Motorola V635 Review

Phone rating:

Review: March 2005.

The new V635 is an enhancement of the Motorola V620. The V635 reverts to a silver and black case instead of the all-black case of the V620, but apart from that they are physically very similar, being the same size and weight. It's quite a heavy phone as clamshells go, but it's one of the best specified camera phones available.

The key addition is the new 1.2 megapixel camera with 8x digital zoom, camera light and camcorder capability. This is a big step up from the 0.3 megapixel (VGA) camera on the V620. The internal display is the same as the V620 - it's a top-rate TFT display with 262k colours and a large 176x220 pixel resolution. Both the internal display and the camera are as good as anything you'll find on a mobile today. The external display isn't quite of the same quality - it's a CSTN display which can be difficult to read in bright sunlight, and has just 4k colours, but this is not unreasonable for a secondary display.

The next most welcome feature is the addition of a TransFlash™ memory card in addition to the 5 Mbytes of internal memory. This really lets you make good use of the multimedia capabilities of the phone, especially the video recorder and MP3 player.

The V635 also upgrades the GPRS connection to a high-speed EDGE connection, which is ideal for downloading video and audio content.

Overall it's hard to fault the V635. It's a phone that delivers on every count, the only shortcomings being it's high weight and cost.

Features of the Motorola V635 include:

  • 1.2 megapixel camera with 8x digital zoom & light
  • Video capture and playback
  • Internal display: 262,000 Colour TFT (176 x 220 pixels)
  • External display:4,000 colours CSTN (96 x 80)
  • MP3 player
  • Polyphonic ringtones & MP3 ringtones
  • MotoMixer (Remixable MIDI ringer software)
  • Downloadable Themes (Ringtones, Wallpaper & Screensavers)
  • Java games: Embedded & downloadable
  • SMS, EMS & MMS (Picture / photo + text + sound), email, instant messaging
  • iTap™ predictive text
  • Connectivity: Bluetooth®, USB
  • Memory: 5 Mbytes plus TransFlash™ memory card
  • Voice features: Voice-activated dialling
  • In-built Hands-free Speakerphone
  • WAP 2.0, GPRS class 10, EDGE (high-speed data)
  • Phone Book: Up to 1000 entries
  • Picture Phonebook: Up to 100 KB
  • Calculator and currency converter
  • Date and clock
  • Datebook with Reminder Alerts
  • PIM functionality
  • Vibration alert
  • Quad Band (900/1800/1900/850 MHz)
  • Standby time: Up to 200 hours
  • Talk time: Up to 525 minutes
  • Size: 89 mm x 49 mm x 25 mm
  • Weight: 124g

I have written a review ealier and this is really an outstanding phone....HOWEVER...I have now a problem transfering sounds from memory card to phone. There is plenty of memory on the phone to take the sounds. So now I am stuck with the same ringtones at the moment. Transferring pics from card to phone are fine. Anyone else have any problems like this and know of a solution. Thanks

Kinda big for a clamshell but I think it's fine. Just the right size for ease of use and prettiness. The battery is fine if you know how to get the best from it (let it run out completely the first few times), and the camera is good. my only gripes are that it's pretty hard to personalise as the menus are tricky to navigate. Also, the video doesn't record for very long- About two minutes on lowest resolution and only ten seconds on highest. Great phone over all.

Not a bad phone but not the best ive ever had, great camera and ring tones(all the important things we look for in a phone). Problems are, i cant really hear anyone when they call, the txt format takes some getting used too and the silly keys along the side mean that i can't put the phone in my pocket as im forever taking pictures of the inside of my pocket. On the whole its ok, but i wouldn't go out of my way to purchase another one, i still prefer my old Samsung E700.

What ever you do don't get this phone. Compared with Nokia's everything is difficult to find and do. The phone book has separate entries for each number rather than associating them with one person. The WAP service doesn't seem to work and even if you do manage to get it to work you cannot bookmark web sites. The battery doesn't last long. The camera was poor quality when it worked and after a few days develop a red line down the picture.

