Motorola ROKR E1 Review

The Motorola ROKR E1 is a fabulous looking phone & comes in a white silky smooth casing which gives it a very sleek feel. The ROKR E1 is the music lovers dream as it comes complete with built-in iTunes® & many more features. This phone is at the higher end of the mobile phone market & is the first mobile phone to include iTunes®. The Motorola ROKR E1 is in high competition with the music based Sony Ericsson W800i as they both come with amazing sound features.

The iTunes® feature can hold up to 100 songs dependant on the network provider & it comes with software to help the user manage all of their favourite music. The Motorola ROKR E1 is the ultimate listening experience for the user & the iTunes® transfer time is approximately thirty seconds for a 4MB music file. The ROKR E1 comes complete with a digital file format desktop music library which makes sure the user has their favourite music with them at all times. The surround sound speakers only add to the fantastic experience which is the Motorola ROKR E1 with iTunes®.

This phone is awesome I have had it about a year now but it's easy to use the iTunes holds 100 songs but the sounds feature can hold over 200 I can get any video onto it, it's never broke but the camera isn't the best & the video clips don't last long but you can choose your own ringtone & overall is an awesome phone.

Why buy an ROKR E1? Just change the cover of my old E398 & upgrade the software instead.

If you're looking for a rubbish phone then the E1 ROKR is for you. Not only will the connecter brake, it will get ripped off as well!

Had this phone for a year now, no problems with it, but then I do only use it for the odd text message & as an actual phone, also found the itunes easy to use.

I liked this phone so much when it was introduced & of course I bough it. I made big mistake, I knew that phone could contain just 100 song but I never knew that phone could be that slow. Sometimes phone would not register who is calling. I don't know, if I worry you, this phone is just for fun first month.

I gor this phone for christmas & it was brill. Itunes i thought would be quick & reliable but it wasnt half of the song said they were lost & it keeps on turning off itself (soooooooooooooooo annoying) the phone is sooooooo slow it takes an hour for the itunes to even come on not to mention stopping & starting a song. i would have been better of with the w800i. the paint is peeling off it is completely white with loads & loads of scratches & i took great care. i dont reccomend you buy this phone stick with samsung or sony ericsson.

I wanted to buy a phone that I could keep for a while without having to keep on updating it every six months. I came across a phone that forefills all my needs & this is the ROKR E1. I'll tell you a few things about it & you can make your own mind up. The iTunes transfer time is about 30 seconds for 4MB music file, it has surround sound speakers to give you outrageous sounds & to be one step ahead of the rest. It also has an integrated VGA digital imaging device that is of top quality & so easy to use, you can also store up to 1,000 phone numbers, the phone lets you to send & receive emails whether it be business or personal. SMS text messaging is a breeze. With the added advantage of GPRS which is where you are continually connected to the Mobile Internet service that is 2 to 3 times faster than traditional GSM data, & with GPRS you will only be charged for the amount you download & not how long you are connected. It's a tri band phone, you can use it around the world. Including Europe, the USA & Canada on 900, 1800 & 1900MHz frequencies. I am a happy mobile user & I wont need to change this phone until my contract is up for renewal.

A bit of a chunky mother of a phone, I was surprised, well liked the sound of it & then went into shop to have a play around & really hated the size & feel of it. So I didn't get this phone & stayed put with my original phone (not saying which phone as I am ashamed to have it). I am quite keen on the sound of the PEBL now & the reviews sound good, will go & have a look at the weekend.

What a phone, it's quite remarkable that they have packed so much in to such a reasonably compacted phone. The thing I wanted to remark on mainly was the long life of the battery, it seems to go on for ages, which is a nice change from having to charge every day.
