Using Ericssons KF788

by gary.cherner , Dec 20 '99
Pros: Very feature rich.
Cons: Wish it had more battery time
Switching from analog service to digital service was the best thing I ever have done. Call quality is much improved. Ericsson's KF788 has many features I have never seen available on any other cell phones like, Auto prefix, auto area code, editable...

The Pocket Rocket

by thefoyboy , Dec 11 '99
Pros: Size, fixed antenna, reception and clarity
Cons: Small keys, average talktime
This is now the 5th cell phone that our household has owned. This one caught our eyes for a number of reasons. The first was its compact and diminutive size. It can easily be put even in a shirt pocket or a little zip up purse for my wife. A second...

fairly decent

by jyoun79 , Mar 10 '00
Pros: small, convenient
Cons: poor reception
I got this phone almost a year ago in May 1999. Right now, PacBell probably offers it for free with a new contract. With a fully charged battery, it will probably go about 2 1/2 days. It's really small, one of the smallest phones Pac Bell offers, and...

Tiny & Rugged Phone

by jeremie , Sep 13 '99
Pros: Tiny, vibrating battery, quick charging, good sound quality
Cons: Bad phonebook interface
I find the Ericsson KF-788 / LX-788 (the AT&T PCS model I have) to be an excellent phone. The main reason that I purchased it was for the vibrating alert, the small size, and the increase ruggedness. I found that my Nokia 6160 was not able to take...

Cute and practical

by allyrae , Feb 13 '00
Pros: Small and compact

I bought the Ericsson KF 788 after having a Nokia cell phone for several years. I had lost the Nokia and had to replace it. I went to purchase another Nokia but ended up buying an Ericsson KF 788. I love this phone!!! It is light weight, small and fits...

Pocket-sized Wonder

by bigmisterc , Jul 24 '00
Pros: Small and compact with a silent alarm
Cons: Small Batteries and small buttons
I love my Ericsson because it is so incredible small and packed with features. I can easily carry it in my pocket and forget that I'm carrying it until it rings. Of course with its small size there are drawbacks. The buttons are tiny and you really have...

Right in your pocket!

by Ablatus , Dec 13 '99
Pros: SMALL, Vibrating ring, inexpensive
Cons: only a day and a half battery memory
My quest for an inexpensive, pocket sized cellular phone ended when I found the Ericsson 788. I was really looking for the Motorola Star-Tac but it was way too expensive for the digital/analog version. The Ericsson was small, had the vibrating feature...

the lemon

by johnnytheboy , Jan 23 '00
Pros: great look
Cons: you name it
what a fantastic little package, this small little parcel is something not to be reckoned with. Features such as call waiting, ringer details, menu design, divert data, fax and line, sms, speech to fax and so on. Little to people know how little...

A Swedish master piece

Pros: small, reliable, can take a direct hit, lots of features, laud and clear.
Cons: (Easy too lose)
Once again the Swedish company Ericsson has done it with a great small phone that has all the features you need for your everyday life.
If you are looking for quality and reliability than this is the phone for you.
You can store a lot of...

Dont Buy this KF788

by rumey , Jun 30 '02
Pros: 200 number memory Managed 3 consecutive calls during an emergency.
Cons: Many. Read the text
I bought this phone in 2001 May (with Mobitel Sri Lanka) and it is the worst phone I have ever used, and I've used a few.

The whole unit started malfunctioning and the company replaced the whole unit in Nov 2001. But they wouldnt replace the...

Ericsson nightmare

by mariahsaunt , Jan 26 '01
Pros: Compact size
Cons: Long connection time, unit gets hot.
After using the same brand of cellular for 3 years I decided to take the recommendation of my local Ericsson dealer and make the switch to an Ericsson. From day one, I had problems with the phone. It took an average of 2 minutes from the time I hit the...

Not Worth It

by DiannaEco , May 10 '01
Pros: Small and compact. Flip phone feature. Caller ID.
Cons: Poor battery time, ear area gets too hot, poor reception, flip phone disconnects calls.
I had to return my phone twice because the display kept going out. I'm having trouble with the phone again. This time it will not turn off and every time I try to answer a call the call is disconnected.

The ear area also gets extremely hot...

It works fine but...

by pennz , Mar 14 '01
Pros: Small, Never ending batteries,
Cons: it "get on fire" after some minutes
I do use it 50/50 for business and leisure.
It is small and always is flying right to the floor and crash.

The batteries are perfect. Since I bought it, it never stay turned off. I do recharge it by night and let it on.

A Swedish Beauty

by geddesn , May 04 '00
Pros: Design, Simple Functionality
Cons: None
Bought this phone from my CellOne dealer here in Boston. It's Swedish design roots are evident: Clean, functional, simple, sleek and beautiful. It really stands out from the cluttered, overdone, button-ridden Motorolla's and Nokia's I saw at the...

Great phone but...

by bennyucat , Apr 21 '00
Pros: Small size and weight
Cons: Battery & flip cover tend to fall off
I purchase this product mainly because of it's small size. I intended(and do so now) to carry it hanging from my belt the whole day.
It's a fine phone. But since it's exposed all the time, sometimes, when I bump onto a wall, door or whatever...
