Have had this phone since it came out. It is a great phone with camera. Although the ringer is not very loud, the battery life for me has been great. I use the camera about three times a week to take images of things i need to remember. I have had the same battery since new, so two years of life from it. I have never turned it off. I just plug the phone into the charger while it's still on. I work in an auto shop and it's with me at all times, I've dropped it, kicked it, and have gone through three broken belt clips, and it still works like the day I bought it. I expect a cell phone to operate at least two years, so I am pleased with this phone after two years of operation. I hope I can find another phone this good when this one does finally stop working.

        i had this phone for more than a year and it was the best phone i ever had. i left it in a backpack at a baseball field and never got it back, so i had to but a new one. but while i had that, i would be able to just drop it on the ground, and nothing would happen, this was the best phone while it lasted.i highly reccomend this phone. it is almost indestructible.

              Sharp Tm150 sucks. It quit working. I thought it was the battery so I purchased a new one, Tmobile doesn't sell them so I found one online. It worked for a day after installing the new battery then went blank again and won't turn on. I get a blip of light when trying to turn the phone on but that's it. It won't indicate it's charging the battery, nothing.

                  When I first purchased this phone, it was wonderful. Then after a month or so, it just quit working and was replaced by T-Mobile. After a couple of months, this TM150 quit working. I purchased a new charger at our local T-Mobile store, this didn't help and there was NO REFUND, so I purchased a new battery from Sharp. The phone worked again, for a while. T-Mobile sent me another battery charger and the phone charged and worked for about five months with no more problems. Then all of a sudden, the phone won't charge at all. I have no idea if it's the battery, the charger or just the phone. For a $200 phone, it has cost me at least another $100 for chargers, batteries and shipping. What a waste of my money!!!!

                    I love the phone, however it quit working, and my service provider has messed up shipping me a new one 3 times, I want my phone. The only issue I have with the phone, it says games are downloadable, but I can't download them? what is the problem?

                          I have had this phone since the day it came out (2+ years now). I have never had a battery charging problem (I make sure to run the battery down most of the way before recharging). I love the keypad and user interface. I need a worldwide phone, and the TM150 works really well that way (that's why I have had T-Mobile (VoiceStream before the buyout); their international rates (per minute, no roaming charges) are really good). The displays are first rate. I actually don't mind having a bit of heft to it, but I wish there was some way to get rid of the nub antenna (I keep the phone in my pocket). I also really like the way the contact (address) book is set up (multiple phone numbers per entry, not a separate entry per phone number). When I get a call from someone in the contact book, the Caller ID tells me who it is regardless of which number (in the book) they called me from (their home, their office, their mobile).

                          Problems? As reported by many others, the phone doesn't have a very high ring volume. I have it set to both ring and vibrate, but I still miss the occassional call.

                          No regrets (I don't text message, so I can't speak to that).

                              this phone is hella tight. I just got it as an early christmas gift. I'd have to say its pretty damn nice. Takes really clear pics. Also, it is a bit big, but has alot of features. Does anyone know how to get REAL songs to play as the ringtones... i have converted a few songs on my powermac and then transfered to the card, but i dont know how to exactly make them play as the rington... can u donwload actual song mini clips from the tmobile broswer? Thanks to anyone who can help.

                              also to anyone who complains about tmobile... they have the cheepest plans with the greatest amount of minutes and they have great service too... i dont find anything wrong with it, if you dont like it then switch, because it is by far the best.

                                I have had this phone for a year. There are definitely pros and cons to it. This phone is for people that really want to just personalize a phone. The Bluetooth is a bit of a bother but there are ways around it. Speaker phone doesn't bother me because I hate speaker phones. The things that do disappoint me are the facts that the ringer isn't loud as I need it to be and that the battery sucks over time. However, I have been able to use all kinds of backgrounds, ringers and icons for it.I have software that allows me to make ringers to play on it and play rather well. Just wish it was louder. It's sturdy. I value this especially since I am not a particularily a graceful woman. The reception and dropping calls have to do with your server. This is the reason that I am with T-Mobile and not with Sprint. Sprint had a tendancy to not allow me to have my messages. T-Mobile ensures that I get all my messages faster. I get my text messages quickly. I have a feeling that also has to do with the carrier. I appreciate the fact that it can use an SD card like the one that I have for my MP3 player as well as my digital camera. Thus it allows me to have one type of media transferrance that I can swap in and out of my other electrontics. This has come in handy several times. The pics are decent. I can save all my digital pics to my SD card and take them with me in my cell to show others. It is better than the other cell pics that I have seen out there and has helped me in my business several times. So what it boils down to is: What are your needs and does this phone address your needs? It does for me but may not for the next person. What's important to you? If Bluetooth is and so is speaker phone, then this isn't the phone for you. If you like to have fun with your phone with your own ringers and pictures, then this is the great phone for you!

                                  I bought this phone on ebay. I was eyeing it for about a year now. I'm not having any issues with it yet, except I hate the text messaging. I hate that I have to chenge the options everytime I want to text message, that the phone doesn't save it. Kinda annoying.

                                        I received this phone as a birthday present and I like it,but there are some things about the phone that I do'nt like.
                                        It's not a bluetooth phone, and it takes forever for me to send pictures that I take with it.I wish this was a better phone.I hope they come out with one that has bluetooth,I would gladly upgrade to one in a heartbeat.
