| silvergt's Full Review: Panasonic DuraMax EB-TX220 |
Duramax by Panasonic is a great little cellphone, using the word little losely ofcourse, by today's standards this one is much bigger than sone of those tiny Nokias but way smaller than the Nextel or the older Qualcomms. This phone has it all, everything I can imagine anyone would like in a Cellular phone. The sound quality is of course dependent on your carrier, though I have experience some problems with people unable to hear me and vice versa I attribute those issues with AT&T.
I strong signal places placing a call a land line or a cell phone which is also in a strong signal, this phone sounds like a 2.4 GHz cordless without the weight nor the size. Mine came with a handsfree earpiece with a microphone, though I would have preferred a headset, it works fine and it is free!
I complain about the ringtones, but it does have built in a couple of musical tone and also has the ability to vibrate and ring at the same time. It would have been nice to have been able to program our own ring tones like the Nokias. Oh well.
It features an alarm, yes it will wake you up in the morning as well. You can program different ring tones for different callers. The call history feature is marvelous, it will log the last ten phone calls you received, didn't answer and called. The EBTX220 also has a few extras like dual illumination (amber/green), a title screen, security locks.
The Lithium ION LI-ion is excellent, when fully charged I get 3 days (not hours) standby and a full days work of talk time.
Excellent buy for $149, but I think this is an incentive phone, the phone they would give you after activation.
