For a no-frills older phone, it's pretty great.<br /><br />Let me just say I got this to replace a lost phone in 2003, and six years later I still have it. I mostly kept it as a spare in case I lost or broke other phones--but now it's my main phone, and reliable as ever.<br /><br />The polyphonic ringtones that came with it are fun and easy to hear. I have never used U.S. Cellular's "easyedge" service, so I cannot comment on that, but for just-the-basics phone usage, this has stood the test of time.<br /><br />The display is easy to read, and the "animated" (barely) U.S. Cellular logo looks cool on it. What I like the most is how easy it is to put into "Etiquette Mode" (in theaters and libraries), and "Keyguard Mode" so that you don't accidentally dial your friends from your pocket! Just holding down "*" or "#" does it.<br /><br />Pros: Size and shape. Good volume and display. Durable and dependable.<br /><br />Cons: Tiny, close-together keys. Wish it help a charge longer.</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=245 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=245&r=11952#review11952 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=245&r=11952#review11952 Thu, 15 Sep 2005 17:49:53 GMT <p><i>Chadphone submitted this review of the Audiovox CDM-8400 / CDM-8410:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>3</b> (out of 5)</p><p>I get lots of compliments. I have to set it to vibrate and silence (but "on" so I can see who called) for different times at work, but the volume control takes it to vibrate only, which is the loudest vibrate ever in a quiet auditorium. Also, the phone is designed in a strange way that if you ever put it in your pocket without keyguard, it will probably buy stuff before you take it out again. I've lost 20$ that way in 8 months. Other than those, great 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=245 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=245&r=9700#review9700 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=245&r=9700#review9700 Wed, 11 May 2005 14:12:27 GMT <p><i>laddertothestarz submitted this review of the Audiovox CDM-8400 / CDM-8410:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>2.5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>I sell phones and thank god we don't sell these anymore because they always came back with problems and I hated seeing customer so upset, so if you can do yourself a favor stay away from this phone, a better model to use would be a nokia handheld phone.

The only problem I have had with them is the charging jacks, as long as you are careful with them, they do alright, (a lot better than my mother's motorola v60) if you are even a little rough with the 8410's charging jacks they tend to break and need to be re-soldered. The 8410 is a pretty rugged phone. (I have dropped mine thousands of times, ant the most that happens is you have to put the battery back in.) I have cellular one service through western wireless and I have noticed that the alltel 8410 can be reprogrammed for cellularone's service because it has a default SPC code of 000000 (6 0's), however The cellularone 8410 does not have the default code and can only be used with cellularone's service.</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=245 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=245&r=8631#review8631 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=245&r=8631#review8631 Wed, 02 Mar 2005 10:33:52 GMT <p><i>ajw2424 submitted this review of the Audiovox CDM-8400 / CDM-8410:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>4</b> (out of 5)</p><p>I picked up this phone because it was free with the contract and have been pleasently surprised.

It does everything I need it to do. Here are some of opinions: <br />1) The ringer volume is not the loudest around, and it MIGHT be a problem if the phone is trapped inside an insulated purse. However, the volume truly is audible, and I appreciate the fact that I can hear my phone ring without announcing it to the world. Concerning the earphone volume, I usually keep it at 1/3-1/2 of its total power, so I still have a lot of room to work.<br />2) The ringtones that come on the phone aren't necessarily the best in the world, but there is the option of downloading more.<br />3) There is music that plays when the phone is turned on and off that is a loud and a little cheesy, but that doesn't really hurt anyone--its not very long.<br />4) I had a bad LCD on the first phone I got, and had to trade it in. But every individual phone cannot be flawless.<br /><br />This phone is a huge improvement over the phone I used to have. I definately recommend it as a free phone (which it is for many plans). Heck, I might even have paid money for it.</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=245 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=245&r=5766#review5766 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=245&r=5766#review5766 Sat, 25 Sep 2004 01:10:20 GMT <p><i>AlexDDR submitted this review of the Audiovox CDM-8400 / CDM-8410:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>4</b> (out of 5)</p><p>Compre este telefono porque me encanto por su diseņo y el precio era bueno. La seņal es buena ningun problema en edificios he incluso he hablado en subterraneos aun sin barrita de seņal, los menus son bonitos animados, la calculadora facil de usar y cronometro correfluidamente. Los ringtone suenan fuerte comparados con muchos otros incluidos los intocables nokia. El altavoz suena un poco bajo. Pero lo mejor es lo intuitivo para usar y la facilidad para hecer llamadas y cambiar el volumen.<br /><br />Pros: bonito diseņo, moderno, menus rapidos e intuitivos y animados, buena seņal,facil acceder a contactos y grupos etc y tiene muchos campos de datos para agregar informacion del contacto y hasta una casilla extra para cualquier memo, facil escritura sms, buena sensacion del teclado, buena calidad de ringtones, el organizador y alarma, Siempre se esta a la hora con el reloj sincronizado( no es necesario ajustarlo lo obtiene de la red CDMA).<br /><br />Cons: no trae juegos ni screensavers (mi compaņia no tien BREW :( asi que no puedo agregar, en chile no vende el cable para usar bitpim), tampoco se pueden agregar ringtones (los que trae son suficientes para mi), la bateria promedio (5 dias stand by).