I lived in Lenoir, NC. Verizon was my carrier. I was working 3rd shift, my first night at work, when the phone exploded in my pocket. It caught me on fire, and my new co-workers had to rip my clothes off in front of everyone. I sued Kyocera and eventually took a settlement. I still have my burned phone as a souvenier. If you would like pictures, I will gladly email them to you. If you are looking into getting this phone this many years later, maybe it will be ok...but I would not risk it. A few days after me, phones of the same kind blew up all over the country. A girl in California's phone blew up as well in her back pocket. Actually, Kyocera representatives flew out to NC to look at my phone, my burned clothes, and the burns I had on me. I have scars to prove this story as well...and I may even still have the burned pieces of my clothes. Please, Please do not get this phone!</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=140 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=140&r=36996#review36996 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=140&r=36996#review36996 Wed, 19 May 2010 00:02:12 GMT <p><i>will4636 submitted this review of the Kyocera 2325:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>4</b> (out of 5)</p><p>And there are still some of us who want a basic phone that makes and receives phone calls and is not a blender, toaster and blow dryer, too.<br /><br />Sadly, I'm afraid mine may have just bitten the dust. A new battery doesn't do it this time. So I'm checking out whether it's the charger - and otherwise, I'm going to try to buy a refurbished model on Ebay because I want no obligation to a Wireless contract nor do I have the need for all the bells &amp; whistles.<br /><br />I'm bidding on one for 99 cents - and at the very least, it may help me eliminate the charger itself as the problem since this is a complete box including a charger.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=140 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=140&r=35957#review35957 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=140&r=35957#review35957 Wed, 23 Dec 2009 19:29:00 GMT <p><i>narn3049 submitted this review of the Kyocera 2325:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>1.5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>the phone lines up the screen and dialing out is slow.<br /><br />upgrade to something better like the jax and the alias. / much /? better</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=140 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=140&r=14586#review14586 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=140&r=14586#review14586 Wed, 18 Jan 2006 19:43:49 GMT <p><i>gmoney44 submitted this review of the Kyocera 2325:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>3.5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>I can't say I loved it, but it got me through as a replacement phone when my V60 got victimized by my 2yr old. I have since traded up(?) to the SOHO and found myself missing some of the feature that came with the 2325. <br /><br />Pros<br /><br />Size, weight, trimode, games, easy menu, speaker phone car charger.<br /><br />Cons<br /><br />phone is sometimes slick to hold onto, hard to find a clip to carry it on a belt, not a color screen. <br /><br />If your not into the bells and whistles of color screens, cameras or other stuff, this phone will do.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=140 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=140&r=13325#review13325 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=140&r=13325#review13325 Fri, 25 Nov 2005 04:18:00 GMT <p><i>got_it submitted this review of the Kyocera 2325:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>This phone I had when I was 11-13 and it never died. Like its a great phone. If you just needed to make calls and send text messages then this is the phone for you. You could probably get it off ebay for like 20.00 bucks.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=140 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=140&r=9130#review9130 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=140&r=9130#review9130 Sun, 03 Apr 2005 20:54:35 GMT <p><i>blumajik06 submitted this review of the Kyocera 2325:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>4.5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>Great first phone.

Its menu is so inuitive that I never opened the user manual. Programming menus are easy to follow and well laid out.<br /><br />The tonal quality is great. People generally couldn't tell that I was on a cell, even when traveling in the car, at the airport, or at home.<br /><br />Reception was high with very few instances of dropped calls. All features functioned well, even in extended areas. <br /><br />Love the distinctive ring tones that let me know whether the incoming call is personal or business or *gasp* roaming! When in "vibrate" mode it's strong and clear and hard to miss. In noisy crowds, the ring AND vibrate was sensational!<br /><br />I used the alarm clock on several occasions, and avoided obnoxious wake up calls when traveling. Calculator is always handy and I even played space invaders a couple of times ;) <br /><br />Great all around phone that's sturdy, lightweight, easy to read, easy to navigate. <br /><br />It's BEST feature is the ability for it to guage your background noise and adjust the volume accordingly, so one doesn't have to keep getting up and running outside to answer the phone in a busy crowded noisy place.<br /><br />Thumbs up to Kyocera/VZW for a great phone! Thank you!</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=140 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=140&r=6481#review6481 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=140&r=6481#review6481 Sun, 07 Nov 2004 00:19:56 GMT <p><i>terrainkeeper submitted this review of the Kyocera 2325:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>4.5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>This is perhaps the best mobile I've ever owned. Although not the coolest looking one on the market, its durability and call reception/quality has been fantastic. Use this phone on Verizon's network and you'll be spoiled. I've used this in my past basement apartment in the North Georgia mountains, to analog roaming in Lower Alabama, and I've never been dissapointed. Text messaging is superfast with T9, however after if the phone is set to save all incoming messages, it seems to always be running low on memory.<br /><br />Pros: Durable, very good call quality, excellent call reception, display can double as a flashlight :) <br /><br />Cons: With heavy usage, painted buttons will wear off revealing blue rubber buttons, antenna is easily bent, low memory for text storage.<br /><br />Highly Recommended.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=140 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=140&r=4420#review4420 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=140&r=4420#review4420 Mon, 21 Jun 2004 16:02:20 GMT <p><i>ajtish submitted this review of the Kyocera 2325:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>4.5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>I have had this phone for a little over a year now. As my title says i think that this is overall a great phone. It makes calls, and does text messages, basically all i need it to do.<br /><br />PROS:<br /> Great Battery Life<br /> Cool Blue screen<br /> Good Signal Reception<br /> Fairly Durable (Have only cracked the faceplate once, and have a crack in the main housing on the right side where the belt clip attaches)<br /><br />CONS:<br /> No Color Screen (Oh Well, the trade off for good battery life)<br /> Kyocera Customer Service is Aweful <br /> No Way to Buy Replacement Parts From Kyocera or Verizon<br /> No Changeable Face Plates<br /> <br /><br />As for others who are saying that it doesn't ring loud enough or vibrate hard enough i have not had too many problems. The only time i can't hear the ringer is when i am in my car listening to music loud, while i was at a party, and when i was in a very loud and crowded room for a conference. As for the vibrate function i have ALWAYS felt the thing vibrating in my pocket.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=140 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=140&r=4256#review4256 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=140&r=4256#review4256 Mon, 31 May 2004 10:04:28 GMT <p><i>cell_phone_red_eye_licker submitted this review of the Kyocera 2325:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>This is probably the best phone I have ever physically touched before....i would give it a perfect 10 out of 10......The vibrate feature tickles even the furthest to reach orifices of my body...</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=140 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=140&r=2573#review2573 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=140&r=2573#review2573 Mon, 13 Oct 2003 11:27:33 GMT <p><i>muchdrama submitted this review of the Kyocera 2325:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>4</b> (out of 5)</p><p>This is a fine, basic phone for the price. It has good voice quality and good reception on Verizon's network. A little bit of advice to the people grouching about the fact that this device has no speaker phone: all you had to do was read about the phone before you bought it. Duh.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=140
