  • Moto Q is such a great phone and should be re-introduced fully re-packaged with the current hip features (e.g 5megpx camera, hsdpa, 1ghz cpu etc) but the design should be retained, especially the keypad. i've used one for a record 5 years with the worst of phone handling and unimaginable drops yet it is still intact. the key pad has not shown the slightest wear.

Is it full version, can i edit microsoft word, excel & powerpoint file? My second question is whether i can use this as a modem? Pls answer anyone.

  • the best phone for my busy life... I love it because its a practical phone more like a mobile computer than a multimedia scam. It does not have a powerful photo sensor that reaches 5 megapixels or even match with the e71 phone, but it has a distinct look and feel and the value when you purchase it. besides why do i need a good camera where in I'm practically running about to earn more money with my career... I have my digicam with 8 megapixels to take care of taking pictures when im free... Its a manly phone and durable even dropping it a couple of times. And best of all it is powered by Microsoft Windows Mobile. It may not have wifi but inserting the wifi minisd is fuzz free and buying it together with the moto Q cost lower than buying those expensive multimedia scam phones.

  • does this phone support java ?.. like opera mini

  • Hi! I'm going to buy a phone.. and i want something that can use the Internet always.. can this be the phone for me? is the memory appropriate for using the Internet? i'm looking at two units, the Q 9h or the Q 8? or other recommendations? Thanks

  • Hi Ruth! Battery life is good, not as fast as V8 or V3x. It basically depends on usage an average of 2-3 days .. but one goodie pt would be...is the life span of "low battery" status it lasts a pretty long time before draining out =) another feature i love is the auto search in messages if your looking for a message just type in a keyword/subj or the sender name without even going to any menu "find". just key it in staight and it will automatically search for possible data you were looking for :) and same as in sending a message you can just type the receipients name and it will automatically search forit without the hassle of going thru the phonebook.

  • Had one of this (CDMA) for 1 month, got back to the store and changed it....worst phone I ever had! 0.o 1 - Camera quality is terrible (1.3 HorribleMegaPixels, at a incredibly poor resolution) 2 - No 3G or Wifi (for wifi you must buy a U$ 40,00 MiniSDLan card...doing this you will have Internet, but no storage space...) 3 - Windows Mobile 5 (sllloooowwwwwwwww, veeeeeeeeerrrrrryyyyyy sllllllooooowwwwww, at least on this phone model); 4 - Constant "freezes" (and then reset); 5 - Hard keyborard (but at least it is QWERTY); 6 - Bad multimedia quality reproduction (video, mp3..) I changed it for a NOKIA E65 and it was the best thing I did! Very happy now! =D

  • Hi...yeah...i am have bot a black moto Q8...so far i have only seen black...and its because rubberized material is usually black...in terms of battery I only got one battery but also pebble-like portable battery charger, which is like a battery that can charge ur phone. in terms of battery life, for me is kinda of acceptable as I can use it continously 2 daya without charging...

  • I have a question.... Does Motorola Q 8 GSM comes in silver color like Q CDMA counterpart??? So far I've only seen black Q GSM, and I really like the silver (metal look) one.

  • I must say I am impressed by the screen, even though it 65k color only, because the contrast is absolutely brilliant...photos during web browsing doesn't differ much from what I'm used to seeing on my LCD...

  • Its lot different from CDMA Q whole software is reworked and its much stable than previous CDMA

  • couldn't stand it anymore!!..i bot it at 1utama for rm1200(usd360)...what a beauty...i am thinking now that those nasty bugs found in cdma moto q doesn't apply to this model..because it brand new software...WM6.

  • i luv the black shiny d-pad...speed oso not too bad...tried it out at klcc...

  • its software being WM6 now...does those old problems reported on the cdma MotoQ still apply? Can any1 out there comment on this?

  • saw this black beauty in klcc over the weekend. what a gorgoeus piece of art...I especially like the d-pad..very classy...screen size was adequate too. Played with it for quite a while. Software performance was adequate for me...my current phone being a n6680....however i am really not sure about the battery life...I know tat & software stability was a major gripe for the previous model(i.e cdma motoQ). But has any1 tried the GSM one? software is also different now...WM 6. gsmarena hope you all can review it..THKS!!!

  • The Q-GSM does work with Skype for both Chatting and Voice. (Download the Smartphone version and not the PocketPC). However, i find that listing to to Skype is ok, but i need to talk quite loudly for people to hear me on the other end. Also, it only seems to work in speaker phone mode or blue tooth headset mode. It doesn't seem to work putting it to your ear.

  • Where can i download software for my Motorola Q-6.0 , need help guys..websites?

  • Attention: Don't buy from e-buy-global.com ! It's strange that they got mobile phones 70% cheaper, e.g. 8600 Luna - $150. It's that odd, that it doesn't even cover production expenses... So, my advice: don't even write to them. They aren't really from Italy! Their host is somewhere in Israel! It might aswell be some kid playing around behind his PC, and getting his money off our backs. When I asked for their company's registration number, business rate, or something like that, the director replied to me they haven't got it for anybody. 'Cause that's something that has to be made public, so anyone may verify it. Thanks! Bye! P.S.: Please tell others, too!

  • [quote]How to Maximize the Power of your Battery: New batteries must be rapid charged for 24 hours, prior to their first and 2-3 uses. As all of our batteries are new, they are uncharged when you receive them. All batteries require a "break-in" period; so don't be alarmed if your battery doesn't hold a full charge right away. A new battery commonly will show false full charge as indicated on your cell phone or charger. Leave it on the charger for 24 hours! For the first (3) Three Cycles, please make sure to charge the battery fully (24 hours) and drain it fully (by using it until it will not power up) before recharging. This will properly condition the battery and will ensure that it will operate at its maximum capacity. This is recommended for all cellular phone batteries. Lithium ion (LI-Ion) batteries are available in a variety of capacities to best fit your cellular phone requirements. At least 30% more talk time than NiMH batteries of the same size! This is a memory free, Li-Ion battery with High Mah capacity. At full charge, this cellular phone battery gives very good standby & talk time. A new lithium ion battery's full performance is only achieved after 3 complete charge cycles.[/quote]

  • my batery is loser!!

  • "URGENT: can i use this phone here in the philippines?" - I saw this on on display on several shops here in the Philippines. So i guess the answer is yes.

  • Are you sure that you are killing all of your applications, and not just 'closing' them? Go to: Start > System Tools > Task Manager. If a lot of stuff is running go to 'Menu' then 'Kill All' IMPORTANT - Before you close this screen go to 'Menu' and 'Exit'.

