Motorola PEBL U6 - User Reviews

  • The design interests me

  • if i want to purchase this shown model how can i go for it. please give me ur advice on purchasing this mobile.

  • if i want to purchase this shown model how can i go for it.

  • Please will someone explain to me simply, how to have a different ring tone. Ido not want to download any, just change to another on this phone. Here's hoping someone can. Thanks

  • Its 2014 and I still have and occasionally use the PEBL. I love having a tiny phone with a real keypad. I can listen to my voicemails and save delete or replay them by touch without ever needing to take the phone from my ear. The biggest disappointment is the lack of memory. go over 20 text messages and you have start to receive low memory warnings. I'm considering keeping this as my 'phone' and buying a data only deal for the times I want to use 'smartphone' features (satellite navigation is useful, games and social media type stuff I can live without on the move).

  • really that's great do you still have it???

  • Used to have this phone, it was quite cool and fashionable too

  • How can you say it only last 5 minutes?...it is a pretty nice mobile...your comment makes no sense!

  • Excellent phone. I have one since 2007, still working better than others in my country (Costa Rica).

  • Phone fabulous, comfortable, classic ... he was removed from production? Smartphones are hateful - turn in Ukraina motorola u6

  • Phone fabulous, comfortable, classic ... he was removed from production? Smartphones are hateful - turn in Ukraina motorola u6

  • I have one of these phones in green, although it's almost orange now! It's a great phone and has lasted me years, with the battery holding a good charge. It's easy to use and I love the small, compact design. A cool fashion accessory, Motorola have always been a pioneer in mobile phone design and innovation in my opinion.

  • Just got my pebl u6 best phone ever and I've had a few. I've used new Samsung new I phone and lots of Motorolas but to be honest they have just been binned love my phone. The feel is lovely the phone looks great and reception is perfect and it's 15 years old. Could Apple or Samsung do this not on your nelly.

  • I had this phone, until I left it on the bumper and ran over it with the car. It was AMAZING. Best phone i've ever had.

  • The motorola phones after years of use get a bad connection to the screen, which can give a blank screen

  • isn the GSM signall rubbish?

  • You can buy a new one on Ebay for £33.58. It is the genuine article.

  • ebay!

  • ebay has them new

  • I have one of this. Where you from?

  • I had this phone for years and recently broke it while hospitalized at Walter Reed. I can not find another one, if anyone knows where I can find one please let me know.

  • Where can I get another PEBL? I broke mine in rehab at Walter Reed and I am lost with out it! I have a Samsung Gravity now and I hate it, it was my wifes old phone!Someone please tell me where to find one thanks in advanced

  • i have used this phone for 3 years and i loved it.recently it just refused to switch on...i got another phone though i badly miss my phone.who has any idea on whats wrong with my phone

  • Hi Twirl, I have one which is as good as new, let's talk about how we can manage to communicate inorder to deliver the phone for you.

  • fantastic but what is the extendeble screen for i got it off my sister she never took it out the box but the oice commands are great

  • Why don't you check Ebay, but make sure it is a REAL Motorola not a knock off. I got mine off of Ebay and absolutely LOVE IT. It is the best phone I have ever had. I love the one hand flip option it does. After a while it does get a little dingy looking on it's color, but it is a great phone. I have dropped mine many of times and hasn't broke yet! (knock on wood) Would difiniatly recommend this phone to anyone.

  • I had this 'phone for 2 years and I can honestly say I have never loved a 'phone so much. Then the speaker failed:( I replaced it with a Sony Ericsson Jalou. This looks lovely but isn't a patch on my dearly beloved Pebl. I wish I could still get a Pebl.

  • I've had my bulletproof orange Pebl for, wow, 4 years now. Bought it unlocked (which was bad, as it was from singapore, and had to reprogram the languages as it defaulted to Simplified Chinese - which I don't speak!) as I needed a 4 frequency phone, it doesn't have a bunch of bells and whistles, but it has never (I mean NEVER) stopped working between 3 different simcard providers worldwide. The little outer display cracked (dropped it 4 stories, and that was the entire damage), Drowned it at least twice, and it keeps coming back for more. I live in areas where cellular coverage is spotty at best - this unit ALWAYS eeks out the tiniest signal. Oh yeah, it's the ONLY phone I can wear tucked IN my swimsuit top and I forget it's there - try THAT with a RAZR!!! The ONLY bad thing is eventually the soft plastic color coating gets dinged and looks scruffy - and the little magnet pads start to rust. Yeah, someday in the far future I'll need to replace it... but as long as I can find it, it will be another U6 Pebl. NOTHING compares to this phone.

  • why dont you use bluetooth for transfering the photos...

  • i have had this phone for 4 years now. It was very expensive, the memory is less than that of a person with amsesia, it turns off by its own, the alarm doesn't go on sometimes, the message inbox has gone crazy, blank screen is a common fact

  • I got the PEBL U6 in June 2007 I loved that phone but when it came to upgrading, was told T.Mobile didn't supply that phone any more. Wasn't happy at all. Anyway husband found that I could get the U9 through Orange so we moved to them, I do like the phone but not as much as the U6, anyway managed for just over a year then decided to get my U6 unlocked. And now happy to say I have my beloved phone back. It hasn't got the best battery life, but I have no problems with charging as always keep a spare charger in my bag also have a car charger. My only problem is I can't get software upgrade as USB doesn't seem to work, I would like to get my photo's off phone on to laptop, anyone got any idea's.

  • I got motorolla pebl and running windows 7 os on my pc, struggling to find software. Please help me

  • This phone is bullet proof! I have even dropped mine in seawater, and there is rust on the casing, and it is still working. Camera is dated now.

  • i love my phone but am having a problem to get on the internet please help [email protected] desperate

  • I have had this phone for over 2 years. It's still working like new. No problems at all.

  • This is the worst phone in the world . It throws a hissy fit every 5 minutes , the battery only lasts five minutes and some times it refuses to work at all . I had a Siemens phone before it and it`s still going strong after nearly 9 years! Do not buy Motorola u6 if you want a working phone!

  • I've had the phone for quite a few years now and I have to say it worked perfectly fine, I didn't use it much for texting or pics, or any storage really, just calling, and it worked amazingly, but a few weeks ago it started acting up, it would restart on it's own, and die when the battery wasn't even low, and now a few days ago it finally gave in and now both screens are blank, I have dropped it a number of times, but none to harsh, unless something got loose inside (very probable), the phone still works, you can dial, but you can't see who's calling you, the sound works as well. I think this is the same problem as your phone was LoobyLou. So the phone was worth it, but it was time to get a new one now.

  • Nice to look at and nice to hold but, probably the worst phone in the whole world. Do not argue with me as you know I am right..

  • Had one for two years - screen is now totally blank. Battery life is good - value for money? NO

  • Does anybody know the game from these phones it a shooting game with beavers or something? I think it's crazy something but not totally sure. If anybody knows the game would love the name thanks.

  • It hasn't the PTT feature.

  • It hasn't the PTT(Push to Talk) feature.

  • I love this phone! I had the black U6 for almost a year and it never failed on me. Unfortunately got stole... I love the desing, it looks sexy, elegant and supermassive! Very good batery life! Has low memory and no card slot but it does the job and it does it right! I saw the white version and it looks way cool! For me.. The best phone I ever had! I'll buy it again!

  • I bought the phone and the screen stopped working. I bought another one and the screen stopped working. Motorola will not help with this problem. It's expensive and not worth the trouble.

  • Is the best phone I have ever, i`m so sad cause in 2 years it never fail me. I used it like my gameboy cause i have on it a lot of games.

  • Hi, Any body give me a web page there have TCF Format thems because I want to expand my Moto PEBL U6 Memory Moto PEBL U6 have 2GB Expandable memory r u want to expand pebl u6 memory now u instal a TCF thems and one by one delete now your phone total space is expand.

  • The phone is great, mine has been dropped lots of times but still works... the bad thing: same software as motorazr and low memory... but ggod phone anyway.

  • very cool phone, had it for three years until it got stolen, don't blame the thieves, the phone is tight.

  • used phone for 3 year till the speaker blew.it was a very sturdy phone,my baby even played with it most of the time but still it survived.i was heartbroken when it broke,would love to buy another of the same because i had to change 3 touchscreens in a gap of 5 months due to broken screens.love it for its looks and functionality and sturdiness.

  • I had this phone for a year until I switched carriers and had to switch phones. It was too bad because I loved this phone. The look is sexy and the battery life is amazing. The Motorola I have now probably has half the battery life of this phone! The features are ok, my favorite thing is probably the built-in alarm clock. The phone attracts fingerprints though. Overall, great phone considering it was released in 2005. I'd still use it again today and it is better than many other phones out there.

  • my boyfriend and I both bought this phone and after about a year and a half the screens on BOTH phones are not working anymore. i think this model has a serious problem with the screen. wouldn't buy it again.

  • does anyone no how to get the screen back working on this phone

  • i think the phone is awesome and i can't get into web either. love the color. camera really good. well, there is no memory card place, does anybodey know where it is? anyway the phone is pretty cool!!

  • i've had the phone for almost a year now.. it's so cool..easy-grip, love the screen, etc.. it's so strong.. =)

  • Anybody knows how to download files from Windows Vista? Thanks

  • I love this phone. Had it over 2 yrs. No problems as of yet. Had my share of accidents with phone falling apart but simply replace everything and it's still works. It's STRONG and DURABLE. Texting is so easy. Awesome grip on it. I LOVE IT. I just wonder why T Mobile no longer offers this cell. The only thing I can think of is because of it's durability they won't be able to make any money if everyone buys it because it'll last what seems as forever. I won't hesitate one bit to purchase another one if need be.

  • Mine simply cant be used to surf the internet yet the screen has such a lovely display!

  • The phone goes off on its own. you are offline and so people cant get you when necessary. assist. +254 721 608 632

  • great fone nice shape i love it.but small memory space.mine has a screen problem now. cant see my contacts.pls increase the memory space & improve on d screen

  • Hola! soy de Guatemala y la verdad, este telefono en vez de facilitarme la vida, me la ha complicado mas. Desde que lo compre, he tenido problemas con el. Ha estado en reparacion 5 veces y ahora lo tengo que cambiar, pues el ultimo problema que fue que el auricular no funciona, me cuesta US$.87 (casi el precio del telefono en mi pais) repararlo. Para mantener a un telefono que les hara imposible la vida, mejor les recomiendo comprarse otro.

  • yeah same problem here. i got the phone a little less then 2 years ago and now the screen wont work. Phone is very cool, looks good, but quality is sub to the design. I don't think i would recommend this phone unless of course style is your only criteria. O well, time to get an iPhone! -s

  • easy...you have to repair it...go to the store you buy it, ask for the warranty

  • worst memory...gets dirty very easy worst bad materials sound great shape great design...buy dont buy it!

  • I have problem with the Motorola PEBL U6... The tiny screen of the phone is not working... It doesn't respond... its like its not there... :'( What should i do?

  • This is a cute and smart phone! If you are unsure what to buy, go for the pebl! I have had this phone for two years and I love it.

  • I am buying this phone but I am now a little worried about the screen size. Is it that small? Can someone compare it with another phones screen as I can not find the pebl in any stores to go and look at. Thanks

  • Is it possible to delete the ringtones the phone comes with i really want some type of music on t and i hav no more space and ould like to erase the ringtones/audio i refuse to use to someone HELP! :(

  • I LOVE this phone!!

  • The phone is great but the batttery I got with it is horrendous.It cant last a day.

  • I don't understand all the people that complaint about this phone... First of all... If you complaint because you can only uplaod one song... IT'S BECAUSE IT'S NOT A MP3 PLAYER PHONE!!!! If you want one you should think about the rckr or some sony ericcson phone... If you thought it was and you bought this phone thinking about it was an mp3 player... that's because you didn't read the specifications... Now... the memory is 5mb just because is for internal use, upload 4 or 5 ringtones and take some pictures that you'll download after to the computer (that's why the phone comes with the usb cable... to plug it to the computer!!) It's clearly not a multimedia phone, it was never meant to be!! It's just a regular phone, with a regular camera that support MP3 RINGTONES... THAT'S ALL! I had this phone for about 2 years now and believe me... it's one of the strongest phones ever. It's all metal, even the keypad!! The keys won't crack! The shell won't crack! The reception is great and the way it opens... is heaven! It opens just with one touch without sticking your finger between the screen ant the keypad, so you won't scratch it with your nails! I dropped it a few times and it's still working! This is one of the strongest, reliable and best designed phone I've ever had! If your looking for a multimedia phone (mp3 and/or pictures) I suggest you not to buy this phone, but... if you're looking for a great, reliable, won't-broke-phone to send sms, mms, talk and set up the alarm to wake up, THIS IS THE ONE!!

  • the phone is ok but it lacks one imporant feature,the radio kindly think about it and give afeedback

  • I've had this phone for about a year and a half now. I loved it at first, and its still in great condition, even after a few drops. I cracked the front screen, but that still works as well. The reception left me wanting more, but it was good enough. The only real problem I'm having with it now, is when I'm calling someone, I can't hear anything. No ringing or anything. It used to do that just for a few seconds I wouldn't hear the ringing of the person I was trying to call, but I could always hear after I was connected. This wasn't a constant problem, just probably once out of every 10 calls or so. But about 3 days ago I think the speaker died. I'll make call, and I don't hear anything when it says "Connecting".. which is annoying but tolerable. And now even after it says "Connected" I hear nothing... I'm not sure if its the phone itself, or if its just getting old, or what the problem is. But up until this past weekend, I loved it!

  • I have had this since july of 07 and I still have it. It has had quite a few problems thought.The front LCD screen cracked and I had to replace the inside screen multiple times because of scratches. I have to take it apart about once a month and remove the dust out of both the screens. Plus the magnets that keep it closed are grinding down so its starting not to close.

