Rating: Summary: Why the opposite sex loves V600 Review: V600 is the best, most expensive cell phones I have ever had and I soon realized that both men and women like it. Before I give the reason, here are the pros and cons I have experienced so far.PROS: 1) Free, nice looking ear piece was delivered with my item. 2) With headset plugged in, calls can be answered without having to open (or even touch) the phone ! 3) You can use it as a modem and for faxes! 4) Pictures taken from its camera are decent when you see them on the large phone display. 5) Plays very clear sounds and videos 6) Built in Voice dialling feature is a real cool feature. 7) Datebook, calculators and capability to receive free text messages (on AT&T) can make you much more organized 8) mMode subscription (AT&T) to surf the web can make you very productive. CONS: 1) For AT&T customers, having the mMode key same as the general select key is a major problem. If you accidentally press the mMode key, the browser will launch and you will be charged for the data transfer. This is ABOMINABLE! Almost feels like a trap to make customers pay for web access even if they don't want to. 2) The user guide is 250 pages long! It takes time to understand all the phone features. 3) I had a little difficulty in putting my SIM card in. 4) The top display is very small and has blue background which makes it difficult to read. Overall, a very good buy. It is almost a PDA at the cost of a cell phone. CONCLUSION: A great gift for your significant other. While the men will love it for all the cool features and a chance to use some real complex ones like faxes, women will love it for its smooth top and chic look.

Rating: Summary: Amazon is great.. phone is great, just say away from AT&T Review: WARNING: AT&T representatives ("Dawn: R361" and "Max: N360") themselves said during my troubleshooting (as detailed below) that I should NOT have bought through Amazon, and that they have received a barrage of complaints from Amazon buyers! I still really like Amazon, but they're integration with AT&T is non existent. People should not have to wait 2-3 days for service after they receive the phone. Buy the same phone on Amazon, but a different carrier.
Rating: Summary: Nice Unique phone with loads of Fun Features Review: Within the hour and a half it took me to set up and have the phone activated, i spent the next 5 or six hours customizing it with all my features, not to say those six hours were tedious becuase they were not. All i did was buy a USB Bluetooth PC adapter (the one from Belkin is great), paired it with my phone(which was easy), and i just trimmed down some of my MP3's to a few seconds and loaded them all to the phone wirelessly, then i was jamming to high quality MP3's, no more lously polyphonic rings for me (saves me money too, no more paying to download ring tones). As for the phone itself the reception is good, i am not the most experienced in cell phone usage, so i don't really have anythng to compare the service to, but it does whats it is supposed to do and i have no complaints (so far anyway). The navigation is intutitve, and the phone looks and feels sturdy and professional but trendy at the same time. All in all the phone is great and the fact that i can put my favorite songs (and not just the ones that are popular) and customize the look and feel of my phone to a Tee is an extra wonderful bonus. Get this phone, i doubt you will regret it.
