Cellular Phone Forum / Providers / Verizon / April 2004Whick phones have analog now?
You used to be able to select phones from the website according to mode. They removed that feature and in fact do not mention analog capability in their phone description. Analog is very important to me for safety. Do you have to go to the manufactures websites now to find out? Go here: http://www.phonescoop.com/carriers/carrier.php?c=2 Scroll down to CDMA/AMPS Cary S.

I am sure they want to downplay this as much as possible from here on out. There will probably be more and more new phones without AMPS capability coming into the market.

Analog is very important to me for safety. > Do you have to go to the manufactures websites now to find out? the V60s has analog. It's tri-mode. >You used to be able to select phones from the website according to mode. >They removed that feature and in fact do not mention analog capability >in their phone description.

If by safety you mean the ability to contact 911, then your best bet is to find a used AMPS phone (the Motorola 300 comes to mind, as I have 3 sitting here now), and use it as a backup to whatever digital only phone you may select. Sure, it's a bit of a PITA, but you will have AMPS if you need it, and you won't have to subscribe to a line of service on the AMPS phone if all you use it for is contacting 911. Be sure to pick up a car charger for it, and maybe a spare battery, too. If they say "all Digital" in the description, they do not have analog. > You used to be able to select phones from the website according to mode. > They removed that feature and in fact do not mention analog capability > in their phone description. Analog is very important to me for safety. > Do you have to go to the manufactures websites now to find out? audiovox CDM8900 and motorola T730 are both analog and digital. This is my phone (audiovox) and my husband's. We had to get with analog because in our house, signal switches back and forth from digital to analog. Just went through the research looking to replace my daughter's Cingular TDMA with a Verizon clamshell phone. Here is what I've found: Analog Capable Motorola V60S yes Audiovox CDM8600 yes Samsung SCH-A530S no LG VX4400B yes LG VX4600 no LG VX4500 no LG VX6000 no Audiovox CDM8900 yes Samsung SCH-A610 no Mototola T730 yes LG VX3100L yes > You used to be able to select phones from the website according to mode. > They removed that feature and in fact do not mention analog capability > in their phone description.
