Anybody recommend the LG TM-510 and/or the Motorola v60c cell phones?

I'm looking to get a new one for use with verision but I can't choose between the LG TM-510 and the Motorola v60c. I'm kinda leaning towards the LG thought, the voice activation sounds bad a$$.

Thx for your input.

Between those two I would get the LG-TM510 just read these ePinions.com reviews.

I did read them for both phones before coming here. I just value the forum members' opinions above the others.

The LG-TM510 is a good phone. The voice dialing works quite well. LG got the basics pretty well right (like sturdiness/feel, portability/size, sound quality), but the menus and phonebook could use a little work. It's not horrible once you get used to using it, but some commonly used functions (what time you missed/made/received a call, ringer volume to name two) need a lot of button pushing (though you only press and hold "*" to activate vibrate, or "manners" mode). The charging and battery indicator circuitry need some refinement, but at least if the battery warning beeps if you're on a digital call, it really is a warning, as you can talk for another 10-20 minutes before the phone turns itself off. I'd ignore the complaints you might see about battery life if you're in a digital area. I think the charge level indicator is poorly calibrated. With light use, I can charge every other day no problem. Even moderately heavy users would only need to charge once per day.

The price difference ($150 vs. $350-400) made the choice very easy for me. The V-60c, like most compact Motorola cell phones, just isn?t a very good value in my eye.

IF I have money, I'd go with V60C. It's like Lexus compare to Camry (TM-510)

off to class bump, 2nd to last bump. I promise

Last bump unless somebody else does it. Thx to those of you that read this post and/or replied.

bump again.. i'm looking at the same phones. i've read that the motorola v120c has basically the same "operating system" as the v60c but just in a different form factor (metallic flip versus plastic phone-style). however, i was a cell phone store today and they said they pulled all of the v120c's off the shelf because they were getting a lot of complaints about it not working.... so i dunno. it's about a $100 phone that the store was giving away for free... the lg looks nice on the outside, but the inside looks a bit cheap. i haven't played with it for real so i'm not sure about the details.... but for $80 (on a 1 year contract) it's not bad...

Thx for the input. And for those of you that care to know i got a silver LG 510. It is soooo BAD A$$!!! I love the voice dailing, its the cooolest thing I've even seen. I highly recommend this phone.

Good going. Paying $400 for the Motorola is stupid when LG offers this gem for $150.
