We got the Motorola E1000 about four months ago now & we use it as our second phone that is not for our business calls. The phone is nice looking & easy to get to grips with as we just bought it & was using all the features within a few hours. The pros & cons are very easy to highlight. The pros are the camera is good, video is short but good fun & the MP3 player is excellent. The cons are battery life is a little short but it doesn't really effect us as we use the phone mainly at the weekends. The battery would be a problem is this was a business phone. Nice, reliable & easy phone at a good price.

Really liked the look of this phone a while ago but my friend got it so I went for a Nokia. Bad move by me wanting to be different as he is really happy with the Motorola E1000 & I have had 2 Nokia's as replacements. Looking at this phone now I may have to go & get it as it will be at a better price & I know it works well.

Had this phone for 9 days & that was all I could handle as the joystick was terrible & the battery life was none existent. I exchanged it for the Sony Ericsson K508i & it is wonderful to use. I would not recommend the Moto E1000 but would say I still like the look & design of it which felt great to hold.

Motorola E1000 is a very capable & packed phone with MP3, 1.2 camera plus zoom & light, video record & download, 3G & Bluetooth & cheap to buy. I haven't got this phone & think it has been available for a while now but was surprised it was a 3G phone. I really like it & I must have a heavy phone with no flip & flop opening devices. The E1000 should be heavy at 140 grams & has no silly opening, really like it.