  • I�m really trying to love this phone, but it has a lot of problems, it keeps turning off, and it keeps freezing, And it�s slow; don�t know if I�m the only one with this problem or if all of them are like this. I�ll check the new software out, I haven�t downloaded it yet, I�ll let you know how it is. Thanks for the address.

  • URGENT: can i use this phone here in the philippines?

  • Hey Ali, did you update you windows mobile 5.0 yet? It can be found here if you have not, and this should make it speed up -

  • Chase: Yes, every phone with Windows Mobile preinstalled has support for MP3 ringtones. I suggest you that, if possible, buy an unlocked phone in order to avoid the crippling usually done by the carriers (altough I never heard of a crippled Windows Mobile phone).

  • hi, i just got this phone today, its a bit slow, i still dont know how to use Mp3 format as my ring tone, battry life looks good so far, i got it in the morning around 11am, now it around 2am battry still full. its cool checking ur e-mail with this phone. it has MSN and i was chating with a friend for an hour, the full keyboard helps, any Q... let me know

  • How can I get Windows Mobile 6.0 Standard upgrade?

  • Need some reviews of the gsm version. TELL ALL people. We all know the cdma version of this phone sucks. Hopefully the gsm version is different.

  • the phone is amazing i been using it for a week now the battery holds up excellent mp3 ring tones is supported no probelms feels and look good in your hand very good voice calls

  • wow, it took them 1 year to release this phone. last year, the features were up to date, but right now, they aren't anymore. it would've been better if they released it earlier.

  • Does anyone have this phone yet and can tell me a little about the battery life about this phone?

  • Does this phone support MP3 ringtones? Thanks

  • Motorola phones are great, this is an amazing phone you can add Wi/Fi no problem just buy a mini-SDIO Wi/Fi card ($50)and there you go!(The Q h9 can't do this!)I'ts got a great design and is super rugged and the keyboard is great. Best PDA I ever had.

  • this HP is already available, why GSMARENA still put "coming soon"???

  • Yee i know that very clearly, fanboy

  • yea FanBoy. Calm down. Indeed, they do not fulfill their promise. We only see the CDMA version instead of GSM.

Beside the extra slim looks and cool features RZR came out as GSM first and this helped them so much since it was easier to use with any GSM provider. I don't know which side of the bed Motorola had woken upon to come out with the Q in CDMA and drop GSM in the process. They couldn't even notice most brands are coming out with WIFI featured devices, yes! That�s what the customer wants. They need stop their promises and lies and come with something concrete. ============================================= Which customer? Richest Customer? Poor Customer?

If you want WLAN, just buy WLAN Phone. If you want WiFi, just buy WiFi Phone. If you want Radio, just buy Radio Phone.

  • this phone hasnt been released yet, plus it does have Wi-Fi enabled trough the miniSDIO slot, shame is that you cant have a 2GB miniSD and wifi at same time but youll never know when they are gonna release a wifi/storage SDIO card. all in all this is a good phone, the CDMA version is too and ill be getting it when it comes out.

  • Relax, this phone available on US market from end of 2005. Now they put this phone on EU market, and here is not a shame...

  • in the first quater of this page you can see a silver Q

  • I bought CDMA "Motorola Q". When i use to shopping centre, wow... many eyes look at to my "Motorola Q" because slim, and the casing is great aluminium / titanium not like other mobile the casing from plastic. The great is too many modify you can do it to this mobile. All program in this mobile is open, you can modify. Like other mostly Motorola mobile can you modify such as you like it. Motorola make official forum for "Motorola Q" user. Like Motto of "Motorola" is "INTELLIGENCE EVERYWHERE".

  • announced July 2005 and not even released on GSM version up to now (march 2007)... what a shame, MOTO!! W H A T A S H A M E ! ! ! too bad most ppl now went with Blackjacks and Dash because they are SMART enough to satisfy what customer wants!!!

  • Motorola q mut have wlan.I will not buy these type equipment with absence of wlan.

  • Well thank you fellow Moto users for helping me so much. It's been a week now, and nobody bothered to answer my simple question. Apparently not one user of the Moto Q knows what his phone can, and cannot do. Thanx again.

  • I am in love with this Moto Q. It has all of the options that I need to work. The sleekness of this phone is very nice. The only drawback is the battery time. If you get the extended battery you are fine. All in all I like the phone and the choice I made.

  • Moto_Q std This phone has two important design flaws, imho it runs a flavour of one of the most unstable operating systems ever created on this planet AND the numeric keys are WAY to small for a large handed (fingered) person. If you don't program your numbers, your'll be really pissed at the equal size of the numeric keys and the alpha keys. Feature wise the phone is great, it's a computer which has gsm/cdma featurers. All you need is to install your winMobile software to get some functionality you want. It may even be possible to run java progs on it with a proper java_ENV emulator. I've found some guaranteed ways to hard-crash the phone I've got here with some included software, which is NOT good at all, because you need to remove the battery to get control back over your Moto_Q ...

  • If you are planning on using this for business -- Don't waste your money or your time with this phone. Verizon has wasted my time trying to repair and replace this unit. I just ordered my #3 replacement and now wish I would have gone with a blackberry.

  • I purchased Q as a replacement for an Audiovox PDA, what a mistake that was. After using the Q for about a month it died on me during a Sync. I receive a replacement Q, and have been using it for few months. What a JUNK, I am so sorry I purchased it. The phone is bad, I cant stand it any more.

  • Well i just got my Motorola Q the other day, and I was so suprissed of the Great Features it holds... It's Like a RZR and the Rest of the Moto Phones into one...lol... Well I really love this phone, so I suggest to other cell phone users, to Buy it... Its the best... Like my new saying, "Im Juss Rolling With The Moto's."

  • With no wifi or voip sip capability its a waste of time for motorola. Its the same as every other junky wannabe internet enabled device out there.... different keyboard wohoo.. thats special .... Someone should class action these cell carriers when they cripple features like bluetooth and IP. They are perverting technologies they claim to support.

  • Johnny I never said the phone was bad..... I just said that it has improved since its first debut.. please read posts carefully before accusing someone is wrong.