This is the first Clamshell i have owned and was not sure, but first impressions are favourable. The phone is easy to use, the MP3 player is quality, but slow to load. The only thing that is really bugging me is trying to connect the phone to the bluetooth headset, which came with the package. I cannot get the two to talk, but apart from that the phone seems good.

All in all this is a great little phone. When opened the earpiece actually goes to your ear and the microphone actually sits near your mouth. It's easy to use and you can personalise the shortcuts and side buttons, which is handy. My only fault with the phone is that is freezes on accasions when recieving the odd picture via bluetooth. A great thing is that with transflash cards you can expand the memory upto 256mb. The 256mb card can be bought for less than £25 inc. delivery online. Great phone!

Futher to my review a couple of entries down, since writing that I have found that the battery is actually quite good. When I was charging it before I would occassionly check the battery status and when it was at 6 then I would stop charging it, what you need to do is leave it until it says 'charging complete' under the date and that it when you will get the full power from it. As a medium user, its lasted almost two days before it dropped a bar. Also if you haven't discovered it already, please play with the Motomixer! It'll give you 6 tracks to choose from. Once you have selected one it'll break it down into 4 instruments eg, drums, bass, piano and strings and let you remix the track the way you want. Obviously, its not a a vital feature on the phone but it's a hell of a lot of fun! One last thing, I noticed that a lot of people have talked about what memory they've got. Me and my boyfriend bought our phones a week apart from O2 with one of their online tariffs. Both of us got loads of extra bits anyway but O2 included a motorola music pack with even more extras including a free 128mb memory card!! Not sure how long they'll be doing that for so snap them up quickly!

As reported by previous reviewers, the battery/charge on this phone is awful. The battery level drops from full to critical within hours. Turn it on and with normal use it will be dead in about 4/5 hours. Absolutely pathetic.

I've had this phone a few days now and i think its amazing. The camera quality is outstanding (even seems better than my 2 megapixel stand-alone digital camera!). The video recorder is just as good...although when you transfer videos to your pc, the quality isnt fantastic. The screen is very high quality compared to other phones with its 262K colours and high resolution. The best feature of this phone (probably what i bought it for) is the massive memory you can add to it. It came with an internal memory of 11MB and ive bought myself a 256MB transflash card for putting my mp3s and videos on. The only problem i had with this phone was working out how to transfer mp3 and videos to and from it, the program that came with it was confusing to use but i got it eventually. I've taken full advantage of the video player/memory capacity and put a whole season of family guy on it - i'll never be bored on the bus again :) If your transferring large files to your phone, i recommend that y ou get a SD card reader rather than using the data cable because file transfer speed with the data cable is terrible.

Just bought this phone and its going back already! I've had so much hassle trying to get a signal with the thing I've had to get on top of my shed before I can even receive my sim updates. Admittedly the phone looks great, but its no good if I can't even make a call on it. My partner has a mobile on the same network as me, and she has great reception - so of my phone goes, back to Orange. I won't be getting another one.

I had wanted a flip top phone for a couple of years but never found something that really took my fancy. Well V635, come on down! Not only is this phone stylish it packs in a lot of useful features. I've previously been a nokia person so knew that switching to a different make would mean it would take time to get used to the new layout, however, the V635 was suprising quick to pick up. The user interface is straight forward. The camera quality is outstanding with lots of options to make your pics even better. The sound quality for calls is superb. The thing that I really love though is that it gives you a lot of flexibility to personal it so you really feel that it is unique to you rather than part of a mass production! The only niggles I have about it is the manual could be a little more detailed. Sometimes I found that it would tell you how to do something but not actually explaining what it is in the first place. On Bluetooth, it has the option 'find me' but no pairing, so you would prob need the other device to find you rather then you find it. Also, the battery could last a little longer but then I suppose it is powering 2 high quality colour screens. I know that people have had some problems with it crashing or bluetooth not working etc but if your considering buying it go for it. Faulty phones are rare and returnable. Its worth the risk of having to send one back because its a fantastic phone.

