Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I purchased this phone a few days ago. I bought this model because I NEEDED a backlit LCD display (my phone sits in a dim location). The Amazon product photo currently on the website CLEARLY SHOWS A BACKLIT LCD, with dark caller ID text being highlighted by a brightly glowing greenish background. THIS PHOTO IS HIGHLY MISLEADING. This phone absolutely does NOT have a backlit LCD, and CANNOT create the bright glowing background as displayed in the product shot. Indeed, the photo on the Amazon website has had to be intentionally manipulated in a photo editing software to fabricate that greenish glowing light effect, which the phone itself cannot create. (And, yes, I did install 4 fresh batteries to fully test the phone's capabilities.)
As I require the backlighting, this product's other merits, whatever those might have been, are going untested as I am returning this item (at Amazon's expense due to website misinformation) immediately. However, as Amazon requires me to give the product a star rating to post this review, I very reluctantly will give it 2 stars, and that poor rating only because of what has to be the intentional misrepresentation of this product by either AT&T and/or Amazon.
UPDATE 11/23/10: I note with interest that, sometime during the last few weeks, Amazon has posted a new photo of this product. The previous photo was, as I and others had noted, altered to give the appearance of a brightly glowing background on the LCD area, an absolute fabrication. This new photo, while it looks to me to still be altered similarly to enhance the appearance of the LCD screen beyond its true capability, is at least not quite as misleading as the old one.
