For the price, this phone is amazing! What it lacks in features it makes up for in design...The front panel indicator makes it very clear when you receive a text or call, and the battery life on this thing is amazing!!
If your on a budget, and not too bothered about fancy features....Just a nice looking, good quality phone, that hardly ever needs charging, look no further!!
-
The predictive text is a bit slow, and if your a fast typer it can get confused....
Also, no bluetooth or infared.
But then again, it is cheap as chips!

It is a poor quality phone, freezes up often, texting is an absolute nightmare.You have to text really slowly else it gets itself all confused and jumbles the whole text up. I mainly text so this is a big problem, so much so i'm considering replacing the phone. I've had severa; Motorolas now and have liked them all, but this is the worst phone I've had to date.

It looks and feels good - as long as you don't want to use it!! It's absolutely fine if you just want to speak on the phone and will regularly top up your battery but no good for texting.
-
Messaging facility if awful. There is no option to add words to a dictionary so you have to come in and out of predictive text to spell words which is very frustrating. The predictive set up is not clear and the keypad is not very sensitive to touch so you often have to go back and start again. The keypad is not clear for which buttons to use and when messaging I have regularly lost messages when trying to scroll along the predicitve words. The manual is useless and does not give any useful amount of information. Battery life is poor and you cannot use the phone when it is plugged into the charger - it seems to block all facilities.

Predictive text is a huge weakness. E.g. a single press on the 'abc' key in any other phone I've used will put and 'a' up - this one gives either c or b, and it offers an apostrophe (surely an under used character in the world of text) as its first offering on the punctuation button.
Can't find car accessories easily.
