| lfinato's Full Review: Audiovox 9155GPX Cell Phone |
Got this one from VZW to replace my 2nd ailing LG510. Read good things about it and liked the advertised feature set (especially the speaker phone idea).
Overall I was impressed with the voice quality (at least when it could get a signal). It was crisp and VERY clear. The speaker phone was quite nice but ONLY in a VERY quiet environment. In a car or with the slightest background noise totally useless. The display while very informative has VERY poor contrast and VERY small text and is extremely difficult to read (especially compared to the LG 510 and the Nokia 3285 I own.
Voice recognition was very good and accurate unlike the LG. Another annoying trait is very poor ringer volume and selection, and poor vibrate performance.
I really expected SOOOO much better especially knowing it came from Toshiba and their reputation for quality products.
Battery life seemed ok but I didn't keep the phone long enough to truly "test it".
