROM, I did observe about fifty apps on it that are all crapware that it doesn't let you delete, so unless you like crapware or are planning to install Cyanogen, you might want to consider another phone. I have not used it except under Cyanogen so other users may have a different experience. One note on the seller, it's really slow to ship. The site said it's in stock but it took over a week to ship it, even though I ordered next day delivery.


K. Bowser "Nittany Lion" (Tampa, FL USA): This phone has one of the biggest screens on the market right now, which is great if you surf the web mainly on your phone. 5 stars there. It's also my first smart phone I've owned, and I'm pretty biased towards the Android market; I have no plans of ever owning an iPhone. With that said, there are a few minor things that I have no doubt HTC will be able to upgrade in the future.
-Sometimes, when I attempt to type a new url in the browser, instead of the "enter" triangle-shaped button, it gives me the refresh button and i literally cannot go to the new website. But this isn't every time.


FraterMus "FraterMus" (75081): I bought this phone last Friday.It is so good.Big microphone,big touch screen.The HTC sence is pretty good.I can't use my word to describe this phone.My friend thought this phone better than iphone4.That was true.If you want to buy a big touch screen phone and do not want to buy a expensive phone.This one is good.I suggest you buy a battery after you buy this phone because it's a big phone.

Cell Phone Samsung Focus I917 Deals & Reviews

Matthew D. Ruffell (Webster, NY USA): The AMOLED screen is awesome! Much better than the iPhone, HTC and Motorola displays. It truly is amazing and works good in all conditions including outdoors. The Samsung Captivate (android phone) also has the same screen. If fact, Samsung is now switching all their future phones to use AMOLED.The Speaker and call quality is very good. I have used a lot of phones and I can tell you this is the best yet. The speaker phone sounds just as good as a full size home phone. Compared to my daughters new iPod, the Focus speaker is way better, and she even admitted it.


Bos Vinamou (Littleton, CO): Two I917 purchases -- first one defective, inaudible ear volume. I did some online checking but was unable to determine if cell-to-ear volume was a specific model weakness. Three points from my ordering experience: 1) check the vendor's return policy before purchasing; 2) when you receive the order check the phone properties first--it's easy to become enchanted with smartphones to the point of overlooking the basic on ear use; 3) buyers should reflect on the liklihood that any unlocked cell listed is actually new.


Elliot S. (Chicago, IL USA): First of all, let me begin by saying I was an early adopter of the iPhone, the first generation was a tank until dust got the best of it (under home button). Later on moving onto Android based phones and enjoying those as well. When there was a lot of positive feedback on windows 7.5 mobile and my other phone being drowned in beef stock. I decided to take the plunge with this little gem.
Upon receiving the phone the packaging was no frills, and made me nervous. Before running the phone I charged the battery and installed an additional 8gb micro sd card I got for 19.99 (PNY MicroSD) because in the documentation WP7 takes over the SD card for good!


Chad (Virginia, USA): I purchased this phone hoping I could get a very nice smartphone at a good price. When I received the phone I was amazed at the quality of it. The picture looks amazing, the sound is great, and the touch screen seems better than an iPhone! I had an issue with the charging of the phone taking too long in the beginning, but am happy to say I no longer have an issue with that. This is a great phone that I would recommend to anyone!

Cell Phone Body Glove Drop Suit Rugged Deals & Reviews

Scott Cummings "PatriotResource" (Louisiana): Having been satisfied with my Body Glove case for my Samsung Captivate (Galaxy S), I went ahead and gave this case a try. Like my previous Body Glove case, this one fits snugly over the phone. Once on, it stays tight and doesn't slip. The case's ridges make the phone 'grippy' and much less likely to slip out of one's grasp. The case also has a lip that goes up and over the edge of the face of the phone meaning the phone itself is protected from directly hitting an edge and cracking.


Rudy M (Greeley, CO USA): Finally, a case that I won't be returning. It maintains the thin profile of my GS3 while providing what feels like very adequate "bounce" protection. I doubt that I could slam my phone to the ground or launch it like a knuckle-ball, but if my phone were to drop from chest level, it would be fine. The material is a nice rigid rubber. It's not gummy or pliable like the OtterBox rubber. Instead it feels like a rubber/resin composite. Very nice. The cut outs are all perfectly centered around the required openings. The fit is very snug. The edge of the case around the screen has a raised lip that allows you to place the phone face down on a flat surface. The best thing about this case? The grip! Oh my gosh, the grip! There is no better protection for your phone than not dropping it in the first place. The ribs on both sides of the case are genius.


