Pros: Lightweight, Sturdy, Good sound quality, internet access.
Cons: Signal not always great. Not in color, like many newer phones.
The Bottom Line: If you can still find one of these, and you don't need the color and the "vision" features some providers offer, then get this phone.

| gsx1300r's Full Review: Motorola V8162 Cell Phone |
I have had mine for well over a year. I have two batteries, and rotate them - but the life of each is plenty. I use the phone for about 3,000 minutes per month and have a handsfree kit installed for use in the car.. The phone is about as small as can be.. I guess it *could* get smaller, but any smaller would be too small, in my opinion. The phone has fallen occasionally from up to 4 feet and has never stopped working, so any review that says the phone doesn't feel sturdy is wrong! I use Sprint and have the "wireles web" feature, which is great. I check and send email and am able to surf the web. It's not as fancy as some of the newer phones, but it gets the job done.
