Good Points

Erm.... Erm.... Sleekish Design, OK Pink Colour


Bad Points

Where do I start?
Hardly any memory, went slow with only a few messages, switched itself off, needed charging for around 10 hours and then said low battery, Some buttons stopped working for a period of time, Rang numbers I hadn't written in...


General Comments

When I first got the phone I thought "Alright Its nice its cool... my mates will be jealous as it was the newest fashion type phone and had a really pretty sleek pink design."
It wasn't until about 6 months after I had the Motorola V3 that it went wrong. It started by switching off after someone picked up when I rang them and when sending messages. Then I noticed that the number 9 didn't work and neither did the directional buttons. Then the off button stopped working... and the button to start a call.
After a night out and my phone switching itself off when I had to desperately ring my mum in an emergency we thought we would send it off to be repaired.
After a week we got it back and thought OK as it did switch itself on and worked for the first couple of hours. Then it switched itself off every time I pressed a button and none of the buttons would work. Then it said low battery so we charged it. After about 8 hours on charge I took it off to go out. I was 5 minutes out the door when it switched itself off... again!
Soon enough every button stopped working and even when the phone had turned itself off the buttons were flashing and so the only way to not wear out the battery was to take it out. Then when putting the battery back in it started flashing again. We sent it back to be repaired around 3 times during the 18 months I had the phone and each time the same happened. It worked for around 5 minutes then switched itself off.
The camera [When the phone was working] was pretty rubbish and you couldn't really tell what you had taken a picture of. No memory meant no music and hardly any photos. If you had more then 15 messages then the whole phone would go slow and I ended up having to delete a lot of important messages.
If you are thinking of getting this phone then please read this review and take note: this isn't a phone... it's a handy paperweight.
