Reviewer: Kerry - UK
Date: 5th Dec 2009

I bought the Motorola W375 about 2 & a half years ago. It's & okay phone, depending on what you want to use it for. It looks gorgeous (I have it in pink) but there are not many features. The battery life is quite good. The camera is not such a high quality & there is no video, there is not much memory room either. There are only three games that come with it but I find them rather boring. You can download more though. There are things like a timer, calendar, alarm though which are quite good. It is quite a good phone if all you want it for is calling & texting.

Overall it looks great (especially in pink! ) but there are not many apps.

I've had this phone since Christmas 2007 which makes it 20 months now & it's only recently I've started to experience real problems with it.

From the beginning I was annoyed by the fact that it deletes words entered in the dictionary when the phone is turned off & the dictionary (at least in Danish) is rather small. But later I've started having reboot problems as well as signal problems that I find frustrating. Understandable is it that the battery is dying rather quickly now when I text, I am talking 30 to 45 minutes. It does load up rather quickly & can be charged through your computer with the right cable (as my real charger stopped working months ago! ).

It's a disaster. My friend had one & it was horrible. In all honesty, I think that its worst to have one than one of those that had antennas phones that look like they've been struck by lightning, in fact I'd consider that an improvement. It was bright pink, I mean yeah it's great if you want to have a Barbie phone. The Orange one looks like someone threw up on it & the other colours speak for themselves. It has nothing on it, not even a video recorder. It's so boring, it sends people who can't see it asleep. The design is as dull as plain white paper. Oh & the price is so expensive, at least it is for the features, oops sorry what features.

I got this phone off a mate because I lost my last one which was a Sony K800i, brilliant phone, was like a little computer it was.

So to be honest, this new piece of rubbish is a bit of a downgrade (a bit!? , A lot! ). The camera's okay, but what's the point when the phone can only hold 10 photos? , I won't be bothering to use it.

I write in predictive text but every time you select create new message it goes on a default setting which means you have to change it back to predictive EVERY time you write a new message, I find that particularly annoying, also the phone has no dictionary so it takes me ages to write a text because I have to change settings every time I want to spell a word the phone doesn't know.

Oh, & there's no Bluetooth. I don't know how much my mate paid for this but I understand why she couldn't stand it.

So if you write in predictive text this phone is not for you at all, it's basically all looks & no function. I HATE IT. But I am stuck with it.

Hi. I am talking from Brazil. I just bought this W375 three days ago, my other option was the Nokia 2760, but the 2760's sound is horrible! The battery doesn't work how they say. I need to recharge it every night! & I just was thinking. What happened? How can they make a like this! I believe that it is a error a big error! Don't buy this phone. This is what I think.

I have owned such a list of phones in my life that I can't even count (actually I can, it's about 35) that when I was given this by a friends parent I fell in love with it. I am a male by the way, & the phone is pink, but who care. I love it! I have two phones all the time & my other is the camera MP3 Bluetooth all of that, now this is just my backup. It's a little complicated with selecting everything with the soft key instead of the centre button but is all good really. Battery life is fine.

Well I got the phone a couple of months ago & it was good & now I find it kind of frustrating not having Bluetooth or video etc. But if you're the type of person who wants every feature on your phone then don't buy it, but when you think about mobile phones all there for is to make calls on & send texts so I admit it is a rubbish phone but I can live with it & also it is very simple to use on the phone & on the computer. For someone who doesn't want everything on their phone buy this.

This phone is awesome! Even though some features are not there like Bluetooth, it is a pretty decent phone. The style is very nice on the outside & the inside. People say that the texting is slow, but it really isn't. I would definitely recommend this phone to everyone.

This phone is very nice & has very nice applications in it.

Reviewer: Chris - Gloucester, UK
Date: 4th Dec 2008

The design is pretty good, the features are easy to get up & use but the only thing wrong with the usability is to text to say for c on a normal phone you would press button 2 three times, but on this phone you press it once it took me about 3 months to get used to it.

Reviewer: Daniel Attfield - Leigh On Sea, UK
Date: 29th Nov 2008

I got this phone last Christmas because I thought it was going to be really good, I WAS WRONG! This phone has no memory & it doesn't have Bluetooth & the camera is quite bad because it is dark & a bit blurry however the only good points about it are that it doesn't break if you drop it once because I must of dropped it about 8 times & its only got a couple of scratches on it also the battery lasts for about a week before you have to charge it up again.

If you want a rubbish phone just for keeping in contact you should get this phone but if you want a good phone with loads of memory & Bluetooth stop reading this review & go & get a better phone.

Worst phone ever! I'd give it away if I could afford a new one. Horrible texting (the memory isn't fast enough to keep up with what your typing) & some of the features are ridiculous. It's nay on impossible to change or adjust the time or date. Do yourself a favour & buy something else.

Reviewer: Rachel Louise - Hull, UK
Date: 13th Oct 2008

It looks great. I have it in pink. I love it for its look & shape. It's easy to hold & quite loud.

However, it has no features & is terrible. The memory is awful. One of the worse phones I have ever had. I wouldn't recommend anyone young buying it if you want to listen to music.

It does however have the radio which may be great by looking at it but the signal is always terrible.

It is quite easy to use, input contacts & send messages.

