Motorola Q Cell Phone
The Motorola Q is one of the most anticipated phones of the year. The sleek RAZR look combined with Windows Mobile makes it the ultimate business tool. Although the exclusivity for Verizon is good news for US Verizon customers, it is a big disappointment for GSM customers worldwide. Since the Motorola Q was revealed by Motorola, there has been talk about it everywhere by everyone. I have finally got my hands on the Verizon Motorola Q. To find out what all the fuss is about, READ ON!!
The Motorola Q is a lot smaller than I expected. In pictures it looks a lot bigger, but when you actually have the phone you can see how small it is compared to its competitors. The world famous sleek RAZR look is what makes this phone so dreamy. The Q is magnificently designed because it is the first Windows Mobile phone to have a scroll wheel and a back button on the right hand side (Think Blackberry).
In my opinion this scroll wheel is meant for maneuvering the phone using only one hand, and this is the feature that most Windows Mobile phones are currently missing. The buttons that are located on the front of the phone have a RAZR look to it, and are designed very well. The QWERTY keyboard is also excellent for its size. Although the keyboard is small and the buttons are very tiny it is not hard to use, and you get used to it very quickly.

The Motorola Q has all the... Pros: touchscreen,qwerty,3g, Cons: bulky Summary: alright i know that the phone was recalled but now its back and truly i would take it over my matrix i just got out of ,y matrix contract and the quick fire say wat u want is a great phone and really good for kids not for a buissness but for simple use Pros: easy texting, video and camra, internet service Cons: bad battery, touch screen unresponsive sometimes, has some other minor glitches Summary: i think its a pretty decent phone, its great for texting, and thats a whole lot easier, its battery can be anoyining though, and sometimes the touch screen just doesnt work, but overall, im pretty happy with it. 2 out of 3 people found this review helpful Summary: i think this phone is awesome cause it looks a lot like the sidekick and it comes in many colors. 2 out of 4 people found this review helpful Pros: very easy-to-use keyboard with nice layout, good sound quality Cons: touch screen unresposive at times Summary: The Quickfire is decent as a texting phone. The touch screen is unresponsive fairly often, but when the phone is open this is not an issue - there are up, down, left and right keys on the keyboard. I would still recommend this phone, I think the pros outweigh the cons. 4 out of 6 people found this review helpful Pros: keyboard, ease of use, screen locks, good camera with mirror, charm hook Cons: iffy touchscreen, bad battery Summary: I have had this phone for a week and love it. It definetly has pros and cons. Pros: -Keyboard-The keyboard makes texting easy. I text alot and this makes texting very easy. The keyboard is very responsive. The keys and fairly large and raised so they are easy to press. They have space in between them and it does not feel cramped or tight. This is definetly the best keyboard that I have texted on. -Ease of Use-The phone is pretty straightforward it is hard to get used to at first. I adjusted to this phone very quickly. -Camera- The camera has a mirror next to it for self-portraits. The camera is 1.3 mp. It is pretty good for a phone. I still carry around my digital camera though. -Charm Hook- Many people overlook this feature. This phone has a place for a charm. This helps add a personal touch to the phone. Cons: -Touchscreen- This touchscreen is hard to describe. Some days it works perfectly and some days I think I am going to break the screen from hitting it. Most of the time I wind up having to navigate with the arrows on the keyboard. The most annoying part of this is that sometimes when I touch something it will go to a different application. This is very frustrating. I would not let the touchscreen keep you from getting this phone. -Battery- The battery has three hours of talk time which is fair for a phone. By the end of the day, if I sent about 200-300 texts and a couple of phone calls the battery will be about 3/4ths gone. The battery is fine if you charge it everynight. I would definitely recommend this phone to anybody. I understand why some people say to not get this phone but there are ways around the problems that are not that annoying. Even if you are not sure if you are going to get this phone, go to the store and check it out. If you are still not sure, get it and if you do not like it then return it. Please give this phone a try. 16 out of 18 people found this review helpful All Motorola Q user reviewsI just bought a refurbished Motorola Q. I am having a real hard time understanding how to preview a ringtone before I set it as the one I want. I know with other phones there is a preview button to push but this one does not show. I have been trying for 2 days to figure this out. The manual doesn't say how to do this. Thank you. Hey PhoneDog these are some quick and useful tips for the Motorola Q.