Where to begin. I've had the phone about a month. Have used many different phones. Am switching from a Pocket PC phone so that I can use the EDGE with my bluetooth pda. The camera is awesome. Takes good pics and the MP3 player is nice. I did a search for '256 trans flash'...got a good deal on that..the MP3 ringtones only work from the phone's memory, and not the transflash...cut 'em up and make 'em smaller then move them to the phone's mem...a pain, granted, but you always answer it before the whole thing plays anyway...keep them around 30 seconds tops and you'll have about 256 K each...with only 6 megs or so to play with, every bit counts..I have almost a dozen loaded up (close to 100 tunes on the transflash though) and it boogers me up when I go to check my email..always running out of memory on the phone..wish I knew how to store the mails to transflash...haven't figgered that out yet...I had to make a new gadget though...I took the stock stereo headphones, cut off the ear pieces and spliced it into a regular female headphone jack...sweet....now I can plug ANY headphones in to jam to my mp3s and also use my car adapters (cassette and FM), or external speakers to more fully enjoy my music.....it's not the perfect phone, but it is definitely a good one...it does a lot and has a lot of expandability by way of java applets...the video recorder does sound too...an added bonus and pretty unique for such a smally, stylish phone...seen one that had the metal pieces chromed...very nice...hard to find accessories in the states right now...found some in Canada and UK so far though...

Supplied by Mobile.co.uk on Orange. Definatly the best phone I've ever owned, the build quality is superb and though the menu system isn't as easy as Nokia it takes less than a week to become competent with. Besides that the camera is great (1.2 MegaPixels), nice selection of features and quality settings. The flash is also one of the brighter on the market. MP3 ringtones sound pretty good, the speaker doesn't live up to my NEC616 but then 3 barred the phone from using mp3's as ringtones anyway. My main grudge would be the side buttons which occasionaly get pressed when in my pocket, though they don't end up making calls the beeps annoying enough. Also Bluetooth discovery isn't always on (you have to activate it then you get 60 seconds to be found) so don't expect to receive random messages out at the pub. You can still find others to send to mind! Looking forward to expanding the memory at some point, already managed to fit an episode of Family Guy onto the 16mb card by re-encoding to the screens resolution so lots of fun to be had! All in all a great phone, mine was supplied with everything I could need bar a bluetooth headset. Software works well on the PC and I'm back on a real network (Orange) rather than Three! Similar Featured Phones - Samsung D500 / Sony S700i

After agonising over whether to get the Samsung E720 or the Motorola V635 I decided on the Motorola.I had initially made the right decision because my daughter came home with the Samsung.All I can say about the motorola is that's it's OK.There's no wow factor about it except the MOTO ring tone...........WOW!It feels and looks a good quality phone and it is fairly easy to follow the instruction book.The quality of screen front and inside is good but picture quality of camera is not as good as the Samsung E720.I don't know what the battery life is like or any of the functions such as mp3 etc.I probably won't get that far as I think it will be going back shortly in favour of something else.

I got my V635 last week from O2 online. I was initially a little frustrated with the menu system, as I've upgraded from a Sony K700, which had a comparatively user-friendly interface. Now I'm a few days into ownership I can honestly say I'm impressed with the phone and the user interface is very good. The camera is one of the best I've used on a mobile phone, easily on par with the Sony S700 (My first choice for a phone, which O2 have pulled from their range due to firmware issues). The MP3 player is very good, though a little slow to initialise, very much like waiting for windows media player to open in Windows XP. The supplied 32Mb card is more than enough to get started with, in terms of media storage, though I have found some 256Mb cards online which will make this phone a very usable MP3 device too. Build quality appears to be excellent; the aluminium casing should prove to be much sturdier than the all-plastic case of the K700. I was surprised at the amount of kit that came supplied with the phone - Stereo headset/hands free kit, software CD, PC sync lead, bluetooth headset, memory card, split charging system (for charging the phone and the bluetooth headset simultaneously) and a hefty manual. I do however, have 3 (minor) complaints with the phone: - 1. No SMS counter, which means I have to track my SMS usage online with O2. 2. Read receipts don't work for sent text messages. 3. There's no FM radio! Overall, this is an excellent phone, packed with decent features for the medium to high user. As with all previous Motorolas, new users should be careful with their chargers and phone charging ports as they have a tendency to fail after 9 to 10 months of usage. They aren't particularly robust, so exercise a little care and attention when charging your phone. Also, for those of you ordering your phones online be aware that my V635 has been supplied with a faulty external screen that doesn't work unless the clamshell is squeezed tight. O2 have sent me a replacement without question or delay, but be mindful that you may get a "Friday afternoon" handset.

