I can make and receive calls from out in the middle of nowhere and even in the middle of Detroit doing maintenance inside of an old school bomb shelter!<br />It's small and durable, and I talk on it one hour of every day, and with an 1100mah battery, I have to charge the phone every two days.<br />I've owned it for 4 years and its been dropped 30 times or so. The only thing that recently happened to it was the ringer/speakerphone speaker blew and had to be replaced.<br /><br />It's got a camera but lets face it, mobile phones were not meant to be used as cameras! I use the camera on the V235 to take video and I understand what I can use it for and what I cannot. <br />It's also really nice that it has the standard usb jack on the phone, so any computer could potentially charge the phone AND you can use Motorola Phone Tools to backup your contacts or even operate the phone. I can text using my computer keyboard when I hook up the phone to my PC.<br />It's one of the 3 watt or higher powered transmission phones that they USED to make and, well, its amazing.</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=686 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=686&r=23449#review23449 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=686&r=23449#review23449 Tue, 12 Jun 2007 18:39:26 GMT <p><i>tgfree submitted this review of the Motorola V235:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>4</b> (out of 5)</p><p>Got my V235 as a replacement for a V220 from Cingular about a year a go. My screen messed up on the V220. I love my V235 and it has more features than the V220. Only thing I hate about the V235 is the smaller display when you look at the pix you take. But with the mini usb you can connect it to your PC and with Motorola phone tool you can see your pix and put your on MP3's on it and use them as ringtones but it don't have that much memory for storage I think it like 9MB. Over all great phone to have good battery life long talk time. I give it A+++</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=686 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=686&r=23325#review23325 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=686&r=23325#review23325 Mon, 04 Jun 2007 15:23:35 GMT <p><i>x3__SAMMi__x3 submitted this review of the Motorola V235:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>hello moto ringtone!?!</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=686 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=686&r=22726#review22726 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=686&r=22726#review22726 Tue, 01 May 2007 08:15:30 GMT <p><i>Guido_Vitale submitted this review of the Motorola V235:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>Before I got my Motorola V235 I had a Siemens C66 and a Sony Ericsson Z500 and I have to say that my Moto V235 beats them in many aspects.<br />Firstly, it is very CHEAP for all the features it comes with. I bought it to Movsitar (Argentina) with a pre-paid plan for only 269 pesos! (approx U$S 88). It has an acceptable VGA camera, it plays MP3 (quite neat for the price), it has a very strong and reliable signal reception, it has a fast software, and it has an attractive design too.<br /> When I bought it, it came with 8 mb of free memory but I figure that if I deleted all that Movistar propaganda such as images, wallpapers, screensavers, etc, it would rise to 10mb.<br /> Besides, it vibes &amp; rings at the same time, which not many Motos of that price do (at least in Argentina).<br /> I think it could be compared to much more expensive phones, except for the absence of Bluetooth and an MP3 player.<br /><br />PROS:<br />- Lightweight<br />- Small<br />- Quite neat VGA camera<br />- MP3s sound nice on it<br />- Good aspect<br />- Good reception<br />- CHEAP<br /><br />CONS:<br />- No Bluetooth (though I'm cool with it... it's a cheap phone!)<br />- The stub antenna could be considered a con, but you can replace it for a smaller one if you want (I personally wouldn't do it, since it's so tacky, but it's you you)</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=686 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=686&r=22202#review22202 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=686&r=22202#review22202 Fri, 23 Mar 2007 06:03:29 GMT <p><i>phoneguru55 submitted this review of the Motorola V235:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>3.5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>had this phone for about six months <br />love the ringtones and the volume<br />bought it from walmart for 99.00 perfect price<br /><br />after about 3 months the phone flip started wobbling? and fell apart</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=686 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=686&r=21311#review21311 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=686&r=21311#review21311 Wed, 24 Jan 2007 18:40:10 GMT <p><i>Nikyla submitted this review of the Motorola V235:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>2</b> (out of 5)</p><p>I bought this phone for full price because I broke my V551 and was only 3 months into my contract. Just bought it because it was cheap. Not very many features and sometimes the screen would just go blank and I would have to wait a few minutes before I could do anything, or do a hard reset. I wouldn't really recommend buying it, there are a lot of better quality phones that are also cheap.<br /><br />PROS:<br /><br />Good Sound Quality in Victoria BC on Fido, never any dropped calls<br />Buttons are big easy to press<br />Predictive text works good for fast text messages<br />Sturdy, I threw across the room into the wall before and was fine<br />Battery lasts for 3 or 4 days without having to charge, although I'm not on the phone 24/7 either<br /><br /><br />CONS:<br />Ringtones don't sound very good on it<br />When in Boston MA and Rhode Island experienced dropped calls (But phone was running on Cingulars network)<br />Almost 50% of calls dropped while in Calgary on Fido Network<br />Camera is not very good, when you send pictures to the computer they are so small you can't even tell what they are of.<br />Can't take pictures unless there is tons of sunlight or else you can't tell what the picture is of.<br />Phone gets scratched easily so doesn't look good after a while</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=686 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=686&r=20392#review20392 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=686&r=20392#review20392 Thu, 07 Dec 2006 21:42:58 GMT <p><i>cell-lover submitted this review of the Motorola V235:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>i got this phone and i cant stop using it!i've been thru a lot of phones and this is definiteley the best i ever had.<br /><br />PROS:<br />nice camera<br />nice video recording <br />syncs with pc<br />great sound quality<br />nice speaker(you can close the phone)<br />make ringtones<br />cheap<br /><br /><br />CONS:<br />no bluetooth<br />doesnt come with software</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=686 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=686&r=19391#review19391 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=686&r=19391#review19391 Tue, 17 Oct 2006 21:14:12 GMT <p><i>ChieflandFL submitted this review of the Motorola V235:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>This phone is great!