  • Yes; I've had display issues. My display disappeared this morning. Anyone else have this problem? Now I can't see if I have missed calls/texts without flipping the phone open. I don't like how little memory this phone has. Otherwise, no qualms; it's a good phone. Gets a lot of attention, too!

  • We got a black Pebl in February 08' and the screen won't work now. Anyone else having problems with it?

  • i have this phone and it does have 60 received and 60 dialed calls

  • Don't believe all the whiney babies who complain about this phone. I know 2 others with this phone and they appreciate how reliable this phone has been for them too.it is a great phone those who say not don't have any sort of taste

  • i have had this phone for almost three years now and its still in perfect condition after many many drops and falls Motorola i give you a heads up

  • I have this phone the information provided is incorrect. The call log information is incorrect. The phone does in fact remember 20 dialed, 20 received/missed calls

  • i need to know how many time can i recorder audio with the pebl u6, please... And what is the quality of the audio and format?...thanks!.....

  • This phone is still going strong after 2 years. Reception is very strong, sound quality is basically as good as a landline, the battery is still keeping its charge after 223:11:20 hours of talk time use. The keypad still works 100% after tons of dialing and texting. My phone has fallen on ceramic tiles, in my driveway, off of my night table and there has never been a moment where the phone suffered from this. Yes this phone has 5MB of internal memory but I'm able to hold plenty of 128kb .MP3 ringtones that I cut myself. This was never meant to be a music phone. I have never regreted buying this phone. As for the menu, I really believe Motorola has the clearest and easiest menus around. Everything makes sense. Don't believe all the whiney babies who complain about this phone. I know 2 others with this phone and they appreciate how reliable this phone has been for them too.

  • i have used this phone for about 2 years now, it is not bad for just calling and texting. but i started to use it for buisness and stuff, i tried putting music on it. and it couldnt hold a 2 min song!!! Try the Nokia 5310 XpressMusic.

  • After reading all the comments, I still want it, and I'm going to buy it now!!! I love the look and I dont really need that much memory!

  • I Miss my Motorola V360 Since I got this pebl i had tons of memory problems my outer screen is wrecked all because i dropped it once this phone is really bad it sucks i would rather have a Motorola RAZR lol

  • OMG!! there is NO memory on this phone and no place to put a memory card!! i can't wait to get a new phone!

  • Does this phone display a call timer during the call? So I can know how long I've been talking. I don't want to know after the call ends but during the call. Thanks

  • i don't like it!!!it's awfult...the memory...everything!!!

  • My mom is going to buy this phone because in my country is so cheap (90 US new) but I want to know: Does this phone worth that price?? Is it good for the basic functions (calls, sms and some pics)??. thanks in advance

  • this phone works good .i had it 6 months now ,its a great phone but the only thing is that the memory sucks i had a song with like 3 megs and it almost filled the memory.if you use your phone for music or videos i recomend the i phone or rokr z6 ~SvRs~

  • Ok so I got this phone,...black edition.The phone is super great!The desing and the quality is superb!It is all in metal,notkinh plastic so it is wery good when you drop it or something.You cannot scrach the surface of the mask because the metal is all covered in black rubber!About the software...when I got it the software was from the gsm provider...so i flashed it,changet the FW,...put my MP and LP,did some skinning..and now the mobile is super great,super fast,stabile,never crashes,the camera is better,..it is actually a different phone now that I modded it! I recomend this mobile phone to everyone that do not need a phone for MP3 and camera! SUPER GREAT PHONE!

  • this phone is GARBAGE! i have had it for a over a year and it has been giving me problems for almost the entire time i've had it. it turns off by itself, it has this HORRIBLE reception that keeps buzzing and sometimes it's so loud the person that i'm talking to can't even hear me! do not buy this phone, it's old now anyways!

  • Well,..dont know what to say about this phone.Actually,I am getting it tomorrow,..The reason I am buying it is because I need a good mobile phone,that is actually,..a mobile phone.Dont get me wrong,..I had a motorola z3,motorola z6,sony erisccon K800I,...so I know what a good mobile phone is,..but after some time,I realised that all those expencive mobile phones I have,..well,..I olny use them for sms,calling,and an alarm clock.And thats that,..so I asked my selfe whay in the world do I need a mobile phone for 3000Kn[420Euros]?And every time I got an expencive mobile phone I would always lost it,or someone would steal it,or I would brake it.From now on I olny buy mobile phones that are good looking,can send sms and make phone calls,....because thats what mobile phones are.If I want to listen to mp3 I have a mp4 player,...anyway,whay I want to buy this mobile phone?It has a usb,...and you all know how cheap is when a motorolas pc connection cable gets broke,...it is really good looking,and the quality is amasing.You cannot see that until you take it in your hands.Im going to get a orange one or a green one. So ill write something tommorow about it.

  • i had this phone secon hand its great nice style and goog camera and easy to use the only thing that lets it down is the memory but still a great phone

  • I'm a reviewer and got sent this Engineering Sample well over a year ago, and I must say its tough as old boots. Yes I prefered the styling of the KRZR and RIZR when I had them, but this thing has survived falling off of scaffolding, several flying moments onto concrete. It has brick dust and mortar in it and endless scratches. One things that seems to endear me to the phone over all others is the opening system. I've sat for hours playing with it! Simply and honestly its a simple, perfect phone that is only really let down by the pitifull internal memory. The VGA camera is a bit dated, and the screen looks a bit '2004' but I use it as a phone. SMS-ing and calling and for that, its perfect.

  • My wife is on to her third pebl in less than 8 months and this one has the same problem as the other ones where no sound can be heard through the earpiece. Maybe green is a bad colour to get

  • This phone was quite a good phone. I had a Lg chocolate, it broke down so i got this one instead. I remember that the camera is very good & that the txt messaging was awesome! I love the exterior design, very nice. what kills it its the inside..

  • I love this phone, had it for almost a year and not a problem. This phone been through so much I can believe it still works.

  • I have had this phone for less than a year and it has given me so may problems. This is my second phone and I am experiencing worse problems. The phone shuts off on its own, i miss calls constantly. Its terrible. It doesn't recharge properly..Totally disappointed.

  • I've had to replace my pebl 4 times for the same thing in the past year. After about to months of use it stats to do weird things (such slit screens,turn off on its own, and some times deletes my rcv. or sent calls. This is by far the worst phone motorola has made!!!!

  • ive had this phone for like not even a month but im really dissapointed about there not being a memory card slot. i never used to be a big music fan since none of my other phones even had bluetooth but now that this one does i want to use it to the max. with there was more memoryyyyy

  • I love the look of this phone, but because I know someone that owns it I cannot get it. awww

  • I have this phone for I dont know how many months now and I dont have any problems at all. for people who like to add stuff and music to there phone this is not for them. people like me who love phone as a simple phone. its perfect.

  • for people who are saying when the want to send pic. via bluetooth it gives them option move and not send. while there is another option that says copy. use that and the pic. will not be removed from your phone.

  • again i hav come up with a prob i cannot c if i hav got a mis cal i hav to go to d received menu n check if there was a mis cal its irritating earliar it used to indicate the mis cal but now i find it difficult to to operate it

  • I'm sorry but i've had it for about 2 years now...i can never hear the ring even when it's on the highest level- iget my calls when it goes to voicemail. Sometimes it doesn't ring! & when i try to navigate thru it gets confused and is so slow and sometimes it gets stuck and i have to turn it off and on again. sucks

  • i hav thi s phone frm abt 1 yr i hav a strange prob pls if any1 can help me in my photos i hav move option n not send but wen i move the photo to others through bluetooth the same photo gets deleted frm my photo collection i donno y this is happening im fedup of this n also the bluetooth is pathetic pls help me if any1 can

  • its just that the memory sucks and now my screen goes blank evry time i touch it and i have to close the phone and open it back lol probly cuz i dropped it so many times lol

  • well i have this mobile in the color blue i really like it but 1 thing is wrong the memory is build in the mobile and its toooooo low

  • battery life on this fone is terrible, forever charging it up.

  • i have dis phone and i think that its realy stylish apart from the memory this phone is awsome

  • ma pal has dis nd i think its sound. i think da pink version is reallly cute! i dont kno why i didnt get it cos it has a reallly kwl design - and soft 2 touch! lol!

  • it's a great phone..but it needs a memory card..

  • Wicked. It looks great, so compact, plus i guess a reasonable price. love it, anyone who doesn't, then its clearly not the phone 4 u, how about returning it? duh. lol. PEBL always

  • this is a very cute cell phone. My samsung E370 got stolen so for a replasement this a good phone for now. The memory is poor but that just forces me not to dowload so many useless stuff. This is not a insult to the public because it is a sexy phone and alotlike the V360 exept for the memory!! just needs a memory slot for a big memory card. SO UPGRADE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • this phone is very nice good features..........but my display went after 7 months....dissapointed really like the phone

  • Ppl are saying it doesnt have enough memory, but not every phone is gonna come with alot of memory bcaus not everyone needs it. If memory is important for u, then buy a phone with expandable memory and leave this one for the ppl who dont need alot of memory. Not too long ago, 5mb of memory would have been alot.

  • this phone has been out for a while now its a real nice phone and i love the features it have on it but could you tell me when would the price on this phone drop its been one price to long and right now it really don't worth that amount of money you guys needs to drop the price on this phone there's alot of phone out there and hardly anyone is buying this phone because the price on it is not drop at least take off $100.00 off the phone or something nah good bless

  • i got this phone as a present and i thank u for your services but coment is that it has a small storage capacity pliz widen it in the new one and pliz provide space for a memory card as well. other wise tahnx alot i rili luv this hala cos my boyfi bought it for me.

  • Really, I only wanted the phone because it looked nice. My dad was in two minds about getting it, for when I bought it, it was quite expensive for what it was. For the money, it should have a much better camera, the memory, quite honestly is a load of c**p and the video captures are horrible and blurry. I had to ge tmy original one replace after a week as the speakers broke. The key pad is quite good as it is flat, and thank god nothing is touch screen, as things like that annoy me. I thought the way the PEBL opened in very unique but i'm very protective of it and barely ever let people touch it other than myself as it is so flipping fragile. I've had the phone just about a year and the screen and keypad are quite badly scratched, aannddd due to the way the phone is coated, you can see hand marks and everything whenever you touch it so i'm constantly wiping it to make it look decent again. Overall, unless you don't want to waste money on something that looks nice but isn't really that great, don't bother ^_^.

  • I bought this phone unlocked and have used it hard! I definitely would recommend it for bang for the buck...

  • I shoulda gotten a Nokia, what a waste of $100 PLUS a 2 year contract. These phones are so crappy that less than 6 months after I bought it, T-Mobile wiped them off their site. Waiting for a Sony Ericsson phone model to come out to replace this. It never actually broke down on me or gave me issues...but the phone book sucks, memory is miniscule (I dont even bother putting songs on it), gets dirty ALL the time, constantly have to wipe it.

  • i had the pebl for about 4 months it nice in size but poor in memory an then something went wrong wit the lcd i cud not open to wide if not it wud cut out in to a white screen i wud not advice no one to buy this fone an to stick with nokia

  • Pebl is a really cute phone. It has lots of features but of course the memory is less. Those of you who own it may not be knowing about what else can you do with it and so i suggest that all should take a look at www.modmymoto.com

  • i love how cute this phone is but it does not last long i only had mine for three weeks before the the keypad died on me!! i do not sugjest getting this phone!!!

  • PEBL is a really cute phone...too bad has poor memory and i only have like 4 songs and a couple of pics and thats it!! i even had to delete games to gain some more space to have pics... well, the pics are not bad but the video, god! is terrible.. there are better phones than this one! i have it since i donno november and my real and only dissapointment has been that i cant have all the photos i want. beside! no cable :S jum.. there's no money to buy that cable xD jeje

  • the PEBL is not a gd phone...it hardly has any memory and after a while the keypad stops working..it's stylish but i wouldn't recommend the phone

  • When I first saw that PEBL U6 it really impressed me.But after using it, i noticed that i can only download 3 songs which could got me very frustrated.Not impressesd with the features usuallly cuts off.

  • Robust ergonomically designed phone. Hinge will deteriorate if swung open to hard. Fingerprint magnet on the keypad. Charger port located on top of phone(inconvenient). Camera decent but not great(videos same). Otherwise a very nice phone from Motorola.

  • I've had this phone for just under a year, at first I loved it. It had a unique design and keypad but that is all it has goin for it. The camera is sh** and the video is worse, battery life is good, memory is bad, I can have up 2 3 songs or 3 pictures and thats it. Overall a crap phone, I'm happy I didn't buy it, my sister got it on contract and gave it me so free. If it wasn't I would have cried !!

  • i just loved the phone i think its cool and nice since ive had mine ive not had one problem with it i will recomend it to anyone that not fussy

  • Just bought one for my mom. Upgraded her from the c650. She loves it.

  • I bought one and it does not have push to talk. Don"t they all have?

  • :P I had to read some opinions about this phone before i bought it:) Design is quite nice and really attractive,the phone fits in hand very well,its really pleasant to held it in hand, until u have to open it and use it,when u face that the advantges of this phone ENDED! The opening mechanizm is really annoying ,the auto flip up is to powerfull,it sometimes made the phone drop from the hand,if u will wear the necklace wrist u notice that the phone opens accidently very often,it is really annoying!Stupid motorola menu and so on,for daily use this phone is real s*it,buy it but dont use it,couse u gonna dissapoint:)I bouht it for work in dusty conditions i hope it crush this one soon and i have to buy other "workphone" :)

  • I have seen other opinions on it and I have the phone myself, it is a good phone for ladies, although the memory is bad. It's small and sexy and not for the obsessive downloaders....

  • this phone is really bad, no memory, only fits about 1 song on it!1 but easy to use, would not reccomend

  • basically, this phone is terrible. the camera and video are mediocre at best, the memory is only 5MB, and since it auto flips open via springs, it can wear out after a while. also, the outside is VERY easily scratched and damaged. only thing good is its looks which doesnt even impress some people. dont guy, crap phone.

