I have had several phones, and recently purchased a used c343 as a backup, but there were so many issues, I sent it back. Thank goodness I had a great eBay seller. The first c343 he sent the ear speaker would only work if I jammed the phone into the side of my head. I sent that one back, and he sent a different c343. This one worked fine until he battery ran down and I found out the charger slot on the bottom didn't work. The little time I had to use it, the UI was terrible, and the buttons are backward from EVERY other phone I have used.<br /><br />Pros:<br />- Size<br /><br />Cons:<br />- Everything else!</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=370 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=370&r=16583#review16583 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=370&r=16583#review16583 Mon, 15 May 2006 20:14:12 GMT <p><i>hoo186 submitted this review of the Motorola C343 / C343a / C341:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>1</b> (out of 5)</p><p>I bought this phone back in 2004 when I renewed my service. I've put up with it's little problems for close to two years now, and I'm finally changing the phone...since it's time to renew my service. The problems started almost immediately, but most of it were issues that I thought were either battery related, or cell-service related. Also, I use my cell phone as a business and a home phone...so the phone gets fairly heavy usage.<br /><br />Pros:<br />-I like the menu system, and the way you can customize the menu.<br /><br />-The shortcut button feature is customizable<br /><br />-This phone is built like a tank, it can stand drops or bumps without any major damage to the face, screen, or the keys.<br /><br />Cons:<br />-Within 3 months of buying the phone, I had to replace the charger. It kept giving me "unable to charge" error message, and I had to keep taking the prongs in and out until I would get a "charging" message.<br /><br />-about a months after that, the phone started to lock up. I would get a "connecting" message, but nothing would happen, and the only way to fix it was to take the battery out. This problem has continued to this day on a once to three times a day basis.<br /><br />-about three months ago, the ear device started to give out. The phone would ring, but either I could barely hear the person on the other end, or I was completely unable to hear the other person. It started as a fluke problem (1 in a 50 to 60 calls), but it has picked up over time, to the point where I'm unable to hear anything at all without the hands-free headset.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=370 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=370&r=16006#review16006 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=370&r=16006#review16006 Thu, 06 Apr 2006 07:38:33 GMT <p><i>compudude86 submitted this review of the Motorola C343 / C343a / C341:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>had a v120e with verizon, i got a c343 when they first came out with US cellular, switched to verizon and a samsung sgh-a650 (got so pissed at it for dropping calls i threw it and broke it too easily) then a nokia 6015, it was ok, but developed serious circuit problems and would die and drop calls sporadically. i then bought a c343 for verizon, and i would never look back!!!! you talk about it like junk, ive dropped it numerous times, ive put it through some rough conditions that no samsung or nokia could ever handle, and it still works! and to top it off, im buying another one today!!! i love these phones, and wouldnt trade a moto for any other brand, because it just works!!!! it gets range everywhere, whereas samsung and nokia wont, plus ive found through personal research that nokia phones emit high levels of interference, anyways, love my moto c343!!!</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=370 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=370&r=15654#review15654 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=370&r=15654#review15654 Wed, 15 Mar 2006 03:07:22 GMT <p><i>carlotat submitted this review of the Motorola C343 / C343a / C341:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>2.5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>I have owned this phone for 5 miserable months, having switched from Alltel to Verizon and purchasing this "upgrade" as part of the deal. The problems have ranged from the screen advising "No Service" in the middle of town or within eyesight of a tower to many dropped calls, and not being able to hear my caller unless I press the phone very hard to my ear. Additionally, people on the other end can never hear me. I've had it. Tomorrow, it gets tossed and I'll get a new phone--not another Motorola.<br /><br />Want a cheap phone?

