Got this phone today. It rocks! Well made, full qwerty keyboard easy to use and read (for those over 40!), flexible enough to customize to your desire. Biggest thing which is never mentioned is the Dynamic Noise Suppression that is automatically used on both incoming and outgoing call signals. Voices are very clear and distinct and sound great. I researched at least a dozen phones before choosing this one, and am totally satisfied.
I have this phone, and I've had it for about 9 months or so, it was amazing, and I loved it, definitely a favorite phone of all time. Until about a month ago. It started telling me that my messages were full and I'd have to delete messages, but I only had like 50 messages in my inbox. Then, today, it told me my inbox was full, so I deleted all of my messages and went to message someone, and it told me it was still full. I had no messages in my inbox or anywhere.
I have the phone and it is great, it has a capacitive touch screen not resistive, it is really sensitive to touch, to get the home screen to slide you have to do a quick motion not from the screens walls. It is very nice and most of the things he said are not a problem at all!!!
Thanks but thats how you get to it. When you get to it on the option menu you can just delete,bluetooth, copy, move, or create new folder. Im trying to use the music on it as a ring tune.
I have had my' ease' for two years and just got around to adding what at&t calls messaging. For those who want a simple phone with the ability to text occasionally I can't think of a better device. As long as you are in an area which gets good reception this phone is perfect...Sorry Apple.
@ak472daface take electric tape and wrap it around the battery it helps cuz it reduces how much the battery moves, and when it does it will shut off i had this problem with my lg neon that should fix it
there is a front camera on it i can see it to but i dont knownhow to usebit to me this a good phone i text easeyer with it and when if im goin down the road i can tell it what to type by talking to it i would definatetly pick this over a laser the ease helps me three alot the only thing i dont like about it is that u cant record no more than 30sec on vidio
yah that happened to mine when i first got it i fugured out that that happens when you close or open the keyboard to hard but it should go away by the 3rd month you have it
@TheHappyFace2000 the Impact has a really good QWERTY pad on it...the buttons are fairly big and easy to use, which is my favorite thing about it...its not a really hi-tech phone, but its still good. The touchscreen on the front tho is really annoying...sometimes unresponsive and either too sensitive or not sensitive enough...the only thing that bothered me was that tocuhscreen on the front...other than that, it has an amazing QWERTY board
Omg i just got the ease for my bday and it is AwESOMEE!!! has a big keyboard, simple and easy for messaging and awesomme . this is a pphone that can last a while like 1-2 years . laser sucks dont get it get the ease!!(:
My aunt had this phone. She had a pink case for it. However she dropped it down 5 sets of stairs and cracked the screen along with the end button getting damaged. She had it for 6 years, now she has the IPhone SE (2016)
My Aunt still uses the 2016 iPhone SE in 2022. She doesn’t want to let go of it and the battery sucks lol. Any good recommendations for phones I can buy her? She got the SE (2016) when it first came out.
how does youtube or other video work on it? can you get a quality picture without a lot of buffering. Can you stream Pandora or di.fm or other internet radio?
Ok, I know this isn't an instruction video but I have a question about the usage of the micro sd. I got the ease and bought a micro sd and put the things I want within it and everything but how do I use it? I mean, I can get to it and play the music I have, but how do I use as an ring tune and have my pics as a wallpaper?
@huff337 you dont need to buy data but if u accidentally use it, then u have to pay one cent per kb. I dont have data for it so i just told the guy at AT&T to block the internet so i dont accidentally use it.
this sucks. I had a pantech laser and it broke (was in the hospital, nurses kept dropping it when it was charging on the table) so my insurance sent me this as a replacement because they don't sell the lasers anymore. The ONLY thing I like about this is putting it on "elderly mode" and having it read my funny texts my friends send me, lol. its freaking heavy too, and very thick compared to my other phone :(
Been using this phone for a month. I really hate the battery life; 3-4 hours talk, less if you have the brightness all the way up and playing with it a lot. Charging sometimes twice daily is a real p.i.t.a! No headphone jack you need bluetooth. Camera takes decent brightly lit still shots up to 1600X1200, but terrible in low light or when moving the camera because of the shutter speed. Video camera playback is low-res & becomes quite pixelated. Great little phone aside from those gripes..
Mine will randomly stop sending messages until you restart it. Also, just recently it started to shut down on its own whenever I try to open the pictures.
When he tried to switch the screen at 1:22, you have to touch it twice so it knows your turning the screen, its like a mouse, you have to click twice for it to respond. Or you can just press harder than needed and soon enough you'll ruin the phone... Your choice.
Just got the phone today. Its a nice phone but it shut off on me a few times when I was using it. I charged it and it said the battery was fully charged so I don't believe it was the battery. I was just texting and it shut off on me completely. Not sure why. Any one else have that issue?
getting it today yay

