Rating: Summary: A Great Phone Review: The battery can last for over 2 days. The screen is very clear. The phone is very small, but it is a little difficult to press some of the buttons, especially the two at the top near the Menu button. I especially like the button on the side that can be used to automatically make a choice. It also have the feature where you can say someone's name to pull up their number, though it has some trouble telling similar words apart.
Rating: Summary: A Great Phone at a Great Price... Review: The price on this phone was the biggest draw. Voice dial, the vibrate option, and the variety of ring tones (and the ability to create your own!!) were key features. The menu is easy to navigate and can be personally (re)arranged. The volume, both ring and in-call, are strong and clear (I wish I could say as much for our Samsung S105). The phone is also weighs very little, yet the keys are still easy to punch (even with average sized man hands) and the display is easy to read (it has a magnify option if you want things bigger. My only reservation about the phone is the overall construction. It does not feel as solid as the Samsung S105 when opening and closing. With that said, I have had no problems using it for the past month; it's just a difference I've noticed that I hope doesn't lead to problems later on. Overall, this is a great phone if you want a solid phone without some of the frills and come-ons of some of many newer phones (ie, color screens, cameras, etc.) Also, if you purchase this phone also order the premium leather case Amazon offers. It is by far the best fitting and highest quality case on the market and is an actual Motorola product (I looked high & low and found nothing better or the same item cheaper anywhere else).
Rating: Summary: maybe bigger is a little better Review: The small size of the phone is convenient, and so far the key pad and display size have not hindered my use of the phone. However, the reception is not very good, in part due to the high degree of background noise through the phone and especially through the ear bud. Perhaps reception issues are due also to the small antenna, but that's just my guess. If you're in the market for a cheap, small, flip phone and are willing to upgrade your ear bud, then this phone should do the trick.

Rating: Summary: Comact, Long Battery life and very easy to use Review: This is nice little toy and very easy to use. It is not a expensite state of the art technology. My phone dropped atleat 30 times on the floor/road, but still works great(yah..there were some scratches because it was dropped).I love this phone. I got new T610 phoen, but still love to use this phone.
Rating: Summary: Solid performer, but behind the times now Review: This thing is a workhorse. I've dropped it several times and it's still working well. It's tiny, which I love. Disappears into your pocket. Great if you just want a small phone for low to moderate usage. There are some drawbacks (aren't there always!) Biggest one, and I've seen others with the same complaint, it ain't loud enough!! I have to crush this thing into my ear to hear anything if I'm in a noisy area. That sucks cuz there's just nothing you can do. This phone is behind the times for sure ... no ringtones, no color screen, no camera, etc.
Rating: Summary: Small Phone with Features Review: We have two of these phones. The volume is best if you put the tip of the phone into your ear. It feels a bit funny at first. It works worldwide, which is handy. We took one to Mexico so people could reach us for emergencies. You *cannot* download ringtones to it. The biggest gripe is the SIM card cover. We bought a decorative cover so we could tell the two apart. The original fits loosely at best and it won't stay on at all after you remove and replace it once or twice.
Rating: Summary: It's small... Review: While I don't live in NYC, I do live in a town with 250,000 people that is clearly covered by T-Mobile's coverage area map. I can't reliably use this telephone in my neighborhood (inside the city). It is embarrassing to get an important call and not get enough reception to have an intelligible conversation. I have talked to T-Mobile, who says, "Sorry, we don't make the phones." They are willing to give me $50 off a new phone, but that's off the list price (which nobody pays). The phone is small, but that's about all I can say for it. Wait until the rebate pays you $200 to take it, so you can use the money to terminate your T-Mobile contract.
