I want this phone so freaking bad... My mum said I can get it soon but not yett i don't think its available in London yet. Can someone help me will this phone be good for talking and texting and quick camera shots? As I don't really want it for internet as I have a iPod touch, I just really like the style and shape as it's different to a blackberry as that's what everyones has got aswell as iPhones
The navigation pad isn't a problem ast all, ok you need to go back to enter to choose something, but you'll have 2 fingers on the cordy key board!!! Duh!!!
i love this phone i am getting it when i upgrade my sucky phone in october and i think people who hate it are kinda STUPID!!!! unless its just the little tweeks that could be fixed then u r fine :)
the processor is 720mhz not six-hundred-ish. and complaining about the resolution was a bit daft. its the right size for the device. many phones have way smaller or same size screens. you compared it mostly to smartphones, where you should've looked at all types of phone to compare to, but i likes the stepping stone idea. the stereo microphone pissed me off with your voice panning back and forward, perhaps make it mono next time. apart from that, really good review, ima buy this phone.
@sonatamartica well, the screen definitely has the right size but I too think the resolution is so low. i played around with it for a while in the store today and i really really liked it except for the display, which is simply pixelates any content.. it desperately needs more DPI in my opinion.
Hey John, question: Could you talk less, and use what you test more? I'm a visual learner, and it starts to get boring just listening. I (and a lot of people I know) would rather see more use to what you're reviewing, rather than just words and words and moving the product around a little bit.
Thanks,
urmonator
(Ps, I didn't mean that to come across as rude, if that's how it sounded. :/ )
the resolution is awful, that alone would kill it for me if i was in the market for a low end android device. dont care for the design either, but for the most part, keyboard looks nice.
People think this phone is really ugly or really cool and different. I did not see one comment that said : meh, its ok. Well to me, its an awesome phone :P
everyone! dont buy a motorola phone i have a cliq and it took them a whole year to upgrade it to 2.1 (they havent updated it yet but they are soon (maybe) )
From the start of the video till 3:51 all you did was open and close the phone once. This is a video review and not a written review. You have to show to the viewer all the hardware functions and also show all interactions with the UI. Save all your talk for a written review on your blog John.