I wouldn't recommend this phone to anyone who wanted to store pictures or music.

It is good for calls & texts though.

The pink version looks great & stands out.

Plus Points. Light; nice pink colour, don't need to worry about locking the keypad.

Negative Points. Battery life is awful (I bought it 9 months ago & the battery life has dropped from 1 week to 2 days even if it doesn't ring), predictive text is not intuitive & cover for USB port is nice to keep dirt out but fiddly to open.

Nice phone, looks really good & decent made.

Pro, nice design, many features, good to handle, well in use for frequent sms, quite decent (let it drop 2 x on the street, no problem), never let me down.

Cons, a bit slow in starting up, big, menu is complicated.

In all a nice design phone for acceptable price.

Reviewer: Rosie - UK
Date: 29th Jun 2008

I've had this phone for over a year now, & it is easy to use & find your way around, though the central button can be a bit annoying as it isn't used for selection, it's more like a right click on a mouse & brings up a new set of options rather than opening the application. Texting is more or less easy, but it's about the only way you can communicate with anyone, as the phone does not have blue tooth or infra-red. Sending pictures to other phones is a very complicated affair & takes ages! Also, it is too easy to press the button to connect to the Internet thing, & that costs quite a lot on my tariff. The phone book is also really small. I think I have about 30 numbers & it is full. Also the battery life is rubbish, you can only have it open for about half & hour before it dies after a full charge, & only about two days with it closed. Finally, the camera is really bad, the resolution is awful, & really grainy once you put it on the computer. Some of the effects are quite fun, but are not really exciting. This phone is best for children for their first, but apart from that it is really basic, & not that great.

INoticed loads of people having problems with the drivers! Here's some assistance. If your computer is Windows 2000 or higher then you CANNOT use the USB phone charging feature. BUT you CAN still transfer photos & sounds with the USB. Bear with me!

For those of you that DO have the right system requirements (under Windows 2000), you can download the drivers required from the Motorola Global UK Help site or the Motorola site & go to drivers info. You may need both.

Those of us on Windows 2000 or higher, you'll have to charge it using the normal charge cable. I tried for hours to get it to work as a charging cable for Vista but it was time wasted. However, when you want to transfer photos plug in the USB to the phone & computer, on your phone screen it will say: 'Use phone as a USB storage device? Click YES on the phone screen (the book & instructions say click no, don't do this if you are on Windows 2000 or higher, you must click Yes).

In the start menu go to Computer. You'll find the USB device on there so double click on it. (It'll be under Devices with Removable Storage but you should see it straight away). It opens two folders, Sounds & Pictures. If you want to transfer pictures go to the pictures file & copy & paste the picture as you would with any other USB device. You can put it straight onto your computer, or transfer photos or sounds from your computer to your phone by pasting them into the phone files.

I hope this helps some of you!

It is a really good phone. It is a good phone but the memory is bad, you can hold about 15 pictures or 4 MP3 ringtones that's it but other than that it is a wonderful phone.

Reviewer: Old Blue - Jersey, UK
Date: 3rd May 2008

Bought one today, so just first impressions. Neat & compact, & as some have said already It's a mobile telephone. That's all my adult wife wants it for occasional use as a PAYG telephone while she's out (instead of living with it permanently attached to her ear, texting constantly & exchanging pictures with school friends). If you want more capability (pointless ringtones, hours of music, dozens of quality photographs) buy something bigger & better (or an iPod & camera) instead of twittering.

Big advantage for us is that it's tri band, so it will also work in the USA where we spend a lot of time. Lack of Bluetooth & other capabilities are clearly described on websites, in shops & on the box. They weren't needed by her anyway, as my quad-band RAZR V3i has all that.

So, It's a small, neat, easily set-up mobile phone, which I think is was it was intended to be. One day we might discover a need to text (instead of talking to people) but by then we'll probably have arthritic fingers. The rest of it (like ringtones & music) is for the kiddies. Tomorrow I'll have another attempt at getting USB connection to do something, it was instantaneous & easy with my RAZR, but the W375 doesn't seem to be intended for that.

DO NOT BUY! I bought this phone a year ago & it is awful. It has broken twice & takes about a year to load up! It also has about three hours battery only when you have owned it for a while (this is after it is charged up) I am now replacing it but if you are think of buying it don't waste your money! The camera is OK but there are hardly any other features. I don't think it was worth my money! Definitely buy something better!

Let me tell you folks! This phone is a catastrophe. It's awful! It has a mind of its own!

To start with it just randomly goes to fully charged to dead! I would make a simple trip to walmart & find myself sitting in the game room stealing walmarts electricity, charging my phone! I hate this phone! How do they call it wireless if you have to leave it in the wall jack 24 7? Grrrrr! I am just pre warning you. Don't get unless you're always going to be by a wall jack or leave it off! LOL.

Reviewer: Paul - Wakefield, UK

Pros. Moderately stylish budget phone

Cons. Worst thing about it is the battery life, even after a full discharge & recharge cycle the battery only ever lasted a max of 48hrs on standby. Make or receive a few calls, & it needs to be recharged every night. Not enough memory for use as an MP3 player, or taking more than a handful of pictures. Battery cover falls off very easily.