Azazel "Electronics Addict" (USA): Since I had planned to upgrade to the S3 for a while, I made sure to do a lot of research on what case would protect it, not add a lot of bulk, but also makes it easy to grip. To my surprise, Body Glove's name popped up again when I found this Drop Suit Rugged case (my previous case for my vibrant was a Body Glove case, so I might be a little biased since it did so well). It's perfect in every way and it doesn't add much bulk (although it looks like it does in the picture). I like that it's not a 2 piece case either. Holes match up perfect, the charger that comes with the phone fits with the case on, no problem.


K. Rokovich "hauyoudoin" (Austin, TX): I love this case. I was a little worried when I first bought it because of the lack of reviews on Amazon. I bought it anyway and am very happy with the purchase. The case fits the SIII perfectly, all the cut outs are in the right spot and are done perfectly. Before I had a case I was always concerned about my phone, but now I can put it down on the table without worrying about scratching the screen or the camera glass. The phone fills much more secure in my hands with this case on it, and it still slides in and out of my pocket without any problem. I have had the case for over a week and have not noticed any lint build up around the edges... its totally lint free. I really don't have any complaints. I am so glad I bought this case. 100% satisfied!

Cell Phone Samsung S5230 Hello Kitty Pink Deals & Reviews

Lyla Kelley "blondebunny" (Lago Vista Texas!!):I have had many phones...maybe 10 per year. I have always just wanted a really cute phone that is girly...this phone was released my Samsung for $250....for some reason they re-launched the phone under Anycall, which is Samsung is another country...it comes with a case and different packaging but is $500.
I have had really good luck with the phone. A few quirks need to be worked out and you need to call your cell provider to get it set up for messaging, web. I don't use the internet on my phone..I use the camera, which is good...text and call..both are great...It also has a feature where you hold down the down volume button and your phone will ring..you set up when..10 sec, 1 min...and you can even add voice...it's called fake call...pretty cool when someone is talking my ear off and I am thinking of how to get out of the conversation.


Sonya Derrick "VIXEN DIVA" (Atlanta, GA): The music player is awesome. I loaded all my tunes on a memory card and it has great sound. Samsung has a different plug in..but you can get an adapter on Amazon for a few bucks so you can use MP3 speakers or headphones. I put it on speaker phone when I take a shower and it is loud and clear. I used the music player one day for 6 hours straight and used one bar of battery life. I haven't had the battery die on me quickly..It has lots of Hello Kitty wallpapers and it is adorable in person..Purchased an invisible protection for it...like a screen protector but covers the front back and sides...or you will want one or a clear snap on cover. You want to be able to see the Hello Kitty design on the back. If you buy it in plain colors it is much less money....I got mine at wireless experts with no problems and paid $236 plus shipping. Please note..I believe a phone is a phone..I have had the T Mobile Tap(lags) Behold(crap camera)Blackberry Bold and Pearl(don't like the keys) T Mobile slider wifi in white mint..can't remember the name of it..too bulky..Nokia 7510 Super Nova, too heavy and others.


J. Kemple-calambas (CHICAGO, IL): When I first got the phone I was really frustrated, it came up with a stupid error saying that service was unavailable, not only that but it was in Hungarian. I went to my service provider and they fixed everything! It has been a really fun phone, I love the radio and mp3 player. I highly suggest buying a stylus, it makes it much easier to use! Also plan on buying memory-you can't use the mp3 player or the computer software without it. Memory can be bought pretty cheap here in amazon. Overall I love it, I get compliments on it all of the time and because it wasn't released here in America, it is very unique!


Shopper "Lisa" (Louisiana, USA): I bought this phone and got surprised with hungarian language when I switched phone ON for a first time - needed google translate in order to make phone working and switch to english. then phone was randomly rebooting - brought it to local service to update firmware and then finnaly phone started to work fine.
In overal - phone itself is completely OK and working just like expected according to specifications, and most important - my kid is really happy with it,but startup problems spoiled my experience with phone a lot.

