Excellent basic economical CDMA phone. Review on Motorola C131

Motorola C131 is an excellent basic CDMA cell phone.The first impression that comes to my mind is the excellent clarity is sound reception, though perhaps the credit may go to CDMA technology

The drawback is the SMS feature.It has a complicated mode to convert the ''ezitext'' mode to ''multitap''.i.e in Ezitext mode, it helps the SMS user to automatically insert the word after enterig few characters.But in reality this is of not much use.So every time one needs to send sms he has to change the setting which can be tedious, ands irritating at times,considering in the age when one likes to send quick messages.

Lookswise as a basic phone, it looks good.I have purchased this phone for my father which is offered by Tata Indicom. But the Tata Indicom seems to have some problem with network in some areas in Kolkata, though the the phone cannot be blamed for this problem.

But I am sure Tata Indicom will soon ensure strong coverage and network going by their reputation.

Going by the attractive price tag(Rs.1499/-), it is perhaps cheapest first hand phone which is neither bulky nor ugly.It is perhaps a phone which is suitable for senior age group who prefers the basic features i.e just for calling/receiving calls, with economical tariff(by Tata Indicom), and excellent sound/voice quality.

If u r looking just for a basic phone but at economical, and first hand instead of searching for an cheap handset in grey market I suggest go for this handset.But it is certainly not for one who requires advance features like GPRS,colour,camera etc.......
