Motorola V710
What's wrong with the Ear Speaker?
I went to demo this phone in the Verizon store yesterday and was surprised that the ear piece was so limited. I just moved a fraction of an inch and couldn't hear anything. Why would anyone design a phone that the ear piece can't be heard?????? Isn't this a primary funciton of a phone, i.e. to properly hear a conversation?
I ended up with the Samsung SCH-A670, which overall appeared to be a much better phone. Much higher quality materials, much smaller and far superior reception and sound. I understand everyone loves the bluetooth stuff and SD cards but shouldn't a phone just be clear and allow an easy conversation to flow? When did the quality of sound become secondary to all other phone features? 😳

I agree. You have to hold the V710 at a weird position in order to hear at a different volume. Other than the speaker phone, the bluetooth, and the traansflash/sd card features I think both the LG and Samsung are better at basic functionality.
I realize we are in a v710 forum so please dont get offended V710 affcianados. This forum is for posting objective opinions both bad and good and I'm trying to be objective. With that sad I will probably keep my V710 until I can do an early upgrade and something along the lines of the vx8000 or something newer comes out.

oh, and in addition to being better at basic functionality, they have better cameras despite the 1.2mp spec.
