    Default Motorola V551 - thoughts?

    Hey everyone, I'm looking for a new phone for the Rogers network. My old V60 crapped out on me and I'm using a Sony Ericsson temporarily. I'm leaning towards the Motorola V551. Thoughts on this phone? I'm in the $100-200 range and its gotta be a flip.

    The Vxxx series are all the same, pretty much.

    The V551 has bluetooth so it's got a slight advantage.

    The V551 has EDGE, Bluetooth and the ability to record video which is over the other Vx00 series (except the V600 which has bluetooth. Also has some extra keys around the send/end button and now it's the nokia style versus the Motorola style (END on the Right, SEND on the Left). Software is sligthly different as well, has a new skin and different feel, but same functionality as before.

    I just can't get over how it looks like a V300 with it's multi colored blue/grey look though. Pretty good phone for the $$$.

    Xkon is selling his for $250, very good deal for what you get. (http://forums.beyond.ca/showthread.p...threadid=70423)

    ha ha ha free plug! thanks!

    ive had 4 v-series phones and the V551 was the best... the V600 was the pimpest but RF was shitty

    the V551 does look somewhat like the V300, which i also liked as it wasnt as heavy or fragile as the V600... and it does have the new software and sound quality is excellent. If i didnt get a blackberry id keep it, but i have no need for it now!
