djdj, 05 Feb 2011wat in the world id d-padIncredible phone, very fast and awesome diplasy. The docking station is very cool ,where the phoneturns itself into a (nearly) complete PC with the addition of one of the docks which Motorola offers.Motorola isn't kidding around by packing this handset with a blazing 1GHz dual core CPU, 1GB of DDR2 RAM, 16GB of storage onboard (plus a microSD slot for another 32GB). Along with the massive internal horsepower, the device boasts a 960 x 540 capacitive touchscreen that Motorola is calling its qHD diplasy which also happens to be covered with Corning's Gorilla GlassThe real highlight here is the 5 megapixel shooter on the back of the device, which cranks out impressive shots in both high- and low- light, and can be customized quickly for various settings. The camera also functions as a 720p video camera.As far as truly unique hardware goes, the fingerprint scanner seems fairly novel but in practice it's a little frustrating. It does work as advertised, but being told to re-swipe your finger if it doesn't take when you're trying to get into the phone quickly can be a little bothersome. Unless you really need this high security, a standard passcode will suffice for most people.The Atrix 4G might be one of the best Android devices. It's got specs that run laps around most other devices, which should make most potential purchasers feel a little safer about laying out cash for a smartphone right now.

ric, 16 Jan 2010I use Milestone for 4 weeks. It's a great phone - fast web ... moreI am a big tech geek, I usually know what I'm talikng about. Definitely not the HTC 7 Trophy. Windows phones generally tend to suck. Based on the sole fact that the mini is still on android 1.6, I for one would go with the Motorola phone, which is on 2.2. Also, the Motorola phone is faster and has 8gb of internal memory vs the mini's 128mb. The Milestone 2 is also wayyyy faster than the mini.

If your planing to use the phone for longer than 10 minutes,dont bother getting one.
My new Milestone was getting very hot starts burning the ear,drops call and starts to beep.
Dealer replaced it with new one and second new phone did the same.
Dealer did update and made no differece.
At times,i feel like running my car over it.Telus not much of help.Motorola wants me to send in the phone for repairs without a loaner phone.What a set back for $700.00 phone.

GSM Arena - youve always been my first port of call for Mobile reviews and news - but it now appears that you have a bias - despite not reviewing Motorola products for a considerable time, you now hold back a detailed review of the Milestone for an unacceptable length of time.
Your first preview was so under-whelmingly written it displayed the underlying concerns of many here - that your reviews are biased for whatever reasons.
Sad as in my experience when blogs, review sites etc become biased - the community of users see through it an usually and suddenly move "en masse" to another review site.
Does anyone have any suggestions of an unbiased site?
