| shelley1478's Full Review: Motorola Timeport P8767 Cell Phone |
I previously had the Motorola StarTac phone and hated it. My calls were constantly dropped or wouldn't come thru at all. I was so annoyed and fought with my cell phone company about the whole ordeal. They then promised me that the new Motorola Timeports where the fix to the drop calls/calls not coming thru. I was doubting what they said, they offered to let me try it for a couple weeks before purchasing the new phone to see if their claims were true. I feel in love with the phone. I no longer had dropped calls and my calls were always coming thru. I couldn't belive it a phone by the same maker and almost the exact same design could have such different results. I went back to the store and bought the phone a week later. Of course the phone is slightly larger than the StarTAC but worth it. The reception is clear, the features are wonderful...but the price wasn't more of a sticker shock. The exterior of the phone is a wonderful plantinum color however, I have a tendency to drop my phone on numerous occasions and I've started to notice the exterior is almost like a paint that is started to chip in the areas that it's been dropped. However, as many times as i have dropped in on pavement, tile floors and carpet, it hasn't skipped a beat and has yet to give me any problems.
