Motorola ROKR E2 - User Reviews

  • Do i have any opportunity to buy it today?

  • Not so far juix (linux+java) jajaja

  • *facepalm*

  • good device for android

  • I brought mines in 2008 (used) and still nowadays, 21th January 2016 I still use it as my main cellphone, I like its resistance, I can watch movies and listen music with it, and even access to Internet using Opera mini. Recently Im using it to play a Gameboy color game. From time to time I read pdf files with it too. Another thing I like its is size, its small, but not that much. Fits perfetly in my pockets, something that modern cellphones can´t do.

  • The worst cellphone i ever had.... Since i had at least each 5 different models of nokias and sony ericsson...couple htc and samsung galaxy and huawei

  • I ordered Moto Rokr E2 in Germany half year ago. It appeared to be the original one, manufactured by Motorola in 2006. I've done firmware upgrade from motofan.ru, and everything works fine. Although I don't use phone much, owning it makes me feel happier. Very satisfied. Authentic rock&roll design from vacuum tube era of mobile phones. Excellent sound from 3.5mm output, goes well with Sennheiser Momentum.

  • Motorola is the best, Rokr E1 and E2, the top handphone, i like it

  • A very solid mobile, very easy to modify with firmware upgrades, for overcloking, support for 8 Gb (up to 32 Gb) SD cards and more sound options. The battery after overcloaking drains entirely in about 8-12 hours. Working just fine after 7 years, without complains.

  • overclock is available try thet to speed up your ROKR the max overclock of cpu is 624 MHz, yes double standard value on 312 MHz but the effect is drain on battery

  • try to flash with newest firmware like a Dark shadow or Dark Lizu feel the new apps home nice to use try it dude !

  • great phone, had it for 2 years, its was powerful at its time (good procesor), it was slow on reponse though,

  • i have one!

  • very slow

  • Had 2 of these phones. My daughter has my second one and even though it is 4 years old it still works perfectly. It was a cool phone in it's time.

  • best phone ever

  • Haha! Nice phone :)

  • Exelent phone

  • wtf don't even try such a stupid thing what about the 3.5mm there isn't any protection to it but the the phone is a real monster the signal strengh is uncomparable

  • have u ever tried ur in water it's waterproof

  • very good phone

  • You can get on ebay.

  • good phoen easy to modification,for all e2 user go to indonesian link there are many software.....

  • i have been using this phone for some time now, and i love it. unfortnatly it have a problem, how do buy one online?

  • correction for gsm arena..the sd can be expanded to 8 gb microsd card..me using 4gb..

  • maaf ini bisa juga di upload ke palm.

  • bodi:cukup bagus juga dilengkapi tombol musik.fitur:os nya itu linux coba lihat cari main menu settings about pasti ada kata linux.lalu itu bisa diupload ke mac os 10 leopard langsung ! caranya mudah klik main menu pilih file manager pilih mac os,exe pilih 10 snow leopard secara otomatis homescreen berubah dan di about ada tulisan mac os 10 leopard

  • Best reflash is "Black Storm" and there is a patch to enable SDHC. I got a 16gig SDHC card in mine and it works great.

  • Is there any feature to get the writing on this phone larger, the wordings are really fine, somewhat difficult to read or do I have to change my phone.

  • Its really an awesome set.but only one problem and that is its too slow.

  • this is very cool phones, i guarantee it's very easy to flash or modified 'montavista linux' to newbie i suggested to learn about it on 'e2mod.com' or 'modmymoto'(for all kind motorola phones.

It's rubberized and it fell so many times only to bounce off the ground like nothing happened. It's perfect, buy it!!!Dont Wait..Im lovin It...

  • Rokr E2 was a stupid design. It didn't look like a 'rocker' phone. Rokr phone must be simple, tough, and loud. Maybe a combination rokr e1 design with the loudness of nokia n73

  • Firmware is the upgraded software that you get when you flash your mobile. It automatically replaces the previous software that came with your phone. eg. stock firmware such as the ilove3d_45P_VIII can be replaced with ilove3d_49P_blackstorm...you can check out websites such as or for details...good luck

  • Al-salamo alaikom, My brother Omar, to flash your phone is to update it's Operating system. flash your phone to new version will make your phone better. may had some brograms and the sound will become better and loud. there are many of firmware like Maxx III, Black storm and more. I used Maxx III, becouse it have lots of brograms need. to learn how to flash E2, go to www.modmymoto.com OR www.e2mod.com and learn. when you flashed it the warranty will lose. any Qustion Iam here.

  • Can some one help me specifically how to install a theme on the ROKR E2?

  • You can extend the battery life up to 2 days.. just do need some adjustment in the display brightness section.. you need to set the brightness level as low as possible(Such as 1 or may be 0). And you need to turn on the battery save option. Now see what is the difference now. By tuning these things up i had the standby time increased up to 3 days!

  • my motorola phone is a big mess!!!i just bought it few months ago then there are many problems on it...it has a defect on power supply(anyone who knows how much is that?)...i could not use this fone anymore...

  • Motorola ROKR E2 is best compared in Nokia 6233. In terms of price and Functionality.

  • hi bro! this time i want to ask you about best side of motorola rokr e2 then motorola e1? please making correct n' true information for me...please help me guys! ok thanks 4 u guys (^_^)

  • well i bought this phone 3 days ago , the camerna pic is good , video is very bad, speaker is also very bad , listning in headset is excellent , the phone software is slow this mobile access slowly , this mobile confuses evryone, i would like to advise instead of buy thsi phone u should buy any other nokia but not this this phone really suckx !

  • Yes i agree with u AV3, abin u choose the wrong device 2 give such opinion ! Look e2 is the most motorola device which has sites about its modding, skining&programing..just visite e2 modders, modmymoto & motohell u will find much many of skins,programs and softwares..that besides russian& chinas sites which i don't know thier languages..

  • There are a hell lot of themes and customizations to improve camera, sound, speed, etc at modmymoto.com, motomodders.net etc. motorola is famous because of the customiztion you can give to your phone MOTORULZ

  • to bad that the phones interface cannot be replace because there is no avalable theme so i find this phone boring sometimes because the phone do not suit my life style. Motorola should develope phones that is mixed with artistry design and functionality so they will never be left behind.

  • I've problem ,My phone is restart as suddenly if I placed it in my clothes I want know Is this defect in my phone ? or this auto restart is normal?

  • with fm, mp3, video, cam, at a very reasonable price, the phone rocks!!! a downside though is its battery life... i tried to use fm/mp3 but it shortens span oof battery to 5 hrs. anyone knows a better battery compatible with this unit?tnx! ☺

  • best phone in the market in its class cannot argue. please see for yourself Motorola has the best music phone in the market. E8 will prove it again.

  • i exactly have the same problem. my menu folders are gone, xcept for the games. bydway u can access to the phone settings by using the voice menu key located at the side of the phone. however, i already tried master clear but nothing happened. my main menu is still screwed. anybody has a solution to this? they say something like i have to install a new menu tree. i alrdy dowloaded one, but its an mpkg file. how can i install this file? what fw i have to flash so i can use it? im a newbie in flashing, so every help i can get will be really really appreciated. thanx to all. and a happy new year.

  • i have a problem suddenly all the menus dissappear and i think the only way to do something is to restore settings but i cant get to other menus like settings messages nothing just games someone help

  • Oh I'm also having the flickering (actually its a blinking) on my e2 display. It just happens during when calling, sending and receiving messages. I set my back light to take off after 5 secs, then the display just get dim, so when I call or send a mssge, the blinking happens. I wonder if it is just happening on every rokr e2? I think it has something to do with the influx of the signal when you start calling or sending a message.

  • anyone there with firmware R564_G_12.00.40P stock?

  • flash it to only u4 firmware and don't use any swab memory and let us see...

  • Actually I have noticed the flickering. I think they appear when you let the mobile in cold places for a while.

  • Has anyone of you noticed or experienced a minor flickering on your motorokr e2's display when there's a sudden change in signal strength? That is noticeable with the backlights inactive while the display is still visible. It also happens when your battery is nearly low battery status(also noticeable with the backlights inactive).

  • What is the model and the output power rating of the charger used in rokr e2? I lost my charger and I just want to be sure I'm getting the right one. As far as I remember it has something on the label indicated as Model: DCH3-blahblah, Input, Output and so on...

  • I have problem when i was flashing... it always error before finished at about 67%.... It's very jembut nguwil... it's called pejuh ngasu.. Am i have a corrupted firmware ? Thank you for all asu...

  • Yeah I agree with Ahmed.This phone gives complete value for money.Most people are under wrong impression, they think that only nokia phones will be good

  • Think of this phone as a platform. If you're into modding it, it presents the most customizable OS out there, being able to replace it completely, adding better CPU freq (thus addressing bat life issues), better optimizing for menues and player performance, SNES emulation, zmplayer, skinneable rockbox, quadband flexing, swap memory, overclocking, volume config. For all of this please visit www.modmymoto.com. If you're NOT into modding it, you can still buy it and enjoy it, use low bitrate mp3 and videos, OR go for Z6, which it has all the optimizations already (better memory handling, better cpu) but is not as customizable as the E2. Hope this helped you.

  • Bought it 7 months ago. Compact. Good thing about it is that it doesn't use the USB for the earphones. Decent photos (only 1.3mp though). Poor video quality. Decent screen size. Cool talking phone feature although I don't really use that. Great joystick (by great I mean it doesn't break down like other phone joysticks). Customizable. Poor battery life. I don't use this phone a lot cause I use another phone but the battery doesn't last a day. I kid you not. When playing music using the default player, it slows the phone down. Phone's pretty good but design could be better. :)

  • since this phone is Linux OS, i wonder whre can i get the Linux software? i would like my phone 2have the software juz like the symbian one. anyone? thanx!

  • What do you think about the keypad? Is it comfortable to write on? I�ve been told that although it is a little small it feels good. And what about the joystick? Is it all right. Thanks you guys.

  • i have this fone for about a year already.. i recieved it as aprice when we joined the motorola rockmo'to band competition and i find the phone really2 gud.. but heres the problem.. when i click the menu button or the navigator button? the menu wont come out... guys please HHHEEELLLPPP!!! i sooo love tis fone and obviously has a sentimental value... you can also me through [email protected]..

  • Hey guys is this phone louder than the nokia 5300 and does this phone has video calling.

  • ah..i forget to ask u about how to make the fone auto power on and off? i tried to make power on and off at alarm clock but it did not work!!

  • what can i do to make my rokr e2 faster,specially when i'm listen music

  • Good phone, I recommend to all.

  • nice phone!!!!!

  • For the music playback I havent tested it but it will depend from the network cause the network drains energy too. According to mobile-review.com ROKR E2 can play music up to 23 hours NON STOP with a headset, but in airplane mode. I would suggest you to read reviews in mobile-review.com

  • I don't think there is a mpkg program similar to that but maybe there is a java, but i don't know for sure. As for the videos yes you can play them in full screen. Also pictures. Brilliant screen by the way :)

  • yes i mean that..which firmware u r using now? u know (el azan) program? it is a famous program installed in nokia devices her in egypt this one tells u of the pray time daily...do u know any mpkg program acts like (el azan) program?

  • hi quest..since u know more in4 bout this phone i would like 2 ask u is this phone support full screen while watching video & taking pic?since it was a music phone, how ong it last to listen to music?plz help me.thanx!

  • I post this from my rokr e2 using the internet of my pc. Nice option. Wouldnt u say so?

  • Happy Ramadan back to all. BTW I am glad i helped. ZMplayer is a great app. The ability to play avi and mpg files is the best advantage of it.

  • hi quest... again i back to ultimate..i think this one is the best suitable firmware for e2 that can be modded and in the same time with long battery life..thank u very much about zmplayer edit file u sent before i used it and now i can play video up to 25 fps and 500mhz the default e2 player plays up to 15 fps and 280mhz as i know (ramadan karim)in arabic or (happy ramadan)..

  • rokr E2 rocks. I have downloaded the newest firmware version.

  • is it louder than 6233?

  • the photos camera is good but the video is poor..i hope what u mentioned come true.. what happen if motorola add 3G camera in e2 and increase its camera to be 2 or 3.1 mega pixel and let the device with no change it becomes rokr e3?!

  • Yes i agree that the weakest point of Motorola is its camera. But I am sure that they will advance in that direction a lot since now they made a 10 year contract with Kodak. I think they have started to advance. Just see Z10. Its 3.2 MP and has autofocus. However it is still far from its competitors in this view. But just imagine Motorola becoming the best in camera phones. Will there be anything left to compare with them in anything else? Time will come. Nokia and Sony Ericsson knows that :)

  • 1. Does it support animated wallpaper? Yes,it support animated wallpaper 2. Can I use video in phonebook entry? No,U cant use video in phonebook entry 3. Can I use images from memory card in the phonebook entry (without copying to phone memory)? Yes, U can use.

  • hi...I`ve some question b4 deciding to buy this phone....very simple ones though 1. Does it support animated wallpaper? 2. Can I use video in phonebook entry? 3. Can I use images from memory card in the phonebook entry (without copying to phone memory)? thnx in advance...I used the moto e398 (modded) and looking forward to this phone...

  • u agree with me quest that the most weak point in rokr e2 is its video camera..n73(with 3.1 mega pixel) beats e2(with 1.3 only) in this point..i was so angry..the music player of e2 is the best no way..the resolution is wonderful..the software(katz or ultimate) is better than latest symbian ones...the lake of 3G technology is a bothering matter too...

  • how is the speaker

  • Hey Ahmed. Long time no see :). The skins I like most are: 1. Eyes in the Dark 2. The one that comes with ultimate. I don't know the name 3. Ubuntu (But it need many improvements) 4. I don't like the stock (Alkali) too Yes you can extract the skin from the firmware. I think you can do that with samba (telnet). Just go and copy paste the skins from the folder where the skins are. This is where the folder is in katze3 and ultimate "\ezxlocal\download\appwrite\skin" but in kaleidoscope I dont think its the same folder. Since I dont use kaleidoscope now I cannot help you but if I find the skin I will send it to you by email

  • @quest what is the best skin u like 4 e2? if there are skins bounded with the firmware how could to extract them only? i like so much the skin came with kaleidoscope one but i don't like the firmware itself..i like eye in the dark skin(i install it in every firmware i flash) & beautiful moto one.. i don't like any way the default one alkali.. do you?

  • Good phone! Nice sound, high volume. The battery is a little problem, because doesn't stand for too long... Even though, very good phone!

  • HELLO EVERYONE my name is talha,my request to every user is that please if anyone of u know how to mode motorola phones please teach me also as i tried gathering every information i can to learn modding but i failed so i need a good teacher also please tell do i have to learn any language for modding or not ,i have motorola l9

  • Me too :)

  • ya quest i tried Kaleidoscope yesterday but as they said has bugs..the appearance is very good but i tried it for 5 min only! after that i turned to kat3..i am waiting to next update of it...

  • Yeah thnks Ahmed. I tried it. Perfect job from Gatillo. However now I am using kaleidoscope. It has many new features. Check this out: Its still a beta version so I am thinking to go back to Adrians katze3. Cheers friend.

  • @quest adriangatillo launched his final katz 3 yesterday ..very nice firmware i think he made good efforts in this one.. plus ultimate properties he added many useful things the firmware is different from the beta one..faster and more flexible..etc you should try it

  • The tutorial I posted here its not mine. You can find it here: Go here, maybe you will get better help

  • I think you can use ZMplayer, but i am not sure. However since you are not in a modded firmware try this: Step 1: Download ZMPlayer Step 2: Unzip the file .mpkg so it will create a folder with the files. Step 4: Connect your phone in Memory Card mode, and go into the .system/QTDownLoad/ folder on it and place the zmplayer folder you just uncompressed in there. Step 5: Open the .system/Java/CardRegistry file using Wordpad. You will see a file with lots of string corresponding to each of the midlets installed on your phone. Step 6: Copy this: [fa2b0132-bf34-f197-9df7-ee95da5dbf80] AppID = {fa2b0132-bf34-f197-9df7-ee95da5dbf80** NOTA*** Args = Attribute = 4 BigIcon = zmplayer.png Daemon = 0 Directory = zmplayer Eraseable = 1 Exec = zmplayer FixedAllPosition = 0 FixedPosition = 0 GroupID = ezx Icon = zmplayer-sm.png InstalledDate = 2007/3/28 JavaId = -1 LockValue = 0 MassStorageStatus = 1 MpkgFile = Name = ZMPlayer OsVersion = 1.0 Rotation = Shared = 0 Size = 5900K Type = 2 UserID = ezx Visible = 1 and paste it at the end of the file: Step 7: Reboot your phone, then open the main menu and you'll see it there This way works, because I installed it this way. Hope I helped

  • hey quest, can i use the zmplayer software even if my fon isn't moded? man, im having problems with this. i'd go to forums and everybody has something to say. then things get a lil' confusing. i just need one clear guideline. been to e2mod.com and it's still the same thing. your help will b pretty much appreciated. ROKR for life.

  • Yeah Ahmed. I use the Ultimate too. I like it better. Looks like more stable.

  • hi quest i am satisfied now with ultimate one..very stable one and fast but not as fast as katz 1 or 2..katz 3 slow with me specially when installing arabic lang..i just install volomodder program only with ultimate..ampd programs increase the frequency of processor but the device responds to orders slowly especially in music player..katz2 plays videos with (cutting fotos) not smoothing one but ultimate does...you spend (Ramadan) in replying to e2 questions only?

  • The video files that rokr can play are 3gp and mp4 but they must be recorded in 15fps or below. If u use ZMplayer than you can play .avi, .mpg, mp4 etc in 25fps.

  • totally luv d fon. but m having problems with mp4s. what type of mpeg4 can the e2 play? 'cos im really having a hard time trying to find one that the e2 can support. can this be changed if i mod the fon? please everyone help. ROKR for life.

  • No it can not run symbian based programs.

  • Hi, does this Unix based OS phone run the programs designed for Symbian based phones?? if not then where can i find programs for it? thanx

  • Yes it does have equalizer

  • Does this phone have an equalizer?

  • I think you can download the manual from motorola.com. There must be a manual in english. If not what support would Motorola have for their customers? Dont you think so ?? Have fun

  • Do you know where I could download the manual in English language? I purchased it in China so the manual is in Chinese and I can't figure out the features properly except by trial and error. Thanks,

  • Is it really louder than nokia 6233?

  • That is one of the best phones,it is very neat and small............

  • sorry @ earth angel by the way u have to make the program as root not ezx one..by office tools >modmymoto>phonewareman>mpkg manger>volomodder>choose root instead of ezx..thanks

  • @earth change!! it is easy to increase the volume of e2.. flsh it with either ultimate or katz3 firmwares then install volume modder program from (http://www.e2mod.com/) it is higher than n73 through the outer speaker and the ear pieace..

  • the phone is ok but i bought it with the belief that i could increase the volume. do you know how much missed calls i get. i ther is any way to do this please let me know because right now i want to get rid of it but no one will buy it because it is to soft. oh and why doesn't the phone alert you that you have a missed call or message, if im not at my desk i wont know that someone tried to contact me unless i check the stupid phone.

  • 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, on other forums, too!

  • i of da best fw iz katze3beta rigth now. Every1 should try it. Diz will not slow down in menu browsing and will not skip linez from songz............HaVoCZ

  • please somebody help me..why when i try to telnet my phone it con't fine my root folder.. i try so many time but it just tell me: login:root MontaVista ... .. No directory /root! Logging in with home = "/". #_ somebody please tell me why this happen

  • Is this phone have Equalizer

  • @Belal it is very easy..just unzip the program into ur sd > press on it >u have 2 choice whether u install it on the fone memory or ur sd card i recommend the first one because in flashing ur sd the residual mpkg programs icons remain but with no effect in the case of memory card installing...

  • Bought diz fone for 2 months nd enjoying it a lot. Muzik iz awesome after modding, even it outran N73 nd K800i in Matrax Benchmark by getting a score of 630 where N73 scored below 450 nd K800i scored below 400. 3d gamez runz a lot faster then dem, even the srceen quality iz da best i hav ever seen, dou da screen iz small comparing to N73. E2 iz da best..........HaVoCZ

  • @ahmed what do you think about iphone? i have question, i would to know how i could installing (MPKG) on my telephone.

  • perfect phone easy to use.... the mpkg are installed in the cardregistry you can install them manually editin the cardregistry, but all the new fw's install them, just click them with the joystick

  • @jameskj i have a few questions 4 u 1-did u try ampd changer program with ultimate? 2-did u flash before ur one with any of katz ones? 3-ur network coverage is well in ur area? (bad network coverage consumes more battery) @belal i dont know the mechanism of mpkg working but all modern firmware can install mpkg programs

  • Does this one has the pasword lock system for sms and aplicatiop as the previous MOTO UI hav????????? And what about the missCall alart like bebore?? plz info me if any E2 user know about those..thanks.....