  • I just got the Q from Sprint and it's better than expected. After charging the phone for 2 hours, it was ready to go. I left it plugged in while I input all my contacts, calender, notes, etc. Pictures for your contacts, what a great feature. The Hotmail and Comcast Email Setups were extremely easy to setup. Emailing the pictures of my contacts and downling them into the phone was a piece of cake also. I'm waiting on a 2GB miniSD card to come before I decide to laod anything else on the phone. the ringtones are better than expected, but I still am going to need to find 10-20 specials ringtones or songs for faimly and close friends, different from the ones currently on the phone. The backgrounds are cool also. I ordered some cases, holders and pouches off ebay so I'm waiting for those also. Does anyone have a "Skin" on their Q? Are they really east to take off and do they leave glue residue on the phone? I'm reading the manual for the second time, just to be sure I have all the features down, but all the ones I need I've already checked out except for WM Player. I don't think I'm going to load too many songs on the SD Card though, it'll probably drain the battery fast!!!!! Does anyone have those Motorola OEM Headphones that silence when a call comes in and turns the music back on when the call ends. I saw these on Ebay also, but wanted somemore info before i bought them. Thanks

  • you both are wrong the Q is a ok phone now the black jack sucks it has around an hour and a half of talk time

  • Don't listen to the previous guy, the EDGE/GSM version has not been released yet. The phone he is talking about is from samsung called the blackjack. Its something of mutant phone based on its looks. The samsung I320 (not the I320n) looks a whole lot better really and is speed wise faster. While also theres the HTC S620 that looks better then the blackjack too. Either of those two you should look in to if you can't wait for the Motorola Q. Also the bugs with the Q have been ironed out since its launch and has improved vastly fixing many of the beginning issues. I have tested a recent CDMA/Black Q and loved the difference in speed compared to before.

  • Yes the GSM verison has been released. Its called Samsung blackjack and if you go to phonescoop.com all the user reviews give the blackjack a 4 out of 5 where the Q gets 2 out of 5.

  • Does anybody know if the real GSM version of this phone was ever released and in which countries? I've seen the CDMA version but never the GSM

  • This phone constantly locks up on me. I had it replaced once and still the same problems. Often I will place a call using a shortcut key and it will say "Dialing..." and never connects - nor does it let me cancel so i have to remove the battery to reboot. Also, i often hear nothing when answering calls. Callers later inform me that they can hear me but I cannot hear them. Another reboot - ant that takes a minute or so to complete. I can't stand this thing. I want my Nokia back.

  • this is a phone???!!! its more like a big slab of aluminium, wonder how u'd look calling with 1 of these

  • The GSM version can be used with other providers as it's classed as a world phone and is not locked. Your sim card should allow you to work with your current provider as long as they use a band your phone can access. Quad band means that it supports up to 4 different transmission bands and as long as the local provider uses one of the bands your phone supports, you can connect to that network

  • nice phone but service can suck in all ways period.verizon will give you a run around if this phone breaks down.i wonder why!at first glance q is a kick butt phone.but after the first month your ready to trade it in.DO NOT BUY THE Q PERIOD.

  • Well thank you fellow Moto users for helping me so much. It's been a week now, and nobody bothered to answer my simple question. Apparently not one user of the Moto Q knows what his phone can, and cannot do. Thanx again.

  • Is there any way to edit Word files on Moto Q ?

  • I have had a samsung SPH-i500 for 4 years and it just gave up, best phone I have had for business. Palm operating system and still one of the smallest packages. Did not have any of the new stuff, ie wifi, 3g, etc etc. I just tried this Q phone for the 14 day trial and gave it back to verizon. I carry 2000 contacts in my business, the phone could NOT handle this and would lock up for over a minute trying to query a record. If you also were trying to call and it did not go through, you could get way ahead of the phone of pushing buttons and not know where you were, the default was to put it down and wait 1 minute, it eventually would flush out the button requests after the short cup of coffee. I am tending to look for a palm operating phone, the softare is more logical than mobile 5. For example, palm searched on last name, made sense, mobile 5 searched on any sequence of the letters, first or last, bloody confusing when you think you are looking for a person last name or first name and get a mixture, the mobile 5 sorts on the last! Even when thumbing down, if I went to the T's, the screen would come up blank and I would have to take the short coffee trip prior to getting the displayed results. As I look on the review screen I see a lot of techies, does not have wifi, does not have this or that. Maybe I am just hitting the age that I do not card about the actual technology, juts the results it gives me, 1 minute for a 2000 record search is dos days, does that tell my age!

  • WTF?! This GSM version is NOT available in North America at the moment, so quit asking!

  • i love and hate it. its got eveything except a notepad or something to type in beside tasks. also bad battery life unless u use the high capacity batt. BUT y would you? it makes the phone all fat and takes away the sleekness of it. its also kinda slow... wish it had wifi and gps

  • hi i was just wondering if anybody knows if this phone has a sim card for me to put in my fido chip? and will it even work with a fido sim card? thx for ur help

  • no wi-fi

  • no wi-fi

  • Here is the page that you asked me to find. It is 3 reviews about Motorola Krzr K1 in it. Motorola Krzr K1

  • hi, motorola Q, i realy injoy especialy the bluetooth service, now i am using my internate facility with no wire connectabity thanks motorala

  • I don't understand many of the gripes about the Q. I've had "stick" phones and two handed operation is a thing of the past; IMHO. NOT haveing to use a stylus is the future. My Q is a much better phone than my i730 ever thought of being and can do everything the i730 could ... that I want it to. (I never edited word or xcel docs on my phone anyway.)

  • A similar device that is GSM based worthy of consideration is Samsung i320 (EDGE) adn i607 (UMTS\HSDPA)

  • If I buy this phone in the US can I use it in Latin America...Panama for example??? Looks like I can since we are 850Mz...but I would like to confirm...Thanks.

  • Moto Q pro is coming to Vodafone ;) www.66mobile.com/phone-pictures/motorola-pro-Q-n­orman.html

  • u want this phone in GSM?? ... well i think it will come out in GSM as well... i m not sure if it will come out in USA (as GSM) but i should be coming out in india and dubai as GSM

  • Sry for the bother, happened to read it was dual band and didnt work around the world, would it work in countries like England and India? thanks

  • It will work fine in Iran/Persia providing its not sim locked.

  • i wanted to know if i can use motorola Q in IRAN or it just can be used in some specific countries ??

  • Umm so im a little bit confused...I thought that this phone is gonna be released for GSM but Verizon seemd to have snatched it...So is there any confirmation that this phone is gonna come out for GSM? I really want this phone but I refuse to get it with Verizon.

  • This phone looks great but is a pain to operate. I miss lots of calls, dialers say the phone rings and rings with no answer. The system freezes and needs to be reset. Verizon gave me the run around. They told me to go to the store for replacement. Got to the store they told me only data tech could send out a new phone. Seems like an awful lot of quirks. Do not buy this phone unless you like being frustrated.

