What's Hot

Thin and lightweight design, external display, touch-sensitive music controls, animated screensavers, A2DP Bluetooth

What's Not

No 3.5mm headphone jack, no microSD card included, sluggish user interface

The Final Word

The MOTO U9 is a nicely designed handset, but given it's marketed as a music phone, the lack of a 3.5mm headphone jack is an annoying omission.
