    After a very poor experience with my iPhone, that was destroyed, I made a "temporary" purchase of this Motorola... After a month of use, I am extremely happy and will use this as my permanent phone. It has excellent camera quality and the reception is remarkable. Must have been fate!!!

      Thank you for sharing your feedback, Thegreatsage. We’re glad to hear the battery is holding up well. We’re sorry to hear the performance has been slower than expected, and we appreciate your suggestion for updates. Slow performance is sometimes caused by too many running apps in the background. Use your recent apps button to close apps you're not using. It is also a good practice to restart the device periodically (every 2-3 days) to clear out buffers and memory that may lead to intermittent issues. If the concern persists, kindly go to this link: https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/mcp/landing_troubleshooter/g_id/5059 > Next > Display/Touchscreen > Phone is slow/unstable and try the recommended steps there. Should there be any further inquiries, please do not hesitate to email supportforums@motorola.com. We'll be glad to help. -Mitch MotorolaMobility

      It's great to hear that you're enjoying your phone, Sharon! Voicemail setup can vary depending on your carrier, but typically, you can set up voicemail by dialing your own phone number from your Moto Stylus phone and following the prompts. If you encounter any difficulties, your carrier's customer support team should be able to assist you further. As for the phone's size, it's understandable that it may take some getting used to, but it's fantastic to hear that you're adjusting well.
