“Overall, the Motorola Spice is a nice addition to Mobilicity’s line-up of devices, and increases their Android offerings, which has become increasingly popular over the past year. The Spice parallels the form factor of other popular devices such as the Blackberry Torch, and Palm Pre 2, at a fraction of the costs and contract commitments. Although the OS is out-dated due to the recent releases of Android 2.2 and rumoured Android 2.3, the software still powers a reliable phone and messaging device that will gain popularity for first time smartphone users, who are looking for an affordable solution.”

I got it from Mobilicity and I love it. For the price, there is everything in it. Yes, occasionally it freezes but other Androids, iphone and blackberry do too. However, the battery doesn't last long. I am just wondering if I should buy another phone than replacing the battery.

In Depth
The Motorola Spice is a well-built touch screen vertical slider offering the user a choice of input options. When closed, the Motorola Spice presents an interactive capacitive touch screen complete with customization options allowing for personalization and the ability to get to your favorite apps with a single click.
Slide the Spice open and you have a full QWERTY keyboard, complete with thoughtful, contoured keys, for folks who enjoy a more organic typing experience.
Motorola has taken a decidedly different turn in the shape of the Spice, curving edges to build a more friendly-looking device than the now omnipotent “black rectangles” that have become so popular.
Powering the Spice is Android’s 2.1 OS, and the phone ships with a fine collection of standard and mid-range features including Bluetooth 2.0, Wi-Fi, GPS and a capable 3MP camera with video record capabilities.
The 3-inch display produces 320 x 480 pixel resolution, rendering crisp text and good quality photos. Add an FM radio, YouTube player, full internet browser and built-in online support for both Facebook and Twitter, and you have not just a phone but a social butterfly waiting to connect with new friends.
If your current phone is starting to bore you, you may want to add a little, dare I say, Motorola Spice to your next upgrade.
