| pichis's Full Review: Motorola V8162 Cell Phone |
I used to have the Star Tack and I had a terrible time with I, bad reception, calls would disconnect I hated my phone. About two years ago a changed to this little Motorola the first of this “v” series, they were not digital yet but there was no digital service in my area yet so who cared. All my friends warned me that such a small phone would get terrible reception and the battery would not last at all but they had not actually used it yet. I discovered it was a great phone, best reception I had experienced in a cell and actually the battery lasted much more than the Star Tac added to the size and some great features for the time like the answering machine, yes inside the phone not a service, it was the phone for me.
About four months ago I had the opportunity to change my cell because my contract on the one I had was over, I could actually get whatever phone I wanted for a low cost because I have been with the same company for years. I looked around and saw what was new and I definitely had to get the new v series. Now with digital service in the area this new v8162 is perfect, better reception than before, my experience is that the battery will last me between one an one and a half days with a good amount of talking time the fast charging capability is also a great advantage you can plug it in for 15 minutes and it will last you a long time or leave it for two hours and it is fully charged. Of course very convertible to carry as the prior I had because of the small size, you can put it in your belt or in your jacket and will not feel it. The gadgets that it has are enough for my personal use, the ID, directory, answering, incoming call storage, security, alarms and other fun things like different rings and such stuff.
Some people will say it is to small and they will lose it but for me it is comfortable and gives me a great service.
