dturne25's review of the Kyocera Hydro XTRM (GSM)

original version, submitted Mar 2, 2015, 11:18 AM:

Jack of all apps

I like this phone. the prime reason is because it is shockproof, waterproof and one can have it in his or her back pants pocket without cracking the screen (my wife has done this with phones in front and back pockets in the past more than twice) if they should sit down. My wife saw my phone and had me buy her one too. One day while sitting in the tub and serfing Facebook, she dropped her phone in the water and screened. Without missing a beat, I toweled it dry with no negative effects to the device whatsoever. Moving large files over Bluetooth could be faster. Sometimes the phone sounds like "the matrix" if you know what I mean, on occasion. Using phone's earpiece could be clearer. I usually use the hands free feature while driving or speaker phone with no problems. I only had 4 apps that didn't work with this phone, period. Anything I would do on a desktop or laptop (like word processing, or spreadsheets) I can usually do on this phone with no issues at all. Hey, its no $400.00 or $500.00 phone, but it gets the job done. I paid $99.00 each for my hydros and consider it money well spent.
