i have the v710. i mostly love the phone. i agree that the screen quality is pretty blah but that's only for the pixwallpaper. then again, the only thing i need it for is menu's and texas hold 'em and those are actually pretty good.

the picture rendering on the handset is bad but the actual 1.2 megapixel picture is pretty good if you send it to pix place and work or print from there.

the major complaint over the lasr few years for motorola has been reception issues and that appears to be licked...and pretty well i might add.

sure, the v710 had some glitched right off but hats off to motorola for getting them fixed right away.

i love the v710. it's a very sturdy phone. i think the 265 is pretty good and really is quite alot of bang for the buck.

I have the v265 also and I would return my phone in a heartbeat. As a matter of fact im in the proccess of finding a new phone now after only about 3 months with this phone. It's no doubt one of the best looking phones i have ever seen but the sound quality is horrible{ unless it's on speaker phone} and the camera phone picture quality is terrible too. {the pictures are very blurry and dark} . So if your looking for something to hold you over unill u get something better, go ahead & get it. but if you want something that's gonna last choose something else. I would suggest not choosing a motorola phone


im in the same position as you...except ive had mine for about 7 months...im surprised that i lasted...

It depends are you looking for camera quality or phone quality.

Phone Quality: V265, V710

Camera Quality: LG 6100/7000, Samsung a670

Personally suggest Motorola E815
Great camera and phone quality
Even has V/Cast. Wish i could
trade in my LG 7000 for that.

It depends on what you are looking for, goto a Verizon store and play around with the phones too see which one you like better. Read as manyr eviews on them as possible, it helps if you have any questions to know what you are talking about.

Yea, there is no substitute for playing with the phones and actually talking on them, or doing whatever you intend to do with them.

I just got an LG vx6100 after years of using a StarTAC. Compared to the current v710/v276 the menues are much better thought out, the screen is better the camera is OK ( I think the pictures have too much red in them) I can download the pictures from the LG with dataPilot without having to send them via e-mail, which you do with the either or the MOTO phone, well except it seems you can store the v710's pix to the miniSD card and then read that.

At the end of the day thought I think the soudn quality on the LG is crap. When I listen to people they are breaking up and I go huh all the time. The other thing is the MOTOs have sidetone and the LGs, and Samsungs for that matter do not. sidetone is the atenuated sound of the users own voice that comes through the earpiece that gives them the sence that the equipment is working and how loud they are talking. That's just my personal preference.

I was leaning to the v710 till this morning when I see that the v276 is out which seems to be just the v265 with a TFT display.
