The Motorola V276 is awesome. I got one as a replacement for a LG VX 6100. I am sure glad I did. The LG was nice and pretty with a better display and seemed like the better phone. However, it would constantly drop calls and not receive calls for some reason. The reception was okay but not as good as my Motorola V276. Yes, the V276 doesn't have the display quality or fancy look of the LG, but it surely works better. I have had zero dropped calls with the V276. My reception is the best of any cellphone that I or any of my friends have had (I got plenty of friends in college with all kinds of cell's). The battery life is also a little better with the Motorola as compared to the LG. In the beginning I was debating which one of the two to get. I choose the LG because it looks like a better phone. Honestly in my opinion it is not. The Motorola does what a cellphone is suppost to do. It talks clear and consistently. I do know others with similar situations and results. As of now I would definetly recomend for people to buy Motorola quality and stay away from buying something that "looks cool." Go MOTOROLA!!!!!

Although this phone isn't the fanciest looking phone out there, it'll probably out perform the ones that are as far as reception. This phone works perfectly were my old LG didn't. It even gets better reception than my friends Samsung SCH-a670 which itself is an amazing phone. The speaker phone works great, and so does the voice dialing features. The camera could be better, but I have a digital camera for that. It does what its supposed to do very well which is to make and recieve calls. At first look/feel you might think that its rather flimsy, but looks can be deceiving; I put it to the test the first week I had it by not only dropping it on the pavement, but once I dropped it, I stepped on it, and I'm not skinny at all. It came away with only a few scratches. Other than the camera, I am very happy with my V276. I highly recommend it.

Although I do not use this phone much it;s great to have around. If you are a business man/woman this is a great phone for you. It has speakerphone, camera, and excellent reception. (that's a first) Anyway there are many more great things about the phone:

Pros:

Sleek yet still motorola design
At first I didn't like the outer faceplate but it's growing on me
Speakerphone

Cons:

Terrible camera, but like I always say it's a phone, right?
Lacking Flash
Not really a problem at all but i don't like how the antenna color doesn't match anything else on the phone, would look so much better with black antenna and chrome pull out antenna.

In the end, if you are the basic business man/women looking for a decent verizon phone for home and work, this is the phone for you. (But if your'e looking for a better camera go with the Audiovox/Verizon Wireless CDM 8910, same basic features with better camera but worse speakerphone)

i just got this phone because i was sick and tired on my old lg vx6100. i decided to go with this one because it was an inexpensive fix until i buy a verizon when i get a new plan in january. anyhow i hate lg and samsung and also audiovox, personally i would only buy motorola or nokia from now on because they make phones that last and that do the job right. all the motorola's out there still work, they are the ones that get handed down to you friends when they break theirs and the same with nokia... so to hell with all the other brands!

I would probably buy a comparable LG or a Samsung if I had to do it all over again.

PROS: Outside screen is always on
Good signal and voice quality
Hands free features adequate
Easily hackable to put in ringtones, pics etc.

Cons: Badly built, flimsy and plasticy
Not as solid as LG and Samsung phones
Camera sucks
Memory too low

Look for my step by step to cracking a v276 in order to put in pics, rings and more!!! endless343
