Motorola V220

Now call me shallow, but I like good-looking things. Cars, clothes, jewellery, men. Oh, and mobile phones! And (like the phone whore I am!) looks are exactly what drew me to the Motorola V220. This tidy little flip-phone certainly looks the part. In its closed state, it stands at only just over 3 inches in height, with attractive silver casing, an LCD screen with time display and neatly placed camera lens encircled by a little disc of chrome, making it a very stylish looking little chap indeed! Flip this phone open and there is a compact colour screen, generous sized keypad with illuminated ... more

Ok, this is my first review on a mobile phone and I see so many come through that appear as if the writer simply can't be bothered and expects to get ratings for it. First of all I am starting off with a rant and a small review similar to what people write these days and then move on to a proper review of my phone. Sorry if it's a bit long winded. *** A typical Phone Review *** I was looking for a mobile phone and came across quite a few cheap ones that seemed fairly good until I saw this Motorola V220 for £50. It comes in either silver or pink and may even get freebies with it. The phone is ... more

I got this phone last August free from my telecommunication provider. I think when I got it was fairly new on the market. But as you all know the market moves that fast. So what does the phone give you~ **Looks*** The is a stylish little phone, mostly silver in colour with a dark screen on the front. The ariel is a light grey colour which stands out from the rest of the phone. On the front of the phone you also have the camera lens which is a lovely silver if kept clean, along with the Motorola logo(M). **Design** The design of this phone is relatively good in comparison to many other Moto ... more

I should start by saying that a lot of my opinion is based on a comparison with a newer, similarly basic, Samsung mobile phone that I have recently bought to communicate with my eldest daughter on a different network. My old phone is really still my current one. I bought it in May 2006, and the Orange shop salesman saw us coming - I think it was already old stock even then. However, although he may have been relieved to shift the box out of the store cupboard, I have been very impressed with this simple phone's reliability and performance over the four years that I've had it. First of all ... more

I got this phone in August 2004 as a present at that time it cost £159.99. I believe it was bought from Phones for you. This phone replaced my Nokia 3210 which I had for years. Being only 16 I go through mobiles like nothing on earth, always losing them or dropping them which cause's a lot of damage. The Motorola V220 is the first phone that I have had with a built in camera, It's a stylish phone silver in colour, its very light in weight and is overall a very small phone. Once you open the flip up you are greeted with what looks like a lot of buttons, but to be honest its just your standard ... more
