| arnons_1's Full Review: Motorola P7389 Cell Phone |
The phone is very stylish, includes an above average WAP Broswer, voice dialing and a 3 minute voice recorder.
Among it's other features is vibration, SMS with Word Prediction for easy keying, and custom ringtones.
The phone is quite difficult to use at first, because of the messy interface.
You have many menus, and no explanation whatsoever as for what they do, but after a few hours, you can get to know the phone, and even use the Shift key to get easy access to your most used features.
The phone also includes a useful feature for removal of menu items you don't use much.
Another Pro is the lightweight. The phone weighs less than almost any other phone in the market, even though it has one of the longest lasting battery life in the market.
The Tri-band option, lets you travel all over the world, without having to rent a phone or change anything.
All you do is hit the Shift key and 6, and you're ready, unlike other GSM phones which would be rendered useless.
The last feature for this review is the iR port, which lets you communicate with Palm OS devices and use the phone to access the internet through the Palm. It can also be used to communicate with laptop computers and other phones.
The phone includes software to communicate with the computer for easier storing of phone numbers.
In conclusion, the Motorola P7389 is a good phone for business users and over-sea travelers. It's durable, has excellent battery life, it's cheap, has terrific sound quality, and it has a nice glowing screen.
