A great phone-just what I was looking for:
This is a great cell phone. It has all the basics covered well. Great reception, great ear piece volume and crystal clear calls. It has some extras as icing on the cake but I don't want to talk about them as this phone needs to be appreciated for what it is- A GREAT CELL PHONE!!!!
Best phone I have ever had!:
I have used cell phones from the days where you carried them in a separate deticated briefcase. I have had a lot of them, I normally have two at a time, one for business use and one for personal use. This is the best phone I have ever had. I just traded up from my Motorola RAZR V3m, which had a lot of flaws (see the Amazon reviews). The w755 has fixed all of the flaws of the RAZR and then some. As I see it these are the main PROS: Quick on and off.
Excellent sound quality.

An Excellent Phone with Solid Features:
I spent 4 hours reading reviews on various cell phones, including two hours on the W755, before buying. Overall, I couldn't be more pleased. I upgraded from an LG phone that was just over two years old. Several of the W755's features are one's that I either did not have available on the LG, or were ones that I was not impressed with on prior phones. What a pleasant surprise the following were: 1. The speaker phone works very well. I had seen reviews complaining about the speaker phone... more info
