 Bye Bye iphone July 9, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Okay- I am not a cell phone expert, but I must admit, this phone is nice. It's 100% better than the iphone. I read a review from a customer stating that she's waiting for the new iphone to come out and the tilt will hold her over- I would just like to say, I never want another iphone, I dealt with it for 11 months. It was appealing and the next new "it" in cell phones- but just could not do what I needed it to do for work.
Well- the tilt is a mini laptop and with the rebate and getting the phone for 74.00, I can't complain. I will suggest the phone to others. I had a hard time choosing between the tilt and blackberry but--- will see. Thanks to those who wrote efficient reviews with feedback, as I knew what to expect when I received my new cell
...bye bye iphone : )-
Phones Performs Well But It's Too Fragile July 8, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
My son got this phone from AT&T. He loved it...until the touch screen shattered when it was in his pocket and he was helping his Dad put a boat cover on our boat. He was devastated. He called HTC and they told him it would cost $198 to get a new one! HELLO. This phone was TWO weeks old. I had two Treos and dropped them on numerous occasions and they never broke. This phone seems to be geared to kids because it's too complicated for most adults to use (and it's ideal for texting...which they do). The manufacturer needs to make this phone tougher. I was watching my son and he was doing nothing extraordinary when it shattered. It's ridiculous. Beware if you want to buy this product. It's made too fragile and they don't back their product.
Good phone, but..... July 1, 2008

I just got this about two weeks, is pretty good actually.
The only complaint is the battery little bit suck!!! Really-really take long to charge it, about 3 hours and last maybe one hour if you use it a lot like I do use intenet or game for my daughter.
If the battery last longer, I could give 5 star. Sorry!
But the phone is good.
 Very Disappointing June 17, 2008

I spent a tremendous amount of time shopping for a "smart phone" - looking at reviews on amazon.com, cnet, consumer reports, etc...I had previously used a Blackberry 8600 series, which I loved, but was excited at the prospect of using the office mobile products, having the touch screen and the camera. I am not a genius, but I consider myself fairly tech savy.
Despite all of the research and trying out different phones in stores, I now find myself exactly where I did not want to be - tied into a two year contract and an expensive phone that is of very limited use.
Some of my problems with this phone, off the top of my head:
1. It moves really slow. I suspect that this is because it is bogged down with so much software (which i remember professional reviews mentioning too, but I ignored).
2. Everything seems to take at least four "clicks" on four different screens. For instance, if I want to get my email, even though I have it set to remember my passwords and log on every few minutes to check for updates and download all messages and attachments, I have to often first log on, wait for it to log in, wait for it to get headers, and then either tell it to get full message or sometimes it will get all the messages on its own. If one is reading an email it does not download internet pictures on its own. In order to get internet pictures you have to click on the button that says internet pics were not downloaded and then click on the next link that comes up that asks if you want to download the pictures now.
No, I just clicked on the first link for the heck of it, because I have nothing better to do than to validate the shortcomings of this electronic gizmo.
3. It is very hard to get a signal - the phone is so-so but for the internet (including getting email) 1/2 the time it is stalled out and I have to shut the thing off before I can start it again.
On the plus side, this phone got me so fed up with windows-based products that I bought a MacBook Pro last week. It is GREAT! Now I am just saving my pennies for when the new iPhone comes out.
 Great phone! June 16, 2008

I LOVE this phone! It is so much better than the iPhone! First of all, I can replace the battery with a fully charged battery whenever it gets low. (And I use my phone quite a bit!) I also love that I can link it to my satelite dish at home to watch HBO, Disney channel, along with all of the standard channels. Of course, that's one of the reasons I go through so much battery power! The full Office Suite also comes in handy. My laptop fried and all I had to work with was this phone. I was able to write, save and print out recipies, take pictures, surf the net, bid and pay on ebay, etc. I don't have to settle for a limited internet experience. I could do the regular text thing, but why when I can do my regular e-mail thing? I also really like that I can expand my memory with a memory chip. I save everything to the chip and then transfer the chip. It makes back-ups a breeze! And while others are having their cars broken into for their GPS units, my phone uses Google Maps and its internal GPS and it is always on me. No need to worry for my car! What a great device! As far as the bloatware installed by AT&T, there are people who can take care of that for you. I found a person on ebay who "pimped" my phone for a very reasonable fee and now everyone who sees it wants one!
