Kyocera QCP 2035a Cell Phone

Pros: Good reception, good battery life.
Cons: Poor durability & menus can be difficult

The Kyrocera 2035 (same as the 2027) is a newer that has been put out within the past few months.

The phone itself is a dual band phone (allowing you to pick up a digital signal and an analog signal). This is a great feature to have, just in...

Pros: lightweight & small, seems relatively sturdy, good sound, lots of features
Cons: not very cool-looking

I didn't want a cell phone. I think they're aggravating and dumb, and the last thing in the world I want or need to is be any more readily-accessible than I already am. The thought of being hounded by my phone when I'm out in my garden, or away from my...

Pros: Dual band, easy to use
Cons: could be more attractive

I bought this phone for my husband on the Sprint PCS free and clear plan 1500 minutes for $34.99 a month. As soon as I got it home I took it out, began charging the battery, and playing with it. I got it with an employee discount for $19.49, so I couldnt...

Pros: Small without being too small, features, Lithium Battery, internet
Cons: Features (read Internet) require extra fees.

I've had my Kyocera (Qualcomm) QCP-2035a for a year now and its been a great purchase. I go to college in the middle of nowhere and I have to drive through the heart of the Adirondack mountains to get here and to get home to Albany. Four years ago when...

Pros: Excellent battery life as well as good reception and clarity.
Cons: Antenna is kind of flimsy, doesn't look as cool as my Star-tac.

I first came into contact with the Kyocera 2035 when my Star-Tac had to go into the shop. They didn't have any Star-tacs to give me as a loaner so I was stuck with the less than cool looking 2035. At first I didn't care for the phone. I was used to...

Pros: Exceptional clarity, great features, lightweight, changeable faceplates
Cons: The cross navigational key in the middle is ugly and the send and end buttons are weird shades of red and green

For anyone interested in a cheap web-enabled phone this is definetly the way to go. I picked this one up at my work a few days ago and I have just been blown away at the many features this phone has to offer.
We all know that the popularity of...

Pros: Clear reception, light weight, and you're able to change the banner.
Cons: Accessing voice mail is bothersome, and there's a small selection of ring tones.

The first test that I performed on the cell phone was the comfortness of pressing the buttons, which is probably one of the most important aspects of a cell phone. I chose the Kyocera QCP 2035a over the free phone that came with the plan because when...

Pros: Lithium Ion Battery, Contact Manager, Handy Tools.
Cons: None that I can find....

I am really surprised at the quality of this phone. That is a lot coming from me. I thought I would never be happy with anything other than a Motorola or Nokia cellphone.

I have always had a cellular telephone since about 1991. Over the years...

Pros: Powerful, clear, many options
Cons: Harder to use than nokia

I received my qualcomm qcp 2035a for free, as my old nokia would not function on the verizon network properly if I left Kansas City. The old nokia, (I don't know the number, it was one of the cheap cookie cutter ones that everyone has) would not pick up...

Pros: Light, "web-enabled", email, universal headset, nice timers/alarms
Cons: Costly accessories, phone can't run from adapter alone, awkward user-interface

The first week I had the phone was a honeymoon. It did everything I wanted. It worked great in the car, at work, and at home. I could surf the web at lunch, get emails in the car, and send text messages to my wife’s older Qualcomm phone. The battery...

Pros: A multitude of features, interchangeable colorful face plate options, Dual Band & Great Price
Cons: Flimsy antenna

I went into SprintPCS to get a new cell phone as I had lost my old one. I had my heart sent on getting one of the flip phones because my purpose was to have a phone with me in the event of emergencies while on the road somewhere that had a protective...

Pros: easy, small, nice looking phone
Cons: missing good PIM features.

I'm a wireless web developer, so when I looked for a phone to purchase, I paid very close attention to navigation and usability of the phone, including the web browser. I researched many different phones, and it seemed that the navigation of the 2035 was...

Pros: Small, light, tons of features, sounds great
Cons: flimsy antenna

I'd been using a Nokia 252 for the last year, but since it's analog only, I upgraded to a digital phone this year. I only had 3 to pick from that went with the nationwide coverage plan I was looking for: Motorola Talkabout, Motorola StarTac, and the...

Pros: Great signal.
Cons: Minor things like cheap antenna, average battery life, confusing menu setup and an occasional echo.

I've had an opportunity to use this phone in a number of locations and I've almost always gotten a clear signal. In the past, I've owned Motorola, Nokia and Ericsson cell phones. I'd estimate that 50-75% of the time I could get a clear signal with...

Pros: Nice features, vibrate alert, stores 200 contacts including snail& email addresses
Cons: Surprisingly poor battery life even in digital mode.

Cool features: 200 contacts including addresses is nice. Available Connectivity (see web address at end) kit lets you load/edit contacts from your PC and lets you use the phone as a CDMA wireless fax/modem.

The interface has its pluses and...
