    CNET Review

    May 24, 2006

    The Good: The Motorola Q boasts a sexy, ultrathin design and features a sharp display, a full QWERTY keyboard, EV-DO support, and a sharp multimedia functionality. The Windows Mobile 5 smart phone also has integrated Bluetooth, a speakerphone, a 1.3-megapixel camera, and solid call quality.

    The Bad: The Motorola Q lacks integrated Wi-Fi and analog roaming, and you can't use its Bluetooth as a wireless modem. The screen also tends to hold a lot of smudges, and there's no option for a cameraless version at this time.

    The Bottom Line: The Motorola Q lives up to much of the hype by offering good call quality, an excellent multimedia experience, and the essential productivity tools, all wrapped up in a sexy little package.

    Review Summary: The Q falls between two worlds; it lacks the more sophisticated software of the Pocket PC based devices, and it lacks the simplicity of phones designed more towards voice use. As such, those who need their business information (such as scheduling and cale
