MotorolaW375 ************ After getting good response from its previous beget Moto W375, now Motorola has a good lower level beget phone again to delight its customers with beautifully designed phone. This phone is just improved model with W375 and some extra features had been added to give maximum advantages and facility to its budget user and this phone is completely satisfy that requirements. I will discuss about its features and also that what has been added over previous W375. **** Design and look Phone has similar folding design body, measured as 99 x 45 x 18.6 mm, 73 and weight is slightly more than its previous model, and it is about 95gm. The W375 model has only 88 g of total weight but the size and dimension of both phones are completely same. Both phones have same folding body and look. Screen size is also completely same with 128 x 160 pixels, 1.8 inches, 28 x 35 mm screen size and resolution also remains similar with TFT color screen and 65K of total colors. **** Memory Phone has been improved in terms of memory and it has a total 10MB of shared internal memory with compare to 1.8 MB in W375. But the same problem here is that this model also doesn't have memory card slot. 10 MB memory is not a good but considering the price and level of this phone it is good enough. Phone also has a VGA camera and I think this memory is enough for that. **** Connectivity The good point here is that phone has been added with Bluetooth connectivity with GPRS and USB. The previous model doesn't have Bluetooth so it is good feature for connectivity in such kind of budget phone. There is no mean of other connectivity solutions like 3G and WLAN in this category of phone. **** Camera and music Phone has VGA camera and this is worst camera ever in all phones that have this, besides that all manufactures are providing this camera in their budget phone to add one extra feature in specification but there is no mean of keeping it. Instead of this they can provide good memory capacity of music player. Phone also has another good feature with FM player and its previous model W375 also contain this but doesn't support stereo sound. Obviously the stereo sound is not possible in such a cheap phone but it is good feature even with mono sound. **** Power back-up Battery back-up is also good with about 5 hours of total talktime and playback time. It is a very good back-up this phone has, many other phones have very poor and disappointing back-up but they have good features, but there is no meaning of good features without good battery back-up. **** Over all conclusion Good budget phone ever with adequate features and battery back-up. Nicely improved over W375. Recommended for budget users.
Summary: Fit on budget catagory with some good features.

The alarm goes off for about 3min then snoozes and continues to go off at intervals for 90 minutes; if another alarm is set (so that it goes off before the 90 minutes are up) it supercedes the original alarm; if you cancel the second alarm, the original alarm will continue to play continuously until its original time is complete . . . I have alarms set at 1/2 hour intervals (with alternating pieces of music) and when the fourth one had played, I cancel and then listen to an hour of my favourite music continuously; just before it finishes, cancelling again gives me the other piece; and if I just want the same piece again I cancel and listen for a final hour . . .

I got the pink version of this at the beginning of December as I needed a phone that would answer easily for phone calls . . . I am disappointed with the FM Radio, as it doesn't work for me even with a new set of headphones; however, I really do like the alarm setup for the phone . . . ♥ jes ♥
Advantages: Clear calls; choice of vibrate or ringtones; easy to use keys; T9/iTap; Bluetooth; alarm Disadvantages: Need to use headphones as aerial for FM Radio; no expansion slot for memory