  • The UMTS (3G) version is coming out in Q2 2007 followed a GSM Q.

  • Hey Mike, there are tons of free apps out there. I have a free notes program on my Q that works great. Go to everythingq.com and look at the forum. Lots of great info to make this the best phone for your needs.

  • hey is this phone going to be released in canada in the gsm version or only cdma

  • My Q phone frequently fails to dial out. It will say "Dialing..." but never go any further. If I hang up and try again, I'll get "Operation failed" over and over again until I completely turn it off - sometimes twice. I was also disappointed to discover, after I'd bought it, that it doesn't support "Notes" (voice notes, yes, but not typed notes of the kind that Outlook supports).

  • hey This one is fantastic , nice design ,this is the slimest smartphone worldwide ,but it's screen is not touchable but compare the price to the others , it's realy good .

  • wow.. a motorola officer just gave a shout out.. well, i'm not waiting for this handset longer, i'm buying nokia e61... tough luck for motorola

  • Hi guys, this particular phone is on hold due to features being reviewed. Please do not take this information as correct on this website. We will release handsets with new and improved features that will fit with the market that you live in! Wi-fi is also a feature that we are looking into as well as 4G tech. Hope this helps. Anybody having issues with there motorola handsets should contact there dealer. Motorola prides themselves on providing excellent after service. thank you for all your opinions.

  • this phone is good, BUT it misses 3G =/

  • Hey!!! Motorola ... When you do something please do something which is "IN" the market. It's a good step to have a new phone in your collection but please upgrade it with Wi-Fi, Infrared, MP3, Increased in-built memory say 1 GB or more. This can really stand out your product in the market.

  • This phone keeps freezing on me! Motorola better do something about this!

  • The Q is the best cell phone i have ever seen i live in jamaica and i'm a teacher i'm all about technology and i fell in love with the Q the first time i saw it it's very cleaver and slick i want one right now please send me info on the Q thanks much if possible send me one complimentary see ua.

  • fuc. coming soon.it s not coming and if it comes with 1.3 mp no body except while 4mp cameras on the market.lyers.

  • Thanks Mike. No wonder this phone can't make it to the Philippines - it has lots of defects.

  • i was in verizon branch & saw this phone, The design & some of it's features are nice but the phone itself is made of some sort of plastic toy phone.

  • perfect phone!!! does this phone is now available in philippines??? then how much??? can u compare this with other phone??? is this phone is exclusive 4 bussiness minded or also came with the fun of teenager... im a teenager and i really like it...

  • be smart...running tons of programs at once is going to freeze and crash any device running windows of any kind...be sensitive to the number of things open at once...visit that great little tool called TASK MANAGER once in a while and you won't have any problems...i have had one for a while now and never once has it frozen or crashed...use your head

  • I dont know why all you people are going crazy for this phone. This phone in US has a 40% return rate. The phones OS keeps freezing and crashing. I used it for EVDO the EVDo portion is good but the OS is crap!!! Verizon has it in the US and i bought and two weeks returned it due to it crashingon me at least 5 times a day. If it will ever come out for GSM it will not be any better. Do not get this phome!!!!

  • Does any one know if a black version will be released?

  • moto needs to get the GSM/3G Q out ASAP. they are loosing valuable markets in Asia and EU. Nokia and Sony Ericsson are making mobiles for the world not just the US. This is how a mobile maker should be doing business or they will be left behind. I do think that GSM and 3G has a wider adaptation around the world compared to EVDO [I might be wrong] so it came as a shock to me that the Q was released as an EVDO device first. I would love a 240x320 QWERTY WM5 Smartphone as a second phone, still nothing in the market ATM [Samsung's i820 hasn't been released here either]. The Nokia E61 seems nice a couple of buddies of mine have them. however I've invested heavily on WM apps so I don't intend on going back to non-WM mobiles anytime soon. But the E61 is really really really tempting.

  • The "mini sd WIFI" memory card will not work on any models including the "Q". *But, It does work on The TREO 650.

  • Unlike "mike" I do not think this is the worst PDA/smartphone. He must be experiencing User Error. And as for the freezing up, mine has never done that. I have had this phone since they first came out, and I have had no problems with it. Just the fact that onlide at verizonwireless.com it is not listed to download ringtones.

  • Does this have WIFI support over micro sdio card or not.If i insert a micro sd wifi card any ideas?

  • United States: If I buy an unlocked version will I be able to pop in my SIM and use w/ Cingular?

  • the e61 is off the chain ....motorola has nothing on nokia .....much better phone !!!!!

  • HI EVERYBODY is the Black Version of Motorola Q already camed out or is still something that will come in the late future? I'm waiting for a Motorola Q GSM SIM free version to come out, but, if there is a Black version, i would get that one... if anybody has any kind of information, please let me know THANK'S

  • The design brings a fresh look to the "regular" smartphone look, but the O.S may turn a few people away, also how about trading the camera for some Wifi access. Thanks.

  • I'd say...better buy the Nokia E61. It operates on Symbian OS (never hangs..), got WI-FI, EDGE & 3G compatability. No camera (don't need it anyway, digicams are still the best in resolution for me). I got a smartphone before that runs on Windows, and it hangs all the time =)

  • i have got to mess around with it a little bit and it is a nice phone. i like that the screen isn a touch screen and still has a qwerty keys unlike most phones. and this one can actually fit in your pocket. unlike alot of smart/qwerty phones. its a great phone and cant wait till the gsm comes out so i can use it.

  • what i dont understand is why do u offer phones only in certain areas? does it make sense for some reason that i just can't seem to understand?

  • in my area phnes like this are rare,so this extra-ordinary mobile system if i have my way to one i won't excitate to accept it with a profound gratitude because it's very attractive and full of facilities.from NIGERIA

  • Had a chance to play around with Moto Q from Telus Mobility which is a NON GSM provider. I'm kinda dissapointed. Its a real nice sleek design, however the operating system seems a bit slow. Even when dialing there seems to be a delay. The big dissapoinment is that it does not have WiFi. Most of the PDA's today make it mandatory to have WiFi. But Q does not. I would tend to forget about how slow it seems if it had wifi. On the up side it takes pretty nice photos with the 1.3 meg camera. I personally will not buy one if it comes out for GSM.

  • This is not a GSM Phone....Can't find 1 for gsm only CDMA....WTF

  • July 21,2006 I have now had the Q for a couple months and it is by far the worst pda and/or phone I have ever had. DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE! It is completely unreliable. It locks up several times a day and I have to remove the battery and reboot. It locks up on simple tasks like going to your contacts, answering the phone, pressing send, on and on. What a piece of crap. Verizon has no answers!

