The Good:
- Technology: The Motorola v361 is compatible with worldwide GSM frequencies which is convenient for overseas travelers. (Roaming fees from your home carrier generally apply) (score: 7/7)
- Talk Time: A talk time of 220 minutes. It is quite good! (score: 16/20)
- Memory Expansion Slot: It features a memory expansion slot MicroSD, a convenient way to store more pictures and music or transfer them from and to your laptop computer. (score: 10/10)
- Speakerphone: It has a speakerphone, which will prove useful in a car or in other situations. (score: 10/10)
- Streaming TV: Streaming Video or TV. Streaming TV, provided your carrier offers it, allows you to watch real live TV on your cell phone. It involves additional fees but can help kill time in queues, doctor waiting rooms or many other situations. (score: 5/5)
- Wireless Data System: Bluetooth-enabled, which is an interesting plus. Bluetooth is not really necessary but may be handy if you want to use a wireless headset or transfer data to or from your (Bluetooth-enabled) laptop, for instance. (score: 7/7)
- Push-to-Talk (PTT): The Motorola v361 supports Push-to-talk (PTT), a technology that allows you to instantly talk to other people owning a PTT phone on the same network, just by the push of a button, as with a walkie-talkie. (score: 7/7)
The Average:
- Weight: A weight of 3.6 ounces is close to the average weight for today's phones. (score: 8/20)
The Not-So-Good:
- Stand-by Time: 140 hours of stand-by time. This is just basic. (score: 8/20)
- Phone Book: It can only store unknown phone book entries. If you have many business contact or friends, this may not be enough for you. (Find phones with more phone book entries) (score: 4/20)
- Camera: The (unknown) built-in camera is basic. Useful, but you won't win photography contests with it. (score: 3/10)
Overall Score: 85