Cell Phone Samsung A177 Deals & Reviews

C. R. Jackson(USA, CA): The husband and I are no longer under contract, and did not want to get back into one just to get an affordable phone with the features he needs. An unlocked cell phone seemed to fit our requirements, but I was skeptical. However, based on the prior reviews, and on other information I found on the web about this particular phone, I decided to try it. The vendor confirmed that this model would work with the T-Mobile SIM card. Sure enough, it does! Sound quality is really good, and it has pretty much every feature you'd find in similar phones (the Blackberry Curve comes to mind). Calendar, messaging, web capable, this phone is a virtual office in the palm of his hand.


Matt (MS): I was looking for an unlocked GSM phone that was good for talking and texting and that didn't cost a fortune. After reading a few reviews I thought this would be a good choice. The phone is light weight with a good sized screen, but the amenities stop there. The keys are extremely small and hard to use at an adequate speed when texting or dialing a number. The camera gives you a grainy picture at best and in order to send a text I can honestly say that if you don't happen to know the persons cell number by memory, this phone requires a ridiculous amount of steps before you hit the Send button not to mention that hardly any of us remembers numbers anymore since contact numbers are programmed into every cell phone.


Thrifty (CA): I got this phone for my wife so she could have something nice for texting. Plus, she visits the UK frequently and we wanted a phone that we could put a Tesco SIM card in while she is over there. It has worked flawlessly both in the UK as well as on the AT&T network here in the states. It does exactly what it says it will do. No complaints.I bought this phone because i needed a cheep unlocked phone to last me till november but the moment i opened the box i fell in love! The shiny blackshell pared with the brightly colored backgrounds gives it a real polished look. The set up is very user friendly get this phone don't look at anything else!


Sean C. Ryan (Ruston, LA): I assumed incorrectly that a later model phone such as this would be on the "3g" network, which is significant, as the 2g GSM network is being slowly dismantled and spectrum is being moved to 3G and 4G endeavors. Also, if you have a 3G Microcell in your house to boost coverage at home, this phone won't connect to that, either.
Other than that, it's a good, cheap, basic, no-contract phone that makes texting reasonably easy.

Cell Phone Samsung Galaxy Pocket S5300 Deals & Reviews

Nadia Mayorga Zumbado "NANA" (COSTA RICA): It has an elegant design, it's easy to use, it's very feminine. One thing that I have a problem with is the sound gallery, in all honesty the ringtones are all a little weird. The other one is the charger - the charger in itself seems ok, but I've had problems with the travel adapter which looks very cheap. It simply refuses to make proper contact. Fortunately, my Kindle charger works with the phone, so I solved the problem. And at least I know that when I go to Europe, I will have a charger for my phone and my Kindle:)


Margot Salas(NY): Like it very much... Although it has a much older version of android, it is awesome and does everything I need it to do, which is make calls and text. I played with the wifi and its great though I do not use the wifi. Touch is very responsive. Nice nice nice. Fits in my palm and pocket easily...
As of the time of this review, I have had this phone for 2 days... the only con is I cant get it to read my microSD card YET.I call this phone "semi-smart" because it does almost everything you'll need a smart phone to do but slower, with less screen resolution and a bit more hassle.


Nihon-Ga-ru!(USA, Ci): You have the option of turning this off, but it vibrates when you press buttons. For e.g., I described text-ing on it to my friend, as "typing on a small angry power drill". It makes the noise too. Plays music just as loudly as any other phone (with or without headphones) OH, by the way, the heads are pretty cool, having been adapted into 3 shrinking bulb shapes to fit comfortably in and with little less chance of falling out of, than traditional non-ear-bud head phones, the ear. And the headphones have a mic, so no need to hold this biscuit in your hand while talking.


H. Tan(Canada): I was looking for an inexpensive, reliable unlocked gsm Android phone, and it is what it is. I never knew how difficult it is to find affordable unlocked phones in the US without being tethered to a major communications carrier. Nevertheless, I can make phone calls, send/receive e-mails and txt msgs, which serves my bottom-line needs. My 14 yo daughter wouldn't care for this phone at all because the web access would be too slow for her.

