I have only had this phone for a couple of days but I am extremely impressed with the clarity of the reception. I have had three phones in the last week and several more over the last year. This phone is by far the most enjoyable to talk on.
It has a multitude of features that I will not use but among the ones I will use are a voice recorder or "Note book",voice dialing which is very handy once it is set up and an adequate manual to help you through the set up process.
I was needing a small phone and have been unhappy with the "candy bar" style phones that always leave a little too much sticking out of a shirt pocket. I work construction and a clip or belt carrier do not work well for me because I am always dragging the phone off my hip or raking it against something. I am best suited with a phone that I can secure in a button up shirt pocket.
I wish it had a little louder ring but it is average and comparable to most phones short of the Motorola 331 which has a very loud ring but much poorer performance.
I hear people crystal clear and they hear me equally well on the V60T.
I also drive to and from work in the dark often with the car radio on and between engine noise and the car radio it is difficult for me to hear any phone ring. The V60T has a flashing green light that blinks when standing by and changes to an alternating flashing red and green light when someone is calling. This is a good feature for those who are hard of hearing and in the dark like myself!
It has an adequate F.M. receiver that displays in the menu when connected to an earphone. I doubt that I will use it much but if some news worthy event pops up and I am stuck at work I will depend on it to keep me informed. This feature shuts down in the event of an incoming call.
All in all it is the clearest phone that I have had on both ends of the conversation.
Battery life seems good but this has never been an issue for me with any phone.
If size and clarity are issues for you I recommend that you take a look at the V60T.
I had to buy mine outright because I already had a program and wrecked my last phone at work but it was $330.00 with a home and mobile charger and a hands free head set. I have seen them advertised for $200.00
with a two year program.
Thanks
