| Xsider's Full Review: Motorola StarTAC ST7762 Cell Phone |
I won this phone in a tournament and quickly activated it because it was suppose to be the "BEST" phone on the market a year ago. I still use the phone but used to have the Nokia 6100. I used that phone for 2 years before making the switch. It is easy to compare the two phones. If it is a small size and long battery life that attracts you to a phone, then this is the one for you... It is definitely a trendsetter. Nonetheless, I have not been impressed with the quality of sound that it produces. It often has a hazy, crackly sound when the battery dies down. Also, it lacks some features such as memos and games. For most of us, these things are not useful anyway, but nonetheless, this phone does not have these features. But the size and battery life (manufacturer's battery that is provided) are huge advantages. To end this commentary, there is one large disadvantage with this phone as compared to the 6100; it has only digital capabilities. For those city commuters, that is fine... If you attempt to use the phone between major cities, it may pose a problem... Like having no service. Some major cities like Reno and some areas of San Francisco also have areas of Analog only so the phone will not work.
