- I'm very disappointed with the battery life. Although I'm in a weak signal area the battery just about lasts for 4 days without making any calls. I bought this as a replacement for a 3 year old Samsung that when new could last well over a week and could still manage 4 days between charges when it broke (I fell, broke a rib and my phone!!!). I think for my next phone I'll go back to Samsung.

+ This, in my opinion, is a really first class phone. It must be right at the top and I have owned approx. 5/6 phones in my time. Please keep the clamshell design on your porfolio, it does work well and more convenient when held to your ear. The earphone is at your ear and the voice mike is close to your mouth (cuts down on loud "phone voice").

Emma, Dolwyddelan , “seeds-of-light.co.uk”

Score 7.0/10

+ Cheap and reliable, battery life pretty good and reception good too.

- Clunky looking, though slim. Navigation takes getting used to - its not as easy to find your way around and do commom things like the previous sharp phone I had.

So, after 18 months or so cleaning up in the style stakes, it was with some anticipation that we looked forward to the release of Motorola's update that's set up to deliver third generation services - the RAZR V3x.
