I have loved my V188 it uses the same OS as the Razr so there are many hacks for it. I personally removed all of the t-mobile badges and put my own ring tones on for free.
It has been a really durable phone I don't know how many times I have dropped it but it still works flawlessly.

this phone has been a big hassle. mostly because it will not hold charge. i had a different charger tested on it, i had the battery replaced through motorola and finally i just received a replacement phone form tmobile. and ta-da. same problems. i feel so ripped off, all i wanted was a phone that would be reliable, didnt need all the fanciness, and i have been terribly let down.

I've used the v188 for over a year now and it's been a good phone. It lacks the highend gadgets and features of most phones, but the sound quality is better than the Nokia I was using. Now I use the v330 as the main phone, but still keep the v188 as a backup.

It takes about 3 days to charge.

It doesn't work sometimes for no reason.

I can't make calls right now b/c my phone just doesn't feel like working. Maybe later if I am lucky it will work again. It usually does. You just have to wait until its ready.

Some of my friends can't hear me talk on this phone. That is awesome!

This phone is so great if you like carrying dead weight around. Mostly my big beef is that it doesn't work. Other than that this phone rules.

I more word...

Nokia.

I would never recommend this phone. It a huge problem. If it isn't the battery not charging easily, it's the fact that the up button randomly stopped working. or that I can't see how many times someone called. All i wanted was an ordinary phone, no cameras, no bells, no whistles. Thought I found a good deal. I GOT EXACTLY WHAT I PAID FOR. everyone I meet who has this phone hates it. I can't wait for July when my contract is up.