Reviewer: Nio - Bangkok, Thailand

After just dropping my Nokia E61i & knocking the display, I decided using expensive phones in my job is just not worth it. I also own a new IPHONE & after dropping the Nokia E61i I went looking for a phone with 2 purposes.

First it needed to be a clamshell to fit in my pocket. Second, it would be used for phone & text messaging only & the phone had to have enough volume to hear it in noisy areas. Get a new IPOD Nano if you want a serious MP3 Player!

For these two purposes I think it does an excellent job. For a regular mobile phone to store & call your contacts, this does just fine & has excellent sound quality & volume.

Granted people, this is a cheap costing phone & you think from all the people complaining though they would get IPHONE functionality & features at this price. Wrong!

But you get a good daily user phone that is very clear & loud & will fit in your pocket. If this thing falls & breaks I won't shed one tear. Just go get another.

The IPHONE will stay at home unless I go somewhere that I won't be tempted to drop it due to being busy with work. I think I would cry if I dropped my IPHONE.

Bottom line is if you need a solid mobile for daily calls & text, this has clear & loud volume. This phone can store all my contacts, speed dial, & phone features that you can use. I would not recommend this for MP3 or multimedia.

As a daily use phone for calls, I would highly recommend it because of the volume & sound clarity.

Hmm, a few months into using this phone & I am already on the lookout for another, which is hardly economical.

I am not the kind of person who changes her phone with the weather, & unlike some of the reviewers here I did my research before buying. Amazingly enough, the spec said that it didn't have MP3, Bluetooth & whatnot. (Surprising what you learn if you bother to look, isn't it? )

Anyway, the point is that I wanted a phone just for texting & calling internationally.

I can credit the speakerphone with being clear & easy to use. Texting, however, is a nightmare. It takes forever to send a simple message. T9 is a total pain, the screen can't keep up with the input, neither does it register input properly. Also, the, do you want to do this? Messages every time you try to do something within that menu are irritating.

The typeface that Motorola uses looks teenage & useless picture messages, games & avatars waste memory, open the flip & the screen looks like a kid's phone.

I am not buying another Motorola. I went from a Sony Ericsson to Motorola because I wanted a reasonably priced clamshell & am regretting it. I miss not being able to screen calls without opening the flip, that little window on the front of the phone is really handy, especially on the move. Oh well, lesson learned.

Reviewer: Alex - London, UK

This phone is cheap & looks smart, but overall I wouldnt recommend it.

Problems are.

- It takes an AGE to turn on & off.
- The USB charging cable didn't work from my PC so have to use mains.
- When charging, it automatically switches to loud mode. If in the office & you forget about this it can be embarrassing.
- The key response time has a lag, this is a major usability issue. When making fast selections & writing SMS it can get lagged behind what you are pressing. Very annoying.
- The menu organisation is not intuitive. For example, I never know where to go to change the phone wallpaper or ringtone.
- The built in camera is as good as useless, quality wise.
- It's easy to accidentally lower the ring volume using the side keys so when it rings you can't hear it.
- The back cover is barely held on by a small clip & keeps coming off in my pocket.
- Button functions have no consistency. Sometimes the central button is to select or OK, sometimes it's to view options.
- The nav wheel is too small so I always select the wrong option.
- When writing SMS, it took me ages to figure out how to type '0' as its on the 1 key rather than the 0 key for no reason!

I am a usability consultant so I know this could be a lot easier to use!

OK so I got the phone a week ago was very excited to be getting it. I am so disappointed in the storage I have added 3 pictures from my partners phone into my additional storage & now I can't add more cause I don't have enough room, that's 3 pictures I have on my phone & they aren't massive pictures! As for the USB computer transfer thing what a waste of time I plugged it in & it showed as working but the pictures I put to transfer never worked so it's hard to work it all out I thought I was doing it right dragged pictures to the area it showed on their website. It's a lovely phone basic & looks great messages are easy but no fancy pictures to add on like Nokia etc do I am a little disappointed by it just mainly this lack of storage!

Reviewer: Eduardo - Argentina

I am satisfied with the phone, basic features but I do not need more, but the bad point is the battery life.

Its battery life is very short & far away from Motorola specifications. I had bought 3 phones for my wife, my kid & me, I made a recycle of all 3 batteries, full empty full charge & in standby mode, one reaches 5 days (about 120 Hs), the second 3 days (about 72 Hs), & the last only one day (about 32 Hs), very far away from the 250 hours from Motorola specifications.

I think this phone is very stylish but I think it would be better if it had Bluetooth MP3 player voice recorder & able to get real ringtones. But it is easy to use for phone calls & & massaging & pretty cheap for $99 but my old pretty & pink phone had more features then what this one has & it was the same price $99 but as I say it is easy to use if you only won't it for calling & texting & if you do get it get pink it rocks.

I have never reviewed anything online in my life, but, after months of complete frustration with this phone, I had to vent somewhere. The W375 was given to me as a gift, & at first I thought pretty design, clear & simple to use & more features than my old & rubbish phone great. How wrong I was.

When I first tried to compose a text message, I was horrified. The screen takes so long to catch up with your typing you'll be into the next word before its finished copying up the first. If you're a prolific texter, do not buy this model. I have hundreds of unused free text messages every month, messages I can't even be bothered to write because of the hassle of typing. The keypad is clunky, it is easy to press the wrong key. This seems to be a common problem.

