The difference between the angle of the slide on the RIZR Z8 and other slider phones isn't vast, but in terms of catching the eye for a cool design, it makes a huge difference. With colored highlights at the joints, the Z8 has a very organic looks, and is almost uncanny in the way the joint on the phone bends slightly like a knuckle, but it isn't only the unique slide mechanism that recommends this phone. The feature set is impressive and high-end, including a sharp QVGA screen, 3.6Mbps HSDPA, and support for microSDHC cards, this phone is a bold step into the slider category for Motorola, which has entered only hesitantly so far, with only one slider on the U.S. market at press time.
