Introducting Motorola Motofone F3 Unlocked Cell Phone--International Version with No Warranty (Black)

Combining Motorola's sleek design sensibility with intuitive and easy-to-learn functionality, the nicely affordable Motofone F3 slides easily into your pocket. Functional and fashionable, the Motofone F3 is designed to keep you in close communication with your friends, family, and business associates via voice and text messaging. It features dual-band GSM connectivity (850/1900 MHz), speakerphone, a clock with integrated alarm, and up to 500 minutes (over 8 hours) of talk time as well as up to 300 hours of standby (over 12 days). This unlocked cell phone does not come with a SIM card, and it requires that you provide a SIM card for usage with your selected service provider.



The super-slim Motofone F3 features a unique electronic ink display with large, easily readable characters.
Phone Features
This candybar-style phone measures just 0.35 inches (9mm) thin, and it has a unique Motorola ClearVision display that helps to increase the battery life of the phone. The changeable electronic ink display (electrophoretic imaging film) is easy to read in bright sunlight or dimly lit environments from virtually any angle--just like paper. Additionally, the display is plastic, lightweight and ultra-low power, making it ideal for mobile and power sensitive applications by eliminating the weight and breakability of glass used in LCD displays.

The text display contains only two lines of six characters each, and it shows a digital clock when there's no activity. Combined with a flush-fitting keypad and dust-resistant design, the Motofone F3 is especially durable in active everyday use.

The Motofone F3 offers a redesigned user interface with voice prompts to guide the you quickly and easily through menu navigation, messaging, and other functions. In addition, graphical icons visually demonstrate the menu features as well as network status and battery strength. For pre-paid customers, the Motofone F3 automatically reports the status of your pre-paid account after each call or message.

This phone allows you to store contacts only on the SIM card (for 250 entries), and it provides a view of the last 20 dialed/received/missed calls. The layout of the numeric keypad resembles Motorola's SLVR phones, and it includes a large navigation pad as well as send/end keys and two soft keys. Above the display are bars showing signal strength and battery life. Other features include:

  • High-volume for call clarity in loud environments
  • Embedded polyphonic ringtones in eight voices
  • Ability to download ringtones
  • Silent vibration mode
  • Speakerphone

Vital Statistics
The Motofone F3 weighs 2.4 ounces and measures 4.5 x 1.85 x 0.35 inches. Its 750 mAh lithium-ion battery is rated at up to 500 minutes of talk time, and up to 500 hours of digital standby time. It runs on the 850/1900 GSM/GPRS/EDGE frequencies.

    This phone was a waste of money. All the directions were in Spanish. If you need something that will dial out, this phone can work for you. But, if you occasionally text, would like to see names clearly and have an ease of use: then this phone is NOT for you. Keep your money and get something you would like that has a more user friendly version.

  • LOCKED PHONE! | Rating: Star Blank_star Blank_star Blank_star Blank_star | Date: 2008-10-11

    Do not buy this. I ordered one - was locked. Had amazon send me a replacement - also locked. These phones are useless. Don't waste your money. The advertising is not deceptive - it's simply false.

  • Don't Buy from Amazon! | Rating: Star Blank_star Blank_star Blank_star Blank_star | Date: 2008-10-09

    Like others who've posted, I just bought one and it was sent completely and totally intact with a subsidy lock from some company called 'Tigo.' Basically, amazon is advertising an unlocked phone and sending out phones that are completely useless unless you have a Tigo SIM card! DON'T BUY THIS ITEM FROM AMAZON!

  • Amazon sold a locked pnone | Rating: Star Blank_star Blank_star Blank_star Blank_star | Date: 2008-10-09

    I have no doubt that this is a capable phone. IT is very simple and does what a phone should do. That would be all great but I can't even make a call on mine because amazon sold me a locked phone for the TIGO network. That is from South America. My ATT sim card does not work in it and it just asks me for a pin number that is at least 8 digits long. To make matters worse it is speaking in spanish.
    Shame on you Amazon.
    Mine is getting returned like others on here.

  • DON'T BUY IT...... | Rating: Star Blank_star Blank_star Blank_star Blank_star | Date: 2008-10-07

    Hi!! Just wanted to add my opinion regarding this phone. Don't buy it!

    I read ALL the reviews prior to purchase and was completely prepared for a barebone phone, no bells, no whistles...PERFECT. What I received was a phone that was not unlocked. It was branded TIGO thus requireing a pin subscription to access AND did not recognize my AT&T/Cingulair Sims card. After hours on line, a useless Motorola rep and AT&T and no solution in sight...the phone is being returned. If Motorola can't even figure out how to address the start up issues....and it's their phone....that's beyond ridiculous! They recommended that I mail my NEW phone to them so that they can reset the system to one that I could use. Thanks but no thanks! I'm returning the phone and going to BestBuy to grab me an inexpensive disposable phone until my contract expires.

    Just hope I can save someone else all this hassle!

    If you order this phone there are no guarantees that it will be an UNLOCKED phone that you can use in the United States.

    Buyer BEWARE!!!
