I have had this phone for several months. I like the design, sturdiness and feel of the phone. I have had no problems with the features or functions of the phone. However, the call quality leaves much to be desired. I finally got tired of pressing the phone through my head, winding up my windows in the car, and turning off the radio just to hear the person on the other end! Enough already. I have just upgraded to the new motorola Rapture vu30 and so far the sound is good. Now that I can deal with. I don't know if it is just the phones that I have had or just the phone as a whole, but I switched this phone out 3 times trying to find one with good call quality. So if call quality is as important to you as it is to me, then you may want to entertain the thought of another phone.
Style, sturdiness, feel of the phone. Good features. Good funtionality.Call quality

only had the phone for couple days. worked good for a little bit. I get poor quality of sound wen i'm trying to talk to people. internet was good. texting is not working properly when i am typing words. i'm pushing the buttons but it's not registering as quickly as it should and sometimes i have to go back after waiting 20 seconds for the phone to catch up before i can even try to go back to the error :( but when i go to call someone the #s pushed register quickly-that works fine, jst not wen i'm texting. scrolling down connections list also slows me down. phone will also freeze no matter wht i'm doing. i will end out everything to main screen and it glitches outon me. very disappointed. one more thing about the texting, every once in a while i will get a msg from a contact but its showing tht a difft contact sent me the msg. closing out the txt fixed the glitch. i shouldve jst stayed w/my last cell phone company. camera works fine i like all the extras ex: night time or more white. taht's neat. also downloading from the net worx well for me too. Dont get this phone, i've heard nothing but bad things. do like the look of the buttons.like the texture of the case too.
physical features
web connectivity
downloads
volume control totally sucked (way too loud on lowest setting)
good connection when charging (Port on phone w/more use, may need a repair job)
Poor sound quality in calls (muffled sound)

When I first saw this phone on this site, I thought, what is the W755, another one of "those" cheap camera phones for Verizon? Then I thought, it looks a lot like the V3m RAZR, is it an updated version? It indeed is. I got this phone, and it is basically a RAZR3, but Verizson doesn't call it that since the RAZR2 V9m just came out for Verizon. It is really cool! I have the black slate W755. It is nice! I have to admit, I love it!
Good battery life, slim, sleek, buttons well-spaced out, easy-to-press buttons, ease of use, it's on Verizon, music player, screen sizes, color, metallic-y surface, 1.3 MP camera, 30-second video recorder, touch music controls, easy on/off Bluetooth, flips up easy, gliding design, chromeNone

at first when i had it i was like what the heck is that!? cuz it loked really ugly to me! but as i started getting new things on it, it got better. the music quality was great but the head phone model wasnt.. you have to buy your own head phone thats exrrememly small and most other headphones are too big for it. one other bad thing was the hearing on the phone.. even when you call someone in the same school during lunch to find then or what not.. it still sounds bad, even if they are in a quiet place. other than that i started to like the design and its smooth texture and also liked the touch sensitive feature. the txting is easier than alot of triple letter phones and an good camera and camcorder. i really like the vapor menu design too x3 and yeah.. im an early teen so this is great for one.
alot..the sound!

