this phone is not great at all the performance is really bad i just got this phone 3 months ago i had it replaced because it would shut down on its on sometimes it would even turn on and now my new devour is starting to do the same thing i hate this highly recommend you don't get this phone
@likeewoahhh95 i wouldn't say disadvantages, but 2.1 is just a more updated version, which means that if you have 1.6, your missing on some maybe important features, making the android phone not be at its 'fullest', and i'm not completely sure, but i think the Devour is still on 1.6
@97soccerdude what the hell u dont pay for motoblur u pay for verizon motoblur is a operating system u are stuck in the 19 sentiry were noone knows what a phone is.well anyways no u dont pay for motoblur
god i want this f***ing phone!!! I dont know why but i like this phone better than the droid. looks better than it. but i dont much care for the name...kinda gay if you thnk about it XD
this phone is pretty good im thinking of getting this the droid or the nexus one when it comes out for verizon i just wish the droid had this keyboard i hate the droids keyboard
Anyone else notice the hilarious irony of the fact that a man working at Motorola and giving a demo of a Google android phone decided to show one of the features of it on his Macbook? Well, it could be worse. At least he didn't do that with a Windows powered phone :P
WE ALL KNOW ABOUT MOTOBLUR BY NOW!!! Unless these phones are getting the android 2.0 update stop showing the same features! it gets boring. focus on the new! (i.e phone design)
@eginny No lol, The worst part about this device is that it can play any of the highly graphic intensive game that are only running on droid or N1 currently. Why get this watered down phone?!
would anyone know how I can get the 2.0 on this phone, if so please post a reply or a response video. I know nothing about phone jargon, so please use every day language
just google search Motorola devour 2.0 rom or just go to theunlockr(dot)com and search the phone a link should come up with a video and it should show you how to do it
some of you guys are really stupid. Its not just about the phone itself, its about the fact that Verizon is now going to probably the best android lineup, and if you want motoblur, you can have it, sense, you can have it, vanilla andoid, you can have it. Once the n1 comes out for VZW, game set match.
@ thelaxplaya7I also want this on at&T. this phone is better looking than the crappy Backflip you guys put for AT&T. But Motorola you guys keep making ugly phones for AT&T, why? And you Make all nice pretty phones like this for Verizon.
Uhm, isn't it the other way around? That in the US, carriers only allow exclusive contracts for phones to be promoted on their networks? AT&T grabbed the one for the backflip, VZW grabbed the one for the Devour. At the end of the day, it is a crappy situation for the consumers and with the iPhone this crap started to come to Germany as well...
look at the size of that thing. They could easily make it look bad ass. Appearance is important, granted not as important as performance, but it shouldn't look like an elephant craped it out.
It is better looking than half of the sidekick series phones...
My point is, there is an extent to making design a true aspect in a purchase, some cross that extent and say it's a POS despite not looking past it's outside.
if it's unlocked, could it work with T-mobile SIM card?

Have they updated the phone to android 2.1? Or do they still sell it on 1.6?
If so, does having 1.6 instead of 2.1 have any disadvantages?
