User Review for Motorola W230
No camera? No problem!
Apr 24, 2008Rating: 8 out of 10 (Excellent)
Pros: Radio + MP3 is really solid! Ability to do other things while enjoying music
Cons: To switch between radio and MP3 in speaker mode, you have to uplug the headset
Opinion:
Bought it for $138 at Planet Telecoms. Found it to be a pretty good phone, considering the fact that there is a demand for non-camera phones as army camps restrict camera phones. Allows you to enjoy seamless music while on the go, whether you're above ground or underground. It also allows a MicroSD card to be used, and you can set those files as ringtones. Furthermore, you can record song clips from radio stations while listening!
One thing I didn't really enjoy is the quick switch to headset/speaker mode using the * button. You can accidentally press it and the sound would go to the speakers. Buttons were not rigid enough, and sometimes not very sensitive. However, despite the lack of camera and these small glitches, I had no complains with the phone. It should be called the Music Genius!
