Motorola M3788 Reviews

I have a Motorola M3788 on One2One, and I've had it for nearly 2 months now. The first thing I noticed was the lack of features such as musical ringtones and games. But I've soon come to realise that I don't need these. I would probably spend most of the battery life trying out all the ring tones, and most of them would annoy ...  Read the complete review

This is my own personal phone. You may have read my article on the Alcatel phone, that is my sons phone. He got his after mine. My main criteria for a phone was it had to be cheap, on a reasonable pay as you go tariff and also durable. I plumped for this Motorola phone and on the Orange network. My son assured me that the Orange network ...  Read the complete review

I bought this mobile a few months ago for just £30, which included a £5 Talktime. The price of this phone is a lot less than nearly all others around at the moment but it has very few features like downloadable ringtones, games or even a clock, and is rather big and bulky. The features that you have got are, however, sufficient for most and on ...  Read the complete review

2 months old and my Motorola has died. Motorola asked me to get it ready to be collected, then it wasnt collected (1 wasted day in). Then they needed all the information again, and another day staying in until it was finally collected 5 days after reporting the fault - oh and i have to stay in all day thursday to accept delivery of a (hopefully) ...  Read the complete review

Presumably by reading this opinion you may have some intention of purchasing this glorious piece of high-technology. It'll set you back a few week's wages, but boy, is it worth it! I kid you. The M3788 is quite possibly the most basic mobile phone still currently available on the high street and through mail order. What is the ...  Read the complete review

This is a good budget phone, it has many features including text messages, numerous ring tones and others. it is built like a tank and would be ideal if you have dropped your phone and broken it in the past. The features you can use depend on the tariff that you are on. there is a silent mode for public places and a good battery life. the ...  Read the complete review

If you are a first time buyer of mobile phone you might be attracted to this phone because it is so cheap, but do not be to eager to get it. The phone is cheap but basically you get what you pay for. It is a basic phone with few features. It has sms but that is about it. It includes 11 ringtones. It is a large heavy phone which might be alright ...  Read the complete review

We recently got this phone for my wife after we had been sharing a Motorola Montreal. (A bit of history required here). The Montreal came under various names depending which network you were buying it for. They were Montreal, C520 and D520, if I remember right. These were very similar to the M3788, except an annoying feature when ...  Read the complete review

I only bought this, my first ever mobile phone, on Monday, and it has already proved itself as being a superb little phone at a bargain basement price. It cost just £29.99, from Morrisons, which is the cheapest pre-pay phone available anywhere. It is on the Orange network's "Just Talk" tariff (read my review of this now on ...  Read the complete review

The Motorola M3788 is realy easy to use. It comes with a clear hand book and you should be able to make a call with in minutes of inserting your smart card.

There is an easy to use Menu Feature ...  Read the complete review

I can't claim to be an expert here, as this is a relatively recent acquisition (£25 from Safeway, if you must know) but it seems a very good kicking-off point for anyone, like me, who has previously resisted mobile phones. It is not chic, dinky or trendy, so if these things matter to you, stop here. I think that form should follow ...  Read the complete review

I've owned this phone, connected to Orange, for about 18 months now, so i've had quite a lot of use out of it. As a basic phone for someone doesn't use it a lot, it's not too bad, but if you plan to use the phone a lot, i suggest you look elsewhere. Unlike most phones, the battery does not attach on to the back. Instead, ...  Read the complete review

I have wanted to purchase a mobile phone for quite a while, but wanted to wait until I could get really cheap. Then I spotted a poster at work advertising a Motorola M3788 on the Orange network for £24.99 including £5.00 worth of free calls. I thought that this would be ideal so purchased it. It is quite a basic phone but is ...  Read the complete review

Although this particular model performs most functions adequately, there are some shortfalls where SMS messaging is concerned. When a message is received, it is possible to reply to the sender. This is a feature that is now present on the majority of SMS enabled phones. However, the problem arises when you want to send a message ...  Read the complete review

I've had my Motorola for 10 months now. I purchased it just after my car broke down on bonfire night last year and I wasn't near a payphone. I realised that even if I bought one for emergencies only, it would be worth it. It is a basic phone in many ways, but 'touch wood' it's reliable. I wish it had a lot more decent ring ...  Read the complete review

I like this phone. This is the kind of phone you want to buy when your mum asks your opinion on "Whats the best mobile phone,son" this phoen is very easy to use with little room for flare. I dont believe it comes with detachable facias and fancy tune or pop-out bits, however it does have excellent reception and ...  Read the complete review

This motorola 3788 phone is very average and is only for people who won't use their phones much and will not be wanting many features. It has a limited amount of ring tones compared to other phones and doesn't have any games on it like the Nokia ones. Saying that, it is very cheap and available on pay as you go for between £35 and £50 ...  Read the complete review

I'm constantly on my mobile, and I've had this one since february. I don't know why people don't like it - it's really reliable. It's got a very good battery life - it stays on standby for up yo 100 hours when it's fully charged. I've got one2one and the reception I get is v.good, better than my my sister's, ...  Read the complete review
