Pros: size, shape, caller id, voicemail, voice activated dialing, sound quality
Cons: You cannot talk on this phone while it is charging in its base.

My girlfriend and I were discussing our husbands' success with their cellular phones just last night. It seems that her husband has already crushed two of his cellular phones by sitting on them in the car. My beloved husband drove his car off while the...

Pros: Compact, Durable, Cool Green Color, Rubber Buttons, Easy to Read
Cons: Broke When Dunked in Toilet

Imagine my dismay to find my favorite cell phone sunk in the bottom of the porcelain God. With a 2 1/2 year old in the house I find a multitude of object dunked like a donut in coffee and this one was probably the most upsetting. Even my honed bowl...

Pros: Light, Good Battery Life, Easy to Use
Cons: Several...

OK, let me explain myself. I did not own this phone, but my mother did, and I spent some time using it.

The phone came out of a big bulky package. It was the Summer of '01, and my mother got sick and tired of "Pay-as-you-go" phones. She...

Pros: reception, features, weight, phonebook, battery life
Cons: voice dialing & speakerphone, color choice, size, wireless web

I've owned my touchpoint about a year. It's a good phone, but in my opinion it could have been a lot better. The phone is full of features like games (football, blackjack, dice, memory), a calculator, voice activated dialing, a very good phonebook that...

Pros: Everything
Cons: The Color Choice

Ok, so maybe the saying is sliced bread, but sliced milk gets your attention a little better.

The Sprint PCS Dual Band Touchpoint 2200

Sprint has done it again. Sprint PCS has their Touchpoint model phones made just for...

Pros: voicemail indicator, phone book, speakerphone, web-enabled, variety of ringers...
Cons: none..yet

Oh how I do love cell phones. I've owned many, mostly Nokia, but recently I switched to Sprint and by doing so, had to buy a SPRINT PCS phone. While there was a nice, large variety of phones to choose from, I was instantly drawn to the Sprint PCS...

Pros: Great phone book,Great Reception,Size, Voicedialing,Battery life
Cons: Speakerphone

Hey, I've never done a review, so I hope this is a good one. Anyhow, I've had my TP2200 for about two weeks now and I really love it. It's such a cute little phone with alot of great features.

I've gone through a good deal of sprint phones...

Pros: Battery Life Small Size Large Display 4 Digit Call
Cons: Speakerphone Voice Dialing

Let me start by saying I have had this phone for 3 weeks now and it is a great phone. It is small, cool looking and lightweight, everything you would expect from a newer model phone.
I have been a Sprint PCS customer for 3 years and I bought this...

Pros: Great battery life, Call quality is A1, Not terribly expensive
Cons: Speakerphone takes getting used to, but still alright

I have finally decided to go out and get a new phone. After the faithful service of my Samsung 2000, I've decided to upgrade to the Touchpoint 2200. This is a great phone! The battery life is unreal, I got the phone almost a week ago, and I have yet...

Pros: A phone you can trust for its functionality and construction
Cons: Understated

Pros: Easy navigation, speakerphone, large display, battery life
Cons: Size

I previously owned a Samsung 8500, but that got lost. I think it fell out of my pocket in a cab, and I couldn't find it despite trying to call the phone and call the cab company. So I was on the market for a new phone. I had to stick with Sprint PCS...

Pros: Speakerphone, Clarity, Easy-to-use interface, and Features
Cons: Reception, reception ... did I mention, RECEPTION?

I currently have two plans (yes, two plans) one for Verizon (which I use a TM510) and Sprint PCS. I owned a Touchpoint 2200 for a few days before taking it back in exchange for a Samsung 8500.

Why I Picked This Phone Initially
...

Pros: Light, Long Battery Life, Bells and Whistles
Cons: Voice quality patchy, Web service very patchy

Oh I have resisted getting a cell phone for so long. Just another awful yuppie trapping - who wants the office to be able to get hold of you at all hours?

But the life of a travelling consultant made getting one mandatory, and Sprint seemed to...

