Posted By Juicy-Lie on July 4, 2007 @ 6:34 pm

I recently had the chance to try out a Motorizr Z8 from Motorola.  This mobile phone is new offering that is a smart phone with some unique characteristics.  This phone has some good unique features compared to other mobile phones on the market.

The Good:

  • A unique contoured shape that conforms to your head when the slide is open.
  • Vibrant, easy to read display second to no other phone.
  • Unique iTap text input system.  The phone will remember common phrases that you type into it automatically as well as automatically correct any spelling errors that you make.
  • Excellent music player that can start instantly after the phone is turned on (via Instant On technology).

The Bad:

  • They keypad, screen and mirror like back are all magnets for the grease on your hands (be sure to bring a wipe or two).
  • Becomes sluggish when running third party apps.
  • 2 Megapixel camera with average performance.

The Not Ugly:

Though the phone is not perfect, its’ unique shape, look and plentiful features make this phone from Motorola a good buy.
