| rickmar's Full Review: NEC G100E Cell Phone |
I have had this phone for over 2 years and it's quite the workhorse. Quite sturdy, I drop this thing quite often but it's still very solid. The buttons are backlit when you dial they keypad, it's nice to have this when dialing at night. Voice quality is good and the volume controls are in a very natural position. Standby time is pretty good on this phone, it can go for 2 days or so without a charge. Talk time power is lacking a bit, it can go dry in a 3 hours or so.
The things I don't like about this phone...
* Antenna - Damn thing is 2" long. Overall, that makes the phone nearly 7" inches in length. It really gets in the way. It's non-resilient rubber, if you bend it one way enough, it will stay that shape. You can imagine how stupid it looks to be talking on a cell phone with a 45 degree bent antenna. This bending also causes poor reception as well.
* The size and weight - It's heavy, you will notice it if you carry it in your pocket. It's 7" inches long, this makes it hard to find a place for.
