for the BlackBerry Bold 9000:Completely Super
This phone eclipses my previous favorite phone, the Blackberry Curve. It's completely fantastic. Because of the great performance, I will not take off points for the few cons - large size, some small software instabilities that I'm sure will soon be fixed. Holds a signal quite well, battery life is great, keyboard may as well be on a computer ... I'm very satisfied.

for the Sharp Sidekick iD:Sidekick iD Gets a "B"
I would like to preface my review by stating that I will not take off points for what the Sidekick iD does not have (camera, bluetooth, EDGE, etc) because it's not fair to dock a phone for features that it intentionally does not have. Therefore, I will review it "as is". The long and short version: The Sidekick iD, in my opinion, holds a signal better than the Sidekick 3 and is a great phone for anyone who lives ...

for the Motorola RAZR V3m:Exceeds Expectations
I was expecting to give this phone a C+ overall... it was an act of desperation purchase - I used the Worry Free Guarantee to return the Chocolate and pick this gem up. I have to admit that I chose it because it's pink. I was pleasantly surprised. Reception: B+ Aesthetic Design: A Build Quality: B+ Practicality of Design: B+ Battery Life: C Camera Quality: B+ Ringer Quality: A- Vibrate: A- Charge Time: A Bluetooth Headset Pairing: A Keypad: A Interface: B+ Overall: B+

for the LG VX-8500 Chocolate:Somewhat Pleasantly Surprised
When I first was looking at this phone, I saw a Wall Street Journal review that was not favorable. I liked the phone for its sex appeal but wasn't sure I'd trust it as a piece of hardware or to make calls and certainly not as a music player. I knew I had 15 days to make a decision, so I decided I'd take the plunge. At first, I was displeased with the touch pad - I figured I'd be ...

for the Nokia 6235i / 6236i:This One Is a Keeper
This review has been truncated from my MUCH longer review that will be posted elsewhere. Please excuse the lack of detail due to PS.com limitations. Style The 6236i is a very attractive LITTLE phone. Nice size. Build Quality Despite its size, this phone is SOLID. Very solid, in fact. Standard wonderful Nokia build. Reception It doesn't show as many bars as my E815 did, but I definitely gets equal reception. In fact, there is any static at all. No complaints, ESPECIALLY for a CDMA phone ...

for the Motorola E815 / E816 Hollywood:Nice Work, Motorola
I like the E815. I just got it yesterday, and I usually wouldn't review a phone this quickly, but it's fabulous. I have yet to use the VCAST because where I am, the service isn't available. Reception: A Features: A Design: A- Internal Display: A+ External Display: B Speaker Phone: A+ Voice Commands: A Software: A- Camera: B- Bluetooth: A- Overall: A- The screen really is gorgeous. Totally gorgeous. And the external is good, but I don't like the fact that you can't have different pictures inside and out, it's uniform. ...

for the Samsung SCH-A670:Average for the Price
The Samsung SCH-A670 is a good phone. There are some things that it should have for the price - like more storage and the ability to send videos therefore making it a true VIDEO PHONE. PROS Good camera - better than the LG VX7000 or Mot V710 Crisp clear screen User-friendly menus Nice GUI in general Good sound quality Get It Now Nice, easy to press keys NEUTRALS Phone is not particularly attractive on the outside, but it's not ugly Fair battery life CONS Not compatible with Mobile IM This phone REALLY ...

for the Samsung SCH-N330:Very Impressed
I read the mixed reviews of the Samsung SCH-n330 and I was wary about buying it. I resolved to spend no less than ten minutes testing it out in the Verizon store and I fell in love with it. So did my Mom, so I even ended up paying more for it because she used her one-year contract promo price and I paid retail - but that's okay because this phone is worth the money. It's a cute but not ...

for the Audiovox CDM-9500 / Toshiba CDM9500:Marginal at best, in its time
I am not a big fan of this phone, as I was plagued with owning it for nearly two years before I replaced it with my LG VX 7000. Pros: Color Screen Voice Dial Speaker phone And that's about it.... Cons: Extremely POOR battery life with standard battery Fairly poor battery life with extended battery Ugly and unstylish Horrible green backlit keypad is uncomfortable to touch Heavy Bulky Charges slowly Battery indicator inaccurate Hard to retrieve numbers/names with system No exciting features Get It Now was outdated on this phone THEN... oh boy I kid you not, ...

for the LG VX-7000:Shall we say, A minus?
This is an excellent phone that sometimes doesn't get enough credit or attention for being what it is; a great PHONE with a marginal camera and decent battery life. Originally, this phone had battery concerns, so Verizon released the black edition of the phone which is the model I am reviewing. This has an 1100 mAH battery as opposed to the 950 included with the original VX 7000. Pros: Very good battery life Crisp internal display, large Picture ID's and downloadable ringers Picture messaging Text ...
