I Love It

Overall Rating:
4 out of 5
By: Mark Mende on Thursday, September 06, 2007
From: Canton, NY (United States)
Experience: 6 Months
Pros: Better reception than my more expensive LG and Nokia phones.

Cons: None

Summary: I have nothing but good things to say about this phone. It is clearly not top of the line, but hey, if you don't know that before you buy, you're not paying attention.

Horrible Phone

Overall Rating:
1.7 out of 5
By: jolie hines on Wednesday, August 08, 2007
From: charlotte, NC (United States)
Experience: 11 Months
Pros: The battery seemed to last long throughout the day.

Cons: everything else

Summary: I feel that this phone is a "S*** Piece". In the beginning everything was good, but now it freezes up when ever you are inserting either a text message, or a phone number. The antenna came off because the ridges became stripped, and the phone has now blackened out.


I would not recommend this phone to anyone, because of prior experience.

Great Cell Phone

Overall Rating:
4.2 out of 5
By: Tammy Skipper on Tuesday, September 26, 2006
From: Rocky Point, NC (United States)
Experience: 90 Days
Pros: Light weight small size

Cons: reception could be a little better

Summary: I recently bought a new Motorola flip phone ( model v190) it is a great phone it will surf the net text message and it is very easy to use. The only draw back from this phone is the reception is low in some areas.

As good as my ol' V60i with more stuff!

Overall Rating:
4.7 out of 5
By: Tommy Boy on Saturday, July 08, 2006
From: Alameda, CA (United States)
Experience: 45 Days
Pros: I like it all.

Cons: none I can find.

Summary: After two years of solid service with my V60i, I thought I'd move up.
This phone is not as tough as the 60 but is faster and just as easy to use.
Also one of the most advanced cell phones you can get without a camera and Bluetooth (thats why I got it). I had it unlocked in Chinatown at a cost of $10. and used a London SIM while traveling with no issue's. All works well!
