No one at Amazon, AT&T or Motorola in US or Canada could help me. I have owned the Motorola V190 before and they are a good little phone. However, this phone was listed as US Version when in fact it was Canadian. Therefore I am sending the phone back. Also it was suppose to be black and it was all silver.
This is a good phone, working well and not to difficult to figure out as for the features, even for a first time cell phone owner. This phone was my first cell phone. I bought my SIM card and minutes and everything worked fine. yes I was one of the last person in NJ to never have owned a phone before. I wanted a phone, not a gadget to surf the internet, etc. The SIM card Amazon provides as a UK phone number. so I prefered to buy one from the US.
This phone is perfect for someone looking for a basic phone with no frills. It arrived in a timely manner and works great.
This phone is a very practical one, nice size screen and it fits nicely in your hands. I really like that. The weak pionts on this phone are; its missing is a camera, you should have different fonts to choose from and you should have been able to put you name on display like the nokia cell phone.
You also need the user manual for the manufacturer set PIN and other security #s to initially access the phone's functions. Many low end unlocked phones are last year's new but excess inventory for a service provider and will have their logo and service icons on the phone.
can't repeat item for a limited number of days)Speakerphone not that loudCan't list multiple #s under one person's name in phone listings. (fax, cell, work, etc).Graphics not that elegant but functionalUser manual really doesn't cover the more subtle functional capability of this phone.Overall, the best buy in a basic flip cell phone.
Pros:Battery Life (with the 1100 mah battery probably the best for a cell phone)Display brightness and colorKey spacing and tactile feelSignal sensitivity (much better than my other high end Nokia 6126, having a stub helps with signal reception vs those which attempt to hide the antenna)Smart Keys (make key functions for you accessible with one button - calculator, recent calls, etc).Voice Dial (pretty good for a basic phone, but limited to about 7 contacts)Built like a tank (durable)Highly visible outside screen (even in bright sunlight)Not having to work in all the other gimmicks (camera, MP3) allows more focus to be placed on basic phone feature quality.Cons:Functionality of datebook limited (ex. The service provider has to set them up to provide multimedia, web access and other services.
A steal at $40 - $50. Obviously not for the person who wants a camera, radio, MP3 player, photo album, etc., etc., etc.Note: unlocked phones will only provide voice and text messaging services on any GSM network.
This is typical. User manuals can be found online at the manufacturer's web site.
