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...

Review of Motorola V3

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

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.

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...

Review of Apple iPhone

iPhone I like

Advantages: Modern technology, amount of software and number of devices.
Disadvantages: No protective case.

...iPhone finally arrived on the UK market on the 9th November although not with the same amount of media attention it received in the U.S. it was still popularly accepted by the UK market. I bought mine on the 19th November for £269. This seems expensive but you get a digital camera, ipod and phone all rolled in to one with iphone + internet browsing and e-mail capability, also included are elements of a personal organiser (diary and notepad). The main feature of the phone is the touch screen technology which operates everything. Without boring you with technical detail I will tell you what I got from iphone. There are 17 screens (buttons you can push on the face of the camera.) The 4 on the bottom horizontal strip are the phone, e-mail, internet browsing and i-pod. There 13 buttons on top from left to right in 3 rows of 4 +1 are...

Review of Apple iPhone

Motorola make a geniunely cool phone.

Advantages: Small, excellent reception, very stylish and mp3 ringtones ;-)
Disadvantages: Menus, menus, menus.

...3 (excellent) and polyphonic ringtones and the flip cover has customisable bits so Motorola claim! The reception of the phone is very impressive and matches my 6310i. The voices are clear and you can easily hear the person you are speaking to but I can't seem to find a volume control to adjust the volume during a call can't imagine its not there but I can't find it. All the expected messaging functionality is there long messages, mms etc iTap is very good and I prefer it to T9 already but Nokia have me conditioned to use 0 as the space key where * is the key on the V500. I'll get used to it. Talk time seems good and battery life/standby time doesn't give me any reason to doubt significantly Motorola?s claims. The V500 as a lifestyle statement rocks, the MP3 ringtones alone make it a laugh ! The clam design with that cool Blue...

Review of Motorola V500

iPhone; Modern day Beauty and the Beast

Advantages: Touch screen, games, web browser, utilites, music, pictures
Disadvantages: Price, can not copy and paste, battery life, camera

...In a nutshell: IT?S A TOUCH SCREEN. No other phone have I ever come across since I laid my hands on has so much capabilities as this beautiful beast. It?s a phone, it?s a music player, it?s a camera, it?s a web browser, it?s everything all mashed together into one beautiful device. However its not cheap and it has many limitations so unfortunately its like my last girlfriend; a imperfect beauty. When it comes to the iPhone, I never can make the decision over whether I hate it or love it. It?s a beautiful little device with operates on Apple?s OS X operating system. Its all touchscreen so instead of using buttons the phone has icons that appear on the very touch-sensitive screen, and this screen is big, actually its bigger than big its HUGE. Apple claimed that the iPhone was five years ahead of the competition and when you have a play...

Apple iPhone

Advantages: read review
Disadvantages: read review

...As everyone know, iPhone became really famous after this product got in the store. In a sense, It's a copy of iPod touch, at least, because of the outlook and of course, because of music player. Here is my review about iPhone. Why iPhone is good? Of course iPhone is very famous, because of It's outlook. Of course outlook is great, there is a one big touch sensitive screen and one button, what has only one function - bring you back to "home". You don't need some stick to move menus, It's really easy to surf in menu with your finger. All things functions so coherently, and It's really unfamiliar, example, to use WiFi, you don't have to change any options or retool profiles and you don't have to worry. All things what you haven't done, and you want do continue it later, it always opens from same place and everything is auto...

Review of Apple iPhone

The iPhone Masterpiece

Advantages: Visual beauty, ipod perfection, photo demon, movies screen, internet anywhere! PERFECT!
Disadvantages: cost and network locking (easily overcome) and ringtones (overcome aswell)

...This is the pinacle of phone, music player, video player technology. I can not believe how much stuff is wrapped into this beautiful device. okay first, there is the look. Now i doubt you will be able to find anyone who doesnt think this phone is gorgeous. It has an overall of 4 buttons and a switch. 1 for the home screen, 2 for sound, 1 for on and off and the switch to mute sound. The rest is controlled by your fingers on the 3.5" touch screen. It is beautiful peice of engineering technology. The touch screen is "clever" it know when you touch once, it knows when you pulling across the screen, it knows when your pinching. This is due to a sensitive electrical sheet underneath the glass, yes glass, that is connected to the apple mac os x system. It is stunning. The visual detail is nothing you would ever expect from a3.5" screen. You...