I do not use the ear piece on the phone as I have just given up on hearing any one and I used a headset at all times. After 3 months having the phone I still cannot figure out how to do anything with a keylock feature. It can only handle MIDI ringtones. There is no predictive text feature that I can find when writing text messages.<br /><br />There are three good things about this phone, I didn't pay for it and it will get service where my e815 wont. Also, you can store upwards of 200 sent/received text messages without having to delete but you will have noticable lag in key functions... or maybe that is just normal I am not sure.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=370 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=370&r=12744#review12744 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=370&r=12744#review12744 Thu, 27 Oct 2005 02:33:43 GMT <p><i>Roxxie128 submitted this review of the Motorola C343 / C343a / C341:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>4</b> (out of 5)</p><p>I used this phone for over two years (never felt the need to upgrade). The phone lasted well for me. My kids drop it all the time and it seems to take all the abuse quite fine. I do think the hang-up and dial buttons are reversed... but I got used to it. Overall, I have had very little complaints with this phone and am sad to be trading it in for a new one soon. <br /><br />But this phone requires new chargers quite frequently and I'm tired of spending $20 every 6 months on a new charger. For some reason this phone just eats the prongs of the charger and liquefies them until the phone can only charge with MUCH frustration... thus it's time for a new charger. In the 2 years I've owned this phone we've "eaten" four charges. So I've decided to upgrade.<br /><br />Unlike many of you I've had no complaints with the screen, speakers, it's NEVER dropped a call, voice mail seems to work perfectly, and I've found the battery life quite adequate. Really this phone has given me two years of perfect service so I was a bit hesitant to buy a new phone.<br /><br />-Roxxie<br /><br />-Roxxie</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=370 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=370&r=12092#review12092 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=370&r=12092#review12092 Tue, 20 Sep 2005 23:32:54 GMT <p><i>UncleKoolAidKool submitted this review of the Motorola C343 / C343a / C341:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>I love this phone!!! i got it on mi birthday as a present for miself and it was only 50 bucks!!!! mi wallet loved me for it! ha ha and i got it because Virgin Mobile is just ridiculus! they over price everything! and they just have the WORST service ever!!! now this phone works GREAT at My house thanx to Verizon!!! i love their Network... but lets just face it their pre-paid servive is VERY expensive and i just CANNOT afford it being a teen without a JOB! ha ha... and tracfone is great except for the whole roaming thing... and well the phone is AWESOME because it has the appearence of a contract phone without the contract! and the wallpapers are cool and i luv the ringtones!!! well sometimes the screen will start dimming for some reason but that is just a personal problem they said they would fix it but i dont mind and it has no games but i dont mind and again that may just be tracfone well thats all i would DEFINATELY RECCOMEND this phone with tracfone and it says they stopped selling it.. but they didnot something is wrong there...

I own 12 Motorola Hand Held Commercial Radios with no problems. <br /><br />The other complaint I have is with whoever the brain is that designed the Warranty Repair policy. I phoned Motorola regarding my problems. Was told I had to mail in my phone and wait 4 to 6 weeks for repair, and replacement of my charger. Then was informed there are only two service centers in Oklahoma, one in Enid and one in Weatherford. Both are 120 miles from Tulsa. At the end of the call, the person said that Radio Shack is an authorized repair station?<br /><br />We were on the phone for nearly an hour. If you add up my time and the warranty person's time per hour, our time exceeded what mailing me a replacment phone would of cost. <br /><br />Options were to mail in my phone and charger, then wait up to six weeks for repacement or repair. <br /><br />I owned a NOKIA phone for five years prior to owning this Piece of Junk. Only reason I purchased the Motorola C341, was to use it outside of my Cricket Area. I still have the NOKIA, and will be using it again, while waiting for MOTOROLA to attempt to fix or replace my phone for up to SIX WEEKS! <br /><br />PROBLEMS WITH THE C341<br /><br />First the two rubber side strips fell off, must use the same glue as NASA.<br /><br />The case that is so thin creates a Creaking Noise when you hold the phone. <br /><br />The wall charger sometimes charges the phone other times you may think it charged but it did not. <br /><br />Occasionally the back light stays on constantly, until you turn the phone off and back on. <br /><br />The phone has static in it and it occurs if you hold it in a normal fashion, only way you can get it to stop is to hold the phone at the top by the antenna.<br /><br />Headset works for about 2 minutes then quits. <br /><br />Phone will go dead when talking on it, even when it is plugged into the charger. <br /><br />Set the phone for Vibrate and Ring, works fine, but everytime you plug in the charger it resets the phone to Ring Only???</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=370 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=370&r=11512#review11512 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=370&r=11512#review11512 Tue, 23 Aug 2005 22:44:50 GMT <p><i>mrshomey submitted this review of the Motorola C343 / C343a / C341:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>1</b> (out of 5)</p><p>In-spite of the cute, compact design of the C343a, it has proved to me to be a piece of junk. This phone was offered to me as a "free upgrade" about 1 1/2 years ago by Qwest if I signed an additional 1 yr contract. Since then, I have regretted that decision, &amp; I'm still not sure who I am more dissatisfied with - Qwest, or Motorola. After numerous complaints to Qwest concerning the fact that my phone wasn't ringing, it wasn't showing missed calls, &amp; I wasn't receiving voice-mail notifications, nor the actual voice-mail messages themselves, they tried resetting some things, &amp; finally sent me a replacement phone. To this day, I still have the same problems, even with the replacement. Oh, &amp; also, when set to "vibe &amp; ring", the phone only vibrates. I have complained a few more times to Qwest, &amp; they have offered to either replace this phone (with the same model), which I not so graciously declined, or I can purchase a new phone for an astronomical amount of money &amp; extend my contract again - I guess they aren't offering any more "free upgrades". They also advised me that they had only issued this phone with their service for a very short period of time because of equipment problems &amp; complaints - so I basically got a free piece of junk! My last complaint, or should I say my last act of desperation after so many attempts to resolve the continual problems with this phone, was to Motorola. They talked me through a reset of the initial set-up, which Qwest has done several times as well, &amp; told me if that didn't help, I could send it in to them for $75 plus tax, plus blah, blah, blah, to see if they can fix it, or I can drive about 70 miles to the only Motorola service provider around here to see if they can fix it at no charge, except of course my gas &amp; time, which I have already wasted enough of. So, now I'm down to this; maybe it's not my provider, maybe it really is that Motorola manufactured &amp; distributed.......... a complete piece of junk!</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=370 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=370&r=11385#review11385 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=370&r=11385#review11385 Mon, 15 Aug 2005 20:09:00 GMT <p><i>Simon24262 submitted this review of the Motorola C343 / C343a / C341:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>0</b> (out of 5)</p><p>I have had this phone for 1.5 years and finally Verizon is letting me get rid of it.