<br /><br />un 4 solo por lo de BREW yo no tendria ningun problema en comprar un juego pero no lo tienen la competencia de mi compaņia si tiene BREW asi que un bUUUUUU !!! para mi compaņia.<br /><br />Este es un exelente telefono para quien no necesite juagar ni estar preocupado de los ringtone ni de bajar cosas asi que si alguien quiere cambia su antiguo telefono por uno moderno de buen aspecto este es ideal.</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=245 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=245&r=5688#review5688 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=245&r=5688#review5688 Sun, 19 Sep 2004 22:35:45 GMT <p><i>melanie22 submitted this review of the Audiovox CDM-8400 / CDM-8410:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>1.5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>I chose this phone because I loved how slim and light weight it was, as well as because it has speakerphone. But I have been nothing but disappointed since I've had it. I find it very hard to hear callers even with the volume up all the way and often have to use the ear bud to hear them clearly. Even the ringtones are very quiet, especially if you download them. I followed the directions on initial charging but havent been impressed with the battery life. Another problem I have is my phone echoing my voice. It is a problem with almost all calls reguardless of my signal strength.</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=245 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=245&r=5498#review5498 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=245&r=5498#review5498 Tue, 07 Sep 2004 20:21:51 GMT <p><i>mcpadre submitted this review of the Audiovox CDM-8400 / CDM-8410:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>2</b> (out of 5)</p><p>I sell Nextel, Sprint, and CellularOne. This particular phone has been a promotional item. 90% of my 8410 customers return to report some type of problem with this phone. Low volume, software issues, not honoring a rebate etc. I've found their customer solutions difficult to locate and have little regard for the end user. I prefer Sanyo, Motorola, Kyocera.</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=245 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=245&r=4485#review4485 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=245&r=4485#review4485 Sun, 27 Jun 2004 11:47:34 GMT <p><i>Spartan2006 submitted this review of the Audiovox CDM-8400 / CDM-8410:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>4.5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>I have owned the 8410 for over a month now. I have to say it is one of the best phones out there if you don't need a camera phone or a flip phone. The color screen is very clear and easy to read. The phone's reception is excellent as well. I have only experienced one dropped call when I was talking to my mother. It was her Motorolla V60x that dropped it. The only complaint that I have is that the ringer volume isn't loud enough, and it doesn't have any preinstalled games. But I bought the phone to chat, not to game so that's not a problem for me.</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=245 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=245&r=4268#review4268 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=245&r=4268#review4268 Wed, 02 Jun 2004 19:35:19 GMT <p><i>vibow submitted this review of the Audiovox CDM-8400 / CDM-8410:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>3</b> (out of 5)</p><p>This phone is ok for just having a phone and that is it's only major thing I can find wrong is that the ring tones suck and the volume. Incoming ring and ear piece volume is hard to hear.I have to give Nokia credit in this field because every Nokia I have owned has been loud. The color screen is hard to see outside.I really do think though that this is a problem with most color phones.</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=245 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=245&r=3902#review3902 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=245&r=3902#review3902 Sat, 10 Apr 2004 13:38:40 GMT <p><i>FlipMode submitted this review of the Audiovox CDM-8400 / CDM-8410:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>4.5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>This is seriously one of the best phones that Audiovox has put out in the past 3 years. It has great reception, an attractive display, a ton of features to choose from, decent battery life, and is very compact. If you have ALLTEL service and are not bound to a flip model, I highly recommend this phone. We have sold close 120 of these phones (since we received them) and have only about 9 returns. Most of the returns have been due to unreasonable customers or service area problems. That is a great return ratio. Two thumbs up!!</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=245 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=245&r=3717#review3717 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=245&r=3717#review3717 Tue, 16 Mar 2004 17:02:18 GMT <p><i>larrymonkey submitted this review of the Audiovox CDM-8400 / CDM-8410:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>3</b> (out of 5)</p><p>Finally a worthwhile Audiovox. It has been better than 3 years since the folks at Audiovox has put out a worthwhile phone. With the exception the unorthodox way of activating the speaker phone, I find the 8410 to be a pretty good phone over all. Also I feel that the ring volume could be a smidge higher. The size is just right for putting in the pocket. Unfortunately the key spacing and shape of the keys often causes mis-dialing. Otherwise this phone is very much worth the investment.....if you have small hands.</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=245 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=245&r=3481#review3481 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=245&r=3481#review3481 Tue, 17 Feb 2004 19:08:52 GMT <p><i>jdubvdub submitted this review of the Audiovox CDM-8400 / CDM-8410:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>4.5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>First color phone i've owned, and am impressed with the battery life.