The camera, as reported by others, is pretty good. However, sending & receiving picture messages seems to be something the phone dislikes. Some mayflies have a chance of outliving the battery life on this model, & the choice of ringtones is painful. The free memory is also a joke, with a proportion being taken up by non removable games & rubbish animated picture messages.

I had a look at the other reviews here, & they are pretty mixed, making me wonder if I am missing something. My advice though, is that if you want to keep your sanity, get another type of phone. Motorola are obviously heavily involved with the manufacturers of antipsychotics.

This is the best basic model phone. I got this phone for 3000 Rs, which is equal to 75 dollars.

Good FM radio & Good VGA Camera.

If you compare this phone with other phones in the Market then with this quality & features. This is the best model.

With the same features you have many models which are at least 25 dollars more.

If you looking for a basic model with all Features then this is your mobile.

Of course. You get things for what you pay.

Reviewer: Hugh - Manatee, UK

I picked this up for £25 & for the money, it's a great deal.

It has no Bluetooth, but it does have a USB interface (the charger also goes into the same mini-USB port on the phone) so you can upload the few photos your phone can store to your PC regularly to free up space, it only takes seconds.

While connected to your computer, you can transfer your favorite images (even gif animations up to 100kb) & apply them as your wallpaper &/or screen saver, the results are far more impressive than using photos you have taken on the camera, with strong, bright colours that show off the screen to it's full potential. & you can also transfer MP3 files from your PC to the phone to use as ringtones. The phone's speaker is pretty powerful & realtones you transfer yourself sounds really good as ringtones. Obviously with only 500kb of memory to play with, you'll need to keep the file size as tiny as you can for these, so use a sound editor to cut the song down to the best 20-30 seconds & save it as a mono 40kbps MP3 (higher bitrates won't sound any better). Using that method, you can have 3 or 4 MP3 ringtones on there at once (so long as you're not using any memory for anything else! )

That's the biggest issue with this handset - the tiny memory. The games are pretty poor & it's a shame you can't lose these (& some of the pre-loaded images) to free up much needed space. You can charge your phone by using the supplied USB lead, but you need to go to the Motorola website to get the driver to make the USB charge work. Why they couldn't include it on a disk or even on the phone's internal memory I don't really know. Other phones don't need drivers to charge through the USB, which means they can plug in & charge to any PC if they don't have their charger with them. With the W375 if you want to charge away from your home PC, you'll have to ask permission to install the driver to get it charging & it's not a quick & easy job.

There are some comments about this handset being slow, in text entry mode it can seem to be, but if you keep pressing buttons quickly the display does catch up, it doesn't lose any characters as you're typing.

For call quality, the phone is superb. It's pretty easy to use. It has GPRS for Internet, although the browser is pretty old & basic & doesn't do Java or frames, it's handy to be able to check emails, travel info, maps & directions when you're on the move.

Do NOT buy this phone for MP3 playback, or to take lots of high resolution photos. The memory is tiny, non-expandable & won't allow for this. & the camera is only VGA quality.

But I have a decent camera, & a decent MP3 player, so while some extra storage space would be nice, for £25 I really can't complain. My last phone was a Samsung X640, cost £80 & didn't do as much as the W375.

This phone is quite good. But if you are looking for a phone that will impress your mates this isn't the phone for you. It is annoying that it doesn't have Bluetooth but it's good for someone who just wants a phone for calling or texting.

I would recommend this phone for people who are not that bothered with the latest technology.

Easy little phone, texting is fine, but it's incredibly annoying that I cannot download music! I still go to school & I like listening to music, but because the memory is so small, you can't out any on, I suppose you do have the radio, & that's good too.

I recommend this phone to those people who use it for a phone, not a music device. Design is great. Pink!

It looks great & does everything I want it to do & more such as camera & FM radio!

People complaining that there is no MP3 should get a life, what do you expect, not every phone has to have an MP3 player.

Phones need to be simple & I think this phone is. I can't wait to buy it in a few days & look forward to using it

The only downside I have found is that when you text fast, or press the keys very quickly, it can sometimes lag a little, but apart from that, it's great!

This is a really nice phone with a great design. I find no problems with taking pictures, texting or the battery life. This phone does all of that really well & for people complaining about not being able to put 1000 songs on a phone, buy an iPod (that's what there for). I have already downloaded several ringtones & have had no problems. I was actually surprised with the clarity of the pictures, even though it can't hold a ton, it's still really useful. I would definitely recommend buying this phone if you're thinking about it.

This has got to be the best phone I have ever had. It is the most sleek phone. I got mine at a bargain price (£25) & instantly loved it the first time I turned it on. It has not got any toys (no Bluetooth, video, a megapixel camera), but what do you expect. If you want to listen to music buy an iPod or if you want to take pictures buy a camera, it makes sense! The camera is perfectly adequate & whoever said it was hard to text with was completely wrong. I love this phone & I am glad I gave my Nokia 6230 away because I love this phone. If you want a phone suitable for anybody of any age buy this. Even if you like your phone, buy this anyway. It is so good!

