  T-Mobile Sidekick II is slick - but not for everyone
Review created: 09/22/05
131 of 149 people found this review helpful.

The T-Mobile Sidekick II is like nothing else on the market - and that's how the Sidekick is being marketed. Because of its uniqueness - its neither a traditional phone or a traditional PDA - its draws a variety of opinions and tastes. My opinion about the Sidekick though is that everyone can agree that the technology is great, the interface is intuitive, and the gadget is very slick. The personal preference instead comes when choosing rather you'd carry a Sidekick II over a phone (pros: more functionality and more size) or over a Blackberry (different but similar functionalities).

The Sidekick II is full of features that are best of breed among the newest cell-phones and PDAs:

# 240 x 160 pixel screen
# True web browsing - in color
# Built-in camera with flash - good quality
# Calendar & organizer w/ PC synchronization - accepts V-cards
# Photo caller ID and personalized pictures
# AOL Instant Messenger
# Easy & efficient text messaging
# 6 MB email account

AND: The Sidekick II is 25% slimmer than its predecessor.

The Sidekick's big advantage is its capability to easily instant messaging and write and read emails. In that sense it's like a blackberry (have you ever tried to fully type out a email using a traditional phone?!).

The other big advantage of the Sidekick is its sexiness and knack for customization. The Sidekick allows up to 2,000 contacts, a photo album, a complete organizer, etc - so when you are carry a Sidekick, its really you. Of course you can personalize Sidekicks too - there are all sorts of accessories and add-ons that are sold (all of which are on eBay). Both of these reasons make the Sidekick II so popular with celebrities.

According to the "Popular Products Page", Currently the Sidekick II is the most popular T-Mobile cell phone on eBay and the 3rd most popular cell phone overall... for good reason!

  Love My SideKick II
Review created: 10/06/05

I must say that I am very impressed with my SideKick II. I was originally with Verizon but they do not have a network that will nsupport my travels oversees. So, I got a T-Mobile Sidekick and now I can travel in Europe and have Internet access on my phone at any time. They have a great unlimited Internet for $20 a month and unlimited texting. Compare that to Verizon's $39 a month and $5 for texting you can not beat it.

Only bad thing is that the Web Browser on the Sidekick does not support Javascript. But I am told that an update is coming in the next few weeks that will have support for Javascript.

I bought this for my 12 year old daughter. She absolutely loves it! It makes texting (her favorite thing) so much easier. She's had it for over a month now and I haven't heard one complaint (a record). As for myself, I like that accessories and parts for the phone are easy and cheap to get on ebay.

The phone arrived in good timing. I knew that I would need to purchase an unlock code and did. But after having the phone for 2 days and not even using it yet the back light on the screen quit working. THe screen no longer lights up and you have to be by a lamp or sunlight to read any thing on it.

i like the keyboard better than the sidekick 3 because its not as deep as sidekick 3 and it doesnt break as easy as sidekick 3 i really recommend sidekick 2 than sidekick 3 when you open the LCD sidekick 2 is better than sidekick 3 because when you open the LCD screen on the sidekick 3 it pops up the back of it. not recommending you to get sidekick 3 SIDEKICK 2 RULES!

I would love this phone if it worked. I purchased this phone from ebay, got it 10 days after paying for it and when I finally recieved it, nothing. I called T-mobile, they went through all functions with me and determined after speaking with Stephanie agent # 3278824, that the phone is infact defective, that no unlock code is needed for this particular model of sidekick II.

We can not use the phone without a head piece.. That was not indicated in the listing.

The keyboard works good.. so text mess.. is not a problem.

We decided to buy it, because the cost was average compared to the other listings.

Click on the link below, register, pick an account type (referral is the easiest) and complete just 1 offer (Very important that you complete the 1 offer otherwise your account will sit in limbo until you do). The best offer to do is STAMPS.com. Its free, all you need to do is register and follow the instructions. And you’re on your way to your free prize for just completing this offer!

There are plenty of cool offers to choose from such as Blockbuster online, Stamp.com, Netflix, Gamefly which are services you would regularly sign up for anyways and their all secure networks, why not use them to get a free PS3, flat screen TV, iPHONE, ipod or cash (I did the Stamps.com for a 4 week free trial and it is free! I don’t have to do anything with it). Look at the offers and choose the one that works for you. After signing up and completing your one offer, simply refer 5-14 people or friends (depending on the FREE prize you choose) to do the same under your link (just post the same thing as I have on eBay or any other message board, and you'll get your referrals before the auction even ends.)

Then they will ship your selected item for free. No Joke, 100% REAL!!! The reason these companies make money, is because most people don't bother getting all the referrals. All you have to do is post it on EBAY! They use us as advertisement by word of mouth which saves them tons of money which goes toward yours and my free gift. These are legit companies such as Blockbuster, Netflix, Gamefly etc... You can copy my listing if you want. You must use your own authentic link though. You will get your own personal link after your orders placed.

to buy...No commitments!!!

There are plenty of cool offers to choose from such as Blockbuster
online, Stamp.com, Netflix, Gamefly which are services you would

simply refer 8-13 people (depending on the FREE prize you choose) to
do the same under your link (just post the same thing as I have on

Then they will ship your PS3 System or your selected item for free, I
chose the PS3 80gb System. No Joke, 100% REAL!!! The reason these

I DONT LIKE THE FACT THAT I WAS SOLD A CELL PHONE THAT CANT EVEN BE CHARGED. YES IT WAS NOTED IN THE DESCRIPTION BUT IT WAS NOT HIGHLIGHTED, IN FACT IT WAS HIDDEN AMONG A POOL OF OTHER WORDS DESCRIBING THE PRODUCT THEREFORE EASILY OVER LOOKED. (I PUT IN A BID BECAUSE WITH LESS THEN 5 MINUTES LEFT THATS WHAT YOU DO) THE FACT THAT IT WAS NOTED,EVEN IN THAT MANNER,MAKES IT LEGAL FOR THE SELLER AND I JUST LOST MONEY. THIS MAKES ME NOT WANT TO EVER BUY ON EBAY EVER AGAIN AND I NOW ENCOURAGE ALL MY FAMILY AND FREINDS NOT TO DO SO ALSO. SOME PEOPLE HAVE NO HEART AND IT RUINS IT FOR EVERYBODY ELSE WHO ARE HONEST.

  "DON'T BUY THIS" - T-Mobile Sidekick II (T-Mobile)
Review created: 02/12/08
1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

OMG What a terrible phone! Not only is the phone a bust so is the seller. I bought this listed as a working phone only to find out that it did not. Took the phone to the T-Mobile Store to find out all about the many problems they have had with this model and that the "PROBLEMS ARE NOT REPAIRABLE". That if it was still under warranty they would just replace it. Buying is used this option did not apply. So, I have spent the last month trying to get my money refunded through paypal and the seller. Not only will the phone fail you so will the this seller.

I like the size of the unit, the QWERTY keyboard and texting functionality. Would be a great item for someone who does more texting than talking.
