As day ten draws to a close, I find myself wondering how much I’ll miss the Cingular 3125 after it is packaged back up and sent back to its home. I will certainly miss the long battery life and the form factor. I will not miss the fact that it didn’t have a touchscreen (and therefore wasn’t a true Pocket PC), or the sometimes miserable signal.
I will miss the easy to read screens,… Read More
I cannot believe how good the battery life is on this 3125. It blows my XV6700 out of the water. Even with Bluetooth running, calls, and surfing, I ran for almost a day and a half without plugging in, and the meter only dropped two bars.
Battery life can be such a fickle thing. What works well for one, may not be for another. I just have my Verizon XV6700 to compare to - which can… Read More
All calls forwarded! Yep, went solo on the 3125 for the first time. Boldly going where…well, you can see where that joke was headed. Prior to today, I carried both phones, just in case. Yes, some calls still had problems (lowest dropped calls, they say, but then don’t mention the quality of said calls), but I was able to navigate with relative ease.
The problem is, about mid-day I… Read More
I’ve never been a fan of proprietary hardware, and the combo headset/power jack on the 3125 is no exception. While the included headphones don’t sound bad, why shouldn’t I be able to use my favorite set of earplugs instead. At this point there doesn’t seem to be an adapter available. Hopefully that will be resolved in the future.
Thankfully, a Y-adapter is included to allow for both… Read More
While the interface on the 3125 still is taking some getting used to, I’m quickly learning the menus. But now I’m experiencing a bit of button envy - from both sides!
First, having an actual number pad through which I can dial numbers is something I’ve always missed since switching to the XV6700. But the complete lack of a QWERTY keyboard to do the most simple messaging, surfing, and… Read More
We recently reviewed the Qtek 8500, and just to add a little more context, I’ll be checking in over the next ten days with the Cingular version - the 3125. Today is day one…
And of course, day one started out with a box being delivered to my door. Open it and tada! - Smartphone. Now, I’m a long… Read More
Most Smartphones don?t have many hardware shortcut buttons, so you lose the ability to quickly launch your favorite program. You can set your Smartphone to launch an application via speed dial, much like it?s set to access voicemail (by holding #1 on the keypad).
Go into the start menu, find the program that you want to set to Speed Dial, highlight it, then click Menu, and Add Voice Dial…. Read More

It looks like a model similar to the HTC Foreseer posted on here, is starting to appear, slowly but surely.
Although this implementation of the unit, called the Trilogy, and based on the HTC Monet, is slightly different, the concept is essentially the same. With a 2.2 inch QVGA (240×320) screen, and… Read More
Today my new Qtek 8500 has arrived. This is a production model from the first shipment to reach North America via the Smart Mobile Gadgets online store. Just like Steve’s Motorola Q, this is my first Windows Mobile Smartphone. First impressions are very impressive. The phone is very thin and very stylish. … Read More
