Motorola SPICE Key XT317 - User Reviews

  • Your comment about Motorola SPICE Key XT317

  • I don't hate this phone, but sometimes it make fell me anger, when my messages are over 800+, I unlock the screen and got a lag and I have to wait a little bit or restart the phone... But I have it since 11/2012 and I don't have any biggest problem... Except the broken charger, but it's not a problem, I cannot expect much from this cheap phone.

  • download motorola software update , it will update your phone and both sim will work .

  • Okay nimi is it posible

  • the phone is nice for the price , but i never got the 2 sim cards working together ? is that normal ? Thanks for the help

  • It seems that the error can be solved: Have fun, JP

  • its really gud

  • I dont know if this phone is an international phone..or if I'd use in other contry?

  • I would like to buy this phone, please advise where is it sold online?

  • I bought this peace of sheat and starts go crazy. Blanks screens,don't works fine about one day. Now, it's sleeping on techinical assistance for 3 weeks and i hope than this ends and i will go gift this to my daughter and buy one another cell...

  • Someone with this phone. Could you please tell me if it works well with voice calls through Skype? Thank you very much.

  • This mobile is a real mess......it doesn´t work properly 10% of the available time, the battery do not support more than 1 1/2h and the "white screen" trouble commes every time XT317 is a "little hot".....3 times a day in my case....... It´s an "amaizing" sensation when you are driving bluethooth conected, phone starts ringing, you see the white screen and beiond being not able to accept the call, you will have to dismount the mobyle to remove the battery, finally stopping the ringer......easy to do this "driving alone", non.......I HATE MOTOROLA and I feel myself stuppid for believe that Google bying Motorola the mobiles would starts working......inocent.

  • I've been searching and i'm almost sure it's an SD card issue. I recommend you change the card that comes with the cell by one of more reliable brand, like Kingston. That solved (or minimized) the problems for many brazilian users, according to forums i've visited. Hope it helps. :)

  • good mobile

  • Having same issue here , bought one and it is unexpectedly booting or having "white screen" issue

  • I also have this problem, Gabriel! Motorola should make a recall!

  • I bought this phone in Brazil with a reasonable price. Unfortunately I am having the "white screen" problem and I didn't find a good explanation about it yet. The GPS and WIFI applications works perfectly. It also took a while (almost 8 mim) to load your contacts database and I don't know why.

  • Hi! U can by this phone in Brazil. R$ 699,00 (~US$ 300,00). Bye...

  • sorry, not put out, correct is take off the batery. obs...i love this cel and i will call motorola again.

  • In brasil the fone's name is fire xt317. i have one and a lot of problems. the display apears a white ligh and everything disapear and you have to put out the batery in order to restart the fone. is a beautiful cel but there are a lot of people whit the same problems,(yahoo, facebook) i dont now if it is a bug or something...i tried three times in diferent stores and always the same problem...is a pity..sorry my english.

  • in brasil motorola put other name. you can find looking for "fire xt317". there are some problems. without a reason the display get white and everything disapear...you have to put out the batery to restart...is a pity

  • Find it on Motorola Brazil's website

  • i try to search this phone on motorola website..but there are no result about this phone..why????

  • I don't know why, but this phone has disapeared from motorola.com.br (brazil's website); many online stores are selling it, however. Also, noticed the price has fallen considerably already (from some 800 to little over 600). Don't know, seems fishy somehow. I'd really appreciate if someone would right a proper review, because the only hands on I've found was the most stupid ever, the guy finished the video when he turned the phone on!!!

  • Does this phone support Microsoft Mail Exchange

  • is this the same phone as the motorola spice key from at&t? yet, i checked the specs and is only single sim.

  • Is there any chance to buy this phone in Europe??

  • Had this phone returned it the same day. Samsung pro is much much better.msorry Motorola but what the hell are you guys thinking. Very cheaply built keyboard ridiculously small very slow response time and every time the screen is swiped the icons are reset. Seems the pro plus is going to follow suit.

  • Great probably first Dual Sim in Android. Is it available in India. If so where can I buy in Chennai.

  • As i see in the picture, it has Infrared, right?!

  • Price is about dhs 799 and they sell it at the virgin store in dubai at mall of emirates

  • Just got it today from virgin. After toying with it for a couple of hours realised the keyboard is too small for me as I havue big hands. It is a good phone just too small for me. Will he returning it tomorrow.

  • This s my dream phone and i want to buy it Can anybody please tell me where this handset is available in India ,city -bangalore ?

  • Please provide details about the price and shop location in Dubai.

  • This is probably the first dual sim-Android handset which should have been a big hit everywhere, especially in the indian subcontinent where dual sim is a household name. I wonder why motorola did not market the phone here.

  • Hello, please provide the shop names which is available in Dubai. I am searching for a while and cannot find even for online purchase. Thanks...

  • This phone just arrived to the shops in dubai. After the wait got to toy with it. It's is much smaller than I thought it would be and was disappointed with the performance and was very cheaply built. It only came in white and gave it a pass as I used to have the droid pro which was a much more superior phone.

  • can anyone confirm is this phone even exists to buy? I can't find any retailers that sells it at the moment

  • Is this phone available in US, where can I find it?

  • xt316 and xt317 are 2 different phones, 316 is th single sim version whereas the 317 is the dual sim=e version, not on ebay

  • The one you speak about is just exactlly the same but is NOT dual sim

  • its name on ebay is XT316 not XT317

  • u can buy it from mobile shop.....

  • Where can I buy this phone here in Brazil?? I've already seen at www.motorola.com.br, but I can't find it in anywhere to buy.

  • Thanks for the good review. Any idea where can I buy it?

  • Hello, Can anybody tell me where can I find this phone?

  • anyone knows the price,but its a good phone only a small screen something like 3.5" and both simcards 3G and a 5mp camera would do better for me.

  • So, apparently this would be the first dual (gsm) sim, android phone out there... As far as i know none of the big handset producers have come up with this combination before. Does anybody know different? Anyway this phone looks real nice. I was waiting for something like this. Hopefully it will be available in Europe. A review please?

  • where can i buy this phone?
