How can you even compare this to a nokia 8800 for desing or N80 for features? Motorola phone are garbage, unreliable and outdated. The design simply carries on the old V3 theme. They cost a lot when released but drop 80% of their value within a few weeks. This thing just screems bad taste.

i couldn't agree more, saimon. the krzr k1 is smaller, thinner and lighter yet it has twice the battery life of the 8800se, faster data and a microSD slot. that longer battery also has to power -two screens- btw. all in an arguably more attractive package.
nokia was outgunned on this one. moto made sure it was released right along the 8800. look at the front page of gsmarena, in stores now section. there together head to head.

Just picked one up at the shop for US$400 only(discounted already). Nice to hold because of the overall slim design(slim do not mean thin, flat & wide like recent Samsung phones which are uncomfortable to hold).
I only brought the Nokia 8800 sirocco yesterday & this K1 today, so I can only give basic comparison of this phone with my black 8800 sirocco :-
The blue colour K1 is shiny & sharp(the new Nokia 8800 sirocco in black is also very shiny).
I prefer the look of my original 8800 to the sirocco. Regarding the look of the K1, it's very modern but not as classy looking as the 8800.
Feel of the sirocco is solid but the K1 is not bad either.
The K1 does not look much narrower than the sirocco but it feels a lot narrower in your hand. K1 is also thinner.
The K1 screen resolution is not in the same class as the sirocco(my Moto A1200 beats them both). Don't understand why Motorola is still using the same resolution as my old V3 or my D&G V3i ?
The flip of the K1 is very easy to open & close with one hand.
The MENU is almost the same as the Moto V3 series.
I have to play more with this 2 phones to tell which one is better.......even though the 8800 is more than double the price of thr K1.

This K1 was one of the many new Moto phones on display at the large South Africian Moto phone announcement.
The GSM version is in ice blue color & the CDMA version in greyish black with touch sensitive keys for playing music below the outer screen.
The ice blue color is much sharper than the black..........under bright light; it look so shiny like the diamonds from South Africa!
The outer cover/flip look like a shiny, clear transparent glass which is not prone to leave finger prints on it. The blue color layer used under the transparent cover is a non-reflective material.......this make the phone look to be covered by a layer of reflective blue mirror whch does look like shiny reflective South Africian diamond under bright lights........amazing!
Function is not the major selling point of this phone, but basically, everything you need is there.
The camera lens is a little on the dim side, a little brighter would be nice.
The speaker at the back is loud & sound quality is very good.
This phone support T-flash card & A2DP Bluetooth technology, which make listening to music more relaxing.
The keypad of the display K1 feels a little hard to press.
In my opinion, this MOTORKRZR K1 is better looking than the MOTORIZR which was also at the show. The RIZR do carry shade of Korean look.
There's also the 3.5G MOTORAZA maxx; MOTORAZA xx & the very thin MOTOFONE at the show.
2 new handsfree bluetooth, the H601.......which is made specially for the MOTOKRZR with a LED light to show battery condition, and a H800. Both use "Easy Pair" technology.
