Motorola MOTOROKR E8 3.50

Explain star rating

RRP

$450.00

Review Date

Friday, 25th of July, 2008

Features

Form Factor : Candybar

Mobile Network Bands : Quad Band GSM

What's Hot

Morphing keypad, 3.5mm headphone jack, 2GB internal memory with microSD slot, stylish design, keypad lock switch

What's Not

No 3G/HSDPA, interface a little slow at times, can’t adjust scrolling sensitivity, mediocre camera

The Final Word

The wow factor of the MOTOROKR E8's morphing keypad alone is enough to turn heads. Although the lack of 3G may be a deal-breaker for some, this remains a stylish and commendable music handset.
