  • I want to buy Motorola gleam. Where can I find it in cyprus?

  • Where can I get this phone

  • In some phones when you want to use the speed dial, you have to press a button before you press the number!! I want to buy it for my father and he wants the simplest way to use the speed dial. Please anyone can confirm this to me.

  • I had it yesterday. I luv flip phone and am looking for another phone which offers only basic function and long battery life so this Motorola Gleam+ suits my needs ^^ Basically it's easy to use however, I am still trying to figure out how I can transfer all my contact from Xperia to this phone. I've tried transferring them at once using bluetooth but it only transferred one contact >

  • Yeah whats the different?

  • How does the speed dial work? Is it when I press and hold a number on the dial pad will call the person?

  • Can you see number or contact name on outer screen?

  • I got quite sick of smartphones and wanted to return to a feature phone. Having used a Motorola V3 for four years sometime back, this phone was an obvious choice for me. I ordered it brand new on eBay for about USD$150 including shipping and it is really one of the easiest phones to use. Completely no fuss, just calling and messaging. Perfect.

  • where is this mobile available?

  • This is the best phone ever, love it love it love

  • when this mobile is available in india?

  • Several months ago, it was available at Erafone, but the versoon isn't Gleam+.

  • Where to buy this very beautiful phone in Indonesia?

  • how do i get to profiles

  • Change ringtones in profiles

  • How do I change the ringtone?

  • How do we enlarge the font on the names directory some old people need larger font,

  • when writing a text go to options -> input method options -> set t9 and select off.

  • how doi get rid of predictive text

  • What is the price at Indonesia?

  • Avoid this like the plague. The quickstart guide is for an infant, the full user-guide is nothing of the sort, and the Motorola support website is a farce. The phone might or might not be OK, but if you can't find out how to use it, it's next to useless.

  • How can i get this phone in Pakistan..? any body Help Plzzzz...

  • Whr i can get this ? In india

  • does its sms viewed as threaded messages or the messages are shown individually? hope someone can answer me thanks :)

  • it's available on Flipkart

  • No.

  • I have two simple questions. 1st is: when someone call you,can you see the name on the outscreen? And the 2nd: Is it have THEMES in the phone? Thank you

  • I have two simple questions. 1st is: when someone call you,can you see the name on the outscreen? And the 2nd: Is it have THEMES in the phone? Thank you

  • nope, only up to 16gb :)

  • Love very easy to use, best phone from Motorola, have facebook apps easy to see now, sick of small screens. Dont like touch phones, this is my smart phone.

  • What is the difference between this Motorola Gleam+ and the Motorola Gleam EX212 ?

  • Is it avilable in india

  • This is the best phone I bought so far. Just like the others, I got tired of the android phones, and I hate that I had to go through a lot of things before I can perform simple functions of a phone. With a keypad, everything is precise and smooth. I'm definitely going for this--real mobile phone. THe android functions anyway are in my macbook. What more to ask?

  • Sorry, I meant 32GB MicroSDHC.

  • Will this phone accept a 32GB SDHC?

  • Its an awesome phone. Obviously not for some young chaps. Its a professional kind of phone. Nice

  • amen!

  • take it easy fella. moto clamshell phones still looks neat for some, cludes me. peace out

  • When will launch at singapore? What is the price at singapore?

  • Hey, does it have a music player? And while listening to music, does the phone have to be opened? If not, how do you skip to the next song? Thanks...

  • smart

  • is this phone even be able sold globally?

  • Remember to always use maximum volume on the phone when using bluetooth, otherwise the volume will never get high on the bluetuooth headset, even if the headset is set to max volume, and you will suffer loss in audio quality.

  • neat looking phone, suit people who needs a real phone, not some "new generation" younger people who play lots of games

  • not loud enough in noisy enviroments even tune put on by bluetooth wasnt loud enough

  • New not always better. IMHO this phone has very good style. But, if you are "new generation" people, then nothing strange...

  • WTF! The era of this phone style end a year ago?! Can't you think Motorola a better hand held phones? crap!

