Same design, poor screen resolution, average camera, no radio.
better buy 6233/6131 or K800!

it looks like a smarter idea to buy a n73, k800, d900 for the same or even LESS money. this doesn't work it.

Hi, I'm in th UK and currently have A Razr V3 Black which I've had a couple of years and is suffering from wear and tear.
The reasons why I like my Razr other than looking slick, it's reletivly small, and reliable. The menu has a proper key lock (pin code to unlock the keyboard) and also allows me to just lock certain apps (in my case Messaging is always locked). I also like the being able to put my most used options on the main dial so I have one touch access to "call-list", "messaging" and my "alarm clock". And Finally, I prefer clam-shell phones, but could be puruaded to go to a slider. I'm a photographer, so the camera-phone element doesn't appeal to me. MP3 might be interesting, but then what do I do with my iPod and esure headphones
What I would like to know is if the current crop of mobiles have these features or will I have to stay with Motorola, in particular wait for the KRZR to come out?
I just went to the phone shops to look at the Nokia phones mentioned here, they were non-working models so I couldn't check the menu system. So far I do not like the size of them, they are too bulky, and not very stylish.
Sony are releasing the Z610i which also looks interesting, but I remember the T68i interface was not very flexible, is it still the same?
Thanks in advance for the feedback.

Ok folk's stop comparing this phone to the 8800 by Nokia. The 8800 is not even in the same class as the KRZR. No mem. card, class 2 bluetooth, class 8 Edge & Gprs etc... The KRZR is going to be the next evolution in phones. If you know anything about GSM phones, then you are aware that this phone will destroy all others. Just compare the hard facts and you will see. Also for those who say that Moto. phones are hard to use, Moto is only for those with a higher capacity for learning & understanding, basicly you need to have some brain power, so if this phone is to complicated for you GET SOME BRAINS.

Hi all
Everybody talking about 2MP camera, i think is still s..t if i want to make nice photos i will use my 8MP digi camera and not 2MP or 3.2MP camera phone because is not good enough. I m useing N8800si as spare phone for makeing calls and text and for everything else as net,mp3 etc. i m useing N73. My opinion Motorola will never be that good as Nokia. no way !!! Have a nice day everybody

Welcome to the real world, here in the UK the V3 range is very popular with all, Nokia seem to have lost it's way, I wonder why manufacturers just seem to make "Toys" and very few "Business phones" I was recently in the states and most people were using phones that we had here 5 or 6 years ago, backward or what! Go for the Razors, nokia lost it when it dropped the 6310i-razors are excellent.

Even though I would personally but this phone anytime over Nokia 8800, I actually don't see much. What's so great about it? Has no 3G support and a 2MP camera. Kind of outdated. Yeah, it has a great design. But the price..arghhhh.....All you people out there....Wait another 2 months for BenQ-Siemens SL91. Now thats a phone. Check it out. Better design than any other phone so far and it's techonologically advanced.

I came to a conclusion after my experience with all different mobile phones :-
Motorola - very modern looking phones but with difficult menu. Screen resolution not so good with those 4 letter models!
Nokia - Very reliable, durable & user friendly phones. CON: Some phone models have tiny text size/fonts which make reading difficult.
SE - Packed with lots of features & the best camera in the business. CON: Unstable reception in some models.......e.g. K800, but my 610 is fine.
Samsung - Packed with gadgets. Main screen is usually bright & color sharp. Text size are big & easy to read( Except the numeric "0" which has a line across the "0", making confusion with the "8" easily. CON: Recent phones all look similar, also too wide & flat which make the phones uncomfortable. Weak battery, weak & un-stable reception. From my own experience with so many different Samsung phones, these phones always came up with something wrong after 3 to 4 weeks of regular use, & this seem to be a norm with Samsung phones!( Remember there was nothing wrong in the beginning ).

BTW: the price of th krzr k1 its 450$. by that and just a little more you can get n73 k800!! that overcome it features in every aspect. or EVEN for a lesser price around 300$ a n70 a really recommended phone.

Even though I'm not a Moto lover but I would suggest you NOT to waste your time in comparing KRZR with 8800 just because they are available at the same time and on the main page of GSmarena side by side.
It doesn't worth comparing 8800, the most feature-less piece of crap with a high price tag with any phone at all. 8800 falls under the "Exclusive" crap. Its not for everyone. I'm sure those who will buy it will show it off and when getting a call, simply answer ---- "Hey, how its going..listen I'm on the other line..so let me call you back from MY OTHER PHONE". Lol.

Although I agree it is more rational to purchase a KRZR K1 over a 8800 SE, it really annoys me to see the number of "business people" and "rich folk" walk around with the whole "RAZR" type phones and are just regular people who are showing off.
Personally I love Nokia ALOT more than Motorola and I would purchase the 8800 SE over any Motorola any day.