  • Have not had good experience with motorola's, so in reality...its still just a motorola. And its kinda ugly.

  • This is not a gsm phone..

  • Show more pictures and d camera shud hav a higher mega pixel

  • The real grade of the "Q" Design : 9.5 Features : 8.5 Performance : 8.5 *Overall, it's under-rated by our voting poll.

  • come on people wake up i think the real probelm with people not understanding the q is they understanding of basic and formal comprehesion to read and follow simple guide lines thats why its not common sense as people would say, all the time its called applied thinking if it was that common every single one on the planet would have it...

  • i am the proud owner of a q i had some of moto phone before that gave trouble the q is an excellent device besides being ultra thin and full of hardware and unlimted software its a device i will advice any one to get and stop hitting out at the device the phone is just superb.when gsm users get a chance they will realize the true power of this fantastic device .

  • This isn't GSM phone.. is it? I thought it was TDMA?

  • That's Hot!

  • The Q is awesome. It is very thin and lightweight with a hellova lot of functionality. I dont understand the bashing of this device. It is certainly not a laptop..users that gripe about the Q need to buy a laptop and keep their pie-holes shut. Here is the true skinny without the bias: PROs: thin, lightweight, easy navigation, lot of functionality, VERIZONs high speed EvDO network and web browsing on this phone is super!, nice keyboard. CONs: No editing software to write notes etc. (must purchase), the thin form factor is not very comfortable to talk on (kind of holding a peice of bathroom tile to your ear). In conclusion this is not a replacement for a laptop or other computer but an enhancement to those devices. More versitle than most PDAs and lighter in weight. No Wi-Fi but if you get the unlimited plan for data, wi-fi doesnt matter much unless you constantly cannot get signal (then again why have a cell phone?). Now go forth and chuck your clunky cell phone for a Q. And if you cannot handle the Q, buy a queer blackberry... Deez

  • Love the Q. pros: Easy "one-hand" navigation. Great looking device. Works on Windows 5.0 Great camera. Many add-ons we can add. High Speed internet. Can Read 2GB memory card. Cons: No wifi(I don't need it). Battery life is average. Can freeze but much less than the TREO. Hard to operate at first. OVERALL: GOT TO LOVE THE "Q"

  • it looks really interesting :)

  • What a piece of junk. It is barely worthy of a name like Smartphone. Navigation is clumsy and the display never shows you which way to go for a different function. You may never find out where you are in the phone menu or how to back out to use a different function without wiping out what you're currently doing. Its such a bad feeling you dont want to continue with it. CDMA-Verizon has an exclusive on this but I know 1 woman who returned it in 1 day in favor of a Treo/Windows Mobile5.1. The Windows 5.1 is awesome and is overall, much easier to run in a corporate IT environ. if running Windows et all. (Blackberry/RIM-stuff is nice but yknow what, no thanks...New patches daily....weeeee what fun...what a headache-and Blackberry Ent - works great but its all based on covreage). Q is poo

  • Can you download true ringtones(short clips of the actual song) like I could on my E813? If so, how do I download new ringtone for this phone? The stock ringtones are awful.

  • Can any one tell me this mob is GSM or wat i think the MOB is not bad it look's great i have herd that it came out for CDMA is it ture?

  • this sux it doesnt have wifi wat kind of smartfone doesnt have wifi get the e61 much better choice and aslso better screen

  • for all of u hu think nokia suks compare it to there smartfone its thin and has better features like battery nd also if u said that nokias colors screens was the worst how can u compare the q is a 65k scrren nd has no mp3 player and the nokia screen is a 16 million not 65 thousand like the q its a billion times more collars and has an mp3 player. bout the reception i was wit my frends 1 hu has a razr and one withe a samsung the razr had noservice the samsung had one bbar and my nokia had full reception

  • This phone would be better with wifi but what sucks is the fact you cant buy the minisd wifi card to go with it because the idiots at motorola didnt put enough power to it. otherwise its a great phone minus the fact that the smartphone windows 5.0 has essentially outlook and thats it...

  • Has any bought the new silicon skin for the Q yet? I ordered mine on boxwave like 2 weeks ago and is still on preordered. I'm trying to cancel it now... Does anyone know if the skin fits Q that has extended battery?

  • IT COMES WITH 2 Batteries; an extended battery and a regular battery.

  • IT'S Official; The Motorola Q will have WIFI on their GSM Version. BUT, It will only be available in December 2006.

  • Motoroal proved that they are the best so far In Mobile phones technology Great Quality pictures easy to use menu not like Nokia u have to click on many thing to get for what you want. Nokia has the worth's resption and worth's color screen.

  • its plastic!!! what are you thinking moto

  • nothing compares to nokia nseries, heh. You are right, nothing compares, cause everything is just about better....

  • Small brother of Nokia E61

  • I think this one is better i before had moto v3 moto, SLVR L7, moto v3x hope this model come's out for GSM this mobile is this best with windows and every thing yeah

  • *You gotta Love the "Q" Played with the real model at work and have decided to get it.

  • noyhing compare to nokia nseries

  • u can get aim on ther right?

  • the battery is terrible; if you don't always turn off applications you can't get through the day.

  • Nice phone but wow.. this thing is really ugly!

  • there will be a UMTS version end of year according to moto CEO Ed Zendar. Hope to get it, featuring WM 5.0 and 2mpx and wifi

  • I got the Q and think its pretty good. It is an excellent phone first which is what I want. I love the wireless sync since I don't have MS Exchange Server at the office. One problem I have is that wireless sync only seems to download email from the root directory on my desktop. Is there any way to download email from the other folders on the desktop that is currently gettng skipped? I can't seem to create additional folders on the Q's email folder tree.

  • The New York Times technology editor had a pretty critical review of the Q. Take a look here: Overall it seems the hardware is great, but the software is pathetic. He gives numerous examples. Read the whole thing.

  • For all of you who are wondering, the Motorola Q is compatible with BMW bluetooth. My 2005 BMW 325xi (no idrive) syncs perfectly with my new Q. It loads all numbers in the "contacts" list. It works even more seamlessly than with my razr.

  • Will verizon support MSN messenger on the Q?

  • I just read at qusers.com that Q cannot edit office docs, and it can't browse internet beyond usual wap-adjusted pages. Dissapointed

  • i made love to the Q. no wifi? no abilty to go anywhere in the world w/ it? i think its a toy. i wanted it... but jsut can't have it.

  • hey prk is this phone rocks?

