Thank goodness, my year of having this phone is nearly up! Lovely to look at & easy to use (very used to Motorola's so usually go for one) Just that things go wrong all the time with it. Camera was rendered useless after 2 months, after about 4 months the flip wouldn't fully open & the phone just flapped about, 6months gone & all my saved videos just vanished! Overnight. Then its little party trick is only occasionally letting you view your missed/dialed/received calls list, so making it impossible to return a missed call. Screen whites out, phone sounds like a generator makes a horrid hissing sound (goodness knows what it's doing to my brain cells!) Oh & sometimes won't even let you use your address book, so if I can't memories a number I can't dial.

Other than that it's alright!

Since I've had this phone in March I have had a number of problems. Firstly sometimes I cannot take pictures or if I do they are all pixelled out. Secondly now if I add a new contact to my phone I cannot go back on to their details afterwards. Also sometimes when I text my phone has a mind of its own & if you press one button loads of letters come up & you can't delete. There are too many software programs with this phone I can't wait for my upgrade. Also what's with the little birds that Siemens & Sony have but on this phone absolutely nothing can be done with them? You can't have them as wallpaper or insert them in a message... what's the point! This will be my last Motorola!

Got the Motorola E1070 a few weeks back & it is easy to use, good opening, good screens & like all the features but do have problems sending messages as I have not had a Motorola before. My daughter is training me how to send MMS messages. Good all rounder.

Excellent mobile, enjoying the camera, video, games & mms. Got a cool deal as an upgrade on contract, best buy I have had with such a modern designed moby. Go get one today, no faults so far.

Lovely phone & smooth to operate. Using the 1.3 mega pixel camera almost every day & have had a giggle with the VGA camera video calling. My boyfriend & I just laugh at each other every time we have a video call but we are sure there is a more serious side to the video calling facility. I am having problems with the video recorder as I can only record for about 30 seconds, or is 30 seconds my lot.

I think that Motorola have finally realised that we all hate phones with antenna. Like the design of the Motorola E1070 it truly looks a good solid mobile phone. Don't own this phone but I am due an upgrade in two months time. Can't give fair usability rating, sorry.
