Pros: Battery life, reception, perfect size (for me, at least), & rubberized coating for easy grip
Cons: Menu system can be improved

I've owned quite a few cell phones in my life. Just to give you an idea, I've owned a Motorola, Pioneer, Mitsubishi, Nokia, Ericsson, Samsung, Sony, and even an Audiovox cell phone. I picked up the Panasonic DuraMax because one of my friends had good...

Pros: Durability & small size
Cons: gets warm when using, no built in belt clip

**Don't try this at home!**

While I was at work recently, I was throwing some trash into the huge compactor we have. After about 10 minutes, I realized that my cell phone was missing. As I looked all over the store for it, I figured...

Pros: Strong and durable
Cons: Speakerphone unusable, no advanced features, form factor uncomfortable for long use, chicklet keys.

Awhile back I made the decision to change wireless providers to AT&T Wireless, a mistake I recently remedied. One of the first things I found with them was that their choice of phones for their TDMA network is rather suspect. In fact, they have no phones...

Pros: Rubberised Coating, Extended Battery life compared to TX210
Cons: Menu isin't easy like Nokia's

Exactly! A GIJOE action figure with a Kungfu grip. Well lets say that this phone would serve GIJOE very well.

I haven't written a phone review in some time, mainly because I've been busy, and because there hasn't been any new additions to...

Pros: Sleek and handsome looks, nicely rubberized, dual back-lighting
Cons: Some menu features are quirky

Background

I've owned various cell-phones in the past starting with a Nokia analog (I forget the model number), then a Nokia 5188 Digital, A Sanyo SCP5000, and then finally, this Panasonic EB-TX220.

When I was deciding which...

Pros: Battery life, reception, durability, solid keys
Cons: Speakerphone, limited accessories

When my wife and I signed up for a family share plan with AT&T, we were presented with an array of phones to choose from. We chose to buy two DuraMax phones for because it met a combination of features we were looking for: sturdy and durable,...

Pros: extremely rugged, good contact functionality, messaging
Cons: gets warm during use, terrible keys, no extra ringtones

I've owned a lot of phones over the past 10 years, and of course, they get better and better over time. I thought that the Nokia 6160 was the best phone yet, until one of my co-workers came in with the DuraMax. Once he told me about it shock-absorption...

Pros: Light weight, durable casing, easy to use and most of all reception
Cons: perhaps the tiny keys but not a real issue for me.

My little Nokia was about 2 years old and ready for user-assisted suicide. I called up AT&T wireless and was offered the Duramax phone for $120 and a $50 credit to my account on top of that. The only catch was renewing my service for a year; big deal!...

Pros: Great phone, durable, speaker phone
Cons: Absolutely nothing!

Once again, let me introduce myself. I am the Store Manager of a local Cell Phone company and I really hope my opinion on this product helps you make a decision.

When the Panasonic DuraMax first came out, I got to field test it. One word came...

Pros: Small, handsome, light easy to use and program, lots, and lots of features.
Cons: Ringtones, I want programmable ring tones! :)

Duramax by Panasonic is a great little cellphone, using the word little losely ofcourse, by today's standards this one is much bigger than sone of those tiny Nokias but way smaller than the Nextel or the older Qualcomms. This phone has it all, everything...

Pros: *Rugged Rubberized Grip *Water-Resistant *Shock-Resistant *Recessed Screen & Buttons
Cons: *Small, Hard Buttons *Quirky Phonebook Navigation *Some Reception Drops

Upon having the need to replace my defunct NOKIA 6100 series phone (due to the fact that after a year the battery had very little life left), I dropped into my local AT&T wireless store here in south Florida. They had a display with the PANASONIC...

Pros: Small size, GREAT battery life, built-in vibrate function, dual illumination, intuitive memory approach.
Cons: No Internet browser, display most definitely NOT for the visually challenged.

I've had this phone for 1 month now an have to say that I am VERY impressed with the features of this phone!

First, when programming the phone I was able to enter in multiple numbers for one name. This is a major advantage for me since I may...

Pros: Extremely durable--military specs.
Cons: Accessories and parts are hard to come by.

I have used this phone for a year now. When I first bought it last year, it was even more obscure than it is now (3/02). I picked it because I wanted something that was going to be very durable. Something just shy of being built like a tank. I read...

Pros: Battery Life, Durability, Phone book (the way it stores entries), Display light, sound clarity
Cons: Speakerphone not loud enough to be used outdoors or in a car

I would like to add to the reviews in this section, saying that I am generally in agreement with the opinions presented on the phone thus far. I purchased this phone 1 month ago and have used it in Los Angeles, New York, and Las Vegas, and have found...

Pros: Almost unbreakable, just the right size, rubberized grip, excellent LCD display
Cons: Speakerphone doesn't turn up loud enough and gets garbled.

I bought this phone in May of 2001 through AT&T and am sorry to say I have to retire it this month (Aug. 2004) because of a company policy on which carrier I can use. I bought because a Verizon cellphone tower installer said it is the only phone he ...
