This Unlocked Cell Phones give to us some advantages, like this :
1. Not worth the price by any means
Enterprise blah, blah, blah... This is an antiquated, obsolete, overpriced piece of junk. Microsoft stopped supporting mobile 6x on 1/8/13. This "phone" won't run anything else because of the processor. It's slow and the OS is BAD, really bad. If you switch apps (which can happen because of the keyboard), everything you just typed vanishes and you have to start over. Apps don't close even if you hit the X, and you have to terminate them using the app manager. It constantly locks up and you have to press 1+9+power to reboot it. The touch screen is as responsive as a car on ice. The keyboard is laid out badly with the "home" key between the Fn key & the space bar + other bad key placements. I have the extended battery on mine and it still won't last past lunch time. I work in a metropolitan area and if it goes into roaming it almost never reconnects to my carrier (unless I reboot). The scanner works great, but if you lose your data connection, what good is it? It's nothing but a scanner...
2. Motorola ES400. Troubles.
One star because Amazon does not allow zero stars.
The phone really is bad.
My company has a fleet of these and the problems are not with just the one phone that I was issued.
I've had mine for two weeks. Lost count of the times I've had to reboot.
If the phone falls asleep on it's own I have to hold down 1,9 and press the power button to reboot.
3 times in the last hour. I have had it lock up while in a call and then had to reboot.
I don't know if it's the hardware or the Windows Mobile 6.5 OS, but trying to use the phone for anything is pure frustration.
If you use it for emails or texting, be prepared to spend a great deal of time back spacing and retyping.
As you're typing the phone falls behind about 6 or 7 characters.
Do a search for Motorola ES400 and read the horror stories.
Motorola makes great phones.
I'm not sure what went wrong here. I hope they are able to offer firmware and software updates...

ES400 comercial handheld with phone functionality at great price
First of let me say that when you buy this as phone with $500+ price, your expectations set with comparison to iphone or galaxy etc. If you are looking for fancy phone with ultra responsive to touches then this one is not for you.
Industrial handhelds are very expensive and comes in variety of configuration. This one is with most of functionality required by people in field operations or supply chain operations.
This phone device is very handy, smart looking as compared to other handhelds with brick size and weight. It is loaded with bar code reader, GPS, wifi, camera and fingure print scanner.
This is an ideal unit for order taking, retail floors price verification, remote site inspections with realtime data transfers.