  • Please i wanna know how mpkg installed

  • i had this phone for less than a month. i wasnt really satisfied but it's still a great phone : HERE's my honest review : Pros : Colorful Screen (although small) Great Build Quality Fanstastic Music Player Good OS, User Interface Cons : Poor battery life Poor reception Slow software (esp in the music player) Tough Keypad Bad Joystick I had my firmware flashed to Ultimate but it still ddnt change much. But this phone is better than ordinary walkman phones from SE (W700,W800,W810)..

  • Where can I get ketz3 firmware?

  • i have no comment about this phone, but i wonder that if this phone can perform full screen mode while watching videos & capture a pic?

  • Wooow i tried JBenchmark2 @624mhz results 428 My friend's nokie n70 music only 2xx in the result. (sry i forgot the exact result) btw, where i can buy orange side?? __________________________________ MotoHell.com

  • Telneting the phone will not delete anything. Telnet wont do any difference at all in your phone. It will only allow to browse your system files remotely from your PC.

  • ahmed', i wonder is that my files like massage in my phone will lost if i telnet my e2???

  • @quest with the new things i put in the fone it becomes fastest&loudest than ever that the max sound degree i can stand is 4 through the ear piece..!the processor overclocked to 512 mhz (i am worried about 624 mhz) the ultimate is wonderful one but there is something bothered me much..the processor consumes much energy so the battery drains faster than ever...what a luck!!

  • Hey PaNdIx1988 I haven't used 6131 but I have E2 and I can say that till now this is the best screen I have seen in a mobile phone. I don't think 6131 screen is better than this. However, as i said I haven't used 6131. If you want a review about ROKR E2 check this

  • Hye Guys, Loved this fone 4ever, even now I have an E65 at my disposal, just upgraded to ROKR Ultimate and yesterday I fuse with Katze2 now 3beta, Wah its excellent Speaker louder in earphone and xternal speaker, Menu are fast it does not lag, using with a 4GB SD card is a dream come true... Yes the external speaker is much louder than Mr.N-Ser73! Listening to Mozart & Boney M using with my excellent Razer earphone has never been better, thus such chemistry is like in the Roxy theater.

  • yes the ap flex version becomes ultimate while ap s/w version becomes katz3..very nice.!! with the ability to install programs like (ampd 64) which increases frequency of the fone till 640 mhz or (volume modder) one which controls the volume of the fone..etc (quest) doesent seem to me as an Islamic name..!!any way even u r from planet mars u are welcomed...we are just talking about a mobile not a civilizations conflict!! ha ha bye

  • Now I read your last opinion and I saw that you have actually flashed the phone :). However I see you have used it with the Ultimate firmware (Nice knowing that it works). Will the flashing with cg43 delete the files that I have in the phone?

  • Thnks for finding that out Ahmed. If you flash it can you post your opinion about the results please. BTW I wont be angry for correcting me since we belong to the same religion :PPPPPP

  • ha ha correction again!! it is CG43 test file.. not 34 one..any way i downloaded it and i found it is sbf file..i tried it with ultimate one the firmware becomes somewhat faster and the sound louder than the original state..besides with ultimate one can use the fone software programs available in e2 modder..i think in katz one the sound is loudest but on the expense of other things..like sound quality especially through the outer speaker..

  • I dont think the cg43 is a sbf file. It is a file to do a reflash which will update your phone. How this is done I dont know but you can visit www.modmymoto.com and see because recently I saw the person that did Katze2 firmware (Adrian Gatillo) released an update (cg43) for this firmware. You can download the file and see. Sry i cant help man

  • @quest.. correction.. the cg34 is sbf file..

  • Has a lot of features. Slot SD an headphone bluetooth stereo S9. But the speed of software is slow. You click and wait. Is a great phone.

  • Ahahahahahaha Mr.Quest :P. For 4GB cards I would recommend to visit I haven't used 4 GB cards so I can not help you. Sorry. Happy time, Chenkui

  • Thank u for the reply Mr. Quest. Please answer to my long term and final question about rokrE2. Can we have 4GB cards in this phone? Is there any problem in formatting that? PLEASE REPLY Mr. QUEST......

  • Yes you can assign audio with your choice to the SMS. The formats can be: MP3/AAC/AAC+/WMA/AMR/MIDI...

  • Hi. Can we set ringtones to SMS in this phone. If yes what r all the formats we can set?

  • Well Ahmed the volume table can be edited and you can increase the volume of the headset and the handset, yourself. I use the ultimate firmware and it is very reliable. Also there is a software to increase the volume. The URL is in my previous post. But you can try both of them and figure it out yourself, cause as I see you are not newbie in modding. Happy Time :)

  • thanks quest..the problem may be in me..!! i prefer katz1 firmware it is the fastest firmware & the loudest one(louder than nokia n73) but i also need modern ones like katz2 or kayz3 but they have lower volume as i mentioned before..i used the volume table(available in e2 modder) the ear piece sound increased but the outer one no changes..i tried ultimate one slower but has many GUI..what do prefer?

  • If you can use Samba in your phone go to \\192.168.16.2\system and press F3 and search *.cfg files. This will find the location of the volume table of your firmware and then you can edit it with notepad to increase the volume. It works. I have tested it only in the Ultimate

  • If u want to increase the volume of the ROKR and u are using the ultimate firmware I would recommend this software: It works perfectly

  • @quest thank u quest i follow the url u given bellow and i downloaded rsd lite (3.7)..i was using 3.2 the newer one is much better..i have question.. katz3 have been just launched..adriangatillo(the firmware modder) said that to increase volume..one have to flash with cg34 test file though this file not sbf or shx type..how? thanks

  • No. It has only 900, 1800, 1900.

  • this phone have band 850 ?

  • Hi. anybody here using 4GB SD card in rokr e2? Is there any problem in formatting it?

  • If the file is corrupted see this link You can find RSD Lite here

  • I've been using the phone 2 months ago and I've only one comment - battery drained off easily especially when using MP3. I've already consulted it and once changed by the dealer but still the problem exists. I am now charging the unit everyday.

  • Use winRAR to extract .rar files. Inside its the setup.

  • i hav downloaded rsd lite but the problem is that after unzipping, it's RAR File and my pc or my phone cant open it..

  • Hi anybody currently using 4GB card in e2? Is there any probs with it?

  • Jack Flashing the phone will delete every file you have in the phone. It is recommended to put the files (pictures, music etc) in the memory card. The memory card will not be affected. The messages and contacts will also be deleted so it is recommended to put them in SIM card or backup them in the PC. The SIM will not be affected as well. If you need instructions to flash to a newer firmware email me in [email protected] and I will send you tutorial.doc, with explanation and screenshots

  • This is for Jack Flashing the phone will delete every file you have in the phone. It is recommended to put the files (pictures, music etc) in the memory card. The memory card will not be affected. The messages and contacts will also be deleted so it is recommended to put them in SIM card or backup them in the PC. The SIM will not be affected as well. For a tutorial how to flash your phone I wrote a .doc file. GSMARENA hasn't got the option to upload files here so everyone interested just send your emails at [email protected] and I will send the file. Its with screen shots :)

  • To record conversations while you talk pres the voice key in the side. Its easy :). The file will be saved as .amr. BTW you can apply amr as ringtones. In fact you can use every audio file that E2 supports as ringtone.

  • Can we record phone conversations in this phone?

  • Thank u for the reply for my previous question. Can we record calls in this phone? Which formats can be set as ringtones other than mp3?

  • For those wanting to add skins/themes, mod their phone go to www.freemod.net the first US based E2 forum.

  • ya quest katz is better&faster than ultimate but katz1 has the loudest sound i ever tried with e2,i tried katz2 the same as katz1 but has lower sound even when using the volume table file coming with the firmware..about jack it is a long story to tell how to install firmware!! i have mentioned it before in this preview..ok again..u have to get rsd lite progaram3.0 program,download it(dont tell me where&how) i really forget the site! install it into ur pc>unzip the katz file(firmware file 4 example)2 any place in ur pc u will get sbf file> open rsd lite> close ur fone>press the side sound command bottom in the same time with power one>u will get red screen shows (usb flash mod)>connect ur fone to pc>rsdlite detects it>through rsd lite search bar browse ur pc to where u save the sbf file>press start.the program will install the file..it lasts 4 15 to 20 min do exactly what the program tell u..in such way u install new firmware..thanks

  • hey quest, how do i install these ultimate or katze firmwares?is it hard?what kind of connection setting do i need in my usb setting..and what are the drivers & softwares that are needed?and last thing, will all my messages, files be erased when i change my firmware?tnx

  • Also Katze has increased volume especially when using the headset

  • Katze2 has an advantage over Ultimate in the speed. It is overclocked and works faster however the Ultimate has a better GUI applications wich makes them easier to handle. The applications that Ultimate has are very handy.

  • ok ahmed..i dnt see any myskin folder in my file manager..maybe my firmware is not qualified..so how can i upgrade the firmware?they have this thing called ultimate & katze2..which one is better? and what are the things to do when upgrading?will it damage my phone? give me instructions to change my firware...thanks man

  • @jack u mean telenet ur fone to install themes ? no..there is easier way to install themes just what i said before.. again download the skin from(http://www.e2mod.com/)..unzip it..u have two files skin file and chm file..of course unzip them in the memory card..copy the chm> unrecognized files(in the file manger)> my skin>setuptheme>paste..copy skin>unrecognized files>my skin>skin>paste..but first of all u have to upgrade ur fone with a modern firmware (i recommend katz1 46p).. about rsd light program i have it version 3.2 i downloaded it free..http://www.modmymoto.com...http://motohell.com/ are good sites for e2..firmwares,skins programs 4 e2 are available in these sites..thanks

  • @ jorge modding means upgrading the firmware of your phone! :-)

  • yeah, u have to download RSD lite (from where), then u hav to establish a so-called telnet connection (how?is it free), then u hav to download a lot of softwares..not to mention u will hav to register first in their stupid websites to do those things.. I JUST WANT A THEME?Why do i have to go through all these? I didnt experience this on my symbian phones..

  • e-mod guys...how do u do all those stuff?how can we flash the phone?how can we change the firmware?the instructions are all complicated..now they have this RSD Lite?where on earth can i download it to upgrade my firmware? this is a cool phone..but im losing my coolness just to download a theme.. AND WHAT DO U MEAN BY MOD?is this site supported by motorola?what the hell is modding...

  • hey ahmed, where can i find the unknown-my skin & the chm file?when i download theme, it's a rar file..i'm using the mass storage option on my usb setting...

  • 4 GB cards can be used too lesser voltage cards (not strong kingston cards)

  • Just so you know there are some 4gb SD cards that work. The transcend 150x card works. There are easier resources for the E2, E6, Z6 phones. Go to www.freemod.net plenty of skins/themes with easy instructions. e2mod's instructions makes it a big risk at bricking the phone. The simple way is available at freemod forum.

  • Sorry man its up to 2GB SD cards =(.

  • i am planning to buy e2 now. Can I have 4GB sd card in that. Please reply...

  • hey gays@ UD$A same pc URL has two owners..!! reply to each other through the same URL..no problem..!!but stop attack rokr e2..!!what is the difficult of installing themes in e2?is coping the skin file to unknown>my skin>skin..&its chm file to unknown>my skin>skin setup..is that hard to do?! i do not know what to say about the video quality but every body watched my rokr e2 told me it looks like a tv screen..choose a good 3gp convertor and let us see..

  • yeah, e2mod.com is weird.when i download rar file rr mpkg file, my rokr cant open it.

  • yeah, the e2mod.com is very complicated..the instruction to download theme is very difficult..u will need some connection or something..it's not like zedge.net or mobile9.com where u can just save the theme to your phone... any other sites to download themes?

  • good phone..bu it cant play high quality videos (rizr k1 can play them).. and it's very hard to install themes..u hav to do a lot of things just to get one (those websites that they give here)..what particular does this the these require?

  • The greatest phone ever done.

  • Sensational mobile phone!!! I possess a, with the phone bluetooth stereo and I am totally satisfied. He allows a varied range of options of new monster packs. www.e2mod.com. It was worth! Abs from Brazil!!!!!!

  • MUCH louder than those SE i think only n91 and w950 are better than this fone at music

  • hello..ROKR E2's louder than w810/w610 or not?? im not motorola or se fans even nokia..hehehe..

  • Very cool phone. best QVGA screen, sound, 3,5mm, spatial audio, linux OS. MOTOROLA IS THE BEST If you want themes, skin, firmware, linux program, tutorial, overcloack you can go to www.e2mod.com & www.modmymoto.com F/w 33P, 35P, 36P is very bad. I recommend you to upgrade to 48P. hehe....

  • yes iqbal..i think the property of modding rokr e2 is one of the best things it has..besides other great features..and availability of sites which contains firmwares,themes and skins for e2 like(http://www.e2mod.com/)an excellent site about the person who complained the ear piece of e2 i think it returns to something wrong in your ears..!!

  • YEAAAH this phone rocksss.... at the 1st time i buy this phone i feel like i'm buying the wrong one. BUT HEY after i saw the E2 MODDING SITE's then i try step by step about this phone i found out that this phone is AWESOME N FUN to use, espescially the one who liked if his phone different than others. this because the E2 can be MOD to whatever we like HELL YEAHH...

  • It�s a decent phone. The design is not so good, but the performance is awesome. I had SE K750i and after that I got this E2. But the problem is SE shipped with a very good headset that is HPM-70. SE headset�s bass system is very cool. I am now using Sony headset with my ROKR E2 but the performance is not as good as Sony Ericsson headset. The ROKR E2 having some major difficulties. Even though its MP3 sound quality is best in Market, way better then Sony Ericsson walkman series. Its spatial audio is awesome. But Motorola need to shipped this is kind of model with a better headset.

  • yes talha i agree rokr e2 is good but its camera is horrible,motorola should think on it

  • y rokr e2 has such a worst camera y

  • This phone has the best menu I've ever seen. Other models of Motorola doesn't have such nice interface. The camera is quite good too, though it's only 1.3MP. The speaker is horrible, because my old phone was E398, so you should know the large difference. The screen is large enough, but surprisingly, the fonts appear to be so small. Overall, this phone is a great deal. Just look at the specifications, getting one w/ 1GB memory at RM600 isn't expensive (I bought it at promotion period, so I bet it should be around RM750 with 2GB memory). This is a good phone.

  • NO ali its not available in pk well i saw this fone at Advancetelecom franchise (packed ready for sale)

  • save moto e2 rokr from getting down in top rated fones list rate it 10/10

  • in first using of this phone so exciting bit this phone is not txt friendly slow response....but the cam and video great resolution...................

  • That's right .. i also bought it and will arrive soon ... awesome phone also ... love to mod it ....

  • hi to every body..i recently have upgraded my E2 to 46p katz firmware..it is very fast one..no hang up or delay..the sound became louder than ever especially in the ear piece..the fone was (over clocked)...increasing its internal frequency..another thing..i do not know why motorola do not supply its modern fones with fm radio?! many friends of mine complained of that ..only cheap fones have fm radio while krazr and razr ones have no fm radio!! rokr e2 has fm radio for our good luck!! ...look to nokia all or most of its modern fones have fm radio which attract many peoples..i think motorola fones have a very good performance as i tried in V2288,T191 and finally E2 but it have to know what people need and what attract them..

  • A very fast phone.. nice for gaming forget about the design it really sucks but the features and the things you can do to this fone it's awesome! Flashing this fone is very easy you only need the software for it and a mini USB included in the package.. its very far from Nokia and SE if you got Whitescreen in this two you will need cash for fixing it! while in moto its free!! and it never dies!!

  • sorry...n also..wat is spatial audio inside d setup of d media list?hw to mopped d phone?i really get bored wt the theme tat i using nw..pls...someone pls help me...

  • wat i wanna ask is...hw to install d skin into my motorola rokr e2??n also can i upgrate my sound?b'coz sometimes i really cant listen when people call me...anyone can help me??

  • The phone has a hotswap so the memory card can be inserted without the need to remove the battery or to power it off. It is inserted from the outside.

  • this is a very decent phone. very nice indeed with a superb music player and screen also customization ability is really nice. the music buttons and easy to use unlike some motos.superb. i wonder why moto didn't give this leg up in advertising since this could have put up a nice competition with SE walkman ones. also why doesn't gsm arena has a review on this? iw ould love top read it.if u guys do please tell how to see it.

  • how do u put on the memory cards

  • @low volume try to mod your E2, it will be faster in texting browsing and everything else ^_^ everything in E2 can be modded.

  • hey i juz gt my e2...the phone is great...but y is da volume so f***ing soft? reli cant listen if outside...even my 6680 is louder..how to fix it?

  • to Confused. All 3 phones that you have picked do not have stereo speakers. They only have 1 speaker. They are all not very loud. If you like misuc, E2 is the best choice. The best thing about this phone is that E2 has a 3.5mm headphone jack. You can use your normal favour headset to your phone. You do not need to have any convertor. Other phones in the market do not have this 3.5 mm jack. You can check around. Other brand may have 2.5mm mini jack but it does not fit your normal headset.

  • hey just wanna recomfirm that e2 is louder than nokia n-series and walkmanphones? im planning to buy 5300,k550 and e2...help me 2 decide which is better..

  • Comparing sound from speaker E2 wins the crystal clear and N73 wins the loudness.I don't like N73 loudness sound.so cracky and the vocal sound unclear.Sound from headset E2 is invincible.No phone could beat it even Walkman series.

  • hey juz wanna noe whether dis pone is louder than N73/N80?

  • does this phone hav a frames after taking a picture?

  • pc cuit motorola rokr e2

  • @ Arcz I can?! but momo king said I can't! hmmm :-/

  • Sophisticated! Satisfied my expectations, though sometimes it hangs, overall performance is exceptionally one of the best. Affordable price as compared to other with the same specifications. I exceptionally recommend this to others.

  • @Demirell you can make you mp3 a ringing tone directly from memory card

  • to the unknown person at Gtxm..!! i am also having this fone since 28/12/2006.. it never freezed or hanged up with me.. frankly..if it becomes freeze as you mentioned..at once change the firmware with newer one..the defect is most probably in the old firmware installed in yours..all what you exposed i never met during the last 6 months..just visit and try new firmwares and lets see..

  • Having owned this phone for about 6 months now, I can say that it is exactly what I expect from Motorola: A semi working MP3 player and camera with limited phone abilities. My meaning is that while texting, music, video, and sound are spectacular, the microphone to actually carry out a conversation is off and on, and the phone consistently freezes up and must have its battery removed to turn off. This is the 2nd motorola phone I've had, and it will certainly be the last.

  • www.modmymoto.com and in spanish www.modmymoto.com/espanol the biggest forum for modding e2, and the best one on it�s spanish area

  • For the person who asked about the E2 vs the Z3. Having owned both belief me the Z3 is not even in the same league as the E2. For all that are trying to compare the speaker sound to E398/E2 don't even try mono vs stereo, there is no comparison. As for everything else E398/E1 can't touch the E2. Easier to mod, most of it is drag n drop files. You can edit most files on the spot. If u wanted to you could even make a 3x20 menu. Want to learn more head over to freemod.net forums.

  • @shane i think your pertaining to the speaker sound.. for me i love the sound from it (earphones) then buy the stereo blutooth of motorola and you will ROKRing you way..

  • For all of you who want motorola to have better camera phones, read this: it is about the 10 year partnership between Motorola and Kodak. So i guess, Motorola's camera phones will be the best!!!!

  • wat i think is the sound not really clear..n also not really good..(music phone...)the motorola e398 is more better than this..(at least got 3d sound..)

  • im so happy coz i avail this phone and it fits in my lifestyle.....ilove the mp3 and the video...at first i encounter difficulty in navigating this phone...

  • The ROCKR E2 DOES READ 4GB it needs to have a special firmware however if you know spanish enter: www.laneros.com and search for the ROCKR E2 forum for help on it :) or simply search on:

  • hi every body... i am using now 45 beta2 version..i think it is one of the best firmwares i used till now..fast and very light the device never hang up before..but just one problem i face..i can not install skins..! i did my best to do that but no way...only standard skins..i tried telenet..copying the theme to unknown files.. copying the theme to system>ezxlocal>download>appwrite>skin..and its chm file to ezx user..but no way..i talk in details to tell you what i did..it was very easy in previous firmware which were slow and heavy...can any body of our motorola volunteers find out any way to install themes on 45 beta2? thanks

  • this phone rocksss!!! I do like it.U'll find a lot of useful stuff in this phone especially ex-E398 users like ringtones from mmc,equalizer setting,faster perfomance,awesome screen,better camera,fulscreen video playback,etc.U also can mod this phone like E398 although sound from speaker not so loud compared with E398.anyway,I recommend u buying this phone. U gotta love it.

  • The phone do able to use mp3 on memory card as ringtones!!

  • to wacko, I bought my E2 in HK. The package px included a big Motorola blue tooth headset. It is wireless. It can control many functions. The headset have buttons to contorl the volumn, track control, back and forward. The headset can even answer the phone!!! The headset is not heavy and 1 full charge can use up to 13 to 15 hours. The sound quality is very good. I did not use my headset all the time. If you or anyone want my headset, please offer me a px. Please go to the link to learn more about the headset.

