Me personally I didn't care for this phone at all. I really enjoy BB & BBM but this purticuler phone functionality isn't the best

My device stopped working not long after I bought it. I contacted the company and no one ever contacted me back. It didn't work long enough for me to receive any calls. I threw it away. Sorry.

I've had this phone for about 90 days and have had no problems with it, I get at least 6 hours TALK TIME, and quality is fine (I'm AIO (AT&T;)). I would suggest doing the updates through Zune as so as you get it, because they made a marked improvement.

I purchased this phone just after it's release in 2011 and had this phone for almost 4 years. It's great for media use and gaming as well as playing music will be no problem however as with all smart phones of this generation the battery life is not good (especially if using the bowser or streaming) and you will need to keep extra batteries or an extended battery handy for extended use when away from a was all charger.

Hello, I bought this phone for my husband who is a real phone "buff" and wanted the BlackBerry 'Storm', but that was a mistake. It did not function well at all even though it was not a cheap phone it malfunctioned after just 2 months. It's not worth the hype. Not a good phone at all. Sorry for the bad report but I wished someone had warned me. KHz_Baha

PBRC530 is number on the battery. It is probably 7 years old. Looks like a smaller skinnier version of a Blackberry. Hope that helps.

I have mine a few months, and it works just fine. I had returned one from another company, that cost twice as much as this one, got a full refund, and purchased the Joy. If it lasts a year, it will be well worth the small cost. If any problems develop, such as your problem, I'll simply order another one. I suggest that you call the company. Amazon can give you their phone No. if you don't have it. I'm sure they will tell you what to do, or even send you a new one if within the warranty period.

Unless you buy directly from blackberry or from a wireless carrier there is virtually no warranty on a BlackBerry phone. Blackberry only deals with carriers and will not deal with the end users unless it has sold the product directly to the customer. I found that out when my BlackBerry failed and I could not get AT&T; support even though it was an AT&T; phone I had bought through Amazon from a third-party seller.

I had this phone for 3 years. Just moved to a Samsung galaxy s4 and love it. PANTECH did lose battery quickly and keyboard letters wore off. Hard to see photos too. Still loved it. Go with this one.

My previous one (same model), lasted more than 10 years, and I did NOT take particularly good care of it. Here's an excerpt from my review:"2003 - early 2014: This Marathon 8AM-U1R lasted over 10 years and was still working when I replaced it (with the same model) in February 2014, mostly just for peace of mind!"

We've had the phones for about 2 years now and haven't had problems related to the batteries. Seems like they last quite a while when talking for extended amounts of time on the phone. I've never had one quit while using them.

Actually I bought 2 of these phones and both broke after a couple months. The phone itself is not good. The condition it is in is just fine though.