  • consa, i really wouldn't advise u to purchase this handset. It has less memory, and the flip can easily break. The pro about the phone is its sleek design. That's what i only find cool about it.

  • Could someone plz email me and tell me what this fone is like? i may buy it!

  • I'm really disappointed with this phone,not with the looks it's beautiful and unique.The moment i saw it i just thought it was amazing that excitment died the moment i found out that as we must all know, the memory is sh!#@.I've checked, not upgradabile. motorola must do somthing about that.And no, not release another improved model like they always do that is an insult to us the public& customers.They've dOne it before with the L6.

  • If u want to install java applications on your phone, try using motomidman (Motorola Midlets Manager). It can be found on the site www.modmymoto.com. If u want skins, and music players. It can be found on the site also. Enjoy.

  • This phone is dreadful. Mine keeps turning itself off, you have service bars but no service and it is on emergency calls the majority of the time. Memory is far too small and not user friendly at all

  • To lirissa, My pebl has just done the same thing except i cant receive. My calls are the same-can't use. I sometimes have signal but can't use it. My best advice is take it to your local carphone warhouse or your network shop and see what they can do. If you hvae unlocked it recently that might be why, same as mine .

  • this phone is really cool and i will advice anyone to buy it

  • text has locked up can recieve but not send any ideas please

  • at least the w300 has upgradeable memory and plays mp3 this phone does not even come with usb cable thats more money tos pend

  • hi, I have aa question, I wanto to buy de u6 but the executive model so i need to know if it has an aditional memory or not. please if someone knows answer me soon. thank u!!!!

  • the phone looks kul wen u open it bt the memory sucks!!!!!!

  • i had this fone 4 3 months but then i changed it 4 a se w300....which do yall think is better

  • hey, the man that likes c, tell your friend to read the manual, for dumb people, dumb phones (the pebl is not the case). Of course that memory can not be expanded, guess waht, doesn't have card reader!!! Warranty never covers physical damage, NEVER, if u use bad your phone, you pay it (obvious). There are 4 other colours, bluettoth can't be upgraded in any other phone (I don't even understand what you want to say with that!) and yes, it have handsfree! Got a green one some days ago as a second phone, and his wonderfull, I like it so much that I almoust doesn't use my smartphone anymore! Obeymoto is great, use it is a pleasure, great great looks, a head turner, small, good battery life, nice display (could be bigger), the UI is nice (tipycal from motorola) but could be better, basicly, the perfect second phone, got all I need with style

  • why bother with this my friend traveled to the united states where main motorola headquarters are, only to be told the memory can not be expanded, mp3's can only be put on there with their original memory size, there is no warranty on the phone if it breaks within 2 years, there are no other colors, bluetooth can not be upgraded to other versions, there is no handsfree capability and the phone completely is stupid 2/10 i like the swish opening LOL

  • crappy phone.bad camera, very ugly looks like a soap or a river stone and the keypad is too creap, small screen, bad memory, no 3G or edge or something for good network, just bad. (Its my opinion, if it covers ur needs its ok, but in my case it SUCKS)

  • No FM Radio no.

  • The phone is great,...As far as i know it only has one bad thing...the memory, 5mb is nothing..You can only set 1 song on it.And no card slot!If there wouldnt be alot of posting rules you would probably have seen alot inpolite text right here...

  • You would think for a nice phone it would have more memory, can motorola do something about that ..... to upgrade the memory or something

  • This phone Have FM Radio?.

  • Hi Rocket Queen! U said u wanted to get this phone again but it's not available on your network! Well u could always buy it and get it unlocked! Then it would work on any network u wanted it to!

  • cute and snazzy little mobile

  • Had this phone for about one year now. Love the look and the feel. As a phone it is great! Web access? More than frustrating. Have given up. Tried everything. Anyone out there had much success?

  • Nice phone but unable to connect to the web. Can anyone tell me what I need to change as far as settings?

  • the memory is a bit disappointing...

  • I love this phone! I've had it since September. But having to get a new phone because I broke it (out of anger) I've not had a problem with it. I love the front display, and how it never goes off completely (unlike some other phones)And I just love it. I'd actually consider buying this phone again... but I can't cos they don't have it on my network anymore! :(

  • Hi every body! I have it & it hasn't my special language "Farsi". I need this language. Can any one give true guide? [email protected]

  • u can get htis phone from fido for 25 dollars canadian for a 3 year contract

  • it is simple to open this phone u just have to GENTLY pull down on the front and it flips open by itself

  • I love these phone because everyone looks for me just to slide it it is so fun i'd made a lot of friends! I also like it because it falls and it dosent happen anything to it, and it is so easy to open I don't have to make a big deal just to open it!The bad thing is that it has got less memory than an ant, I want to expand it but I cant!!! It is so frustrating!!!!

  • is ita good idea to buy this phone?

  • is there any way to increase the memory on this phone or maybe a way to compress mp3s so that more than ONE can be on this phone please i am desperate for any such info...

  • Does this phone have speaker phone?

  • handsoap... not cool at all... it basically a v3 but heavier and bulkier with a crappier screen... bad bad

  • I drop my phone many times a week, but nothing's gone wrong with it yet. I've dropped it on gravel, road, cement, but not in the toilet yet. It always flips open when it hits the ground but no damages so far! Some dents, but barely noticeable. Love the phone.

  • I've had this phone almost 6 months and I still love it. I'm just as attracted to it as I was when I first saw it and I think it's worth the money. All my friends love the one handed flip feature and often steal my PEBL just to do that. Colors are kind of over the top, just get a black one and change the faceplate. The screen rubs on some of the raised buttons because of the sliding feature but you can buy new screen covers for cheap. I love my PEBL, it never leaves my sight.

  • i had this phone for 7 months.its look is really fantastic but now i have software problems and the battery is flat every 2 days.need to charge it too often.

  • is the pebl good couse i want the pink 1. how much memory does it actually have ??

  • The phone at the price but the memory is too short if there is any I can expand please let me know.

  • i love this phone can i have one please.....please....please..

  • I recently bought this phone for my girl. She charged it and everything worked fine until she got her first voicemail. She cleared the VM and the icon refuses to go away. You have to turn it off and back on to get rid of it. Can anyone give any suggestions? [email protected]

  • You can't get more memory. You only get 5MB.

  • how do i get mmore memory?

  • How do you get more memory?

  • the phone is easy to use!

  • Vodafone are currently selling this device for �60 in store....cheeeeeeeeeep

  • Does someone know if there is a way you can get extra memory space. Do they sell it separately (if so, how much is it?)

  • imho, the best colour is black. The other colours just make it look like... a soap bar!

  • whats the best colour of pebl?

  • I like it i own one and the way you open it is awesome and uniquw but after about 2 weeks it loses its design the memory is pretty low with texts you can only hold about 30 but its pretty much a fat 60% razr its a good phone 8/10

  • Do you need to know how to change it from digital to analog...or to change the actual time?

  • Cn someone PLEASE tell me how to change the clock?

  • This phone was ok before my son dropped it, it totally damaged the outside display, i wouldnt recommend it, memory extremely low and its easily damaged.

  • Hi guys, just got the phone seems ok until now. Just charged the phone till it says full about 8hrs+. Then i take the charger out for 1 sec and charge again and still it says charing wis it normal?Or is this just a new battery.

  • its a great phone and has a long lasting battery life the only problem is the herendous memory

  • the motorola is a great phone it has a fantastic battery life but the only problem with it that it has rubbish memory but its really good.if you consider buying this then you should its great!!

  • it is a reliable phone which one can use at anytime .i will recomend it for anyone who wants the best for him selfor herself

  • thank you for posting how to change the clock! it was driving me mad too!

  • As everybody else said about this phone its really great, but the only problem is not enough memory �. You should buy it

  • Once again the 5MB is only for ringtones and pictures. When using the Mobile phonetools, you can cut any part of a song you want as a ringtone. Right there you're creating a file that's MAX 400kb if you don't make the whole song a ringtone (the phone only rings for little over 20 secs. The Pebl also has an amazingly sharp screen with a nice sounding ringer speaker. Battery life is VERY good too there's no question about it. I'd explain how to make an amazing sounding ringtone by partially avoiding mobile phonetools. But it's a bit long. I'll do it if some of you are interested.

  • i bought mOto pebl 5months ago and still working well.the problem here is not enough memory on the phone and the keys are fainting.The phone is still the best in all motorola products.i have it in black,ITS REALLY STYLISH AND RUGGED.GO GET YOURS NOW

  • This phone is sooooo cool!!!! I have it in white, i got it from argos 4 �79.99 on T-Mobile. The 262k TFT is really good. The camera is ok, not the best but not the worse. It don't matter about the memory because ppl who want a phone for memory can go a phone with lots of memory. This is a phone 4 ppl who want 2 keep up into the trend. Its Brilliant!!!!!!! Go buy it from argos!!!!!!!

  • I have this mobile phone, it's so pretty but it doesn't have enough memory to save my favorite songs! And the battery goes low in 2 or 3 days! I think Motorola is not the best because of it, and my cell phone doesn't work very well, all the time it turns off... It's a really mess!!!

  • I bought the PEBL in green the day it came out, and i was skeptical about it since the RAZR was a horrible phone...but ive had it for about 6 months now and i love it! absolutely great phone!!!

  • I agree .. the pebl is a superb design and unlike so many other phones has a true sense of quality. Just look at that serious metal hinge ..now THAT is cool engineering. I have had no probs at all with this little masterpiece. Only thing.. if you have a big thumb it could be tricky.

  • Hey. I recently got this phone and when trying to transfer the text messages from my other phone [a total of 50], it only got 10 of them transfered, and then said that it's memory was full...I don't really understand this and if any of you know what the problem might be, please send me an e-mail ASAP @ [email protected] Thanks!

  • My boyfriend recently bought this phone for me and it is by far the best phonbe I have ever owned and I have owned over 20. It is so simple to use, light and feminine (in the pink any way). The memory is a bi small at only 5mb which can only hold a 20 pictures and maybe 3 songs if you're lucky. It doesn't crash or freeze like other phone and the buttons are so easy to use. The backlight when in the dark is a little faint but you can still make out the numbers with the lines being more prominant. It has a really smart way to open it too hard to explain but it's so addictive and cool looking. The callers name appears on the front display when incoming call and the sound is perfect. The camera is wonderful although it is less than a 1.3 that is more common these days, it is of fantasic quality. Also the signal is great. I really do recommend this phone for people who would rather call and text than use there phone to listen to music - you want music i recommend the sony ericsson w300i. BUY IT NOW - you won't be disappointed!!!!

  • Well my boyfriend barely bought me A PEBL yesterday i tried to install the software but i think it didnt work can somebody please wright to me to help me install it thank u

  • ahah we have some light phone users here.. SE walkmans all the way.. I got past 300 TXT msg a week and over 13 hours XD and someone sing it for 5 years only gott 450 hours... what a light user

  • Ok guys THIS IS IMPORTANT What about the KEYPAD BACKLIGHT??? today i was about to buy a beautiful black Pebl, but when i tried to see if the keypad letters and numbers where visible in the dark, i saw NOTHING, just the curved lines on top of the buttons.. Could you pleeease tell me your experience with the Pebl in the dark?? and honestly... is the backlight shown in the advertisement real? =S

  • www.modmymoto.com!!! Everything for your moto!!

  • I've had the phone 3 mos and used it continually. If you need a phone it is worth every penny. It is a compact, rugged, reliable PHONE that will handle email, IM and limited web access. Much more ergonomic and sturdy than pocket piercing sharp-edged Razr models. Kids hate it because it is "only" a serious phone -- not an MP3 player, hi-rez camera, PC or media center. It will sometimes trip up as most phones do and have to be rebooted, but no big deal. Most glitches are really network and not phone problems. The phonebook is a little clunky--read the manual and it works fine. Buy the $20 software to customize, backup or keep an extensive phonebook. The voice recognition and voice number dialing is worth the price -- do train it to your voice. Turn off Bluetooth when not needed and the battery life is good for 3 - 4 days standby. Just charge it in the evenings. The voice quality is great, and signal is there in areas a Nokia cannot be used. By the way, T-Mobil is 1000% better than Cingular.

  • Ok! Someone help me... I ordered a PEBL and now after reading the comments on here I might refuse the package when it comes. Can some just give me a honest opinion. I have a good phone now I just wanted an upgrade. Now I might reconsider. Somebody please give me some good advice. PLEASE!!!!

  • i think te motorola pebl is a gr8 mobile iff u consider buying this mobile that would be a gr8 choice

  • When ppl call can u see who's calling on the front screen when the phone is closed???

  • I' ve bought recently this cellphone. Also I have the bluetooth device for working with my PC. But i need to know where to find themes and ringtones. I'll apprecite your answers

  • I am using this phone for more than three month and except the limited memory I do not have any problem with this mobile phone. Before I forget, people love its style.

  • maybe you accidently drop it several times

  • looks good, and is an alright phone.At first. after a while, it decides when it wants to turn on and off, dosent ring, and is all in all a rubbish phone. It may look good, but if it dosent work, whats the point in it. *Jebus* age 12.

  • to surgeon1919 haha, i like your comment, true, some phone load with features, and some with style. My friend had this phone and have exactly the black color like in the picture, love the fact of the external clock; i definitely recommend this phone for any people who don't really get use to much of the feature such as (mp4, mp3, multimedia, high resolution camera), it's very user friendly and receive good signal; for my opinion, this phone is the best design that motorola made.