  • i want to know about it's headset? is the phone compatible with the bluetooth headset? does it mean that the mp3s that i play in the rockr e2 will be heard in the bluetooth headset? i would to ask for some feedbacks with the bluetooth headset of motorola? how does the bluetooth headset function? does it serves as a wireless headset?

  • I don't think E2 can use 4G card. I am currently using 1G card. I have tried to use 2G card but not very stable. The phone sometimes hang.

  • Can we use 4GB cards for rokr e2 now. In some blogs it was written like that. Can any one answer for this??????

  • Thanks for replying momo king..what a pity! I've got about 200 ringtones that I love to put on any phone I use..this way I'll only be able to use very few of them :( [only 10 MB internal memory] Anyway, did u guys see this test? It's a comparison between ROKR E2, nokia 3250 and several walkman models to see which of them has the best music performance...I'm sure all E2 owners will be delighted! :)

  • to ^0^, The battery of this phone cannot last for long if you listen to MP3 song quite often. If you listen to MP3 around 2 hours and talk on the phone for 2 hours per day, then for sure you need to charge the battery everyday or need a spare battery.

  • to Demirell, you need to move the mp3 file to your phone memory in order to use the file as ringtone. You can use the software that come with the phone to modify the length of the file so that it will not take up a lot of space in your phone memory. The software is quite easy to use. Just try is and you will know how to operate.

  • got this thru lucky draw... not much interestin xcept it is linux-based.. so, can easily be modded... dats all, n feel great to own dis phone

  • Does anyone know if we could use an mp3 file saved on the memory card as a ringtone? or do we have to move it to the phone's built-in memory first?

  • to Lizzie_HN If I were u, I would wait for the z6 instead, it is basically the e2 and z3 combined, only faster.

  • to Lizzie_HN about me i did not try your Z3 and i think that i wont...just choose compare in the left side of this page and try rokr e2 vs z3 and see features performance and most important thing is users opinions..thanks

  • im considering to buy this phone, i have a RIZR Z3 at the moment, is it better/same/worst than the Z3? is it worth the money?

  • heyy...im soooo interested with this phone!i need to know is the battery good enough???is it worthy to buy??thx 4 d answers!

  • to Martin, while you are in camera mode, go to "options", then "flash, then you can choose from 1) auot flash, 2) always on and 3) always off.

  • i have a problem with the camara flash, it dosn't turn off, someone know how to fixed?

  • I bought this phone on Aug, 2006 to replace my E1. I like this phone very much. It has all the function that a phone need to have. The manual is simple and easy to follow. The music buttons is easy to access. The sound quality is excellent. The best thing about phone is that I can use any 3.5mm headphone with this phone. No need to use any convertor. Other brands are still using non-standard headphone jet. Mr. SE and Mr. N are now trying to follow Motorola. If you are music lovers, it it wise to follow the pioneer but not the followers.

  • K, thanks for your advice, it was REALLY helpful! I actually contacted a Univeristy of China grad - PhD in Telecommunications, but works at Gateway Tim Horton's - and she told me that I need to install a "Bo Ka Cheeee" in order to allow the 4Gb card to be read! Since then it's all "Hi-5's" and the phone is working sooo cute!

  • this phone is great, good mp4 (hehe some entertainment between and in university xD) and excellent mp3, playlist are goods and the good is the jak 3.5mm (u dont need special headset or that kind of stuff), also the key block stick is very confortable. lol for comercialize if its like u say i dunno how i can get mine here xD (im in argentina, in the left part of the world ass >.

  • Koz, no u cannot expand it to 4 gb but there is a way...there is an adapter called "Le Ha Ma" that u can order from China (that is the only place I saw it so far) and with that, u can use up to 4 gb...hope it helps...cheers

  • This is a great phone, I'm so sad that Motorola didn't introduce this phone everywhere, 'cause this phone rocks, a great display better than Samsumg the linux based OS is great, and the music, what I can say wonderful, this phone is a revolution for Motorola, but they didn't comercialize it as they should do-

  • hey guys, I've not yet got my E2 but will get it b4 june end as my cousin is comin down from the US in june.

  • if you like musicccc very much, take e2 if you like photo-taking and listening to music(BUT not the same quality) take z3 After many decisions, I have decided to take z3

  • I've just purchased and E2 ROKR and want to maximize the SD Memory card to a 4Gb, however, I don't know if the phone will recognize it! Does anyone know anything about this?

  • Your welcome ahmed. Keep being faithful to motorola. ;)

  • phillip...the url is soft4gsm.com amanda..what do u mean of the only problem? kay..thanks a lot u encouraged me so far!!

  • as a music phone,i think this one has to have a long-lasting battery...i think its just d only problem of this phone...

  • Plz can someone give me tha link 2 download rsd lite or w/e it's called plz i need 2 install tha new firmware

  • Ahmed, currently there isn't a program created by any one so far that record from the fm radio function on the phone.

  • Correction mohammed, it's not themes that is applied, it's called skins, and also it can be gotten the site u provided and also on www.modmymoto.com. U would need skiman( Skins Manager to apply them, i would advise u to use at 4 skins of your phone, it can be removed and added at any time u choose, because it removes some of the internal memory the phone comes with.

  • can any body of motorola volunteers find out any program that can directly record from fm radio?

  • how long lasts the battery>

  • for Sebastian Cervantes : yes themes can be changed and there are lots of themes on e2mod.com for dario : rokr e2 can hold 2 GB SD memory cards and when firmware is upgraded it can hold FOUR GB cards for more info about this phone and goods for it visit

  • I have a e2 and it's great but i need to know how can put new themes in my phone???

  • Does the phone's sound quality is better compared to the K750 if I use the loudspeakers?

  • I Can't believe me , I'm In dream or in fact ,This mobile is very good ,every thing you can Imagine it you'll find it in Roker E2 , I had E2 I do not think buy it

  • approximate 145 euros, with 512 sd cards, sounds reasonable?

  • ok, so if i put in the E2 a 4gb card, there will be no problem? ia that correct? i hope you can help me. thanks

  • currently the e2 wen modded supports up to 4gbs sd cards but a special brand transcend x150 i think,u can check out the info on freemod.net

  • It can take any size SD card, the controllers are located on the SD card not the phone. Hence any phone can use any size SD card, they just list whats avaliable at the time of the phones release.

  • hi, i saw in the motorola site that the memory limit is 1gb and up here is says "2gb".... wich is correct?? in my opinion i believe in the official web site

  • hi, i saw in the motorola site that the memory limit is 1gb and up here is says "2gb".... wich is correct?? in my opinion i believe in the official web site

  • Killimore, Have you got Motorola ROKR E2? Ahmed, Good comparison with SE K750!! Functionalitywise this phone is better than SE K750. Pricewise, it is very less expensive compared to SE K550. SE stopped K750. Now they are promoting K550 with same functionality.

  • ugly betty phone

  • Hey P$tF (or whatever ur name iz) The only thing cheap here is you.The ROKR E2 is a one-of-a-kind music phone that beats the living daylights oUt of all other music phones-se walKman series included.Did u say camera??Go take a hike and buy an SE camera phone.Who even needs a camera when the E2 has features that even d obnoxious N-Series don't have.1.3 mpx wid flash iz cool!

  • Too cheap

  • ahmed is right!!! this phone is great, but i think I am going to buy z6. z6= z3 plus e2

  • i agree with Ahmed ..e2 is the best music phone ever ..it has the BEST output in headphones with 3.5mm jack u can plug any of ur favorite headphones or even a whole sound system and u gonna get awesome sound quality ... and also its moddable firmware is totally great ... this phone is immortal ...

  • Uber cool phone!! Just shame their not availible in the U.K =(

  • @mind my english(i dont know why people dont write their real names)?!! any way...if u compare bet e2&k750..e2 wins.. 1- the resolution of e2 is 240*320 while of k750 is 176*220 2-there is no edge in k750 3-e2 based on linux operating system which is wonderful one (i use it on my pc...ebunto version) 4-the slow performance returns to old firmware...download new one& you will see the difference..i suggest 45 beta 2 excellent one 5-fm radio can store up to 45 station.. 6-e2 has 1.3 m camera while k750 has 2 m one what do u expect?! 7- with 45 beta 2 e2 can use memory card up to 4gb 8-u can adjust ur device to send sms to 5 people u informed it before this sms includes the strang sim number in ur device(in case of losing or stooling ur mobile) 9-if u follow e2 modder site u will know how good is e2...

  • This phone is inferior than Sony K750: - heavier than Sony - slow performance, slow downloading - camera is not even close to Sony - speaker is about the same as Sony but not as good as E398 - video recording is the worst ever However, this one of the best music/mp3 player: - when using earphone, it is much better than Sony, about 5-10% better music sound & performance - it got around 3-4 hours music playback more than Sony - can store more radio stations than Sony So if both models have the same price, get Sony K750i, but if u can get E2 for $150 or lower than Sony, go get the E2

  • this it is a great telephone multimedia and I believe that I made a very good investment, only that it possessed a sony s700i before this telephone and without a doubt the resolution of the camera is inferior to that of my previous telephone, that serious the only thing that didn't convince me so much of this telephone but envelope the mp3 and multimedia has very good characteristic.

  • Hey Basu and Ahmed, y'all might have read the 4-part review on mobile-review.com.The reviewer then said that there were many features on the test set that might not b available on the production fones.Is this true?Do ur fones have all of those amazin features that were mentioned?

For all this i had given just 7k rupeese. in Nokia or SE for this much functionality they will charge around 12k.

  • Ahmed, Yeah this phone is very good.All my Friends wants to buy this one but it is not yet released in India.You can buy C168 but i think carrying two phone is a problem. I think in most cases, this phone is better than Sony Erricsson K750.

  • Hi, People! I bought E1 last week and It's so wonderfull phone that I ever had coz all people at my home and my office love my E1 and they want to change their phones with E1 coz of the best sound and the camera. But, onething that I dont like is the color. I cant find the black one coz in Medan, no black ones anymore so I must get the white one but it's OK coz I have already in love with E1. Can somebody help me to set the iTunes manually? coz I dont have time to go to Motorola Service Center. Most of all, Motorola E1 is the best phone of all in VGA series.

  • Thanks Ahmed. I have changed default location for storing data from phone to memory.Is it possible to transfer playlist from computer to phone?

  • 1. There is only one speaker. 2. Both are the same. 3. Performance is good and you can play multitask.

  • recently i use w850, and im totally dissapointed with its performance. im planning to change my phone with this phone. but before that i want to ask some questions. 1. does the speaker 3d surround like rokr e1? 2. how bout the video quality? i used rokr e1 before, and the quality of the video is very poor..hows the video quality, at least compare with rokr e1.. 3.hoiw bout the software? does it respons very fast? my w850 is very slow, especially when writing message. hate it. rokr e1 is better i think than w850.. how bout rokr e2? thanks for any replies, waiting soon...

  • ya i see basu...u have to change the location of storage of ur applications(saving fotos,installing programs,blue tooth transferring..etc)from the fone memory to sd one..its default setting is to the fone...

  • Ahmed, My observation is that. My phone memory was more than 70% full.I tried to run Media finder that gaves error message that dont have sufficeint space to run this application. So i have moved lot of files from phone memory to memory card(1GB SD).Now my phone memory is just 6% full:-). Now it is quite fast.I am able to run media finder. I dont think, i have to reflash my phone with any software.I am getting whatever i was expecting.I dont have much knowledge on reflashing mechanism:-).let me know how to find phone software(firmware)version. E2 is far better than E1 in every case.Comparing E2 with E1 is not justifieable.

  • i was thinkin of gettin this hot fone, but i just wanted to kno what makes it better then the E1?

  • no basu,the defect may be in the software, i almost tried all e2 softwares, i am using now 46p2..stable&fast...media refreshing never start if u make system link (on).. computer never feel ur device if u make ur swap file(on) it just a little experience i learned from modder site ....

  • Thanx Ahmed,I am intersted in reflashing my mobile with latest software.But only problem,i will see is warranty will be lost. One thing i have observed is that if phone memory is more than 70% full then device became slow even we cant run media finder also. Now i have reduced to less 10%.Now it is quite fast.

  • Thx guys for replying! E2 can use SD up to 2GB only? Because SE says W810 can use MSPD up to 2GB only but aloooot of people uses a MSPD of 4GB with no problems and in the announcement of MSPD of 8GB W810 was standing righ next to it... Anyone tried to use a SD card bigger than 2GB on E2? If it exists...=/

  • i agree with u basu...but to make ur device faster visit motorola rokr e2 modders site and choose phone software then choose swap file mpkg..this program will make 12 mb in ur memory card as ram or virtual memory try it..

  • Excellent Phone!!!!!!!! +ve ponits: *Great User interface.Better and different that all other motorola phones. *Good Resolution display *Music is excellent.Better than W800. *Battery is OK. *Compact and Handy( Perfectly fits in shirt pocket) * It support 2GB SD memory card(Very chief memory card). *phone book is more user friendly. -ve Points: Camera is average. Not so fast GUI. Overall the Great phone from Motorola.........

  • Here in GSMArena says that the memory of this phone can expanded up to 2GB, but in the service provider that i work here in Brazil says that its up to 4GB, in Moto site doesnt say anything clearly...anyone knows its max?

  • Hi everybody ! I bought this phone this week and i think it is absolutely marvelous. Greatest phone that i ever owned. I have however a little problem, and maybe someone here on the forum can help me ? The bass boost does not function, you can try to put it on, but to no avail. Also there are a very limited number of equalizer presets. Did anybody have the same problem maybe, and did you find a solution ? Would flashing help ? Please drop me a line somebody cause i desparately want my rokr fully functional... Thanks to all'ya and MOTO ROCKS !

  • >>lights? u mean flash dude?? yea. it is equipped with flash light!!

  • @Pend just write motorola rokr e2 in ur search bar....i like mobile preview.com&of course this site...they helped me so much to decide what to buy...i like this brand much i used before v2288 and t191 and lately rokr e2 all of them never disappointed me..the device is excellent but it needs someone knows well how to install programs&firmwares and use them ...motorola rokr e2 modders.com that is a real great site for every thing about e2 try it..

  • in how many colours this fone is available.and from which websites i can see its utilities.i could understand the website which is rokre2modders,i cant open this website,can any 1 tell me the correct website

  • @leo what do you mean of lights?

  • Does ROKR E2 also have lights in it like the before models like ROKR E1,E398,V80 and Nokia 3220?

  • Greatest phone i've ever used!

  • i juz bought this phone.... its a most intresting phone that i had... nothing 2 give a negative comment... its all the positive one... try it n u will love it...

  • the moto e2 is the bomb, this phone rocks. i tried to phone out for a while and fell in lonve with it. I just had to get one for myself. the radio provides great entertainmet and when you no longer want to listen to the radio you swich to mp3's and listen to your own selection of music. the sound quality is crystal clear and the ability to have your text messages read out to you is really neat.the battery life is pretty good. i listened for a couple of hours and the battery metter had not moved. this phone is a good buy.

  • well, there are a lot of people here complaining about this phone because they like those SE and samsung craps. first, update your soft and other things for the phone and then talk...

  • i feel sorry about persons who complain of e2..just take ur time(two days are not enough) to judge a device...any device..if it lags or has low sounds ok try another firmware(43,45,46)ones i tried them... stable 45p3 matches me...i mentioned before that to change ur firmware, u have to get RSD LITE program..&visit rokre2 modders.com,u will find how far rokr e2 can be customized..if a problem appears..ok..change ur firmware..that is all

  • for all the people bashin this fone get ur facts str8- for starters this fone is louder dan alot of fones out dere- it depends on ur firmware i got mine with 45p and its really quite loud mine doesnt lag firmware is stable unlike symbian os- can create folders ur own menus and many more multitakin is a breeze.the reason y alot of people r complainin that this fone is low is becuz they need updated firmware 28-43 is garbage bugs galore and few improvements 45p and 46 p is like a whole diff fone

  • i suppose i should be agree with u 2....cox i buy e2 1 week ago..the speaker is really not loud..then the phone always lag..wat tis phone worth is its screen 240x320..

  • storm..i totally agree with u..i am also a moto supporters..but tis phone really make my crazy..even my old nokia 6230i ringtone is louder..when i compare my e2 with my friend's w810i,i completely lose...only my screen is larger..T_T feel like to cry..but i will always be moto supporters..T_T

  • tis phone is really bad....i buy it 2 days ago..the speaker is not loud compare to nokia 5300 and any se W series phone!!(although i am a moto supporters)i feel so regret to buy tis phone...and the phone always laggggggggg!i feel very uncomfortable everytime i use this phone

  • @vinod just type (rokr e2 manuals) in ur search bar using google as ur search engine.. the third site in the first page of search results will be what u want but the file in PDF format so u have to get acrobat reader program

  • hi, i hv purchased teh mobile in china, as i am not able to read the catalogue. if some body has the English catelogue. pls send me to this mail ID [email protected] thanks,

  • for every 1,i nearly tried all rokr e2 firmwares&i can say that the most stable and comfortable one to me is 45p v3...i like it so much...secendry 4 gsm arena the covers of rokr e2 can not be changed.

  • I love this phone. It is a very very good phone and I am disappointed that Motorola have brought out the E6 without a keypad. Not everyone likes touchscreens ! The E2 is a wonderful phone and it is very well made.I love mine so much I am buying a spare as back up .

  • just wondering though why GSMArena did not post any review w/ this cool phone.. they keep on posting review mostly from Nokia & SE... tsk! tsk!.. too bad, maybe they don't announced the cool features of this phone... & i guess it would definitely bet those phones of this range (w/c GSMArena keep on posting!!!...)

  • wonderful mobile,with excellent features,i bought it month ago&upgraded it to 46p2 firmware,to every one who needs to know the real features of rokr e2 just go to rokr e2 modders&u will see how much u can custom ur e2...firmwares,programs,skins,utilities, lang packs every thing...any way thanks alot 4 motorola.. i was waiting for a long time to this fantastic device

  • @keto dude if u use rokr e1 or e2 im sure that u will fall in love with them

  • lousy phone

  • yes best mp4 video can be run on the fone in IPOD resolution they r far better compared to NOKIA

  • Does this phone play 320x240 videos (mp4)? Has anyone tried this?

  • anybody wanting arabic language in their ROKR e2, you can proceed to ... good site for modding your e2. just download it from thier site. good luck!

  • 3GSM february in Barcelona. THe mysterious SCPL platform 3G phones and i think a UIQ symbian phone will be announced(secret source) with 2mpx and wifi, codename Espoo. But i have not seen pics yet. Espoo is the city where Nokia's HQ is.

  • thanks god...after i had finished the below messege, i tried again in e2 mod i found the pack i need created just today... thanks alot for e2mod it helped me so much to make my rokr e2 up to dat

  • e2mod is great site for rokr e2 but when i changed my firmware to 45p i lost arabic lang pack in my rokr,the site offers 4 lang packs, arabic not included in..i can not deal with files or songs or names or sms written in arabic, the arabic lang code is 0012 and 0034 but i did not find in rokr e2 ware (564)....please can any body tell me how to get arabic lang suitable for rokr e2 soft ware thanks...

  • for all e2 ROKR fans this site u gonna find all u need .. firmwares, programs , themes even ring tones and u'll fine guides for all actions u can make with phone

  • I'm so confused now.will somebody help me please?When using external speaker/headphone,is e2 better than walkman series like w810i or w900i?

  • special site for ROKR E2. themes, firmware and lots and lots

  • For the guys looking for firmware updates (which raise the speaker volume a lot btw), skins, themes, mods, and such for your ROKRs there are a couple of forums I use, they're motomodders.net and freemod.net. There's tons of info about the phone there, as well as t-mobile's mms and internet configs I think.

  • If you use comparable SE earphone on E2, its audio quality is far more superior than SE Walkman series hand phones. SE came with a better stock earphone than Sony

  • Believe me ! Phone is the best, you will love it. Even the camera, which has no so good comments gave me name as a professional photographer. Camera at bright light is so good. Mostly all mobile cameras will not be so good in dark. So i need not worry abt that. To be frank, ringtone volume is less i accept, but even so good nokia ringtone will also not heard out in traffic sometime. I had missed calls with that too. So Rokr's ringtone less volume can be adjusted with vibration when you are out. At home or office it will be more than enough. Regarding the player volume, when you enable spatial audio and treble booster, i bet its equal to w700i. I checked on my own with my friends. File manager is ultimate which you love to use. Then what else ? Screen resolution is the best. Its 200 % worthy of the money what you give. I will assure that. Any other doubts post it. I love my ROKR E2. Its my dream phone for long period. Now that has become true, I own it.

  • can any one plaese tell me if the sound of the ringtones is clear like the v3 or not.