  • I got my q 3 days ago and recently put facade 1.1 on. Does anyone know of any skins that have been tested successfully on the q?

  • The phone was released May 31, 2006 as A CDMA/EVDO device offered by Verizon Wireless. I do not know if this device will be coming to GSM technologies soon.

  • Anyone has any ideas if they are going to have a GSM type?

  • Yeah, but... WHEN will it be available in BLACK?!?! Engadget had a early release photo of it in black, but can't find any word on when it'll be retailed.

  • How do we know it's for CDMA? Because it's been in the know for over 6 months. If you pay any attention to phonescoop.com or any other phone news source then you would know. Motorola and Verizon announced that the Q will be released May 31 online and June 5 in VERIZON stores.

  • Talking to Motorola the CDMA will launch first with GSM hitting late 3rd quarter

  • I saw one from my inlaw he works for motorola and this is verizon, not gsm I think verizon have it first and will be out in the market next week.

  • It's going to be CDMA on Verizon. GSM will come by the end of the year. ON Cnet.com they have Ed Zander (pres) saying the Q will be released in a couple of weeks.

  • How do you know that its finally coming out? And for GSM or just CDMA?? Cause I want this phone BADDDDD!!!!!!

  • This phone is coming out next week. It took longer than expected but it's coming.

  • I don't think this phone will out at all. It has been too long since motorola announce it and like other said, very very poor features.

  • i do think its a lovely machine but the design looks obsolete. though it is very slick and light for a PDA, its does lack the omph factor, MOTOROLA could try to make their products look more sturdy than fragile.

  • no Wifi, no Touchscreen, Poor camera, and by the time its released, i wouldnt recommend anyone to buy it, because within a year it will become obsolete. These specs are 2 years old. The I Mate Jasjar is a performer, as well as the Nokia equilavent.

  • Did this phone have touch screen? I think not:(

  • I was told 1 year till ready in the us. testing in europe now

  • does it have wifi?

  • Thought people might like this lil' video from CTIA:

  • on the motorola site, it shows that the motorola q is available now. where is it available? everywhere i see, it says preorder

  • With Q you can edit docs becuse it has mobile 5

  • only CDMA version available.. (confirmed) Good news, theres a UMTS version end of yr with 2 mpx camera.

  • Will this Q be able to edit office documents?

  • I overheard a conversation with a Verizon rep. There probably will bea GSM version, but Verizon has agreements to have rights tomarket it on their network a few months before any other carrier/system can have it. Can anyone confirm this rumor?

  • Mennnnnnnnnn.... u Motorola guys always take forever to release stuff... PDA's been out for at least 5 years now and ur guys still having problems?...Gawd!!! I mean u done the MPX 200 and MPX 220 already so what problems can u possibly have that u cant sort out since last year when the communication went out to the public of it's pending release? Only ever used Motorola'z (bar my mistaken stint with SE z1010)... so luv ur products but gotta say... ur product delivery is absolutely rubbish and u cant even begin to calculate ur revenue losses just from late releases cos now all the xda, mda pro, blackberry etc have taken so many customers already that would have luved to have the Q instead. That suckz a$$!

  • Guys who are wanting this handphone. Trust me, you got to wait quite awhile. I'm currently working in Motorola (Tianjin) Electronics. This phone is still in it's testing period. We encountered some problems and are still trying to solve it. Motorola Liberty Field, Motorola New Jersey and us are working hard on this handphone. But trust me, this phone is exceptionally good. I'm using a prototype and must say, if you got the money. BUY IT. You will not regret. Cheers

  • it's selling now in bulgaria for 350 euros.

  • Looks like the Q will only be available for the American market. No GSM - only CDMA!

  • Is Motorola going to upgrade certain features in this Q series? Is there anybody know? I am currently using Treo 600, and has been expecting to swap to Q for a while... I would be willing to sacrifice the convenience of touch-screen function, getting a slim phone body in return. But everything about Q seems to come so slow... It is so frustrating...

  • The Q has not been released by Moto as of Mar 06. Do not pre order from any on-line vendor as they are going to rip you off. be patient ladies and gents.

  • only the verizon (CDMA in USA) will be released there will be a TEST GSM Version at Q4 2006 . yes the END OF THE YEAR. =.=

  • No wifi and touch screen??? What's up with that?

  • yeah, sounds crazy but i might even switch providers for a year just to have this phone!

  • Love the features of this phone but disappointed only dual band for now. Live in US but travel throught Asia and need a good quad-band phone. Looks like I have to find another model to meet my requirements

  • fine

  • Just to let you guys know, initially this phone will be offered on CDMA only. I'm sure most of you know that already, but now it is confirmed by Motorola. Still hoping they release the GSM version by the end of year.

  • I've enjoyed my MPx220 but miss having a qwerty keyboard . I've loaded compressed movies and mp3 tunes on my mini sd cards with good results. The sound is great with the ear buds. I hope that with the keyboard I'll be able to browse and email easier. Pictures are fair in 4"x6" print if you hold steady. Q has better specs. so it should exceed the results I gotten with with the MPx220. Now I think that I'll be able to trade stocks fairly easily compared to the effort required by MPx220 key pad. Since I have about $300.00 worth on mini sd cards I was happy to see a unit that would use them.

  • nice specs, but waiting to know more about battery life and video capture quality. this is the first Motorola i've ever lusted for.

  • I have used the CDMA version of it..i loved it..so waiting for the GSM version..

  • i want this phone so badly i cannot wait the only thing is that i wish it was 3g so when america becomes cool enough this phone will become handy until then im sticking with my sidekick 2 i hope the sidekick 3 comes out soon

  • I would not order a Q from Trado yet. Based on motorola's latest press release there won't be a phone ready untill q4

  • Does anyone got this phone from Trado? I think it's not out yet, but they sell it?!

  • I ordered Motorola Q at Trado but they sent me the mail that i have to order minimum 3units. I don't think they even have the phone. Some how they don't seem reliable. During ordering process site never mention minimum number of units to order.I wish someone can let me know if u got this phone from Trado.

  • Ordered Motorola Q & Samsung d860 from Trado a month ago. I received a confirmation email and order number...but no phone ;no response. these guys seem very unreliable. don't even think they have the stuff they advertise.

  • Some of you need to relax, what do you want from this thin piece of technology. "hi this phone sucks because it doesn't have 500 GB of flash memory, no 21 inch touchscreen, its not running unix, i cant play world of warcraft on it, it doesn't make me breakfast in the morning, it doesn't walk my dog, its useless." come on people be realistic they are not going to make a brick phone with the crap you want in it, you want to know why because you will complain its too big.

