For Use in the City Only

by garypai , Dec 01 '99
Pros: Size, great LCD display, Smart Keys, Li-Ion battery
Cons: Single band (PCS) - only works if you are on the Sprint network
At least, that's what it should say on the packaging, because this phone will do you no good if you are not always on the Sprint PCS network, which tends to only cover the major cities. However, you have no idea how many hours I spent researching cell...

The Phonewiz breaks down the StarTac 7762

by brad_cantrill Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Feb 10 '00
Pros: CDMA chip, improved reception, size,
Cons: still lacks the crystal clear reception of a high end Nokia
For years I've been fascinated by the sleek body style of the Motorola wireless phone, but all suffered from similar problems. Poor sound and poor range. Well, finally Motorola has produced a product that is worthy of the pricetag, the Startac 7762.

Motorola Star-Trash

by help4u , Jun 20 '01
Pros: Small size, very light.
Cons: Terrible battery life, poor quality construction and reception.
I used Motorola phones from 1993-1996. I've owned all types from the DPC 555 to the Motorola Elite, but that was because at that time there we very few alternative options. Motorola was generally the only phone which offered a flip and the vibrating...

Small, Powerful, Functional

by gkao , Mar 30 '00
Pros: Portable, functional, intuitive, powerful, durable, nation-wide, price
Cons: Smaller buttons
These are the words that I use to describe this phone. It truly is a gem. I've been using it for over 3 months now, and it really is the best phone I've ever owned. (i've had over 5 cell phones) Here's a little summary:

StarTac is classic, but has quirks.

by deuce_bigalow , Feb 20 '01
Pros: Small, lightweight, good battery life
Cons: Archaic design, some bad features, not customizable or stylish...
Well, I decided to get a StarTac due to its small size and a good rate plan that went with it. I wasn't disappointed on any of these points, but I did learn to find a few quirks I developed in everyday usage of this phone. First of all, this phone is...

Great Buy

by sasha111 , Nov 17 '99
Pros: light, no noise
Cons: expensive
Before purchasing this phone I also was using Sprint PCS network but with a different phone which was about 10 times heavier than my new StarTAC. The noise on this phone is minimal due to the fact that Sprint's network is constantly expanding. I have...

WARNING! READ THIS BEFORE BUYING THE STARTAC!

by eju , Apr 14 '00
Pros: size; battery life
Cons: awkward interface; flimsy antenna
Thinking about buying a Startac? Consider these points:

(1) The Size: There is no question that the size and shape of the Startac make it one of the handiest, most pocketable phones on the market today. Compared to the Nokia 6100-series, the...

FUNCTIONAL *and* COOL-LOOKIN'

by afshop , Jul 12 '00
Pros: design, size, functionality
Cons: none
I really love my STARTAC phone for several reasons:

First of all the battery lasts a very long time. I try to charge it every night while I sleep, but the few times that I have forgotten, it always makes it through the next day for me, and I...

It's always in my pocket when I need it

by hweaver , Oct 19 '99
Pros: Fits your pocket, good speed dial, full featured
Cons: Type is small, phone is expensive
After reading the epinions here a month ago, I dumped my clunky old Qualcom digital phone and got a StarTAC 7762, and I have been happy for the trade ever since.

I'm not an especially intensive cell-phone user, so all you real estate agents...

Fun and Functional!

by jaccettola , Jan 27 '00
Pros: small, light, compact, easy to use
Cons: hard to edit the phone numbers in the address book
I got my StarTac at Radio Shack October 1999 for $199. Finding the right plan was more important to me than choosing a phone. My boyfriend had bought a StarTac over a year earlier (he paid about $300) - I finally decided on Sprint because they have a...

Good Size, Bad Quality

by Xsider , May 11 '00
Pros: Size, Battery Life, Trendsetting
Cons: Sound Quality, Digital only, Lacks features
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....

Digital Is The New Way

by dhprophet , Jan 25 '00
Pros: very small and compact. Has many good features.
Cons: Just digital can bea drag right now until they update all cellsites.
I have had a Sprint PCS StarTac for a while. The one I purchased is just in digital, which was a big mistake because digital is not everywhere. I wish I had waited a little loner and got the duel band StarTac. I do get great service it is just...

How Sweet it is

by stevie_w , Dec 16 '99
Pros: size,functions
Cons: small buttons
The first thing I thought of when I purchased the digital Star Tac was, is it going to hold up. I have had two other Star Tac's before this one and this is definetly the best. The face of the phone is very easy to read, although the numbers could...
