Not that I’d ever buy another Kyocera product, just curious, Kyocera has a press release out saying they released a new phone on Verizon, available today. Link as follows:

This phone not on VZW site, and I never noticed it discussed in this forum. What is this thing?

Worst phone I’ve ever has personal experience with was the Kyocera slider phone popular a few years ago. I’ve gotten better quality products out of gumball machines.

See, I think it was junk too, but I got it from my girlfriend when it first came out and she used it for about 2 years then I had to pry it out of her hands when I got her a new one, she still thinks its the best phone she ever had

Women must be very loyal to their phones, my wife is the same way. I keep trying to upgrade her from her VX6000, but after a few days with a new phone she insists on going back. The difference is that while the 6000 may be a little outdated, it is still a great phone.

I fought with VZW to replace it with a different model after the first replacement in kind didn’t work. I finally got my way but that battle turned me from a blindly loyal Verizon fan into just another customer. Probably left my account screen with some nasty comments on it.

Those came out not too long after I got started in the indirect world of VZW. Store I was at, at that time....we only had them for a week. Realized they were crap, and refused to sell them anymore. Worst phone i've seen since the SE47 Slider...... Audiovox CDM-180. That phone was a pile of dog crap. We sold ONE, and customer went thru 4 fru's then we got him into a much much much MUCH better model.

worst verizon phones of all time

1 Moto 260, 265/276 - awful little phone, its either the charge port thats messed up or the phone just doesnt work
2 aud 8910, 8600 - green light of death, nuff said
3 moto 720/730 - charge port pos, sw pos
4 moto v710/e815 - charge port, white screen, charge port, unable to charge, freezes every 8 minutes, charge port
5 v3 razr - crappy buggy software, each sw update makes the phone less user friendly, water damage magnet
6 lg 3200/3300 pray to god yours works

I have never had any problem with the E815's. Just the fact that they get better reception (useable reception) than any other Verizon phone is a reason enough for me to keep buying them from Ebay or directly from Motorola.
