Motorola MOTOFONE F3 review: Budget wonder

 

Motorola Fone F3 or Motofone is a unique mobile device. It unites the latest modern trends, on one hand, and a very basic functional menu, on the other.

modern slim design ; good keypad ; solid construction ; high contrast display with large font ; long lasting battery ; voice help ; alarm clock ; very basic functions ; extremely low price

segmented display – only six letters in line ; certain characters and symbols are difficult to read ; does not make difference between upper and lower case letters ; some basic characters are not possible to type ; uneven backlighting of the display...

Backlighting is of worse quality. It is heavily uneven, being the strongest under the lowest key line. The rest of the keypad is illuminated in dazed white. When the phone is moved, one can see how fast backlighting twinkles. However, this does not...

Motorola FONE F3 Review

 

The Motorola F3 or Motofone is not the most advanced mobile phone out there. It will only appeal to those in need of a basic device for communicating with friends and family members.

Motorola MOTOFONE F3 Review

 

Besting Nokia, Sony Ericsson and Samsung all over America, with its RAZR-like design, Motorola decided to apply the successful form factor to a low-end handset: Motorola F3. What can anyone do to drastically reduce the cost of a newly launched mobile...

The touch of Motorola designers is pretty obvious in this case and the thickness of the device cannot be overlooked (and it won't be either). Even if slim doesn't necessary mean good-looking, the RAZR-like design, backed by a very "interesting" price...

Maybe a little bit more work on the ringtones and display would've been "healthier" for the buyers. But as it has been done, unless you have no ear for music, you'll hate your call ringtones and will most probably learn to "feel" your F3 instead of...

Motorola MOTOFONE F3

 

The Motorola MOTOFONE F3 is a budget phone that simply makes calls and sends SMS messages. There is no music playback, no camera and no Bluetooth. Thi...

Value for money, voice prompt assistance, very easy to use, hands-free speakerphone, new display technology

Only two lines of display, no predictive text input

The MOTOFONE is a breakthrough product in the mobile phone market, and is an excellent option for anyone looking for a handset to simply do the basics. At this price, it's a clear winner.

Motorola MOTOFONE F3

 

Is an electrophoretic screen, very long battery life and a low price, enough to make the F3 an attractive choice?

Motorola MotoFone F3 review

 

Motorola's MotoFone F3 is the cheapest phone in the group, and definitely the most unusual. It's a stripped-down mobile, with no extras such as a web browser or MP3 player. It's designed just for making calls and sending texts.

Motorola Motofone F3

 

The F3 is cheap, frills-free and has an extraordinary battery life - but does it take simplification too far?

Screen is easy to read. Slim profile. Amazing battery life

Awkward operating system. Lettering so big texts are hard to read

The F3 is very cheap, looks good and has a monstrous battery life – but the brow-furrowing, overcomplicated menus let it down
