High quality, rugged, basic dual-mode mobile phone

by jsquarejj Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Nov 14 '00
Pros: Great user interface, long battery life, rugged
Cons: A bit bulky, not web enabled
The Sony CM-M1300 is a high quality, rugged, easy to use, dual-mode (analog and CDMA digital) mobile phone. I've had mine for about two years, and it still looks and works like new. It's a basic phone without internet support.

I don't know...

Feature-rich, but bulky

by DougAlexander , Sep 30 '99
Pros: Great usability, dual-mode, long battery life
Cons: Large size
I've had my Sony CM-M1300 since Christmas of '98, and overall it has been a very reliable, useful phone. The screen is large, backlit, and easy to read with four LCD text lines, which could be useful if you are signed up for digital paging service. The...

It still gets the job done!

by chambemd , Mar 09 '01
Pros: Still working, easy to use, reliable
Cons: Large and heavy, no vibrate setting
My family recently got a cell phone stolen, so I dug this one out of the closet and got it re-activated. Sure, its almost 2 years old (with about 1-1/2 years of heavy use), but the phone works almost as well as it did when we first got it activated....

takes a lickin' and keeps on tickin'

by quasistatic , Oct 27 '99
Pros: small, lightweight, durable
Cons: loose battery, hard to hit buttons
I've had my Sony phone for over a year now and I've used and abused it. I carry it everywhere and don't pay quite enough attention to where I put it. It's taken several falls from nearly 6 feet, but this thing is rock solid. I haven't had one single...

Decent Phone, Not Great

by bgurley , Aug 29 '99
Pros: PCS, great search, sturdy buttons
Cons: Case cracks, no ear jack, discontinued
I have been using the dual mode 1201 for about a year now.

Strengths:
1) Good rate plan (Sprint PCS).
2) Dual mode support is a nice way to deal with lack of full PCS coverage.
3) The spinning knob is great for looking up...

Did I hear..Easy to use...?

by TheOpinionGuy , Dec 11 '99
Pros: Key-Pad lock, features
Cons: Jog-Dial
SONY CM-M1300
This is a poor excuse for a good cellular phone. If it was modified it would be a great phone. Right off the bat the HORRIBLE thing about it is the Jog-Dial, It will litterally drive you crazy. The jog-dial is so confusing to use....

Great phone

by rscaramelo , Sep 30 '00
Pros: Great clear connections & the "jog-dial"
Cons: none
I just reactivated my Sony cm-m1300 phones. I had been convinced by a salesperson to "upgrade" to Nokia 5180. What a piece of junk!!!! My calls were constantly being dropped. Apparently my town is still behind the times and is mainly analog....

Solid phone

by gheuer , Sep 16 '99
Pros: Dual Band, Long battery life, Tough
Cons: Larger than newer phones
Good solid phone. I got it because it was dual band (digital clarity when I'm in range, but I can use it anywhere) and long battery life (I can leave it on for 3 days and it won't die on me). I've found it to be a solid straightforward phone. I've had...

Reliable cell

by mikibee , Aug 04 '01
Pros: Easy interface, reliable
Cons: Bulky, loose jog-dial
I first got this phone when my Nokia was stolen over 2 years ago, and Verizon didn't offer a Nokia in my area. When I first got it, I was a little taken aback by the weight and bulk of it, but after seeing how easy it was to navigate, I really fell in...

Good value, small annoyances.

by mplamann , Oct 13 '99
Pros: small, compact, light weight
Cons: accidental dialing easy to do, side wheel button wearing out
I bought my Sony CM-M3300 phone because it was one of the specials PrimeCo was offering at the time I decided to buy a cellular phone. It is a dual-mode phone, meaning it will operate on both analog and digital cell networks.

The sound clarity...

We're gonna miss ya', old gal

by imgoingcrazy , Jun 30 '04
Pros: A durable workhorse.
Cons: Bulky.
You've served us well for nearly four years now, 'ole Sony. Your batteries seemed never to die; you were built like iron. Even today, you stand ready to receive and send calls with the best of them. Only the fickle preferences of a fourteen-year-old...

My first digital phone

by mdbrown , Mar 17 '02
Pros: Good size, nice display, excellent ergonomics, reliable
Cons: No internet, mediocre battery life
I bought this back in 1998 as a pre-paid sprint pcs phone. I wasn't overly impressed with sprint but I loved the phone. The thumbwheel made navigation a breeze. I have yet to find a phone that's quite this simple to run through all the features. The...

Good phone but has gotchas

by rg1 , Oct 07 '99
Pros: Good user interface, good sound quality, good phone book
Cons: big, gets very hot, proprietary headset jack
I had used this phone (dual mode version) for just over a year before I switched to a Motorola StarTac (dual-mode). This phone is a little large but has very good sound and the wheel on the left of the phone really makes using it very nice. It has a...
