Motorola C300

The Motorola C300 is a very simple mobile phone (no camera, bluetooth, MP3 player), for someone who just wants a reliable phone, not a techie who demands gadgets.

Overall, no matter the cons, for it's price you getting a lot more than what you paid for.

There should be some way to reduce the illumination on the Motorola C300.

It takes a long time for reading of address book and ringtones down-loaded cannot be edited.

I think my Motorola C300 mobile phone started off with room for about 10 text messages but over time the most text messages I can store is 3 which is so annoying. Also you have to wait for quite a long time before you can access the phonebook when you first turn it on. You can not send pictures either but you can recieve them. I would reccomend this phone to someone that only wants to use it to call but not who always texts. Overal this is a fashionable little phone that lights up with wicked colours.

The good points about the Motorola C300 mobile phone are: The flashing colours at the start they really make you jump! The way you can change the lights and colours at the start, that is really good. I also like the way you can have a screensaver, the cat one is great and cute! But there always has to be bad points so here they are: At the start i sort of like the motorola thing but i think there should be a choice. I dont like how if your friends send you pictures you can not send them to another friend i found that really frustrating. I also dont like, when you turn on your phone and maybe you really badly need to get into your phone book it says that thing service not ready or something like that.

The Motorola C300 is a very cute and clicky mobile phone to have around but it also has its problems....

Motorola C300

The Motorola C300 is a great phone and has great looks. The txting is a bit complicated at first but its fast and easy once u got the hang of it. great screensavers, pics, ringones. ya can get the screensavers of the hellomoto.com where it gives u a wap site to get them. the ringtones and logos u can go to www.cbfmobile.com they are 10p each i got another logos site where they are 25p-50p which is www.easy-logos.com. on somesites u check if dont have the motorola c300 compatable look for if a nokia is coz them 1s work 2. if any of ya m8s have nokia mobiles they can send u pics etc. if i was you i would get it sim free this is a great phone really bright like a torch at night. its excellant i only know 1 bad point............

When I purchased this C300. I was amazed on it sheer size it's really quite tiny. Then I switched the phone on. Man the way thoses colours jump out at you. ( Quite funky )... The C300 I think personaly has been a great release for Motorola. ( Great job guys ) this stylish phone has quite a few little gadgets tucked a way in that sleek design.. well the cost was about 220 NZD. this phone is far more the just a novelty . its practical and the sound quality isnt bad..

Loved the shape and color of the boday,(blue)it feels comfortable when it sits on the hand. The weight is also just rigt, this makes the overall phone experience great. Having said that, moving to the features of the phone.

There is a total of 6 games, from tetris, snake, Brick(box), 5 stone, numbers & Box(number puzzle). the games are addictive and a good time killer...

the menu nevigation is easy, however, the middle button cannot be use to 'select' and one more drawback is that the menu resets everytime, you go back to the previous menu. It does not go back where it leave off. Furthermore, there are not many flexibilities at the menu like Nokia phones. if i am at phonebook, I can only make calls, I cannot edit the phone book, I need to go to another phonebook menu to edit the phone list.

The 3 backlight color is fun, and also could set different colors or diffent color flashing for different callers. The blue LED is rather bringt, can sub for a mini torchlight, but if you just woke up in the night and want to check the message, the lights could be blinding... could not change bringhtness...

Battery life is horrible, am an average user, averanging 3-4 calls a day. the phone only last 2 days for every full change.

the phone came with very few screensaver and pictures. We are expected to download, which are rather expensive... for normal users, do not expect loads of media here. Phone preloaded with 27 ringtones... all are songs, except for one.

The battery cover is also rather difficult to open, it is ok, if you do not change sim card often... The phone has an auto lock function which my previous nokia does not, and also the phone has auto power on and auto power off function, where it would be useful for people who only want to use the mobile for a specific range of time.

Overall, the phone has its plus and minus.. i still like it purely because I think it is cute and nice.

The Motorola C300 looks very good and is light weight, easy to handle.

Good reception.

Bad points:-

Phone address book menu text should have been short enough to fit within the screen. Now it looks very odd as we have to wait to see the full text.

There is no way we can switch off the key pad light as this consumes lot of battery energy ..

There must be a option to switch of monitor and

key pad light separately.

Two other (yellow and white) monitor colors not

sync with kep pad color which makes very odd to use this good feature.
