I needed this phone to replace a BlackBerry I had ruined. I needed a phone that still had smartphone capabilities and wouldn't disrupt my work. Also being tight on cash, the Moto Q seemed to fit my minimum requirements. The one I got was used, with minor cosmetic damage. And being that this phone debuted several years ago I was expecting a downgrade in quality. This was held to be true. The QWERTY keyboard is great and the buttons are decently sized. The screen is also quite large for most smartphones of its type. The ease of use and navigation are great on this phone. When it comes down to it, I get frustrated with the struture of it's text messaging system. Not only do you receive a confirmation pop up EVERY TIME you send a message, but Inbox items and Sent items are in 2 separate areas so you have to click around for a bit to back track. The Internet isn't too bad. About 50% of the web pages load to a reasonable degree (the webpages I frequent anyways) but many times it just decides not to load anything--especially videos from YouTube. Webpage loading is pretty fast though, I might add. Email works well on this phone. I do not have Outlook (which is preprogrammed) but it's easy to add all of your email accounts and access them all from one screen. The Moto Q charges quickly and holds a charge for a pretty good length of time. Overall, this phone gets the job done. It seems to incorporate many unnecessary extra steps to achieve tasks, but that's understandable considering its age. ItRead full review
I bought this phone as a temp replacement for my N97, and I can straightaway say that I could have spent 30 fewer bucks and gotten a basic but more functional phone. Look: At first glance, the phone feels too wide, and the screen too small. But then, for 50 bucks, I guess that's what you'll get. Controls are strangely placed - but then the phone is from an earlier generation I guess, when the side-scroller was still in vogue. There was a garish blue Motorola M that felt like it'd been glued on. Weird! It also took me some Googling to find out how to lock and unlock the Moto Q. Call Quality: I wanted this phone mostly for making calls, and it was disappointing to find that the model I'd purchased had poor call quality. I'm unsure if this is a feature of the model or that specific phone, but I'd occasionally hear a screeching sound when trying to make a phone call. It was totally random and I was unable to figure out what the issue was. OS: Considering this phone is from an earlier gen, I'd expect no miracles from the Windows Phone OS, so there's no surprise that it was slow and unresponsive compared to current phones. Conclusion: Strictly a temporary replacement. Unless you have a reason to buy a Windows phone under 50 bucks, I'd say even an entry-level Blackberry is a good (albeit costlier) purchase. If you can do without a smartphone, go ahead and buy that Nokia 2630.Read full review
I needed a replacement phone with a QWERTY board. Refurbished Motorola Qs were ~$50 here on eBay. The good things: It was cheap and is pretty compact. It's easy to navigate and it checks your email automatically (however often you set it's routine check) It's a great phone for people who don't want to download apps etc... Speaking of downloading apps etc, because of Verizon's new BRIGHT IDEA data package deal, I must pay $30 a month extra for a phone that doesn't even really connect to the internet. I would not mind paying that data price for a phone such as a DRIOD, palm, etc, but I can't really do much with the internet at ALL on this phone. The only other complaint is that when you send a text message to another Verizon phone, you get a text message saying that it has been sent. There is no way to turn this off, unless you do so before EVERY message that you send. 100% good to keep as a backup. Good for one's first phone or people who don't care about downloading fancy things.Read full review
This phone is basic no WiFi and the Bluetooth can not do data of file transfers. The menu on the phone is very simple. Was not impressed and the phone that was sent me had been flashed to another carrier. CDMA phones that are not listed on the ESN log of a carrier will not be activated. In other words if it started out as a Sprint and some one flashes it to Verizon. Verizon will not activate that phone even if it will work with there services because it is not in the pre-approved ESN log. The ESN does not return a "all clear" result. The only thing that i liked about this phone was the "flash" for the camera. It was a horrible flash but worked great as a little flash light to see in the dark with. If you are looking for a texting machine for your device and do not do a lot of browsing or calling then I'd say go for it but I would not spend more the 30 dollars on it and make sure your getting the charger and battery with it for that price. (And make sure is has not been flashed- ask for the ESN and call the carrier it has been said to be for. They will let you know if it has a clean ESN and if it is one of their devices.)Read full review
This is overall a decent smartphone; it's no iPhone or Android, that's for sure. I would recommend it for someone who wants a smartphone that will do basic tasks such as: send & receive e-mails, video messaging, keep track of and organize schedules, and browse the Web in 3G. If you're looking for a phone that compares to the iPhone, this is not it! I only got this phone because it works with Page Plus Cellular (a prepaid cell phone service, that runs on the Verizon Wireless Network). It is considered a great phone to use with them.
