Ya know, I've read a lot of comments about this phone, here's my opinion. I puchased this phone to be just that, a mobile phone that's realiable and basic. When I talk on the phone, I can't see the screen, so who cares? I can see what I have to to program it and see who's calling. And as long as it makes noise to let me know someone's calling, who cares what noise it makes? As far as games, I have gameboys; for music, I have stereos and an iPod, for video, I have computers, vhs and dvd players, cameras digital, film and vhs and yes....television!THIS IS A GREAT, LOW COST UNIT and it does WHAT A PHONE IS SUPPOSED TO DO and it DOES IT WELL. As far as Net10 goes, hey spend yourself silly and get all the bangs and whistles, it's a free country. Net10 does exactly for me what I need it to do.

This is the worst phone. Since I bought it everything imaginable has gone wrong with it. I regret wasting my money on buying it and getting it unlocked from Telstra..DONT BUY THIS PHONE!!!

This phone is amazing! I have had and tested many phones but this phones battery keeps going mine lasts for a week. The rigntones are clear and the wap works well. The design is classic and complements any outsfit you wear.

I like this fone. It is stylish, practical and value for money. I can't understand why no one can download tones. The first thing I did was down load one for the ringtone and one for the messages, as I didn't like the built in ones. They were ninety cents each.

Motorola V171 is capable of downloading the ringtones, the only thing your need to have is GPRS activated on your # from the service provider, then you can easily download the ringtones, i have quite a big database of ringtone for V171, in case any of you need ringtones, just mail me, i will get it for you, make sure you get GPRS activated on your #..... i m not gonna charge a single penny for any of the ringtones..... ;)
