My old Nokia almost never dropped a call, but my new Motorola V330 can drop from 1 to 4 calls per day, in the same area, with the same service provider. Everything else about the phone is very good, except the ring volume button is outside the flip top, and it is easy to accidently change it to soft or silent, and then miss a call. It would be better if this button was protected, like the key pad is.
