User Reviews for Motorola WX290

Nice phone

Good value for money cellphone. Features include: Excellent call quality, text messages with auto complete, quality headphones, good looks with flashlight!

I have brought this phone and its more than what i expected. voice clarity is awesome, a 3.5 mm headset jack is the only thing that this tiny machine lacks :-)

I have a 4.5 year old Motorola L9 which is working quite well. Its battery still gives a standby backup of 48 hours. I am looking forward to purchase a basic handset for my mom and I think, this would be the best as it has expandable memory of upto 2gb, a VGA Camera, and bluetooth. No other handset in this price range has these features.
