1. Stop Complaining

4 Oct 2008 by Geoff in TO

80%8out of 10

I hate people that give phones a bad review just because they don't have features they want, listen buy a phone with those features then review it, this phone is simply made to function as a phone, nothing more nothing less, i have a camera and an mp3 player i don't need a phone for that which is why i bought this simple nice looking phone. So far so good. If I have one complaint its the texting is a little slow, but not enought to make me hate the phone. So buy this one if you want a phone, if you want more than that look elsewhere

2. Can't See

16 Jul 2008 by Chip Porter

84%8.4out of 10

There was a lot to like about this phone. Sound quality was great, signal quality was good, texting was easy...the problem is reading the screens. The screen on the cover is worthless. The size of text it uses is infintesimal. I thought that would be ok, as I would set the phone to only answer after I hit a key. That way, I could open up the clamshell and read the larger screen to see who the caller was before I answered. NO GOOD. The text on the big screen is just as small as the text on the small screen. Someone really screwed up programming this feature.

One other feature that I didn't like, was the vibe then ring feature. Why can't they just make it to vibe and ring like every other manufacturer?

My mom has this phone, and it is perfect for her. All she needs it for is to make calls to and from home to tell us shes on her way and to check in, and this is the phone for anyone looking for a basic, nice looking phone.

4. BASIC-VANILLA ICE CREAM PHONE

22 Apr 2008 by GEO

28%2.8out of 10

If you are searching for a basic phone, it could be a fine choice. Certainly you will go unnoticed because it is an unflavored ligth vanilla ice cream cell phone.

PROS: INEXPENSIVE-DO NOT PAY - IT IS FREE WITH PLAN - CERTAINLY NOT ATTRACTIVE FOR THIEVES...
CONS: LITTLE HARD TO READ FRONT DISPLAY-I WONDER WHY MOTOROLA DESIGNERS CREATED SUCH TINY DISPLAY. CAMERA RESOLUTION IS BAD-BAD

5. Totally agree! Great phone.

I've only had my phone for a couple of days but am extremely happy with it's quality and features. However, I have the same question as Jeff. How do you get the external view to appear sideways, left or right, and not the time stacked vertically in large numbers with signal and battery strenth below?

7. Huh... How 'Bout That

14 Mar 2008 by Elvis

I'm in indoor construction and ruined my new LG Shine flip in 2 weeks - it dented like mad - and cried out for my Moto V710 again. Then when I went in for a new phone I was recommended the W385 because it could take a little abuse and has a membrane keypad to keep out dust etc. and I didn't need to have an MP3 or high quality camera because I already have a good MP3 player and a digital camera so here it was... the W385.

Pros for me; flip for screen protection, easy to use, fairly simple set-up, cheap price, rubberized finish, camera, SPEAKERPHONE!!!!!

Cons for me; rings not quite loud enough.

8. The Pro says: Yes to the w385

For the price, this phone delivers more than the competitors. Great RF rating (good reception), good battery life, coated finish and strudy. You would be hard pressed to find a camera and Bluetooth phone for the low price.

10. awesome!

for the price of $119, this phone has A LOT in store. I had one, and it lasted me 4 years. When it came to get a new one, I got this one again, except the blackened VJ version which shipped overseas from japan to NY to me. i love it. it has a 2.7 mp, a blackened out 1.4" display, and a mere glass finish that shines. problem is, it's $1575

This phone is similar, doesnt have the features as mine but its a good one
