Motorola MPx220 is slow & I mean slow. Snails pace comes to mind. I feel I am always waiting for something to work or happen on this phone. So fed up & can't wait to get my new phone next month, thinking about the Motorola SLVR L7, looks a good buy.

The display on this phone should have had a higher specification as it really lets it down & the only positive thing to advise potential buyers about is the Internet connection is good, not fast but good & it works which is quite something. This phone needs to move over for the newer phones in town as it has done a job but not as good as the upgraded & updated models that are available now.

I love my MPx220 that I got for a present 6 months ago. It is a lovely looking phone with loads of good feature & my friends have always envied it. Got it in silver which adds to the good looks, silver fits in & looks sleek. I love the camera & video, MP3 player is good, surfing is easy, Bluetooth very good & the MSN messages are fun & quick. I use it each & every day & I will be sad to see it go.
