BlackBerry 7100t Mobile Phone Review

BlackBerry 7100t Details

Nomiko Yes, it can work with sprint since it is quad-band (GSM 850/900/1800/1900), but I would look into sprint and ask them to make sure they are not on CDMA still. You would have to buy the phone outright since sprint does not carry the phone.

Lee Just had a customer of mine yesterday tell me he ws going to hire someone else as he could not hear me on my phone... fyi pick another phone...

<unknown> I am on my 4th 7100t. I too went through the huge waste of time of getting the run around from customer support. They want to run tests, update the software, etc. Everytime I call they act like this is some rare problem. I can't be sure that I am even leaving someone a message they will understand, ever. A friend played me some of the garbled, gibberish off of his voicemail. It's no wonder I don't hear back from many people I leave messages for. This has been a gigantic PITA. My current 7100t isn't any better and is getting worse daily.

Now, I understand, tmobile is stopping carrying the 7100t completely. Even if I wanted to get a new replacement I can't.

What a huge nightmare.

sambo Excellent phone for those on the move. Keeps me always in contact with my email messages. Internet browsing is excellent contrary to what some of the other post says. Hey it's internet on a phone, not internet through your broadband connection at home so don't expect it or any phone to be on par with that. At least for now...

Bottom line, I love it.

<unknown> My speaker or regular microphone stopped working on my 7100t. It works if I attach a headset to it..... I have read many complaints on the microphone/speaker on this.... Is there a way I can reinitialize this? or is my microphone/speaker broken?

dylan ton I used this phone for 3 wks, it was a waste on money!!!!!!The Speaker Phone was terrible, battery was pathetic, Internet was slower than my pregnant wife walk up the grand cayon, Reception was the waste. I just bought the Samsung 500 for $40 and it was phenomenon...Don't waste your mony on Blackberry 7100t

Julie HORRIBLE! The reception was horrible. It was hard to navigate around. It was super slow! You have reboot it every time you use it! Battery is beyond terrible! I use to think Blackberry was a very good company, but since this, I WILL NEVER purchase a blackberry AGAIN!

robert k Seems every ones problem with this unit is the phone and not the data transfer, me too have reception problem and clarity of the microphone it is BAD, one more negative is that no word attachments capability, Internet was fast in LA and Vegas areas, but on the east coast very slow, T-Mobile is my service provider, great phone plan but poor reception any given area on the Continant.

Tony We know that the phone has a problem. Does anyone one how do we get it fixed or does BB exchange it?

mike Add me to the list of suckers. Please avoid this phone/PDA and also avoid t-mobile for allowing this game to continue. They act like this is a new problem and they walk you thru a drawn out procedure of exchanges and wasting of the clients time only to end up with the same problem - a really bad phone
