5.0 out of 5 stars
Best value phone out there!, 2 Sep 2006
I bought my Moto [...], and after a bit of getting of used to (after being a Nokia user for years) I can say i'm impressed all round. The looks for a start are excellent and very smart - lovely tin/metal case, and I got mine in black which looks even better. Being just a little thinner than the average pen makes it so so easy to put in out of a jeans pocket! The buttons are flat to so theirs no mistakingly pressing any buttons while its in your pocket (apart from the side buttons - lock the keypad!)
The blue backlight is again very smart, and the phone is fairly easy to use - nice menu layout, and clear graphics. The camera is excellent quality - people have slagged it off, but what they fail to understand is that its the phones' screen that makes the photos seem lesser quality. At 640 x 480 pixels, you could easily pay twice the price for a phone with the same quality camera. You can only see the true quality once on the computer (you can download Motorola Phone Tools, I managed to get it free). The 10mb is fine enough. Again, this has had criticism, but what do you expect for around £50? Its fine - photos only take up around 50kb! And even though it can play mp3's, its NOT designed to be an mp3 'player'.
The video is ok, obviously not the best quality for the price, but you can get make short 10 second videos which are good.
It has alot of clever features - the best I feel being the fact you can charge the phone via a computer, or a wall socket, because the phone only has 1 socket on it, that being a mini USB connector. The charge times are fantastic too, and you'll never really need to 'fully' charge it, because when your using your computer, you can simply just let it charge up!
Texting was strange at first - Nokia buttons seem more spaced out, but I'm confident using it now. A great feature is that, like predictive texting, when you type part of a word, like for example "coll" from the word college, the rest of the word will appear in ghost lettering. And by pressing the right button, you can insert the rest of the word, or you can keep texting - very handy! Plus, it remembers common words you use which is even better!
The 'smart' keys are also a great idea. Definately reccomended to people looking for a "next step up" phone. And [...] its surely one of the best value phones on the market, to have Bluetooth, a camera, video, mp3 playback... Get this now!

EASY AS EVER !!, 1 April 2006
I bought one of these phones and found that the ease of use was staggering. The navigation through the menu is as simple for the less technically minded of us.You can send and receive photographs, ringtones using the BLUETOOTH feature, thus meaning that anyone with a BLUETOOTH enabled phone could send and receive all of my downloaded ringtones and pictures free of charge, and and i theirs . They can get just about anything free !MOTOROLA in my opinion have come up with the business here ! As long as you don't want to cook a pie on the run this phone can do everything even make phone calls !! You can also SYNC with your P.C making this one of the easiest phones to upgrade and personalise. The phone is thinner than a Motorola V3 but about 1-2 CMs longer at the most, but the V3 is longer when in the open position !.You have video and MP3 quality sound.You can even print off your photo's !! I can't sing it's praises high enough.BUY ONE you will love it ! Hope this helps, David.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Good so far, 1 April 2006
By A Customer
Great phone so far not yet figured how to use everything. Only bought this due to the price, although Motorolas reliability is still out to question.Great VGA camera very detailed, picks up great sound when recording. Great facilities. Nice screen. USB connection to transfer to your computer. Powered through the USB. Nice and light phone easy to fit in jean pockets. Battery lasting good so far. Although the only problems have with the phone are the query over the motorolas lastibility but also never used a motorola before getting used to the setup with the accept and exit buttons being the wrong way round. Only 10mb of memory although not a problem unless you want to store things on the phone.