It just feels cheeply made. And when I text/dial/push anything, the phone cover(origional) squeeks! It drives me nuts! Another thing that bugs me is the text messaging. on my old phone when you wrote a text message you had no interruptions. like when you received a new message, it wouldn't make the message u were typing stop. Now on this phone, when u get a new message it interrupts and stops what ur typing and makes u chose to open it or not. That was the only problem i had when i was buying this phone.<br /><br />Pros: <br />-colorful/playful/fun looking phone<br />-hard keys, not those squishy ones<br />-menu is good<br />-ringtones are ok for what you paid for<br /><br />Cons:<br />-no date displayed!<br />-cant receive pic messages<br />-text thingy<br />-cheeply light weight faceplate<br />-faceplates you buy for it change the phone design totally.

New plan, new phones. Bad idea. We've had Nokia, Audiovox, and Motorola before. This Moto is the worst yet. Poor battery life, keypad never really locks, poor battery life, hard to open to switch batteries or remove battery to reset the phone when it locks up, poor battery life, and oh, did I mention poor battery life? If you set the backlight to come on at all, it comes on when any key is pressed even if the keypad is locked. Shut it off, and chances are it won't turn back on without a reset. Take it out with a full charge, leave it off all day, and it won't have any power when you turn it back on. Keys are backwards, so the "talk" button is on the right. Motorola cut all the corners they could, and it shows.

I've had it for about a year and don't have too many major complaints. The phone is pretty user-friendly and very cute. Good selection of ringtones and customization options. It is pretty durable, as I have dropped it several times and it is still working.<br /><br />Cons: The keys are tiny and the phone is sometimes slow to respond when dialing a number (sometimes I have the whole number dialed before it shows up on the screen and the keypad makes any noise). I had to have the antenna repaired because of dropped calls but ever since it has been fine. This may seem silly, but I wish the screensavers would stay animated like they are in the picture-viewer (when it is actually your screen saver there is little or no movement unless the phone is charging). Also, the phone has "frozen" two or three times (but that's over the course of a year).<br /><br />All in all, not horrible, not great. Just definately better than the Audiovox I used to have.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=370 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=370&r=8559#review8559 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=370&r=8559#review8559 Fri, 25 Feb 2005 18:46:28 GMT <p><i>JoyLCP submitted this review of the Motorola C343 / C343a / C341:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>1</b> (out of 5)</p><p>When I first got this phone it seemed nice, but after about six months it was useless.

The reception is good with this phone and comparable to others I've used. <br /><br />Cons:<br />One problem is that the menus are severely slow to respond while making a call, and slightly less slow normally. Another problem, the phone gets really hot during a long call. <br /><br />HUGE CONS:<br />The problems started in January when the phone began to boot to a lit but black screen. Then the earpiece started to get very quiet. Now the built-in earpiece only works for the first 5 seconds of a conversation. Thank god they include a free hand's free earpiece. <br /><br />Luckily, I turned it in for repair just two days before the warranty ended. USCC is repairing it for free, but I must say that I am disappointed with this. The rep at the store said that this model suffers from a dead earpiece quite often, and he said that this is unusual since the mic is usually more prone to failure. <br /><br />Don't get me wrong, the phone is functional. The navigation is intuitive and the phone is nice, but the problems with slow menus, screen blacking, and a dying earpiece make this phone not worth the hassle.<br /><br />THE GIST:<br />This phone is okay for an entry level user, and especially if you don't use the phone for long conversations that will burn up the earpiece.<br /><br />I digress below:<br />With all that said, I have the means to get a moto V810 for $30 when another one of my family member's contracts is up in a week or so. So I am not hellbent against Motorola or anything. Allthough LG does have some convincing offerings. My GF's LG vx4400 hasn't ever given her a problem, but the reported quality of the RF on the V810 won me over since my college is in the boondocks of WV.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=370 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=370&r=8286#review8286 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=370&r=8286#review8286 Thu, 10 Feb 2005 12:59:47 GMT <p><i>niceifyourlucky submitted this review of the Motorola C343 / C343a / C341:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>1</b> (out of 5)</p><p>Ok so yeah this phone looks cool and its pretty and colorful, but it stops there. I had this phone for 3 months and it died completely died and took every number i had with it so i had the moto 343 then they gave me the moto 341 and it kept dying the bat life sucked so i got a new bat didnt help. Also it took people 5 times to actually get a hold of me then 3 months after i got that phone it died on me. thats 2 phones in 7 months. Thats not good if they die on you but to have two die on you that means the phones suck</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=370