  • very stylish design !! cool

  • Why are all of you such babies? This phone isn't meant to be an MP3 player or a digital camera. Buy a Slvr L7, Razr V3I or a SE walkman phone. The build quality far exeeds many other phone and the same goes for just about all the other Motorolas. I have a 3 year old V600 with 415 hours of total time and it's still going strong. In fact I've owned 5 Moto's before and they've all held up very well. The Pebl is one of the best phones for call quality and reception. The menus in the Pebl, Slvr, V600, Razr... are just about all the same and they are soooooooooooo easy to use. I find the Nokia menus to be garbage not Moto's. Also, who cares if I have 10 people with who's name starts with an "S"? Press #7 4 times and it will give you all the people with the letter "S". By the time you start trying to type the person's name in SEARCH you've done the same with a MOTO. I've also never seen a Moto that would only accept 10-20 txt msgs. I have 85 in my V600 right now and another 40 in my PEBL In conclusion STOP BEING BABIES.

  • I used a PEBL phone for several months, but it is so buggy and had so many problems that I shut it off and went back to using my 3-year-old Panasonic cell phone. The biggest problem was that it shut itself off at random times. I'd set it down on, then pick it up a few hours later and it would mysteriously be off. More recently, it began shutting itself off automatically whenever it failed to connect a call. Even before it started malfunctioning, this phone's needlessly complicated ring tones and alarm clock settings really annoyed me. This phone sure looks nice, but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

  • To the person asking if you can put mp3's on it, what do you think, It's got a 5 MB memory, maybe if you make your mp3's extra small and compressed, then you might. but sound quality will be disspaointing.

  • the only way to get more internal memory is.. just delete all contents. :p

  • 5 MB; no bigger sticks to put in? brrr

  • can it play music and store it like an mp3 player ?

  • I'd like to know if the color scrapes off after some time

  • ugly phone. bad features. dont get it.

  • i have bought a pebl n its lovely i lyke it so much people if youre wondering 2 buy it do its brill.

  • ladies plz dont miss this one. It does not slide but clam in the different way, it is uniq

  • Does anyone know about changing the internal memory?

  • Great design could be much better if had mp3 and memory card slot.

  • The phone looks really good in appareance. One friend of mine has it and is really cool. The bad thing is the memory...I like it but personally I would not buy it...its kind of girlish...

  • I had my phone for 2 months. It is a great phone. Takes very nice pics, easy opening function. i jus love it. I got the blue one. Only problem so far is that it got a little dirty from everyday usage, somehow it does not want to come off. What should i use. I am afraid of using hard substances on it because it might damage the surface, its just like 3 dirty marks at the back. Memory is small but y do u want to hold whole songs on ur phone anyway,its not an ipod. However, it can hold up to like 3 whole songs on it. And that crap comment i read about it only hold 14 text messages that is a lie. I had 60 in my inbox and 40 in my outbox and it was still accepting more. the keys not hard to dial either. One other thing i am hoping someone responds, Does the magnet in the phone cases damage the phone and the camera? I have not been able to access mms and email. but i know that is a problem with my service provider (NOT MOTOROLA) To all of you out there contemplating about purchasing the phone, worry no more. GO AND BUY THE PHONE ITS HOTT!!!

  • You guys can't spell for your lives... its a kool phone, ugly name

  • i herd it was crap wiv bad memory but i quite like da luk of it how is it?

  • I have had two unlocked pebbles and I have trouble sendind and receiving pictures both through bluetooth and text-anyone else

  • does this phone has a radio?

  • its a a cool phone and not too fussy and very user friendly.

  • i think they r wicked they r da best i dont no why most peeps dot lik them get one if u dont have a phone they r wicked

  • reply to email do you open the phone like a normal flip phone? Yes only difference is at the top of the phone, above the sub lcd is a small sliver button which you push down which opens the phone flip style. The phone is good, small and light.

  • the pebl sux no battery life and total usage of battery is like 1.2 hrs when da battery is already dead

  • It does not open like a normal flip phone. you have to slide it down then it opens automatically

  • the specs on here says that it hold 10 received calls but someone told me that is can hold 60 received calls. could someone with this phone tell me how much it can really hold

  • my experience with this phone, is my general experience with motorola...it's image first, delivery second. even the charger works when it feels like it. at least my company pays for mine, though...

  • its boriiiiiiiiiiingggggg

  • I've read en a magasin that you don't open this phone like normal "Flap-Phones"... Eny1 who can confirm that?

  • well, I just got mine yesterday and so far I think it's a great phone...but this night I put it to charge for the first time and when I woke up, like 9 hours later, it was still charging!!! I'w quite worried! Does anyone know anything about that?? help me please!!!

  • i am thinking of buying this phone but from the opinions i just read i am still thinking

  • Great phone ...my dad gave me this for my Birthday...I wanted the pink one but this one is just as cool.....

  • The best phone I ever had....fantastic quality small and compact.....just what every girl needs ....my friends all want one.

  • why cant this little thurd have enough memory???? why?

  • I upgraded to this phone from a samsung D500, i wish id of kept my old phone or upgraded to another one. Its rubbish!! The keys get smudged all the time and it always looks dirty....ALSO! The memory is absolutley crap! It only holds 1 full song...and about 15 pictures...! Iv just payed �150 to get a new phone, because it too late to send it back!! If you were thinking about buying it....DON'T!!!!

  • The worse phone i have own it shut of sometimes for no reasons,the key pads hard to press

  • Yes it has a cool look and structure to it, but remember this... When they give a phone out FREE when you sign up for a plan, you get it free because its a LOW BUDGET Phone.. you get what you pay for... Give it to a teenager, an Adult needs more than what this phone provides.

  • Well, the only thing I like is the "slide-n-flip" feature on the phone. Intuitive, but the structure is very brittle. Expect it to wear out with time. 5 MB, bah what a rip-off! And of that 5 MB available, how much is already taken up by apps, ringtones, themes etc. that are already standard on the phone? Absolutley disappointing and a complete rubbish phone.

  • i think it is the most beauiful phone i have ever seen. i love it, can i have one free free free please

  • COMPLETE CRAP! no memory for messages, songs, pictures or anything. hardly any utility softwares. vga camera is pathetic. its time people prefer megapixels. sound nowhere near standard. looks awfuly odd. opens easily but breaks even more easily. costs way too much. worth a broken penny. if you have one. better throw it wher it belongs. deep under water.

  • Brought this phone a week ago cant transfer files from computer to the phone. the camera is good it looks great and it aint heavy. bluetooth is disapionting coz it only works for 60 secs at a time. the keypad is difficalt to get used to. not many ringtones come wit it but u can easily get round this but it is a good fone and i would recomend it

  • can u swap the covers on this fone? i saw some different cover clip ons in the O2 store so just wondered..

  • sold the phone last week after two weeks use. i bought the samsung d520 and this one wins hands down for better menu layout, more memory and all over better functionality. o yeah did i mention the camera on the d520 does a way better job than the pebl?

  • I've had this phone for a year - and in all that time I've been desperately waiting for my next upgrade. Yes, it feels and looks amazing. However, the software is a real let down. I upgraded from a Samsung and that was an amazing phone compared to the very limited capabilities of this one. Getting my new Nokia tomorrow and can't wait...

  • this phone is bijoux brooo

  • i love it. its an experience to hold pebl .

  • Someone said this phone opens too easily. What do they mean about that?

  • does it have lots of memory my friend said it didnt

  • the fone is good but the inside design stings

  • I have been using this phone for over a month now and i love it! the design is fantastic , the colour range enables you to express your personality (i got an orange1) the only thing i find a little bit annoying is the bluetooth, its only discoverable for 60seconds and after that your not visible for others..

  • How is the reception on this phone? i dont care about camera or music. Just good reception everywhere

  • Just read a whole load of opinions about this phone both good and bad. I love it, the great feel of the casing, the easiness of opening it and the way it sits perfectly in my hand. Had only one problem with it after 7 months, the phone started to switch itself off. Don't know if this a a re-occuring fault or due to the couple of times I dropped it, but it's been replaced and I still love it regardless of that little hiccup. I own a digi camera and an mp player, so only want a phone to talk on and text people and this phone does what a phone is supposed to whilst looking great - only gutted that they've now bought out new colours and I can't have one of those till I can upgrade again next year!

  • Yes you can see who's calling on the ouside screen.

  • i wanna know if you can see who's calling without opening the phone? does it have a screen on the front that tells you?

  • I have had this phone for a few months and LOVE it. I have never had a problem with. I also have a one year old who plays with it, so unless you are trying to break it, it's kinda difficult to break it in half, or crack the camera lens. The voice commands are awsome. I have a little difficulty when I have my bluetooth hooked up with the voice commands on it. Other than that, everything else work great.

  • Think before you buy this phone as the memory is poor. It only holds 14 text messages!!!!

  • ive had the pebl since Jan....and ive gotta admit its been a hell of a let down. I upgraded from a samsung and i tell you what i should have upgraded to another samsung...the prob i find with motorola's is the design..fantastic! the software...ive seen more power in a 1970's calculator. Oh i cant wait till i can upgrade again.

  • this phone is worth a pebble only, what use of 5 mb memory and wid video cam and blutooth if theres no space to store data??????? think b4 u buy. a real pebble is better

  • hi this phone really is annoying it opens way too easily its too sensitive and the memory is crap u can only store about 1 mp3 tune on there its rubbish especially how much money their sold for

  • this phone is more like a cheap copycat of japan KDDI au Penck...

  • Need some help! I've heard people say you can get rid of some of the factory ring tones, pictures etc... how do you do this? Any help is appreciated.

  • Motorolas have some of the worst and non-user friendly phones outhere,but....they are some of the most beautiful too.

  • It�s an awesome phone! You know, people usually like using their phones for somethings that they will NEVER do. For example, if you want to take the best pics of your life, buy a Camera! If you want to rec your life, buy a DVCAM! If you want to listen to your mp3 songs, buy an iPod! Cell phones weren�t made to it, but they do it quite good, for those who LIKE it. The most amazing thing in this phone is that it doesn�t open if you don�t want to. It�s awesome! And the part of dialing the numbers, It�s kind of hard in the begginin, but you get used to it. The phone is awesome, but just like my friend above said: don�t put it in your pocket full of keys, or play football with the mobile. It wasn�t made for it. That�s all for now. Be good!

  • yes caller ID is shown. it's also possible to answer a call just opening a flip. amazing phone. im goin to buy one soon.

  • question, can the outside screen display whos calling?

  • I love this phone! I purchased the orange one. I had the Razr V3x before this phone and didn't like it at all. The Razr software was very "buggy" and slow. I like the PEBL much better. The call quality seems better and it's much smaller.

  • Listen, why are people always saying "the phone breaks on me in a week"? Simple response, cause you dont take care of it. Answer these questions. How many times have you dropped it, how many times do you put it in your pockets with your keys next to them so you could scratch the phone, do you have fun using it as a football? I just got the phone a few days ago. You cannot judge a phone by only having it for a few weeks. Like everything else that is mechanical, it breaks down in time. So the only real question about this phone is does it last, and nobody has been able to answer it. Why? Because they dont give it a chance. I agree that a basic phone like this one costing over 300$ canadian is a little on the expensive side, but I still bought it for its simplicity and its looks. So far i'm very happy with what i got. I dont need my phone to have extensive memory for music, I have my ipod for that. I dont need my phone to morph into a leperchaun or do flips. All in all, good phone, user friendly, the flat buttons was a little odd at first but you get the hang of it really fast. The auto flip is really cool. The only thing i didnt enjoy so far about the whole phone package was that crappy ear peice they give you. I had one for my old V400, complete peice of ****. Buy the LG ear peice or just go with bluetooth, I rather have the ear peice, alot cheaper.

  • This phone is really cute...but that's about it. It is VERY hard to dial numbers, and like someone else said, texting is out of the question. I had it for 3 days and have already returned it.

  • i hate this phone i've only had it for a day and its already broke the cameraa lens smashed and the screen has blacked out please dont buy it trust

  • give me a gud reason to buy this phone...its really bad......has just a vga cam and no memory slot.....this is moto at its worst

  • I gpt the orange pebl its soo cool !!! Chris Curtis has it !!! hes soo trendy !!!

  • I gpt the orange pebl its soo cool !!! Chris Curtis has it !!! hes soo trendy !!!

  • I had the same problem to install my PEBL. my computer was telling me that it could not detect my mobile deive, and that it did not past windows logo testing.i decided to try it on my friends computer and it installed without complications the only difference in my attempt was that my computer did not prompt me to restart. i did so after it i completed the regfistration and when iturned on my PC ans click the application it ask to enter the device profile. i did so and it worked

  • I llllllllove it!! I had the samsung knockoff of the RAZR before, and this is a vast improvement. It works better, looks better, and is easier to use. it's an awesome phone. get one now!

  • You have to update your software (Mobile Phone Tools). I had a V3 and MPT didn't detect it, so I updated MPT and it worked well. Miguel, Lima - Peru

  • I have Mobile Phone Tools, but it doesn't detect my PEBL U6, then i have to use it as a GSM Generic that doesn't give me access to Multimedia center where i could find File Manager, Melody, etc... SOme suggestions, please write me to [email protected]

  • Can somebody help me please? how can i record music track on this phone and listen to the recorded track thereafter via the speaker phone? Please help!

  • Great phone: uber design, solid, long battery life. Small correction to specs: mine stores last 60 dialed and 60 received+missed calls.

  • to guy who said "two to three songs can be stored" and other low-level humanoids who argued with 5mb free space.. I'll give you an advice: DO NOT ever try to use your poor brains for rating such famous devices as a mobile phones!!! :0 5mb is extremly enought for 5-10 mp3 ringtones and some vitally important java apps(OM, IM clients..) + if you make an effort you can delete 3-4mb of factory rubbish(skins, ringtones).. all you have to do si just flash your phone with MP.. and you'll get it)) thanks.

  • vga camera!!!???

