Typical price: £240
What is it: Stylish, ultra-thin clamshell phone with touch-sensitive outer screen
What we think: The V8 is shinier, slimmer and has a better interface than any Motorola phone since the V3, but it's still missing a few features

"Fundamentally flawed"
What I like:
Stunning, Voice Convo quality, Large Front Screen
What I don't like:
2 Fawlty Handsets
Review:
Having seen how stunning it looked on display, I decided to go for one, being generally pleased with motorolas of past.
However, the first handset had a problem with it's camera and returned and replaced, and the second has now started crashing. Orange customer services have told me that motorola know there is a fault with the V8, and are contacting people with problems to try and resolve it. Shame they didn't think to resolve it before releasing it.
Has truly put me off buying another moto. My advice, wait until these problems have been sorted before buying one!

BlackBerry Storm 2
Clicking touchscreen may be useful for clumsy people, but ditching the Qwerty keyboard has its drawbacks
INQ Mini 3G
Sluggish at times, and not the easiest phone to use, but it offers a great range of features at a low price
BlackBerry Bold 9700
Has everything that makes the BlackBerry format great, but other smart phones offer more innovation
