| abutov's Full Review: Motorola StarTAC ST7760 CDMA / AMPS Cellular Phone |
I wanted to place this hunk of junk under a table leg to even things out, but was afraid it would somehow devalue the table.
I initially bought this craze item phone because I was in the market for a cellular phone, and I was able to get one for a cheap price...about $120.00 New. Initially, I was very proud of having one of these nifty little things considering the fact that my last phone was the size of a small buick. The sound quality was average to mediocre, but I attributed that more to the service than to the phone...after all - DIGITAL???!!!!...
After the boom of these things where one couldn't go outside without hearing and seeing the exact clone of your nifty little item, I decided that the phone itself, wasn't really worth the money since it didn't really provide any outstanding features that cheaper phones do not.
Then the fun began. The battery started loosing its charge quicker than when initially bought even though it was initially charged properly. This behaviour was picked up and copied by my girl-friends' identicle motorola. After that, the phone started loosing its cohesion of sorts, and began to crack at the joining of the flip between the control panel and the ear piece. After a few weeks, this behaviour as well was duplicated in my girl-friends' phone.
Making a very annnoying and long story short, it now lies under my bed in four (4) pieces. Naturally broken apart I might add. My girlfriends' phone is BARELY working but only after being put together by a blob of super glue. A procedure to which I dedicate most of my recent shame.
Do not buy this thing...there are PLENTY of cheaper phones that are just as small and just as cute...even more so since recent phones are customizeable.
