For the price of $130 this is a great phone. I have been able to download wallpapers, ringtones, and screensavers. The only complaint I have is how do I get rid of the service provider, clock and time off the screen so I can see the wallpapers better.

                  A loverly phone for only £29.99 at woolworths..i read the reviews & the complaints seemed to centre around the large font...i however found the large font a bonus to those with poor sight...also the screen is bright & the buttons are a loverly blue colour & are not to small for folks with large fingers (like myself)....at £30.00 its a great bargain....get one before woolworths sell out!

                      Superb phone. Purchased new 28 May from Woolworths, Totnes, Devon, UK, £30 (c.US$55). Other Woolworths stores in UK should offer same.

                            I bought this phone under the guise I could download ringtones. The manual had directions on how to connect to the web, though the web was not located anywhere in the main menu or sub menus . . . after 35 minutes of that, I e-mailed NET10 wireless and they said they didn't know when their web services would be available. So, now I'm stuck with a phone that can only be used as a phone. The screen is way too small. However, it does get great reception. I rarely dropped below 5 bars-- while talking inside Target in the bathroom!! Now that's service. In my opinion, if you want a phone just for emergencies and you're not into anything too fancy, then this phone is for you . .. though, the price is too steep for what it's worth. You can buy other "basic" phones for less than $40. I just purchased a Motorola v220 and it should be here in the mail today (I hope). I was disapointed, but now I need to get rid of it. I bought it when it first came out last month. (sigh) . . . Thanks.

                              Hey there,

                              Is this phone like all the other motorola's...?
                              e.g. when you turn it on does it play the same tone with the M Logo in a red background. And the same pre-loaded polyphonic ringingtones, and how many channels does this phone have?

                              Im thinking of buying it???

                              thanks.

                                    the Motorola V171 lookx very cute and small but the only bad thing bout it, is that it doesn't ave a camera in it :'( Every phone should have a camera in it now a days. Good looking phone though.

                                      good price...the front cover looks good, but that's about it :(

                                      The screen is small and it looks plain when you open the flip

                                        Nowhere can I find how many phone numbers this phone can store in its phonebook. I even read the entire pdf manual. It doesn't say. Not here either. I would like to know before buying it.
