Motorola Timeport P8167 Cell Phone

Pros: LIGHT, COMPACT, RELIABLE, GOOD RECEPTION
Cons: BACKLIGHT DEFECT

I PURCHASED MY TIMEPORT BECAUSE I MOVED TO A NEW HOUSE AND FOUND IT WORTHLESS TO PAY FOR A LAND LINE THAT I WAS NOT GOING TO USE, I FOUND THIS PHONE THAT I COULD PLUG INTO MY COMPUTER AND USE MY CELLULAR MINUTES. THIS IS I GREAT IDEA!!! I WAS VERY...

Pros: Excellent sound, reception, and button layout.
Cons: Broke antenna off 4 times!

Well after having a disappointing time with the Sanyo 4000 I spent some good coin on this bad boy. I had read a review and heard great things about this phone, this was two years ago, and I've been happy since the day I bought it. It has a few cons: Such...

Pros: Stylish, dependable, durable, a great phone
Cons: none

I used to have a Motorola V.8162 (the really tiny tiny one) and i like it for a couple of weeks. then it went crazy on me. Everything i could think of went wrong. My friend had a Timeport P8767 (with the three color screen) and she loved it. then,...

Pros: Great Battery Life. Do I need more than one Pro??
Cons: Bad reception. Scratches VERY easily. Poor Navigation.

I'd would have liked to start this out with some pros about the of the Motorola Time Port phone, but since their aren’t any I’ll move along with my review. In theory, it's sleek 21st century design and look should have made this one of the best phones...

Pros: Small, lightweight, improved screen.
Cons: Battery life is too short.

I'm a SprintPCS user and I too carried a StarTac for several years until it died. I purchased this phone after seeing it and without visiting Epinions. I enjoy it's size, durability, and the fact that it's a dual band device enabling me to make analog...

Pros: Big screen and It is easy to read and make out who is calling you.
Cons: The antenna never stays up.

The Motorola Timeport P8167 Cellular Phone is very compact it tucks into the tiniest places. The Timeport is extremely durable I can not tell you how many times I have dropped the phone on the pavement and never any damage.

The screen on...

Pros: Wearable phone. Motorola reliability. The vibrate feature is really nice.
Cons: Menu system is kind of difficult to use. Hard to understand all of the features.

Crystal clear reception, seamless analog/digital switching. A great phone, the talk time is really good too, considering the size and weight of the battery. The display lights up nicely at night, and is easily read in the daytime as well. The volume...

Pros: Lightweight, long lasting battery
Cons: bad reception, average quality, expensive, hard to remember functional shortcuts

Motorola Timeport is the first flip phone I own. My first cell phone weighted a couple of pounds and was not very functional, then after numerous upgrades I got one of the first digital Qualcomm phones which was not very lightweight and compact but...

Pros: Dual Mode.
Cons: It needs just a little more.

Dual


I have had cell coverage for what seems like forever, I am extremely committed to my provider. In the past two years I have had only two cell providers, Bell Atlantic (Verizon) and Sprint. I review those as well.

Now on...

Pros: Many WORKING features making it WELL worth the money.
Cons: Internet capability still in infancy stages but interesting.

The new Motorola Timeport is a quantum leap forward in cellphones from my perspective. Please indulge me with a somewhat lengthy introduction as to how I arrived at this startling conclusion.

I had carried a little black Motorola...

Pros: Sleek and very stylish
Cons: expensive

After a horrible cell phone experience, I found myself back in a cell phone store 3 years later. I looked around and immediately the Timeport caught my eye. It is a perfect silver color and the display is a bright aqua. Looks-wise this phone has got...

Pros: Small, user friendly, dual band, web browser
Cons: expensive to replace

I got this phone from Verizon Wireless with an annual contract for 80 bucks, however dont lose it, the replacement value is around 300 bucks. I have it forr 6 months, and it works great. It has time, backlite, phone memory, its dual band, it also has a...

Pros: WAP enabled phone
Cons: small display

Timeport was one of the first WAP enabled phones to hit the market. It resembles the Motorola StarTac phone. It is encased in a clam shell and has a skinny profile. It sends and receives calls, but also allows users to access Web services. This...

Pros: reception, uncomplicated menu, good voice quality
Cons: hinge point squeaks and gets worse with age, silver paint flakes off, inconsistent quality control

OK, I was having trouble with my Sprint dual band Startac, so Sprint replaced it with a Timeport. I somehow wish I still had my trusty old MicroTac Lite, as this was the last Motorola product I owned that could be classified as "bulletproof". The...

Pros: Rugged, included carrying case (woohoo), Motorola quality
Cons: Scratches way too easy, Motorola price, dumb feature setups

I know quite a bit about this phone since I've owned this phone for approx. two years (see my review on Sprint PCS Service)... and I have very little bad to say about it.
Before this phone, I had a Samsung 3500 - not a bad little phone but this was...
