I've really come to enjoy this little phone. It's leaps and bounds better than my old Nokia 8265. It took some getting use to, the send and end buttons are reversed on the Motorola v60t. The menu was a bit different but I absolutely love the ability to customize the menu buttons to what I want. I haven't experienced any dropped calls but the reception could be better. The battery is alright, I keep it on all the time, so I get about three days from a single charge. One great feature is that my v60t doesn't heat up when I talk on it for long periods.

So, if you're looking to get a phone, the v60t is a pretty solid phone with some great features. NOKIA - don't even get me started!

Considering that someone gave me the phone for free about over a year ago, I cannot complain too much about the phone.

Pro's: Clamshell design, tough, and keypad is decent sized, eye-candy for a TDMA device.

Con's: Buggy software (constantly switches from analog to digital on the Cingular preferred nation network causing calls to drop), antiquated technology...even when I got it a year ago, too many sub-menus when programming, no alarm to speak of, no downloadable ring-tones, sub-par quality phone reception quality (a lot of static).

Styling very good. Sound quality very good.
We services not very good. Can't download ring tones. Overall if you just want to talk it does the job well. Browser is very simple and not in color which limits effectiveness.

I currently work in the industry and sell many phones on a daily basis. I currently own the v60t. It is my 4th "flip" phone I have owned and I am a bit disappointed which is a big surprise for me being a motorola product. The reception is poor and very "staticky" even when I do have a full signal. It is absolutely necessary to recharge the phone on a daily basis or it will be dead within a day and a half. It has been that way since I bought it brand new. I also like to download ringtones...forget about it with this phone..it wont happen.
However, on the other side, it is just about indestructable...I have dropped it more times than I care to remember, had it thrown out of a moving car window by a toddler and nearly digested by my great dane. It simply wont die. It is very simple to use, for those who want a conservative simple phone.
To sum it up, I would skip this particular model (t) and look into a g or gi (if your carrier provides gsm) or an i model (tdma or cdma) if you are looking for a v60. I am not an engineer and I dont know what they have done different software wise with those phones, but I have heard from some of my customers they work great and they are very satisfied.

User Review: Nice looking phone - buggy software

Me and my wife both bought got these phone when they came out - how could you not like them. Sleek and elegant. Loved the outside caller ID display. I also bought the handsfree kit that turned this phone into the FM radio - that was really nice (I used it alot). Battery life was good, signal was good as well. The antennas on both of our phones broke but hey thats what Signal insurance is for. The only downside to this phone seemed to be the software. My wifes would stop responding until you pulled the battery and refuse to allow you to answer calls. The scheduler was useless, your alarms would go off when they damn well felt like it - never when you set them to. The menu were hard to learn as well, they could have taken a few cues from Nokia in that area but I am a techno geek so that didnt bother me near as much as my phone taking control away from me - I hope the software problem have been fixed by now.

User Review: V60t/DFW, TX/ATTWS

This phone has very good audio characteristics. Sound is much better than on other TDMA based ATTWS phones i have used (Nokia 8260, 6360).
My only complaint is it does not have a calculator or a functional alarm clock. You can set alarms for "events" but not a stand alone alarm clock.
I find the phone to be very solid in its build and also has excellent battery life. The charger it comes with does not charge the phone as quickly as my nokias travel charger, but it does the job.
A great phone, not worth the initial high price tag, but now that they are being greatly discounted i would recomend it in TDMA version on AT&T's service in the DFW metroplex.

I work for TXU in Dallas, TX and have had this phone as a demo for 2 days to try out thoroughly. Let me now forget to mention that my previous cell service provider for both myself and my wife was Sprint PCS and trust me they sucked really badly!!!! I used to have to upgrade the software on my previous Sanyo 4500 in order to alleviate some of the dropped call problem that I have been incurring.

Then comes this Motorola v.60t with cingular's service. I do not know whether it is the phone or the provider but the experience sucked here big time as well!! The first night alone I dropped 4 calls. Considering having read what the reviews were from the previous users, I was having greater expectations from this phone, especially considering that Cingular advertises that their nationwide plans offer no long distance charges (like every carrier out there today does) and no roaming charges. On the second night, I was able to talk fine till the battery started to go out on me. Then calls started to sound staticky and fuzzy on the recipients end. The sound occasionally came in breaking up on both ends as well. After dealing with Sprint PCS's nuances prior, I was like, "Oh no! Not again!"

The billing will be another fit I would have expected from Cingular but that is a whole other story and can of worms.

If I were you folks, I would strongly consider the v.60c from Verizon Wireless's services over this. Particularly considering that Verizon has the largest owned network in the country.

It could even be that I live in a "Cell Hell" considering that I have had problems with two straight cell phone providers. I am considering trying another demo as either a Nokia or the Motorola v120t and see how that works out. This might help determine whether the service stinks or the phones do. Or it just could be that I had a defective piece.

I've owned over 12 phones in the past 7 years and this phone is by far my favorite one. Great sound quality, fairly intuitive menu system, holds signal well.