  • This is without doubt the worst "phone" you could possibly buy, EVER! I had it for about a week before returning to the store it just sucked so bad. Now, where do I start? The software is just awful, it's so slow and buggy, motorola have been using this OS for about three years now so it is dated aswell, especially when you consider that it was pretty crap when it came out! The camera is abysmal(not helped by the grainy display)- my old SE t610 could take better pictures, in fact now that I think about it, the t610 could do most things better than this telecommunications travesty. There is only 5mb internal memory (with no card slot) so the idea of an mp3 player is a little limited? Not that it matters as the sound quality is so woeful that you wouldn't bother storing any songs on it. Call quality is even worse. The keypad is awkward which makes the allready difficult to navigate software damn near impossible, and of course texting is out of the question. Also the backlight is non existant so you can barely see the keypad in the dark. The opening mechanism is crap, it springs open with such force that you struggle to stop the thing flying out of your hands, the matt black finish scratches up and flakes off very easily, by the end of the week there was barely any paint left. Don't buy this phone, you'd be better off with two tin cans and some string.

  • o.o It's the coolest phone ever. I really like it. :D

  • this is fashion mobile cannot have much memory only two to three songs can be stored.

  • i'm sorry but this has got to be one of the most ugliest phone i've ever seen. i'm guessing it's more towards the female market with this phone maybe? because i'm not feeling this one at all =/

  • umm how many songs can you hold on this fone

  • Props to Moto for another terrific design. Love the PEBL, very elegant and high fashion-great addition to the Moto FMLY with the RAZR, SLVR, and the upcoming/rumoured Capri and Canary. However, what's the deal with the ROKR?

  • The driver is

  • to attach a picture go to contacts go to the number u want press view the edit and scroll down to picture and you can attach it there

  • hey! where can i get its usb driver? thanks

  • No one yet, I need to know how to activate the photo call on this phone, plzzzzzzzzzzz

  • Just got the phone like two weeks ago for my girl but she wants to activate the photo call on the phone, like when a friend is calling she can see the picture also , so i will like you guys to help me on that, I need to know how do I do it, thanks , waitting for your help

  • well i think its a very good cellphone but it only has 5 mb so y think you should go for motorola slvr l7 with micro sd.they are the same but l7 can store alot more memory.

  • HELP!!There's someone who can explain me how get in my pebl java applications or theme???the motorola software permit only music a nd photos??helpme!!!!please reply on [email protected] THANKS

  • it's a great reliable device, i had it for a while now and no problems it all, not much memory though.

  • are you willing to sacrifice function over fashion??? you decide...

  • Brilliant only had it yesterday (May 26th) But i love it a must have BUT THE ONLY DOWNFALL IS THE MEMORY 5MB (thsats not enough for 2 whole songs 3mins long) But doesnt let it down. Kieran xxxxx

  • i have this phone for 3 month it work fine but some time software hang , can not do anything unless take the battery out and put it back again.its like restarting your computer:( .is there any that can update my phone software.

  • i love the motorola pebl u6! its so beautiful but when the pink or red one hits stores its all mine!!!!!!!!

  • i got this phone about a couple of months ago and im having trouble with the network. i can't but ringtones or wallpapers. its so lame. should i check with my service provider? or is my phone just retarded?

  • I want a white pebl once they come out with it, i'll run out and get it!!

  • ive had the motorola pebl since january now, and i think the phone sucks basically. i was one of the suckers who got grabbed in by its advert. the phone has alot of bad points but the main bad point about the phone is the size of its memory, it has possibly the lowest amount of memory in a phone that i have ever seen. also the whole styling of the phone sucks. when i first got the phone i thought the style of it was great and the flip design was great, but after a while u are sick of seeing it. this has completely put me off getting another motorola phone ever again.

  • I really like this phone but I have one problem. Because I saved some messages (only 9) to my sim card when I put the card into the Pebl it says messages full. I can't transfer the messages to the phone and can't get rid of the message. can anyone help me.

  • I had wanted to buy this phone pebl for my gf, the design is great but the features are a dissapointment, i feel is over priced

  • if is 1 thing i love motorola but they need to do better than that pebble

  • u all opinions has made me change my mind from buying the pebble and coming to think about it this phone really sucks and in trinidad d pebble dont have EDGE

  • this phone rox!! i mean the spring flip is convenient, the magnetic pull so it doesnt snap back when u close it, internal antenna, this phone is the whole nine yards. the best feature of this phone is that u can activate voice dialing without pre-programming names and numbers, and also u can activate it from the sim card. this phone is awesome, and i'd recommend it to anyone...ROCK ON MOTO

  • k, this phone is an innovative hinge design at a price of $619(aus) with no expandable, very limited shared memery(5mb) and an outdated VGA camera, would u pay this much 4 a phone that is outclassed by a cheaper sony ericsson in the w550i which beats it in every aspect of a phone. Motorola please if u wre trying to sell this phone place it in somewhere on the lines of a 3310 nah jks, probly a siemens sl65.Final comments, lol motorola eats massive. no offence 2 moto lovers.

  • Without using swearing i will try to express my opinion of this phone. I will block swaering with **** them. Ok Its ************ ************ ** **** **** and *** lol. Well motorola are using the same menus yet again and are charging a stupid price for a VGA phone with ONLY 5MB of memory!!! Honestly thats bullplop iv seeen Sagem phones with more memory then that SAGEM lol. Its hinges are cheaply made and it makes this phone totaly un-reliable.

  • added comment: of course you should google for Moto4Mac. here is a link to the motoguide

  • For the PEBL U6 there is a prog called Moto4Mac which enables you to get rid of ALL the standard ringtones. As far as I'm aware off there is a prog for Wndows as well. Google for Moto$Mac to begin with

  • I LOVE THIS PHONE. I've had many phones, this is by far my favorite. Easiest to use, most fun, performs perfectly. The only thing is, does anyone know a way to get rid of the factory ringtones and wallpapers?

  • i'd like to ask a question who has good information about this phone. i heard that it had 4 or 5 other colors but why can't i see any of them on this site?what colours are they present in other countries?

  • eeeewwwwwwwwwwwwweeeeeeeee!!!!!!!! it is hideous!! its not a pebble. it looks like a 1000 year old egg.

  • it is a bit of pain that you cant delete the pre installed tones and pics, does anyone know if theres any way of getting them off? could free up some more memory!

  • look i love my phone but the one thing i have a problem with is getting rid of these factroy ringtones & wallpaper like i said i love my pebl u6

  • This is the best phone I have ever had, and I have had a lot of phones. I love it! It looks good, feels good and performs well, perfect.

  • i was wondering if there is any way (by adapter, etc.) that i can use a wired headset and charge the phone by the same time. similar to the "y" adapter that can charge a phone and bluetooth at the same time. i want to know if you there is a splitter to charge and use a wired headset at the same time please email me, thanks

  • i sware who ever said it is not a gd phone its the best ever1 shld by it

  • why get it it is to expenceve and it is so thick as in chunky get the razr v3 just as gd but reliable and more fetures & it,s slim as heck

  • the other dot is just a little light that comes on when you are charging the phone... nothing fancy :-)

  • On the Motorola PEBL their is the camera lens and above it is another dot. What is that other dot?

  • To Frank Gonzalez: I don't know what you call "USB cable convetional". I can tell you this: the USB cable is the same of the RAZR family. Sorry about my english, I am from Argentina.

  • i'm having probs with my space button! you really have to press it hard and hold it down for it to work! none of the other keys do this. its really annoying cuz i write my texts and theres no spaces!!! does anyone else have this problem or is my phone a dud?

  • Pebl is basically the Razr in a different shell. The spring on the flip is too strong, and the phone almost flips out of your hand when you open it. Then there is a section on page 3 of the manual where it states that you shouldn't put it in your purse or near your wallet because the magnets will erase all of your credit cards. This is actually true. I know three people that have had their credit cards erased. I wouldn't get it for anything. And it costs too much.

  • I wuld like to know if the software for this phone is available on the web. Also, does somebody know if the USB cable for this phone is conventional or special. Thanks.

  • Thanks alot that review really helped me :-) I'll surely consider buying the Pebl now!

  • To j: EDGE (absent in the first shipments, the support appears since the mid autumn) I take this sentence from Hope this helps, read the review !!!

  • To j: I have one in bordeaux-vine colour, made in singapur. I am from Argentina, and it doesn' t have or support EDGE. I don' t know if in other countries are different specs. I hope that helps you.

  • To AznRoyale Here I put a link to a video who show the open mechanism. I hope that helps you. I had mine Pebl in bordeaux-wine colour and its great!!! Sorry about my english, I am from Argentine.

  • Is it possible that it does have EDGE in some countries and not in others?? I consulted a danish mobile-forum and the majority agreed that it does have support EDGE... I'm really quite confused now. I'd ask the operator but I don't really trust that they'll give me an objective answer. somebody please help!!!

  • i dont think it does have edge...just looked on moto official website as i queried the same thing...it doesnt mention edge on there at all

  • Does the Pebl have EDGE or not? I can't really figure it out :-( On this site it says that it hasn't. On others it says that it does...I'm rather confused now...Could anyone please inform me if it does or doesn't? Or is it more complicated than that (like the first shipment doesn't but the latter ones do)? Please help on this matter as I'm ver keen on purchasing it but its a rather important issuse as I often use my mobile as modem and GPRS is simply TOO SLOW :-) Thanks alot!!!

  • it's a nice phone..but it says that it has push to talk..but it doesn't...

  • wayhey! i have my pebl and ooh its lovely. its really small and it feels good,its all smoothy. i'm very happy.i've only had it a few hours but already got some new ringtones and pictures on and photos of my friends. memory is double what i had on my old phone so it seems amazing right now! to be honest, i'm a text-a-holic and wasnt sure about the keypad but it works really well! i've always had nokia phones before but i've taken to the different layout and menu really well..ok, it doesnt have mp3 player but i already have one of those so i'm not bothered, and the camera isnt amazing but for just saving snaps on your phone it does the job. recommended if you want a phone that looks good but isnt to flashy...i love it

  • just got the phone it is the cutest and the greatest phone their is. you would love it.

  • thinking of getting this phone but the memory looks quite poor... how many pics and tones etc does it store? might go with the slvr as you can put memory card in... i dont know which one to get.i like the look of the pebl more but are features on slvr better?... help!

  • QUESTION: does anyone know how many SMS I can store in the memory of this PEBL? I used to have a Motorola V66 on which I only could store max. 15 SMS. Later on I bought a Samsung E720 (bad phone!) in which I could store about 100 SMS.

  • Thanks for you help Jazn but please bare in mind that you are talking to a simpleton who really has not grasped this phone technology stuff. How do I turn the auto updates off and then go down another menu level? ;) Thanks!

  • heya i was just woundering if the motorola pebel has good features like mp3 player

  • My friend asked that question about the time thing too. His was set on Autoupdate to the cell towers, so when daylight savings happened, I just powered down/up the phone and it adjusted itself. If you want to manually change it, I think you have to switch the autoupdate off, then go down another menu level to change it.

  • Can anyone tell me how to update the time on the Pebl? I know its a bit thick but I've been trying to change it since daylight savings and can't work it out. Ta.

  • ppl....ppl ....listen... mr b u can buy a phone 10 times cheaper and still opens that way....u must be joking ...that's why u bought the phone???.....motorola has his clients ...i agree on that... but when u buy a thing ..look twice ....that goes for the v3 ....there is the v3x and v3i that are much better and cost a litlle more but ...heck it's worth it

  • hi i baught this phone last the best i like in this phone is the way its open and close

  • motu6 i likes it alot. u6 is its smoth oval from with taclile housing and innovative dualhinge mechanisum to open and close the device with one swift delicate motion. and this phone got vga cam mpeg 4 video bluetooth mms instant messaging sys downable mp3 ring tones.this is top of the line

  • iz motorola mad....this are the worst feature on a phone ...and it's expensive 2

  • does anyone know how to create your own message tone? i put mp3s into the phone, but can't select them through details?

  • hey i want to know how to download mp3's onto the phone can anyone help please?

  • when you open it on the right side, sliding the phone down, does it tilt to the left?

  • hey eddie. I said the same thing in my mini review. I can easy send a single file to another handset through bluetooth, but like you i cannot browse the other handset to see what other files they have.

  • Motorola is 1 of d best phones ever.No lie, i luv d PEBL.

  • wat is wit da complaints peeps? cum now if u dont lyk it its really simple get rid of it! stop moaning coz aint nobody listenin to u!!!!!!!! by da way i still say go moto coz dis is astunning phone

  • hi just got new pebl great phone having teething probs with the bluetooth. im unable to check other bluetooth devices files when connected to them, is this phone unable to view them, please let me know correct procedure will be grateful

  • Great Phone! Way more capable that other phones oferd by tmobile.

  • I'll be honest - i got the pebl because im shallow and i like the way it looks, im not too fussed about an overload of features [though obviously they'd be appreciated!], and i did have a samsung d500 before. overall im happy, but wish i could hide the left hand menu-bar that orange insist on - is there any way of hiding it? iv managed to get the anlogue clock up using the tip left here on the boards - but would love to be able to hide my icons [have tried doing it at start-up but orange seem to override my requests]

  • Some people here love to complain.... Sounds like a bunch of little babies. This phone is awesome!!!!!!!!!! I love it and I don't care what anyone says about it. For those of you who do complain, it's most probably because you are making it ten times harder than it should be. I have no problems. Anyways, stop complaining and get over it, you have one of the coolest phones out there.

  • Although the phone looks and feels fantastic, I can not get my head around the phone book. I have tried to transfer sim contacts to phone memmory but am unable to display just phone memmory contacts so all contacts are duplicated in phonebook. to add to this I am unable to add more then one contact No. to each name resulting in some cases to 8 entries for 1 person. . .this is begining to get on my nerves & I have only had the phone since Friday. If I can not sort this out I'm getting rid, thank God its a contract phone. If anyone knows how I can sort out the phonebook pls let me know asap (I have about a week left to rtn it).

