My motorola is very fast. Fast in menu, and in taking photos. I'm sorry guys but I dont know why your motorola's are slow, maby it depends on ROM's. My rom is 09.
I got this phone and i love it but it have problems like it's Very Slow and sometimes you have to restart the phone juz' to make the sound producer a bet loud and clear, but as a phone i'm using it's cool....
I have this phone right now, and it takes exceptional photos. There is only one real drawback to the phone that I've noticed, but I'm not sure if it's exclusive to this phone. If you have a lot of multimedia on the phone, it reacts very slowly when you try to access that multimedia after disconnecting it form your computer. It has to refresh your media list, even if you haven't changed anything in relation to your media. All in all, I love the phone.
yes i also have the same problem, and sometimes the phone shows a screen saying that i should close applications for better performance and it's very slow. but i love the phone
great review! I agreed with most of the things you said. I have a G1, which I LOVE, but the only drawback is the sucky 3.0 camera. it's slow, has no video mode, and has to be held absolutely still in sunny conditions in order for a picture to turn out decent. I was considering either a ZINE or a BEHOLD, but I think I'm just gonna stick with my G1 and get a real camera lol
if u change ur G1 for this, u gain a camera, but lose everything else.
the navigation sucks, OS sucks, bluetooth need to be paired to transfer files, can't transfer music from computer, auto-restart by putting it on the table. keypad hurts, cant type by feel, some buttons too close, suck sms typing system( i still like nokia's one), microSD behind, got a stupid bump in front which makes it sound more like a shaver while vibrating. web browser suck,
1. bluetooth needs to be paired to transfer files - yup, thats what bluetooth is moron.
2. can't transfer music from computer - youre just a moron that doesnt know how to use a computer or a phone
3. auto-restart by putting it on table - i bet youre exaggerating, if not, you either dont take care of your phone, or, if its new, you should have taken it back
by the way g1 now has the video mode i you go to setting and update phone you will get the video you look for cause my phone automatically updated couple days ago.
All they need is advertising around the world...here in Australia the last commercial they did was for the Razr2 V8 in 2007.
They have many great phones such as Rokr E8,Moto U9,EM30 and so on. But not many people knows about these phones because they dont promote them not even in newspapers and magazines. Even mobiles phone shops in Australia dont have any motorola phones on display except V9 and V8.
motorola should scrap the razor version and go back to drawing board start new design they can do better job the thing is every new release of motorola nothing new just upgrade of extra pixel nothing much to offer serious they must relaunch their mobile or else follow siemens,benQ,panasonic
i havent touched my digi cam after this

Notice the big gaping hole in the back where the battery cover should fit better. Bad quality control. Otherwise a terrific product.

motorola needs to catch up quick
other companies are moving into 8 megapixel and full touch screen.
even lG Cookie looks more advanced than this phone.