  • hey guys ..I'm about to buy this phone but on your pages i found the malysian friend down this page saying a problem about the speaker or the sound just now i'd like ur advise..is it true so i may change my mind or is it personal for his unit..plz b kind 2 me.& answer me fast

  • just been wondering why here in our place W810 price drop down.. but i guest maybe it's due to this great ROKR E2 phone.. i guess this is the player phone (on it's range) on the market today!.. btw, i almost forgot.. a phone that is moddable would definitely the best phone since it's ur choice!!!!..

  • wonderful fone with amazing headphones....but please can any body tell me where to find updates&themes for rokr e2?...i like it so much....i do not know what the difference between smart&youth phone...smart refers to what?

  • Crap!!!!!!!!Moto has launched the so-so K1 and Z3 here in India.Seems like they have forgotten that they have a Walkman clobbering ROKR E2 in their lineup.Pleeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaassssssse, for Chris' sake, wake up Motorola!!!!!!!!

  • Well,I'm buying a E2 rite now and their shipping it rite now.Whoever that said to help him or her to set the internet,you can't.That is because that this is not a 3G phone like N70.And anyway,who will want to use the internet on the phone because you have to pay extra in your phone bill.You could just use the computer internet.I had an N70 and my bill was high.So I never had done it again!

  • The speaker dun have the quality like E398's surround sound But still acceptable. If use the headsets to play the music, the sound quality is great.

  • can anyone help me setup my rokr e2 mms and internet i tried everything im using t-mobile[usa] you can email me @ [email protected] or post it on here thanks

  • what's wrong whit speakers? does it have stereo speakers?

  • Hi, I am from malaysia, just bought my E2, quite happy about it. Just one complain on its speaker, I missed E398's speaker. I would want know more about flashing the phone, is it safe and will it void the warranty of the phone?

  • where are the speakers on the pnone? E1 has one on the left side and one on the right side. any1 know something about that?

  • @ goodtimes UPDATE ur music library..

  • could any 1 tell me if there are any updaes 4 rokr e2?

  • Hye Guys...just bought this ROKR E2 today...its pretty inuative its a kick-a** phone in its class, cheaper than the W series and its a 'Talkin Phone'! After Playing around for today here is what I found out: Pros: 1) One of the Best Mp3 Phone in the Market, Equalizer with 12 presets, not a manual adjustable EQ.Sound is Excellent better than W series.(It beats 5300 easily) 2) File Manager is excellent, you be playing around with the setting all the time. 3) 2 inch Display, sharp and crisp you can even read text from afar.. 4) Bluetooth 2.0 AD2P funcinality...you can bond and hack with other phone and bond with printers such like the Samsung phone. 5) It has a Radio. 6) Sms typing pretty quick. 7) Interface is quick like vista aeroglass aka a translucence effect. CONS: 1) Speaker not loud,(One speaker only upper-right,and only you have a high quality MP3) is much differ to E 398 with sround sound. 2) Camera 1.3MP just average. 3) Not fo all users, who is familiar to symbian phone, JUIX (Java & Linux), but very stable. 4) Motorola could improve the icon though its pretty much the same as other motorola... That is all so far, until I'm finished browsing through its features... P/s:BTW Its a heck funny Talking Phone. :)

  • Can you plz tell me, that i can change moto rokrs case as a whole ? is that available in market ? OR only the side ones are replaceable ?

  • Apple's phone is such a big box... cant hold it for awhile. It must break my amrs.

  • aple will not be eating the mobile market for a longtime. The new iphone is nice but not everyones ready to dump 500 on a new phone with a 2r contract. Save some money buy the e2. Great phone...

  • you can't compare e2 with iphone. iphone is for high end users with great features. e2 is for mid range people.

  • just wait and buy the new apple iphone its the next phone genration and it will eat the markt so say bye bye to nokia and motorola apple will eat mobile market as it did in computers and hit microsoft and also in the mp3 player market with its amazing ipod

  • flashing is to update your cellphone firmware i did so to mine, upgraded to 45p ilove 3dIII now its faster, better camera quality, i could install spanish pack too! and the bluetooth works better NOW, do you know where can i download good soft? thank you kilinkis

  • @farhan Theres no rokr E2i, nvr heard of that, but what im sure is theres new rokrs coming. The newest one is E6, all is based on Linux UI, which is faster and stable. This is the LInux java and E6 is the Linux, somehow like the UIQ of symbian

  • can enyone answer to me: how loud music is playing through the loudspeakers? I want 2 buy phone with damn loud mp3 sound!

  • got one, love it. talking phone is really really funny. imagine attending lecture class and your phone suddenly tells you you have a message from your mother....or your phone reads out your private messages out loud because you forgot to turn the talking phone feature off...that all happened to me...

  • The news is leaked on some chinese websites. Rokr E2 is either out of stock or not selling here in my country after a brief launch.

  • To Haider: plz haider respond to me. i am from pak. [email protected]

  • the person below me revealed some information about upcoming of a upgraded mobile E2i. Does anybody know about this news?

  • Moto is coming out ROKR E2i, an updated version of the E2. It'll be available in more colors,have two stereo speakers, internal memory updated to 20MB, improved equaliser, twin stereo speakers lke E398.

  • is it possible to hack os to use 4 gb or 8gb sd card ?...

  • It is a very competitive equipment, since it has extraordinary functions, the truth I recommend it widely and congratulations to MOTOROLA for this equipment; I hope that in Mexico more models of MOTOROLA continue coming.

  • The best.

  • @ahmed I still don't get it...

  • @zirnsir it deserves approval..... besides the most important thing 2 me&all of u is price...which is cheaper than other trades(with less features) that is all....

  • how loud music is playing through the loudspeakers? I want 2 buy phone with damn loud mp3 sound!

  • I saw u all talking abt flashing the phone...wat do u actually mean by flash the phone ?

  • it happened by chance when i passed in front of mobiles store,i saw rokrE2,i searched net 2 collect inf abt it&thanks a lot 4 GSMARENA it helped me so much 2 decide what 2 buy...i just blame motorola 4 its very boor advertisment in egypt,imagine that i did not find it(rokr e2) in the most famouse mobile street center in egypt...i bought it from motorola customer service..nokia advertisments are in the most bus stop...imagine that..any way the mobile is fantastic..

  • @ahmed how did u get this fone?? i got mine from plemix

  • excellent one...i like it so much...i bought it 1 week ago..it has every thing youth need..audio&video player,fm radio,bluetooth,pc high speed connection, recording video up to 2 hours on 512 mb memory card, which can be replaced by 2gb one..what else you need to know?hey every one get rokr e2.. you never regret...

  • GOOD Guys, The platform example is nice (windows and mac comparison) this exactly explains the difference. Anyone can understand this easily. The color lights are fixed you cant change. I have black with orange on sides, LOOKS UNIQUE.

  • i seen pics that the black one lights up orange on the side and the white lights up white can you pick either color for both?

  • what color looks the best to yall the white or black?

  • both have different platforms juz like Microsoft's Windows and Mac. one can't install windows apps on mac and same is the case with symbian and linux based mobiles one thing that i personally know is this that linux is more customizable than symbian.

  • hey guy. Why dont you think before posting an opinion? This phone is JUIX and it supports jar,mpkg,lin and may be more... Symbian is not comparable to this.

  • Hey, Stop dont leave a word before using it. Its not smart phone i accept, but its LINUX based OS is ultimate not like NOKIA SYMBION (which often hangs and restarts). Its stable first understand, will not be virus prone. For sure the future versions of this will be smart phones. You cant install SIS files, First understand that its not symbion os, its linux obviously sis files will not work. It has its own supported softwares other than jars. Linux phones are on the way to highness, soon will will get more s/ws supported to these phones, as we have sis for symbion.

  • it is really the best musik fone is far better than all w-series in sounding

  • Only in US

  • the keypad lock of this fone is especially unique...nvr in he world is there a keypad lock lik this...though this fone's a little hard to use...but once u get the hang of it..it would be as simple as ABC..as for those people hu complain that they dun noe how to use it..well..its cos ur not a phone pro and ur knowledge is poor and low..this fone rockZ

  • are u crzy?? this phne is not same as nokia symbian os phne!! the software is hard to find! this phne is suck! its only cn use java file(.jar) n not symbian os file(.sis)!! u cnnot install game like u instll in nokia phone stupid!!

  • GsmArena should review this phone as they have done ROKR E1. do anybody know when this phone will be available in all over the world. is it available in Europe?

  • yes this phone like symba do can install app linux based but a bit more complex and require knowledge. but once u used 2 it everything goes well. this phone is ,now, one of the best in its class and can be compared with only with those smartphones.

  • Does any one know why the E2 music player does'nt have any Volume indicator? The music is damn loud playing through the music player application.... even though i adjusted it to the lowest..It's still very loud....It's not good for the ear...any comments about this? :D

  • this phone needs to be reviewed, i mean the rokr E1 got a review, didn't it?. So please gsmarena give this phone a review.

  • keypad lock using manual hardware is the worst thing in this phone. my phone facing problem with this worst manual keypad locked after purchase only 1 week. motorola customer service repair too slow, until now still not solved (2 weeks after claim for warranty repair). my suggestion, motorola must using key pad lock using key pad like ordinary phone. sound quality not good, not loud enough and equalizer not give a good sound as advertised.

  • Is the Linux OS in Motorola E2 like Symbian in Nokia phones???? Can I install aplications like symbian os mobiles?????

  • Does this phone has a "3D stereo speakers (16 mm, 22 Khz with vibration)" like Motorola E398 and rokr E1? or Just Ordinary Speakers.

  • Does this phone has a "3D stereo speakers (16 mm, 22 Khz with vibration)" like Motorola E398 and rokr E1? or Just Ordinary Speakers.

  • can anyone tell me why in some especs. bluetooth is Vr. 1.1 and in other it is vr 2.2. are there two models of rokr E2??? Thank you.

  • Nice man, you are rite. Now audio is enhanced. No more problems. MOTO ROKR is the best.

  • i think fones speaker i enough loud to hear mp3s at spatial audio its louder than se k750i and w800i

  • Guys got ROKR E2 audio through headphones is awesome. Very very happy abt it. Interface and Linux Based OS is also good. But audio from external speaker upseted me a lot. Its stereo, what is the use its not all audible. Ringtones cant be heard, i have to keep the speaker near my ears to hear it. How bad motorola ? I cant hear it in taffic and when its in my pocket. It will be heard only when there is pin drop silence. Even if its volume is 7 (max). what is the use of ringtones, i want to keep it in vibratory mode always... totally stupid. NO USE FOR EXTERNAL SPEAKER. Am i correct ? is there anyway to increase the volume ? I am upset to the core.

  • Just check this out, i found this blog. kinda a interesting to all

  • I like the motorola phone because of the sound quality that they had. the advantage of this phone is the standard headset jack, you dont want to buy a jack converter anymore. just check this out Cellphones and Gadgets thank you.

  • getting this fone in 2007 would be very good for ppl getting such great linux fone for 200 USD would be cheapest i think A2DP NO SONY WALKMAN HAD THIS except w710

  • ohh is this 2006 ......... what a fugly and stupid fone

  • zaid dont worry only few countries of asian market have got these fone the fones will arrive in euro market too but at start of 2007 well even e6 rokr has been released in china

  • hi everybody, I just wanna ask did anyone face any problems using the phone? and do you recomend it for a music lover? Im asking because I want to buy it but am afraid that i face many problems. thanks anyways

  • Motorola have no plans to release any ROKR models in europe.

  • Not that much advertisements but we know its music performance is superb. I only look for a real quality device not a big ads device.

  • well... finally i have it!!! yeah in argentina! but an uncle of mine bought it in malaisya well... i love it, but... music skips sometimes (4 or maybe more times per songs) maybe it can be fixed by flashing it, but i still dont find how kilinkis

  • E6 is the type of music phone consumer wants. If Moto got the right selling point and advertisments, this thing will be HOT!

  • please they alguem makes some review of this device. E does not forget to place photos taken off with it

  • Hey guyz.. Moto Rokr E6 is officialy announced in China. www.hellmoto.com click China and u will see the phone. Nice design.

  • is this phone compatible with macintosh ? i mean can i flash it with a Mac. Thanks !

  • can i open MSoffice or Adobe Acrobat files in this phone? i'd like 2 read it when im using my phone..

  • haider u r right my brother also have e2 rokr and sounds louder than e398 and is better in terms of quality too this fone deserves 10 of 10 really fantastic fone for ver very less

  • another link with pictures of Rokr E6: I've got some tech specs also: 14.5 mm thin, 2.4" QVGA touchscreen dispaly, 2MP camera, bar code reader, businesscard scanning, PDF reader, MS Office files. SD memory, MP3, MPEG4, AAC+, WAV and Real Audio, 3.5 mm standard jack, FM radio, USB 2.0, BT... not bad, ha:) only thing that bothers me - probably Moto will market this PDA phone mostly in Asia, not so much if at all in Europe... but we'll see.

  • I've been waiting for almost a year already for the Rokr E2 to be officially launched in Europe and now Moto have officialy released the Rokr E6 in China at 400 euro price... Probably I'll wait some more months to get the E6 being some better than the E2:)

  • hey me e2 is louder than e398 and r1 rokr really and sound through headfones is greater than n91's really

  • e2 is not loud than e or e398 but its sound is superb stereo and more detail..

  • i dont know about MMC card coz i have never used MMC i m sorry

  • hey ppl 3230 has mono speakers ok and mono speakers .................. e398 and e1 rokr has stereo one wid 3d and now e2 has also 2 speakers which also has a bit 3d effect but lesser as compared to e1 n e398 guys if u r interested in buying the fone check out its really very helpful here sound wise e2 rokr is the best market fone............ in asia E2 rokr sales are extra ordinary

  • Thanx very much haider well I modded and used motorola E398, and I`m really pleased with that's performance. Now I`m really love with this one, well guys how is it's MP3 player, I liked iTunes much for that's simplicity, I`ve already read the article from mobile review, but an user's opinion is the best. Thank you

  • The thing is that i own Nokia 3230. Hoping that it has stereo external speaker and stereo output and disappointed a lot. As later i found that it has only dual mono external speakers and dual mono output and can very well see the difference between other stereo phones and mine. Hope you all know nokia has promoted 3230 wrongly. Thats why i want to clearly know abt ROKR E2, before i own it.

  • Guy see, me too a hard core fan of moto. I am also very keen i buying MOTO ROKR E2. But the "media creation guide from motorola for rokr E2" disappointed me. Plz check that and confirm once. It says "There is no stereo speaker support for the Motorola ROKR E2 handset. Stereo ringtones will be played in mono. If the handset supports a stereo file and a stereo headset is attached, the file will be played in stereo". So i was confused and as you owned rokr e2 i should believe in what you say that it has two stereo speakers. So i can readily go for it. I will be happy you answer these questions also, *hows the loudness, is that good even for ringtones. *can we use MMC cards in the same SD slot in the handset.

  • hey guy all your answers are yes yes yes yes yes............................ no videos by mem. card are of very fine quality ok............. i tried jbench.... the result i got were good better than 5300,6233,6270 and even A1200

  • Hi all ROKR E2 owners, can you help me plz giving answers of these questions. Because I wanna buy this one... 1. Can it play fullscreen video (like side way or wide screen)? 2. I heard some one posted that playing video from memory card is choppy, is it? 3. Can I assign video file as a caller ID? 4. Do you used JBenchmark or JBenchmark2 software and can you tell me it's point? Thank you for your help.

  • for anybody who want buy music phone!!!! PLEASE check out this page: love m rokr!! hope this can help you :)

  • excuse me u ppl have you got mad i m a E2 rokr owner and it has two stereo speakers ok i know very well are you mad mono speaker dont be silly even e1 has superb stereo speakers ALAS you ppl ................... what u think do u ppl know every website rated this phone as best musik fone superior than even SEw-SERIES

  • So i cant expect the handset output as in sony walkman phones rite ? as they have stereo external speakers in the headset.

  • does the e2 virbarate when it play's? cos the e1 does

  • E2 got mono speaker is not strange. Actually E2 play mono sound through mono speaker. And dont worry about the sound through headphones.

  • Those who have this phone please clarify my previous query ?

  • Hi, Impressed by the phone i got deeper and gone through file from motorola "Creating media for ROKR E2" and found that the handset is not capable of playing stereo sounds. A music phone without stereo output, is shocking. I already have Nokia 3230 which has only dual mono speakers disappointed me a lot. This time also i dont want to do mistake by buying ROKR E2. please help me clarify this. Hope this will play stereo with headphones, but what abt external speakers. Does it have external stereo speakers like sony ericsson w550i Please help. NOTE : this is what i found in that "Overall bit-rate can exceed 64 kbps, but will not play in stereo. Note: There is no stereo speaker support for the Motorola ROKR E2 handset. Stereo ringtones will be played in mono. If the handset supports a stereo file and a stereo headset is attached, the file will be played in stereo." see the highlighted text what they are trying to say ?

  • For those of you thaat want to upgrade your fimware you can get it at www.freemod.net

  • maybe he use Vibrate mode for massage, heheh

  • My opinions: 1. Speakers is low and not that superb as E1/E398. Everybody see that! Ok? Enough for ringtones. 2. Camera is fine and the flash is stronger than E1/E398. 3. Sound quality through headphone is superior to all others brands. Dont forget the Spatial Audio, it makes the defference.

  • moto's performance is good....but sure it's not good for massaging and not meant for that purpose. for massaging you need to go Thailand. one can find massaging centers right from the airport onwards.best of luck.

  • TO THOSE PEOPLE WHO HAVE THE MOTO ROKR E2(& a video camera of course!) HI! LOL I hope u can spend some time making a short review of ur phone and upload it onto YouTube... THX :)

  • i really to know how long e2 can playing the music. is it loud. many people say motorola has not good performance in music and massaging. ringtone also not loud if compare with sony ericsson model.,

  • I took my E2 to MotorServiceOne to check out some of the issue that I need clarification: The answer I got from the Motorola representative. 1. The speaker volumn (incoming call) - is low. Is like that. Flashing with other version will void the warranty. 2. The motorola phone special feature that we all love. The reminder 'dot' if we have a miss call/ sms that we forgot to attend. It is also not available on E2. 3. When incoming call, you accidentailly pressed the volumn key on the left will mute the ringtone. It is also normal behavior. Oh my god. They put in so much nice feature in E2 and took out all the goods one what suppose to be in every motorola product.

  • is it stereo or not? will somebody answer please?

  • the speaker located at back side of the phone, on the left side camera. also 2 small speaker beside the earphone jack.

  • where is dis phone speaker????

  • i have e2 rokr and i'll say that radio by e2 is louder than all SE products and sound quality is not inferior than even w550i well headphone produce very very loud soun of some songs

  • can i know is this phone can use .jar only or both .jar and .sis?

  • BOW DOWN TO THE KING!!This is the best music phone on the planet.What?? camera??who needs that?it has other features that are found only on fones 1.5 times it's price. P.S. Guys in INDIA, the wait is finally over!!!The rokr E2 will be here in approx. 3weeks.

  • you'll hear the difference if you flash to 43p. its definitely louder.

  • Hey pals , if i did flash my E2 with the lastest chinese 43P firmware , does it get REALLY LOUD for the SPEAKER ?? , i mean is it a TRUE different ?? plz answer me .. mine is 38P !

  • E2's speaker actually is not as superb and loud as E1. But it is enough to hear ringtones. However you will be pleased with headphone music.

  • hhmmmm, hello guyz! i got the Rokr E1, i like him, but wondering about the Rokr E2, i've been reading all those comments :D:D 1st, the rokrE2 doesn't have a Stereo with 2 Speakers, it has one... and i woudn't say that the quality is worse, but mabe not so loud as the E1, and mabe stereo it's more likeable to hear... what u ppl Think ??? ? 2nd, Does the R.E2 have the flasing Lights (the rhythm lights..) ?? :P i'm really curious!! ! i really was impressed with the speakers of the R.E1 phone, they really did something special! i've been wondering a litle, by knowing that it has only one speaker .. pls answer me. .. 10x !

  • E2 can ring and vibrate aat the same time. Im only happy with the screen and the sound quality. Both are superior to other brands.

  • Hey pals , if i did flash my E2 with the lastest chinese 43P firmware , does it get REALLY LOUD for the SPEAKER ?? , i mean is it a TRUE different ?? plz answer me .. mine is 38P !

  • i've bought e1 before and it can't vibrate and ringing in the same time.. is this phone hv the sme trouble??

  • The shortcut key is the joystick only. how about if i would like to customize shortcut key for key #1-9? Yup, the voice command is very cool. But it can't recognized what i say most of the time. Compare to older version of C series, where it allow us to do voice recording for voice dailing. It would be much better. Plus, the older C series also can create shortcus key by press .

  • yeah you can use the voice command function to dial a number. to change the shortcuts, just click on options on the main screen and customize home. yes the e2 only has 1 speaker, it doesnt mean that the sound is bad though. e2 is made for the purpose of it being your mobile media player, so they focused on the 3.5mm jack. the speaker is still loud on fmradio but not on mp3(which means its not a speaker problem), but this can be easily fixed by flashing your phone.

