i have a problem in this phone.. i bought it but when i swich on it shows me an error in the screen its says unaccepted battery ... what can i do?i have 3 baterries .two BX50 and one BX40.. they dont work.. :/
@Jimas1991997 I had the SAME problem....I called Motorola about the issue, and they were of no help. What I have read is this issue is a problem with the software. I too bought another battery and dealt with the same problem. If you have better luck and do find out PLEASE let me know!!
I had a look at this phone yestarday. I couldn't make my decision to buy it. I wanted to buy it for my wife. She wants a 5 mp camera. I liked the camera, but think the software of other features are a bit slow.
Though the camera does the job fine, i would have a look today again and might buy it.
that means they dnt sell it on tmobile contract so every tmobile place near me they told me they makin a new motorola phone and stop sellin this phone
like couple months ago... ievery store near me i called they told me it's a gd phone but t mobile discontinued it and they have a new thing it's coming out soon by motorola called the cliq or suttn
does it record the video into its internal memory(if so how much memory does it have) or does it the have the option to record straight onto a microsd card??
This phone is great but not for everyone. If you text or spend all day talking on your phone, get a different phone. If you're like me and just want to everything in one device, this phone is perfect. I'm a pretty moderate text/phone user and this phone is fine for just that, moderate phone/text use. The camera and mp3 player on this is amazing! I have an iPod touch but honestly, I stopped using it since I got this phone. It's nice having everything in one device.
great fone but in truth its a lil slow on changing apps if ur a busy person u just dont always have time to wait til it gets done thinking, but otherwise its the best camera fone out there, the mp3 player is incredible, but it does need 3g
This phone SUCKS! Now on Zine #3, each one has been is awful! The first one was defective out of the box, couldn't recognize the memory card. 2nd one was ok for about 2 weeks then slow on texting, static calls, dropped calls. Now on number 3, won't pick up incoming calls if on another call, stays stuck on applications, really delayed resonse and just today it said my SIM card was invalid. Getting another Motorolla phone from TMobile, may change providers! Camera ok, Phone SUCKS!
that is just how my zine's have been. nothing but shit! im on my second one and both of mine like to turn off when i set them a hard surface such as a table. it is the most annoying thing. also this phone with tmobiles horrible service doesnt help it, i have so many dropped calls and texts that wont send. it shit dont buy it.
this phone is superb. i absolutely love it and its a great phone to text on. the mobile web works good and the screen is vivid and bright. the zoom on the camera is not good at all. if your taking a video or picture, your better off moving closer to the object than zooming cause even the smallest ZOOM in makes the picture blurry and pixelated. the call quality sounds slightly muffled and sometimes the phone randomly turns off by itself, rarely tho.
The camera zooming sound you hear is optical zoom, as compared to digital zoom on most other cameraphones. Optical zoom gets closer to the image without sacrificing quality, while digital does not. Optical zoom on a cameraphone is insane, and is the reason why this phone is miles beyond others.
Overall I love this phone it's worth the money it's like having a phone and digital camera in one it's really convenient all you do is slide the lens cover and the camera is ready to go! My phone also makes the zoom sound but it's normal trust me! My phone works great considering I have dropped it alot of times lol
i bought this for my dad and he fucking loves it cuz hes a photographer and the camcorder is fucking amazing its like recording REAL-TIME and its definitly the BEST CAMERA and CAMCORDER I've seen out there.
I just bought this camera today and I accidentally dropped it on carpet. Now whenever I open the camera lens cover I can hear the camera "zooming" on. I don't think I heard this before I dropped it. Does anyone hear any sound when you open the lens cover to activate the phone?
Now, its a week after your question but still there is no reply. Hopefully you've already get the answer. But if you dont, then try this :
1. Find a friend who have zn5 just like you.
2. If you dont have, then go to video site like youtube or metacafe, then find for moto zn5 vid, increase the volume until max, & listen if there is any voice like your case when the vid show open the lens scene.
thats ok, its actually made to do specifically that. this is called optical zoom, which is professional. before you dropped it, it should have done that too
Very nice video and understanding. On my website I have online texting for free to anyone. You can send multiple text messages in one click. just go to my profile to see.
I really don't like Moto's, but the pictures this thing can produce are far and away better than any other camera phone on the market. So sharp, it's scary!
The lg viewty is a much better phone than this...I just bought one on ebay for 249.99 and it also has a 5mp but it also has a full touch screen! YET THE VIEWTY
I been looking for a new phone to get lately. i was thinking of getting the HTC shadow, and then i discovered this, so now i'm looking into this. i don't know which one whould be the better pick though. could anybody help me out???
I've obbsessed over phones in the past. You get them and they're cool for a while, then they loose their luster. Just get a good phone like a Pear2 that's what I have.
...if anything my phone is faster than all my friend's. i have the razr2 v9, and it is basically as fast as it possibly could be. it's never slowed down on me AT ALL. I don't think it could be any faster. Lots of new moto phones are the same too.
This really deserves a relaunch
