Motorola V3 Mobile Phone

Advantages: 2-way Camera option, messaging facility and other appliances.
Disadvantages: Low memory, can be annoying, quite slow.

...Motorola V3. It's slim and compact design makes it easier to carry around and the large screen function makes the phone a little different from others because you can actually read the words on the screen more clearly. The buttons on the phone some may find difficult to use and text messaging can be a bit harder to use on this phone than others. This is because the phone assumes what word your going to write before you actually complete the word. This brings disadvantages to the phone and could put potential buyers off. The phone has a camera with a two-way option of use. You can either use the camera like any other phone can or the opening of the phone (lid) can be closed and a picture can be took using the small outside screen. This will then shown on the inside screen when the lid has been opened again. Other appliances include games...

Motorola RAZR V3 - Phone Of The Centuary

Advantages: So Sleek, Cheap, Great Range Of Features
Disadvantages: Not Very Durable

...There has been a lot of talk and advertising for the Motorola V3 so once it came out it had to live up to some heavy expectations. Luckily for Motorola it did. The V3 is a great phone so and hopefully my review will help you to understand that. Looks: This phone definitely has looks; it is probably the most stylish phone on the market. It is super sleek and not very tall either. The whole thing adds up the little screen on the front and the camera above it, the whole thing is a masterpiece. One of the best things in my eye about the look is that unlike most flip-phones it does not have one of those short stubby aerials sticking out of the top. Feel / Ease of Use: This phone feels great in the hand to. It just about fits into the palm of my hand (the phone is quite wide) and it is not very heavy. It also fits very nicely into my...

Review of Motorola V3

The best iPod / Phone!

Advantages: unbelivably sexy and beautiful, wonderful internet and video / music
Disadvantages: needs a couple of firmware updates to become the perfect phone

...Given the rather briefness of the other iPhone reviews on Ciao, and given I've actually GOT one, I thought I'd do a proper review prior to the iPhone being launched in the UK. Some history: Apple have been making computers since the 1970's and were the first people to launch what we now call a home computer with the Apple II microcomputer in 1977. Since then, they have been at the front of design and innovation, despite having a few failures along the way, such as the Apple Newton in the 1990's. Apple have recently had two turnarounds, the first being the launch of the iMac in 1998 (basically a portable TV size computer with screen, but with funky colours and all in one design) and the other in 2001 when Apple launched the iPod... The rest, as they say, is history! iPhone history: During late 2006, rumours were...

Motorola Toolkit

Advantages: free, easy to use, transfers,
Disadvantages: none really

...~~ INTRODUCTION ~~ Basically the tools come on a cd that you get when you buy a Motorola mobile phone. The cd is full of tools that will allow you to connect your phone to the pc and allows you to transfer files between the two. They are easy to understand and basically self explanatory, the setup of the tools doesn't take long to install and is pretty straight forward. ~~ INSTALLATION ~~ Pop in your cd into the drive of your computer, and follow the on screen instructions. Once the installation as finished installing the tools onto the computer it will ask you if you wish to restart the computer I suggest you do. Once you have the computer back again after the restart, then your on your way to connecting the phone to your computer, again just follow the instructions and away you go. Once you have done that the tools will open...

Review of Motorola Phone Tools 4

Possibly the best Motorola phone on the market

Advantages: Slim, stylish design of the V3 with more features and more reliable software
Disadvantages: Camera quality no match for some of its closest competitors

...The original V3 was a real hit for Motorola. The handsets were flying off the shelves, but unfortunately a lot of them developed software issues (especially the pink and blue versions, which seemed more unstable than the original black and silver). In the V3i, Motorola improved not only the features of the original V3, but the reliability. The design has stayed pretty much the same. The main additions have been a 1.2 megapixel camera with video capture, a vast improvement on the original VGA camera although not as good as the latest Samsungs and Sony Ericssons in a similar price range; space in the back for a transflash memory card (a 64MB card is included in the box); and automatic voice recognition. Including a memory card means that you can put the camera to good use and also put some tunes on your phone. The V3i supports i...

