I was VERY interested in that Moto V 710 because it has all the features I want PLUS a bigger display. However, I took the time to download the User Manual and found that Voice Dialing for this cell phone means "Saying the digits into the phone" NOT "Saying the person's name."

How does this make it any easier on me? I would have to either know the phone # by heart, or I would have to search for it in the V710, and that takes time, and more so in a poorly lit room. How is saying "384-6621" easier than saying, "Gladys"?

I have the manual on my Desktop and will continue to read it over.... so that if I buy the V710, there will be NO surprises. And thank you very much for the Name Dial information and for keeping the V710 in the running for me!

May I assume that you have or...

The V710 overall is a good phone. It has its faults, but what phone doesn't? I especially like the Bluetooth headset. Now that I have used one I won't own a phone that doesn't. The 710 should give you a couple of years of good service. Good Luck! 😁
