Motorola MILESTONE 2 review: Landmark droid

27 January 2011
The MILESTONE 2 has a single mission – to reclaim the top spot in Android messengers for Motorola. It has the pedigree and the personality, and with the right upgrades, it seems a lock to become the next all-in-one messenger...

    Great phone.
    Why moto refused to just give it 1500mAh battery is beyond me.
    Anyway, how do you set what apps/func to be opened when home button touched twice? (Default voice search)

      100 Moto, 28 Jan 2011What's wrong with 8GB internal memory? I have the original... morenothing wrong with the 8GB internal memory, especially when they took the courtesy of bundling a 8GB SD card in it. and besides, if u want more memory go buy a 32GB stick. but unless ur having a shit load of porn, 8GB takes about 4000+ pics on 5MP AFTER having 2GBs for music. thats MORE than enough.

        for me i think a 8gb card is sufficient
        unless u are telling me u put a whole chunk of p*rn* inside your phone
        way to go moto & hope they unlock the bootloader too
        cheers =)

                What's wrong with 8GB internal memory? I have the original Milestone and the first thing I need is MORE INTERNAL MEMORY....have been deleting apps due to insufficient internal memory.

                External memory is super cheap these days, I can get 8GB card (which comes with the phone anyway) for around US$20, 16GB for around US$35.

                But then now if I want more internal memory on my Milestone...US$537...for a Milestone 2!

                  What?! Internal memory only on apps? And what about movies music etc.?

                    It is a great phone indeed - owning it since day one it became available. If only the music app would stop crashing every hour or so and then camera app would stop freezing and not responding, it could be a perfect thing!

                    The "no updates" and "no rooting" policy is also something I do not understand...

                        Three and a half days battery life with WiFi always on? Seriously? If that's true it's AMAZING. I know someone who charges his Droid X two times each day.

                                No dice.
                                You've got to be doing better than that, to get to the Top.
                                All I see here, are stolen Ideas, and if You've made no improvements...
                                They're not innovative... They're still just stolen Ideas.
                                ... No Dice.