  • I just got my ROKR E2. Not really get use to the function/ navigation yet. I've try the voice command. Very frustrating. Can E2 do voice recording for dailing? Can we create our own shortcut key to function what we want?

  • can anyone tell me is that true this phone is only have 1 speaker? so, the sound will be bad?

  • can anyone tell me is that true this phone is only have 1 speaker? so, the sound will be bad?

  • @drew hmmm... not really sure why you're not able to edit your gprs settings... 43p and 40p comes w/ 2 preloaded settings on it, i dont know what their names are since its in chinese. but I just went to data connections, removed both of them and made my own settings using cingular's settings =] i can now happily browse the web and send MMS w/o any issues =] as for the speed, again not really sure why you have a slow speed, since i never really experienced any slowness in my phone. only thing w/ 43p and 40p is that they're branded, but that shouldn't be a problem soon since we are already able to telnet to the phone and soon enough we should be able to remove preloaded stuffs in there.

  • To: KJ No, my motorola E2 is not faulty. I tried both my friend'd and mine. First, the firmware i had is the official 38p which is still currently the latest in singapore. The firmware I upgraded through the internet is 43p (with increase volume) As mentioned, it' a china unofficial version and i can't edit GPRS setting with that. Thus can't received or sent MMS not to talk about surfing. Menu speed is still slow, in fact speed of menu, applications, togglering from music player to messaging does not have any difference in firmware from 38p to 43p.. yes, i heard that it's faster than firmware 33p and under but my 7610 (one of the older symbian phone) with personalise theme is still faster. Now that's ridicluous! And i'm now staring to imagine how previous user like u can bear with those old firmware.. As for battery life, This is a music phone made in 2006, screen is turn off, there's power saver mode that turn off keypad light in bright environment and i remembered setting the brightness to 2, and backlight time to 10sec and standby time still fell shorter than my good old 7610 by half a day! Imagine most sony walkman series as well as k750i till my w850i can beat it with similar usage capacity by an extra 1.5 days!! Just as u mentioned not using itap for smsing.. imagine for someone like me who does.. it's just a pain. Enough said.

  • Question: Do VBR Mp3's Work and Chinese Titled Songs work now? Unlike on the E1.

  • it seems that your e2 is bad drew. my e2 never hangs up on me. i got my e2 w/ 33p firmware on it, and it doesnt have any problems except of course the mp3 playback using loud speaker. but easily fixed the problem by flashing to 36p, 43p or the new official firmware 40p. and i can still use my gprs as well as my mms, just need to setup the settings the properly. the settings should be available in your provider's website or if not, you can always call them. battery life on my e2 is good as well, before i bought my e2 i was actually thinking about getting an extra battery, but it doesnt seem to be necessary as the battery life stays good even though i always play mp3, fm radio and do some calls and txt messages once in a while. i dont have a comment w/ the dictionary since i never use iTap. but for the speed, the software speed is decent on my 33p firmware but went zzzoooommmmm... when i flashed to 43p. couldn't agree more about the sleep mode clock! when the screen light is off, the screen light is really off! i guess its just really a matter of preference, i really love my e2! way better than my previous phones, way cheaper too! has an awesome screen (i found a movie converter software, and the quality is killer!!! damn nice!)

  • Ok. Had sold away this phone. Here is my honest opinion. Phone's software regardless of even the latest one is buggy and problematic. 1. Phone's dictionary is vary limited. U can't even find simple daily words. 2. Phone could not remember save word, sometimes even on the same day, i had to go to the normal editing (non predictive) to input similar word 'save" earlier. 3. Phone's software is a tag slower even to my good old 7610. 4. Poor battery life. Standby time is not as good as my other phones such as 6233 or my current w850i, it loses out to almost a day which in my point of view is really bad. 5. No option to turn on sleep mode clock. When screen's light goes off, screen is completely blank. 6. Low mp3 playback on external speaker. I don't usually use it to play mp3 but when phone rang, i could hardly hear it when kept in pocket even in quiet place. Yes, there's forum that appears on WWW with firmware to mod E2 and increase external ringtone etc.. but it's not useful. First, ringtone did not significantly get louder, second upon upgrading, u will lose the ability to use GPRS and u can't even MMS. Why cos these firmware are made only for china market thus no settings for u to configure to your country and u can't even accept OTA settings from your service provider. Second, some of these firmware allows you to change ithe themes of your E2. But what's the point, since using nokia 6600, i had being editing of making my own themes. Even now when switch of sony, their theme editor is much more sophisticated and it's a official sony software. As much as this phone do have some plus points like a very screen and quality of mp3 played through earphone. It doesn't serve well in basci features of what a phone really needs.. which is the primary purpose of communication.

  • I got a problem that it cant play music through the speaker with 3.5mm jack. Although it can play through a headphone (3.5mm) very good.

  • I am posting opinion using my rokr e2. Got mine 2 mnths now and got to vouch for this as screen and internet cnection rivals my hp laptop! I can multitask with text, music, internet at same time and thoroughly enjoy it for hours . I have sony ericson w900 but use e2 more. For less than half the price the value is the same. Good bang for the buck...

  • yes you need to have a headphone connected before you can turn on the fm radio, then you can play it using the loudspeaker. if you press the music button or the play button, it will direct you to the music files, there you will be able to browse by playlist, genres, etc...

  • hey well i need some help with this phone ive already got the rokr e1 and i wanna upgrade to the rokr e2 and the rokr e2 has a music symbol where does that take you like with the rokr e1 it takes you to itunes but tha rokr e2 doesnt hav itunes please send a message and tell me

  • Do you have to plug in the headphones to listen to the radio? Or does the E2 have an internal radio receiver(anntena)?

  • yes it can be in full screen. MP4, 3GPP and RM. THis is moto's LINUX half-smart phone =) with real player in it

  • I want to know only one thing about this phone:can it play videos in full-screen? And if it can,what are the suported file types and what is the quality like(again, in full screen mode)

  • The fact that ROKR E2 is the leader is not so suprirising, the phone turned out very successful in all directions (other functions are great as well). But manufacturer is not in a rush to release this model as quickly as possible, it will hit the shelves only in Autumn. At that moment the positions can change, but I still think that the model will remain impressive, it�s jus the competition between already available music phones that will grow, and it is very interesting to say the least (remember that the design will not suit everyone, it�s a mobile phone for young people). Sony Ericsson�s products W800i and W810i are rather interesting as well.As for W900i, this model does not look so appealing when compared to the competitiros, it has low price/quality ratio. The situation is same for Nokia 3250, there is almost 2x gap between the leader and this model. We can always say �hey, it�s a smartphone, it means�� and what just this means exactly? We were comparing only �musical� part of the handset, and this part has been inferior when compared to others. This is why it takes last place in our rankings, this position is well-deserved. We did not include phones that are coming from higher price segment, but we are already working on another material that will concentrate on those models. It�s just because smartphones have so many issues. Once again I�d like to point out that you can select only those functions, that you actually need, after that try calculating the score again, we clearly described the method. Perhaps some model will become more attractive than others just for you. For those who are interested in other functions as well, I can advice looking into corresponding reviews, we had a lot of photos of displays, references to realizations of one or other functions. To cut the long story short, you have the stuff what you can read, go on!

  • great handphone with great sound. better than other se or nokia products..

  • eh... is there additional softwares/applications that we can download from other websites and install them on E2?

  • Thank god, what an improvement from the old ROKR. -I love the big 320x240 screen, thats almost as big as my E680i, which means I can watch my movies on this too! - 3.5mm Jack, what a great idea. I wish all music cellphones switch to this. Why mess with tinny sounding headsets, when u can plug in your own headphones & earbuds. Koss! - SD up to 2GB, good move. But I wish there was more built in memory. Like E680i, built in memory is 50mb. Either up the built in memory or allow higher capacity SD cards. But 2GB is more than enough for a day's worth of songs & videos. - Camera is also not bad, could be better, but definitely standard level now. Once again, bigger built in memory would help in this department. No point in having gd cam, but no space to store it in. - Looks: this ROKR looks much better. It looks fun, like a bar of soap or something much friendlier than the E1. No doubt the new curves are so that the side music buttons can be accessed a bit easier, but it does make the whole phone look better. Not so boxy. I do wish the space allocation for the screen would be better. They should flaunt the 320x240 by framing it nicer, with less empty space at the sides & bottom. SE phones does this better than Moto, as a result their phones look like they have HUGE screens. Look at the wasted space below the screen, they could have made the buttons bigger or moved it up a bit. But all in all i think its a much better phone than E1 by far. Hope it doesnt hang, and if i were to get it, I'll definitely take the black, since the white looks too much like its failed sibling, E1.

  • hmmm

  • Hello, Guys! I love you! I have this phone and it's amazing. The screen is great, and i love it. I've been waiting a long time to buy this phone!

  • i like to buy this. little bit worried about joystick,older SD card ,linux OS,and flash light only for camera use. but its ok. but when it will available in India..? announced date seems to be Jan 06. But not available up to date. or am I wrong ?. is it available..?

  • yea i have a black rokr, its a good phone, good sound quality. Pros: Good screen(10/10) Good music quality(9.5/10) Good transfer speed avrg 4.5 MBPs one of the fastest music transfer device in the MARKET! USB2.0 FAst speed for this im super pleased!! (10000/10) lol SD card XD payed $28USD for it 1GB card, SAndisk Cons Hard to press buttons but luckily, good joystick Speaker volume not super loud but audible ,gd quiality Well guyz, almost it, i enjoyed that phone. The phone i used is a prototype but i noticed not much bugs. The phone released must be muich better, hope they improve on the volume They use Sharp's screen so its clear

  • i agree with ucuv55 oppinion,i have e398@rokr then buy rokr e1. no better sound than rokr e1 or e398@rokr, i think. ROKR E2 ?? not sure

  • Tks DGraham for the info on new firmware.. I actually found it here: (Pls copy n paste this in your browser) Anyone interested can give this firmware a try.. I'm downloading it now.. :-)

  • Nice review Drew, and about the speaker being not too loud and the kinda slow interface, you can fix those 2 things by updating your firmware, the newest version (ends with 43P), has a higher volume and it's way faster, you can get it on a forum but I dunno if I'm allowed to post the link in here.

  • Ok, had this phone for a week now and my verdict, this phone is really good and is one of a kind. 1st, to answer most of u curious buyer's question, yes, the ringtone (played thru loudspeaker) is not loud. it's actually only average and slightly lower than my SE w850i. It's however still audible especially with certian loud mp3. 2nd, like it's mentioned in "mobile-review.com" The screen is FASTASTIC! Clear, bright, responsive, vivid and colourful. 3rd, as it's using linus OS, do expect it to perform slight "sluggishly",, but i can assure u that it's still faster than any symbian phones out there including n73. last but not least, sound quality output from E2 is better than any SE walkman series. I had several difference comparison (all using SE's HPM-70 provided by my w850i) using diff genre of music and E2 proved to produced better "highs and lows" in most music. During the 2nd test, i pluged in a better pair of earphone (creative aurvana) w850i sound better this time but in many occasion just managed to go on par but not better than e2. I strongly recommend anyone who wants a convergence between mp3 player and mobile phone to try out ROKR e2. However if you would like slightly more function and a batter camera, can try out the new w850i but be prepared to payat least 70% more compared to E2.

  • this fone really deserves 9 out of ten and is similar in rating for that of sony ericsson W-850i i have got white one but black is better i think avg rating 4 this fone= 9.5 out of 10 mobile-review.com rated it as the best music fone

  • i have this phone this is amazing i love it

  • the motorola e2 looks like to me the good cellular one but the form and i do not like atte:ari

  • in fact, apple has a cell phone! it've been made yet! i didn't see any pic, but apple create a cell phone that looks like an ipod... it'll be on sale next year

  • @bryan the battery is decent. normally i use my phone to listen to a lot of mp3's then fm radio and do some phone calls every now and then in a single charge.

  • @bryan the battery is decent. normally i use my phone to listen to a lot of mp3's then fm radio and do some phone calls every now and then in a single charge.

  • talking phone is a feature on the phone wherein the phone is gonna read to you whatever is selected on your screen =]

  • from where did u heard the word talking phone

  • what is talking phone?

  • question not a comment? hows the battery? does it last long? wats the average battery life? when using the radio or the mp3 player, how long does the battery life last basing on a single charge? anyone?

  • hmmm not sure why mine is in menu > settings > phone settings > then you should see talking phone in there

  • my motorola rokr e2 does not have talking phone function in menu. does anybody have any idea about it.

  • on ebay it costs at an average of $240-$250

  • quote: "you know? apple is such better than linux" Whats up with that? Com'on, just look at the sales from the first MOTOROKR. And here's a fact in case you don't know, Apple & Linux are UNIX. Which only means crap! Herbert Talabis

  • How can apple be better than linux. there are no apple mobile phones

  • sorry, but i hate this mobile! well, motorola is so donkey, you know? apple is such better than linux... i'd never buy a phone based on linux. i still prefer my old-fashioned rokr E1... maybe Rokr e3 will be better!

  • Of course it does!

  • does moto e2 has speaker phone?????thanks

  • Motorola ROKR E2 will be released in europe mid.january.

  • 1. So when you, guys, lucky to have the phone already, try to play some .avi/ .mpeg files - does the Rokr play them, or just freezes? I've heard it lacks processing power and couldn't play video files. What about trying some codecs if any available? 2. Launched in Europe - when???.... Last days of Sept already... come on Moto!!!

  • Well, for the guys that were asking: -The E2 can record video, and play it fullscreen, use them as alarms or caller ID. -When you take a picture you can edit it, add text, paste other pictures or parts of them, crop, resize, change to black and white, antique, negative, etc. -Wallpapers are not animated, just the screensavers.

  • ROKR E2 is the best

  • Why dont you guys just check out E2's review on

  • writing speeed areounf 5mbps

  • ugly

  • this is to all of u who have this phone ...or who know what i'm asking....does the e2 have that nifty fullscreen video playback the e100 has? cause i realy like the phone and want to get one

  • pls ppl dat hav dis pone,does it hav video recording,and wat cool stuff can u do wit de pics taken...and does it support moving backgrounds or just stilll pics?

  • Does anybody know where I can find out the speed of the SD card slot? Thanks

  • Finally got this phone, about a week ago and it rocks, the new UI works really good, a bit laggy sometimes but that can be fixed with a firmware update, the camera is fine for me, the radio works great and it's louder than the Media player, I compared the speaker volume with a SE W810 and it's almost the same, and can be increased with some modding, using earphones the sound is amazing, comparable to a mp3 player. The SMS/EMS/MMS app works pretty good and I like the way iTap works. Well, I really really like this phone,the only thing I need now is a software version with spanish for texting and voice recognition, which by the way works pretty good too.

  • GSMArena - please fix your specification page. The E2 has Bluetooth Class 2.0 with A2DP. It has Edge Class 6 . Please can we havea review of this phone too. GSMArena ,you are getting very tardy with phone reviews .

  • That is actually funny. Have you been tango-ed.

  • DISCONTINUED? Expansys are marking this phone as discontinued.

  • setting mp3s as ringtones is actually easy to setup. and yes e2 supports edge. and as far as the price, go to ebay. price range is $250 - $300

  • Finally - Is E2 support EDGE or not?

  • This phone is consider quite outdated, anyway the music features is quite good. Check out the comprehensive review

  • iz E2 funtion hard to handle?..ex:hard to put mp3 song as ringtone like L7?..izit tru it cant go smooth wen listen to music n watchin' video?..

  • the feature is just fine.. but i think the phone design a little bit weird. too small. where's the stereo speaker? i'm not sure this phone have better sound than ROKR E1..

  • i heard tat when playing songs wif E2, the song is not smooth, sometimes got hang a little bit... (if u use .mp3 format)

  • this phone has only one minus point its loud speaker is so soft if motorola send e2 with same e398 speaker then this phone is really rocks

  • good one farha

  • i had rokr e1 now i have rokr e2 and they changed a lot in the phone i think that E2 if verry good and i cant wait for rokr E3

  • how many times it is declared that e2 is far better than w810i and 6233 ok bye

  • yeah, the radio will work w/o headphones. as far as the camera, its just average. nothing really special w/ it. but the radio and music playback is awesome.

  • The external speaker is softer than V3i and L7. Don't make noise on the bus use a earphone. Be considerate to the people around dude.

  • this seems to be a good value for money phone.its not yet available in india.i want to know about the camera quality.can anyone tell me?i want to buy a phone.which is better W810i,N6233 or MotoE2.please help?

  • @all user who got this cell.....plzz plzz brothers tell about its external speakers is it loud or just ok..if we compered it with...6233....or....slvr7....or if its quite how quite it is?is it like w800?plzz guide me

  • den does dat mean witout d headphone oso the E2 radio will work?....

  • to muvo: no you dont need the original headphones to use the radio. because unlike some of the other phones out there, E2's radio antenna is not on it's headphones. =]

  • Received this phone a week ago. Solid phone, good looking, lots of features! USB 2.0 (ten times faster transfers than old E1.) Many supported audio formats: MP3, WMA, AAC, Real (W810 can learn a good lesson here.) SUPERB QVGA (320x240) screen! It's just beatiful. Standar 3.5mm heasphone jack is quite convenient, and it uses cheapest memory cards available. Motorola has a winner! This phone will become a Classic.

  • ? to someone who already has the phone: have you guys tried to listen to the FM radio with some other than the original headphones? I've read somewhere that the radio on Rokr E2 works only with the original earphones, which would not be pleasing. 10x

  • Different ppl, different ways of thinking. You guy really have to buy and try it out.

  • Hardcorebeaver - thanks for the info. Could you tell me if this phone can be set to automatically answer with the headphones connected? I.e., ringtone in the headphones then answer itself without you having to touch any buttons at all. Many thanks. Tangoman.

  • Just bought this phone, very good phone and to answer those common question... video capture - last as long how much spac u have on ur memory card. box says up to 2 hrs of recording time, never tried it my self but i got to 10 mins on recording. voice command is great - can open programs with and set profiles with voice command, voice dialing, etc.. mp3 player - i like better cuz ur not restricted to certain types of media like iTunes software on v3i and slvr. memory card- up to 2gb on SD. can be used for variety of stuff like holding movies mp3s pictures etc.. movie playback- video laggs so sound doesnt sync with video. i copied 3 eps of prison break on there and not enough processing power to sync video with sound. camera light - no u can't use it as a torch light. its only there at the moment of taking a picture. web browsing- uses opera web browser which really cool, unlike the wap stuff u get with other phones, this reads out xhtml html etc.. speakers - its only one speaker but quality is great, not as loud as i thought it would be. its a solid phone, i love it, its a little slow on but hasnt hanged on me yet like others mentioned.

  • Buy @ your own RISK...

  • I brought tis phone for a week or two. 1. Hang almost everyday. 2. Bluetooth wasnt as gd as it surpose to be when connection with stereo headset. You have disconnect it in main screen and reconnect bt again when in mp3 player. 3. The processing was very slow also apply to msging. Even when typing in normal speed. 4. It's multi-tasking sometime can't really hold up to more than one applications. 5. Battery life can only last for one and a half day usage. 6. Ringtones was rather soft, same goes to listening to music using speaker. It doesnt has sound bassing E398 and E1 roker. Only thing i like is the New user program. But still it a Disappointment!!!

  • can any one tell me which phone has more sound e1 or e2 and performance wise which is better to buy e1 or e2....

  • friends if we compered the loudness of loud speakers Motorola SLVR L7ss with ROKR E2 which one is the loudest

  • The sound coming from earphone doesn't seems very loud at max. volume.

  • I found this page and thought that maybe it could be interesting to someone. There is a picture of the headset by the way. Did not know that it was possible to have a microphone on a 3.5mm headset together with a button that answeres the calls so you don�t need to put your hand inside your pocket and try to find the right button there just to answere.

  • thanks...and can E2 upgraded or personalise it?example E398 as far as i kno it can upgraded to E1..i mean can E2 download cool or nice nice software?

  • theres no 3.35mm headset jack. Theres only 2.5mm and 3.5mm headset jack. 3.5 mm is the standard one, which u can buy any headset and get fit in to rokr E2 perfectly, whereas 2.5mm, commonly used in mobile phones are not the standard one, which u need to buy an adapter

  • Halo i wanna no can E2 upgraded or personalised it?..And wat is the difference between 3.5mm headset jack and 3.35mm headset jack?..does it produce better sound or its louder?..let me no asap thanks....!

  • why dont the gsmarena team post a review on this mobile? it's kool enough to have one

  • i read the all opinions..so i guess that the sound qulaity through speakers is not loud its just like w800..but its produce nice sound

  • This phone is already being sold here in Costa Rica for $350 (imported) but I have a question: Is there any version with spanish on the menus or iTap? Cuz I don't want to be using multitap to SMS.

