    Good Points: Camera is excellent quality, battery is fairly good, plenty of features to keep you amused.
    Cool blue strip light when receiving calls and charging.


    Bad Points: You have to pay for all games.
    Bulky compared with the V3


    General comments: Well features, you have the Video TV, Camera, games, video Camera, Bluetooth, Infrared, Voice command, and some others which I probably haven't even noticed yet.

    I've had this phone for two years, and it has been a very good phone. The design wasn't brilliant, I was expecting the slimline V3 just with more features. But its is fairly bulky. A few months ago the phone started to crash, predictive texting was slow and it generally became annoying, but accidentally I fixed it. Basically whilst trying to download my pictures onto the computer I notice an upgrade option (free with Motorola website) I assumed it would be to upgrade the software on the pc, however it upgraded the hardware on my phone, wiping everything off it!

    As fuming as I was at the time, I am thankful I did that now, as the phone is like brand new, the camera quality has improved 100% and I can now take stunning photos using my phone, the speed of texting and saving videos has also improved and overall I am impressed with it again. I would & wouldn't recommend this phone, if its reliability your after then for 2 years going strong I would recommend this phone. If its style your after then this phone is pretty ugly, bar the blue strip light across that bottom if it, that is an excellent feature!!!

    This phone is the best phone I've had... I didn't want to change from the Nokia 7600, because I liked it's quirkiness, but I am so glad i did. It has the best music system on it, with two different programmes that you can use. I also have MSN hotmail set up on mine so that i can talk to friends when I am away from my the internet, it has a good memory even without an extra memory card. I would recommend this phone to anyone, it;s fantastic!!!

    I hate 3 in general because every time I have a problem I have to speak to there customer service team who cant understand me and I cant understand them.
    I have a year left on my contract then I am going back to Pay As You Go.

    The Motorola V3x is such an abysmal example of a mobile phone that it very nearly destroyed my interest in mobile phones. Over the past 10 years I have been through quite a few phones and this is by far the worst. Its sole redeeming feature is its aesthetic appeal which is undeniable. In this Motorola has been true to the whole ethos of the V series and even going back to the StarTac line (another abysmal phone) in that it's a well marketed aesthetic handset that is about as useful as a telecomm ...

    I would not recommend this Motorola V3X phone to anyone!! Its big, bulky and feels horrible. The service I've received from Orange and Motorola has been appalling, they are just not interested!! I would never own a Motorola again.

    I am on my 4th handset and 5th battery. The battery life surely should last more than 36 hours!! Text and MMS msg's don't get sent, it freezes all the time, won't display missed calls or received calls, never has a signal (even though everyone else has)! These are j ...

    This is by far and away the worst phone I have ever had the misfortune to own. I got the Motorola V3X free when I switched to the Three network earlier this summer because they didn't have any Nokia's. As with some of the other reviewers here, the battery life is non-existent. With minimal use, the phone still needs charging every night. Asked Three about this and they gave me a new battery - same problem though.

    The other major gripe I have is that even in an area with full reception, the ph ...

    I was a bit disappointed when I received my Motorola V3X phone. It is bulky and very heavy compared to the V3. However, it came with 3 months free mobile TV, and was only £12.50 for first 3 months. It's quite hardy as I've dropped it a few times, yet it still lives! The outer camera is very good quality and you can switch it to fast moving or close up. Texting is easy and the key pad is big and clear. Battery is about average if you switch Bluetooth off.

    The Motorola V3X is big enough so you can't loose it, screens clear and camera good, but the battery life is nil. We have 5 on business contract and they have all got the same faults, no signal, cannot be heard talking, make funny screeching sounds, do not charge properly, and will not connect manually to bluetooth ie when getting in and out of the car.

    Trying to get these Motorola V3X's changed to something better, ie the v3 or anything else at the moment. Vodafone recons they have no id ...

    This Motorola V3X is a great phone - I got half price line rental with O2 (from carphone warehouse) so it's only £17.50 a month for 12months (12mth contract), 400mins & 100 txts. Great screen, has mp3 music player, big buttons, video calling and a clear menu layout. With o2 it's in a cool dark blue colour, t-mobile is (tacky?) pink and otherwise it's black. Not so great battery but fast charging so just charge it overnight!

    The 1st two phones I was given didn't work! But carphone wareh ...

    I got this Motorola V3X as a free upgrade. I'm just glad I did not pay out money for it. Whenever a new contact is stored from a received call it locks the contacts and the voice dialing, with the only option being to find the offending entry and delete it from your contacts. If this was the only time it locks it would be merely an annoyance, but use the PC software to enter or amend your contacts and you appear to have a 50-50 chance of locking the contacts and all functions dependent upon th ...

    If you want to show off to your mates, then the Motorola V3X is the mobile phone for you. If like me you want it to work well as its primary function of a phone, then get the SLVR instead, as it's lighter and the battery lasts longer.

    In general, the Motorola V3X mobile phone is not what I was expecting. I was looking for an upgrade to my V3, instead I got a power consuming brick.

    Do the people at Motorola actually use mobile phones themselves? They are so out of touch with the every day requirements of a regular phone user. Pat on the back though for producing the Motorola V3X which is a useless gadget which is a novelty that soon wears off, and the reality of having to live with a inefficient work tool haunts you for the life of your contract.
