NEC has finally launched on AT&T GSM network, most customer care centers have this available for order i know some stores in ATL, GA are getting shipments Friday..Phone will retail for 299.99 new or contract ext. or 355.00 without a contract

Crazyboy · 07-31-2003, 11:46 PM

On the website it is 219.99 with the web rebate which is $100 off. This looks like a nice phone!

tino · 08-01-2003, 8:11 AM

Yeah Web offers seem to be cheaper these days, ATT is competing with itself..But the web offers are exclusivley for new Activations....Im recieving my shipments in store today..

Crazyboy · 08-01-2003, 10:56 AM

OOO...Please tell me if you can how they are. If i dont switch to Verizon in December I think this might be my next phone!

tino · 08-01-2003, 11:17 AM

I just opend one up out of the box..I will let you know

Crazyboy · 08-01-2003, 5:18 PM

Any info would be greatly appreciated!

tino · 08-01-2003, 5:47 PM

o.k. so far im very disapointed with the NEC, this phone has terrible reception! the RF performance is below Ericsson in my opinion(t306,T68I)..My 6590, 6800,3650 basically all Nokias higher end blow it out of the water...HDM screen is impressive though but the ring volume and talk volume are not good at all..I find i have to turn the volume down, not because the other person is talking loud but the pick up from my own voice is Very loud! So far the 2 buttons on the outsside of the flip perform 1 function..Volume control..If its closed and a call comes in they basically do nothing if you pres them..Big dissapointment

Crazyboy · 08-02-2003, 2:44 PM

That dosent sound to good. Ok. I guess I will go and get a Nokia 3595 or a Siemens C56 or somthing...any suggestions there?

tino · 08-02-2003, 3:44 PM

actually theres a Nokia 7250 Camera phone due out, ericsson t606 or 316 camera phone plus a Camera Samsung flip and Siemens S56 color with Bluetooth all due out shortly..As far as NEC the 525 model will release next with Flip action, external caller i.d. and camera.but reception hopefully will improve..Siemens C56 is a quality phone for the price..Hands free speaker phone is nice.

Crazyboy · 08-02-2003, 3:58 PM

So I think ill be off soon on my way to get a Siemens c56 or S56...it all depends on the price. How much is the Siemns S56?

tino · 08-02-2003, 11:09 PM

S56 is in the 200 to 300 range

Crazyboy · 08-02-2003, 11:17 PM

Ok...Thats to much for me right now, so out of the c56 and Nokia 3595, which is better?

Canarsiejoe · 08-12-2003, 9:13 PM

Well everyone here it goes. I just switched to a moto 721 from the 515.. And here is why. Dont get me wrong its an awsome phone if you like crappy battery life. When i had my V60 i would charge for about 8-12 hours and get about 3 days out of it. This phone i charged it for the same amount of time and i only get about anywhere from about 10 hours to a day and that is on standby. The sound quality of the ringers is fantastic but the voice quality is not that great. The rest of the features of the phone are great but let me tell you this is not a phone for me. All of the lights and gizmos just kill the battery power. Just thought i would throw in my 2 cents.

tino · 08-13-2003, 9:18 AM

Here Here.........I agree totally on the NEC, hope the NEC 525 will be better..Noticed you are using a wallpaper from NEC website for your user profile..The flag with the Dove is nice too

Canarsiejoe · 08-13-2003, 10:59 AM

Tino this is not from the the NEC website. LOL i did not even know they had that one. I had this for awhile right after 9/11.............. LOL not that it matters anyway JUST STAY AWAY FROM THE 515

tino · 08-13-2003, 11:51 AM

That is a coinsedence, i used the 515 for a weekend and used it all over ATL that weekend and it was terrible! So i was happy to hand it back on monday

Canarsiejoe · 08-13-2003, 1:18 PM

I could not wait to hand mine in either. Let me tell ya the moto t720 has gotten a bad rap through verizon but i had prior to this and i was great. i just got the 721 and let me tell ya what a difference.