Pros: Advanced address book, easy menu navigation, lots of features for the price
Cons: Reception terrible

I bought this phone based on the great advanced features it included for a reasonable price compared to other phones with similar features. Phone is also pretty highly rated by other Epinion members. On first use at home it was immediately obvious that...

Pros: Features, quality made, features
Cons: Pricey

After selling Sprint PCS phones, and other companies cell phones for 7 months, I pretty much know what's good and what's bad. This is good. Very good. I went with Sprint because of the crystal clear calling you get from them, everyone who talks on this...

Pros: GREAT QUALITY/BATTERY/EXTRA'S
Cons: SPEAKERPHONE SHOULD BE REMOVED

This phone is just about the best phone they can possibly make. There are very few things if anything that I dislike about the phone.

Call Quality
This phone has great call quality. I have been in movie theatres, malls, my house, my...

Pros: Small size Many features
Cons: Web feature not usable at this point keypad not protected = calls from pocket

Like everyone in Northern California, I was caught up in the wireless web frenzy of late 2000. And, after a trip to Tokyo seeing hundreds of teenagers working the little buttons on their phones to send instant messages to their friends, I figured I...

Pros: Battery, styling, size, just about everything.
Cons: No talkie on base, voice command somewhat interprative, leather case = dumb.

I purchased this phone form Best Buy, under the Sony's special 'Here's a hundred dollars, for no good reason" offer. So, I paid $150, got a $100 back, and a $50 gift certificate from Best Buy, yay!
This is an excellent phone, I've heard of...

Pros: Comfortable size, good voice quality
Cons: Poor Voice dialing Doesn't sync. Poor microbrowser Poor support

I bought my Touchpoint 2200 back in October after talking extensively with a Sprint rep about the features. I also bought the Dual Sync station for the phone.

Complaint 1:

When it all arrived, I found that there was no software for...

Pros: many advanced features, multi-entry phonebook, voice dialing, calendar/PIM, large screen
Cons: less-than-perfect reception, larger size/weight than many phones

Sprint Touchpoint 2200 (made by Denso Wireless)


The Sprint PCS 2200 is a generally well-designed and full-featured phone. The styling is attractive and contemporary; it’s a rounded, curvy shape, a dark green color, with rubber...

Pros: Small, long battery life, lots of features.
Cons: Voice activation not always reliable, awkward to hold.

This is a great phone. It has features that I didn't think I'd use but I do now. Voice activated dialing, the speakerphone, programmable rings, the tools (i.e. calculator), and even the games were just extras at first. Now I can't imagine going...

Pros: Overall good design
Cons: Still can not turn off Caller ID

I just bought 2 of these phones.

Sprint and Qualcomm just about got the cellular phone design correct. I have had several different phones over the past few years and this is the best I have used so far.

Most of the features are...

Pros: Small size, clear reception, so easy to use-my technology impaired dad can operate it.
Cons: no downloadable ringers

My TP2200 was my very first cell phone. I am still using this phone. I keep searching for a new phone...simply for a change...but I havent found one that compares with mine.

Its very easy to use...and with so many different features. ...

Pros: Huge Display, Rugged, Super Battery Life, T9 Text Recognition, Packed with Features
Cons: Only works with SprintPCS, A bit pricey but worth it

*** UPDATE - Oct 20, 2001 ***

Last I checked, you can now get this phone for around $129.00. You have no excuse now...definitely well worth it...!!

*** END UPDATE ***

For anyone who must have the latest and greatest...

Pros: Tons of great features!
Cons: Not as powerful as other SprintPCS phones

This is one of the newest and most fully featured products in the SprintPCS lineup. The cool, and sometimes very useful goodies that this phone comes equipped with make this a fun phone to own.
My now ex-manager, who is definitely a...

Pros: Long battery life, great speakerphone, great phone book features, great size, weight and feel
Cons: Sprint only

This phone is so old now that it's hardly worth reviewing. You can get it on eBay for practically nothing and accessories are getting harder to find. Forget about buying accessories in the store for it. I bought this phone in probably late 1999 or ...

