Motorola L6

Advantages: Games, some good buttons, signal reception
Disadvantages: Battery, the whole I-Mode thing, Not MP3, Hardly Customisable, Keypad, Only available on O2 PAYG

...wanted a quick, cheap replacement Motorola after my Razr suddenly went out of action. It does have a handful of good points, but you'll quickly see how the negatives outweigh the positive. Size: The L6i is a very sleek and slim phone. At just 12mm thick its possible to pat your pocket and not realise its there. On the other hand, it is about 10cm long. In my opinion this is too long. I like to carry my phone in my back pocket. If you lay it horizontally, ...
...comes with a number of Motorola phones. This is also the same connection that is used to charge the phone Charging: This phone will not charge from a computer. While it is plugged into the computer, for synchronising and transfer of pictures etc, it claims to be full battery, but as soon as you unplug it, the battery indicator changes back to whatever it was before. Phones before this one (ie supposedly less technologically up-to-date) were all ... Read review

Advantages: Stylish and Easy To Use
Disadvantages: Lack of intuitive Name search

...and to a good friend's Motorola RAZR in the pub last night which was a lot easier. Sending stuff via Bluetooth can be a bit of a pain. It also can be connected to Bluetooth headsets which are easy as pie to set up. Computers on the other hand ned a suitable Bluetooth adaptor. I have been advised that you need the drivers specific to the phone. These drivers are a bugger to find on the internet so if you want to do this then get a Bluetooth adaptor ...
...people have confused for the more expensive Motorola L7 SLVR. Compared to my Siemens MC60 it is fantastic although die hard Nokia users will have some problems with it. Me I will always go for German engineering over Scandinavian uniformity any day, despite my Nordic ancestry, and Motorola being American. ... Read review

Advantages: Great looks, easy to use for the basic caller/texter
Disadvantages: Fiddly keypad, poor media all round, useless instruction manual!

Even though I actually bought this phone about a year and a half ago, I feel absolutely no embarrassment about using it in front of friends. Its slim-line DESIGN and large, bright colour SCREEN keep it young and stylish even though perhaps some of the features need updating. The back of the CASING(holding the battery and sim) can be a bit fiddly to get off, depending on how long your fingernails are! However, nothing is falling apart and physically ...
...good thing! Unfortunately, the once classic and stylish SILVER COLOURING is now just making it look tacky, as you can see clearly on every button where it has been worn away. I find the KEYPAD very fiddly to use even now that I'm used to it, as the buttons are completely flat with only a small ridge between them, which makes it easy to press the wrong one, especially when texting. Consequently, I actually sometimes find myself having to press the ... Read review

Advantages: Slim and Sleek
Disadvantages: haven't found any as of yet

...was simply this, buy a Motorola L6 for £69.97, get a free bluetooth headset for the car or walking about if you want to look like a total wally. Pretty good so far I thought, then I read further, £5 of airtime preloaded onto the phone with an additional £10 voucher inside the box. So £15 of airtime a new phone and a new funky headset. Inside the quite large box I discovered all the items named above plus a charger which connects to the phone via ...
...manual and a quick set up booklet. Within minutes I was up and running and in the process of learning my new phone. It has the normal features of organiser calculator and such in the applications section of the easy to use menu system. The menu system seems to be a bit more logical than some mobiles I have had, so it did not take long to navigate through the extensive features. The phone also has a 1.3 mega pixel camera which takes decent photos ... Read review

Advantages: Slim and sleek, easy handling.
Disadvantages: Not enough memory (only 10MB)

When I first saw the Motorola L6, I was tempted to buy it especially because everyone states that it is the best phone company on the market. Having had an old Nokia 3410, I thought it was time for a bit of a change. Some say the Motorola L6 is excellent when it comes to value for money (including me) but there are many things the American company still need to add to thier excellent product. First, let me tell you about some of the good things ...
...of charge very quickly. The motorola charger cable also fits into most other Motorola handsets (including the Motorola V3) because of it's hugely original feature which is a small USB connection. The types of ringtones this phone can hold I think are phenomenal! It can play all sorts of ringtones from MP3 to realtones to polyphonic, anything you like basically!!But what I found amazing is that the Motorola L6 has bluetooth and it only costs about ...

Advantages: Easy to use....
Disadvantages: Not any good in internal memory etc...

...This phone here the motorola v300 was my first phone on my 15th birthday which i thought the phone was excellent. It had a pretty good camera and nice smooth and stylish body work as well as a good range of features. The big let down which me and my mates hated when i had the phone was the internal memory which could only hold one song the memory on this is crapper than the motorola l6. I really wanted this phone before i got it and then when i did get it i thought wow very nice phone and excellent range of colours. Mine was blue and had everything i needed really. The unexpected thing was memory really. I found the phone very easy to use quick to learn with and great for a first time phone. When i first got the phone it was great value for money with everything it had and it was a popular phone back when it came out. Which i like... Read review

Advantages: bluetooth,media
Disadvantages: low battery life

...ok the l6 is a unique design capable of taking videos and pictures. i enjoy the design of the l6 and the secruity feature being so customizable. the l6 has bluetooth but can fault sometimes. towards 2008 the l6 is getting a bit old but still a very good design. battery life is low and has not enoug space in my opinion at only 11 MB teh soft keys on the side are very helpful. it also comes with lots of extras like alarms,stopwatch,web access and an in-depth contact book were you can key in various details like email address etc. you can customize your wallpaper and screen saver making it a phone which is worth having in your possession for everyday use. also i would like to note that my phone has been dropped from a 2 story building onto grass and did not brake making the l6 very strong in its structure....
