Motorola ROKR E1
Score: 65% When: October 2005 Worth: €175 What: Music phones, Motorola phones
With a distinctly mediocre screen and camera, the Motorola ROKR E1’s claim to fame is its iTunes support - yet it only stores 100 songs at a time and offers a bundled headset which is outperformed by its dual 3D stereo speakers. A user friendly menu system, extensive battery life and great keypad stand to counter these downsides, but the overall impression is nevertheless one of mediocrity. Still, although the handset cannot match the feature set of higher-end music phones, its lower price tag enables prospective buyers to purchase new earphones to get an overall experience close to the Sony Ericsson W550 in the mid-range.

Motorola L2
Score: 64% When: December 2005 Worth: €125 What: Slim phones, Motorola phones
The L2 makes for a slim and light business companion for globe-trotting professionals focused on making calls and checking the odd e-mail message, and its Bluetooth support address-book syncing, and great battery life are all nice touches. However, more demanding chatters will frown at the weak display, lack of corporate or POP/IMAP e-mail access, GPRS-only data service and missing memory expansion. More...

Motorola PEBL
Score: 60% When: September 2005 Worth: €250 What: Motorola phones, Fashion phones
Now available in 10 different colours, the high-style oval design of the Motorola PEBL is a must have this spring. For a bag of peanuts, buyers get a travesty of a 0.3 Megapixel camera which should be used solely for MMS party pics, as well as a decent keypad which stands in stark contrast to the poor usability of the outdated and unintuitive user interface of the handset - a constant source of annoyance. Battery life is also a tad on the short side, with 2 hours of talk time and 4 days of standby.

Motorola RAZR V3x
When: January 2006 Worth: €450 What: 3G phones, Slim phones
Every bit as thin as its predecessor, Motorola's RAZR V3x excels on hardware - but faces fierce competition where the original RAZR had nearly none. Its outstanding screen and compact form factor is hampered by the average performance of the 2 Megapixel camera, music player and numerical keypad, while its user interface is in dire need of a usability upgrade - particularly with regard to visual feedback and indicators.

Motorola Q
When: January 2007 What: Business phones, Motorola phones
The Q looks great: slipping it in a jeans pocket is no problem, and it was easy to hold against our cheek during calls. The QWERTY keypad is refreshingly roomy, making for good two- or even one-handed typing. The display looked bright and razor-sharp to our eyes; unfortunately, it isn’t a touchscreen. Our Web browsing on the mobile Internet Explorer was relatively speedy thanks to the Q’s EV-DO connection. The Q’s relative simplicity comes with some important limitations: namely, the lack of a full Office Mobile suite. Its messaging features are up to snuff, however, and music mavens will get a kick out of the mobile Windows Media Player. The Q's 1.3-megapixel camera took surprisingly good pictures for a smartphone. We got about 4.5 hours of talk time for the Q, but conference calling is surprisingly missing. More...

Motorola MOTOFONE
When: December 2006 What: Phones, Motorola phones
Just 9mm thick, the new sleek new MOTOFONE brings some serious style to an otherwise bare-bones handset. Designed for use in emerging markets, the MOTOFONE (CDMA and GSM versions will be available) boasts a ClearVIsion display that's easy to read in harsh sunlight, while an icon-based menu coupled with voice commands in local languages makes for easy-as-pie operation. Rounding out the features are a pair of dual antennas, a speakerphone, polyphonic ringtones and an earpiece with extra-loud volume for busy streets. More...
