This phone is pretty good, much better than my previous experiences. I've had a SLVR before, it broke and before it broke the sound quality was inconsistent. The W490 is loud and clear every time i talk on the phone. I have two complaints and they are about the texting, specifically the delete button. One is its placement close to the send button (this is when texting,I don't mean the green send button). I have accidentally pushed send before I was ready to send the text a number of times in my time with the phone. Maybe a menu to switch the placement of the send button? Switch it to the left instead of right? My Last of two complaints, is that the delete button is a little slow in response. Don't know what's that about. Other than that, this is a quality Motorola, not as durable as Nokia, of course but still a neat toy to have.

A Good Phone

I've had this phone for just 1 week now and have put it through all of its paces. It works great. Used the Bluetooth to link with my computer and it is wonderful. I like the sleek and solid design. Bought it through T-Mobile my carrier. Have taken pictures, played MP3 files, downloaded my own ringtones and even the voice dial feature is good. All with no problems. The only thing I find lacking that my V195 was able to do - was to change the background color scheme. But I can live with that. Have yet to load my 2GB Micro SD card. Moto says to use Sandisk brand. Which I have ordered. This is a solid phone which good features. I do not use my phone for web browsing. Also, when I contacted Moto about an headset adapter for my 3.5mm head phones - they graciously sent me one at no cost.

I hate it too