Cell Phone Mirror Screen Protector Deals & Reviews

Maria Bobeda "interested reader" (Asuncion, Paraguay): When I bought this Mirror screen protector I paid $5.31 and it is absolutely useless! The primary reason for a screen is to be able to see what is written on it but this protector just mirrors too much and you can barely see what is on the screen in a softly lit room, but outside or in a well lit room the screen is unreadable because of the glare. The product description says: "...crystal clear visibility when screen is on", this is simply not true! I am removing this screen protector and buying another transparent one. DO NOT BUY.

Alaysia Marshall(New Zeland): I've had one of these mirror screen protectors before so I knew what I was in for. This one is terrible. You cannot use it outside or in a brightly lit room. It doesn't fit the screen properly it has rounded edges,the screen its protecting is almost square. It too cheap to return, it would cost me more in time then its worth to return. Shipping took forever too.When I purchased this I thought that it would prevent my screen from getting a scratch. When I got this in the mail it would not stick on my screen.


Tony(Canada): My biggest disappointment after opening the packaging is that the film protector does not cover the entire screen! It leaves 3 mm of edges, making your Galaxy S3 plain ugly. The image they advertised shows coverage of the whole screen, that's why it is misleading. I had it for 3 hours, and took it off. Complete waste of money.The piece is a mirror cause it is super thick, of course if the plastic is that thick it will reflect itself. smaller than the screen doesnt even cover the whole display part. Dont buy its not worth it.


Chinito Lindo(London): Product is not truly a mirror finish cover. Also, it does not cover the complete face of the phone (Samsung Galaxy SIII). Does not look like the picture in the sales info. The cutouts are just block cutout areas instead of nice, neat & clean holes & slots sized to fit around phone openings.
Obviously a cheap import product, where the shipping cost you more than the item. They couldn't even send the correct number of covers that were ordered!!!

Cell Phone SAMSUNG Y GALAXY S-5360 Deals & Reviews

SBjork "SBjork" (Carlsbad, CA): I am not giving this phone 5-stars because it's the best phone ever. I am rating based on the value for the money. This phone is for my son since he had an older feature (basic) phone that finally died. This Galaxy 5360 is a Andriod Smartphone with WiFi and GPS. It is unlocked so it works on my AT&T network without a data plan. I have the HTC One X, a great phone; however, I cannot find anything that this Samsung Galaxy Y S5360 can't do that my 5 times more expensive phone does. It surfs the net, downloads apps and data, has GPS navigation, a camera, music, voice dialing, fast processor a newer OS (2.3.6 vs my OS 2.3.5.) messaging, video, music, etc. Sure it's smaller and lighter but better for him. It starts fast, long battery life, clear screen and works on any GSM network. I use AT&T 850 in California and he has no problems.

Armando Inquig "Mr. Mandy" (usa): A lot of newer generations of phones goes towards bigger screens, higher camera resolutions, and so much apps and functions on phones that I barely, if ever, use (iPhones and even those from the very same Samsung brand are biggest offenders of this). Well, I seem to be one of the forgotten consumers of mobile phones, because with all the bells and whistles phone manufacturers cram on phones these days, they seem to have forgotten that above all else, I just want to make a call on a phone that is, you know, mobile? Samsung Y is everything that I want from a phone: compact size, clear and clean interface that is very easy to use, solid build but very lightweight, and with all the features that you need from a phone (look, if I want a 10mp camera I'll buy a camera).

Alex Racho(CA, USA): It's been a few days that I've had this phone. This is my first personal Android phone, but I've previously used a Nokia touch screen. In short, I'm quite impressed with it. It's small in size and very handy. It synchronized with my Outlook info. It did have a few glitches, so please make sure you back-up your data first. Battery life is not so long, especially if you start using wi-fi, and mobile data or GPS. Also, the toggle buttons and the power button are easily pressed, so it often accidentaly gets depressed.

Lionel B(NY): When I connected it to my Windows XP computer (after installing Samsung Kies) it requested a bunch of drivers that Windows XP could not find anywhere on my computer or on the internet. It showed a few entries on Windows Device Manager screen with a warning mark. Somehow, after restarting the computer and reconnecting the phone, everything works fine and the entries on Windows Device Manager are gone.
