Fantastic phone. I cannot understand the sense in the needless bashing. The specifications are given, so don't buy it if you want additional or enhanced features. The lack of message space is a trait of all Motorolas and nothing new.

I love it

          I heard that this phone can only play up to 192kbps, is this true?

          And how can you activate the 10 free itunes download when you get the phone?

              I recieved my Motorola ROKR E1 in the post yesterday.
              I am going to write the things i like and the things i dont about the handset and then give it an overall rating after i have finished. I hope that the review will benefit people interested in the ROKR.

              Good points
              The phone looks great. I really like the white and silver finish of the mobile. It really is like no other on the market. The keypad backlight is also very bright and adds to the quality feel that the phone posesses.

              I-Tunes! I think that this is a great addition to the phone. I have to laugh though when people list bad points such as "only 100 songs can fit onto the phone". Oh what a shame. A PHONE that only plays 100 songs. I think some reviewers expect a little bit too much.
              Anyway as far as the sound quality and ease of use - I-Tunes is a really good function that this phone has.

              The phone comes with EVERYTHING when bought brand new. I mean data cable, 512 MB memory card (Trans-flash) etc etc. I know that Motorola are the only company who issue data cables with their phones on a regular basis which i think should come as standard with others.

              The price! I got my ROKR for £79.99 off O2 and it was SIM free so i'm using my Orange SIM in it. I think that its a great price for what you get.

              One thing i like a lot about my Moto, is the fact that you can change the themes and the skins on the phone which allows for an awful lot of customisation. It can change the way the phone looks instantly so it always feels fresh.

              Texting is easy and user friendly with this model. It keeps up quite well and the input system remembers your favourite words which i find quite handy.

              Rythm lights. These are cool. They light up whenever you recieve a text or incoming call wihch is another unique touch by Motorola.

              The phone boasts really good features such as Bluetooth (which works perfectly). I have tested with a SE K700i and a Samsung D600 and transfers have gone smoothly with no problems.

              Bad Points
              Camera. Ok - I HATE Motorola cameras. They are absolutely rubbish no matter what model it is. They really are terrible. The biggest pain is the band that fills up half the screen when your in viewfinder mode. Alls it does is say how much memory you have. The worst thing is its still there when you view the picutres so they are only ever viewable at half the screens size which i think is really bad. If you want a good camera look eslewhere. It suffices though for silly snaps on the go however but if you want a decent one go to Sharp.

              The joystick. I find this ok most of the time but if your hands become clammy or your finger is wet you are gonna have difficulty using the joystick. Becuase its metal and round like a ball almost your finger has to be bone dry in order to be able to navigate easily with it.

              My final bad point is the fact you cant upload your pictures or transfer images from your comp to the phone. If you can i dont know how becuase the only CD you recieve is for I-Tunes and not the usual Motorola phone tools. If anyone knows how to transfer and if ive just missed somethin silly then let me know. Thanks.

              Well thats it. All in all i am pleased i picked this handset as my next phone. The good points far outweigh the bad but the camera does let it down an awful lot. In conclusion i rate this phone....
              80%

              Hope this helps some people when they are trying to decide if this is the phone for them.

                    iTunes is a media player like realplayer etc, and for the windows problem i'm thinking that you will have to get xp or 2000

                                      Well, I read tottaly wrong ppinion about this phone
                                      about the battery life this phone considered better than any other mp3 phone.
                                      My friend has w800i and he say his battery only can power up his phone for 1 day with maximum use, comparing to my ROKR I can use it up to 3 days without any charging and use the loudspeaker.
                                      and the speaker is light years better than w800i.
                                      about why the memory card only can support 512 mb, it's because the biggest capacity of T-Flash avaiable at market is 512 Mb. Meaning: You will never find even you search to North Pole 1GB T-flash.
                                      and just for fun: if you want to carry more than song limit than your itunes, you can buy another memory card so you can fill both. I wish the memory card was hot swap, but unfortunately you have to open the back side in order to change your memory card.

                                        Battery time is poor, very poor, comparing to SE W550 and W800i... furthermore, the price difference between W550 is not so big...
