This phone is a minion of the antichrist. It has caused me nothing but stress and inconvenience. My screen only seems to work when it wants to and i have to plaster myself against the window when i talk in order to get any service.

      this phone sucks! the back panel is constantly falling off, and now i've completely lost it, so the battery is now totally exposed. the menu button is really hard to push and i always push other keys trying to get to it.

        Idk about this phone but the v180 has a lot of glitches and is a really bad phone. I know a lot of people that have them that have had the same problems

        My whole screen is purple

          this is a basic phone, no camera, no mp3 and no card slot, i never got problems using this phone. it's was perfect to me before a bastard thief me. the keyboard is also very good, no small buttons and not a lot of "shortcut" buttons thats make the phone look heavy and crappy. just the price don't fit very well, but it was a good phone for me. i think the screen could be larger (176x220)and a bit more memory would be fine, anyway it still a good phone.

            well the v186 and the v180 are pretty much the same and I must say i'm very happy with this phone, i guess i'm lucky because I almost been a year with it and it has no problems on calls (static,etc) and nothing has happened to the lights of the keyboards or the text messages :D

              I think that I have the v186. And it has been working well. The one I had before was the v180 and it wasn't a very good one, I had gotten it in march, and it stoped working in about 5 months. the srceen went black, when I answered the phone it would hang up on who was calling unless I opened it like a granny, the screen magically broke out of nowhere, I had only accidently droped it once and it didn't have any problems, this was about the second month I had it. I had to send for a new one because eventually I couldn't even answer phone calls even if I tried every way possible. All of my pictures of my friends in the army are lost. And it's all because of the v180. Now as I said I have the v186, I think and I have only had it for a few months. So far it is much better than the first one but it likes to literally jump out of my pocket or lap, my feonce verifies. But if there is anymore problems with motorola I am going to switch companies permanantly. If I have a question, why are there so many manufacuring defects in the motorola phones and they are still being continued. If I continue with this company will I have to eventually worry about my ear being blown off by my phone exploding (nicest way possible)?

                  This phone is horrible. My first one it worked well for a bit, but then the screen started to look like a nintendo game gone bad. It became a big blob of colors and could not make out what anything was. So then I got a replacement phone, which no one could hear me even when I had full reception. Then finally I received a third replacement, and it even was worse.

                    This phone is the worst I have evr had. i begged my dad for it and now I wish i wouldn't have. it worked good for the first 4 months but then the screen started blacking during calls and while i was doing things. my voicemail doesn't work. i would deffinately suggest getting a nokia...they make the best phone with the best quality.

                            I have a Nokia and i'm married with it. But this motorola seems to be very good Quad Banda EDGE and all at the same price than V180. Nice Phone.

                              I bought a V186 but still I can't activate wap service on it, even the sim card worked on my previous mobile phone. There is somebody who know how to fix the wap using the key board ? Please, help me because the Mobile Operator (Orange) in my country, still wasn't able to do it till now. THANK YOU!!!

                                I would like to point out that any reception problems and such, usally aren't the phone, but the service provider. If theres no reception, of course its like your talking to a wall!
                                This phone is excellent.

                                  This is my second phone. & I must say, it was horrible. I could not talk to my friends on this phone of mine because not only did it have static, it stopped working on me! Out of the blue this one day, my friends could not hear me on the other line. Now I'm getting a new phone or this fixed. I don't like Motorola all too much but my father picked out my phone. So I say, get another Motorola phone or just get another phone. Something besides this. =]

                                    I don't want to be a stick in the mud here, but this isnt the 180. It's the 186. The 180 didnt have edge and some other stuff. The 186 is an excellent phone, I have no complaints.

                                      I bought this phone three days ago 'coz I really wanted a Motorola. I ignored the bad comments but yesterday, the keyboard light stopped working at times. Sometimes it worked, sometimes it didn't. I have taken no risk and took it to the shop where I had the choice between a Panasonic and a Samsung. Because I've had many Pana's, I took the Samsung, just to see if it's better. Someday, maybe, I'll buy a Motorola again, but a more expensive model, these are of much better quality. For now, I doubt the reliability of the V180, I think you better buy the V620!

                                        I just got this phone (v186M (M==much music edition)). I have to say, I am super impressed. I got it for the plan it came with, and didn't expect all these features! I can watch videos, music, pictures, all with highquality for cell phone standards. I am disapointed in the storage size, but it has excellent reception, a good speaker, excellent features. I couldn't have asked for anything better for what I paid!