  • i have a problem........... why motorola e2 bluetooth works very slow when connected with a SE phone i tried w300i k700i and k610i it is very slow and when i connected it with 6630 and other nokia products i worked superb and when it was connected with e1 it was very very fast............ e1 bluetooth has same problem with SE

  • Very pleased with my purchase of the E2. Am impressed with the sound quality when using headphones. However, when I use the equalizer setting and turn on spatial stereo with bass boost I can hear an occasional 'popping' noise during mp3 playback. I guess the phone has some trouble processing the digital signal with so many audio 'enhancment' settings. But the noise is gone once I switch the equalizer off. The sound is still excellent nevertheless. Regarding the loudspeaker, I use mp3 songs as a ringtone and although the sound is not as loud as my old V360 it is more refined and detailed. I guess the Moto engineers opted for quality sound rather than harsh noise.

  • Also the E2 is quiet compared to an E1. I guess they went away from the loud speakers design.

  • Motorola ROKR E2 or SE W810? It really comes down to personal preference. I have used both and this is my take: Pros 1. Motorola has done amazing things with the visual aspect of the interface. 2. Dedicated buttons are amazing again. I hate the keypad lock in bar phones but Motorola has a keypad lock button at the side. Very nice. Also has play/pause, fwd, and rew while the W810i only has play. 3. 3.5mm jack. 4. The display really is as good as they say. 5. SD Memory. Cons 1. Heavy phone 2. Slow navigation. 3. Camera is average at best. If you care about a camera then the W810 is a better purchase. But other than that Motorola really put significant thought into the design of the new ROKR. It is a sensible phone and if Motorola started putting better cameras in their phones they would really show up SE. Disclosure - I ended up buying the E2 since I am not a huge camera phone person. A 1.3 MP camera with flash was sufficient for me.

  • @Unknown & those - Who wanna know about flashlight **Go buy yourself a torchlight Nokia 1100 instead, don't buy this phone., you all ask some alien question.** And to all those geting your head banged about ringtone and sound quality, plz read the whole forum before posting repeated question. remember you may not be the only concerned about the matter.

  • is E2 speakres are LOUDER then V3i??

  • Is the flash function is limited to the moment of the photo capture only???Or the LED is able to light constantly.And the speakers is loud or just normal??? or if we compare the E2 speakers with NOKIA6233 who will won the battle???which one is the loudest?

  • 6233 is louder but in terms of quality, rokr E2 is better. the loudness of E2 is acceptable

  • Motorola ROKR-E2 vs Sony-Ericcson W-series vs Nokia 3250: I've read that article and i can't wait to buy Moto E2...

  • Have had the phone for about four days already i think its awesome its a big step up from my Motorola V551. The problem i had with mine is the battery is too big for my phone and the back doesn't want to close with it. The speaker could have been louder and the menu set up isn't typical of a Motorola Phone because its sort of complicated to use. The camera is great and pretty nice for a 1.3 MP. The music equalizer is pretty sweet because you can actually tell the difference between the music. The music buttons on the side make it easy to switch between songs. The phone is very similare to a Sony Ericsson phone, my friends have the w600. Great buy and well worth it, way better than the original ROKR and music can be used as ring tones.

  • I just got the E2 and have a 1Gb sd card on it i like to know if it support a 4Gb SD card. Thanks

  • FAT but CUTE!!! a very nice style, features, performance but when it will release in the philippines??? and how much???

  • Is the flash function is limited to the moment of the photo capture only???Or the LED is able to light constantly.And the speakers is loud or just normal???

  • @johan if u r trying to compare sound quality through external speakers, then surely W550 will beat E2. but dont even think that W550 will beat E398 too. E398 has one of the best sound ever produced through external speakers. i own E398 myself and i have compared its sound to every walkman phones. If u dont believe come and listen to its sound from my mobile. its surprising that u had E398 and still you r telling this. maybe u havent utilized the full potential of E398.

  • Well...... gutterboy420 gets up from sleep says lalala!!! shee this mobilereview.com/moto...... well for u gutterrboy420 u should know 98% people here have seen that.And the question they are asking are not in that review like about symbian apps,loudness of sound,flash,linux etc.. @haider..... hmmmmm..... well everybody is saying haider has the phone ask him!!! So Mr.Rokr(haider) u said it runs symbian applications but {{{rokrberry{{{ said he tried and it only runs java.This gives us 2 conclusions 1.either u dont have rokr E2 2.u dont know wht symbian apps means. So i would appreciate if u tell the people here ...... choose either option 1 or option 2. its all up to u

  • everyone do your self a favor www.mobile-review.com/review/motorola-e2-1-en.sh­tml

  • Does anyone know this Rokr E2 is using microSD or just SD card?

  • Did any of you guys buy this phone? If someone did, it would help me a lot if he/she discribed it. Thanx in advance.

  • I want to know how much video time motorola Rokr e2 films and if it has iTunes.

  • Loudness n quality is diff tho, there's no use having loud sound but distorted quality.

  • I wanted to know if the Rokr E2 has iTunes. E how many minutes of video it films.

  • very very good and very very beauty

  • correction to my statement below, E2 does not have "torch light" features... or how ever you call it in mobile phones terms... :p

  • to the unnamed below, E2 does not have "flash light" feature, however the LED above the camera acts like a flash light when you try to grab any photo under low light conditions.

  • personally i cant see why u people want to compare the e2 with the w550. sound quality firstly is batte on NO OTHER PHONE than the w550. thats the loudest phone i know of. i think motorola must work more on the looks of there phone than on the features of the phone. i had the e398 and dnt think there will be a big increase on the quality of the sound in the e2.

  • Is the flash function is limited to the moment of the photo capture only???Or the LED is able to light constantly.And the speakers is loud or just normal???

  • 4-5 MB per sec

  • What is the transfer speed of USB and Bluetooth in ROKR E2?

  • Is the flash function is limited to the moment of the photo capture only???Or the LED is able to light constantly.And the speakers is loud or just normal???

  • Hey Guys, Anybody noticed that the specs have been updated. It now says that it has EDGE, although class 6 only; but anyways no service providers in India provides you the class 10 speed that the device would be capable of. (Or did I miss this specification when reading it earlier, I think it only said GPRS class 10) ROKR E2 is the best ... Come soon to India..plz listen Motorola....launch it quick

  • I came to the conclusion that nobody in the UK knows about the ROKR E2 and nobody is interested in the ROKR E2 in the UK.

  • Some of you are so confused...Why are you even considering comparing the w550 and the rokr? They are so completely different its ridiculous. I don't even know where to begin, but they're different. I have owned the entire W line of phones (except 710, 850, and 950 of course) and if you're going to compare any of them to the rokr, it should be w700, w800, or w810. What are you comparing w550/600 for? 1.3 mpx camera? I'm starting to think many of you have never owned a single phone you speak of. I'll still never buy one (too big, and too round), but the rokr is AWESOME. Regards.

  • Guyz! what do that freak mean by beat by far?? 256 MB only? Not even a QVGA screen, no 3.5mm headset, no 5MBPS transfer speed? that guy is a holy crap guyz

  • the camera its the crap. why to worry about the flash if it can produce good pictures, and the phone if supposed to bought for it music capabilities.

  • To peter or sarah or ...... that flash is kinda strong and is gd for night photos

  • @ John, Nisha, Zahid, Vicky, steve, Anthony, Sunny, Peter, Sara: You need to seriously never ever ever ask that damn question again. I have never in my life seen someone change their name and ask the same question so many times. No one is going to answer you...ever, so give up. I hope for your sake and everyone else's that you're a bot.

  • Is the flash function is limited to the moment of the photo capture only???Or the LED is able to light constantly.And the speakers is loud or just normal???

  • wat about flash is it only work whenu take pic not flash reegular like w800 or k750....and speakers is lod or just normal plzz tell me who have this phone

  • is this is true that its flash just fire when u take pics not use as a torch???

  • Hi guys, I regularly see u'r updates, well haider, hope u'r enjoying the phone. I haven't got it yet. By the way you mentioned it support .sis file, did u meant Symbian System File, but rokrberry coudn't use that, how can you do that, well i think you should summerize some point, like give a refer to mobilereview.com, and tell us which feature is absent and which is not. And to all, judge yourself, different person's taste differ, so if one say it's better and another say it's not, don't get u'r self confused, just hang on and the truth will be revealed,

  • -UK- -UK- Does anyone at GSM or MOTOROLA know when the ROKR E2 will be released in the UK ???

  • I paid US$290 including shipping... On eBay!

  • is moto rokr e2 is better than SE w550i in terms of loudness????

  • Hey Haider, how much did this cell costed u ? If possible plz mention in USD.

  • -w550i has 3 speakers vs rokr e2 1 speaker, w550i speakers are better and louder than rokr e2. via headset, they sound the same (at least to my ears) -rokr e2 flash is strong, and it only fires when you take a picture -rokr e2 casing/cover is not replaceable -phone software is slower than w550i, i use a 1gb sd card and i do not see any speed difference vs. using a 128mb sd card -powerful joystick? how do you measure that? all i can say is the joystick is responsive -you can pause, ff, rewind video and audio during playback -i tried to put an .sis file in the memory card and the phone does not recognize it/cannot execute (understandable coz this is not a symbian phone). so far i have successfully installed .jar files only. i haven't seen any linux apps yet that can be used in this phone

  • hows its loud speakers work...its loudly like 6270 or not???and its flash it strong or not????can we change its cover??

  • its not as loud as N70 but the quality is better than N70, it is louder than SE phones and u can add bass boost to make it louderr=p

  • interesting the 2g memory, but does the cell get slow with so much memory?

  • hai plzz tell me about its loud speakers is it really loud or just like low w800 or wat about its flash is it strong like d600 plzz guide me

  • wat about its external speakers and how many speakers this phone got?

  • tell me plzz abiut its joystick is it powerful or its like also sonyek750 or w800 and external speakers is it loud enough

  • haider: Can you tell me whether it's possible to rewind or pause video during playback? Thanks.

  • hello friends i like this cell.is its sound is loud enough through loud speakers?6230 sound is very loud is this one is louder then 6230

  • its haider and i have e2 ask whatever you want............... 1) e2 is able to run *.SIS FILES and many other files which smartfone doesnt supports ok. 2) I agree with neha e2 speakers are not inferior than w550i's quality of e2 speakers i a bit better than w550i but w550i has crispy loud and superb sound.......... i think e2 has very better sound than k750i..... 3) w550i cannot be compared with e2 becoz its the latest music designed cell and w550 is a bit older........... e2 has far better display,music features,blue tooth devices, OS , durabilty of OS, comfort , size , memmory , video capturing and playback, music file ty[pes supported , media player (both iTunes and moto's own)............................................­...................... wel w550i is a bit priecy as for 256 mb only and e2 comes with 1 gb mem card SONY is competor but e2 compete w850i i think..................... which doesnt offers better features than it i think and would be at 2 times of its cost like w900i............................. display of e2 is best in market.......... speakers are simmilar to e1 which are i think superb but the sound is amplified and is very loud than e1 but e1 features better sound through speakers i think and has best quality

  • wat about its external speakers is it louds or just ok

  • farbwn, it's linux-based phone! that mean it might run only linux applications! symbian apps are made for symbian operating systems like in nokian s60 series smartphones... the only way to run symbian app at non-symbian OS is to run it in 'symbian virtual machine' application (like running Java apps at any j1me/j2me-compatible phone).. but it's very difficult anyway..

  • @farbwn i dont have rokr E2. my inputs are based on the opinions of E2 user who post their opinion in different sites, and i tell only when i am confident about the post.i have also downloaded the rokr e2 manual from motorola hongkong site. i also have the draft manual copy which motorola had submitted for FCC approval in US. i am following this mobile from the day it was announced (i.e january) and i am eagerly waiting for this download. had not motorola postponed its release i would have already had this mobile and then i would have been able to answer better. but when i do get the phone, this will be one of the first site where i will be posting a detailed review along with comparison with some of the mobiles. i know how much important it is to get feedbacks from the actual users. regarding it being supporting symbian softwares, u better ask hyder, as only he is repeatedly telling that it does. @surge you r welcome.follow this link to download rokr e2 english manual. it will help you knowing more about e2 before you actually het one @khurram E2 has only got one external speakers and so dont expect any stereo sound from it. dont expect too much from its external speakers. @neha through external speakers, W550 has the best sound any sony phone has ever produced. it has 3 speakers for that purpose. moreover all the sony mobiles have clear sound from their external speakers, infact external speakers from motorola mobiles has some bass element to it. the best for motorola for sound through external speakers is no doubt E398 and rokr E1. as a matter of fact i can even say that E1 and E398 have one of the best external speakers ever produced. one more advantage of E398 and E1 is that both are very moddable and its actually possible to increase its output through external speakers as i have done to my E398. E398 and rokr E1 will beat W550 but i seriously doubt whether E2 can do it. if at all it can, i will be very happy. @ all my indian friends does anybody has any news about its launch in india. all i hear from motorola is about its postponement.

  • For sijusid..... MAn if u have rokr e2 then y dont u know if it runs symbian applications or not? MOst people here dont have rokr E2 including me.So they are just guessing like i think w550 is not better than E2 considering speaker sound or.... k750 i think has better flash..... all read the reviews and previews on some sites and say i think its like this ...and that.........And those who have Rokr E2 may be are too dumb to explore it and tell other what are the features..... :-)

  • For sijusid..... MAn if u have rokr e2 then y dont u know if it runs symbian applications or not?

  • i dont think w550 beats this phone in terms of speakers.......... dont see the loudness check quality ok thx

  • hello friends i want to know about the loud speakers of this cell.Is it got 1 speakers of 3 speakers hows its sound thorugh loud speakers is it loud and stereo or just normal or low sound??

  • sijusid... Thanks for your quick input! I went ahead and ordered one on EBAY. Can't wait to get it.

  • hey i dont think that e1 and k750i have same sound i think k750i has crispy sound while rokr has better and clear sound .......... i got blue tooth and wire hands free with my phone in terms of sound e2 is very better than k750i

  • @surge yes it has the option. @Khurram W550 will easily beat 3250 and rokr e2 in terms of sound through external speakers. also k750 has 2 flash lights and e2 has one so i presume k750 flash will be more although i am not sure. @farbwn 1. through speakers both are equivalent. 2.E2 cannot play animations as wallpapers as sony mobiles can do. 3. yes, we can use speaker system with E2 with its 3.5mm standard jack. we can directly connect to our computer speakers, but it will drain battery more. 4. not sure 5. main advantage of linux is that it is stable with least crash and least bugs. motorola has released the source code for their phone softwares which will enable third party programmers to create suitable programmes.

  • Hello to all! I would like to know if the phone will automatically update the clock when travelling through different time zones. I realize most people wouldn't care about this, but I travel a lot and this feature is a must have. My service provider (Cingular) has this feature enabled in the network... I just need a phone that will do it. Thanks!

For Those who read bible.If anyone has read the complete bible then he or she should know that in bible there is indication of last prophet.And afer bible there is a sacred book THE QURAN which is more authentic.And it is the only book known to mankind which has not been changed not even a single word for the last 14 hundred years.In this book The Quran there is Also much about bible.To all people who want to know what life is and why we r here i recommend this book.Everyone should read it atleast once.in the book (Allah) is used for GOd. check this website

  • Black ROKR rox ma sox

  • I am agreeing with faran. Motorola is releasing a brilliant phone and nobody knows about it. What happend to marketing? Go on the Motorola webside and what do we see, Pebl's in different colours not even a soon coming note for the Rokr E2. When is it actually to be released in the UK ??? When will it be available with o2??

  • Hey jonah I'm just using my phone's web browser with an HTML bible. Each of the chapters has links to an index page, so it's easy to browse. Just open the 'index.html' page in the phone's file manager. You can download bibles from here in many languages: Many thanks to Jon Hunt for his site and free bibles.

  • hye i m really very happy with my fone and luckily i hv got blk version camrera is i think fine and ............................................... love it

  • I have been Moto comments for a while on this forum. What is with you people ? Ca you not be civil over a phone ? Honestly. It's really bad !

  • Hey roger, what software are you using for reading bible in mobile? Java Bible?? Pls reply! Tks!:-)

  • The camera is not horrible. It's not super but it's ok.

  • dude its not that horrible.. i hav one now. Bought the unlocked version in HK. Sound is brilliant and the transfer speed is so FAst dude! Dont believe it, juz try it. If u havent used that phone, dont complain so much

  • you forgot horrible camera in cons

  • OK, let me say it again. I actually have this phone (in Taiwan). After using it for about a month, here's what I have to say... Good points: Fantastic display (best I've seen). I've got a hundred or so photos on my phone and when I play back a slide show, they look amazing! Excellent sound quality (Think MP3 player, not phone) Good OS with multitasking. Good file manager and browser. Great calendar Surprisingly good battery life. SD card Mini USB for charging or connecting to a computer. Looks great with all the lights on (black version) System wide audio control keys (pause, next and previous) work in all circumstances. Good FM tuner with up to 27 stations in three preset folders. I have the entire bible on my phone (1000+ html files), and I can read it while listening to music. Pretty impressive in my opinion. Bad points: Text entry isn't optimal due to: Small keys Annoying dictionary that sometimes remembers a word and sometimes doesn't. Slow text entry and prediction. For some reason, one of my ripped CDs causes the phone to slow down to an almost lock up. Only one album. *********************** By the way, to the guy or girl who wants my firmware... I can't access the firmware version and I'm not sure how to do a firmware dump. If someone tells me how, I'll do it.

  • moto have the best out of sony or nokia mrinal

  • Motorola doesn't have the proper marketing.I mean wheres moto rokr E2.PEOPLE DONT even know if it is in the market or not.It has been only released in few countries.And why cant they make it a bit rectangular.Most moto's are like eggs..........A question for moto user can it play animation(.gif) like sony ericsson as wallpaper.

  • hello friends i just want to know which phone have loud sound quality through loud speakers MOTOROKER E2........NIKIA6230........SEK750 PLZZ GUIDE ME

  • . plz read it. It shows what NOKIA acually is in. People rated it high only when the knew the brand name other wise every where MOTO came ahead of it and few times SE came in front of MOTO. SO plz accept tha fact and don't post nonsense comments.

  • How ius the sender i don't know (as the name is not given). But thanks U for giving the link. After reading it, the moto Rokr e2 hater will know why i praise E2 (But if they want to accept it). But i can assure it that that review just don't jusity the E2 fully. I m not saying u people to buy it but if u can go to a shop who give phones to c it in real before buy & test it and c why i praise it. its really a fine phone then it actally looks in photo. The black colour rocks. If U can read this page (http://www.mobile-review.com/review/music-phone­s-en.shtml ) If U want to accpet e2's capability U will know why i praised it. Thanks 2 all.

  • It's always so disapointing to see people getting so heated about new/old phones. What a waste of time to come to such a great site like GSMarena and ruin helpful forums by talking about why or why not your phone of choice is better. Everyone will undoubtedly have a different preference for what they want in phones, and some will inevitably be more educated on these matters than others, but thats what these forums are for, to ask questions and discuss how great these phones are, not how bad others are. Anyway, I am an avid SE user for their wonderful cameras (k750/w800/w810/w900/k800/etc) and music capability. I love samsungs for their constant shape, size, and form innovation (e900/x820/d900/z710). I have always appreciated and admired nokia's symbian os because it really is amazing. In my opinion, motorola has been somewhat lacking in recent years in the phone market, and I think many will agree. The last moto I owned was the e398, which remains one of the best music phones of all time, and since then, I have not seen anything quite as quality and user friendly...until the ROKR E2. I didn't quite recognize everything that went into this phone until I read this review: Mobile-review.com is WELL known for its comprehensive phone reviews and forums, so check it out. Read the whole thing if you have time, because it sheds much light on what this phone really has to offer, not just what people in THIS forum think it does. Hopefully one day we'll all realize that the technology we currently have at our disposal is truly amazing, and should be celebrated no matter who is the manufacturer. If you disagree, start your own company, produce a few phones, start a forum, and let everyone tear YOUR products apart on it. :-)

  • Hey Neel how much did this phone costed u ?

  • Well after seeing all resp.i am still not able 2 make out if e2 has better sound quality than se(w550).anyone?

  • to haider u said u bot it for 260us dollars i wud like 2 kno frm whr n wat bout d warranty is it valid worldwide

  • The os has been refreshed in many things and its not the pervious linux os that everyone knows. So plz don't pass comments before using the new OS of E2.I m not talikng about old software & Hard ware but E2 has many new thngs, but the menatality of many has that they pass comments on old things they know so plz check e2 then pass comments.

  • Its funny to say that SE display is better then Sharp's display (E2 has sharp's Display).I m sorry coz i m very new user of phone & haven't seen any colour phone till date. & u r right that JUIX suck. The SE is better coz U can't install a single game in it (i have W550)& other applications. I never said that E2 has better camera. Did I? Anyways Sorry Guys I m just a new phone user.