Though I do not need many features but you do get the bang for your buck. <br /><br />The Motorola V235 is a life saver for me. My V220 screen died and I am 7-weeks from my upgrade date with Cingular. It was my 2nd v220 as the first one had a defect in the receiver and it's replacement died! I did not want to spend $200++, sign a new contract with 5 months left. I have the insurance, $50 ded, but they will send me another V220. Remember 1st time shame on you, 2nd time shame on me, 3rd you are just a dumb-a... The in-store representatives (2 men) were virtually useless (in every sense of the word). I remembered what the pleasant representative (a lady) from the 800 number told me 2-days before I drove to the Cingular store - you can get a Go Phone and place your SIM card in it and it will work. That was also verified my the Walmart sales person (another lady). She was so kind and understand of my problem (the total frustration) and offered to remove my SIM card from the old phone and insert it in my new phone. <br /><br />I can/could spend $200++ on a new phone but I do not see the need. I do not like a wireless carrier holding you hostage and controlling my money. The Cingular in-store representatives are just Sales People - no service. I do hate Cingular but unfortunately they do have good coverage. Though, I can control the amount of money I spend with them. <br /><br />Tell everyone in a situation (like mine) that they can purchase a Pay As You Go Phone and just insert your SIM card. As Martha would say, "That's a Good Thing".<br /><br />So far, I like the V235 so much that I am not upgrade when I can!</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=686 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=686&r=17908#review17908 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=686&r=17908#review17908 Tue, 25 Jul 2006 10:56:13 GMT <p><i>rynmcdnl submitted this review of the Motorola V235:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>2.5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>Got this phone about 2 weeks ago from Wal-Mart for about $97 from Cingular GOphone. I have to say I am very satisfied with my purchase. The phone is a tremendous step up from my old V170. The screen is quite large, and just the right size for displaying pictures and text. The buttons on the keypad are neatly arranged, and easy to navigate with. I love the fact that this phone has a camera, with 4x digital zoom, which can also record video. A couple problems with this phone would be that when you go to take a picture, the screen is nearly cut in half by a black box with all your options on it, which doesn't leave a lot of room to view your picture. Overall this phone is GREAT. I love it!<br /><br />PROS<br />Large display screen.<br />Camera with 4x zoom.<br />Picture quality is great.<br />Sound is great.<br />reception is fantastic.<br />BATTERY LIFE IS ASTOUNDING! Nearly 2 and half-3 days of batterly life before needing charged, permitably more if you wait until battery meter is completely drained.<br /><br />CONS <br />Backlight for the buttons isn't exactly bright...<br />Camera mode is cut in half by a black box,<br />same for when u view a picture.<br />If you set a picture you took yourself as your wallpaper be cautious, for it will expand larger than it appears when views.<br />not a wide variety of ringtone choices,<br />same with wallpaper choices, but there are plenty of downloads.<br /><br />Overall I recommend this phone to ANYONE! It's by far the greatest phone I've ever owned.</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=686 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=686&r=17888#review17888 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=686&r=17888#review17888 Mon, 24 Jul 2006 13:42:23 GMT <p><i>powercellular submitted this review of the Motorola V235:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>4.5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>As a Cellular Sales person I get the opportunity to demo many phones.

It boasts a lot more features like video camera,a bigger screen and the looks of a top of the line phone. The phone is about $97.00 with prepaid from Cingular, and The camera is approx. 1.3 Megapixel (great for a phone) The Video camera is OK, and does the job. What I really like about this phone is the capability to back up, restore, and trasfer data to and from it via your computer and the USB port on the bottom. I like this because you can make YOUR OWN ringtones from your music collection, put some of your pictures on it from your computer, and save the pictures and video taken from the phone rght to your computer, without paying to send them from your phone in a text message. Think about it: Free ringtones, wallpapers, music, pictures, all is a nice small package, which is sleek, yet durable, how can this phone get any better? There isn't one thing i do not like about this phone<br /><br />Dave<br />MGA Studios<br />CEO</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=686 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=686&r=17018#review17018 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=686&r=17018#review17018 Fri, 09 Jun 2006 21:11:57 GMT <p><i>tischmic submitted this review of the Motorola V235:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>This phone is a lot better than the v220, a lot more features like video cam. bigger screen and looks a lot better.
