I'm Looking For a Solid Phone!?

Ok heres my deal...I have the v551 which is ok, but I am having trouble hearing out of it which is probably my fault because I have dropped it more times in a week then the average person does in a year.

However I am looking for a new phone...I need good reception, and Blue tooth, and thats about it...I have Sirius radio so the MP3 thing doesnt impress me, and the camera is a bonus but not a need.

Every phone I think I want I read posts about it being bad, or too heavy, or lots of problems.

I have been looking at the slvr or the 6682...I have no idea why i guess I just think those are the 2 i need...anyone want to help me out?

Standing O for all those who give me a few words of advice.

You have to remember that different people want different things, and no single phone is going to please everybody. There will always be complaints, no matter how good the phone.

The earphone quality on the Moto v series is notoriously bad, so I'm not surprised you're having audio problems. If your main requirements are bluetooth and reception, I would suggest:

SE z520 (smallish flip phone, good RF, bluetooth, unremarkable camera)
RAZR (good RF, bluetooth, etc.)
Nokia 6682 (bigger and heavier than the 1st two, not a flip, but has smartphone features the other two don't)

If an mp3 player isn't important to you, why are you looking at the SLVR? Unless you need something small, I would pick the Nokia 6682 over the SLVR in a minute. I don't know what the reception is like on the SLVR.

Out of those 3, the z520 will be the least expensive. If price is not important and you don't need a tiny phone, go for the Nokia 6682. That would be my pick.
