  • It wasn't, I had one, it added 3G modem to a laptop via USB cable and so was extremely useful if you were travelling a lot, before wifi got common.

  • Iv got this phone and i have to say i couldn't be happier, the slick futuristic screen display is second to none, and the chrome red finish really is first class.The microphone sounds slick with its hi definition surround sound system, nd the way the buttons just sink into the device when you touch then just drives me wild! What can i say? 10/10 HANDS DOWN!

  • from where i can buy this phone plz reply guys thanks.?

  • @Rohit you can use this phone as a USB Modem cuz regular modems dosen't got the technology that a mobile phone got still it's design i think it's unique it looks very futuristic i actualy got one and i love it still my iPhone beats the crap out of it LMAO but still a nice phone

  • it's intrestting thing to talk for lough

  • its a usb

  • It's an okay device. Great if you want a modem for your laptop/netbook, and it even doubles as a phone, cool! I showed it to my friends and they were like, "Dude that phone is sickkkkkkkkkkkkkk" except I also have a smartphone that outdoes this haha. For the price I got it at, it's an excellent phone!

  • Toshiba g450 win 7 driver

  • This phone is amazing often we use to work a television, airconditioner try it....

  • i want to know cost of this mobile

  • I have the exact shaving kit looking like this. Costing double of this phone price.

  • tevo anyone???

  • hahahahah what a great phone just looks like a remote control or child toy....

  • It looks more like a remote control, but features are amazing

  • this great phone can be available in turkey just 100 euro. it can be charge via usb port while you are using it. great device. thanks toshiba.

  • you guys are really sarcastic, this phone has 3G. this is a great usb-phone for the business people like me. so if you want to make a review about phones just go to normal phone pages and leave this masterpiece alone.

  • i like thos OZN :P. but is a phone only to call and answer....

  • The worst phone that I ever saw in my life since I started reviewing cellphones.. Its a waste with a good features. I prefer that phone is for kids

  • to wink.. it also look like a Swiss Knife!

  • Its a cool phone, i think its the most stylish phone of its class, the real problem is its availablity.

  • let's kill the designer of this phone!...its a waste...it looks like a stop watch!....

  • What a phone! You need to learn how to type using this. then you need to learn how to read what you typed. Its probably one of those experiments gone wrong. They just covered up and started selling them!

  • its look like a remote control

  • What is the use of 3G, EDGE or GPRS in the phone without a browser. Such a waste...!!!!

  • I can't tell, if You're being sarcastic, or not. If I was saying that, I would be being sarcastic... But it's entirely possible, that 30 Minutes of Call Time, is perfect, for what You use it for, and ensures that You don't run up a huge Bill... So, please cold You... Just confirm, that You mean it, seriously? Cheers. :).

  • As per the features, you can use it for an SMS as well..How on earth will you be able to type with this bizzare thing?? I mean what on earth were they thinking? Just try typing "Hey there" even...I believe they use it in the interrogation cells..they give you an essay of some 500 words and then they give you this cell and ask you to type the whole damn essay...you will surely spill out every nitty gritty crime you have ever committed, might even accept the one's you haven't :p I believe Star Trek guys can use it to open and close all those multiple doors on their ships :p

  • are you sure this is a fone? not an mp3 player? or a remote control? or even a shaver? looks like a contact lense case...

  • Nice little phone. Working great, battery life 1,5 days on 30 min talking. After you get used with the keyboard and menu is very easy to use. Music player is quite loud for his size. No problems for dialing or answering, hearing volume is high. MP3 can be setup as ring tone, charging fast. I use it as modem on win and mac no problems on both. When is usb connected is charging, on modem mode is running empty in 6-7 hours even if is charging. I keep this phone as a spare one and is better than usb 3G modems. Due to his size, shape, functionality and actual price, G450 is actually more than a regular phone. People around you will notice this nice gadget.

  • I bought this yesterday,just wanted to find out how to sett this phone to the internet or if there is a software needed. Email:[email protected] (zambia)

  • is this a Xpress Music for toshiba... he! he! he! it looks funny and it looks like my remote control for my aircondition and Mike maybe this device is for Batman maybe it gets lost and toshiba found it and made it a phone he! he! he! joke only...

  • Jolly Good Phone 10 out of 10

  • looks like something batman would use "the bat-dialler" ha ha ha "alfred i need a pizza, FAST!"

  • looks like you have a mobile phone and a watch at the same time

  • I bet Toshiba thought they were really cool when they made this... thing.. LOL :p

  • Kiron, i think i love u...

  • Great thing. I am gonna use it as a vibrator while connected to internet and playing mp3. That way I will be having a radiation emitting, music playing vibrator, all in the same device. Yay.

  • lmao i thought it was a vibrator too ahhaha

  • It looks like a stop watch.