Review of Motorola razr V3i Dolce & Gabbana limited edition mobile phone.

iPhone

Advantages: Great interface. Excellent Music Clarity.
Disadvantages: Limited Official Apps

...iPhone. The greatest device since GSM was first created? Yes and No. I've had the iPhone for just over 4 months and I have mixed feelings over the device. I used ZiPhone to unlock mine from AT&T in the US for use in Ireland. Out of the box the iPhone is intruative (It has to be as a Manual is not included in the box). The box included a small quick start guide, a headset and the various connectors. Set up with iTune is a breeze even for a newbie. The Home Screen on the iPhone differs from most WIndows based Smart devices as a simple press closes the running program down. I own a HTC Touch aswell and found it much easier to upgrade and customise than the iPhone. While the iPhone has a huge and diverse 3rd party App community you may have to wait a long time until an App you need comes about. However, once they are released you can...

Review of Apple iPhone

like taking the home phone out with you .motorola w156 under £10

Advantages: Loud ringtone-clear ear speaker for voice calls Great if on a budget/for emergency
Disadvantages: BASIC will not cut it for people who want all singing and dancing technology.

...,what I might be able to get in a month or two. There were a few that I liked in my usual price range -so I added them to my watch list. AND THEN.... Then I saw a Brand NEW PHONE listed at £9.99-p+p was FREE and also I went on to read that £5 AIR TIME was included!!! OK!! so it wasn't even anything like what I usually get .In fact it made my last phone look like a top of the range next to this thing!! In fact this phone would be almost identical in features to the first phone I ever owned in 1998!!!! apart from it being a lot smaller. (still it did look quite like it) In fact anyone who ever owned an old (new then)motorola in the late 90's...Well.. thats basically what you get with this. This phone is Motorola. This phone could probably be described as retro style now !!! All I needed to know was, Could I send and receive texts...

Review of Motorola W156

I phone negetive features

Advantages: It is very nice and quite cool
Disadvantages: not worth for the money

...It is very nice and quite cool but it has got so many negetive features. In my opinion it is not worth spending so much of money for this product. negetive features like * Very expensive for the current market, if we compare with other phone in market with similar kind of features * we can't forward SMS's *it has got extremely weak speaker, comparatively poor signal clarity * we can't do Bluetooth file transfer *it will not store or open local HTML, XML, or script files. *IPhone lacks voice dialing, so you can't use the phone truly hands-free. I think still many will be there since i'm not having it so don't know all them. But it is very good phone to buy with out any contract, then it is worth other wise I won't spend so much on this phone....

Review of Apple iPhone

Iphone- A phone with great features

Advantages: Touchscreen, Many Features, Excellent sound quality
Disadvantages: Lack of Camera quality, Quite slow web browsing, Dirty fingers on your screen

...The iphone was introduced in December 2004 but only briefly and we were all thinking if apple was really going to make an iphone, 3 years late Iphone is out. The so called "Jesus" phone has the most innotive and sleek design we have seen, its beatifully black carved edges and its sleek menu system but "We can't judge the IPHONE from the outside only". The iPhone's curves and geometry make it incredibly comfortable to hold. It fits well in the hand horizontally and vertically. The iPhone features the most attractive display that a phone "for now" can have. To zoom in on a picture you just need to pinch it or slide your fingers both starting from the middle and each finer sliding to one side (to zoom out) is a very original and fun way of zooming in on pictures or even MAPS. To write messages a "pop-up" keyboard appears letting you...

Review of Apple iPhone

All about the iPhone

Advantages: Applications, touch interface, storage, screen size, camera
Disadvantages: Speaker volume

...Not only is it a phone, but it is an iPod. The iPhone is a revolutionary cell phone that has many amazing features. One of the most well-known features is the touch screen. With a single tap of your finger, you can be reading the newspaper, checking your email, taking a picture and many more! I think the most useful applications are the iPod, the phone, and safari (Apple's internet browser). The iPhone's storage is 8gb. That can hold about 2000 songs! You can also watch videos, listen/watch podcasts, and use the amazing new cover-flow feature, which is used by simply rotating the iPhone! With the iPhone, you have a special feature called "Visual Voicemail". Instead of listening to every voicemail message you have, until you find the one you want, you can just tap it and you are listening to it! With visual voicemail...
