Motorola Motofone F3

...average mobile users. Motorola had a great idea. A mobile phone with the most basic functions you can get and for the cheapest price ever seen! The Motorola F3 (o Motofone) is the answer to the increasingly estranging mobile phone technology. Simple, slim, light, smart-looking, easy-to-use, cheap and durable! -----------> After all this praise let's see what so good about it (and what's bad): First of all the price! I paid it around £7 at pound-stretcher ...
...not fully customisable The Motorola Motofone band is 900/1800 MHz GSM for Europe. I read that it also comes in different colours (black, blue, red and a silverish grey) but I only found the black one which is very nice. -----------> Now the bad The real bad thing of this phone is the weird display of SMS. The text display contains only two lines of six characters each that makes reading and writing SMS less practical than on standard LCD displays, ...

Review of Motorola Motofone F3

The Motorola Motofone F3 is a very basic mobile, allowing only calls and SMS texts only, so ideal for anyone who needs a simple phone, or giving your child their first phone. The phone is very compact, measuring only 114mm x 47mm x 9mm with a good layout of keys. The phone has been designed to be as simple as possible, to the extent that you get voice prompts to help you navigate through the menu. (This voice prompt can be turned off) The menu ...
...ringing tone, set alarms and the date/time. There is also a phone book to allow you to store numbers. The phone uses "electronic paper" instead of the usual LCD screen, so eveything is black and white. The screen is only shows 2 lines (not including the menu icons) and the text is 6 characters across. This means that it is very easy to read the screen in bright sun, but it does mean that if you receive a long text message, a lot of scrolling through ...

Review of Motorola Motofone F3

I purchased this phone back in October 2007. I personally think this phone is fantastic, It was only meant to be a temporary phone, but it soon became a phone that I use for work, its battery time its fantastic, I've spent hours talking on the phone, and only need to recharge it every 7 days. The features on the phone are very limited however, it is good as it has large print texting and voice assist, which basically is a man, saying each menu out loud (although you can disable this). I've given it 5/5, it gets the job done, and with good battery time!. ...

Review of Motorola Motofone F3

Bought as a temporary phone i found it extremely difficult to use and embarrassing in public as it shouts out the menu items as you scroll through them (all 5 of them!). The huge print and poor screen quality make it impossible to read texts and the lack of a predictive/ dictionary setting make the whole buisness of texting impracticable. Poor reception and lack of almost everything you would expect in a phone these days add to the problems. However, ...

...design and has variation of languages. ussually all phones has only 2-3 languages to choose, but this is different. The MOTOFONE F3 handset redefines wireless communication with high design, smart features and easy functionality at a low price. i think its really cheep for this phone. To help bridge literacy gaps, the MOTOFONE offers a redesigned user interface with innovative voice prompts in local languages* to guide the user quickly and easily ...
