Phone is useless due to battery life.

30 Dec 2008 MICHAEL MCCARTHY

7 out of 10

My wife and I bought the Boulder for each other for christmas.We received both phones in the mail.When we opened them we were surprized to find they came with two battery,s.I was concerned about this and wondered if this meant the battery life was not good.


After two days of ownership we both agree that the phones are useless.Do not hold a charge with either battery.you can charge them at night and when at work they both are dead by lunchtime.Even when you dont talk on them they use all the battery life up quickly.


I met someone else today who has the same phone and same issues.


Dont plan on going into the great outdoors with this phone unless you are bringing a generator to charge them.





looks beautifull,Is waterproof,The Flashlight is bright,has a compass
Absolutely no battery life.......

Boulder's a Bust

16 Dec 2008 Louis Cirillo

5.3 out of 10

     I got a Black and Silver Boulder in September. When I first got it the ear set sound quality was terrible. Perhaps its a function of the ear set having a water proof membrane and that's causing it to sound like I'm getting a call from Charlie Brown's teacher. (Wah, wah, wah, whaaaa, wha, whaaaa)


     I am in the National Guard and also a civilian law enforcement officer, so I am hard on phones. I couldn't believe that the phone didn't come with the software to support Backup Assistant, that made me mad. Finally a software upgrade came out. Now, ever since upgrading the software, my phone runs very slow. I push a button for a function and wait several seconds for it to take effect.


     The screen is much smaller than my old Samsung ach930, which I loved. The plastic is gimicky and the black parts have a rubber like feel, but it's only the type of paint they used, it's not truly armored. The silver paint chips and gouges quite easily. My phone looks like it's several years old instead of just a few months. I do like the flashlight feature, but when charging the phone at night I have to cover it with something as the charging function light it so bright it lights up the room. 


      I spoke with Verizon rep today and they stated that the Boulder has several quality and software issues. They are sending me a brand new replacement and have promised that it has all of the bugs fixed. I am not so sure. Overall, it's a disappointment as a phone and doesn't live up to the company hype.





Great flashlight, docking charger has room for a larger battery
Poor quality silver paint, soft plastic casing nicks and gouges easily, no armor. Small screen, ear set sound quality fuzzy and indistinct, charging indicator light on face cannot be turned off and lights up the room at night when charging.

if you need a tough phone, look at the Boulder

11 Dec 2008 Russ Mead

It is a good, tough phone. It lacks, as most new phones, an external antenna port. The speaker is good, though on the back of the phone. The buttons are easy to use. You can drop it in the mud, wipe it off on your jeans and keep talking. I am not getting the stated stand by time. I loaded a two gig memory card but doubt I will use it much. I love the pocket watch type crystal on the clock display on the front of the phone.  I have a history of breaking phones in my line of work. This one is tougher than most, and I highly recommend it if you are in harsh environments. I don’t text, get e-mail, take photos, listen to music, etc. I am not saying the phone is not good at these function, I just don’t use them so am not qualified to comment on how well they work. My needs are for a bullet proof phone and this fills the bill. The charging cradle is perfect and adds to the toughness of the phone as there is less chance of pulling the guts of the phone out with the charger. (The cause of death of my last phone.)





tough
water resistant
speaker
clock on front is protected and looks like a watch
no external antenna port for 3W signal booster like wilson electronics
