Very disappointed

By: John M on Friday, November 03, 2006
From Niagara Falls (United States)
Experience: 14 Days
Pros: Sleek style, excellent build quality, good feature set

Cons: Harsh sounding call quality, low call volume, average reception, buggy bluetooth, sluggish web browsing.

Summary: I was very disappointed in the K1M. The earpiece audio was at best mediocre and the call volume was very low, even with the volume at maximum. Bluetooth headset volume was adequate. Had to reboot the phone at least a couple of times each day because the voice commands didn't respond over bluetooth. Signal strength was at least 1-bar less than my previous phone, an LG VX7000.