Reviewer: Foz - UK

I was looking for some constructive reviews to help me choose a new phone, things like, is it reliable? & how easy is it to use. Most of what I've found here is a whinge at what this phone hasn't got. I am just looking for a phone to make phone calls on, texting is great, anything else is a Brucie Bonus & if I were looking for something that is an MP3 player, video camera, cooking utensil & teleportation device, I would look at a model with those features, which, incidentally, I would expect to pay a lot more for.

I am not really hot up on these things, but when Motorola's marketing splurge says MP3 Ringtones, it means MP3 ringtones, not polyphonic ringtones, not monophonic ringtones & certainly not a repository for your music collection. MP3 Ringtones, you know those short loops of music that have been compressed like mad that come with the phone? They are not three of four minute tracks from an album at max quality.

I like the way you have a nice little blue light on the front of the phone when you have an sms waiting, it's actually rather dashing. When I use this phone I am bored. Sending a sms on this phone is so fiddly & slow! The display quality is of low calibre & so ordinary, it's like watching paint dry. This phone is not for the average person.

Right then, here's the deal. I've noticed from earlier posts that people are complaining over the lack of features, MP3 player, camera etc. Well, if you want an MP3 player, buy an iPod. If you want a camera, buy a digital camera. Simple! Also people are complaining about the reason they bought it not being justified by the product. Well, how's about you open your eyes, if it doesn't say Bluetooth, guess what, it doesn't have Bluetooth. If it doesn't say video, it doesn't have video. How obvious, there's one person who bought it for the MP3 player, what? Why do that, seriously? Also, this is a phone, people, a phone, the clue is in the name. Does your home phone have a video camera? No. Does your home phone have a MP3 player? No. These things which 'make' a phone are actually just add-ons, has no-one noticed? It really annoys me how people bad-mouth a PHONE for not having Bluetooth.

This beautiful phone cuts down on price by removing useless features found in other phones. If you want a phone with a good camera, music player & Bluetooth, look somewhere else. If you want to make calls & text, then you can't get much better than this, especially not at just £30. I found the texting interface to be slightly more limiting than my previous phone, but still quite easy to use for speedy texting, & the sleek design is the envy of all my friends. What other £30 model can say that?

It looks nice till you open it. I only wanted it for the MP3 use but good luck trying, the memory on this thing is a joke not enough memory to get one ringtone (that's after deleting everything I could to get more space) also whatever memory it had has been taken by the thousands of default pictures (there's a picture of some lady's feet? ) which you can't delete. Also the speaker phone is clear for you but whoever you are talking to can pretty much only hear static. If you want a phone to just get & receive calls & SMS it'll do but if you want all the fun things get another phone because this things a piece of rubbish I have only had it for 2 days but I am going to buy another phone. I tried to give it to my workmate for free n they didn't even want it. Shame.

Got it two days ago, not the most qualified person to enter a close & final review, buy at least, here's my two cents. Features: At least this mobile is quite cheap in Argentina compared to others with similar features, so come on. Don`t expect much more than this. OK with tiny memory, if a phone carries a camera & stores pictures & audio files memory should be at least 100 % bigger. I guess we all agree that this set is beautifully designed. My only complaint is that screen comes almost totally pale when using the phone outdoors on a sunny day. One said that processor is slow. It Is! Memory almost empty & this device takes 30 seconds to be ready for use when turning on. But anyway, my latest mobile phone was a Nokia 1100, so I love my Moto.

Nice looking clamshell, but doesn't please the eye when open (may be the reason why I didn't find open images on the Internet before I buy). Memory is too low, 1.5, you can only take 10 pictures from the camera (640x480) & also the user memory is only 500 KB. (Seems like old days of PC 8086 machines).

Battery Backup is for only one day on average use (7 / 8 calls each of 5 min) & not more than 4 days without any use at all. The cost is more as compared to the features it offer. A great loss!

Oh well. First when I got this I wanted to put MP3 song on it, short one because memory is small. Don't know why they make so small memory. Can't anybody edit it to be bigger memory? Anyway I connect it to my PC using USB port & it said device not found. But when I read the packages & direction then I understand.
How to connect USB
- First flip open your hp. Connect to the PC using the USB port.
- Then made it in idle mode when the hp say do you want to put it in idle mode.
- When it say device not found. Ignore it.
- Go to window explore & you will see MS_DEVICE.
- Voila! You can use it :).

Pic though it can't support JPEG format & hp dun need big size pic so resize the pic you wanted to put in & in format GIF. that works. Actually this phone is for my mum. I want my mum to have a stylish phone & this one is cheaper than any & because she doesn't use the features much. This looks like a perfect one for her. Put my niece & nephew pic as wallpaper & a MP3 short song & voila! Perfect for mum. If you want to change song delete the old & add the new.

- Can flip open to answer & & flip off to end call
- Got speed dial
- Stylish & cheap

Well you get what you buy. It's affordable & so the features are so-so. But hoped it was pink. Here only got black & silver. So I bought it black.

Anyway I love features myself use Sony Ericsson W850i. Nice OK, first was a bit awkward because I always bought Nokia before but always got stolen. Thus I bought this Sony Ericsson & I am used to it now. MP3 is superb. But camera is not that good for it doesn't have autofocus. But I am cool!

