If your cell phone takes a lot of abuse, consider selecting the Motorola V60 for your next purchase. This cell phone's anodized aluminum casing is scratch resistant and doesn't show fingerprints like other chrome-covered phones. The Motorola V60 also has a fixed antenna that is much more durable than the retractable antennas on some cell phones.

The sound quality from the Motorola V60 is above average, and this cell phone also features analog roaming. Calling features of the Motorola V60 include three-way calling, caller ID, call history, and custom ringtones. An external LCD screen lets you see time, date, caller ID, and text messaging information without opening your phone. One of the Motorola V60's most useful features is its voice recognition software. This allows callers to create voice command shortcuts, record voice memos, or dial contacts from the 400-entry phone book.

Optional cell phone accessories add additional functionality to the Motorola V60. TrueSync software lets you synchronize your cell phone's calendar and phone book with your personal computer. You can also choose to purchase an optional data kit and FM radio accessory to turn the Motorola V60 into a wireless modem.

If you're looking for wireless web access, a camera phone, or advanced gaming capabilities, the Motorola V60 isn't the right choice for you. However, it's a reliable and easy-to-use phone for anyone with limited calling needs. The Motorola V60's high-capacity battery that provides up to four hours of talk time and eight days of standby time is another definite advantage. The Motorola v60 is available for CDMA, TDMA, and GSM networks, so be sure to know which version you will require for your service provider.
