Motorola 120e Cell Phone

Pros: Lots of features, nice blue/silver combo, great reception, awesome battery life.
Cons: Typing text messages can be tricky, long menus to scroll thru.

My Nokia phone isn't too old, but it's been dropped a few times, and the battery life was beyond pathetic. I would fully charge it, and get about a days use out of it. This happened even when it was brand new, and after two years, my mom and I decided we ...

Pros: User friendly; great reception; attractive in appearance.
Cons: Very expensive if purchased at full price.

Last summer, I purchased the Motorola 120c from my local ...

Pros: Styling, Battery Life, Features, Price
Cons: Earpiece Volume Low Compared To Other Models, Relatively Small Display

I'd like to begin by mentioning that I have been a Verizon Wireless corporate accounts representative for almost seven years now. Needless to say, I've seen a GREAT deal of handsets come and go during that time period. Some good, some bad, and everything ...

Pros: Looks, reception, battery life, lots of features for the price
Cons: Charger, volume, excessive side buttons are easy to hit accidentally, small monochrome display, menu navigation

I got this phone for free, with my plan renewal. The thing that attracted me to this phone was the styling, and the blue back-light. Let's start off with the good things. It has a ton of features, many of which I'll never use. Reception is good, ...

Pros: Easy to navigate. Backlighting makes it easy to see.
Cons: Fades in and out when it shouldn't. Poor call quality.

Something about this particular handset just isn't right. It works well for some, but for most it doesn't. Something is wrong with a few of them internally according to what I heard from an Alltel Representative friend of mine. The phone retails ...

Pros: Great reception, easy to learn how to use.
Cons: More difficult to change faceplate, but I haven't wanted to yet anyway.

I love this phone! I am able to pick up a signal anywhere. My mom just got a cell phone this past weekend, and in fact after using a Nokia model for 2 days, she took it back and got one just like mine. I can hear the person on the other line just as clearly as if they were standing by me. This phone was easy for me to learn how to use and it is my first cell phone.

Pros: Price, features, appearance, battery life, locking features
Cons: No color display, games are a little boring

Great phone, the only cons are minimal things that don't matter to me personally - i.e. color screen. Amazing battery life!

Pros: great reception, nice feel in hand, antenna doesn't break, nice blue backlight
Cons: no games

I used the Motorola v120c cellphone for a long time. I really liked it because it got great reception (when it had an antenna) and I loved the text messaging system it uses. The major thing I hated about it was that the antenna broke ALL THE TIME! I would sometimes just take it out of my pocket and then SNAP! I found myself getting it fixed every few months or even weeks.

With the 120e, it has a non-adjustable antenna so it DOESN'T BREAK! This was a big plus. It gets great reception, is small, has ALL the features of the old 120c and more. This time around it has a nice datebook, a calculator and a few other things.

A few obvious changes are the fact that it has a blue (rather than green) backlight, and a silver (rather than black) cover.

This is a great phone for people who find cellphones confusing, or people with a lot of experience.

Pros: Gorgeous body, new features, unbendable antenna, cheap with promotions.
Cons: Not too easy to find faceplates (best place is inkatomi.net), antenna doesn't extend, b/w screen.

I bought the 120e from Verizon with a promotional plan. I got the first phone for $20 and the second one free. I chose the 120-series after seeing a friends' 120c. I think the e is the most beautiful one yet. The silver casing is smooth and shiny, accented by silver buttons and backlight that glow a lovely shade of blue.

The voice recognition and headset jack make this a breeze to use in the car - just say the name of the person you want to call, and it autodials.

The e brings new features to the 120 series: a calendar/datebook, unbendable antenna, new games, new ringtones, and a great body! I would definitely recommend this item to anyone looking for a nice-looking, cheap phone.

Pros: Free, Works good
Cons: Basic, Ugly, uncomfortable , no color screen

I got this phone free when I signed up for service with my provider. it's just that a free phone. Being my first cell phone, I thought it was pretty cool for awhile. This phone is tough, I dropped it so many times and it being a non flip phone is alot of the reason it was so tough. The phone kept on working and working through days and hours of use and like I said being knocked around and dropped from time to time. I used this phone for a little over a year, and it kept on working flawless. The battery life isn't the greatest, I could talk on it fully charged for a little over 2 hours and it went dead without much warning. This is a digital phone which is good it helped the overall quality of the clearness of the conversation, but is far from the best. I didn't like the little tiny matrix screen (No Color) and it doesn't have many ringtones or really any real options, besides voice recorder, which I never used. This phone is outdated time to upgrade to something better.

Pros: Nice design, display, backlighting, and holster connector.
Cons: Poor reception, recharge jack design. Insufficient volume. No alarm clock.

My provider (Alltel) offers a choice of two bare-bones phone models for free: this one and the Nokia 3585i. Attracted by the stylish design and nice display backlighting, I chose the Motorola - bad move. My main issue with it is that the reception was poor compared to my old Nokia (which had recently died). Additionally, the speaker volume was insufficient even at its loudest setting. Finally, the recharge jack uses a poor flimsy design that I anticipated would have trouble connecting; I was correct and as expected, it just got worse with time. Finally, the thing just died this past weekend, less than one year since I got it. This time went with the (you guessed it) Nokia.

In addition to the nice design and backlighting, the Motorola gets bonus points for the swivel belt clip holster connector in the back of the phone: one of the few holster designs I've ever seen that was durable and functional.

Pros: Background light is cool
Cons: Way to hard to charge!!

I am on my 3rd Motorola 120e!! I would love to get a different phone, but since I am still under warranty Verizon just keeps giving me a new one. After about 3 months the phone becomes VERY, VERY hard to charge. I have to set something heavy on the antenna, and then something heavy on the charger just to get the right "connection" so it will charge. It is very frustrating. I can't wait to get a different phone!!

Pros: Very attractive design and blue screen
Cons: Terrible reception

This was my very first cell phone and I was so frustrated with it I felt like canceling service and giving up on the idea of having a cell phone. The reception was HORRIBLE!! People I called could not even hear me over the static. It was totally useless. I must say though I liked the features and attractive design and loved the blue screen,but those things don't matter when you can't even use the phone to call anyone.
