Best Reception Ever!

I bought this phone because i "lost" my other phone, which sucked. It was a motorola c332. Compared to that phone, this one is a godsend. Never buy a Motorola. But even in comparison to the Nokia 6190 that I had before, the 6610 is wonderful. I have TMobile and the reception is rarely but occasionally spotty in surrounding towns. In one friends house, I was never able to get a signal, with either phone. As soon as I got the 6610, perfect reception in the whole house!

The ringer is quite loud, if you need it to be, but you can choose from quieter settings, including of course, vibrate with or without ring. The vibrate is very strong... i feel it even when it is in my bag. There are many rings to choose from, and they are polyphonic, so they are pretty. There is no standard ring, so a professional might feel silly with the goofy ringtones, but you can always download different ones.

The phone automatically locks itself, which is a huge help.

It has a built-in radio, but you have to have the headset plugged in to make it work, and i can't be bothered with that.

The phone has a loudspeaker which I LOVE!!! I use it as my handsfree now. If I am driving, I just tuck the phone into my seatbelt across my chest and the sound is perfect on my end and on the other person's. People I talk to don't even know that they are on speaker.

The phone has features like java and stuff but i don't bother with that so i can't review it.

Great color screen and great battery life. Don't even bother with the extra battery. Its a waste of money and you'll probably never use it unless you are going somewhere without electricity or something.

Infrared transmitter so you can send info wirelessly to a PDA or another phone or something.

The phone is very expensive unless you get it through a new plan, but if you need to get a new phone anyway, this is one of the best.