  • i tried tis phone tis afternoon i can say tat it is better than E680 tat im using rite now 1. Screen display better. Although it is smaller than E680, but the display is very "real"!! When i just switch on the phone i thought the display of the phone is fake that like the display phone did!! 2. The sound is better. This is common because E2 use 3.5mm headset, thats cool! 3. The camera is quite ok, although cannot fight with SE, but i think it is enough for those people who want to take picture for fun only now worth RM1399 in Malaysia cannot afford by a student like me!!

  • Wow Very Impressive Phone i am now planning to buy rokr e1... but when i see it here in gsmarena i am so impressed before anything else may i know this price here in our country (philippines) the price of e1 and also e1 astig toh!!!

  • SE has quietly copy Moto's "circle" design for navigation and incorporate into their latest phone. Their "joystick" navigation will wore out within 1 year and you have to changed or sent the phone in for repair. Such bad built-quality is not acceptable to me at all. I'll rather have a VGA camera phone than having phones with many problems. No bulit quality

  • The Price of E2 in Malaysia : RM 1399

  • comeon everybody. lets stop this comparison. it makes no sense. everybody is loyal to some brand or another. i am more inclined towards motorola , sham towards nokia and so on. so its only natural that one will see fault in every other mobile including me. theres nothing wrong to it. lets talk about E2 here rather than starting comparison.this thread is about E2. no phone is ultimate and perfect and so these comparison will never end. selection of a phone should be done on the basis of how much a particular phone will satisfy our needs in its price, be it nokia, sony, samsung or motorola.

  • to " Neel" dont post nonsense without knowing the facts? The O.s of this fone is liniux= it sux! yes the display is better, but the camera is .7 mp less which makes a very big difference. ssecondly, a SE display with less pixel is better then any motorola because their displays are washed up and very poor. do not compare them. i like nokia, but the SE is WAY better then the ROKR E2- no itunes even! common man:) dont post garbage without knowing the facts:)

  • Thanx Haider for the answering my querry. That se810i is a weak phone. Too expensive. loaded with tech that at best can be called state of the art if it were 2004. Feel so sorry for those who bought it.

  • this phone has great sound quality and also best display ..but linux is the worst operating system in the world .. and dont you think why none of motorola linux phones sucess in the market ..because they stick with linux ...symbian is simple and easy to use ..but i've used so many phones before and i would prefer N73 because of it's the best stereo speaker of all phone and big quality screen. besides you got symbian and user friendly interface ..nokia will dominance mobile market for long time mate :P

  • E2 Rokr and SE W850i should be the best to be compared.. not W810i coz it can be consider old model already.. both more to music functions and not camera coz no auto focus for W850i too.. (",) * Both got A2DP bluetooth support. * SE W850i come with 1GB(high speed pro duo) * Both design is Outstanding. COME LET'S COMPARED THIS TWO FONES.

  • R u mad that u r compairing E2 with W810. Its really insult to E2. E2 has display of Sharp.Do i really need 2 say about it anyomre. Sharp display is ages advange in technology and quality then any other company in this world.E2 uses Juix.And as per review its best OS for a phone ever this world has seen. Don't ask about media player it has 12 equilizer setting & spatial. Not a cheap stereo widening that SE & Nokia uses. Don't think i hated SE.I have w550. But when i compaierd w810 of my friend with E2 side by side. I m saying that 100 out of 100 times i will go for E2. Even my friend who was a SE fan praised Moto E2 & think of buying it. The only strong point of w810is its camera. Some r saying E2 has not a good design . But once U c it in real and feel it in hand u will love it. Plz don't spread nonsense comments about E2 without knowing the fact. MOTO E2 rocks.

  • Any 1 knows the prise of this fone in US dollars? I might just close my bank account just to get this DJ fone

  • wow this mobile looks really cool. An item to have on the move..... Is it really true that motorolla bought over sendo x and upgraded it to this beautiful bride? cos I'll love to go 4 it.

  • man,.. please stop this nonsense fight of phones,.. W810 and E2 are both music phones meant for music lovers, if you love Moto then go for E2 and if SE, go to Walkmans,.. both phones are great, and i will not compare it to nokia, coz for my own point of view... they are so desperate in making N-seires all in one phones... i saw N95 or N83 in a site. know what,.. (Nokia's being so desperated in making battle against all phones of SE, SAMSUNG, MOTOROLA and others... thinking that they are the king of all manufacturers but they suck so much because they insist using symbian OS S60 in their phones.. i dont think s60 can handle so much functions in a particular time... UIQ,PocketPC,Windows Smartphone,And Linux(one of the best performing OS) is far better than s60..)

  • sorry i missed out one thing. W810 has better camera than E2.

  • Does anyone know if this phone will be released in a 850mhz version?

  • the only thing which W810 has better than E2 is the looks and the presence of edge. for all other features E2 is better. 1. screen quality of E2 is 100 times better than W810. 2. E2 supports stereo bluetooth which W810 dosent. 3. E2 has linux O.S which is more stable than W810. 4. cheaper memory card. 5. 30 mb internal memory as compared to 20 mb of W810. 6. better phonebook and calender. if W810 would have been better than E2, i would have bought it long back and would not have waited for E2.

  • this fone is really cooler than w810i w810i has poor OS hihiuhihihihihihihihh i hate that............... haider u r rite

  • to mehboob ali HEY WHO R U w810 WHAT THE IDIOT FONE MOTO DISPLAY IS 100 TIMES PWOERFULL THAN ALL FONES PRESENT IN MARKET U R TALKIN ABOUT W810I I THINK W810i'S DISPLAY IS EVEN POOR THAN E398.................... I COMPARED E2 DISPLAY WITH W550, K750I AND SE WAS A CHICK AT ALL U GOT IT....................... the ramaining features except cam are very batter than sony ok mind it..............does sony has 3.5 mm jack which is i think recommended for a mp3 fone............................................­............... blue tooth of SE is weaker.............. sound effectss hahaha SE has no special sound effects....................... se doesnt have 3D no fone with 3d from sony.............video recording of sony is poooooor i dont say that se is bad ...............w810i haha i like that but e2 is better than w810 in all features except camera..................... the pathtic joy stick of sE huhh....................... I THINK ITS ENOUGH

  • hyeee the fone sounf is simmilar to e398 which is great but it is much louder than e1 and e398 e398 has clear sound.... audio modes are present which boosts volume and quality videos are coool full screen 3d is present sound is clear software is a bit difficult thats all please rate this fone 10 out of 10

  • ROKR E2 it is said to be the best "music phone" on the market. It beats the walkman phones of SE: W810i W900 etc. and with the headphones on it is better than some mp3 players. Well done Motorola, it was about time!

  • So Haider How does the sound o/p campare with Moto E398 and nokia 6131. Specifically sound quality and volume

  • Hey Haider yaar i m also from pakistan lahore i wanna buy this mobile can u tell me how much did u pay for that amazing phone n hows da camera n video i know its louder n better as mentioned in mobile-review review of mp3 handsets rokr rocks 1) comes rokr e2 then w 300 then w810 mentioned in mobile-reveiw they tested it with machine so rokr e2 winssssss yahoo i m goonna buy it plzz. how much rupees did yuo buy that.Thanks n one more thing its display is the best if u dont belieive check it out on mobile-review review of mp3 handset its better than d600 n n90 n w900.it got 3 speakers.how much tell me plz.plz.plz

  • Dear Haider, Congrats that you bought this set from karachi. But you can't even think to compare this phone with SE W810i, first Moto has to compete with Samsung then it will face SE and Nokia respectively. W810i is the current masterpiece from SE and this phone is nothing when compared to it.

  • Hi Sijusid Do you have any confirmation when Motorola Q,A1200 and Rokr E2 will be available in Mumbai.There is only 1 PDA i.e A780 available in India. Rgds Mahesh

  • hi. to those who oledi bought the fon, can i know whether ringtone can now be stored in SD card? Old e398 need to store them in the fon main memory to be used...

  • @haider is the phone officially launched there. is it true that the sound quality is similar to e398. doesnt the bass boost and spatial audio settings improve the sound quality and moreover how is the bass effects of this phone in comparison to walkman phones. have you tried plugging the sony earphones which comes with walkman phones. i am asking all this because iam currently using E398. please haider answer this, i am desperate to know this. u can also mail me

  • @haider, congrats haider, now your another one with the phone. well don't leave the forum. Can you tell me what's missing and what's not according to the review in mobile-review website, as the review is really cathing, I want your personal evaluation, plz, try the features stated there..waiting for your answer bye... and good luck with the phone

  • i got it from karachi PAKISTAN well the display is very nice and i think i have a cooler device than w810i but there is still the problem that the fone has similar sound like e1, e398 but it is louder than e1 and even louder than w300i full screen videos are supported OS is fine as i m using 1st time linux its a bit diificult but this is fine..................OS can handle most of the symbian softwares which attracted me blue tooth of e1 is same like e2 only the difference is attaching a device..................................... the mobile comes with a nvidia graphical application with JAVA for better game graphics..

  • Sorry its 2 late 2 launch

  • seeking info on the O.S

  • ugly looking phone

  • Its available now. HAHA

  • @haider from where did u got it... which country friend.

  • heyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy the phone released hahahahhahahaahhahaaa i got it got it in 260 us dollars i am relly very happy i love it ............................

  • I think this phone deserves waiting

  • This phone keeps delaying its launched date. I think it got problems with the software. I have decided to wait till 1st quarter 2007 before getting the phone. I hope most problems will be soved by then. What a letdown, tired of waiting!

  • @roger, i'm researching now how to do the firmware dump. for the meantime can you check what firmware version you have? go to settings, phone settings, properties. mine has these values: AP S/W Version: R564_G_12.01.29P BP S/W Version: R564_G_12.01.29P @anonymous, typing sms message does slow down if the message gets longer. itap response is also a bit slow for me, but the response is constant and does not slow down even more as the message gets longer.

  • Does the itap lag the more words u type(like in v3x)

  • Thanks rokrberry. I'll play with those effects in camera. I have no idea how to access the firmware. Could you tell me?

  • i believe that this phone is released but motorola releases its phones first in europe chaina well.................. can any body tell me that the e2 has itunes inside .............or moto's own media player in .......................... well welldone moto ilove e2

  • It's 600 on ebay

  • @unknown go to a shop, test it, if u like it buy it else leave it

  • can any body tell me shall i buy it or not

  • @haider i dont know why you are so sure that rokr e2 is not launched. maybe you dont follow motorola phones much. if you want the proof follow the link if you are still not convinced then i am sorry no one can make you understand. infact in one of your post you mentioned its going to launch on 27 august. ( i presume u are telling aout its launch in pakistan). now if you say that the phone is going to launch first in european countries and then in asian countries then rest assure that the phone which you will be buying wont be motorola either. @roger rokrberry needs your file badly........

  • @roger, wow you got an unbranded phone. what is your firmware version? can you extract/dump the phone's firmware? this firmware is what we are looking for, for E2 owners like me with a china mobile branded unit. btw, the camera has different effects during shooting mode. just press the joystick up or down to toggle between scene, zoom, styles, and borders. scene - auto, night, manual borders - time/date stamp, other chinese borders that i can't read, very colorful styles - color, b&w, antique, negative, reddish, greenish, bluish zoom - x1, x2, x4, x8

  • It really cannot rewind video? Hmm :/ But still I want it :)

  • a new news that e2 rokr has three speakers 2 of them are stereo and third one is an amplifier............................ if you people have really bought the fone then why donot you people talk about sound or speakers of fone i dont think that this fone is released any where in world and thats a bet how can u say this.......................... dont mind but i need proof................................ well i think this fone will release first in EUROPE then ASIA , AFRICA AND THEN ALL OTHER PLACES .................... SORRY TO ALL IF I AM WRONG iff this fone is released any where thats not motorola ok bbye haider [email protected] 00923044248236

  • @roger thank you very much. i got all my querries cleared. now i am just waiting for this mobile to hit the market. i am going to buy it for sure. thanks once again.

  • will release aug ..? what r u guys talking about? im here on my business trip in China, and its selling everywhere unlocked, even from official Motorola stores.....and its been out since near Mid July.... 2200 RMB almost $300.00 USD.

  • Here's full info about the EQ and spatial audio. The EQ has 10 modes. They are Off Bass Boost Classical Techno Hip Hop/Rap Oldies Pop R&B/Soul Rock Treble Boost Vocal Boost There's a separate menu for 'Stereo Effect Settings' The items on the menu are Spatial Audio (on/off) Spatial Width control (1-7) Bass Boost (on/off) Bass Boost Level (1-7) Any more questions??

  • @roger thanks once again but i have some querries and hope to get it cleared from you. looking at your answers it seems spatial audio is present as separate option but bass boost option is included in equalizer settings. is it true or bass boost is also present separately as mentioned in review( review given at www.mobile-review.com). and finally are there 7 levels of spatial audio and bass boost setting present which is also mentioned in the review or its just on or off. the reason i am asking you is that when i read its review the separate bass boost & spatial audio settings and 12 equalizer option were the things which attracted me the most considering the musical capabilities of the phone.

  • @roger thankyou very much for your answers. i really apprecite it. i have made up my mind. i will be buying this phone as soon as it hits the market in india. only problem can be the price. any way thanks again.

  • Hi Again. Sorry, I didn't see your previous questions. OK, I did a listening test the other night and I can't tell the difference between my iPod photo and the phone. Really the sound is very good. I appears that you cannot fast forward or rewind videos, only play. Also my version doesn't seem to support adding the video file to the caller ID, although I might have missed this function. Max video res is 176x144. The video isn't great, to be honest. The phone is branded as Motorola, front and back. Spatial audio works well and there are 10 EQ modes including bass and treble boost. The camera's flash is pretty bright by the way. I haven't listened to other walkman phones, but if it sounds as good as an iPod, then it's good enough for me. The output is pretty high and it has an ability to output good bass sounds on small speakers. The camera can't apply effects itself, but yo u can add them later. You can add color tints, negative and sepia to any pictures on the phone. Gotta go, hope that helps.

  • Hi. I have one which I bought in Taiwan. The music player is excellent, and the radio reception is very good too. You can multitask with both the mp3 player and radio, meaning you can use the full phone functionality while listening. The screen is fantastic and the calendar and contacts information is great too. Battery life is not bad, but if you use the screen a lot it will be a little short. The text entry has a few weird quirks which are a little irritating but not too serious and the mp3 player has locked up on one or two songs before. However I'd say this is an excellent deal. This phone cost me NT$8000 which is about US$244. A good deal considering the price and features of the competing 'music phones'. For more info you guys should read the review at Hope that helps some people. By the way, expect the handset soon in Asia, because it has JUST been released in Taiwan.

  • @nishant yes i am from india (mumbai). i think we had talked in motomodders forum before regarding ur mobile upgrade. i think u currently own moto E398 like me. @roger dear friend, we all are waiting for your answers. hope you will answer them all soon.

  • The phone doesn't even compare to the motorazr maxx.

  • @Haider, Thanks haider for your update, well calling you is not possible for me right now, (as it's had to be an outside country call, nd it's too much here), well I think you can send me your review. I hope that'll come in real handy. thanks and bye

  • @haider i think u are telling about its release in pakistan. please correct me if you are wrong since you have not mentioned the country

  • its the best fone of world will release on 27 aug

  • hye the phone is able to play full screen videos and videos can be applied as ring tones i m waiting for this fone if u want any info about this fone call me at +923044248236

  • @ Roger Congrats, for having the phone. What's the price in taiwan. Well I`ve a few question too, which I asked b4 but got no answer, 1. Can you use video file as a user caller id? 2. what is the highest resolution for capturing video? 3. Does it has camera effect like negative, sepia etc? thanks,

  • @roger congratulations and thanks for ur review. i have few questions for u. if u would answer it many doubts on my mind and many other peoples mind will be cleared. please please answer it 1. is ur phone branded with any mobile company. 2. does ur phone has spatial audio and bass boost settings. 3. how many equalizer settings.if u can list it it will be great. 4. can u compare its sound quality with respect to any walkman mobile phones like the bass effects. 5. can we fast forward and rewind videos during playback. i know i am asking too much question but if u could answer this question many of us could make up their mind , whether to go for this phone or not.

  • Just bought this phone in Taiwan. It's really excellent and works very well. The sound quality is surprisingly good, actually I'd venture to say it beats my iPod by a fair margin. The screen is the best I've seen on any phone, and I've seen quite a few, including those by NEC and sharp. The organiser is fantastic and the speed and processor allows multitaking quite well.

  • thanx sijusid, just wondering u r from India? and doe E2 have 2 or more spkrs?

  • @nishant the availability may extend by one or two weeks as is the case with launch of new phones but i am not 100% sure about the price but there wont be much difference from the expected price. lets keep our fingers crossed and hope for the best. @phoenix after buying this phone i will surely give my opinions about it. just to be offtopic i want to tell that along with rokr e2 , motorola is also releasing a1200 and v3i gold.

  • Hey sijusid, thanx 4 the info abt release in India. is the release and price conferm? and does E2 has stereo Spkrs. regards, Nishant (Bhopal M.P.)

  • Hi Sijusid, All dealers give different information on expected date of release and expected price. Do send me your review and experience about 15 days after you buy this phone. I will be waiting for about a month after its release so that I can buy a 1 gig SD card in the price difference, hopefully -:) My mail id is [email protected] Regards, Phoenix

  • @darklord i am not sure about the english version available in china. fayte said that he has a phone which is unbranded and unlocked and has all the features mentioned in the review(just see the post by fayte on 11 of this month ). one of my friend had went to china and i had told him to get it for me but after knowing that it is branded and also i was not sure about the english version , i told him not to bring it. moreover i got the news about its launch in india next week. so i will buy it here. it will be surely cheaper in china (about 4000 to 5000 Rs cheaper). now its your choice to get it from china or india. the branded mobile which comes in china is missing with spatial audio abd bass boost settings and also fewer equalizer setting. moreover there is only one theme present.

  • 6-8 months down the road Sony K800 will get cheaper and there is no reason to own this phone anymore in terms of design and fuctions.

  • no I`m from Bangladesh, as it'll come late here, so I may collect it from India or China, that's why i was not sure. But can u tell me, that the English edition available in China, is it fully featured as reviewed, or it's like the Chinese brand.

  • @hyder the phone released in china is not illegal. there are two variants available. one is the chinese version which is branded with china mobile and other is the english version which is not branded with any mobile company. @darklord. are u an indian. cause i dont know a single GSM phone which is branded with any mobile except some cheap mobile whose cost is less than 2000.i will be happy if u or anybody else can throw some light on this.

  • hye u ppl r aghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh this phone released in china really but i think that is a illegal version only if that is a legal version then thats its final that e1 will not have i tunes fine bye

  • Waiting for another six months? :( Hmmm, I'll wait for SE Z710i and I'll see then what will be better - price, availability...

  • @phoenix you r welcome. i know many indians are badly waiting for this phone to be released. but the only dampning point is its price which is a bit high. i had expected its price close to Rs 16000. anyway i am going to get this phone soon after its release.

  • Hey Sijusid, Thanks a lot for the update. That really lifted my spirits even though the price as you said is a bit high. Maybe will wait for a few days for the price to come down a bit lower and then buy it. Thanks again.

  • Hi to all, yeah, I`m sure you all waited a long just like me, and if moto fails to deliver it time, then it'll be a bad thing. Well I have few more question to rokrberry or any one who can answer, 1. Does it suuport video call (meaning playing video for an incoming call like nokia)? 2. How is it's MP3 player? 3. Will it come as a branded phone in India?

  • Why is it a joke? Considering the fact that we're in the month of July and this phone has not been launched in Asia. If it's launch in August-December in Asia Pacifc then it'll be 2007 in Europe and USA

  • I hope this was a joke... :( If not, I think I will have to buy other phone, I was waiting very long time and I don't think I will stand waiting longer.

  • for all indian rokr e2 fans it will be available for sale from 1st week of august. package includes 512mb card and data cable. but it will be available at Rs17000 to Rs19000

  • Hye Haider r u sure that it'll b released on 7 sep. in pakistan, frm where did u got that info man. Mobile zone r really gona bring this fone, what abt united mobiles man, i hav heard that united r sellin fones 4 cheaper prices than mobile zone.

  • This phone will be released in US and Europe Q1 of 2007. And Q4 in Asia Pacific. Moto is late as usual, just can't trust their announcement

  • there is an good news and bad news for all rokr e2 fans in india. first the bad news..... the expected price of rokr e2 is Rs 17000 to Rs 19000. (personally i think its bit high when in china its available for Rs 14000) now for the good news.... rokr e2 is going to launch in india on 27 of this month. so max by first week of august our wait for rokr e2 would be over. (the standard package includes 512 mb card with data cable along with the handset which is not available in china). now i am a person who has waited for this mobile from february and i am defenitely going to buy this mobile in its first week of launch inspite of it being a bit expensive.

  • is the rokr e2 going to be like another E1120? announced but never released? when motorola manage to make a wonderful phone it seems to hav so many difficulties to be released!!!!