  • No, this will not work in the USA. GSM 900 / 1800 are frequencies used by networks in Europe. In the USA, it's 850 and 1900. Won't work.

  • can you use this on usa network

  • can this phone be used in the USA. Will it work on At&t, Verizon, Sprint,or T-Mobile

  • i love all motorola phone because it provide always the best,strong staylish phone in the world but it is not avaible in tunisia!i hate nokia!

  • Can you see the caller identity on the flip cover?

  • Where do u live?is it available in India?Gow do i buy this ph?plz reply

  • I love every models of motorola. It's the best on the world.

  • Have been using this phone a week now and I have to say I don't like it at all, its really poor quality its build and materials are poor they feel weak no where near the same quality of the old RAZR handsets.

  • Why is this phone too expensive? I dont thinks it's going to have too much users because the price! there's so many phones better like this and cheaper.

  • when comming to pakistan waiting

  • great phone love it had a touch phone too sensitive, going to usa on hols want to take phone how do i get it to work over there?

  • Does it have automatic call recording?

  • guys is it available in India ...anywhere?????

  • Does this phone have light effects and smart dialing?

  • Received the phone today. The phone seems great- everything what I expected and even better (on pictures it looked little too glossy and fashy). First what focused my sight is very big keypad. If letters on it were as well big the phone would be perfect for seniors. For me the big keypad seems very comfortable and great, for some with smaller hands it might be a problem typing the distant keys. The system on it seems simple and easy- similar as it was on my nokia c3-01 with almost nothing unnecessary for simple everyday telephoning. TFT display is clear and big. I like the external display with the led type clock- didn't find yet a function to turn the clock on permanent but it would be useful. Don't know yet about the battery life but the written in specification 417h could be twice longer with this simplicity. One interesting thing is the "breath LED"- a pulsing soft LED light display where the "motorola" text is- if turned on it pulses when charging. I think it's completely unnecessary but looks cool. In total as I think it's simple and very comfortable phone.

  • Don't know where you seen 270 euros. The recommended price as i read is about 100 euros, I received it for 80 euros.

  • In Spain this phone costs about 90�. I think that the phone size is very large when it is open.

  • is the gleams price really this high? 270 euros?

  • Post your critics if it's good or bad, and when will this unit be here in the phils.

  • Post your critics if it's good or bad, and when will this unit be here in the phils.

  • tell me battery life is good or bad? thanks

  • Ordered from German ebay in 28.03.12. Have not yet received it but everything seems OK. Didn't find it in any motorola official sites but today (02.04.12.) it appeared in motorola.com German site.

  • Poor material quality, not recommended.

  • Get it from any online shopping sites

  • Check online shoppin sites gleam is available

  • When it will available in the market?plz plz inform me,,& can i get it at kolkata or other sides in India?plz reply...

  • dude where did u order it from ?????? Its no where to be found.

  • Already ordered! Ther's really nothing in market with such handy keyboard, thin, simple (without many unneeded functions) and not cheap look... searched and watched many phones! Only the battery could last much longer..

  • When will it release?

  • Why No 3G ??

  • Let see some vids on it, particularly text messaging on it. Any Alert light for incoming text??

  • No it does not...it will just show a symbol for incoming call or Msg ,whenever u get them..

  • does it display the caller's name or number on the external screen? because the first gleam didn't have that option and the idea of the flip phones are that u can see the callers name on the external screen and if u want to answer u just have to flip the phone and if u don't wanna answer u just press the volume button to hang up! please someone answer thanks! :D

  • when the heck is this phone is coming to the market....it seems like endless wait.

  • agree some people just want a phone, sexy think nice large screen, hope world wide release of Gleam+

  • This phone are for people who are fed up with touch-screens and brick-sized phones.

  • oh my gosh tht was exactly wht i was thnking

  • moto should really come out with a new razr - not another touchscreen, but flip and metal like the original razr!

  • if it only had Wi-Fi, nothing else... it would be A++ phone....

  • when available, probably maxmovil, antzup, the phone house, amazon, digital factory and so on...

  • the font is easier to read than the previous gleam

  • where can i buy in spain?

