Review: Motorola V195s
The Good: This is a well-featured flip-style world phone with multimedia messaging features, instant messaging clients for the most popular networks and a wide array of polyphonic ring tones.
The Bad: This phone is aimed at the business market, and as such does not include a camera. The inclusion of voice dialling is a nice touch; however this only works through a headset or car kit. The speakerphone only works at short range making it difficult for callers to hear when there is excessive background noise. The low 10MB of shared internal memory provides little room for extensive user customization. The unit’s SAR value of 1.6w/kg, being the highest allowed under US regulations may worry more health-orientated users.
The Bottom Line: This is a mid-range phone with impressive talk and standby times. The phone serves business users well, however ‘leisure’ users or those wishing a more high-spec device may wish to look elsewhere.
