Motorola MOTO W755 Reviews

31. Great Personality And Cheap Price

Ever since I got rid of my annoying Moto Razr, I wanted a newer, more elegant phone. The Razr froze every time I overloaded it. It was hard to download even 1 song onto that phone. I went to the Verizon Store last week, and came across this eye-catcher. Right when you look at it, you feel a rush of goodness. Then when you flip it open, it gets better! Instead of the Razr's ugly square design, the inside is roundish and stylish. I can go on V-Cast, Mobile Web, AIM, and more! This is just great. I bought it for $99.99, and I heard on the website you can get it for cheaper. But that's ok. I had a budget of $250.00, so this was a great solution. And don't get me wrong, all those high-end Blackberrys and Treos are all bulky and heavy. This is lightweight, and fits in my pocket very well. If you want to get more for your dollar, think about getting this as your next cell phone.

32. Better off with 2 cans and a string

I don't think I have ever hated a phone more. The design is fine, easy to use, and stylish. That's where it all ends. Sound quality is terrible. I have heard crackling, and 3rd party feedback. And the battery life? I had to remove the case to make sure there was a battery. I have to charge it every night, if I want to use it for a full day the next day. By the way, it is 9 days old for me. I've made 12 calls, 7 of them dropped. Do not get this phone.

I've been waiting and waitng for a new, reliable motorola phone. So when this was released I took the plunge and traded in my v710. So far its been ok, but I keep getting lots of dropped calls.

34. I wanted to love it...

However, two things led me to actually hate this phone that went back to Verizon.

1. Call Quality - Horrendous. I was constantly saying "what?". If you turn the volume all the way up to compensate, the ear piece crackles like tinfoil. So I was forced to leave it at medium and cram the phone into my ear. I thought for sure I had a defective phone but the Verizon rep swapped it out and agreed that it's just a "crappy-sounding" phone.

2. Battery Life - Barely acceptable. Standby of 3 days, 4 if lucky. Nowhere near 15 days.

It's a shame that Motorola skimped on what I consider to be the 2 most important features in a phone. Hello Chocolate 3.

35. Great phone, but terrible battery life!

I got this phone two days ago, and I really love it. However, the battery life is poor. I initially thought there was something wrong with my phone until I started researching online and found that other people are having the same issue.
I've seen some complaints about this phone's lack of bells and whistles, but I like a simple phone that is user friendly. For calling and texting, it's great. I love the look, too...I just wish it had a little (well, a LOT) more battery life. I am considering buying a second battery to have as a backup.

As an "average Joe" user, I'm pretty pleased with this phone. It looks nice, and has all the features I need. Of all the low to mid-range phones I looked at, this one was by far the most stylish. It's not perfect, but of my options, I'm glad I got this phone.

My complaints:

1) Volume on calls is too low, even at the highest level. On my old Motorola, call volume was great, but I often have to strain to hear voices during calls. Ring volume could be higher too.

2) I don't care for the keypad....I prefer the former Motorola style where all the buttons were separated and easier to push....on the W755, the keys look/feel cheaper.

3) Battery life isn't great---again, worse than my former Motorola.

39. Amazing features, poor call quality

11 Jun 2008 by JB

We got two of these phones recently and while it's an ok phone there are a few problems that are making me consider changing for another model.

First, the sound quality is a bit poor compared to all other phones I've ever owned. We both find the volume is too low, even when maxed out. The call quality also leaves me frequently straining to understand what the caller is saying.

My other complaint is the battery. If we use the phones for very long, calls or internet, the battery charge drops dramatically. I would suggest if you are going to get this phone to have a car charger in the least, a second battery would be even better. The battery also becomes quite hot when using the phone. The longer the phone is in use the hotter it gets. You can actually feel the heat through the keypad while you are talking. It becomes uncomfortable to actually use the phone if you are on it for very long.

The phone itself is quite sturdy and well made. It doesn't feel like it would break easily. It is a bit heavy for my liking but for $19.99 it's expected.

If you aren't very concerned with call quality or volume then this may be a good phone for you. If you are looking for an actual phone then I would suggest moving on to other models.

40. Mostly good

Overall I think this is a very solid phone. My only complaints:
1. The phone looks kind of cheap relative to other Moto flip phones - especially the interior (when flipped open)
2. I find it difficult to open with one hand
3. There's a degree of lag when using the operating system
Besides these issues, the phone works very well - good sound quality, reception, and features. I'll probably keep it.