  • I think it's a nice phone but I do believe that Motorola should redesign Startac and give it a second life. That phone was a symbol, not this.

  • i like this phone..

  • realy nice im waiting for this phone

  • FINALLY!!!!! i have been sick of touch screen phone and "brick/box phone" nowadays... i want classic phone back!!!! thank you motorola.. I would definitely buy this!!!

  • is this a joke?

  • verry nice.

  • i like the motorola gleam phone very much im sick to the teeth of all these touch phones which i find horrible ugly they all look the same and they are too sensitive with these boring touchscreens this motorola looks good feels good and above all not a touch screen

  • this one looks good, if it has good telephony and a decent loudspeaker I'm getting one, also a review would be nice I'm bored with touchscreens

  • Very true

  • Why has Motorola released a flip phone in this generation when touch screens are a norm and possibly getting old too. Is this phone priced under 40 dollars. I think not.

  • this better noiceeeeee big screen !

  • is it released world wide?, convo view texting?

  • Yuck :p I just looked it up. The LG lollipop is really not a good looking phone :p IMO, the Gleam+ can appeal to both young and mature phone users. Still, my RAZR2 V8 beats them both in design :)

  • very nice model. i need this like the old v3 model.

  • motorola try to kill LG Lollipop 2, same specs, 2,8' display & LED on cover. but LG Lollipop still cutest phone ever ;)

  • I would like this one if it had less curves�

  • Hope this can come cheap. Love the design. Maybe a better battery should be considered with the next flipping phone. Android sucks and I got tired of ios, so willing to pick up a real phone~

  • perhaps moto would bring back to life the late razr V series but with android resurrection. this would be fun!

  • I think feature phones are still useful for younger uses or older uses who don't need all the advanced features.

  • i had the Motorola gleam and will definitely wait and but this one as well cause this phone is stylish. and to keep it simple "its classic style redefined". also all the latest smartphones are so boring rim ones in particular. cm on guys get a life u need something that looks sleek and classy in your hand rather having a soap bar to be honest

  • The latest high end flip phone by Motorola should be the MT810, being a "dual touch screen" (yes dual!) Android based phone! Too bad Moto only offered it in China and cost a fortune, around over UD$600, as it supported both CDMA and GSM.

  • this is just a low end phone. don't expect too much! this is a phone to be used as a phone and not as a camera or other multimedia device

  • Looks great, but I wish it had a bit better specs, my ancient V1075 had more features. Too bad Motorola made their flip phones low-entry only. I wonder if this was actually made by Motorola or just branded. Still, I like it.

  • Great looking and hope it will keep the price of the current gleam. This is a wonderful phone for those who actually use their phone as a phone. Real affordable phone, even more so than the ugly Doro phones. With large display and buttons, it should fit the use of both the very young, old and everyone in between that does not require high end smartphones.

  • I know Moto have had hard times, but if you want to go down the clam shell route (I think you watch too much vintage Star Trek!), why not produce a HIGH spec version? Something maybe with a Casio concept screen with insane dpi and something original like inbuilt projector or even a mini Evo 3d? Something unique Moto....what American design used to be about.....lost the plot Moto....sad.

  • True, but who wants one anymore?

  • Thought I was looking at a web page from 2006.....back to the future. Maybe Moto dug up their original V3 design and mistakenly sent it to China for manufacture?

  • nice 1

  • so sad no EDGE & 3G :(

  • The space bar key is still in the * button. I miss typing on they kind of keypad arrangement.

  • They should've made it with wifi! :((

  • Wonder what video record resolution is ? bet is rubbish qcif @10FPS.

  • wooooow ' nice phone ' moto did a good job ' hope it comes soooooon :)

  • my mom broke her moto u9 and i was wondering what to get her...yay....

  • hope this will philippines

  • i miss clampshell phone. they used to be loaded with features but now phone companies just come out with low end type like this one. no secondary camera, no flash for camera, no evrything! just a basic phone in a clampshell form.

  • Back to basic? Well, Moto produce world's best clam-shell phones!
