I have a confession to make.  As a sworn user of Nokia mobile phones, there would be no way I would be compromised into using any other phone than the cute and innovative phones produced by Nokia.

Alas – I beg to differ.  As I held the v60 in my hands – I knew I held a gem – a treasure so many have been searching for, and not finding – and now – all is revealed in this tiny work of art – Motorola’s latest offering to the mobile world:  a stylish and sleek device which oozes elegance and sophistication.  What more could a lady ask for?

It fits perfectly on the contours of my face when I'm speaking on the phone.

Handling

With dimensions bearing a little larger than its v8088 predecessor, this little baby doesn’t feel its size and weight at all.  Feeling right at home in the palms of my hands, its 87mm (l) x 45mm (w) x 25mm (d)  dimensions sits comfortably in my little black bag, as well as fits perfectly on the contours of my face when I’m speaking on the phone.  Its 103 grams feels just perfect: barely enough to be noticeable – weather its being held or not.

Features

I have got to say – this little thing packs heaps.  Heralded as being designed to be intuitive and easy to use, with improved user navigation and visual cues, the v60 promises to deliver and satisfy.  However, Nokia users be cautioned.  A change is always good, but the navigation system on the v60 needs a little getting used to.  I found myself hitting the “Send/Call” key every time I try to cancel a function.  It is just because that key is on the right of the phone, where the “Hang up/Cancel” button is on the Nokia.  However, after a few tries and play-around, I got the hang of doing things the Motorola way.  It is different, and it is definitely a change from what we are normally used to, and I have got to say – I could get use d to the Motorola way of ding things.