  • Dis phone sucks(sorry 2 say that)It is true!!!!!.It is lack of memory.It's only 5mb.What can u save with that such a little memory.Motorola is still not good on da memory.It is expensive.It is RM1400 in Malaysia.(i'm stayin in m'sia)such a waste!The person who buy dis phone is just 4 da design.Da design is great though.

  • I am not keping the PEBL, mostly because I've gotten to used to Sony-Ericsson software. The problem is I want to erase ALL the phone numbers in it and it has only erased the numbers on the sim card not the phone memory. Can anyone out there help? Please!! I don't want to send this thing back with all my friends numbers in it. Thanks!

  • Get over it everybody, its only a phone. Its a sad day when you hate a phone so much that you bag it on GSMARENA.

  • The best looking phone in a long time, crap features. I like it!

  • Does anyone know where can i download themes for my pebl?Thanx

  • I love the design and would like to buy one, I don't mine the features is enough for me as I have many phones to play MP3, Mpx camera etc. What I mean I just buy for the "LOOK". One thing stopping me for buying this phone, is the expandable memory!!! I'm pretty sure Motorola could put hot swap t-flash/micro SD upto 512meg as they did on razr V3i. Maybe PEBL U6i??? Why not Motorola? Since you are introducing for new color for PEBL series, why not at the same time upgrade to U6i. I'm pretty sure is more attractive to all of us...!!!! Pls consider Moto, since I will get one in brown as I saw in HK.

  • that's bacause there's a problem with the electronics of the phone. i had the same problem with my v600. send it back to a service centre and get it fixed.

  • sad to say this is the worst phone i ever have, its power keep going off and i need to switch on the phone at least 7 times a day. Sometimes by a shake of the phone, power just switches off immediately, and when i received the call, the phone also switches off by itself. It look stylist and presentable but almost unuseable. I do not know how to group the phone address and there isn't a way to organise the phone. I thought this phone photo was better than my previous 2mega pixel camera phone, but only 2 out of 10 picture can be kept. memory is not enough for me. Still Regret. Brought at phone at SG$550 and after a week price drop to SG$250 and a month later SG$128. Can't believe it. Big Regret.

  • This is the best phone in the world,

  • I have had my pebl 3 weeks now and thought i would tell everyone how it's going. Well the phone looks far better then most phones on the market today. The feel and looks are spot on. I want to talk about the sound, even though it's only got 24 channel sound, it sounds louder and better then my wifes D600. When looking for buy this phone I knew i never needed a super dupa 2MP camera or mp3 player, hence why i choose this phone. The camera is still decent enough and playing mp3 as rings it very good. Iv just split an mp3 to about 40 secs long and added it to the phone. It's not as though i'll leave the phone ringing for a bit before i answer it. This is my first motorola and im pleased with the layout. Some of the themes look good and wallpapers look really sharp on the screen. Java wise the phone is good aswell, Im playing games like sensible world of soccer, Cannon fodder and loving it. I plan on getting plenty more games for my pebl. The office tools are ok aswell, alarm clock and memo recorder and planner work well and im happy with them. Blue tooth works just fine. The only problem is that om my wifes D600 once the phones are connected she can browse my phone and take pics, sound files and video's if she wishes. where as i can send a single file but cannot browse ofther phones to see what other files they have that i could use. The only problem i could see with this phone is the lack of memory. But since iv loaded my phone up with 4 games, some newer ringtones and wallpapers i still have 4mb left. This was after removing the pre-installed java apps. all in all im very pleased with my new phone and hope many other people enjoy there Pebl.

  • I love this cellphone can anyone give me this one I just love the style...I love the cover...Motorola produce best cellphones ever...I love to work at Motorola company...I love Motorola...That's all

  • im obsessed with my pebl. its pretty, and i love it

  • i love this phone but why its not slim

  • I got my brand new, �200 motorola pebl at the beginning of Feb 2006 which I upgraded to from a Samsung E720. It's now the 8th March, and I am on my third one - this one doesn't work properly either! So I am swapping over to the Samsung D600. The 1st Peble i bought, the screen didn't come on. The 2nd one, when anyone phoned me, and I flipped the phone open, I couldn't speak to them - I had to remove the battery and then phone them back! The third one continuously asks me to insert the sim card, even though it's in. I have contacted Motorola to tell them the problems I am having with their flagship phone, and they told me there's nothing they can do about it, it must be 'bad luck'. But 3 bad ones out of 3, I don't think so! Please hurry up, Mr Postman, and bring me my Samsung, I should never have changed to Motorola.

  • This is a real 21st century mobile phone. just beautiful.

  • the u6 have speaker ???

  • Hi, I just got the phone today and I'm very impressed. It has so many features and, as I'm not into fiddly technical phones, I find it very easy to use. I love the sleek design, I just wish they would bring out a hot pink version like they did with the RAZR ;o) I'd give this two thumbs up!

  • Just got the phone recently very happy with it! Used to have the moto v547... so it is a big change, and a good change deffo a step up for Moto! Those people that say the fone is for girls wtf eh? If anything the fone is for men black,stylish,smart,easy 2 use, Good techs! Most of you are probably just pissed off coz u aint got one. Any way the PEBL ROCKS!

  • you can upload actual mp3 format songs to the fone but as you only get 5mb of memory i wudnt bother as you will use up all your space

  • I needed help finding out the s/w version of the device. I tried going through the settings -> phone status, but the 'other information' option is missing in the menu screen. In case someone of you could give me some information on this, it would be a great help.

  • i want 2 get the phone but i need more info about it.

  • Hi, Does anybody know how to stop the icons coming in from the left of the screen on an orange pebl. Cheers, Rob

  • Hey does any1 know how to speed up ringtones that you have made. i cant work out how to do it and it isnt mentioned in the booklet.

  • my mother might get this phone, after afterwards it would be mine. i heard some people say that the functions are bit wack

  • hey, i have a question regarding the mp3. It says mp3 in the description. But can you really upload an mp3 song into the phone or just one of those short clips?

  • this is stylish phone but the flip caomes of easily and i wouldnt recommed it.... the flip doesnt look like it will stay on for longer than 6mths. its not worth investing on a pebl

  • what a phone

  • Motorola did it this time.What a phone!A solid 10!!!!!!!!!!!!1

  • PLEASE HELP Is there a Fire Red PEBL? I see it on the internet, but can find nothing official about it on motorola site? I can only find the black PEBL with rubbery, mat finish? Is there one that has a polished smooth finish? THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP Cleo

  • Hi JayC Yes you can attach multiple numbers to the Contacts on the PEBL. Also, although the spec is nowhere near as high as the Nokia N90, 6680, Sony K750i etc, I have had all of these and the PEBL is by far the best phone I've had in recent years!!

  • I always have the latest phones and this is the best phone I had by far. specs and performance are awesome and it flips open with one touch of the thumb (i.e. no fumbling like with the Razor).

  • Thinking of buying it but Can anybody tell me if it's possible to have multiple numbers attached to one name in the address book?

  • dam i love this phone but only 1 thing make me mad is why this new phone uses 5 mb share memory and also dun have a Card slot for sd or mmc something .

  • well what i found abt it that it gets dirty quicky other wise quite kool fone,

  • Where is the Wireless Village feature? according to the specs it should have WV! WV= an open standard you can use to chat, MSN Messenger etc. it only cost gprs data. I bought mine from internetshop, so no strange Orange firmware. But I think one menu item has been disabled: IM (Instant Messaging!) anyone knows how to turn it off? I already ordered the phone, after that I learned Motorola didn't implement EDGE (fast internet) like they were suppose to! That (& no IM) REALLY SUCKS! a phone that comes out a year after the V3 with no extra's (except great voicedial/activation)... damn you Motorola

  • I am using Cingular right now..do anyone know how to set up the mutimedia account, so i could sent and recive picture ? Thank you!

  • I bet if motorola comes out of a white PEBL, it will be huge hit

  • WOW!! Dutch Guy you are a LEGEND. I've seen searching for ever to find out how to change it to analog! Why did Orange change it? Does anyone know if orange took anything else out of the phone?

  • I wouldn't advise anyone to get this phone!!! Firstly it has no flash - even with night mode u can't take pictures unless you're in a really bright room. I got this phone just before my 18th but I have no pictures of my ngiht out becasue the camera is so rubbish! The flip action is cool but my mechanism began to work itself loose after a week (my friend has had one for a while and it feels like its about to snap in half!). Also the bluetooth is rubbish, no phones seemed to pick me up and it was extremely tempramental! Its really hard to navigate too; because the way the menu is arranged depends on your network it takes a while to find things out as the instructions don't always correspond with what's there! In the end I sent it back and have just ordered a samsung - so here's hoping this one's better!

  • My phone sometimes turn itself OFF & then ON again, irritating!!! Anyone have the same problem?

  • Hello, my external voice command button and volume control buttons are not working.Can anyone help please? Does anyone have the original firmware of the motorola PEBL? Thanks. Steve

  • help help help! i had this phone as a gift and the friend who offered me this phone bought it from Belgium which also means, all the important informations is written in Dutch. Can somebody explain to me how to attach a photo and send to a friend? i tried many times with no success....

  • anyone tried the voice dial - i wouldn't bother, the name dial is useless, the number dial slightly better, working about one in ten tries, this makes it very time consuming, it's easier to do it in the normal way, nice phone etc. but features that don't work are a waste of time

  • Im 16 and i got the new moto pebl for christmas and i think its great. All the stuff thats inside it is very similar to my old v525 but i love the flip mechanism. I havent read all the reviews so i dunno if this has been answered: but u can record longer than 6 seconds you just have to go to the video options and change the length to 'maximum'. The camera is really clear most of the time but when you zoom in 4x it goes a bit grainy is that normal?

  • Props to R. Hornikx. I've been spending a couple days trying to change the clock from digital to analog. It was driving me mad! Thanks for your post. Jusy in case anyone missed it. -- It IS possible to change to analog clock with an Orange phone. I will try to explain in English (I am dutch). The Orange software is loaded in the end as you turn on the phone. The Orange software overrules the original Motorola software! So you must go in the menu as soon as possible. To do that, do the following: * turn the phone off for a minute * turn the phone on * enter pin Now, you must be fast! * touch the red button, so the Orange-start-up-logo dissapears. * quickly press MENU, SETTINGS, PERSONALISE and HOME-SCREEN. * If you are quick enough, you can change the clock settings to analog now. It works with my Dutch Orange PEBL. Good luck!

  • Hi Elaine, I'm on a contract with Orange... from what I can gather you can't globally set Delivery Reports to On; you have to specify when you want a Delivery Report. To do this, once you have created your message; Choose the 'Menu' button Select Message Options Change Delivery Report to Yes Select Done Send your message Hope this helps

  • hi just got my new photo, i'm really liking it except for one thing.... can anyone tell me if u can get a delivery report for messages that u have sent

  • Pros:Nice Design, Bright Screen, Good build quality, included accessories Cons:Price, Low camera resolution I just recently purchased this phone from www.saberpoint.com and it is a very nice addition for Motorolas 4 letter phone line-up(PEBL, RAZR, SLVR, ROKR). This phone is not the latest in technology regarding the camera or features but the style is great and is comes with everything you need for basic users. Also has a cool Rubber feel on certain version that does not scratch! That is my favorite part. This phone beats the RAZR which I had last because the design is nicer and not everyone has one!

  • hi, i got the motorola pebl today and i'm having problems with the bluetooth - which lets me connect to other people but then it just freezes! Also after installing all the software on to my computer and connecting the phone through the usb cable, i keep getting told that the phone isn't connected! has any one else had these problems, or can anyone give me any advice other than to send it back. please help!

  • Worst phone ever!! Poor flip mechanism, 6 second video recording!!! Had it for 3 hours and have demanded it be returned. Waiting for the Nokia 6280....Motorola's too unreliable!

  • Hiya everyone just wondering iif you can help me. i am getting a upgrade and I was looking the motorola peble but non of my friends have it so I don't no what it's like! Would you advise me in getting it? keita

  • thanks to alec for help with voice dial it works a treat. how cool cheers vix

  • Hi Vix, You do not need to attach a voice record to your phone entry for voice dialling,all you have to do is settings - personalise - voice dial setup. Follow the instructions it will ask you to say a few lines of numbers so the phone will know your voice. Aftre this just press the button the the right side of the phone it will then say 'say command' there are six options that you can verbally command the phone to do one of which is voice dial. So you say 'voice dial' and then the phone will ask for you to say the name.It will then dial that person. Somehow it learns the sound of your voice and knows what word you are trying to say. Hope this helps Alec

  • Thanks for the tip on changing the clock to analogue, it worked a treat! It's a shame you can't have it in digital format on the internal screen and analogue on the external, or can you?

  • Hi, Does anybody know how to stop the icons coming in from the left of the screen on an orange pebl. Thanks Alec

  • hi Was hoping someone might be able to tell me how to set up NAME DIAL. The user manual says to record a voice name in the phonebook entry details screen. This heading does not appear on my entry details screen therfore cannot record one. thanx

  • thankyou for the info on the orange phone poutting it back to analog, it is much appreciated! many thanks worked first time craig

  • Cheers for the instructions but my phone has either fixed its self or Orange have updated. The only remaining problem is the lack of memory for the media stuff. They claim you cant delete the factory stored sounds and pictures.

  • I have ordered my motorola pebl as i got a cheap pay monthly deal, i am very excited about gettin it as i am only 13 n i fink it is a gr8 phone, it is better than mine, well anything is better than the motorola v220 but unfortunatly i bought it with orange, so i am going to have to try change the clock some way. C Ya XxX

  • mr. dutch ... awesome stuff mate did wht u said, entered the menu and got it hats off mate cheers

  • It IS possible to change to analog clock with an Orange phone. I will try to explain in English (I am dutch). The Orange software is loaded in the end as you turn on the phone.

It works with my Dutch Orange PEBL. Good luck!

  • Matt is correct if you want the analog external display dont buy an orange locked pebl. I have just called them and they have no plans to change it and can offer no reason why its changed at all. Apart from that fantastic phone.

