User Reviews for Motorola V3i Cell Phone (GSM, Bluetooth, 1.23MP, MicroSD/Transflash)

    Duration of ownership: 4 Months

    Strengths: This phone is a head turner, has a good reception capablity, best security features,big and clear screen and third party java softwares can be installed...plus the strong mechanism...it is a wow..

    Weaknesses: not so good camera....i am not able to shoot the bright places...and the average sound quality..message storage restrictions...

    Overall Evaluation: Except looks, no one was appriciating this phone much. that is because of the lack of awareness. I say,.this is not a basic phone..it is a feature rich one, but you will have to find and use it, such as password protected directries for personal files, great short cuts, best third party softwares..(i have entire Bible in this fone and i am reading it.wow!) alarm is so good...message interface is great..having expandable memory..if you take snaps in sepia tones, that will be super good...and it looks like a bundle of joy to carry.Strong machanism,that can be campared with german engineering...you can flip it thousand times,,it is still strong! Moreover, Motorola got a second life in many countries by this one single fone, and Nokia lost much of a market share because of this one tiny miracle! We thought motorola's chapter is over in India,they have proved us wrong...they stand tall...
