Pros:Size, Weight, Dual Mode
Cons:Poor reception, out of date
The Bottom Line: great phone for small size... just make sure you don't lose it (I have a few times)

Overall great phone for size, weight, and feel.

Unfortunately it sometimes lacks the power to send and recieve signals inside buildings.

Battery life is good lasting for a few days when not in use and for over 3 hours when in use. Analog battery life is pretty bad, but what analog phone's battery life isn't. Phone tends to get pretty warm when used in analog or when talking for any length of time. This is nice in the winter but kind of annoying in the summer.

My phone has been sat on, dropped, used in the rain, fell on when skiing and had no problems at all. Overall it's a very durable phone.

Although it is a great phone Motorola's new timeport accepts all StarTac accsessories and has aditional features for the same price.

Recommended: Yes


Amount Paid (US$): 150
