Strengths: Many outstanding features. Nice geek toy.

Weaknesses: Many horrible bugs--Absolutely dismal ATT support

Summary: These phones are very easy to fall in love with. The 8525 is very buggy and the 8925 is only marginally better. The white screen of death, car charger doesn?t work, and charge indicator locks until reset are some of the problems. All features can misbehave or hang intermittently. Sometimes it even forgets how to be a phone. I support four of these devices and all have been replaced at least once. Two were replaced three times each. Since they have more bugs than I care to recount, at some point you will need to talk to ATT support. ATT has a telephone hamster wheel where they make you spin for hours and in one case for two weeks. ATT support is a huge bucket of ice water on your love affair with this phone. The support staff is both clueless and careless. Users love these phones when they are working. But for me, however, I rue the day I saw that phone. ATT has consumed too much of my life and I hate those phones.

Strengths: Does everything, GPS, wi-fi, etc.

Weaknesses: battery lasts one day

Summary: GPS woks great with google maps, My auto GPS maps are 3 years old but these are new. Good reception, every feature you can think of. (could use a foward facing camera for web cam) Camera has good quality but a long delay from when you click.
