Motorola V525

A few months ago I was offered a free upgrade to a Motorola v525 with my Vodafone contract. It had all the features of my Sony Ericsson t68i plus a camera and a few other bits and bobs so I thought I’d give it a go and sold my t68i on eBay….so I’ll share my experiences with you! I was fairly pleased with the phone when it arrived as it looks pretty stylish; predominantly silver with a metallic midnight blue section on the front (which actually is metal). The only complaint I’d have about the appearance is the aerial – I didn’t have one on the t68i so initially it felt more like a downgrade. As with most (if not all?) Motorola phones the v525 is a flip ...  Read the complete review

For a while I?ve wanted to return to my review writing but just as I thought some spare writing time was created I?d remember some coursework that wasn?t done or a test I needed to revise for but anyway here I am returning during my brief break from hectic revision for my upcoming exams. I wanted my returning review to be good and something I could review well and I admit that most of the old spare time was spent pondering over what I could review as I have so many ideas for so many products. I finally came to the decision of my new baby ? my Motorola V525, its something close to me and something I feel I can offer a strong opinion about. I bought this phone at ...  Read the complete review

Like many, I had never considdered Motorolla as a viable alternative to my trusty Nokia and SonyEricsson handsets. Yet my first encounter with this phone left me so impressed I went out and bought it. Motorolla have never gained the same foothold in the European market as they have in the States, which I feel is a shame as they are often overlooked in favor of European champions Nokia. It was while I was complaining one day about the minuscular keypad on my SonyEricsson T610, with which I would press 2 or 3 buttons simultaneously and hence missdial or cut someone off, that an American colleague placed the V525 on my desk for me to 'play ...  Read the complete review

The Motorola V547 is a neat clam style compact phone which has a video & camera, as well as many other features. At £130 it well worth the money, but if you keep your old sim card & are with O2, then the price is just £119. On the front of the phone the time is shown either in 24hr or digital, you can also see how much battery & signal power you have. When you open up the phone it lights up, the first thing you see is the colour screen. To access some of the phones features, please press the button right at the top of the phone pad right in the centre just under the screen. Here you are presented with another screen of options which you access by pressing ...  Read the complete review

Just got this new phone and I am really pleased with it. Good reception, sound quality and the camera/video quality is very clear. I'm still trying to work out all of the functions, as I am not really a phone freak - never thought I would consider one with a camera, after all a phone is for phone calls, right? If you want to take pictures then get a camera. Well maybe, maybe not.... However I managed to get the basics sorted easily enough, and if I can do that then anyone should be able to (except perhaps my Mom). I even managed to send a picture I had taken to my email address no problem at all! I wish I could programme the phone so that the ...  Read the complete review
