5 Stars Inexpensive brand-new quickly delivered battery
This replaced my aging battery and now my Blackberry works like new. And this battery was a fraction of the cost from other suppliers.

4 Stars So far so good
The battery came on an open little plastic bag; it did not come with any instructions or any info at all. The product was sold as “new” but who knows if it was new. So far it is charging fine and holding the charge for a good amount of time. I assume it was almost new, and for the price I think it is fine.

I would advice to the seller to put a little note inside indicating that the product is new/used, or that the info of the product was not included for whatever reason.

So far so good.

3 Stars Product received on time/Shipping excessive charge
I got the product on time. The only issue is that I wanted to buy more but the shipping price did not change. I was buying a small item 4.95 and paying $2.50 EACH for shipping is silly.

I was going to buy 10 and since the shipping did NOT change to something sensible (meaning NOT $2.50 PER item) I only bought one.

Webtreo should figure this out. I would have bought more if they were sensible on their shipping charges.

5 Stars works just like manufacturer battery in 1/7th the price
Before deciding on buying this OEM battery I checked prices on all OEM/manufacturer batteries but this was the cheapest option.

It gives me battery life equivalent of a manufacturer warranty but I only had to pay $10 instead of $70+ for a manufacturer battery.

5 Stars Good Charge
mine arrived with a good charge, it was not an expired battery so overall i was very happy with the condition it arrived in.

Scratch Proof Cell Phone LCD Screen Protector for Sprint Samsung Instinct

Scratch Proof Cell Phone LCD Screen Protector for Sprint Samsung Instinct

1 Star Don’t waste your money!
I purchased this product. I can tell you right now. DON’T waste your money. The product doesn’t work.

1 Star Junk.
This is next to impossible to place unless you are a brain surgeon! And even if you DID manage to get it on properly, the sticker that is 1/2 hanging off the edge and 1/2 stuck the screen protector- which is meant to HELP you guide it into place would not come off! It left that sticker residue stuff on it and we had to throw the whole thing out…..

5 Stars Great Product
It’s not often that you purchase a product that does EXACTLY what it says and is better than expected. This screen protector is far superior to the one I purchased from the Sprint store! This screen cover is totally clear, does not scratch and does not peel off unless you want it to! Fantastic product!

A Note: When applying, start at the bottom of your phone but leave a little space between the cover and the metal surrounding the screen. I would say the space should be about the distance of the thickness of three sheets of printer paper. The reason for this is so the top part of the cover (with the hole for the speaker) will align with the speaker. If you start at the bottom and don’t leave any space…you will find that the protector’s pre-cut speaker hole will not match up perfectly.

4 Stars Works Great – but difficult to apply
First the good: This is a very durable protector. I have it on my Instinct for about a month and the phone is constantly in and out of my pocket – not a real scratch on the protector yet.

Now the one star penalty: I would have given this 5 stars except for the warnings below. Due to necessity, this cover is an EXACT fit for the front of the Instinct. Yes, you can remove and reposition it if necessary (but read the second warming). Your best bet is to start at the top of the phone where the speaker hole is – it has a bit of a ridge around the opening – and if the protector is not lined up exactly over that ridge – it will not “seat” down all the way. If you start to apply the protector, and are 1/2 of degree off – it won’t fit correctly. This may not be a problem for the pre-middle-age crowd – but between my eyesight and not exactly rock-steady hands – this was quite the challenge :-)

Second warning – the instructions say to apply the protector in a dust free environment. Read that as “Clean Room” or Neurosurgery OR type clean. Because the phone case and the protector are plastic – a high degree of static is present. Even the smallest speck of dust that gets in between the phone and protector will cause a “bubble” under the protector. If you see dust floating in the air in the sunbeams coming in your window – better find a better place. This issue becomes worse if you (as mentioned above) have to peel back or remove the protector to reposition – each time you peel back the protector – it creates more static (like rubbing a balloon on a carpet)- so it seems to actually attract the dust from the air – right in between the protector and the phone….

But all in all, I will buy another when this one wears out – I’ll just be much more careful and patient during the application….

5 Stars Awesome
This product does exactly what it says, it protects my instinct screen from scratches, fingerprints and makeup smudges. It does not hinder the sensitivity of the touch screen, and it doesn’t make it any harder to see the screen. It is not as reflective as the mirrored protector, but it does not claim to be, so I was very pleased with this purchase.

Just how easy is it to locate cell phone number owner details and why is it that you might have reason to do this in the first place as normally most people that you know will have given you their number.
