Construction
The Cingular 8125’s quality is very high, like all other HTC devices out there. Since the 8125 has a lot of vital components inside it, dropping it could potentially damage the phone. The phone seems very durable and built to last, but in my opinion the touch screen is very sensitive on Pocket Pc’s and you have to be careful not damaging it.

Conclusion
Many people believe that Windows Mobile Phones are for business professionals and for business purposes only. This is a big misconception because I think windows phones are aimed at both the teen and business professionals. Blackberries on the other hand are mostly for Business professionals because they lack all the entertainment features that young people are looking for. Windows mobile phones do a great job in aiming their products to a bigger market, and having not only good features but nice looking phones as well.

In conclusion, the 8125 is an excellent choice for Cingular customers because they can get it at a descent price which is way below retail. If you are a Cingular customer and looking to extend your contract this is the phone for you. If the phone is unlocked you can also use it on any GSM network in the world, and since it is quad-band it will have excellent recpetion. All the advanced features in this small package make it an excellent buy, especially since Cingular is selling it for so cheap!!

Monday, June 30, 2008I LOVE this phone. I bought a used one off of ebay for $168. I owned the Motorola MPX220 before - a little buggy but a good phone. The 8125 ROCKS! I can read ebooks (which I do quite frequently), listen to mp3 (like an ipod, only better). Buy the expansion card - I've bought games, etc to load and play. The reception is not as great as my daughter's RAZR but I'm not complaining.

Friday, June 13, 2008Well to date about right now its actually on ebay u can get an almost new one for about $200.00 US... The phone I have to admit is the best phone I have had in my opinion. I have tried alot of smartphones and this one by far is the most responsive. But thats my opinion! THANKS FOR THE REVIEW!
