Good: brilliant reception which i cannot get from my storm or htc even set on 2g , build quality, call quality

Bad: texting can be a bit of a pain until you get used to it

Comment: I purchased this phone because i cannot get any reception in my house from either a blackberry storm, htc , samsung tocco ultra even set on 2g or even a bog standard 2 g mobile, and i suffer from servere migraines , This motorola gives me 5 bars of reception whereever ever i am in the house. Yes it is lacking gadgets (but they are not worth having if you cannot make a call) The screen quality is unbelievable and you can save a picture so that it fully takes up the round screen . The build quality is excellent. I read in the other review that they found the menu circle difficult you just have to get used to the top being like 12 oclock and using the keys half way up towards it and going the other way to reach it that way. the camera even though it is 2mega is very good quality and is better than some 3-4 and even 5 mega pixal camera phones that i have had. One thing that i have found a pain is texting which takes along time to get used to, but i have now cracked it. The call quality is so clear and no hot ear. brilliant. I paid about £100 more than a htc pro 2 in the end, so it was well worth everypenny. If you want a brilliant phone, that makes clear calls that looks and feels as though it may out live you, with an amazing screen , that has reception better than none this is the phone. If you want gadets it is not the phone for you, but i have found my ideal phone. One very pleased moto customer and no i do not work or have any connection to them,
