User Submitted Motorola Q Phone (Sprint) Reviews (cont...)Date: 2008-02-21 Bad Battery life ruins decent phone This phone kept on just shutting itself down at random times. I was told by the Sprint rep, they have had many power problems with this phone. I'm on my 3rd battery. You have to plug it up every night to charge or it will absolutely not have any juice the nexy day. I'm strongly disappointed with this phone!! Date: 2008-02-12 Great phone I got this phone about a year ago. I love the features and the service is great. Im not using it for work, more just for personal use. If you plan to spend a lot of time using the internet on it, I would suggest getting the extended battery for it. It nearly doubles your battery life. With the included battery if you might get only 4 hours if you were on the internet non stop. Date: 2008-01-28 Not a good choice This may have been a good phone but the battery life is insanely short. I can't even get a full day of use with this phone-having to make sure I plug in by 3pm. The email is cumbersome and now will not send. After 8 months of use I am in the market for a new phone, I would not recommend this phone to anyone! Date: 2007-12-28 Lucky....I guess Well, I think I am one of the lucky ones that still has their original Q after 7 months of service. I really haven't had to many problems with it. A couple of freezes here and there, but nothing that a battery removal can't help. The battery life on this phone is pathetic though. The fist month it was great, but now I have to charge it mid day if I know I will be home late or it will come up with the "Charge me I'm dying screen" (and that is with light use). As far as features go? Well, It has some. I would like to down load ring tones on to my phone. I like that I can make recordings and save them as ring tones using the voice recorder. I like the internet explorer and having the keyboard makes it easier to send e-mails. I don't think I would get another one like this though, Just because the battery is that bad and software from sprint is super expensive for it. I would like to see it with Windows Mobile 6. Sprint said there was going to be an upgrade soon. (But then again I notice that sprints customer service has been lacking in every aspect) So I don't think I will renew when the time comes up. If you decide to buy this phone, Good luck. But remember to read reviews from people who have had it more than a week. Date: 2007-12-19 Not what I thought it would be This phone was a real dissappointment. I thought I would be getting a computer/phone and it really turned out to be an expensive ok working phone. Every application I tried to use either wouldn't work at all or didn't work well enough to be worth using often. The OS is sooo slow and if you use anything besides the phone the battery will literally die in a matter of minutes. I dropped the phone and it cracked so I sent it back. The replacement phone they sent me had the wierd habit of pushing tons of keys at the same time and sending text messages on its own. Just buggy and lame. Its real flashy and people ask all the time about it and its really disappointing to me to have to tell people what a piece of garbage it is. This phone has turned me off of the whole smartphone thing and I think I will stick to the multimedia friendly phones(I am awaiting the LG Voyager at the moment). All in all, even for the few features on this phone which do work OK (internet is OK and ONLY OK) they are more or less useless unless you constantly have it hooked to a charger.