  • you cant change the external clock from digital to analogue (if your on Orange at least) because they have altered the menus and stuff.

  • this phone is weird. whats special on him? what PEBL mean?

  • i just got the phone myself and believe me its the best phone ive evr had... my nokia 6230i is still sulking in the corner. TIP: if u want a phone with good camera mp3 player n nuff memory dont go fr this...this is a phone which is a phone. an excellent phone. thr will be people who love it or if not hate it...simple..its stylish small decent features..and jus wonderful to hold. now...question: im in UK and i think the menus ben changed i cant seem to get the option for analog clock on the external .... no auto update option in 'time&date' menu and no clock option in personalize, home etc....PLEASE HELP!!

  • i received this phone as a christmas present and absolutely love it. its extrememly different than any other phone i have seen. it stands out above all with the way it opens up. if you are looking for a phone to amaze you and keep you on your feet this is the phone.

  • The user manual clearly explains how to enable the analogue clock on p.79 Settings -> Personalise -> Home Screen -> Clock -> Analogue

  • I will tell you the honest truth about this mobile pebl. It is absolutley great the design and the way it looks the only bad thing is the memory it is awful i thought they would have improved from the motorola v3 only having 5mb but it is the same the photos are really clear though and you can put them on your computer with a usb cable you get with it. I have taken no videos watsoeva and about 16 of my own photos and had about 60 messages in my inbox on my phone and the memory is full its awful and their is no memory card slot. but overall it is a unique design and one of the best desinged phone made.

  • I am having the same problem as Shane with the external clock. The option of clock is not in personilse > settings > home screen. I suspect they have chaned the design. Does anyone in the UK have a U6 with the analog clock feature?

  • Fantastic phone but still cant change the digital clock to analogue on the flip!!!!

  • cool looking camshell handset,but a few software problems,like the touch pad,clock etc,beside that it will be the king

  • settings - personalise - home screen - clock ?

  • when i first got the phone seemed good the look of the phone caught me but after a month the camera gave up and the touch pad as well when i press the number 1,9,5 it dails 0,2,3 a friend of mine has the same problem,should have gone for the vmoto

  • hi. ive just got my motorola pebl and i think its a fantastic mobile phone. the only thing im having a problem with is chaning the digital clock on the external screen to analog.can anybody help me?

  • This is a fashion phone for people who appreciate the design effort from Motorola design team. Nokia 6230 is just a mobile phone for NORMAL people........just like any other phone. By the way, all Nokia phone models all have different software/firmware bug when they first introduce tp the market(Nokia never test their phone well enough before they put them on the market; & this is the fact!!!)

  • I recently decided to upgrade from a Nokia 6230 to this phone. It does look nice, no doubt about that but feature wise, it is no where near the standard of my old Nokia. You can not do simple things like change the message alert tone, after a day it has greasy fingerprints all over it, the flip design is cheap and not sturdy enough and overall it is a very difficult phone to use. I have sent it back and am going to wait for the Nokia N series to come out!

  • i bought one and love this phone. the voice commands could be better. i have a silver and a black v3 razor and like the u6 a lot better. reception and battery life are a lot better with the u6 pebel.

  • cris > YES...

  • this phone is great just got it today!does it come with mobile phonetools v3 cd?

  • Does nayone know if it shows the caller ID on the external display?

  • i think the pebl is a brill phone ithink it has a crap memory! does anyone no if you can have a memory upgrade and if you can where to go? how do u change the clock from digital to analogue?

  • I got one a couple of days ago, and I must admit I really like this little phone. Paired with bluetooth headset no problem, and the digit dial and voice dial commands are really sharp. And it looks good!!!

  • the pebl... looks, great, feels great, all your work mates will want to hold it, and if you want to make calls and send texts this is a great phone. If you want to take video and photos then it isn't brilliant! Get a small digital camera! The length of video can be changed by reading the manual and going through the menus. Voice dialing has worked great for me - even with my strong regional accent. It takes a few reads-through of the manual to learn how to do everything - but i guess that is why they supply you with one!! The box comes with a personal handsfree on orange but not with O2.

  • its called the pebel but its more like a brick! but seriously it looks like motorola are brining out a few big ones! wilol they all be on the '3' network i hope not!

  • Niall, It's all in the manu that came with your phone. I must inform you that if you change the digital clock to analogue clock; it will not display the signal strength & battery meter.

  • Hello everyone. I have seen the advery millions of times, read too many reviews,and held it. It looks really good i have to say all i want to find out wether it takes gd pics n videos and bluetooth.I want to find out......it looks gd but is it! someone please reply to me! :D

  • Just got mine today....looks great and feels great but menu system is annoying and camera is fairly poor. I wish video clips were longer, but i can put up with all that since i have a camera, mp3 player etc too. What I want to know is....how do you voice dial numbers in phonebook? and how do you make the outside screen display te clock not digital numbers?

  • One of the best looking phone around, period.

  • A beautiful looking phone, great tactile sensation, flip up is a bit of a nuisance (top half is too heavy), but otherwise physically gorgeous. Unfortunately as usual motorola manages to produce stupid menu menu's despite everyone else in the industry managing to cover everything much more simply. Finally, and worst of all, the icons!!! They produce a beautiful phone, and then got some 10yo to design the icons - they're boxy, crude and childish - how about you spend a bit more on the graphics designers. Bad menu's and bad icons is enough to make me regret the purchase.

  • Cas, It is more apporiate if your comment apply to the Nokia 8800. regards, PS. For your information, I presently still own:- - Motorola U6, V3, V3i. - A Vertu Ascent. - A Nokia 8800. - Sony Ericsson K750i & K600. - 2 J-phones for use in Japan when travel there for business & holidays.

  • An overpriced joke, lacking the most basic features, like any other motorola really

  • how the keypads working???its looking wierd! is that just touch the surface??is that the keypad has sensor??

  • Pros : Great looking phone with excellent feel & the size is just perfect. Very strong reception. Cons : Keypad not bright enough & not as user friendly as the V3 keypad. Main screen can be bigger by utilizing the extra space available. Video clip too short time & camera can use higher MP ones. A great design phone none the less. Well done Moto.

  • gromit, there is no EDGE on U6, but i mean altho it looks gr8, but stil not worth buying, as V3x n V3i are alot better[ jus own comment no offense ]

  • I love this phone. The texture, the pleasure of the slide+open function and the functions are just awesome. I'm still getting used to the overall feel of the phone, texting with the pad is a little weird, but overall its a top notch phone. Whats more I got it free!

  • Can anyone confirm if this phone has Edge. In the manual it states there is Edge and even shows what the icon on the screen looks like. In the specs on various websites such as this one it states no Edge

  • this phone is for t-mobile in US

  • Tgis phone is beautiful. I tmay not have the best features but god, it's a good looking phone.

  • I got this phone last week. I love the shape design, the feel of the material, and the colour of the external display. However, I find that when i'm slightly aggresive shutting the flip the phone will restart! I can also tap quite hard just below the zero key and it will restart, not very good! I'm in the middle of sending it back, hopefully they all weren't made like this because I love the phone. Yeah, ok, the features aren't the best, but i've come full circle since my first mobile, the most I want is to be able to call, text someone and have bluetooth, that's all I use a phone for! So some good design goes along way with me. Hope this helps

  • Azza, to change from digital to analog on the clock go into menu, settings, intial settings, time and date; turn off auto-update; adjust the settings as you need; turn auto-update back on.... its a stupid place to put it, but once you learn the trick its not bad.

  • i just got my PEBL U6 today it's great... www.puremobile.com has a very good price $528.00 and you get the HS850 headset and 1 more battery... great buy

  • I've been a Sony Ericsson user and was apprehensive about buying this phone. This is one of those rare phones that has a tactile feel that makes u want to caress it. The weight of the phone itself gives an impression that its solidly built. A few issues that I have with it is the backward user interface. The icons look so 1980s, like Windows 85. The least they could do was to give us better looking ones like the ones found in E680i. My main peev is with the phonebook. I can't believe they are still using individual names for each number instead of grouping it into a user's set of numbers. And what is that scroll wheel doing on the interface? Arrrgghhh! I feel cheated of screen real estate. They think we're that stupid to need it to guide us through navigation? Since the camera is on top of the screen, it wasn't possible to have a bigger screen. But if you look at the edge of the screen, the thick lining around it could have been used as extra space. It would easily provide another 15-20% screen area. Why am I not sending it back? In the end, the cool design won me over. Motorola has finally been able to give us a design that closely resembles a Star Trek communicator. Now, if they would only add in a feature to make a sound when the phone is flipped, I would be able to use the communicator sound with it.

  • oh my goodness! his phone rock! honestly its a very irresistable phone! the design, material and feature. GO MOTOROLA!

  • There is a special XMAS edition out I saw on that comes with 2 batteries, 2 chargers, HS-850 headset, case and other stuff! The box looks AMAZING though. They have pictures they posted on Howard Forums and also if you click screenshot on this page:

  • Rite, im thinking of buying this fone, i would appreciate a constructive review by anyone who genuinly has this fone, I would appreciate if you could tell me the pros and cons of this fone

  • Simon stop talking absolute rubbish! You cant even get the pebl on pay as you go yet. Its only avaliable on contract. Please dont post here, if you dont have anything remotely interesting to say

  • can anyone tell me how to change the external display from digital to analogue please?

  • you can get the pebble at carphonewarehouse for �99.00+�10 top up not bad for a bluetooth phone even with limited memory nad vga camera.

  • Available on O2 from today. Contract Only.

  • I am very happy with this PEBL U6 phone. I use mobile phone mainly for making & receiving calls & messages. The bettery life is good, the reception much better than the V3 & the look & feel of this phone is amazing.

  • ive just got this phone i had it a day then took it back to exchange it, why you ask BECAUSE ITS PANTS!! the camera sucks the features suck the phone itself sucks and moto have the nerve to charge �300 at least dick turpin wore a mask

  • just like the v3, stylish fone with terribe features

  • I've ordered the phone from orange. Does anyuone know if the phone comes with a bluetooth headset? Or, any other goodies? Whats in the orange christmas gift box? Thanks

  • Great Phone. All those comments about lack off features are, i think, rubbish. So it hasn't got a megapixel cam. If i want to take serious pics i use a serious camera, so it hasn't got a card slot. i use my pod for mp3. i use my phone for..... calling people and that's exactly what this does and the interface is very user friendly and i looks awesome and don't forget people, the outside material isn't plastic it's fully metal and the package come's with a usb cable, BT-headset,CD (phonetools software) and charger. Eat yor heart out Samsung and friends :-)

  • looks good design and feel!!

  • I was never interested in the look of this phone from website pictures until I saw it & hold it in my hand yesterday (this phone was available in Hong Kong for more than a month already). After I saw it & hold it in my hand, I just can't resist the temptation & brought one! I think that the design is great. The phone look nice & the feel of holding this phone in your palm is excellent. This phone is small & the exterior material Motorola on this phone just feels amazing to the touch! The drawback is that the firmware is the same as my V3........what a shame! Motorola could have given this Pebl U6 a better camera & higher resolution main display (plus a little bigger screen). Anyway, I love this phone because of the elegant look, the small size of this phone, the feel of the material & how the shape of the phone fall so smoothly in my palm.

  • I've been using this for a while, it's a neat phone. But I haven't used it to its potential at all yet. I've been able to connect the Pebl to the computer via bluetooth, and also to another phone. However I haven't been able to log onto the web. The opening mechanism is pretty neat too, I found out about it when I was bored and decided to mess around with the phone. Over all it's a very neat phone... loving this than my v300. Big leap.

  • We'll heres some news if you didn't know already, Orange UK will be releasing the Motorola PEBL V6, but does anybody know when? thanks

  • Motorola- just design but lack off features...too bad.

  • too expensive!

  • In spain "only" 250 euros.

  • i loved this phone until i discovered it has a vga cam, what a waste

  • How can you seriously sell a phone with not even a megapixel camera????????!!!!!!!!

  • fantastic phone brill asseccories

  • $600 for a differnt version of the RAZR. And other countries getting cooler and slimmer version. Shame on you motorola

  • Cool phone, love det design, i have the v80 now, but im gonig to get this one:)

  • it's 2005 not 1985 more memory and at least 1 to 2 mega mixel cam and card slut and better cam and the people who wrote down the bottom saying it's not about the features dudes your paying out like $700 to $900 so really you want features for paying top $$$$$$$ the samsung d600 look cool

  • i just bought the phone..whole look of the phone is very nice...outside looks cool too..but opening mechanism is very unusual.you could drop the phone very easy..no bluetooth headset included..too expensive for a phone same as other moto phones...good phone for a girl...

  • hahahaha this phone is even selling for more than the Vs7 here in Hong Kong....and the Vs7 is not only thinner and sleeker but also comes with a better camera, larger and FAR better screens (internal AND external), a trendy one button opening mechanism, exchangeable covers....miles ahead of the U6

  • lol, these specs for $699 usd

  • hi was wondering if this phone COMES w/a free bluetooth headset inside the package ive read somewhere that it does and would like someone to verify that it also does in the united states.

  • i wud lik 2 no if the fone cn make videos or just do video playback cuz they r both 2 different things!!!!!!!

  • yes, it says so on the very first line

  • looks like the PEBL doesnt it ???

  • Isn't this The Motorola PEBL ?

  • i like the phone but why does it not have a big memorey , i like motos but they can not hold any songs on them only ones that do are the ones that look like bricks

  • I have actually held this phone and seen it first hand. This is a nice phone if you don't think so you're too damn critical and don't know what you're talking about.

  • I dont know why Motorola release this fone for? It is even worse then the V3. I will definely wait for the V3X to come out.

  • Does the V / U 6 have a built in speaker phone as the V3 does.

