Motorola Q

“If you need a slimline, large-screened companion at a comparatively low price, the Q deserves consideration. But if looks and size aren't paramount, it may be worth the extra bucks to step up to another device, and gain more functionality.”

“With its design, the Motorla Q has earned it the BlackBerry Killer nickname. It has the three S of the perfect gadget: Slim, Sexy, and Smart. Text can be entered at full speed, thanks to the QWERTY keyboard, and displayed on a nice QVGA display. The inside is nice too: the phone is a 3G CDMA handset that can connect to Verizon's high-speed EV-DO network. Internet browsing, email and messaging can all be used at reasonable speeds when compared with non-3G phones. Is the Motorola Q the new King of the hill? Read this review to get our opinion.”

“Motorola has been best known in the cell phone market over the past few years for their Razr range of thin, lightweight phones. With the Q (priced at $299 from Verizon and $99 from Sprint with a two-year contract.), they are looking to break into a new space, the smart phone market, where users look for features like easy emailing and big, bright screens. But the Q is cheaper than most Pocket PC and Palm phones that include touch screens and the like.”
