I bought this phone back in 2004. While I've gone through several other phones (SLVR L7/w810i/Treo650), my trusty v220 has always been there as my backup!

Ever since I bought a $6 Chinese 750mAh battery, I've only had to charge this phone once every week and a half to boot!

This phone's fallen in lakes (two or three times), been dropped out from the second story of a condo (onto pavement), and it's still kicking!

Phone has served me VERY well for 4 years with no maintenance. It has great battery life, good coverage even in weak signal areas, and has clear, easy to read display and large enough keys to be useful. Weakness is that it has always given the wrong time by 1 hour on vmail messages, and all the buttons on the outside of the unit cause problems if I am not careful what I touch when I pick it up to answer. Those buttons are seldom used except to turn off the ringer, but they do other things that must be related to the non-phone functions. Too bad they are not recessed.

Great phone for people who want a phone and not a toy. (For camera I use Canon Digital EOS. For computer I use HP Workstation and Dell laptop.) I use my phone as a phone, and have a hard time finding phones with specs as good as this one.

Note: Phones used as other devices are useless to far-sighted people unless they wear bifocals, since everything on them is way too small be of any value.

Bought this phone over 3yrs ago but have long-since replaced it. Have just given it to my 7yr old son as his 1st phone, as it v.basic & easy to use.

Possibly the CRAPPEST phone I had.
1. The camera was crap
2. The "MP3" was crap
3. You could not download any videos
4. Hardly any features
5. No bluetooth
6. The IM was completely pointless

My LG Chocolate is MUCH better :)

This phone has about the best sound reproduction (bass and depth specifically) that Ive heard in a phone. Great 'mobile'!

In a few weeks, it'll be 3 years with this phone. I've only replaced the battery as I was only getting about 1.5 days of use out of it. Using Mobile Phone Tools with this phone, it was excellent. I used it in a remote eastern Canada Location for Internet access with my Laptop (No problem, albeit expensive!)
It worked perfectly in Dubai UAE, London England, Madrid Spain, the US and Central Mexico. I'm upgrading next month, ONLY because I want blue tooth. This phone has a lot of miles on it!
