My opinion on the Q

I've had the Q now for 10 days and I am returning it tonight with my 15 day trial time. I didn't even use it much a couple of days this week and it would be dead by 9pm (on at 7am). I'm talking literally about 15-20 minutes talk time and probably 15 times were I hit the side button to check the time. Now I understand that I should get the extended battery, but that defeats the purpose of the sleekness of the phone.

Now aside from its very poor battery life, I don't feel this is a very functional PHONE. It has a great browser and tons of features. Its great to have a phone from Verizon that is so customizable.

I have had my Q since day one... I bought the extra battery... and the car charger... I also bought the h700 blue tooth headset (on line)... nice thing about the h700 is the charger works with the phone too... so, I leave that one at work in case I need a little boost during the day... the extra batt. is in my breif case in case I get stuck and need a back up... and in the car I can keep the head set charged and plug in the phone once in a while if needed... THE Q IS GREAT... don't let battery life be your desiding factor, just be prepaired... this device is going to change the way you work and play 😎
