Amazon.com Product Description
An updated version of the venerable V325, the V325i includes an important piece of modern wireless technology; Bluetooth capability. Other features include speaker-independent voice recognition, which allows you to dial a number by speaking the name of a contact, or by speaking the digits of a phone number. When this voice technology is used with the two-way speaker phone the V325i allows for true hands-free operation. If you're in your car a lot, this is the phone for you.

Design
The phone features a traditional clamshell design with a large LCD display that supports over 65,000 colors. Most of the phone's features and on-screen menus are controlled by a five-way center button on the handset's blue backlit control pad. The V325i's stylish design includes a unique light-up outer bezel, and a comfortable rubberized case that not only contributes to its sexy look but helps ensure you always maintain a solid grip on your phone. The unit houses a stub-extendable antenna, a built-in mini-USB port, and a standard jack to accept universal hands-free headsets.

Calling Features
Robust calling features are at the heart of the V325i. Speaker-independent voice dialing allows you to make calls without ever touching the device. The V325i's built-in address book can store up to 500 contacts, with up to six numbers per name, for quick and easy management of phone numbers and email addresses. In addition to having a discreet vibrating alert, the phone supports both 72-chord polyphonic and custom MP3 format ringtones, which means you can really jazz up your incoming calls with cool tunes. The V325i also allows assigned ringer and picture IDs so you can easily identify incoming calls from your address book by a glance at the screen, or from across the room. A built-in two-way speakerphone makes it easy for you and others in the car to talk hands-free.

Because the V325i is Bluetooth enabled, wireless headsets can be configured with the phone for total handsfree operation. Meanwhile, the V325i's GPS location technology pinpoints your exact location when you dial 911, and allows you to take advantage of Verizon's VZ Navigator service so you will never get lost again. Perhaps most importantly for users in rural areas, the V325i is a tri-mode phone, meaning it can operate on Verizon's digital networks, as well as analog networks that serve many outlying areas.

Messaging, Internet and Tools
The V325i covers the messaging basics with support for sending and receiving text and graphics via messages. Getting on the Internet anywhere is easy with the V325i, as well. Verizon's optional Mobile Web package allows you to read and send e-mails, exchange instant messages and view your favorite web content on your phone. You can check your e-mail, trade stocks online, compare prices while shopping, access flight information, get movie listings, and find directions to the theater.

Verizon's Get It Now wireless download service is also fully compatible with the V325i. This pay-per-download service features application downloads, games and productivity tools. You can also personalize your handset with ringtone downloads and digital photo-sharing tools using the Get It Now service.

The V325i ships with a calendar and a voice memo application, as well as an alarm clock and a calculator.

Imaging and Entertainment
The V325i includes a powerful digital camera with a 640 x 480 VGA resolution that features a 4x digital zoom, as well as a self timer so you can even be in your own best pictures. This unit also features customizable theme colors, screen backgrounds, fonts and caller ID graphics and pictures so you can make your phone reflect your personality. Games and other applications are available via the Get It Now service.

Vital Statistics
The Motorola V325i weighs 4.09 ounces and measures 3.58 x 1.93 x 0.94 inches. Its lithium-ion battery is rated at up to 195 minutes of digital talk time, and up to 200 hours of digital standby time. It runs on the AMPS 850, and CDMA 850/CDMA 1900 frequencies. The phone comes with a one-year limited warranty.

Note: The V325i supports handsfree Bluetooth systems. It does not support all Bluetooth object transfer (OBEX) profiles.

4 out of 5 stars Not ALL bad   January 12, 2008
 0 out of 1 found this review helpful

I have had this phone for over a year and like it quite well. Yes, the battery life is not good AND it is a slow phone if you have much stored on it. BUT, the interface is easy and it beeps every few minutes when you have a missed call, and not many phones do that nowadays. That's a biggie. One problem I have that no one mentioned (and maybe it's regional), but try as I might, I can't do voice dialing bec the phone can't understand my accent. Even if I PRETEND not to have a southern accent - it can't tell what the heck I'm saying - it just keeps guessing any number of incorrect names. Other than those, I really like the phone :-)


2 out of 5 stars Ringer too quiet, no bluetooth, photos stuck in phone   January 3, 2008
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

I used this phone for a few months, then put it away for six months, then used it again for a day. I will replace it. No bluetooth = no handsfree. The ringer is just too soft, even with the loudest ring tone. I miss calls as a result. It has a ringer or vibrate, but not both. That's just dumb. The external antenna makes it stick in my pocket. There is a weak camera and no microchip. Even though it has a mini USB port, there is no way to get the photos out of the phone except to email them to yourself. I never used the GPS because Verizon charges for the service and for the minutes, and then you have to squint at your cellphone screen and drive. No thanks. But .. it has a real nice exterior and clean lines inside and out, a nice tactile feel. Nice voice notepad. Feels sturdy, but it's not heavy. All in all, this phone is not worth keeping even as a spare. It is not even good as a kids first phone because they won't hear you call them.


1 out of 5 stars NOT a cell phone to buy   December 27, 2007
I did not like this product because it started having problems very soon after I purchased it. The capability of the phone to hold a charge was the largest issue. I still own this product, but have to have the phone plugged into the charger in order for the phone to keep a charge. If the phone is not plugged into the charger, it dies within two minutes and then more problems arise. When you try to turn the phone back on, after the power dies or after you just turn it off, it will freeze on the opening screen and I have to play around with unplugging and plugging it back in, turning it on and off, before this problem is fixed. I know it is not the battery itself, because after the phone dies if you take the battery out and then put it back in it has a full charge. All in all, I am very dissatisfied with the product for these reasons and I wouldn't buy this model again.


1 out of 5 stars DON'T BUY THIS PHONE!!   December 24, 2007
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I originally purchased this phone October 2006 when I signed up with Verizon. The firt phone 325I lasted about 6 months with major enough issues that Verizon gave me an exchange. My second 325i cuts me of in the middle of converstions and does not hold a charge. Verizon tells me the battery is good forabout 8 months in this phone and is $40.00 to replace it. I am so frustrated with it I want to throw it out the window of a moving vehicle to fix its issues. Verzon will not admit to all if its problems. I have insurance on my phone but I do not want another one just like this one t replace it. I will purchase a different one out right to keep from having to deal with a third one just like this one.


1 out of 5 stars Horrible Phone   December 17, 2007
I have a family plan and out of the four v325i's we got, three have failed completely. Motorola utterly refuses to recognize these phones are junk even though our local Verizon store told me that over a hundred of these phones have been turned into them as defective (and I live in a small town). Motorola has even discontinued this model, at least for Verizon customers.