Pros: Read above!
Cons: Older phone so therefore it does not have a color display screen.

This phone was way ahead of its time when I first received it almost 5 yrs ago!!! It's now considered a bit antiquated in terms of style and design, but I would still be using this phone if it were not for the service provider... 50% of my calls were ...

Pros: excellent range of features, and It's Fun!
Cons: Sprint PCS system is overloaded

The Sprint PCS Touchpoint 2200 phone is a beauty. For a gadget lover, it is especially nice. The phone is excellent with the voice recognition and internet browsing.

Though I have had recent problems in retrieving Yahoo email using the cell...

Pros: This phone is very reliable and the voice features are fun to play with.
Cons: The only thing negative I can say is that the games are horribly silly.

I recently found the Touchpoint 2200 on sale at Radio Shack for $49.99. I had seen this phone many times before for a much higher price, about three times that. I was interested in the built-in speaker phone option, and the large display. Prior to...

Pros: many features,large screen, small, lightwieght,
Cons: expensive

Ive had touchpoint 2200 for the past 6 months and I have yet to have any problems with the phone(I cannot say the same with sprint's billing but that is another story...) The TP2200 is just the right size in my opinion I dont like flip phones to much and...

Pros: Size, handling, large screen, games, voice dialing, scheduler, phone book
Cons: Sometimes signal could be better

Let me preface this buy saying I am a compulsive researcher before making any major electronic purchases. The fact that I needed two phones as my wife was expecting a baby only solidified this fact. After reading consumer reports, epinions, scouring...

Pros: Speakerphone, large screen, top quality
Cons: Smaller phones available, the screen scratches easily.

I bought this phone after the local laws changed and required that you use some form of a hands-free device. I tried the thing in the ear and hated it. Driving around with something in your ear wasn't for me. I saw the 2200 and fell in love with the...

Pros: Color, new smaller size, very loud ringer,strong vibrating battery longest
Cons: None

This has got to be the best phone I have ever used. It is a total difference in comparing it to the old touch-point. This new phone has features upon features. Speaker phone is great and you can leave messages with the built in recorder. The ringer is...

Pros: full featured including speaker phone
Cons: poor reception compared to similar phones

In September 2000 I finally gave in a purchased my first cell phone. I picked this phone because I like the features such as speaker phone, voice dialing, and the memo recorder. I considered a Sanyo with similar features and a catchy skin, but this...

Pros: Large Screen, easy to navigate with one finger(or should I say your thumb)
Cons: No swivel belt clip made for it. Have to get generic stick on.

I've had a Samsung 3500(don't buy), A Motorola Startac(got rid of), and now this one in 1 year. So far I really like this phone. You don't see everybody with this bad boy so you feel unique. It's easy to use and packed full of features. You can...

Pros: Features, Size
Cons: Poor Speakerphone Quality, Erratic functionality

I recently purchased the 2200 after having the 120, which is the best Sprint PCS phone I have ever owned (I have had Sprint PCS for 3 years). I love the features but here are my issues with the phone:

1. It sporadically turns off during use,...

Pros: large LCD display Crystal Clear Reception all over the United States.
Cons: Only 1 color (Teal). Expensive Speakerphone feature needs work Voice recognition needs work

I have tried several different phones and nothing comes close to the consistent clear reception I get with the Touchpoint 2200. I use Sprint PCS as my service provider and they are really one of the best services I have ever used. The phone does have...

Pros: Best reception along with clarity, durability for high usage users.
Cons: A little on the larger side compared with many new phones

This is perhaps the best mobile phone that I have ever purchased. It is by far Sprint's best phone as it has the maximum range and voice clarity for a Sprint phone. Another feature that separates this phone from others is that it is quite durable, able...

Pros: Long battery life, light, easy to use, free after rebate.
Cons: Sometimes goes into roam in big buildings. Rubber piece protecting the handsfree broke off.

Had the phone for more that three years now. Battery still holding up very well. Pleased with the ...

