Moto v600

[liamreddo]

I've been looking around for a new clamshell phone and was wondering if anyone can help me. I kinda want the smallest one as the only feature that I currently use that much is the sms but I can't find any size specs for the v600. Can anybody help?

Also, any advice on which phone to choose overall? Not bothered about the wait. SE Z600, Moto V600 or the Sharp GX-20?

Ummm... last time I checked none of the new three clamshell Motos (V300 500 and 600) had IrDA (Infra-Red). Seems Motorola doesn't believe in IrDA. (#_#)

z600 is thick as a brick, doesn't have bluetooth, has an inferior camera, and tons of other negatives. not saying you shouldn't get it or that the moto is better for you but just some things to keep in mind.

z600 equiped with Bluetooth :mad:

for the v500 and v600 i dont think irda is needed as they both have bluetooth. so you can communicate with your PC wirelessly and quicker with bluetooth.


v300 as USB which is good but u still need to buy the addon cables as it doesnt come in the box

Yeah exactly. I bought an IrDA adapter for my desktop specifically for this purpose, so it's annoying when they 'move on' only to Bluetooth and scrap IrDA.

Unless of course, they supply the USB data cable with the phone. In that case I have no problems at all. =)
