The Kyocera K126C is a candy bar type phone available with Net10. It is a compact yet useful phone that packs quite a few features despite its small size. Some of these useful features are:
- The K126C phone includes 300 minutes and 60 days of service on activation.
- It is a Single Rate phone charging 10¢ per minute for every call whether local, nationwide long distance or roaming. International calls to over 60 destinations 15 are available for just 15¢. Messaging charges are only 5¢ per message.
- The phone has a black and white colour filter display which is pretty clear and readable and resolution of 96 x 64 pixels.
- The phone is basically a nice compact and sturdy phone having the following dimensions: 104 x 46.5 x 16.5 mm. Kyocera K126C has a pretty light weight only weighing 2.68 oz or just 76 gm.
- The phone offers multilingual options in the form of Spanish and English, another unexpected but useful feature.
- The usual and essential features like caller ID, call waiting and voicemail are also present.
- The feature of text messaging is also quite good and comes along with the EZI dictionary which may not be T9 but serves the purpose pretty well.
- The phone also comes with a handsfree speaker for those numerous calls during the long drives.
- Apart from that, the phone is hearing aid compatible rating M-3.
- The usual extras include Alarm, Scheduler, Calculator, Timer, Stopwatch and World Clock.
- This phone also packs the surprising option of voice activated dialing.
- The phonebook can store up to 150 entries which is quite good for such a basic and compact phone.
- 10 polyphonic ringtones are also a part of the package.
- The battery is powerful giving a maximum of 3 hours of talktime and 9 days of standby time.
Some of the not so good features of this phone are:
- The phone is very basic and lacks features and may appear dull to many.
- The network is not as strong and does not have a wide coverage like a CDMA phone.
- Although individually, the talktime and standby time look pretty impressive but once you combine them both, the battery dies out quite fast.
The Kyocera K126C is the phone for you if you want a basic phone that you want to use only for calling and texting. But even with such few features it easily out does the Motorola C139.