15. Back to the drawing board!

I should've listened to the bad reviews on this phone before getting this piece of junk! Let me just say that this is my 3rd phone on my upgrade for my New in Every 2 so I am not just being petty or picking on this phone! I started with the Venus, after 4 days when my phone would ring, I couldn't hear nothing and the Speakerphone button on the touchscreen mysteriously disappeared! Sent that back and got the Chocolate 3, had it on for a day and everyone sounded like robots. Sent that back and got this junk, Moto W755 in purple! I am not sure what is going on with the phones now but it seems none are good anymore. I am coming from an LG VX8300 which I call the Superman of phones, this phone sounded great and had been through the war zone, being dropped and even thrown, the whole phone came apart and I popped it back together and it still works! My only issue is that the pins are breaking where you charge it and it is becoming harder to charge or believe me I'd keep this phone!
Back to this junk, I literally had this phone activated for less then a half hour! I made one call and they said I sounded like I was in Alaska, that was with my plug in headset, however, they sounded clear to me. I took off the headset and they said it was better but now I couldn't hear them. The sound was set to the highest setting. I immediately called Verizon and the rep was able to experience this problematic phone first hand when it cut out twice while we were talking, she could hear me but I couldn't hear her until suddenly her voice came back after about a minute of saying Hello, Hello, Hello. She immediately told me that she wanted to activate my old phone. How is it possible to get 3 bad phones all different types from Verizon, are they bad or is it just my luck. Is it that a small amount are actually good and the good majority suck??!!
I am frustrated beyond belief and have no idea what phone to get now! I have to now wait again and hope they reset my online account so I can get this online with the instant rebates, though Verizon says it won't reset, they said it wouldn't before and it did. I know even though they say the store will honor the online price and instant rebates that they will give me a problem. Here is a bit of advice to anyone looking for a phone, read the user reviews and if you read anything bad that has to do with call quality, battery, or signal, run away and find a review that is positive or has a stupid bad review like the web is slow or something that is bearable! I paid for not listening to the reviews here!
Nice designEverything - cant hear callers and the sound cuts in and out!

What can I say about this phone?????? Great phone, and that's pretty much it! I would recommend it to anybody who has a RAZR or KRZR and looking to upgrade. It's only $19.99 (subject to change) and that is an EXTREMELY good price!!!!!!
Batter battery life than RAZR, Better ringtones than RAZR, better speaker and speaker phone than RAZR, Better colors than RAZR, more scratch-resistant than RAZR, better keypad than RAZR, easier to TXT on than RAZR, Metallic-y finish, Chrome, No aerial antenna anymore, Easier glide-open flip design than RAZR, Nicer than RAZR, Much, much better than RAZR!Smaller screen than RAZR, Wiggles from side to side after you drop it once!

I have improved reception over my previous LG phone.
My only gripe are the controls on the side. the vibrate response & speaker phone turns on from "in the pocket" contact. I've missed calls due to this. the vibration is very weak.
The original battery lasted less than 30 days.
My next phone will be a Nokia!

18. Good phone but i have some personal issues

Pros: The phone is a good phone, its fairly new to the market and it hasn't glitched on me once, which is a first. Seems durable and can do lots of stuff.
Cons: Really its the small stuff that is important to me and that is where the cons lay: In order to put music on your phone you have to use Rhapsody Vcast software which does not work on MACS. I was not aware of this and have yet to be able to use this feature which is frustrating.
I use my phone as a watch, so its aggravating that the front screen on the phone goes black only after a few seconds instead of dimming (so you can still read the clock) like my old phone.
I read a review saying that it had a mean vibration setting, this is not true. Unless it is right next to me on hard wood I do not notice it vibrating at all. There has been a few times when it was laying it on my stomach and I thought it was indigestion before I realized my phone was ringing lol!
A huge annoyance with this phone is you can't set predictive text as default for text messaging!!! So anytime I write a message I have to manually set it as predictive text. It also doesn't have much memory to memorize new words. I feel like I have to type in names and slang and such waayyy too many times after it has already remembered it in the past.
One more quick gripe is that there is no way to turn off 'voice commands' setting, and too be honest Im not positive how it gets turned on sometimes, but it has turned on in my purse and im afraid it will call someone and it has already deleted something (but I don't know what it deleted).
Other than all those things its a decent phone! lol

19. We have two W755s - and love them!

The W755 has been a great phone for us! We got them about 2 months ago - black for my husband and purple for me - so we only had to "learn" one new phone setup, but we can tell them apart easily. The reception in our area, which seems to "change with the wind", is much better with this Motorola than my last one - and we haven't lost a call yet. Some users commented about the poor sound from the handset, but I found this was easily fixed by adjusting the volume DURING A CALL (the switch on the left side adjusts ring volume when you are not on a call, but during a call the same switch adjusts your earpiece volume). I love how easy it is to change the ringtone to vibrate, and back again. Another user comment said the battery life was poor -- I really think they had a "lemon", because the battery life has been great on my phone. Overall, I am really happy with it!

This is my 1st cell phone, and after trying every option and customizing where appropriate, I'm super pleased. I'll never use all of the 2 gig micro SD card (famous last words), but it's handy to have it available - in my case for less than $18.