I wouldnt recommened this for adults who are looking for a high end phone or even a phone that is fast & high tech as this dosnt come close, but for kids, you just can't go wrong, this should be all any kid should need from a phone. Don't waste £100 on a phone they will ruin in 4 or 5 months, £35 for this for boy or girl as it comes in black & silver too is more than perfect.

Nice phone at first sight. Fashion look, Camera, Radio, etc. I bought mine really cheap (40 Euro promo). Like other Motorola phones this is very slow too. I mean the all the menus & writing text. The camera is far from quality & has no video function. The memory is only 1, 5MB & the user is able to use only about 400KB for storing files (4-5 photos with max quality). The Battery life is less than half of the Motorola specifications. They say it works more than 10 days in stand by mode but mine works only about 4 days with maximum network signal level which is really not good. I use Sony Ericsson K300 which works between 7 & 10 days in stand by mode. The keyboard is not very comfortable but looks nice.

Some handy functions are missing. I couldn't make it to work with WAP (may be the problem is in me but I used auto settings from my mobile company & it does not work again).

Finally I can say that Motorola W375 is good mobile phone for the money I gave for it. But without this promotion it costs about 90 Euro which means it is not good phone for its cost.

Great looks, very stylish but, the features. In this day & age, how can a phone of this calibre (esp. The latest release from Motorola) not have video capabilities. Apparently it has MP3 capabilities but, oops! It does not have enough space for even one full track, even worse no way of adding a memory card (which I think should now become a standard on new phone because memory is the word now, I mean, information & file sharing is big nowadays & you cannot be caught not having enough of it).

Other features are not too shabby but compared to phones in the market today. Then a problem with battery life, I thought I'd return the phone to where I bought it but I read some other reviews & realised that I am not alone. It's in the 'nature' of this phone's battery to give so soon. Is it just me or is the WAP browser is slow? I have used a V220 before & I don't see much difference between these two phones (w375 & v220). Let's see, radio, better pictures (but not good) & that's about it. Well, the pricing was close to reasonable I'd say.

I got this phone on Virgin PAYG & it's the worst phone I've had. It has a nasty habit of switching itself off. This has the nasty habit of also changing my MMS settings so I cannot send MMS messages anymore. It is very slow. Loading pictures etc takes forever. Try taking & sending a MMS message is a pain to do. The internal memory is way too small. It is also VERY picky about which ringtones codec's it will play. So for my 1st clamshell phone, NOT at all good. I will upgrade to the Sony Ericsson Z610i on 3 I think.

I got this phone unlocked from eBay. The looks are very stylish but the phone is a lot bigger than my old flip. The camera is superb quality & better than my friends L6. You can send the pictures via text but the phone really needs Bluetooth. The only problem is the PC connectivity, it will connect but nothing will synchronise or the phone will display 'unsupported data format' what does that mean? I am stuck with the preloaded music.

If you were like me & are thinking of changing a very old basic phone for a best of modern day basics phone this is the phone for you.

Reviewer: Rosa - UK

My first impressions of the W375 were excellent. The design borrows from the iconic RAZR, & this phone is sleek, stylish & tactile.

One of the best features of this phone is its bargain price. Understandably, the quality of the materials used is a little lower than Motorola's more expensive models, but the W375 feels solid & well-made. Chunkier than the RAZR, this phone feels nicely balanced in the hand. There's no exterior screen as such, but in the central, glossy panel there are icons that light up for an incoming call, a text message, or to indicate that the battery is low. For me, this is perfectly adequate, & I like the uncluttered, minimal look.

The phone flips open with a smooth action. Inside, the screen is very bright & colourful, although images are not particularly sharp. The keypad is well laid out & spacious, but the keys were a little too firm for my liking, & I found that this did not make texting as smooth as I would have wished.

Calls are clear & there's a good range of volume settings, which can easily be adjusted in-call using the two soft buttons at the side of the handset. Sending text messages is not such a pleasant experience, unfortunately when combined with the unresponsive keypad is sure to frustrate frequent texters.

The user interface is straightforward & easy to navigate, & you can customise the home screen to make your favourite features easily accessible. It's a shame, then, that the phone's slowness continues throughout the menu system. Whilst browsing photos, each image takes an age to load. Games too are affected by the lack of speed, though the games themselves are highly addictive. I like the inclusion of animated menu icons & screensavers, but the fact that they look as though they are moving in slow-motion reduces their appeal. It's a matter of personal preference, but I find that the slowness of the user interface mars the phone's usability.

As well as an FM radio, the phone comes equipped with a camera - great to see in a phone of this price. The quality is only VGA, but I found this fine for taking snaps. There are even some special effects to play around with, including negative, embossing & sepia.

Connecting to a PC is simple, & doesn't involve any software or drivers. Simply connect the phone to your PC using the supplied USB cable, making sure that the phone is OPEN. As soon as you plug it in, a message will appear on the phone's screen asking if you would like the phone to go into storage mode. Confirm this by pressing the key on the phone as you are prompted. After a little thinking time, the phone will tell you that it is in storage mode & that normal phone functions will not work. Now, the phone should show up as a portable storage device on your computer, & you can drag & drop files to & from it as you would any other storage device.

