Customer Reviews
Worst Phone I All the time Owned
I bought this phone because it seemed unrefined (great marketing MOTO) and because it was a quad-band. I bought it reasonable before traveling to Germany and Iraq. It worked just neat in Germany, despite T-mobile's outrageous out of country charges. (isn't T-active based out of Germany?). I had no problem sending texts or making calls. It seemed to trade just fine in Kuwait as well. It also worked ok on the AsiaCell network in Iraq, for the beforehand 4 months. I can make calls after about 4 tries as per usual, which I guess isn't a big deal considering the location.
BAD NEWS:
-This sentiment is a nightmare to navigate. Seriously who designed this?
-Clock resets randomly. Clock manifest in promo images doesn't exist.
-Alarm doesn't occupation. Repeat, ALARM DOESN'T WORK. After you manage to sail to the "Fun & Apps" menu, to the Organizer, then to the Alarm, and then utilize a subsytem of pop-up menus, hero your alarm, set the time, ring tone, ring capacity, then go BACK into the alarm menu, and 'enable' the distress-signal, it simply doesn't go off. I set a series of 5 alarms, all within five minutes of respectively other as a test. Nothing. watched each minute tick by with no distress-signal at all. Back in the menu, all the alarms were still there, set to the befitting time, loud ring tone, and enabled. Phone was on loudest location as well. What gives?
-Battery life is abysmal. Command not last more than 18 hours fully charged with zero use.
-Camera is horrendous. Everything turns pink.
-Now, after four months with no problems traveling internationally, this inanimate object won't receive calls.
I'll probably never buy Motorola again. As soon as I get in arrears to the states I'm having a showdown with t-mobile. I'll probably end up having to fall for absorb the cost of this phone and just go back to my trusty Nokia soapbar. Lively and learn I guess.
This phone sucks, stay to another place.

Whatever you do, do not buy this phone!
I require had this phone for over a year, and it has been nothing but problems. My cousin and my dad bought this phone at the even so time, as well. My dad constantly complains about some new unruly with his, and my cousin gave up and bought another phone.
In this's a list of the negative factors I alone have experienced.
- Grave battery life
- Soft keypad, which has a neat aspect, makes texting for an extended amount of time difficult and on the level painful
- Extremely difficult and complicated to set up address book.
- Confuses audio files (Standard: will play the Friends theme song when clicking on a Hayley Westenra melody)
- Will sometimes refuse to display when opened, and does not reply to the power button when this happens. The only explication is to remove the battery and then replace it.
- Must be turned off at smallest number of once every 48 hours (at the most; 24 to be innocuous) or will stop receiving texts until turned off/bankrupt on.
- Not nearly as durable as advertised
- Bad camera quality
- Takes a desire time to load when first turned on
- Only so-so ringtone sum total

be wary - not even for basic use
I wanted to like this phone. I like the looks of it, the ruggedness, and it didn't accept a bunch of bells and whistles that I didn't need.
I upgraded two words on my family plan to the Motorola ACTV phones in January 2009, and I have not under any condition been so disappointed. We only use the phones for calls, we don't text, transport pictures, or play music. However, the batteries drain within a day (mostly on standby)and when I try to sortie either phone, I generally have to shut them off, shift/replace the battery and reboot before they will be start out charging. Sometimes I have to do this more than one time! Generally, when I turn them off, I have to remove/return the battery before the phones will turn back on. It sheer annoying to have a phone that shows 2 out of three bars of mobile life left and before I know it, it's telling me I have a low mobile. After threatening to cancel my service, T-Mobile is allowing me to upgrade anew after only 9 months. I did exchange one of the phones, however, I bear continued to have the same problems and since it cost me $10 shipping totally T-mobile for an even exchange, I decided it wasn't worth bothersome to more than once.

To be sure ' Awful
Not at any time had a phone that is less dependable. Like another reviewer said, my mobile also lasts barely 1.5 days, and that's with perhaps 10 min. of talk. I had them send me a new battery, but it's the same feature with that one. Forget games. You get "who wants to be a millionaire," and that's your at most choice. I just wanted tetris or solitaire for those yearn waits. It randomly changes your settings when it feels like it. Lastly, it deletes info when it feels like it. I downloaded a ringtone, but it deleted it. When T-transportable resent it, it said that its not compatible. This phone is a olla podrida.