  • This handset is really cool, it has quite a lot of features enable in this phone. I have a friend who has it and I would recommend it to anyone.

  • hye the fone will be released on 7 sept in pakistan by mobile zone but in asian market it will arrive on the last week of august and in america this fonme will available after release in asia because the moto fones are 1st released in asia and europe and then affrica (middle east) and sum other countries.. and thenm in america.............................. may be u will have to wait for 2 weeks

  • I do not understand what's that fight against iTunes. We have modded iTunes versions with integrated database updaters, ishell, sms alarm, media viewer, SKINS MANAGER (for iTunes) and system file manager integrated... Check here

  • @fayte thanks for your information. so it means u have bought it from china which is an english and unbranded version. one of my friend has went to china and will be returning in a week. now i am really interested in getting it from him. thanks a lot

  • I do not live in china but there will be an english and chinese version and also a branded and non branded version. And i use the english non-branded version. PS: It is a great phone much better then Rokr E1 or E398 it is much faster.

  • @fayte are u also from china and if yes is ur mobile branded with china mobile. also u mean to say that there are two versions of rokre2 available. one is chinese version branded with cina mobile and another is english version which is not branded with any mobile. what about your hanset. is it chinese version or english version and is it branded.

  • ok look the spatial audio and bass boost are not missing from this phone. the inscribed language on the keypad will depend if the vendor is either buy the china version or the english version. as for the sound quality it is the best in its type. and as for equalizer i remember it being 10 band (or some number being higher than 5 maybe 8).

  • i think these things like Wma support and advanced equalizer settings are simply locked by chinese operator. thats one E2 on mobile-review has this settings. rokrberry i read it can play mp3 about 10 hours via a2dp.. is it true? i also cannot realize if it produse better sound with any 3.5mm-plug earphones or with a2dp h/s..?

  • @fayte can you please confirm whether the spatial audio and bass boost option is missing in rokr. also is the language inscribed in keypad english or chinese. is rokr still branded with china mobile or other version is also possible. what is your opinion about its sound quality in comparison with walkman phones.

  • @rokrberry @fayte doess the manual which comes with this mobile only in chinese language or english is also present

  • @fayte are u also from china. can u also please confirm that Spatial audio and bass boost is missing in E2. also are there only 5 equalizer settings. thanks in advance

  • srry not 224hour on the rokr e2 but only 24 hours

  • ok look i have at the review of this phone. it does have stereo, but aren't as good as E398 but are the best in it type. the Dimensions are some wut wrong then width of the phone is not 50mm but only 46mm. the battery is the best in its kind it was taken walkin through the city and lasted for 224 hours while Nokia 3250 last 10.5 hours, but while in flight mode rokr e2 last 27 hours while nokia 3250 only 12 hours They LCD display of the Rokr e2 is made by sharp

  • hye yes i also think that moto media player will be better than iTunes well this phone will cost only 240-270 US dollars thats less i will get this love it

  • @Nick, no 3d sound. not sure if the speakers are stereo but they sound ok, E398 speakers are better though. china version has no itunes. @ximuoi, i tried loading a WMA file, it was recognized as a music file but would not play. not sure which WMA encoding is ok for the phone. @dalai lama, can't comment on battery life yet, i wasn't keeping track, and i always play music via a2dp/stereo bt headset so battery consumption is higher.

  • i'd prefer 2nd variant with moto player which already works.. itunes is just a waste of money and time (like it was on E1).. if this crap will be present in that phone, it will cost 100$ more! DO NOT PUT "itunes" INTO THIS PHONE, MOTO! rokrberry, your e2 still works nice? havent you tested how many hours it works when only listenin to music (primarily fully charged)? let me know pls :)

  • hey, i want it too! its not for sale yet in the US? as someone said a couple of post be4. it is on china, so i wish it get to the resto of the world fast. im from argentina too. thx

  • Yes, it can play WMA. but its still not released yet. i hope its fate wont be like the E1120

  • hye i know what are the functional problems with e2 rokr apple itune is not compltely compatible with linux based OS as its prepared in linux format but it donot works with the buttons presnt on phone (Musik keys) there are 3 media players in fone 1: that of moto 2: specially designed by moto ... which allows bluetooth control too.and music buttons work with that only. 3:iTune motorola has agreement with apple and now moto has prepared its own media player too this is simply due to blue tooth control an now moto donot want iTunes as it is not like moto's own media player now there remain 2 facts * This product will be cancelled * or this product will be released with other name... otherwise moto will have to cancel the moto mediaplayer control with phones side music keys and link them with iTunes thats all.

  • Could anyone tell me if E2 can play WMA? i just see that it plays MP3 and AAC, no more. And i have no chance to find out until it'll be released here, Viet Nam! so please help, it gives me some times to think about buying one. Thanks

  • hi, can u tell me is the sound quality of E2 better than E398. thanx

  • already launch in china for more details go to

  • If i dont have this phone in one or two months i will die!!!! I NEED IT!!!! I live in Argentina and i was saving money to buy the phone and now that i have the money but i dont have the phone the money its burning my hands!!!! i think SE 810 its not better than the rokr e2 but its here and i thinking...

  • Does this phone have 3d sound / stereo speakers?

  • ah yes you can create a shortcut, but it is still 3 clicks away from the shortcut to turn it on/off :-P

  • rokrberry, cant u use cre8 shortcut of bluetooth in ur mainscreen? i think its possible huh.

  • @d4wnz, sound quality is very good, similar to sony ericsson w550c but less bass and lower max volume. UI is ok, not that much different from the razr UI but the icons now look far better. some features though like turning on bluetooth are buried deep in menus which is a pain to access.

  • haider, you're lucky one if you have an uncle working in motorola! dont your uncle said what exactly "problems" has this phone?.. tu)

  • rokrberry, hows the sound quality? Up to par? and hows the UI like? USer friendly? better than the razr UI?

  • hello this phone will have less price than w300i thats amazing............................ 1.3 mp cam 3 superb speakers i am amazed the fone has the louder speaker than e1 e1 has an excllent sound quality that is even superior than walkman series........ thats truth but that is not loud like them but thats perfect as that has half price than a walkman this phone is very very better than walkman series............................. SD the cheapest memmory card while SE uses stupid priecy memmory card. i dont like that..................... this phone is really very attractive and not bulky like nokia hahahhahaha i mean not like n90 or n91 hihihi they are bricks and u will be tired when u will hold them in ur hand for 10 mins and when will u call they will be in ur mouth hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaa thats funny and nor its like w900i...........................................­.the stupid brick fone...........but thats crazy phone i like that toooooo but thats sooooo huge well i will wait for this fone and continue using my e1 and k750 simply

  • @DarkLord, * If it can show image or play video in fullscreen? >>>yes. for video there is slideshow and it will play it full screen sideways *Install games or software directly in memory card? >>>yes. it will ask you where to install the java pgm (phone or memory card). after install it becomes an icon in main menu. similar to symbian OS. *Does it support Animated wallpaper? >>>sadly, no. gif wallpaper does not animate, only on screensaver. * Can Images from memory card can be used as phonebook entry or sounds can be used from memorycard? >>>yes to both. *Does it support theme files from memory card? >>>haven't tried this yet since i could not find any theme file from the net. i do not know what format it is but it is not the same (i think) as the old moto themes. and the phone i have only has 1 theme (china mobile theme) which sucks.

  • There goes my hope, wait for another 2 more months.....man, why why why..... Well I would prefer to wait for a clean and stable mobile than the one available now. I have read the music comparision tooo and that made really crazy for this mobile. Well @rokrberry, can you say that * If it can show image or play video in fullscreen? *Install games or software directly in memory card? *Does it support Animated wallpaper? * Can Images from memory card can be used as phonebook entry or sounds can be used from memorycard? *Does it support theme files from memory card? Thnx..........

  • hye its haider here i called my uncle working in motorola europe he said this fone is a problem here so many functional problem here.......... it will be released in august last week or sept. 1st week

  • @rokrberry thanks for your answers. but please if u get any further news,please share it.

  • @siju, i could not find the spatial audio setting in the phone. the rokr e2 currently available here in china is branded with the local mobile phone operator (china mobile) software, i haven't seen a non branded rokr e2 yet. maybe when the phone is released in other countries it will have all the features mentioned in the phone reviews. i was also disappointed that those equalizer settings were left out. i am hoping that a firmware similar to the review will be available in the future so that i can just flash the phone with it.

  • @rokrberry as per the review, the spatial audio option was available in "streo effect settings" which is in setup below equalizer settings. and as per the equalizer settings given by you, it is way different from the settings mentioned in the review. none of this settings were mentioned in review. infact bass boost option was shown separate along with spatial audio option. i think motorola has tried to copy the settings which is available in walkman mobile phones. i am a bit dissapointed with this. the reason being, in the music mobile phone comparison, E2 came at top primarily for two reasons. different equalizer settings, spatial audio and bass boost option.without this i think the sound output wont be better than walkman. at the most it will be comparable as u already said. finally i didnt understood when u said it is an "china branded mobile". is there any more version of rokr e2 out there. can anyone else please confirm the absence of spatial audio and bass boost option.

  • @siju, yes there is no spatial audio setting in the phone that i bought (maybe because its china mobile branded?), or i haven't seen it yet, maybe buried in one of the menus, i'll take a look later since the phone is still charging. only these equalizer settings are available: -off -bass boost -rock -treble boost -vocal boost -vocal reducer

  • rokrberry one more thing. is bassboost option available. and the seven settings for bass settings available as said in the review. if it is present, does it make any significant changes

  • rokrberry are u sure friend that there is no spatial audio option available. and the 5 settings which u are talking about, is it about the equalizer setting. can u name it please.

  • they also sell the silver/white one in china but it does not look good to me so i chose the all black one. yup, camera is only 1.x megapixel. it looks great on the phone because of the display, but when you transfer the pic to the computer the greatness fades. :-P

  • god bless yo rokrberry!) a liitle questn else. have you got onli black ROKRers in China? or a silver/white too? i must say that motorola promised to release this ROKR E2 in septebmer in russia and also the official representative at motorola's main office in moscow assured peoples of presence of 2-mpx camera in commercial version of that fabulous phone :O and what we would get then?.. only stupit one and one/3rd mega-super-pupa pixels?! :`o well, it's beter then nothing... dont care.. crying..(((((

  • Ive been searching for a phone with good music capabilities and so far the rokr E1 is probably the best but this is maybe even better. So when does the rokr E2 release?

  • People that say this is better than SE Walkman phones are kidding themselves, People buy this model only because they can't afford SE Walkman!

  • ha! there is a phone setting to change the usb connection from modem to memory card. my bad. still have a lot to learn about the phone :)

  • 1. is moto logo in front blue or silver color (i saw a photo where it was blue (the phone was black) and this just looks like a sht) >>>moto logo is silver. i have the black version. maybe you saw the plastic cover on it which is colored blue. 2. what's camera abilities >>>flash (auto, on, off), timer (5secs, 10secs), multi shot (4/6/8 shots), resolutions (thumbnail 120x160, small 240x320, medium 480x640, large 1024x1280), quality (good, better, best) >>>video resolution (small 128x96, medium 176x144), video quality (good, better, best), video length (mms short, mms long, maximum) there's also a review time option for pictures (none, 2secs, 4secs, 6secs), shutter tone (boing, chimp, click, flix, quack) looks like no way to disable it, default name, storage location, autosave (enable/disable), and autosend. 3. is it slow to navigate threw menus >>>yes, moving around is slow, at least that is my impression, not a snappy response. 4. what joystick feels like? >>>joystick is ok/responsive, it looks/feels like the motorola c650 joystick. about yor problem i think maybe u just have to swtich connection to SD card like it was made on e398.. somwhere in settings? >>>how do you do this? when i connect the usb cable to the computer it sees the phone as a motorola usb modem. there is no prompt that shows up in the phone afterwards. i was able to find a driver for it, but i think it acts as a modem and not a mass storage device. i read in a rokr e2 review that the phone can also act as a mass storage device. i wonder how they did it.

  • rokrberry u're lucky dude. that's my questions: 1. is moto logo in front blue or silver color (i saw a photo where it was blue (the phone was black) and this just looks like a sht) 2. what's camera abilities 3. is it slow to navigate threw menus 4. what joystick feels like? about yor problem i think maybe u just have to swtich connection to SD card like it was made on e398.. somwhere in settings? tu wm

  • finally bought the phone here in china, rmb2298 or around usd280. came with wired headset, 128mb sd card, usb cable, but no data cd! my laptop can't recognize it as a mass storage device therefore i'm looking for the driver in the net, damn! phone software is kinda slow, and branded with china mobile which sucks. i don't see some features that i've read in the review like spatial audio and other equalizer settings (mine only has 5 settings). display is just gorgeous. audio output is great, comparable to the sony ericsson w550c which i had before. audio thru speakers is ok too. anyone has questions about the phone just ask away and i'll try my best to answer them.

  • Yeah, I agree that this phone is better than SE Walkman, just head over to www.mobile-review.com and they did a music phone comparision. In that this one is the top. By the way what is the price, some said 220$ where some said 250$. Can any one tell me the price in china

  • I expect that as a very advanced modding phone (like E398@ROKR). Compared to the mods of the previous releases (www.e398mod.com) I expect that one a killer, since it will have a very better hardware base :)

  • this is a great phone.. walkmans suck in comparison to this.. their sound just isnt good.. this on the other hand has waay good sound, i heard it from a friend who brought it down from china..

  • This phone is stupid-ugly it looks like a bar of soap or something, motorola suck these days

  • This is a pretty good phone,good features and all.But if moto doesn't release this phone soon and cancel e2 and e3 moto will only be known for making low end phones.

  • Coming soon, coming soon. Come here you **...

  • What's so great about iTunes? Any properly designed interface is as good as iTunes. In fact iTunes has got its disadvantages becasue it cannot create playlist on the phone itself. You need to connect the phone to a computer and create the playlist in iTunes Software. This is a stupid idea for a phone at this moment. Why? Phones has got very limited memory at the moment and the mp3 files can be easily mamaged manually or by the phone software.

  • does anyone know if the soft for e2 is ok? cause i`ve got an e398 without resofting ... and it`s lame :(

  • Hey, Isn't it time to come out. If it takes more time thanit'll be good only for music, cause it doesn't has a 2mp camera. But can you tell about it's support for itunes, it'll be bad if motorola drop this support

  • Dear ROKR E2, Will you ever, ever be availble? I had almost lost hope but the posts of Haider, Bohoo, PSdH etc give something to cheer about. Waiting Ardently, Phoenix

  • This phone is not slow, just find some review... But you are decided, as I see, that this phone is not good. Your fault.

  • Wow, the price is fine, I hope it will cost the same in Europe. Thanks fo information.

  • yes, its out $250net, a very nice phone and nice UI, saw it in CHina

  • its avaliable in china already !!!

  • hye its hyder here motorola is launching this phone in asia on 25 or 28th of this month its just like round k750 in hand cooool buddy superb 3 speakers iots first fone with 3d 3 speakers display is allover best.............................. even more than e series...... love e2 and want 2 see it in the top rated fones plz rate it 10 design is coolest....................................... size is not like n series camera is fine horizontal videos..................................... every thing in it makes it coool hit e1 sales in pakistan were not good about 1500 mobiles were sold only so its was a floop e1 was also superb as i used that for 2 months DISPLAY of e1 was far better than sony k750i,w550,w700i,w800i w810 nokia 3250 n80 n70 and many most expansive fones

  • no dali lama, it has no EDGE and a 1.3 mp camera, why not read the specifications hmm, well that seems a bit more normal wouldnt you agree.

  • answer plz who bought it in china, does it have EDGE and 2mp cam with autofocus?..

  • hey guys, this phone is had juz shipped in china, it isnt expensive, should be around $200-300with out any contract

  • this phone really take too long to release 1.3mp camera is weak n no EDGE maybe I'll just take N3250

  • You don't have to pay if you don't want, but it's worth much more. It's functions are perfect. I hope it won't be too expensive, I'm a poor student :) but 200$ is impossible.

  • ill pay 200$ for this.. no more and only for white one!

  • this is already showing up in a dealer link from the motorola china website, around RMB2900 with free HT820 bluetooth headset (around US$360). can't wait to get my hands on it.

  • I waiting, Waiting & waiting, when it will come I am great Fan of Motorola Mobiles.

  • Moto is taking way too long to release their phones. Especially as their phones don't offer strong enough features to keep people waiting. By the time they release them, their features are already outdated/too common (if they weren't already from the beginning.) The reason why RAZR, SLVR and PEBL are doing well is because of their physical design, despite their weak features. Moto (mainly the ROKR line) needs to step it up if it is to compete with the likes of other music phones (i.e. SE Walkman--which is doing better and better with its diverse line.)

  • The way it has been hyped up..it will have the same fate as of nokia N91..first few weeks, it will be over $1000. Whatsever it is..The design is simply UGLY. Why can't they just make a good looking phone with some good features? Why it has to be so egg-shaped?

  • Why are still coming soon?

  • It is supposed to come out mid 2006. It is mid 2006! Where are you E2?

  • Ashish: This phone is going to be availaible in INDIA after september at an estimated price of Rs.16500

  • I hope Motorola will implement unlimited JAVA multitasking in ROKR E2( purpose of JUIX, i hope). It will make the phone really superb device - JAVA smartphone

  • I agree. I think 1 MPx is enough and don't forget it has a flash! And the design - I like it.

  • This phone got LOTS of features! And i'd love to kick these dumb asses who say it dont! It seems to me that camera and design are the main features for a good phone nowadays...its stupid really...

  • Coming soon, coming soon...

  • Hi, This is Ashish from INDIA I am desperately waiting for this fone to be launched in INDIA, Unfortunately ROKR E1 was not launched that was also good fone however i read opinion in the site which made me bit concerened about ROkr E1. Can any one tell me when this will be launched in INDIA.

  • There should be both silver and black version.

  • i have a question.is it have only one color (silver)?i saw a black E2 .the black one was better.

  • this phone has the best music player quality of all phones, better than walkman in SE and far better than Nokia 3250, but other features are no match to nokia 3250 and the featre-racked walkman phones for cameraand other... hope that MOTOROLA will get rebound to compete with Nokia,SE,Samsung. but i'm in favor of SE.

  • this phone has an awful look and features, motorola dont release a good phone months ago i dont know what is the company strategy, make a fusion like benq and siemens did? maybe... i like motorola but i have to sadly admit SE and Nokia is kicking this moto-4ss maybe the company is only in bad hands.

  • if motorolla launched that phone a year ago it could be sell but now there is nothing for this ugly and featurless phone. come on motorolla think fast....

  • Yes, it's nice. I agree with you. I will buy it as it appears.

  • People hated the E1 and E398, but they didn't know that these phones are very very popular in Asian. Selling like hot cakes.

  • I don't know what they were thinking, but I think it's very nice!

  • ugly phone... what was motorolas designers thinking????

  • You don't need iTunes, it works as a USB Mass Storage, so you connect it to your PC and it will work as another drive.

  • i heard dad should use I-tunes for transfer MP3 to handset.. is dad true? should hv I-tunes evrytime huh.. too bad

  • this phone looks so disgusting, i wont even want it for free

  • the first cellphone was a BRICK motorola. they progressed but really they are a year behind in technology only 2, 2 mpx without autofocus phones, and not e sign of a 3mpx comming soon

  • Just've read a review, it's awesome!!! See:

  • I currently have the Rokr E1. It is a durable phone and this one is nice. It should be as durable. However, Motorola needs to improve the overall look of their phones as well as the camera resolution. I suggest that they try to improve the camera and make the phone more classy looking.

  • please release this phone quickly its about time

  • This phone looks great, but the camera is only 1,3MP versus 2MP of bulky and ugly brick 3250 and superb 2MP Auto Focus of SE W810. In this case you can choose excellent camera and player in W810, but ROKR E2 is better in sound quality. Is a pity but motorola is in 2004 in camera and technology

  • BTW, stop being so critical to moto! Don't you forget WHAT have been written on a world's FIRST cellphone! M O T O R O L A

  • Yo dont like it? Haha! Now try to imagine this: rokr've got a Pentium Xscale 208MHz processor(really!) and 48Mb of RAM(it seems to be true)! And it shold be also mentioned that its Linux-based OS named JUIX (java+linux) is really awesome and i can truly say it should be a revolutionary OS for non-smartphones cuz of havin plenty of different settings to personalize your phone (by tht way this stuff is called Chamelion interface). Its musical part /mp3 player i mean/ will be a walkman killer havin 12 eq settings 6 or 7 lines bass adjustment, song search etc and original Spatial Audio(r) technology to produce clear and realistic sound. And dont forget a 3.5 mm jack and hold button/not really a button but nevertheless HOLD/. What else can i say? Also it's expected to have 2mpix camera in a final version but in not sure really. You'd better visit and read everything on your own.

  • I'm so tired when waiting for Motorola realeasing this phone...hmmm... I LOVE products of MOTOROLA!!!
