6315 is a great device if you have the right operating system/software. it's true it has a small speaker problem, but it's easy to use, fun and stable. Wireless is easy to configure and connect, bluetooth works just fine. I am a little dissapointed by the processor and RAM... but it's a 2004 model.

dont mislead people. It works like 73% of the time withought wifi and with wifi on 34% of the time. A phone should work always not like that. I felt ashamed to sell it to an innocent person. I dont know how tmobile people didnt feel ashamed selling this crap.

I've found this device to be reasonably reliable, and I've used on the wifi capability often. The SW has its limitations but is generally adequate. The iPaq is prone to occasional application hangs requiring a reset/cold boot but by & large is an asset.

I read about this pda in this page. I knew it was full of bugs but I fell for it because the screen is huge. This is a good pda overall, good 4 movie clip, word et etc.... BUT IF YOU are planning on ever using wifi dont buy it. I REPEAT DON'T BUY IT. I upgraded everyting in it and wifi still dont work properly. using a wifi on this pda is your worst nightmare

HP iPAQ 6315 User Review
I got this phone like a year ago, and sold it for a Samsung.
Here's my review
DESIGN
PROS=
- Screen, definitely with the size good for internet. Works well under sunlight if you increase the brightness. (of course)
- Hot-swap memory card hole on the side, very handy.
- 2.5 mm jack on the top left side (+ converter) - applause!
CONS=
- Size, too bulky even for a PDA, feels like holding a brick.
- External antenna.. come on!
- Screen, too sensitive when you don't use a good case, the screen is exposed to everything and you'll have problems (alignments and all) in
no time.
- Hot-swap hole. I accidentally pressed the card and it jumped out and fell, and a buddy stomped on it!!! D'oh!
- 5-ways button under the screen is a wild goose chase. Useless.
- Speaker phone facing back is not loud enough, even at top volume. gets worse if you use a case, you won't hear a thing.
- Rubber material for side buttons are too weak. Use your nails and you'll never see them again.
FUNCTIONS & CAPABILITIES
PROS=
- It's a PDA! You can expect this thing to do whatever a PDA is supposed to. With a little extra softwares the only limit of the capabilities
is YOU. I've tried using it as a tv remote using IR..
- Expandability - being a PDA.
- Synchronizes amazingly and seamlessly with Outlook - no hassle.
- Wifi works great on hot spots.
- Handwriting recg. works great!
- Battery is among the best I've ever used. Lasted 10 hours of non stop mp3 play, plus a day more - I can't believe it.
CONS=
- Wifi sometimes conflicts with gprs. (I know, they're different, sometimes the IE still tries to connect through gprs even when i set
default conn to wifi)
- Camera is among the worst - if not THE worst.
- Speaker phone is hard to use.
- Signal is very poor.
- Closing apps does not close them.
- Hot swap memory card hangs a lot, often unreadable. Busted my 1G the last time.
OVERALL
PROS= It's a PDA + a phone, functions can be unbeatable, battery kicks a55!!
CONS= Looks ugly, filled with bugs, errors, glitches, hangs, involuntary resets, flaws you name it.
CONCLUSION.
Get a better PDA - or Plug and Pray on this one.

I had similar problems to you guys with software issues and reseting the handset all the time, but i brought a 1GB SD Card and now i love the Handset. It's the best, i use it all day and since i myself work in a mobile shop I think it's fantastic!!

I had been using the Hp IPaq 6300 series Pocket PC phone and it was my worst experience, used to hang up a lot and very bulky.
Also I started getting a lot of complains from my friends and associates that when they call me my mobile shows as swithed off.
There are only 2 good things about it 1) screen size is big 2) battery life is very long. other than that its going to be your worst phone. I still have that phone sitting at home coz I just didn’t have the heart to sell out this sick phone to some one else. If you still want to try it out I'll ship it out to you free.
If you really want a good Pocket Pc Phone go for the i-mates

I bought it 6 months ago. It works pretty good.
For those guys with daily reset issue: get the software HandySwitcher - it can remove the application from memory completely once you close the app. OS mobile 2003 can clear the memory even you close the app. That's why your device has to be reset everyday!

This is the most useless PDA / phone ever made. No body seems to have tested it in HP and the customers are part of their devTest team.

I've read the comments on this equiptment, and I can say that I'm relieved! I've had the device for less than 6 months, and I'm already have problems with it. It hard resets itself for no reason, and I've lost information 3 times already. Now, its "freezing" several times a day, and I have to do a soft reset. Not all blutooth headsets work well with this phone, and I've had people complain that they cannot hear me. The camera is also of poor quality, which surprises me. My $50 Nokia camera phone has a better picture quality.
I've very disappointed with this device, especially since its an HP brand. I'm back in the market looking for a replacement.

Hi everyone,
This phone is good, I have it since the 2y - the only problems I discoverd are: it cant be sanding via bluetooth all the file or ... has a normal phone + there is no software upgrade available. Regarding the lost of information...simply done - just do a backup from the utility option; therefore if it switch off because there is no charge left, you can always recover your things from the represtination option.
Ciao

Hey, all the bad comments before was just because they don't have the latest ROM version. . .
With my unit, I would say it's the best I ever had. . . Integration of QuadGSM/WiFi/Bluetooth/IrDA/DigCamera/MP3&Video Player . . .
What can you still ask for. . .

3. Always comes locked with T-Mobile and u cant take it outside US.
4. Too big in size.