Overall, your opinion of the W375 will depend on what you want from a mobile phone. If you're after a text machine or an entertainment centre with all the latest gadgets, then you will be disappointed. If, however, you would like a reasonably-priced flip phone with good basic functions plus a few fun features to keep you amused, & are prepared to look beyond the phone's biggest flaw - its slowness - then you might just find what you're looking for wrapped up in the fashionable form of the W375.

However, the features let it down, the awful VGA camera is poor & it has NO Bluetooth (WHY? ), also, no MP3 player. As for usability, all Motorola's are backwardly designed to every other phone company. Everything is put into places you would look in last, the menu key is irritating & the menu layout is poor. If you actually plan to use your phone DO NOT BUY THIS ONE!

I have had this phone for a little over a month & everyday it seems like something new goes wrong with it! Last week the battery cover continued to fall off, again & again! It was very irritating! All the functions on this phone work VERY slowly. If you are trying to get to the menu where to can text message, you hit one button, wait 3 seconds for the screen to pop up, hit another button, wait more seconds. It is VERY ANNOYING how slow this phone works. I have always had Samsungs & this is my first Motorola, & my last! Last night the phone was warning me of a low battery, I plugged it in for the night. When I unplugged it this morning the phone still had a low charge, & the charge light was not lighting up on the face of the phone. The phone did not charge the entire night! There is no T9 typing function on this phone & you cannot add your own words/names to the phones memory, you are constantly typing people names because your phone will NEVER recognize them! I don't have much to say about this phone other than it is nice looking, trendy, & flashy. The phone however is not worth having. I just don't want other people to invest in this phone like I did & not like it.

Reviewer: James - London, UK

At a first glance the Motorola seems to me a half decent phone. I mean, camera, USB, headset, 2 displays. Wrong. Camera is pointless as at the high-resolution before you need to download them via the USB connection which works, but took a long time to get it to. The headset is half decent but without the memory on the phone you cannot listen to any songs. The outside screen doesn't even show whose calling, it simply tells you if it's charging, if you have a text or a call.

By far the worst thing about the entire phone is texting. The buttons are not easy to get use to, & the phone simply cannot keep up with me texting. I write a text out & look at the screen & it has half done it with multiple errors.

Bad phone for texting, bad phone for using, bad phone.

Reviewer: Josh - Brisbane, Australia

From a younger person's point:

The Motorola w375 looks great although the functions aren't that great.

The games are quite poor but highly addictive.

It surprises me that you have to go into settings to make the camera perform at the high-resolution, shouldn't it be preset to look good?

Textings fairly easy, although you have to keep changing the settings to do capitals & punctuation.

Whenever I try to connect it to the computer it says you do not have the software needed to use this USB device. I mean, WTF.

All I have to say about this phone is, they were probably drunk when designing the features.

OK, so I did not want an amazing camera on my phone, I have a digital camera, but the quality is rubbish. It said it was VGA, but I had a better quality VGA camera on a phone 2 years ago!

Sound quality of the ringtones is cheap also.

My friend has a RAZR & it has pretty much the same tones as hers, but they sound totally rubbish in comparison.

I found it useful to be able to link to my PC & upload sounds & pictures I wanted from my PC & the Internet. If all you really want is a cheap phone then it does what it says on the box. If I wanted a camera, a music player etc then I would buy a D-SLR & an Ipod.

I love this phone.

As a moderate texter & even more moderate call maker, this phone does everything I want it to.

Sure, the input of text massages can be a bit slower than other phones but speed is not the be-all & end-all of text messaging. Also, there is no Bluetooth or infra-red which does not worry me at all.

I bought this phone in Thailand, put my sim card in it & I was sending text messages & making phone calls immediately.

This is a perfect phone for me as I am only using it for texting & calling. Why would I need other features that I'd not use?

I recommend this phone to anyone that wants a basic mobile that is light, fancy-looking & easy to use.

So long I like the phone looks/design & that I can (at least) have decent calls with it, easy to navigate unless you have big hands, I recommend this phone, because I just barely can handle the keys & I think my hands are average size.

Regarding the connectivity, I am very disappointed, it just connects as an USB Drive, & that ONLY if when you are connecting the phone you have it OPENED & select QUICKLY the option in the display. I used it to upload a nice wallpaper (the Starry Night, Van Gogh) & a non-stupid ringtone (Classic-Q3L).

So far no way to upload/download you contacts even when Motorola clearly states that 'Motorola Mobile PhoneTools 5' is the software to be used, that version doesn't even exists!

Too bad, because I have a regular size list of contacts which I wanted to synchronize, & now there's no way I can have them on the W375 without wasting DAYS typing them in.

I bought this phone today because I didn't want to wait for it to get unlocked somewhere else, me being a desperate teenager wanting to text friends.

Looks very sleek, good design. If I were to be picky I'd say the flip was a little harder to get open than expected, then again it would probably loosen up over time.

I haven't checked out all the features yet, the texting is very slow, not a problem if you're not a quick typer. I found using T9 texting is quicker than standard typing (due to the lagging on the phone) & the Motorola has a clever way of remembering which words you use more so it's easier & quicker to type your messages.

I like the lights on the front to show when you have a text message/incoming call/charging battery, I think that's handy because it means you don't have to keep checking if you have something new.

