    Very nice - have had it now for about 2 months. Original software (24R) was quite buggy, but the current firmware I have on it (6FR) is extremely stable, fast, and everything works.

    EXCELLENT RF - better (but not by a lot) than my Nok 6610, which is one of the benchmarks for RF quality. Blows the RAZR out of the water in this area.

    Good build quality - no complaints there.

    Needed to SEEM edit a few things to get it the way I wanted it, but I'm extremely satisfied.

    I wouldn't be surprised if Moto discontinued it because it makes the RAZR (aka V3) look like the b* stepchild that it is, when it comes to actual performance. Advantages include a better camera, EDGE (I get REAL performance very similar to a 2B ISDN connection), FAR better RF performance and a better formfactor, especially when you're actually USING (aka talking on) it. After all, if a phone doesn't work well as a PHONE - if you can't hold it comfortable and TALK ON IT, what good is it? How do you justify the V3 being more expensive when the V635 is just a better and more-full-featured unit? You don't - so you take the cheaper model out and shoot it so you don't kill your sales of the other one, especially when you just did a deal with a couple of big carriers to "push" the V3....

    I'm ecstatically happy with the V635. Its not perfect, but as far as phones go, its one of the best I've ever laid hands or ears on, and for the price IMHO its unbeatable.

          I am having some issues with call quality... the voice on the other lines goes up and down in volume constantly... I also noticed that the number of bars for the signal strength jumps around even though I am standing still!

            Hi,

            This phone is quite good, the MP3 player though slow to load is good and the quality of the sound it makes through the speakers and headphones is excellent.

            All the usual things on the phone are good, storage space, options, menu set up. Call sound is clear though other people complain reception is quiet from their end.

            Pic quality and the screen is very crisp and clear.

            Only real downsides to it are that it is a bit bulky and bluetooth is incredibly slow and misses about 80% of people who have bluetooth active. It will take about 2 mins to transfer a meg file across from a phone whereas on other phones it is about 20 seconds.

            This is the same with the USB to phone data cable. Very slow transfer speeds

            The ability to add a T-Disk is excellent as you can transfer files onto that and put that in the phone and saves a lot of time.

              Hello everyone im getting this phone next week and so far I have almost 150 mb of family guy episodes and I was wondering is it possible that i can put them on the moto v635 and then watch them? Please respond.

              P.S - Took a survey 8 out of 10 people say the battery life last long.

                  Please, please would anyone tell me if they have been having any problems with storing MMS files to the phone handset or memory? My V635 keeps freezing every time I try to store a MMS file received from other phones (file sizes are only about 25kbs or 60kbs) and I have over 5,000kbs free space!! Any help would be much appreciated! But otherwise, the phone is great.

                      Okay for unlimited video recording. I switched my storage device to the transflash memory card. then go to menu, multimedia, videos, then bring up the videos menu and go to video setup. when ur there switch the video lenght from MMS to Maximum and that should do it.it worked for me. hope this helps.

                          Purchased this phone in the USA 2 months ago. I was unable to download any songs to the MP3 player. After several conversations with Moto tech support - they said software should be refreshed and to send it to the National Service center - they sent it back unrepaired. Called Moto back and was told they could not fix because it was not a US phone (go figure - they make it). Under settings>phone status>other information when selecting MP3 ready it says "No". If anyone has this phone can tell me if theirs works and if it says the same thing. My computer recognizes and plays the songs on the transflash but the phone doesn't. Any help would really be appreciated.

Also i noticed when i was doing video recording to the phones memory it doesnt seem to be as clear as when i record it to the memory card, is this happening to anyone else?
