I've had this phone for almost a year now.Generally i haven't been dissatisfied with it but i don't really like it because of:
-poor quality camera
-it's rather heavy
-has no message delivery report option(at least i haven't found it)
-i've had problems charging it
-sometimes it just turns itself off and on for no reason
On the other hand,it fell about a million times and it is still alive and that's a really good quality

I've had this phone for over a year now, and I have to say, I love it. I have only had a problem with it freezing and having to shut down once or twice, but other then that it's been great. I have saves tons of pictures and music on it, and still have plenty of memory to go. I've had my toddler spill water on it, I've dropped it numerous time, and the thing still have great sound quality for ringtones, and phone calls. I'm sticking with Motorola when I finally decide to upgrade.

I was patient enuough to hang onto this phone for 1 1/2 years. Ultimatly, it was a decent phone for the duration of 4 months. Problems started to occur. The classic problems i read about based on other peoples reviews are a reality with this phone. The most frustrating problems i had with this phone are the following: "People couldn't hear me, but i could hear them" issues during phone calls. I had to jam the speaker into my ear drum to hear calls. Charging it is a pain.
The pros:
If you treat this phone like it's made of glass, it can be a decent phone. The camera is perfect, (no flash, but i'm not picky) Nice display, and brilliant colours. Works in almost every country.
The cons weigh out the pros however. This phone got so frustrating to work with i ended up running it over 3 times with my car, and laughing in an insane deranged laughter. (true story)
For free it's worth it, not worth the price tag. (i'd pay maybe $50.00 usd, which is what i paid through t-mobile, after a mail in rebate that took 9 months to come in via mail.)
If your carrier offers it, go with a nokia. This is the last time i go with motorola.

I bought this piece of dung for $300.00. I've had nothing but trouble with it ever since. It's almost impossible to charge, I have to connect the charger over and over again before it will actually start charging if ever. After a year and a few days it became impossible to hear the caller. I know 3 other people that had the same phone and had the same problem. (And after reading these reviews I now know many, many more!) I called Motorola and fought with them for three days before they agreed to fix it. They ended up replacing the top portion (with the ear speaker in it). It took me two weeks to get it back. They then tried to bill me for a replacement phone through my carrier; T-Mobile and I had to fight for three days to get that charge reversed. After a few months I had the same problem not being able to hear. When I called they informed me that it was out of warranty and I would be charged to repair it. Charge for what? To have it break in another 3 months again? I have had cell phones for many years and have always taken whatever free Nokia that was being offered at the time and never had a problem with them. They still work fine to this date years later! For once I thought I would treat myself and BUY a "cutting edge" phone and got suckered out of $300.00 for a Motorola piece of garbage and it has been problems from day one. Motorola makes garbage, charges top dollar for it, and won't stand behind it when you have a problem with it. Their customer service sucks; all they know how to say is "there will be a charge for repair". If you can understand them when they say it. NEVER!!!! NEVER MOTOROLA AGAIN!!!

V300 is a great cel phone.
The pictures are great, but anyway I recomend only high resolution ones.
Have you figured out the screen size? Excelent...
Letīs say the battery life isnīt as good as we like...but u can buy a long battery supply for v300 out there...
You can costumize your phone from outside and inside... letīs say Java games? app?
I give it a 8/10, if u want a very nice cam phone not expensive one...this is the one u need... ^_^

i have the V330.. but i don't see it on here.. this phone is the closest to it. Its the model after this one I think. And its the most horrible phone I have ever owned. Not only does it shot off for itself and drop calls, but the reception is horrible. Poeple with other phones get perfect reception and with me... i have NO bars. Not only that.. but i try to talk to T-mobile about it..and they tried to stiff me into extending my plan with them and paying $70 for another model with less features. How fair is that?? I don't recomment T-mobile service to anyone... pay the extra few bucks and get Verison or Sprint. Because with T-mobile you really get what you pay for ...shitty service both from ur phone and them.

I brought this phone for my daughter for Christmas, and we ordered a cell phone cover for it, and took it to a T-Mobile store (we have T-Mobile coverage) and they could not change the cover because they said the 2 bottom screws were stripped. We have not messed with anything, so they were already stripped when we bought it. Help!

I've had this cell phone for 2 years now. Although i've experienced some trouble with it. Like turnig off randomly and not being able to be recognised by computer.I still think it's one of the best cell phones in the world.

I've had this phone for two years i do like it but as time goes on i'm experiencing more and more problems. Originally the phone would frequntly and would require the battery taking out to get it to work again which can become very tedious also the charger only charges in a certain position. It frequntly turns itself off or has no service. I also experience problem with phone calls. My wap or gprs has never worked nor has my mms messaging and recently it has started reseting the date and time which can be frustrating as it is my alarm and rely on my alarm greatly. Has plus's but many negatives

THe V300 Sucks. If you have one you should throw it out the window. I have held onto to mine although it hasn't worked in a year because it has a good camera and alarm. I stopped using it because I could hear the other person but they couldn't hear me. The charger also works only when it wants to. If you touch it too hard, it turns off. HORRIBLE

This phone is bad! a lot of people I know have all had it and did not like it! It shuts off automatically, doesn't charge, brakes fast. Don't buy it, it
s not worth the money. The connection for bars is bad to.
