It is very simple to assemble the K126c. You start with the Battery, Phone, and the Back cover. The battery has three contacts that match up with the three contacts on the phone. Kyocera K126c Menu

The contact end of the battery goes into the phone first. Then you press the battery into the cavity. The Back cover goes on next. The little tab on the top of the cover goes into the phone, then the cover snaps down on.

The Battery for the Kyocera K126 is the Kyocera model TXBAT10133 CV90-N3344-05. It is a 3.7 volt 900mAh. I have found this battery excellent at holding a charge. I have had my phone on for over a week without it running out of juice. Batteries tend to last a lot longer in the basic phones because the simple screen and lack of accessories do not pull as much juice.

The charger hole is on the very bottom of the phone you can see it is the second hole below the tip of the pen in the picture on the left.

K126 Availability

This phone will be available where only a CDMA network works and not the GSM networks. This phone will not be for sale if you live in an area where AT&T or T-Mobile work (they are both GSM networks). If you would rather have your Net10 or Tracfone work on the Verizon, or Alltel network you can purchase the CDMA version by putting a Montana zip code like 59601 in for the area you are going to use the phone. This would be when buying from the NET10 or Tracfone websites. The Kyocera K126c Menu on the Tracfone and the Net10 phones are identical.

Net10 K126c

The K126 from Net10 is usually about $15 or $20 more than the Tracfone version but when you activate it you get 300 minutes. Unless you use less than 100 minutes per month the Net10 prepaid deal is probably a better plan for you than the Tracfone. Link from Kyocera K126c Menu to Net10 and get 300 minutes Free!
