V710 and Verizon - Quality/usability thread only
Wanted to start a thread for those who have already purchased and paired their Verizon V710 phones. Good/bad comments? Just want to hear from everyone on whether it's worth the $249-$400 it'll cost. Any major issues? HFL working okay? etc...keep the purchase type comments on other threads and just talk quality here....sound like a plan?

I leave the phone in my cup holder and the quality is great on the speakers and the person I'm talking to can hear me fine most the time. I can hear them clearly and turn up the sound so loud to where the entire neighborhood can hear the person on the line and understand them. Granted it's not CD quality! but it's like really good radio quality! There is a one second delay when you answer the phone and you must wait before you say "hello".. like give it 1-2 seconds longer than normal. Also you don't want to talk loudly, it will distort it to them.. Just because they can't hear you doesn't always mean you aren't speaking loud enough.. I keep all windows shut when driving and I sit back comfortably in my seat (I don't try to get near the MIC on the top) and we have a perfect conversation. For some reason people have problems hearing my girlfriend through the bluetooth whether she's driving or is the passenger.. She keeps trying to talk too loudly though when the person on the line is having trouble hearing them. I keep having her sit back and act like she's just talking to me.. Then the person on line can usually hear her fine. Problems can happen when multiple people talk simultaneouly.. not a very effective conference call.
If you are eager for bluetooth phone from Verizon, I think this phone is worth a good $300... I wouldn't pay more than that though and would be worth waiting for it to be cheaper... shouldn't be too long away.
