Motorola V635 review from Canada
"Get it for one year of use only!"
What things have gone wrong with the mobile phone?
The exterior screen is not well sealed; there's dust IN it.
This thing can happen in 2-3 months.
- The signal is lost (even when 1 sec before was full reception), screen is blank for 4-5secs, and then back to full reception, but you just lost your call.
- You're not using your phone, basically during the night, signal lost, blank page, but it stalls there, it doesn't go back, so even if your phone is closed, the screen is in full white blast all night long, so your battery life is getting closer to 12 hours than 5 days... This also can happen when in your pocket.
General comments?
The interface is really slow, navigating through the different areas in the phone is a pain in the ass.
But the camera is pretty good to take pictures; when I first had it, it was the best camera phone on the market, and still was for a year. Now there's better, but it's still decent.
The video quality is not that good; the definition is quite poor, but still it's better than a lot of cellphones.
Mp3 function is good, sound is excellent quality, but again, these days, there are better alternatives, like 2 speaker cell phones.
The reception is acceptable almost everywhere, but when I'm in my room, which is in the basement, and I get a call, I need to go to the window in order to understand what people are saying.
I had this cell phone 2 years ago, and I'm really impatient to get through my last year of the contract, to be able to get something better, because now if I speak, lets say 10 minutes in a day, I have to charge the phone everyday, and sometimes, it's not enough, it will cut out at the end of the day.