  • what kind of processor ?????????

  • well i just ordered from trado, kinda skeptical.. well see if it arrives, did you get yours and are you in the usa ? thks

  • this phone is cool but it is not a phone this is a computer

  • why would they want to cancel such a good phone for GSM? i dont think they cancelled it

  • Radio fm!radio fm!what wrong with u moto!!!

  • "The long-awaited announced Moto Q smartphone was cancelled in the end of 2005, as well as the number of Motorola handsets. The model will keep on roaming from one exhibition to another, but it won't get to the shops, exactly the same story was with Motorola MPx." You can see this information at mobile-review.com

  • Too bad. The phone is canceled

  • You all know this has been cancelled. They are going for 3G instead and that will make it ready by Q3-Q4 2006. But there will probably be a CDMA version out earlier.

  • I have a friend who works for Motorola and he gave me one. I have to say the phone is incredible. Yes it is missing Wi Fi but for the person who is concerned about size this phone is it. It is so thin you don't even realize it is in your pocket. The phone will be released on the Verizon network in about 6 months. They have since discontinued the GSM version since Verizon took the CDMA version and stopped the GSM version from being released. The phone is supposed to be released for about $750.00 when it comes out.

  • no wifi?!? it's pointless to buy a smartphone without wifi, especially if your a student using it for assignments and such. lame, i'd rather get the new treo. shame this one really looked good.

  • I wonder how much it will cost? It's not the very best you can get, since is missing Wi-Fi and 3G, the screen isn't too big, but on the other hand we have that thin design - similar to V3, which will cost and we have Windows Mobile 5.0 Anyone has some information about the price?

  • It's good. It doesn't have Wi-Fi, so what? I don't need it. I'm just looking for an eye-catching smartphone with rich multimedia, and is there a better one than a Razr-like shaped smartphone powered by Windows Mobile 5.0?

  • according to this review, it does have Wi-Fi, but even if it doesnt, cant you buy a mini-SD card that has wifi or 802.11?? does anyone know?

  • seems some people dont know a good thing when it hits them in the face i am a treo650 owner has no wi-fi either and the touch screen i have disable wake up people motorola is going to rule

  • Full QWERTY keyboard. 3 page essay on a cellphone?

  • moto makes this so you know they're gonna F up this phone somehow

  • "Hey... news flash for all the complainers... Blackberreis DO NOT have WiFi either." Actually, there is a blackberry with Wifi. Its the BlackBerry 7270. Its available only through Blackberry and even sports voip capabilities. It is however only available through Blackberry direct.

  • ppl need to get the features up higher cell phones are out of date get the tecnology up

  • Does Q allow viewing/editing word docs? thanks

  • Ya laaaa.... I think motorola is jooking when they said phone with this kind of spec still under testing, still coming soon, 65k screen? others rushing out 16m,1.3m camera?polyphonic ringtones? got people still use polyphonic as their ring tones? But I do agree, it got the look. Oh ya, for people asking for touch screen?U all must kidding asking touch screen on a already small screen.

  • True the atom have touchscreen, 265k screen, bult in wifi, 2mp camera, flash, what is motorola thinking. This phone is king if released 6 motnhs ago. Kinda too late, now there is even no edge??? 65 k screen, 1.3 mgp camera and no touch screen. Motorola better change some specs or they will lose a large number of potetntial customer

  • By far, my personal opinion, if Moto not launch this product asap, their market will steal by xda atom, as O2 will launch atom on December, me also maybe will buy atom if have to wait this moto for another six month (even I am fanatic fans of Moto).

  • Fucntion wise i guess N61 beats this beauty but design wise i prefer this by far!! N91 also do not have camera and i hope the Qs camera will be good unlike all other motorola 1.3 megapixel crap.

  • how great is this phone compared to the Nokia E61? I'm having a tough time deciding which one, although I am a fan of Motorola.

  • It has bluetooth. it just doesnt have wifi. Would wish the wireless apps can store stuff to the card. ie vindigo, avantgo and email. cause the stock memory is pretty low. MD

  • The Motorola Q is most likely a replacement for people that screwed over by the defective MPx220. Since it uses the same MiniSD slot(instead of TransFlash, like most of Motorola's newest offerings) and has a lot of similarities with the MPx220 as well. I was one of those poor suckers who bought a MPx220, so I know all about their faulty P2K ports(quite possible the worst thing Motorola ever designed). I'm just glad that the Q doesn't use that worthless port.

  • Motorola listens to the customers but care about the providers: no WIFI - so you have to buy more airtime, no 3G so you surf the NET slow (even more time), and of course they get in bed with MS - the biggest ... I censor myself. Do we really expect any MS product not to have bugs? Q is a Sony Style product: nice but no substance.

  • No WiFi No bluetooth why shoul I get it?

  • Hey... news flash for all the complainers... Blackberreis DO NOT have WiFi either. Cell coverage whiel slower, is better because it is more available than WiFi anyway. If it only had WiFi and no cell data, you sh*t more bricks as well. Just get over it. This phone will ROCKR U. (pun intended)

  • damn i was expecting this phone to have wifi, but they dont have it in this model instead of V910.. a real turn off man..

  • Man i want to be the damn first one with it im just waiting for the release so i can sell this blackberry.

  • No touchscreen?? how they expect that u move on windows menus?? come on u really need a touchscreen on a smartphone or PDA. u know it's like windows without mouse

  • WiFi doesn't matter in a device like this. Get over it. Thishas the right mixture of technologies and battery life. I'd rather have a phone that doesn't die on me than WiFi. The keyboard looks like a killer feature as well. Short text emails, notes -- perfect.

  • if the phone is not yet available where do all these people get theor hands on one? I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE ONE

  • No Wi-Fi, it's a joke. Why Motorola doesn't listen. No wi-fi as a result of that no way I buy this phone!

  • How can you have a rating poll for features and performance for a device that isn't even out yet??????

  • Some of you folks are weird, ever consider that some people out there don't need a megapixel camera, bluetooth, edge, umts? Also note, not everywhere in the world has UMTS yet! Motorola is doing a good job, trying to please all markets. Probably when the rest of the world catches up, they'll released more phones suited to what's avaialble.

  • No WLAN (Wi-Fi)? No 3G? Is it a joke? ...or maybe mistake on the site!?

  • peopleee...This phone is fantastic HOWEVER!?! The battery life, speed and screen resolution and pixels are equevilant to a standard motorola. This phone is reliable but i sugest you do not rely on it in tough or desparet situations. Other than the the standrad relyability its a great phone etc..

