Almost, but Not Quite

27 Aug 2008 Aaron L

I had this phone for a week and already returned it. This was my first smart phone and I was hoping for a little more. I have played with an iPhone and this phone didn't come close, but I am not going to ATT because their coverage is awful in our area.


I am only going to point out the negatives since these are the reasons I ultimately returned the phone.


- Signal strength was terrible versus my previous phone (Motorola Razr)


- If you don't use the stylus, you'll be selecting a lot things you didn't want to


- Set up an outside e-mail accout and when mail was in my mailbox I did not get a notification. The rep at the cell company duplicated the exact same thing and he could not explain why it was happening. The only was you get a notification is if the phone is in standby mode.


- Clumsy navigation for getting a contact to dial out.


- Did I mention that the signal strength was terrible?


- Sucks battery like there is no tomorrow if using it for web browsing


- You have to lock the screen to prevent random inputs


- Even set at the loudest ring, it could have been louder still.


 


When you pay $350 for a phone you would expect to have at least the same type of service that you did before, if not better. I did not get that with this phone. The phone is pretty cool looking and I enjoyed getting on the Internet, but for what I paid and what I was paying a month, it was hard to justify in my mind.

I've had this phone for about 4 months and I'm now selling it on ebay b/c I'm getting the BB Curve!

I think it's with all WINDOWS COMPATIBLE phones, they FREEZE. I have reset my PDA 3 to 4 times a day and I don't even have 3rd party prgrm or a loaded SD card inserted.

It's nerve recking. Sometimes if I'm typing a text..it goes SO SLOW.

I"m aggravated and so I decided to sell this phone on ebay.

With the updated ROM (6.1), I will admit that it MOST DEFINTIELY Improved the Battery life TREMENDOUSLY. Without a doubt.

The sprint TV is so AWESOME too.

Um...but I've had my share of TOUCHSCREEN PHONES. I don't like them anymore.

It just sucks. I"ve had my share with WIndows Compatible phones PERIOD. Time for something new...A BB. I hope I have luck with that.

BYE BYE HTC & Mr. Mogul.

HTC Mogul - post 6.1 upgade

I shared the same opinions as most of you: constant freezing, short battery life, forced to soft reset 2-3 times daily just to keep the some type of functionality and generally having second thoughts about having made this purchase UNTIL I upgraded to Windows Mobile 6.1 update.

Upgrades the operating system from Windows Mobile® 6.0 Professional to Windows Mobile® 6.1 Professional
Adds Sprint TV
Includes all enhancements incorporated in previous software upgrades including:
EV-DO Rev. A functionality for faster download and upload speeds when utilizing data services wherever EV-DO Rev. A coverage is available.
Advanced GPS functionality including the Sprint Navigation application.
Adds a Task Manager to the Today screen for easier access and management of running programs.
My device has not frozen up since the upgrade about a week ago.
Batter life seemed improved... Hummmm