MULTIPLE PHONE BOOK ENTRIES Regarding the comments that multiple phone book entries are NOT supported by this phone - yes they ARE! It just happens that your contacts are 'expolded' by default. Phone Book > Settings > Setup > View > Primary Contacts Now only your primary contact per person is shown in the phonebook list. To see their other numbers, scroll left or right. Job's a good 'un, as they say round here! Overall I am very impressed with the improvements over my V600, which I loved. This is one solid, well featured phone. Very happy with my free upgrade! However, the Samsung D500 is a worthy contender and camera is considerably better, both in quality and features (multi-shot anyone?!).

Also when using the flash on the camera, the light comes out on the side of the pic. This phone is very easy to use.

After the bugged V600 and the pointless V620 (which had numerous MMS and WAP problems), I was reluctant to upgrade to V635...I needn`t have worried as it is a great little phone. On o2 contract and have had no problems whatsoever with this phone. Great quality camera and video with a high quality screen. MP3s are a bit fiddly to get on the phone but once you get the hang of it its great!! My only grip with the phone is that if you get a txt msg and you leave the phone for a few minutes the phone goes back to displaying the time and u have to press smart button on side to check if you got any messages. Other than that this is a great phone!!!!

Great Phone, love the camera, excellent picture quality for a camara phone, good battery life as long as you don't leave the bluetooth on too long. Works well as a speaker phone, tend to use that now more than the bluetooth head set. Annoying bits, as said below button on side switches camera on a bit too easily,(lots of blank pictures of the inside of my pocket ) would be nice if you could turn the button off. Other than that a brill phone, had the choice of the Raz v3 but the camera clinched it in the end. One thing , how do I set an mp3 as a ring tone, I just can't work it out, Answers on a postcard....... In reply to the other Rob from England, I think you are talking about the cable that connects to the charging cable and splits it into two to charge the phone and a motorola blue tooth headset as well. Needless to say phone goes to phone and headphone goes to the headset.

After owning numerous Motorola phones and never having a problem I decided that this was the one for me, and boy was I right! Its a class phone, the features are great the feel and build quality is excellent. One thing I do like about the Motorola menu is that you can pin lock nearly every aspect of the phone. The phonebook, text messages etc, basically everything can be locked to keep out prying eyes. Well sorted if your cheating on your woman like I am. One thing I would have liked to see is an option to turn off who has sent the message as the senders name shows upon opening. Only a small gripe though, on what is a fantastic piece of kit. I was tempted to switch to another phone make when my contract ran out after owning a V500 due to its poor camera but I'm so glad I didn't. All in all, a perfect phone in every way, keep up the good work Motorola!

I just bought this phone yesterday, and I'm really pleased that I did! It was the clamshell design and megapixel camera that attracted me to it, but I have to say that every single thing about this phone impresses me. The screen is large, bright and clear, making texts easy to read, the video camera is great fun and voice calls are very clear. The main review picked up on the (relatively) high weight of the phone, but I reckon this gives it a sense of solidity and reality you don't get with floaty light phones! The best phone I have ever owned, and I got it because of what I read on this site! Thanks Mobile Phones UK!!

Got the phone for 2 weeks now and just wanted to give other people the low-down: At the end of the day it is really a matter of taste so just let me list the good and the bad points. First the good: solid construction, even though the battery cover doesn't sit very tightly. The keys are a joy to use, just feels nice. Good mega-pixel camera, have seen better though (Sharp GX30i, SE S700i). Good sounding MP3 player, need to uprade TransFlash memory card to 256MB to make good use of it though. Use MP3s as ringtones AND message alert (unlike Samsung and SE phones). Good reception quality, in fact this is the first Motorola phone I have had to have no problems in this area. Wallpaper picture appears automatically on outside screen as well. Transparent menus, you can see your wallpaper through icons and navigation items. Now the BAD: I actually cannot believe this, but there are NO time stamps on incoming, outgoing or missed calls - it just lists the number or name and that's it! The hot key on the side of the phone is programmed to start the camera when the phone is closed and you CANNOT change this - pressing this button accidentally is very annoying. The Java MP3 player application doesn't seem very stable - you can create playlists in the Sounds menu though and play your mp3 in there. The outer screen only lists missed calls and incoming texts for a short period of time, then it reverts back to standby (showing digital clock) you have to press the side key to check. Battery life is not very good - 3-4 days with minimal use, 2-3 with medium and just a bit longer than 1 day with heavy use. Very annoying bleeping that you CANNOT switch off when battery is low. With all that said it is very solid and stylish phone and definately one you want to be seen with. Hope this short review is useful to anybody.

