Kyocera E4610PTT "DURAXV LTE" PTT Verizon Rugged Camera Cell Phone

I got the Kyocera about five months ago. It seemed to be good quality and was just what I had wanted, a simple rugged phone for talking and texting without the bells and whistles. As time went on the phone started having some issues with the screens and the speaker. Some of the issues may have been from me, but I also believe that the phone just had some issues or was at the end of its life. The company couldn't really have known about those issues, it just happens some times. I contacted them and even though the phone was pretty far outside of warranty, they were very reasonable and went above and beyond to get my problem solved. All in all, I believe this is an honest company, and they have excellent customer service. When dealing with used products, sometimes things just don't go right, but that's the cost of buying used. I would highly recommend buying from this company!

battery life is not that good,otherwise this phone is great

I conduct surveys for insurance carriers, the unwieldy "Smart Phones" just did not cut it working out in the field; drop them and that's that, have to go buy another Plus they were just too complicated. With this phone, it is rugged no worries about dropping; plus have all I need voicemail, email Google etc in a simple to use functional device. Thanks to this seller I was shipped a replacement for a dropped "Smart " phone almost overnight. Great phone, great supplier

UPDATE: Still using both phones, for 4 and 3 years, respectively. I have dropped and accidentally torqued these phones, and they are still going strong. The ruggedized quality was recently put to the test as I was trying to carry everything in from the truck in one armload (bad idea) and managed to drop the older phone in my yard without immediately noticing. My neighbor's labrador picked it up and chewed on it for an hour before we found the phone got it back. I expected the phone to be destroyed; but after cleaning it up, to my shock, it still works as before, in spite of the tooth marks and scratches. Unbelievable, in a good way. Original review: My number one requirement for a phone is reliability, encompassing two things: excellent sound quality, and reliable connection (I cannot stand dropped calls.) Already have this exact model on another line and loved it - based on sound quality, when I use that phone, people think I am on a land line, even when I am in the boonies. This particular phone is not quite as reliable as my original one (which I have been using for a year) even though it is the exact same model and software version - this one has a dropped a few calls, and has more static, especially when the call has first connected. I use both phones from the same places, so it is not a difference in signal strength, but a slight deceased performance of the particular phone I received (my other one works fine, no static, and doesn't drop calls, ever.) If not for that slight drop in performance, would be 5 stars . . . The vendor IS 5 stars, shipped the phone same day with all needed accessories, and I received it sooner then expected. Note, the manufacturer does not provide a written manual for this phone, but you can download one from Kyocera's web site (the vendor cannot provide a manual which does not exist, so please don't hold that against the vendor.) This phone is SO much more reliable than the overpriced phablet (giant smartphone) I retired to start using it. What good is a telephone you can't use for calls? This phone is miles ahead of any smartphone if you *need* a telephone rather than a pocket computer, which I did. I will likely use it for years, and suspect I could run over it with my truck and it be no worse for wear. If you need a reliable phone, get this, you will not regret it.

the battery dies on a minutely basis. and it doesnt give you any notice that its dying. other than that, its a great phone.

So my husband loves his new phone. His old 1X flip phone finally could get no signal and this was the best option for a simple LTE phone. The sound quality is excellent. Crystal clear audio. The battery life, since he has very modest use, is pretty good. It can last 2-3 days on a charge. The vendor described the item perfectly. The phone was basically new. No signs of wear and original plastics on everything. One thing we found out is you must removed the plastic on the interior screen or it mutes your sound. Better signal reception than my LG smart phone.

I signed a two year contract with AT&T and they sent me a phone like this one. But I could not understand why I cracked the screen in my pocket. It only lasted 2 weeks. AT&T would not replace it for me. So I purchased this one and it has been like a rock. I have dropped it and am up and down all day long with it in my pocket. That is why I ordered it for it's durability. And it is very tough and durable and can take the abuse. Thank you.