  • you guys have no idea how good this phone is. Just by looking at pictures and features, do not judge. Once the phone is in your hand, you will realize why this phone is truly one of a kind. One of a kind Open-Mechanism. None is like this,

  • All Motorola phones have got speakerphones now! Motorola do not advertise it as a feature anymore. Same is the case with MP3 player.

  • they updated it and changed the name of the fone to U6 instead of v6 jst last week... they also changed v8 to l7... i don't think this fone has a speaker fone and its got voice dialling and i think the keypad works de same as v3... hopefully it comes out soon i'm waiting patiently

  • Yes i agree with ice_man. My brother has a moto v3 and when i played around with it, it feels exactly like my v400. Exact same functions and a camera that has no visible improvement. IMO moto sucks.

  • since the v300 moto has been puttin basically the same funtions in all their phones the problem with that is that they arent advancing with the features eg 5 mb memory and VGA camera? this is fundamentally rubbish and god look at the price this is sooooooooooo offff

  • Does the phone have a speake phone option and how good is it?

  • im not a moto person & im still not i just hav to say dis is da uglyest mob ever 2 b made by moto. and i heard dis has voice reconisatation

  • Can anyone tell me how the buttons work on the moto v6. I have been informed that they are touch sensitive and don't make a sound upon touch can anyone confirm this?

  • What is the diference between the service called ... Push to talk (VoIP service) and the cellular phone with only push to talk... Can i use the phone in the same service? thnks

  • why does motorola have to be stupid like nokia and se? you make 2 different versions of some phones! for what? just make them quad-band, i don't think it will cost them more!!!!

  • even $399 sounds a little bit too much but might be the retail price, T-Mobile will get the phone, it should be $200 with a contract.

  • Look wonderful...Motorola is great. I was wondering,all wallpapers I free downloaded from www.freewebs.com/phonobox to my nokia are 128x128 pixels but V6 display is 176x220 .But,if I by v6 my pictures maybe will be distorted?

  • $1,399 for this rubbish???!!! Is this some kind of a joke from Motorola??? $399 sounds more like it!!! Motorola really disappoint people!!!

  • bad phone no useful function... less internal memory, no card slot

  • I would go for the v635 as there is a card slot to upgrade the memory.

  • v1050 is not over $1000, this phone is due out to be around $400-500 for MSRP, if it makes through marketing release its going to be SRP and go down to >$390

  • I do not understand the pricing either. Why are the v6 and v1050 $1399? Has someone actually ordered these phones at this price, and is happy?

  • Motorola phones have the best styling.

  • this is a killer phone, you guys have really thought b4 u designed.I think u should upgrade it by including a radio/fm.My rating 9/10

  • Well to be true to you and most importantly to myself I LOVE the v6. its better than my v600. I mean the is nothing wrong with my v600 I would love to get v6 now because it just discribs me

  • I have a V80 and i think i will replace it with the V6, unlike other comments in this page the v80 was a terrific mobile for me. Like the V6 they're not cutting edge technology but very stilysh.

  • Maybe I am wrong, but it sells at Weltronics for that price. I've checked earlier, fell free to check too.

  • 1399.99 has to be a typo. if htat's the actual asking price, I'd be very shocked with Motorola. That said, this phone isn't even out yet, and quite a few of you have slammed it like no other phone before it. At least let it hit the market before judging it's character.

  • Ascetically and technically its a beautiful mobile, as is the V3 Razr. But I will never, ever buy a Motorola! Why? Because the grahical user interface is damn right awful. From the graphics down to the the layout of the menu and lack of speed. Have they changed it with the V6 Pebl, lets hope so. Otherwise again like with the V3 Razr they will kill off what could be an all time classic. If Motorla need a hand in designing a GUI, hell I'll give them a hand!!!

  • S 1399.99? How Motorola can justify a price like that? Even if it was made out of diamonds and platinum it would've sounded ridicolous: it is a phone, and will be replaced by a newer model in a few months.Another nice toy for the rich and famous!

  • What's with the complaining all about with this phone? If some of you bother to even read up on the features, you'd see that they've done a great job combining tried and tested technology from the 500v and 600v series into one nicely done package. I happen to like it. For those of you complaining about the VGA, get a real camera, if that's all you want to do. The fact that any of these companies can combine technology together like they have is amazing. 5 years ago, a cell phone with a camera inside of it was unheard of. Some of you were still flaunting a Star-Tac! I do agree that it's high time that they come out with more memory available, but I've also heard that you can dump some of the unused features on the phone, which would then allow more memory space available. Nevertheless, there has to be a good reason behind not giving the buyers more memory space, aside from simple greed (in this case, there is none, other than to buy an new phone......) To be blunt, this phone was originally made for women, it wasn't until later on it became more universal (women like softer lines and brighter colors....). Regardless, the features and the look of the phone is makes it's own statement of the person welding it. If you hate it, go elsewhere and stop gripping.

  • Yeh, now i wouldn't even consider buying a phone without a memory card slot (you would have thought this would be a standard feature by now). But i guess everyone has different cups of tea... Still 5mb isn't enough.

  • I think it simply looks fabulous! Even better than V3.

  • How are the specs the same? its 256k color, edge, push to talk, etc. I'm not saying i like the phone, but be accurate and thorough before ranting off!

  • what s this? ---- no card slot!!!

  • this phone is very nice .....its looks the part......even though it hasnt got the best of camara it is still a very stylish phone and would def get it ....

  • Come on motorola!! VGA camera that is pathetic!!

  • This is just an UGLY V3, it has the same specs!!

  • it needs more memory 5mb no card slot no instant video just playback and for wich no mp3 and no radio and the Second external monochrome display is black and white no color on the front and no mega pixel no real tones sooo moterola this is 2005 not 1985 what a shame i stick with nokia and samsung

  • I am the daddy i love this phone

  • This device does not have a very appealing design. I love the V3 design. I wish Motorola would make phones with more memory; add an expansion slot if there is battery power to spare. I can't imagine 64MB of flash storage would cost that much more. I would pay any money for a V3 with more storage memory and faster processing power. A phone with a powerfully CPU and long lasting battery infinitely better!! I wish there's a way to submit opinion directly to Motorola. Peace.

  • i hear this phone has a cool stoke-to-flip feature, as it says in the name, stroke the phone and it flips open, can someone exlpain to me how that would work, as i it would be a bit odd in the pocket u see, there like a special way u stroke it something or a button u must press lol dont ask me its just what i hear

  • eric, people are posting their first reactions to the phone. We have been giving some images of it, and a spec. Therefore we are entitled to have a say. Maybe eventually it WILL come out, unless it gets cancelled. Also, we cant always have a perfect phone! so stop moaning. As all phone companies make different designs aimed at different people.

  • So is everyone that posts on this 9 years old? Learn to spell. And the phone isn't out yet. You can't buy it, no matter what you say.

  • i was thinking about the motorola v6 because have already have the v3 but what ive heard it really turn me off i really want aphone not only to talk the walk but also to walk the walk

  • this phone is ugly. it looks like some kind of pod. its certainly not my bag of potato chips.

  • my advice is dont get this phone it's full of crap features very stupid you pay loads of money for a stupid phone really crap it's like bigger then v3 a man was showing me in a shop and he thinks it's a load of rubbish and so thay bring out a black razer amazing just paint it black and look what people buy but i do like the samsung e720 thats a good one

  • has anyone noticed that this phones features are not as good as the v3 or are the same there isnt anything that is any better. so here we have another backwards step for motorola

  • Honestly, all you people who claim you have this phone, I did some research and Motorola has not released this phone yet; please explain to me how you have it. I'd love to know how to find one.

  • if this phone is cheap, then it is suitable for mothers they only know how to make calls and know nothing other than that BEST FOR WOMENS

  • it's a cool phone but in the other hand it's only a fashion phone very little feature's on this cell phone but if you had the moterola v3 and want an upgrade i dont think this is the right one it's bigger and same feature's has the v3 i'm a moblie phone shop owner and it's a shame it's a sexy phone but moterola just love's there sexy looks but the new moterola it's the best i think it's the v1150 ? 2 mega pix ????

  • COME ON GUYS IT'S ONLY A MOBLE PHONE !lol! ive got a nokia 3310 and still works but let's get to the point right it's a good looking phone may not have the features like some other phones have good bye :)

  • ive just got this cell phone it's a stupid phone no features on it need's to be in the skip like the moterola v3 just looks no features but the moterola v1150 is the best it's a shame about this cell phone never mind

  • motorola pls make cellphone like N-GAGE pls.....

  • Phone looks cool to me, I think all people will enjoy it unlike narrow minded Dean, besides I'd like to point out that important is spelt with an "m" not an "n." Also, it would be "It has no memory card" not "is is no memory card." Motorola is spelt with an "o" not an "e." Another is one word, just to let you know. Honestly, please do not put "and the gays just..." I find that insulting and read it as an attack on or disapproval of gays; this is not the forum for that discussion. Oh, and one more English mistake, "it's" is reserved for "it is," the way to put possesion on the word it is "its." Please find an education and stop being naive.

  • it's a nother v3 except it's bigger case and what a load of crap it is no memory card only 5 mb and only video play back and no mp3 and other thing's i hope moterola know a memory card this days is inportant but it's only a girl's phone and gays just looks a fancy phone and no features

  • only for girls agree??

  • Sweet

  • V6 = V3 re-organize into a different case.....another crap phone trick to make money from stupid consumers.....what a shame!!!!!

  • well i got this phone from a normal mobile phone shop for �550 and i did not needs to asking about the features i was thinking it was there eny way but it was not :( the moterola v635 has more features then this crap and i went back and swaped it for that phone :) never again lol

  • seriously this phone aint good just looks no features you pay and see your money down the drain lol i dont understand there v630 new mega pixel has more feature's then this crap

  • well this is a nother mobile from thats do the same then the v3 but i dont think the v3 is the older version it's just a nother phone the sound of it only 5 mb and no video and card slots sounds out of date just like the v3 whats the point of makeing them thay dont have the fetures

  • this fone has a bundle of crappy functions. its motorola v6= lame x lame.i would neva buy that fone even if it waz a life and death situation.its a bundle of crap. i woulnt even accept it for free and they want it for $2000. screw this. there lots of other fones that are far better than this and r 4 times less than this lame 'device'

  • seriously $1300? whats that in UK pounds? �800? dearest mobile on earth. you cant be serious

  • i think this phone is not worth a dime, u could get a phone thats 10 times better and cheaper than that, like the v635. and the price is really over priced ($1300)

  • The price is ridiculous. I jsut bought the V3 and now I'm thinking about going with the V6, but the price wow.

  • Hey, it's going to hit the market at about 1300 US Dollars.... I know, it's rediculous!

  • frankly.. think all the v3 to v6 series has great looks but little real features/functions. basically sort of moto's ans to nokia's "fashion accesories" hps. all the same..anyone knows when it'll come out in s'pore? thinking of getting it for my dad..

  • The big question is how much is it lets start with that and when is it gonna be out

  • what about a cost? how much?

  • good looking phone. how much it price?

  • I currently own a V3 but this some how does not seem as stylish or good looking, but maybe mor slick. However it does have a few extra functions to make up for it. However, I think that the new nokia 8800 style phone is better, and sorry motorola - will be switching to nokia as soon as the 8800 is out!

  • Moto is good n bad... the v3 is the same thing as the v551 v600 v 300 v400 they all do about the same thing.... n the v6 i think will be the same....they need to change there sh*** around make it better we need more... n more time for video capture

  • i wonder what attracts attention... the design is quite new and freash but the functions.. motorola maybe u can consider of adding something in it?

  • does this phone have push to talk ?? because here it says does but in other reviews it says that it doesn't.

  • I love it...

  • Does Anybody out there know when this handset will be available in Australia?

  • i just saw this phone today but not the comercial product...!! and i can tell that this phone is so fashionable...!! and it has casing with maroon color (dark red mixed with purple) so great...

  • Yes it does have blue tooth for all those who were wondering. I reckon its awesome but I haven't seen what the screen is like yet. The new buttons look really cool but I wonder what they're like to use. Some say they're easier and others say they're harder than normal. I guess we'll just have to what till it come onto the market. Can't wait. Looking forward to trying it out.

  • mmm PEBL

  • what? moto v690 in diguise?

  • what? moto v690 in diguise?

  • This phone is not great, but for sure much,much better than the crappy V3 !!

  • hey ya'll. i just saw this phone today. i was wondering if i could get ur opion on which one is better this one or the v3 razor.

  • This is not the v6 I was expecting, this looks like a variation of the v690, a so-so model released as a fashion phone in the Asian GSM markets. It has no blueooth and the ability to record video clips.

  • sweet fone, i love it, can't wait plz release it

  • Not impress at all !

  • 4096 colour outer screen? but it looks like a single line mono display a la panasonic x70 to me? And why still no memory card or useable on board mem? Also - still has naf phonebook of my v3 where it shows every number as a seperate entry even when you input them as say 3 nos for one contact!!!! Not impressed. can u tell?

  • @ Savvy, Ever read the specifications list :( ??? YESS, IT HAS TEETH THAT R BLUE ;)

  • Moto is missing the key feature memory card?!!! Or they did it knowlingly??? What about phone book memory 1000*1 or 1000*5. Come up with good features also as per the standard

  • does any one know if it has bluetooth?

  • What is the price range and who is going to be the carrier for this phone? anyone knows?

  • No, it does not have a memory card slot, and it's really a pity. We could only hope that Moto insert a memory card slot before they ship this beauty in to the stores!

  • It's such a pity, it's a really pretty design, but doesn't have a memory slot... or does it have one?

  • its ok could be better with more features

  • Oh now i can see what the phone looks like! A glasses case! Funny design lol

  • More pictures:

  • Standby & talk time way too short!

  • Cant really tell what the phone looks like, all the spec is good part from the memo like you said. There is no IR but people might not need if it you have usb.

  • What's wrong with Moto? 5MB of memory! Too bad, it's a pretty phone..