This is really the best phone I have ever had! It as all the features you need eg. bluetooth, camera, 262k colour screen, an outer and an inner screen, mp3 player, video and some good ringtones. I've had a 4k colour screen (siemens SL55), a 65k screen (ericsson T610) and now I have this 262k screen and you can really notice the difference. The pictures are really clear and the videos are good too. The bluetooth works fine and the mp3 player is quite easy to use and great quality. I received the headphones and USB cable with the phone, didn't have to buy them separately. Got a really good deal with 02 on the net. I couldn't be happier, its a fab phone and I wouldn't trade it in for another one!

Superb phone! Upgraded from Sony Ericsson T610; of which I only miss the multiple phone numbers in one phonebook entry (something that has been mentioned here a few times)...although this doesn't detract greatly from the overall features. I received shed-loads of extras with O2 contract (headphones, bluetooth HS, USB Cable etc). Upgraded to 256MB Transflash card which is proving very useful. Phone is robust, camera is excellent, transflash expanding capability is great (and suprisingly cheap), mp3 player is very cool and by transferring songs to phone can use mp3's as ringtones. Well happy, well done Motorola!

Excellent phone but on the Orange Network you cant seem to change the Shortcut Icon Keys. Does anyone else on Orange have the same problem. The menu should read SETTINGS>PERSONALISE>HOMESCREEN>HOMEKEYS, you should then have options ICONS, UP, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT, LEFT SOFT KEY, RIGHT SOFT KEY, SMART KEY. With orange i do not have the LEFT, RIGHT, UP, DOWN options so i cant change the homescreen shortcut icons. If you have the same problem or not please let me know as i am speaking with Orange regarding this matter. EMAIL: imd1968@hotmail.com

We've had this phone for less than a day, and we want to send it back. It's difficult to set up, finding the option you want means going through the most obscure menu system. The main buttons are great, but the function buttons are poorly marked and very fiddly. The buttons on the outside are far too sensitive - if you leave it in a bag, they are constantly beeping as they get bumped. The quietest ring volume is still far too loud. The look of the menus is the same as my Samsung D500, but the way they work couldn't be more different. We haven't tried the camera or actually making a call yet, but I don't think this phone will be with us for very long.

Right, I've had this phone just over a month now and overall im very happy with it. It looks good, it feels well built, its very very easy to use and it does every thing you could want it to do. Well thats what i thought until it started playing up the other day. It's doing the freezing when you try and text someone trick which i believe some one else has experienced here. I've taken mine back to the 02 shop and been told its a software problem so its been sent away to be sorted. Pain in the bum. I'm hoping that it doesnt happen again as i really like the phone. If you experience the freezing fault on texting best thing to do, in my opinion would be to take it back to where you bought it and get them to sort it for you!! Overall its not bad!!

I have owned nothing but Motorola mobiles and having recently upgraded from the V500 I consider the V635 to be the best phone in the market place right now mainly because the amazing removale transflash memory card provides so much flexibility for storing mp3's, mpegs, jpegs etc. I have an amazing collection of CD's on my card already, the camera and video functions are easy and good quality. The inclusion of the mobile phonetools software, USB cable and earphones makes it truly good value. All it is missing is an FM radio and a GPS option if you're reading this Motorola? Minor niggles - phonebook separating individual numbers instead of storing under one profile, minimum volume on MP3 player is still too loud, when a call ends after interrupting an MP3 session there's no automatic return to the music. None of them are serious issues and I'm sure the next model will be even more sensational.