  • It seems that Motorola likes to put the free stupid space in the new phone editions like Motorola V3 with the fat thing and this also has that, do something better like a real razor fine phone.

  • Personally I would say the Motorola Q is a brillant phone , in particular I miss WIFI/WLAN or 3G connection possibility. Further without the keyboard (vitual keyboard is available) would increase the size of the screen and allow better picturing and work ease. Hopefuly Motorola could consider a "Motorola Q�" with the above mentioned configuration.

  • I saw this phone in person. A motorola client came into work and he had this phone. It really is a marvel to see up close.

  • it is cool!!! i really want the motoloa Q.

  • Nice design but it should be included with FM Radio, TV OUTPUT,3MP CAMERA WITH MOVIE 30 fps,TOUCHSREEN and if possible built in micro hard drive.

  • Touchscreen,and wifi both if not there then its not worth

  • gooooooood

  • From the specs, this phone looks great. Granted WiFi would be nice, it makes up for it with EDGE. The touch screen issue- with Windows Mobile 5.0 for Smartphones, I dont think a touchscreen would be all that useful. Besides, they are annoying in phones built like this because you accidently press things on the screen, it gets oily from touching your face, and touchscreens are fairly fragile when it comes to being in a phone that is not protected by a flip. I think this phone will kill the Treo, or at least put a serious dent in Palmone. I think it is about time WIndows Mobile came out with something great, and this is it.

  • hi everybody plz explain me that if this does not have touchscreen system.Then it is completely useless.

  • It's a great device but the MEMORY could be doubled and WIFI could make this it one of the best in the market. *Remember the RAZR impact*

  • Once the production goes to sale, there is no way to upgrade the hardware, but software only. The only way you can get anything changed, is if you go to Motorola Production Press, and tell them to upgrade the hardware (doubt it will happen) but they are the only ones who can do and modify changes.

  • this is a great phone,but it lack large memory capacity. thus, in all motorola phones the batteries don't stay long. please, i appeal to the technicians, enginers et tera to update(improve) the batteries. however, as soon as you lauch this product, please inform me.

  • Note: Phones, that still displays "Status: Coming Soon" already have alpha/beta versions for product testers. There are others out there that signed a contract with Motorola stating to test the device, and get back at them with a full report. Though, the device is still at production, it is, and usually faulty. So if you see any sellers, that sells this particular type that didnt officially come out yet, just wait; becuase: A) There is no such support or warranty for beta products. B) The device might not work properly. C) You might get scammed! Since it isnt out market-wise.

  • If there is no UTMS or WIFI, 262K on the screen, Edge, or a 2 Mega Pixel Camera I won't buy this phone and doubt anyone else will buy this phone. If they really one to kill the sales on this phone this phone like all the others will oly remember 10 Dialled calls, 10 Missed Calls and 10 Received calls. New replacement for Sony P910 coming out soon with UMTS. I think I will get that one instead, supposed to have a 2 Mega Pixel Camera as well..

  • This is a great phone, but it lacks WIFI/WLAN, UMTS, FM radio and large memory capacity etc. You must not leave any feature out. You have great visions but lacks futuristic technology. It will be a shame if such a sexy phone like the Moto Q is lunched without the afforementioned features. Motorola please don't do that to us (your customers). We expect to see tomorrow's technology handsets in today's market with the brand name; Moto IQ. This phone is too good to be seen in the market without the right features or specification that matches it. That would be a shame!

  • For more information on the phone visit - the largest Motorola Q Forum on the net.

  • İt's very good.But ı prefered that FM radio and 2 MP video camera. Because FM radio very important for knowing news or football game scores and very most :)

  • could they not have added more..2.pix cam, 252k colour,fm radio,videocall..this would cover most of reqmts..would not have to look fr a phone fr sometime

  • Amazing design..i think. Motorola is my mobile phone fav. But where is FM radio ? i just waiting for it coming to my country.

  • Looks good and features read well. Is the bluetooth compatible with BMW bluetooth pairing. ie. can you scroll through the phone book on the radio?

  • Pls add UMTS, Camera at least 2.0 mpx and display 252k colors and then I'll trade my P900 brick for this nice phone :)

  • oh my i started to almost cry when i saw that phone. i'm soooooo happy i want it. i'll pay $1k to get it before the release. my v3 sucks compared to that phone.

  • I am realtor and real estate investor I would like to buy this phone for use in SUPRA LOCKS to open MLS Listed homes for showing yet I would like to buy this phone to travel overseas and use it easily. I want to know the price and what carrier in the USA would allow the use of this phone on their system

  • This is certainly a great phone, especially the window mobile 5.0,but motorola should consider the inclusion of Wifi so that it compete with its hp contreparts. It is a lovely communicator, certainly I will purchase one as soon it is lanuhed. moreso, I do hope the body of this great phone will not pell up.

  • I hope they give this phone 3G so people can surf the net faster. The new XDA will have this option, while using the new Windows Mobile 5 this new system would be put to waste without offering the customers the full features of Mobile 5 on a new product not to mention adding more numbers to the call recordes on Missed, Dialled and Received Numbers. They should be able to remember at least 30 each!

  • this is great and worth owning.i will like to know the price......

  • no edge no wifi no radio, i prefer to have a block fully equipped and cheaper than this

  • this is lovely

  • I think this device is perfect. For those who want and expect everything like wifi, more storage. . ., what do you expect. The thing is thin! I'm sure moto will come out with another version fully equipped. But for the look and size of the Q it's got more features than I would expect.

  • Where is the FM radio? where is the wireless internet connectivity? i'm gravely dissapointed motorola :(

  • Nice...i guess...if you enjoy walin' round with a brick in your pocket.WHY o WHY can't a company take THESE features and put them in a Sony Ericsoon t630-ish phone ?? design features,and,of course,price !

  • awesome phone. i love motos thin designs - why would anyone want a thick phone now? this model is like the treo 650, but without any of its shortcomings. touchscreen and radio would have been nice additions but they're not necessary.

  • I believe this is a Smartphone and not PPC Phone. In short this is fully key operation and do not have touch screen.

  • Better looking than an Xda

  • how thin,just over 1cm what have windows 5 unleashed

  • WOW, a must have PDA. Thank you Motorola.

  • from the look it is great...but isnt that button is so small..huhu =)

  • This is a great phone, but it lacks WIFI/LAN, UMTS, FM radio and large memory capacity etc. You must not leave any feature out. You have great visions but lacks futuristic technology.
