Qtek 8100 - User Reviews

  • thanks

  • I have this phone now since 2 years, and it's the worst mobile phone imaginable: bigg, heavy, and incredibly powerless. Two things could be done with it: use as a stomp projectile, or just drop it in the bin right away..

  • Aaaargh! My phone isn't receiving Wap settings. Is it so complicated or is my phone getting senile?

  • the joystick is crap and you need to have microsoft active sync installed on your pc in order to charge the phone using the usb cable.

  • well its not a 8100 i don't know what version it is but please help if you can i wish to change the language but it looks like it's in norwegian language please e-mail me @ [email protected] oh wait it's one of those that's designed after a sidekick

  • I have this phone now since 2 years, and it's the best mobile phone imaginable: small, lightweight, but incredibly powerful. Two things could be improved: the fiddly joystick and the display resolution. With a 5 point button instead of the joystick and a 200x320 resolution (like it was available as SDA II for a while at T-Mobile) this would be a dream!

  • I totally agree with Micheal. The phone is awesome as i wrote in my review an year ago. but the joystick started giving problems after about 3 months and now it hardly works. but can't let go of this phone....it is addictive... Qtek should do something about the joystick it is frustrating.

  • By all due respect, don't buy this phone. Well.. it's a brilliant phone for a gadget freak like myself, but the 5-way navigation button is of poor quality, and will stop working probably after a few mounths.. :( If qtec would just fix this problem, it wold be the best smartphone ever!

  • The phone takes Mini SD cards. I just got one a couple of weeks ago. Again that's Mini SD. Not SD, not micro SD. Mini SD. Cheers

  • I realy like to buy this mobile, but can anyone tell me what kind of memorycard it takes cuz, I've read some specs and it seems that on some sites the word SD card has been mentioned and on this mini-SD. So please e-mail me on this one.

  • I want to know where it is possible to find the user manual for it. Thanks, Corinas

  • Tomorow i will have one ! I will tell you about it after that :D

  • Great phone, I have it 5month. Good plastic quality and nice to have in hand, good keyboard, display, operation with Contracts and sms! Its kind of perfect size, also different than others :) Does anyone knows the "best" software site for this phone?

  • does this phone vga camera picture are same good does alcatel756

  • This phone is great but microsoft needs to make improvements on the software bugs ie Win Media Player (it stops on its own) the hands free set kind of sux it is not practical. Otherwise the clarity is great just hope some updates will be available soon. As for people wondering it is not touch screen and the full specs of the phone are located at qtek. Other than that great phone but it is worth going for the more expensive models of qtek they have a better finish.

  • In simple words "AWESOME AND I'M LOVING IT" I'm from India and got this phone from my cousin working at Microsoft, Seattle. It is a wonderful and powerful machine and its really cool. Not many people around know that Windows can also run on mobiles.Great picture quality and sound clarity.Lot many functions than one can imagine after having a look at the phone. It hung once I Locked the keypad otherwise problem free. can anyone tell me how to enable the speakerphone?

  • how to unlock the keypad as i have set it to auto lock but now i dont want it to auto lock i cant find where i can disable this funtion... need help asap!

  • got this phone now in my hands..smartphone.. in singapore or asia we call it O2.... n this model is Xphone IIm... need to install your own bluetooth if you are thinking of sending files to others & also.... it does not support chinese... but this think can be easily solve by downloading software into it n become really smart now...lolz... look the phone mp3... it stereo not mono @ all.... other funtion are a bit hard if you never use a smarphone before but after 2 days i get use to it.... =D after all both thumb up for this prefect phone...

  • i don't know if this mobile phone recognize word and exel files??????????

  • Guys, you know if this one has a TOUCHSCREEN also? Else I would feel like in the pre-mouse era using windows from the buttons.

  • Hello, Where can i buy a Qtek phone in USA? any online store? Thanks

  • In fact this isnt the same as the SPV C550. The C550 has a higher res screen at 320x240. The C550 is a Qtek 8200 I believe.

  • Link:

  • Hi! Qtek is made by the company HTC. Qtek 8100 is a "Music phone" and it has some extra buttons. Play, paus.... You can find more information aboute this phone on Qtek:s webpage. www.Qtek.se /Oskar

  • This is martked as the Orange SPV C550 and according to there website it does have a 1.3mp camera onboard.

  • pls i would like u people,to improve on camera.vga is old sturf make phones with mega pixel then no other phones can match ur product which i still rate number on in the whole world.

  • in the uk on orange they are claiming it has a mega pixel camera and 256 tft screen. anyone with clear spec, please post thanks

  • When I saw this phone for the first time, I thought I was to puke. But after some looking at it, I think it looks great! So, the camera sucks? Then buy a megapixel cameraphone.

  • I think this device could have a high ratings im Moscow...our pleple like performance,style and Qtek 8100 can satisfy them! :)

  • this fone is really one of the best in the galaxy... a gadget that Darth Vader should have..

  • I think it�s looking good

  • sad design and a vga cam need to improve

  • Damm i hate Windows Mobile OS!

  • Still VGA Camera ????
