I think this phone is average. It has average battery life lasting about 5 days of moderate use. It is decently drop resistant surviving 4 feet drops onto concrete with only a few scratches. I would like to have a bigger screen and more advanced technological features though.

Had mine in 2001 and even then its specs were outdated.
The only thing that made this a must have for me were its tiny dimensions and light weight.
It fit into any pocket and even today it looks really stylish, luxurious and cool. It sure caught anyone's attention when I pulled it out - most couldn't believe it wasn't a toy because of its size. So everybody wanted to touch and open it. My physics teacher at that time commented on it: "Has James Bond forgotten his phone?" :)
The software wasn't especially user friendly; at that time nothing compared to the easy and logical Nokia menus and buttons. Although Motorola tried a "shortcut-button-function" that was customizable but it never felt handy.
The only thing high-tech were voice memos and dialing. Of course you had to record the commands first and there was only very limited memory for a handful of commands to be stored.
A good thing was the LED indicating messages and missed calls so you didn't have to flip it open. Again, in these days phones didn't pack a second screen!
All in all, I loved it for its look and hated it for its lacking ease-of-use and general low-tech feel.. and for the fact its display malfunctioned after 2 years.

This is my favourite Motorola Mobile phone. For those who like extras and camera, I would like to point out that each equipment is most suitable for its main purpose e.g. Canon Camera for photograpy, HP/Compaq laptop with GPRS facility for the net and Motorola V3690 for mobile connection. This product is indeed very reliable free of bugs and durable. I still keep it and I am sad that I cannot buy an extra "reserve" one.

Superb phone. Annoyingly simple though, but extremely reliable. Survived washing machine one time when it was two years. Amazing. Sadly it was stolen on vacation...

Small phone that never let me down so far. It is a phone, not a toy for feature adicts. Simple, puristic, a classic.