  • please,umts/hsdpa to 7.2mbps

  • this is not just a phone. it's a internet 3.6 mb/s modem. i am using it as a modem for my netbook and it is verry fast.

  • this is not just a phone. it's a internet 3.6 mb/s modem. i am using it as a modem for my netbook and it is verry fast.

  • shame thats the last thing one should consider ...this was done just for the single ladies ...vabrator it is ..

  • its easy bro just try it again

  • Amazing Device i love it

  • waste mobile

  • Try to buy a better phone, see if that works.. um... better

  • Ciao,Where can I find a replacement battery.tnx ciao ernesto(italy)

  • Hallo. I hawe an else charging problem, than ju have dikused. After the battery drained out, I tried to recharge the device, but it would not work. It allways started booting again, ewen if I used USB charger and not the PC. What to do?

  • The phone will be charging whenever it is connected through USB, but I believe using 3g/HSDPA speed for internet connection will drain out the battery much faster than it is charging. So far no charging problem using the modem in EDGE mode.

  • is this a DDR machine

  • why cant charge while is connected through USB as a modem ??

  • nice,cool , weirdo , great...

  • Yes the battery will drained out after about 2-3 hour of internet browsing at 3g/HSDPA speed. The solution, if you don't need to use full speed 3.5g speed switch to 2g mode. In EDGE mode I found the battery life is not affected with internet browsing or even downloads.

  • Has anyone got any problem with the battery? it seems that the battery cuts off everytime i go online with this thing... anyone can rectify the issue?

  • No trolling - deliberately antagonizing other brand/model users will get you banned

  • i think this phone is similar to B.Mobile Pike Modem Phone, isn't it???. Go to this web for further details,

  • finally managed to transfer mp3 file to the phone using mass storage fxn. But still unable to figure out how to transfer using toshiba own software. I think mine has a softwarwe bug because sometimes after received sms the sms reas as read failed. Then I had to restart to enable the sms read again . A bit annoying but not very frequent though. Otherwise an excellent modem and acceptable as basic phone ( if you don't mind about small button and eccentric keypad)

  • that's a nice fone dude

  • Just bought the phone for 1 week. Had problem with installing file to the phone memory using u-disk mode. When I want to format the disc we will be asked what is the security code. There are no code given with this phone and it is not the same as my sim pin. Anyone can help me with this. Maybe this phone has common security code?

  • if we instal new sofware this phone have HSDPA 7.2 :D

  • no card slot :( shame...it was perfect...

  • that's fitting for my sweet lady

  • This phone is ugly.. how could you even use the screen??

  • good one!internet modem + mobile,great idea!thnx toshi!

  • No. No we can't. That is... kind of the point.

  • This mobile looks so wicked coooolllll!!!!

  • Hello,whoever made this phone,congratz,love it,but can u just make another version with same size but include the bluetooth,wide screen with tiny keypad and internet browser..n maybe tiny camera,i really like this phone so much,tq

  • It's wireless broadband,n multifunction phone,i like it..jez plug n play,u can surf using ur pc or laptop anywhere

  • it looks like a gate remote control lol

  • I got it today! + The look is much better than on the pictures. It's a cool sci-fi design. + Light weight, good touch and very small!! + The software for PC is very good.You can handle everything on your pc like, accepting calls,writing sms etc.. and it has a good internet trafic statistic. Stable connection. - The screen is very-very small but if you want it for modem so use the client soft on your computer. - The ring/sms volume is very LOUD even on the min. It's a soft bug maybe? The ringtones are awful. You can replace them with your mp3. - The mp3 player it's a joke.

  • Haha it looks like a turtle shell.. As if any fool would want to buy that! It looks ... quite frightening actuallyy. ,x. :)

  • dears...this is first of all an internet modem 3g/cdma ..and has also the basic function of a phone (voice call + sms) . is small and compact treat it like a modem and you will se it's great

  • What is this???

  • it has SUCH a small screen. ew it looks gross

  • This is the ugliest Phone ever. Just look @ that Crappy Design.BeRRK!

  • as for all the wise ppl who say tht this fone is crap, lemme know of your ideal phone with the best screen, cam+cam software/user interface(tht compares to something decent), good talktime/standby spec. battery, decent user interface combo, tell me bout a phone tht packs a decent package, as far as I c, every fone lacks, somewhere, it may be the ram, the processor, the software, cam anythng. every fone has its strength and is made with a specific customer in mind, so back off and keep the ideas to yourself, some ppl just need a fone. It is the best fone for places tht don�t allow fones for all sorts of crappy reasons as can be passed off as an mp3 player, would work well with a pda or laptop as a modem.

