Rating:  Summary: Don't blame the T68i for AT&T's problems.... Review: ... I've used this phone with TMobile, and loved it. So I got one with AT&T and was horrified at the quality of coverage. I was told that 'in a year, our coverage should double', but found it to have no greater improvement thusfar. After just returning from three weeks in Europe, as well as ten days prior in Mexico, I remembered why I loved this phone. It connected everywhere, places where my fiancés analogue phone wouldn't even get a signal. The call quality was excellent under these other networks, and, especially in Europe, the GPRS features were hugely helpful. It is a pity the major networks can't standardize on one network-type; in the meantime, if you want cutting edge tech, you are likely to be stuck with poor coverage, if you want coverage, choose Verizon.
Rating:  Summary: After 14 months of use... Review: After 14 months of use Ill talk about this phone that I still own (and which Im hoping to get rid of once $370 falls out of the sky so I can get the Motorola V600). The size is great because Im a tiny phone person. The color screen is even fairly nice although it's a bit pixely. I like the whole digital phone thing as a screen saver.But the cons kill me. Ive had two of these phones. First off that little side volume button didn't break off but it no longer works and that happened on both phones. The first phone it just kinda wiggled up and down. It does what it is supposed to do on this phone but it just refuses to work. It worked for about a week and just stopped. When I first had this phone, I had some huge roaming bills cuz it would just randomly jump into cingular. I still get charged for text message roaming sometimes...don't ask me how. Keeping numbers on the SIM card is a hassle because you can't do categories with this phone for the SIM. It has to be MOM Cell, MOM Home, MOM Work etc. whereas if you store them on the phone you can just put MOM and then enter her work, cell, home, email etc. in the different slots. My first phone threw a hissy fit and had a memory malfunction. One day it just decided that it was going to erase 3/4 of my numbers. Basically my phone booked looked like Alan space space space space Cindy space space space space space space Tammy etc. You had no access to the deleted numbers nor could you recover them and a bonehead AT&T operator told me to do memory reset and i lost ALL of my numbers after that. This phone is also prone to shutting itself off within pockets are purses even if the key lock is on. It has the voice dial but it would help if the voice dial rerecognized my voice. i set it up but hardly use it. The ringtones suck and if you're a person who likes to play games (which I don't) those stink too. This phone is a little old and outdated so i say buy something current and more costly and don't waste your $150.
Rating:  Summary: DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE Review: ALL AROUND BAD PHONE ESPECIALLY THE RECEPTION HOW DID THIS THING EVER GO INTO PRODUCTION?????
Rating:  Summary: piece of junk! Review: Don't buy this phone! In addition to having horrible reception, dropping calls, freezing frequently and having a horrible interface for simple tasks, it's extremely slow to use. I had to have this phone replaced just a few months after I got it because it wouldn't make calls anymore. Now, just six months after having it replaced, it's broken again!

Rating:  Summary: Sony Crapicsson t68i Review: I am going to bite the bullet and admit to being a multi-carrier wireless dealer. *ducks from punches* This phone has to be the WORST of the WORST that I have come across. I have hundreds of clients who when this phone first came out, wanted nothing else. Luckily they quickly learned how badly this phone operates and I was able to work something else better for them. Blue tooth- excellent Battery Life- can't beat it features- Good, but getting out dated Reception- My foot would have better quality reception. I myself decided to use the phone for a while to really inspect the problems, but after the side volume button fell off, the zero button stopped working, screen after screen would keep freezing and the fact of being a 22 year old male, I began to get gray hair while waiting for the menus to scroll through, I decided to put it in its place. My hammer was more use to me than this phone. Save yourself the time of even researching this product and give it up. Amazon has some great deals on Samsung phones which are absolutely amazing products! They are even looking like tough competition to me! I started using and now won't give it up! Anymore questions about phones, I could give some pretty money (and headache) saving tips! NKJazzman@hotmail.com
Rating:  Summary: nice phone Review: I am using the T68i with ATT and it is just amazing little phone. The phone is small and I am loving it. Amazing phone. Good service. (ATT's customer service sucks big time tho). This is the phone!!!!!!!! PROS: Small,light weight, Bluetooth, IR. Cons: none till now :)
Rating:  Summary: Nice Features but Not Durable-Poor Reception Review: I bought the T68i for its advanced features and bluetooth compatibility. I was able to synchronize the phone with my ACT! database and found the phonebook and calendar functions of the phone quite good. Bluetooth performance was spotty. I needed to re-establish the bluetooth link with headset quite frequently. Sometimes this worked without a hitch other times it took several tries. Reception on the phone was spotty in some areas where other ATT Next Generation phones had good reception...don't know why this was. My biggest complaint about this phone was its durability. Through normal wear and tear it just didn't measure up. The earpiece volume button popped off just a couple of months after I got the phone. This was a real problem since there was no other way to easily adjust earpiece volume. I think ATT had a lot of problems with these phones since they offered free replacements with another model (unfortunately that model did not have bluetooth or many of the other features).

Rating:  Summary: NEXT!!!!!! Review: I have had to exchange this phone about 4 times and also the sim card and battery another time each. The phones OS is user friendly, but is extremely slow. Reception sucks the big one and calls are frequently dropped. The phone can turn off even when the key guard is on!! Frequently see 'no access' or 'no gprs subscription', which means you cant use the phone. Very disappointed with this phone and I am going to get a new one. AT&T also sucks the big one. They are by far the most expensive carrier in this area, and half the time you cant make PHONE CALLS. I would not recommend this phone
