Advantages: Great design Disadvantages: Difficult to use
...had decided I wanted the Motorola Z8. I hate Motorolas as a general rule - I find them quite clunky and hard to use but I had tried a Z8 out and decided I quite liked the feel of it. I was sold on the HD screen, the fact it will play a full length film (not that I often have occasion to watch a film on my phone but you don't think of these things when you buy one). It seemed pretty easy to use with a decent sized memory but most of all I liked the ... ...phones. Its still disappointing that Motorola seem to have chosen to make savings on he camera and I feel that this lets the phone down.
The reception quality is ok but not great and I have to assume that this is the phone as I have been with o2 for some time without any reception problems.
The other major problem as far as I am concerned is that files, messages, numbers etc are automatically stored on the phone unless you change this - this meant ...

...and i came across the Motorola Z8. it looked good, it sounded good and aparantly it was meant to be good..... little did i know how much trouble i would have with this phone.
When i recieved the phone... you get it packaged in a nice big box with a photo of the film you revieve on the memory card, the bourne identity, on the front. I could sit here and tell you all about what you get with it, the memory card, tell you about how pretty it looks... ... ...This phone is nothing but trouble.
I had it for less then a month before i had to send it back. The first thing i noticed was the length it took for when you open it... it takes 3-5 seconds for you to be able to move yourself around the menu which can be so annoying. The menu itself is laid out really nice and clear..... but its just annoying with the waiting time for you to be able to access it.
Then i noticed a whining noise everytime i recieved ...

Advantages: Sleek design, great movie playback, great sound quality Disadvantages: Not brilliant battery life, Very complex - hard to pick up and use,
Motorola make a nice phone?!!
Yes its true, this phone is fairly good, it has all the features of a modern day phone and more. Well first of all the standard functions: they are very good, the mp3 player is very good and the quality of the sound is fantastic, i compared it to my Sony Erricson w850i and i prefered the Motorola Z8. As for the other features they are pretty much the same. Except from the curving slide design which works suprisingly ... ...not a big fan of Motorola but i have to hand it to them it is a great quality screen and the movie playback is fantastic, it truely looks amazing and with the great sound quality it truly is amazing, It also includes the S9 headphones which are really good and a copy of Bourne identity which is a really good movie. Also the charger that comes with it works in UK and Europe which is good for businessman, which is who the fone is aimed at. However ...

Advantages: Everything you could want from a phone Disadvantages: a bit exspensive
This tasty little number has been brought to you from those wonderful people at Motorola.This really is a great little phone,it's sleek ,stylish, and sexy. Oh yeah and very high tech as well.The Z8 has all the right curves. One of which being the one that curves lovingly around your check and done towards your mouth.Its the first phone that I have ever used that I feel comfortable holding in my hand and talking into.The Z8 comes equipped with a nice ... ...and a hefty 4GB of memory when you use the micro SD cards.
It has a nice little feature on it where in you can take the sim card out of the phone without removing the battery. Although you will need to reboot the phone afterwards if you do swap sim cards over.Highly pointless but yet a new feature.
The front of the phone is covered with a nice glossy flat face and a small VGA for making video calls in the left hand corner. As like all the other ...

Advantages: good picture quality Disadvantages: my whole reveiw is negative realy
I got this phone with o2 over a pay monthly scheme. I pay £35 a month and this came with the phone for free as well as a free bluetooth headset. It came with the film The Bourne Identity on a 512mb mini SD card. The phone is stlish and has a bend in it to cause ease with talking on the phone and has 16million colours, a 2 megapixl camera with an 8 times zoom. To be quite honest however i wish i'd never bothered with this phone. It has caused nothing ... ...as easy as another phone might be, it takes ages to load the menu and after you change a profile it seems to freeze. The battery life is pathetic if i'm quite honets. It's tempermental. Sometimes it'll last two days without charging (although it will decrease the battery life), however sometimes the phone will be dead by the time the day is out evne though i had the phone on charge all day. I want a phone to help me day to day, and this phone is ...