This is a really good phone, but i'm quite annoyed that unlike most other phones today if you want this on Vodafone you have to buy headlphones and the USB cable seperately adding at least £70 to the cost. If you get a phone this good you wanna be able to use all the features on it and so need these items. Considering loads of other networks give these free as standard i'm taking it back to the shop tomorrow. Would happily get the same phone again, just check 'what's in the box' before signing anything!

If you put the picture on the internal memory you can select it but it will not save it.. It's driving me nuts !

Reviewed by Neil M from England on 4th Apr 2005
Let's start with the good stuff. The V635 has an impressively robust design - far better build quality than the fashionable V3 RAZR - and even stronger features. The main screen is bright, large and has a good resolution to support the 1.2MP zoom-enabled camera (which also has a decent video capture mode). The user interface is well designed and highly customisable, and the keys are sufficiently large to ensure that using this phone is not an ordeal for those with big hands & fingers! Looking a little deeper, we find a couple of decent pre-loaded games - "Golf" is a 3D game in which you can earn points to upgrade your clubs and balls for greater performance against a range of computer characters, and "Top Gun" is a vertically-scrolling shoot-em-up which I found pretty difficult to play on such a small games controller. Maybe I'm just getting old. The predictive text seems to be pretty good for the messaging, although I can't find any useful icons like I had on my Sony Ericsson (e.g. smileys). One thing I do prefer about this phone is its volume - much louder than my old T610 and not much chance of missing calls now! Plus, the polyphony's pretty good. Unfortunately there are some aspects I'm not so happy with. The phone book is poor and won't allow storage of multiple numbers (e.g. home/mobile/work) under one profile - you need separate entries for each number which seems silly. If you place a call and get a busy tone, the "redial" button doesn't seem to work - instead, you have to use three keys to hang up/access recent calls/redial. Minor point maybe but sometimes it's a nuisance if you're trying to get through for ages. The "received calls" menu is also disappointing as there's no indication as to what time the call was received - just the order in which they came in. Selecting one of the entries, I tried hitting the button in the centre of the 4-way controller thinking that this might give me further info - but it just deleted the entry instead! Upon which I learned the lesson that this central button replicates the functionality of the right-hand multi-function button, though it's not always intuitive. The alarm clock is nice and loud and I like the way you can set up multiple alarms, but one annoying element is that, if the phone is off when the alarm time rolls around, the alarm will sound but there's no way to set a snooze. So, if you're using it to wake yourself in the morning, you might want to keep the phone on overnight, which isn't necessarily ideal. For me, the jury's still out on this one. It's a good-looking phone with a decent build and a generally sound UI, and I've generally found the signal strengths to be good. Battery life is OK but nothing special though I do think people bleat about this a little too readily (it's called "plug it in overnight!" No great hardship). But for all its plus points, the design flaws are irritating at times. Time will tell which of this phone's two personalities will win through...

Seems to do everything i want it to, without any problems. Having all the accessories (USB lead, memory card, software), in the box was a bonus too. Getting used to the free software took a little time, and getting ringtones and wallpapers into it, could be easier, but you cant have everything -- or so the wife tells me!!!.

