Sturdy, good performance

We bought one Casio-Hitachi G'zOne Type-V, model NX9200, as a replacement for a Motorola V60i, which was among the sturdiest cell phones available in 2002-2004. After 6 weeks of use, we found the NX9200 outshines the V60i in all respects and bought another. With release of a so-called "successor" Type-S, offering Bluetooth but otherwise inferior specs, Verizon is selling the Type-V for $100 with a 2-year contract. At that price it is a bargain.

The V60i featured a thin aluminum shell and solid aluminum hinge brackets, while the NX9200 has a solid magnesium shell with a full width solid metal hinge. It is shock-resistant and water-resistant to 1 meter, provided the battery and antenna are secure and the two port plugs are in place.

The talk time is rated about 3.5 hours, and standby battery life is variously rated at up to 400 hours. In an urban setting we are getting about a week of battery life with occasional brief usage. Reception is better than the V60i, and sound quality is good. When calling from an area with strong signal, people we talk with cannot tell we are using a cell phone.

Although the NX9200 has many features, so far we use only the stored contact list. Although slightly less convenient than the V60i, it provides multiple numbers for each contact. A drawback of the Casio-Hitachi cell phones released in the U.S. is lack of accessories. Although UTStarcom was supposed to act as a U.S. marketer, so far this company has done little to help.

Gave up on it...

I loved the idea of a Verizon phone that could withstand the vigors of daily use. I was tired of replacing phones due to scratched or broken cases and screens. This phone looked promising. After shelling out 295.00 to be one of the 1st users I was amazed it dropped in price so fast. I was not impressed by the fact that with all the phones having Bluetooth this phone did not offer that feature. I also noticed that within the 1st three weeks of use the battery life dropped dramatically. I can barely use it a couple hours before i have to charge it and the phone offers about a couple minutes warning before it shuts off. In addition, the phone was constantly freezing up, requireing me to pull the battery out to reboot. This got tiresome after a half dozen times a day. Within a month of owning the phone it finally froze so many times I called custer service. They suggested *228 option 2 to refresh my programming. Having done this it sent the phone into a total reboot and i lost ALL my contacts. Too bad I didn't buy into the 1.99 mo charge to save them (Extremely pissed). After getting this phone replaced in June the new phone is experiencing the same problem and this one shut down completely. (This time i spent the $$ to to a backup) Cell reception was not too bad, phone is rugged but when it doesn't work, no bluetooth and the battery is worthless it is time to move on. I would not recommend this phone to anyone (and I am sorry to say a friend of mine bought one after seeing mine). The new version came out with bluetooth and i may get this one tonight. I will post an update on the new phone. Good Luck.
