 mand123's recommendation | |
Thin
Looks OK when closed
Good size screen
Good picture quality
HUGE when open, and much wider than others on the market
It is difficult to text with long fingernails
Complicated navigation (I'm used to Nokia's)
I was initially interested in the Motorola V3i as I haven't previously had a flip phone, and I decided to voyage into the unknown. I wish I hadn't bothered! If I'd know that a flip phone would double the size of the phone making it feel like the mobile phone 'bricks' of yesteryear, then I wouldn@t have bothered.
Being used to the Nokia's easy navigation, this was very difficult to use, with confusing messages popping up on screen about how much memory has been used when I didn't know I'd even done anything to use any?! Bizarre! I couldn't get on with the texting methods in predictive text either.
On the plus side, the camera picture quality was good. However, that's not really the main feature I need from a phone. I have a camera that does that job perfectly!
If you're used to Nokia's then steer clear. If you want to keep more than 20 messages in the memory, then also steer clear.
The V3i has since gone back...!