Thanks to the user reviews on this excellent website, which helpfully warned of problems with earlier versions, e.g the V500 series, I found that the V635 was the one for me. By taking advantage of Carphone Warehouse's Price Match (against the Orange Shop), trade-in and using Orange 120 tariff I paid a total of £10 up front for the V635 which I've had for three weeks now. Seems to work well with my newly purchased Parrot Driveblue Plug ~ Drive Bluetooth unit www.driveblue.com and it paired instantly. As a Nokia user looking for bluetooth and clamshell I consider it a natural sucessor to the Nokia 7650. Coming from a Nokia background I was totally unaware of the use of the menukey in a multitude of situations - it's rather like a Windows right mouse click - and until it was pointed out I couldn't find certain basic functions. Readers may be interested in the V635 discussion at http://www.avforums.com/forums/showthread.php?p=1545430 One of the buttons on the outside is called the Smart key which I couldn't find documenteted in the Orange manual except to call it the Smart key in a diagram. It was causing me irritation whenever it was accidently touched especially as I couldn't work out what it was trying to achieve - Styles / Camera or what? Meanwhile I found activating the Bluetooth link to the Parrot Driveblue device in the car from the phone a pain as it required so many keystrokes each time. I've now discovered that by using Personalisation of the Home screen I can set the Smart key to be Bluetooth Link and made the operation a lot simpler thus I've solved two problems in one go as accidently hitting the Smart key now isn't a problem. I've also changed the intial setting for the right soft key from Video to Camera and moved the Settings icon to the centre (default) on the main menu. Mobile phone tools Works OK here with Windows 2000. From what I'd previously understood I wasn't expecting a CD-Rom or USB cable with the 635 when I purchased it however it's all there and yes the software is indeed disguised as 'advertising pish'. If your disc says 'mobile phonetools V3.0' in an oval on the right just cancel the flash presentation and you should find it. However don't expect to be able to load the software into a directory of your choice. A couple of other points: When importing from Outlook the address book splits different phone numbers etc. into separate records. Also when doing a Back-up Mobile phone tools puts a CSV file in the BVRP folder it created. May I suggest that to make this review board even better users wait and add something rather than post their opinions in the first couple of days of owning the phone. Otherwise the 100 review cut-off prevents long term experiences appearing.

Than follow the instructions of the application on your computer(should work). Btw. this is the only way you can use your mp3 as ring tones. Sending pics and other stuff is easy: settings - connection - bluetooth link - select - setup - power: on (you can also specify name you want) than select pics or other desired media press Pictures menu button( top in the middle) - copy - bluetooth - look for devices - and that would be all.

I have just bought a Motorola V635 on an Orange contract having had a Nokia 6600 for about a year. Although I have enjoyed the 6600, I really prefer a flip phone and wanted a 1MB camera. After a lot of research, including reading reviews on this excellent website, and after trying the phone in my local Orange shop, I decided to go for the V635. I've had a V500 before so I knew what to expect and the V635 doesn't disappoint. The build quality is excellent. It isn't the lightest of phones, but a bit of weight makes it feel like a quality item and it's fitted together really well and feels very solid. The external colour screen is great. The metallic material used for the outer case feels good in the hand, and all the detailing on the outside of the phone makes it look very desirable. Flip it open and the layout of the keypad is superb, good to look at and easy to use. The keys feel nice to use and have a positive action. The internal screen is very bright and colourful, not the largest of screens, but definately one of the best quality. The user interface is typical Motorola. It may not be quite as straight forward as Nokia's, but is simple to follow and use after a bit of practice. The UI has been refined slightly from the one I used on the V500 and as a result is better to use. The phone book in particular has received some welcome attention and now has a name search facility. The 1MB camera and built-in flash are excellent, as is the built-in video camera. The addition of a Transflash memory card means there's plenty of space for storing photos, video and sounds. Messaging works great, including MMS and email. The other great thing with this phone is the RF. It gets a signal everywhere and really holds onto calls well in areas where other phones cut out (it's worth having that little stub antenna). Call and sound quality from the earpiece and the loud speaker are about as good as it gets. So if you want a good quality phone, that looks great, has all the latest gadgets and gizmos (including bluetooth), and most importantly makes clear sounding phone calls just about anywhere, then I highly recommend the V635. I really believe it is the best 2G phone currently available, and considering what it has to offer, can be bought for a reasonable price on contract or sim free. I'm very happy with mine and I hope this helps anyone else trying to decide whether to get one.

This is my first Motorola phone and I do like it, it is a good phone.

I bought the phone unlocked and very easily set up picture messaging, gprs and email on the phone. It has many of the features you expect and comes with the excellent mobile phone tools for PC synchronisation. There are problems with the phone, Bluetooth doesn't work and the phone will not store addresses like my old Nokia and Sony Ericsson. The way the contacts are managed is not intuitive. There is one missing feature which I find quite strange, the call log shows missed calls but doesn't give a date and time for the missed call. The phones strengths are that it does the basics of making calls, sending texts and picture messages, browsing the web etc very well. The addition of expandable memory and decent MP3 software is definite bonus.