@Trailmixorz 1. There is no onscreen keyboard. 2. If you enable advanced mode, threaded text messaging will be activated.
i was almost about to get the laser for my upgrade. i am so glad i checked reviews first!
@52Devil actually it is a capacitive touchscreen, the difference is the way they are made and this is definitely capacitive and it is really sensitive

@1K2D3J go to ur menu, then slide it till u find settings, when ur on settings go to phone mode nd there u can change it

Keyboard is great, so is the responsive screen, went to AT&T today. Would gear twords the Pantech Laser though.
@musicvideosismylife Yes you can. It is called the "lock screen" in settings under display.
I got this phone 2 days ago and is AWWSUUUMMM!!!
I just got the ease on on saturday.
Great phone!!!
You can have it on easy or advanced and ppl told me the pursuit isnt good.
Neither have wifi.

I got this phone yesterday. its pretty good so far.
@comedyforideots its a little sensor that detects if ur ear is there and turns off the screen
Thanks but thats how you get to it. When you get to it on the option menu you can just delete,bluetooth, copy, move, or create new folder. Im trying to use the music on it as a ring tune.

Good review. Much better than the other guy on phonearena that sounds like a lifeless robot.
@TheHappyFace2000 the Impact has a really good QWERTY pad on it...the buttons are fairly big and easy to use, which is my favorite thing about it...its not a really hi-tech phone, but its still good.

If this at&t phone is unlocked I can use my strait talk sim card in it so I can use it through strait talk?
I have this phone and i love it. The only thing i don't like is the battery life.
@Sk8terGirl353 its not a camera its a senseor to turn of the screen while ur on a call
the pantech matrix has a micro sd card slot too
Omg i just got the ease for my bday and it is AwESOMEE!!! has a big keyboard, simple and easy for messaging and awesomme . this is a pphone that can last a while like 1-2 years . laser sucks dont get it get the ease!!(:

@seanmstringer So, Which One Would You Recommend. Pursuit Or Ease?
how does youtube or other video work on it? can you get a quality picture without a lot of buffering. Can you stream Pandora or di.fm or other internet radio?
good looking phone
@TammyGarilo does it have text conversations? like does it show previous texts on the same page where your texting?
i almost got dat phone but i got da lg neon instead im gonna get dat one or another one next time
Ok, I know this isn't an instruction video but I have a question about the usage of the micro sd. I got the ease and bought a micro sd and put the things I want within it and everything but how do I use it? I mean, I can get to it and play the music I have, but how do I use as an ring tune and have my pics as a wallpaper?
jsut turn on the advanced mode if you want a good phone.
2 questions: Is the on screen keyboard responsive or almost impossible to use? Does this phone have threaded text messaging?
i have it what is the thing that is on the left hand side on the top
can we record or own ringtone? like when you record audio, can u set that an the ringtone?
@huff337 you dont need to buy data but if u accidentally use it, then u have to pay one cent per kb. I dont have data for it so i just told the guy at AT&T to block the internet so i dont accidentally use it.
No it's not... I have it and it's crazzzyyy
Nevermind, still love my phone, turns out I just accidentally recorded a bunch of phone conversations, and that was taking up all the memory.
same for me! my charger even blew up! and now the battery just doesn't work.
should I get this or the Sharp FX phone????
I just found this phone in a box of my grandfather's old phones
it has a capacitive touch screen, not a restive one.
this sucks. I had a pantech laser and it broke (was in the hospital, nurses kept dropping it when it was charging on the table) so my insurance sent me this as a replacement because they don't sell the lasers anymore. The ONLY thing I like about this is putting it on "elderly mode" and having it read my funny texts my friends send me, lol. its freaking heavy too, and very thick compared to my other phone :(
@andrew3654 does it use more battery with mail/messaging than it does talk?
Been using this phone for a month. I really hate the battery life; 3-4 hours talk, less if you have the brightness all the way up and playing with it a lot. Charging sometimes twice daily is a real p.i.t.a! No headphone jack you need bluetooth.

Video camera playback is low-res & becomes quite pixelated. Great little phone aside from those gripes..
should I buy this or pantech impact?
i have this but you cannot receive or send pictures without a data plan so it gets really annoying sometimes...
@kiki199688 yes, but its not a full keybored
can you landscape text using the touch screen?
@kejiaen Nope, unfortunately, it doesn't. I was looking for one on mine and there's nothing.
i have this phone and it is good for simple uses but it does lose battery very fast and the picture quality is very bad.
do you need a data plan with this phone..?
@jaz304 im getting pursuit bc i cant find laser on at and t's website
I have a question on the profile when I get a txt message it doesn't play the whole song does anybody who how to fix it
