Motorola va76r

24 Oct 2008 rugged_phone

6.7 out of 10

This is my 3rd phone in 10 months. Previously I had a Moto Z3 RIZR, and a BB Pearl 8120, all were factory unlocked.


I decided to upgrade to the va76r on a 2 year contract with Rogers. I received it yesterday. The first thing you notice is the ruggedness of the phone and the size. If your used to smaller and fancier phone this will be like a slap in the face. But if you have big hands, you'll will love this phone. I have small hands myself, and holding the va76r feels just like talking on a normal land line phone. The interior screen is nice and clear. the camera work fine. Rubber buttons is also nice. I do think it a bit thick. Indoor signal and reception is excellent. The OS is different I think it's linux based. Speaker phone is the clearest I've heard so fare.


After playing with it for a few hours I called motorola support and then called Rogers wireless suppor.


I found 3 issues:


1. The A-GPS doesn't have a app. so you can see it in action.. (it's locked or blocked by Rogers)


2. The 2 softkeys on your home screen, you can't change them (they're locked or blocked by Rogers)


3. You can insert a memory card to listen to your music/mp3's, but if you want to convert one to a ringtune you can't (Rogers has locked or blocked this options as well). Rogers wants you to download rintunes and pay.


Motorola did tell me it was probably blocked by me wireless provider.. Rogers did confirm that.


I will probably find somebody who can unbrand and unlocked  this phone.


I wish they have more features in the phone like a nice little GPS application.. and it would be nice if Rogers would actually offer/support pushto talk.


But the phone feels like a hummer.





It's rugged.
Fits real nice in your hand.
Rubber covered buttons around the phone.
Some features are blocked or locked by Rogers.
The unit is a bit thick to put in a back pocket. it could be a bit thinner.
Should have less games and more applications for the real world.