  • even if i saw it in the table without its owner and i have given a chance to steal it,i will not do it.i really hate that fone

  • is it a fon? or a spaceship... may b some alien has left this on earth... it luks like a dual-hair-dryer.... hahhahahaha hheeeeeeeeeeehehehehehe lollzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz....wat d f***? tell those guys to resign....

  • i think is a must phone for 2009

  • WAt is the purpose of dis fone???? just look at the design. and its features..

  • It looks like my remote control i lost yesterday.. Wait > is that it?? Useless phone

  • Talking, (fast) data-transfer, rare SMS and small size. To bad it has no BT - hence no connection with my BT handsfree device. If there would be a BT option I'd buy it instantly.

  • Is that a cellphone???

  • A low grade third class phone , it looks more like a music player.

  • weird!

  • ideal for us working in a high security petrochemical plant/facility, rather than buying a Bandluxe HSDPA modem...with this, you can actually use it as a fone too! cool! again, not for kids...

  • Weird looking phone.

  • have you seen it in use? if you see it then you will change oppinion, it is not a phone for clubs but to use it

  • this phone is special , i use it like modem it is super, like phone also and as an mp3 congratulations toshiba

  • it is pathetic... do not have words to say ....yeeeaaakkk !!!

  • lol.... ugly

  • haha go toshiba for originality. This is sure to draw some attention... I would, however still go for something normal...

  • It looks like a remote control

  • If you wanna try 3G internet, but dont want to pay for all the other stuff, this is great. I bought a XDA exec with all the functionality possible, which turned out to be just a fad. After having it a month or so, I never used any of the features I paid for. I'm buying this to go from one extreme to the other. I wanna keep it simple!

  • Obviously this is designed for users who primarily use their phone as an HSDPA modem. So the key factor in this phone is the HSDPA feature. Good idea by Toshiba. As for ppl who laugh, please learn before you post.

  • WTF??? xD this looks like craP!!!! hahahaaa... lol! the design looks more like a crappy mp3 player!!! xD looks like rubbish!

  • hi guyssssss dont wast ur money plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz­zzz crapppppppppp this is not a mobile this is toy bye

  • It won't work

  • what happens if you go to a country that the network is not on the list of preferred networks for the phone?

  • it is a special product. i have use this with gprs - and 3g and it is the best, also as a phone it is a disign with secial looking. cogratoulations toshiba

  • I am using this phone very small and sleek. But poor battery. Any body can help how to dispose the phone?

  • It's a 3G modem with phone capability. Comparing with other phone is simply a no brainer because there's nothing to compare with. Not completely pointless but it does makes sense in some way, although it lacked alot of stuff.

  • This one only use thr 3g band for surfing on internet by the notebook. So that you can surfing more speedly..

  • What is that

  • this fone is 3G? how can that be when it doesn't have a camera? that is strange. other that, it doesn't look that bad. bit strange; but there are some strange fones out there.

  • it's a very good phone i want buy one.

  • Toshiba sells some incredible phones in Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Japan. Those are beutiful, thin, capable, and high quality. This is not one of them.

  • wierd but cool

  • Whatever that "thing" is looks like it's just came outta Star Trek!!!

  • reminds me of my siemens xelibri 1. would look classy in a different colour combo.

  • no half way there mp3 player interface, no humunguous cheating price, and no tall claims about battery life. does what it says makes calls, messages, acts as a modem n got enough space for songs to play for a jogging session. now if only they would make it waterproof and a bit shock resistant.

  • it is a phone that will be liked and bought by people for its functionality and no nonsense approach. it is on e of the smallest phones available (good in the pocket while jogging, also don't see no phone that does that)most are too bulky n big. this phone delivers on what it says , none of the nonsensical 15 fps video,crappy 10sec interval between shot photos

  • wow it's really hidious.... how on earth did they come up with such a bad design??? seriously, give it to anyone on the street and 99% of them will be staring at it dumbfounded for a while as to what on earth they are holding....

  • damn!! i didnt know such ugly things were made...the ppl who made this fone should be embarassed... the battery and the features arent good...nothing is good abt this fone

  • this not a phone ..its an stick//i will never take such a phone, its design is not good ...

  • I'm using it as my second phone. It's fantastic. What U want more voice, txt, mp3 and fast modem. And really cool design

  • ecxelent ecxelent really it is nice , good , and with many extras, it is a phone, also it is a mp3, and it is a modem .3 in 1. ggod very good

  • Now this is something that's quite revolting for the usual-fone lovers. The design is really insane. Most people wont like it, but as for me, it's cool..

  • this phone is not at all a phone its nothing but a long stick NO HoMO that u just put # on what the hell were they thinking when they did this. i don't have the phone and will never never ever ever get that dame phone thank you and have a nice day.

  • cool..i'll go for this im looking for the design, dont care bout the spec..

  • goodness gracious! what phone is this?! it doesn't even look like a phone! it looks like more our remote control!
