Motorola V3 or Sony Ericsson W300i

I want to buy a 'pay as you go' phone (on orange network) and i am interested in these two phones as i want to buy a flip phone and also as they are in my price range, no more then £120

The only thing wrong and weird about Sony Ecrisson is i dont like the buttons on the phone lol

And for Motorola phone, my brother just brought one on saturday (so dont really want to buy the same as his but i still like the phone lol)

Motorola V3

Sony Ecrisson W300i

Which is the best phone to go for???

DO NOT get a V3. That is the most over rated crappest phone ever.

^ what do you think of the Sony one then?

Erm, W300i dumps upon the V3 from a great height.

V3 is an awful phone.

Lol even I was suckered in when the V3 first came out and I thought "Thats nice I wnt that." Then my mate got one and I messed around with it and thought "Nah its crap I don't want one." lol

I know we've already said this but really, I just can't emphasise just how awful the V3 is - really!

30-10-2006, 20:25

So we agree, the V3 is awful then lol

Lennie · 30-10-2006, 20:30

Looks like i will be getting the Sony phone

I guess you guys don't like the V3 then!!!...lol

I had a V3 and had no problems with it....nice feel to the phone and had the motorola functionality that I prefer...but the camera quality wasn't great and mine didn't have video capture...only other problem was the poor internal memory.

I've currently got the W300i ...don't let the strange looking keypad put you off as it's easy to get used to. The phone has a decent feel to it and its light, but a little thick. I was attracted to it for the walkman function and I've always preferred flip phones and my only real complaint is the sony ericsson functionality......everyone has their preferences and mine is for motorola.

I hate the V3 because it was way over priced, has a crap camera, no video, 6mb memory with no memory card slot. My mate got it when it came out and it was terrible then and still is now ;d

Here is a webpage with the two phones side by side with all there features laid out so you can compare them. V3 has got to be the mosy hyped up phone ever and it is posibly the worst lol. IMO SE are very good phones. Do NOT buy the motorola!

Note: This site does not actually have a review for V3 but it does for V3i which is the V3 with better camera and memory card slot. So think of V3 as V3i without those things.