On both sides of the phone there is rubber flaps, one to which your headphones go into, & the other, your charger. I find these a pain, but maybe I am fussy.

Inside the phone there is a shortcut to texting & WAP, which I found useful.

The phone is fairy light & reasonably sized, could be a little less lengthier though, but sleek, thin design.

Overall this phone isn't what I wanted, as I use texting more than anything, but if you're looking for a cheap phone to call or text when needed (& not as regular as me), the Motorola W375 is a good choice.

Downside is can't find the software needed, it comes with a USB cable but windows XP does not recognise it. Manual says download the software from their site, but it's not there. (Other forums state having the same problem) anyone found the software/drivers needed for this phone?

This handset is nice, but regarding length it's long. It should contain memory card & Bluetooth. Still GPRS service is not working.

Seduced by its looks, but on closer inspection it's not as slick as first thought. (I went for the clam shell design to avoid accidental key strokes whilst in pocket, something I got a lot of with Motorola L6 when I forgot keypad lock.)

No software available to manage contacts, etc, on PC. Motorola advise 'no plans' to provide any, so transferring from previous phone was more labour intensive than necessary.

Features are basically same as the superior L6, but with some annoying niggles: many 'select' functions are swapped from left to right key, & vice versa; keys are large, but need more brute force; cannot silence 'switched on' intro sound. All minor stuff, but sufficient for me to regret purchasing.

Don't buy, find something more user friendly for the price.

I am reverting back to my L6 (& learning to set keypad lock). Any offers for a redundant W375?

It's an okay phone but there aren't any decent things on it like Bluetooth. But it looks really nice.

The best looking phone, for many of us who don't have so much money. It doesn't matter it's not excellent in what concerns other features, it suits me. Loving it, & I only have it for 5 hours. By the way, mine is pink!

Can someone explain to me how to download my pics to my PC. Have a USB cable but my PC doesn't react. Phone didn't come with any software? THANKS!

Yep, it looks good & works as a phone (! ) BUT BEWARE - you try & hook it up to a PC to transfer any photos you have taken - forget it.

Yeah, the manual says you can do it by connecting the supplied USB cable but XP won't have anything to do with it & Virgin & Motorola have been no help what so ever.

Not a bad looking phone & the keys are almost dust proof which helps. But the battery life is very poor & takes a long time to recharge if you make lots of calls this is one to miss as it will let you down.

Well designed phone. Do not buy if you are looking to use it for anymore than a general phone to send a couple of texts & receive a couple of phone calls each day.

Downsides: the battery life is NOT over 250 hour's standby, but lasts about 36 hours (don't know how Motorola got to that decision). If you use the phone to text, that is reduced to about 24 hours. If you use it to make a couple of phone calls each day (i.e. 10 lasting 2 mins each), the battery life is cut to about 12 hours.

Also, if you are looking for a phone that's quick at loading, avoid this one. It is extremely slow especially when taking pictures & receiving them through text messages.

The phone's camera, for a VGA, also is not that good - clarity & grain is terrible.

I think it's a brilliant phone but it should have Bluetooth, but it's better than most phones & it on costs around £60, that's very cheap for what the phone is.

Well I respect Motorola mobiles but I only get flip phones. I had my old mobile Motorola T278i I think & it worked wonders it cost 180 quid at the time but it lasted 3 years the battery still works in good situation. It just mucked up would connect right but was worth the money. I was looking for a mobile didn't want to spend so much because there's too much condition. I bought this mobile today & well it's worth it because you get your money worth you get a cam with it & fair enough it isn't that good but it will do. The colour on the phone is impressive. Everything about it is impressive for a basic phone. The only downside is the memory but I still find it holds well. It looks great too!

I have this phone for 2 days & I like it it's a pretty decent phone I had a few Phones already. I had some Nokias 3210 3330 3650 8310 6820 7650, a Telit GM 711 (my first phone), a Siemens C25 & a Panasonic VS3 (my last phone). Now I have the W375 because I broke my Panasonic screen was too lazy to send it to repair, so, I brought this one.

This phone is a good deal. It's an easy to use phone with all the basics. Has radio, a great sound quality & a good design. It's a very basic phone so don't expect much. its easy to connect to the PC (mini USB) & you can charge it directly with the PC so no need to carry around the recharger (I haven't tried this feature yet just read it on the manual) but, the lack of memory (500kb for user data & the other 1000kd to games sms MMS etc) the poor camera & the fact that it is a bit slow phone (only noticeable on the SMS writing) really costs it some points. The camera quality is not that great it's the basics of the phone cameras really VGA. Bah. The battery is really good I have been text messaging all day & I still have some decent battery left. So I would say its pretty good battery life. The screen amazed me I wasn't expecting this much color on the screen with 65K colors & 128 x 160 pixels but the quality is pretty damn good for the price.

So basically:

The Pros
- good battery life.
- good bright & colorful screen.
- easy to connect to PC
- radio
- MP3 support
- good design
- good price
- computer charge (USB port)

The Cons
- insufficient memory (1 photo 3% memory)
- slow on text messaging
- basic camera
- 500kd for user data & 100kb to applications & SMS.

Conclusion?
Well I say you should buy it if all you want is a basic phone with some extras & that looks cool.Yeah I would grade it:

7/10
