This little thing does it all...almost.
by wilky86 ,Jan 04 '04
Pros: Color screen, Features, voice dialing, Polyphonic ring tones. Cons: No camera, no pre-loaded games, not multi-country useable.
I received the Motorola T720 as a gift and I was shocked at all the features it had. I can access games, ring tones, information, tools, you name it, and it can do it. I have only had a few complaints. It does not have a camera, it does not come with any pre-loaded games, and it is not multi-country useable. Other than that I love it. It has a date book and a 500 person phonebook! You can text message, check voice mail, e-mail, you can receive faxes! The color screen is awesome for the size. I thought when you have a color screen on a phone that it would be low quality. Not this one it is a top of the line phone. I would recommend it to anyone, even the electronically challenged!! It is a great phone, at a great price, at a great size! It is also a solid piece of equipment. I have dropped it several times and it keeps trucking!

So-So
by klock86 ,May 08 '04
Pros: Color screen and graphics; flip phone; small and sleek; changeable outer body. Cons: The phone can get laggy; the keypad isn't the best.
The graphics are good with the color screen. I also like that its a flip phone. I prefer those rather than the open keypad phones, because the keypad always has to be locked. The phone is, however, laggy. For example, when flipping through the phone book, it can get really slow. The battery life is pretty good. I only charge it two or three times a week. Its definitely not the best phone out there, but it came free with service, so it's not bad.

T720
by matrix33 ,Mar 22 '04
Pros: easy navigation color display external display ,size Cons: belt clip is bulky,leather case is junk with the plastic window over key pad
I have had no problems yet with this phone, great size easy navigation.Not sure about battery life yet as I have had it for a week and only have charged it once since I got it. I am not sure what some are talking about retractable antenna because mine is fixed. everything is great otherwise
On a 2 year plan I paid $50.00 Canadian for this phone and so far I love it.

A really near perfect phone
by wfx55 ,Oct 11 '03
Pros: Small, easy to carry, GREAT screen Cons: Battery could last longer but hey 4 days ain't bad
I had read all the other reviews of this phone and had some doubt if it would suit my needs. I tried Nokia 6340i and 3595 before I got this one and I was extremely disappointed by the quality and performance of those phones. The T720 has a signal where the Nokia's were not(I had many, many complaints of not being able to be understood while using the Nokia's). The sound is crystal clear, something very lacking with the Nokia. Battery on the T720 is a bit shorter than I would like but hey thats what they make chargers for! Everytime I have bought a new cell phone I have tried other manufacturers and always end up coming back to Motorola simply due to the sound quality.

Nice phone, good price
by clwhipper ,Oct 14 '03
Pros: Small size, nice display, ergonomic, nice display on outside of clamshell, large& easily accessably keypad Cons: Needs a larger display & more ear volume.
Cingular baited me in with a $49.00 upgrade with a 2 year contract extension. I liked the looks of this phone & read the reviews... boy there's some harsh people out there! I figured I would try it out in spite of some scathing reviews
because if it was a dog, I would return it within the trial period.
I have not been dissapointed by this phone. Battery life is good(1 week on standby) good sound quality & clear functions.

Motorola T720C Recall??
by cb43 ,Dec 01 '03
Pros: Sleek, Cool options Cons: Poor battery life, bad service reception, garbled audio, poor backlight.
I have two T-720C CDMA phones with transceiver numbers of "SUG3388AE" they both have the same problems:
1. Poor antenna Reception. 2. Short Battery Life (8 to 10 hours before low battery warning even with no calls) 3. Switches from D to A in a Digital service area.
4. Garbled audio reception. 5. missed calls and no voice mail notification even after service is restored.
I found out from my Wireless ISP Tech support that the T-720C transceivers with the following numbers: "SUG3388AE" (like mine) have been recalled by Motorola for replacement! Hummmm
. Now I know why my phones are unreliable!

Too much money for low quality
by qwjcom ,Jan 07 '04
Pros: About the only advantage is it's small size. Cons: Expensive, poor reception, display glitches, difficult to turn on and off.
This phone is small which is nice, but it's got a lot of problems such as difficult to turn on and off and reception is not as good as many cheaper phones. The battery and signal meters are aweful, not detailed enough. The internet feature is a JOKE.

Feels nice, but don't try to use it.
by lsvand ,Apr 21 '04
Pros: Nice looking design. Comfortable to hold. Nice interface. Cons: Voice quality is poor.
Ring quality is poor.
I am coming off of my free Nokia phone with Voicestream and decided to pick this phone with my new Cingular service. Big mistake. The phone is very comfortable to hold, but the interface is poor and the sound quality is worse.
My first tipoff should have been the fact that to hear the phone ring in my pocket on the street I needed to turn it up to the highest volume.
From there it was downhill. I couldn't receive or make calls at peak hours from most of my house (I live right in the city). I started getting dropped calls and garbled speech during conversations. Because I only have a cell phone I stopped wanting to call people and people didn't want to call me.
I should have bought the same as my husband - a Sony Ericsson.

Wish I kept my StarTAC
by bigmag80 ,Dec 21 '03
Pros: Open with one hand, big display, ringers Cons: Low earpiece volume, poor menu keys, low battery life, fragile
I bought this phone from Verizon last December, wanting to upgrade from my Motorola StarTAC. I kept this phone for about 5 months before the thing completely died and wouldn't come back on. I went to Verizon, and in the past 4 months, have gone through 4 different cell phones, (all Motorola T720's). This is by far, one of the worst phones that I have ever owned, it is fragile, can't handle impacts, and flat out stinks. I would strongly recommend getting either a StarTAC or another type of color screen phone. I was very dissatisfied with this phone and will not purchase it ever again. I cannot believe Motorola would make such a phone with such a bad reputation and problems.

Piece of junk
by prosndinc ,Jan 05 '04
Pros: Good graphics, loud enough, game Cons: Always broken, bad belt clip, battery life stinks
The worst cell phone I have had to date. It is in the shop for repair more than on my belt.Of course that because the belt clip has never made it thru a full day without falling apart. The screen goes dim and locks up at will, several times a month. The preferences change at will,and the battery life stinks. The phone has been replaced 3 times in as many months and it still stinks. Stay away
