Is the Q right for someone who wants a good phone, an easy calendar and e-mail? Would it be worth getting a Q for those things?

I think one of the better points someone said in comparing the Treo and the Q was this: The Q is a phone first, PDA second. Vice versa for the Treo. I own the Q, and I love the feature set, and if used correctly, it can take care of your calendar and appointments. However, I did buy a 3rd party program (Papyrus) to manage my contacts, which isn't a big deal except it gave me more options and views in dealing with appointments.

I believe you do. Most of these features are included in your phone package already. Call your phone company to get the straight scoop on it. /Erik

It's really just a Quick Start guide. I haven't tried downloading anything from their site. I agree with Greg, though, that the phone is relatively simple to deal with. I didn't end up using it on my most recent overseas trip (and I do not use it here in the States), so I can't comment on its use. It seems like a great pick, though, for international travel, which is why I bought it.

I cannot compare with the LG as I never used the LG, but I did like the Samsung T404G for most things. As a phone it's perfectly fine. They slide out keyboard tends to be stiff and not respond to every press, though, so it's not great for texting, but it's not terrible either. Camera on the Samsung is so-so for a phone of its class.

A couple of reviews commented about the texting functionality not meeting their expectation - too slow or one even said he effectively could not use it to send texts (no detail provided). Given that there is also a great many comments about Peek continually improving the service, has the texting functionality improved? Thinking about getting my 13 yo his first cell phone, but this might be a more functional (QWERTY keyboard) and less expensive solution especially given how text-heavy teens are.

Yes, it's got quite a good answering machine. Surprisingly, considering all the hype about volume controls and equalizer, the telephone sound quality is not that great. In fact it's less than adequate.

I also had the Q2 in fact I owned 2 or 3 of them, dog ate one, etc. they perform the same functions. In fact the Q3 performs them better. You will appreciate the upgrade. Important: Do a firmware upgrade on it before you start using it, gt help from Blue Ant if you need it, else just follow the directions. But yes listening the music and any other function your Q2 performed works well on the Q3.

Not sure, I don't use it for email or anything web related. There are web functions so I would assume you can get email from wherever but I don't use that feature so I can't verify. This kind of phone, while it CAN do those things, is not at all like a smart phone. That's why I wanted it. Sounds like you may prefer a smart phone if you want to do email

i do not know google has great phone help for buying questions just call them. BUT I have a 4 and can not say how much I like it. I got a 5 expecting the same quality NO WAY. It feels cheap, the "New improved" camera does not stop trying to focus there was absolutely nothing that was an improvement over the 4. I sent the thing back to google in 2 days. I am a google commercial converted from apple. I also need unlocked phone I am a convert from Verizon to Straight Talk other smartest thing I ever did.

Yes, as a basic phone with GSM radios, it should provide you with basic services just to get around. Personally, I'd get a smartphone, but this is affordable for me.

It is a much lighter phone......also you can not remove the battery. Since the phone is much lighter it does not feel as durable as a Q10. Speaking as some one who currently owns both I prefer the Q10.

Yes. This phone is very basic and jittery. It's ok for a first phone or for a kid but it certainly isn't smart. The internet capabilities are below average and the phone has a couple of glitches and is very small so you cannot watch videos very well. Hope this helps. If your looking for something thin with a bigger screen to watch videos, play games, listen to music and surf the internet, this isn't the phone for you!

This is a good phone released. Use normal SIM. Depending on the operator and coverage you will connect well to send all mail navigation whatsapp pin etc. For wifi is excellent

Qaulity is great. There is even a closeup button that zooms in very well! I ise mine almost daily ;-)

Thanks for your reply. If it stays at $19.95, no need for a Blackberry unless you want internet access on your phone. Sounds interesting at that price per month.

I think so. I am 66 and kinda tech savvy but not really. I used it and liked it for phone, text and voice mail. It is inexpensive and mine was very reliable. I had different models for about 6 years.