Pros: Compact and easy access buttons
Cons: Signal is so poor, gives me a headache

This phone has pretty much most of the good features and it is light, easy to use, big display and battery stays long, but the only problem is the signal. Can't use it in poor signal areas. When I put my three sprint phones together, I can see the...

Pros: Battery life, size, voice dialer
Cons: Speaker phone, lack of third party accessories

This is my third mobile phone and first from Sprint. I am very happy with the phone. It has great reception, it's easy to use and the battery life is great. I bought the phone because of the speaker phone and voice dialing. The speaker phone can use...

Pros: Small, lightweight, and easy to use. Good battery life
Cons: Very poor signal strength, no support for new ring tones. Speakerphone stinks!!!

This phone is not all that it's cut out to be. First of all, the signal meter goes up and down light a sea-saw.

Second, I had bought this phone new last year and 2 months later while on vacation, the phone literally "deprogrammed itself" and...

Pros: QUALITY construction, COMPACT, OUTSTANDING PHONEBOOK.. User Friendly PERIOD
Cons: Speakerphone & Wireless Web Message needs improvement..

My Samsung SCH-1000 was on its last dying breath (3.5 yrs of use)...and it was time to upgrade... AFTER reading all the reviews, ratings and playing around with the latest phones.. I narrowed my search to the TOUCHPOINT 2200 and the SANYO 4500.. IF...

Pros: Great features, small package
Cons: not many accessories

This is a great little phone. I have used a Samsung SCH3500, but this phone is a much nicer phone. It feels better (personal preference), the phone book is nicer, and information is accessed much easier. One of the main things that kept me from using...

Pros: Versitility
Cons: No Flip

I have been a Sprint customer for quite some time, I have had many phones with their service and when this phone came along I just had to have it.
I was a loyal Star-Tac user and when I saw this phone and tested it at a local Sprint Office I was...

Pros: Small, lightweight, excellent battery life.
Cons: No type of covering over the numbers.

I am a SprintPCS reseller for Circuit City, and have been through at least 5 Sprint phones. I absolutely adore this phone. It has every feature I've wanted in a cell phone, and the weight / battery life is amazing. The main reason I purchased this...

Pros: good voice control
Cons: bad software .lousy speakerphone.no seperate controls for vibrate or ring volume (without adjusting the same time the listening volume

I wanted some safety features like voice activation and a speaker to replace my startac..........but its better in terms of reception in other words it works when the Motorola didnt but the speaker phone is real old technology and is a one way speaker in...

Pros: Wonderful Interface, elegant and easy to use
Cons: The most important thing-reception-is poor

I carried the TP100 for 2.5 years and loved it. I also think that the 2200 may be the best phone on the market. Unfortunately, after using it for 7 days, I have come to realize that it just plain does not work in places that my TP100 did. I am going...

Pros: Many,Many,features. Too many to name.
Cons: None.

I have had nothing but a good experience with the Touchpoint 2200. It's small enough where you can place it in the palm of your hand but yet big enough to not just lose it and not know. The features are great including my favorite, the recordable...

Pros: Works Great, Crystal Clear Sound, TONS of options
Cons: too many options, do they know when enough is enough?

Talk about a great phone, after previous phones that I have had, I can't complain about this one. There are so many things that it does, I don't know where to start. The sound is GREAT. I love the options of personalizing your ringer. It has volume...

Pros: Sleek design. It has everything you could ever want in a PCS phone.
Cons: Should of made it come in several colors along with the teal.

Well, the only way to truly see how wonderful this phone is, is to go check it out at your nearest retailer. It's amazing the amount of features they packed into it. Speakerphone, Voice command, Phone book, Wireless Internet. Easy menus to follow,...

Pros: Good battery life, nice size, Looks Different
Cons: Looks different...not much else!

At first I didn't want to buy this phone because the only reason I needed a new one was because the old one got lost...but soon after I got it, I couldn't believe I didn't buy it sooner! It sort of has love it or hate it style. There aren't any color...
