The Sleek and Slick Motorola Q cell phone is advertised as the thinnest and lightest PDA type Cell phone on the market. I'm very impressed with its slight design and size. Its currently utilized on the Verizon and Sprint cell phone networks, but may soon not be so exclusive.
The "Q" has a Nice and Crisp feel with a selection of either Silver or Black and with a 2.5" LCD screen. If you don't like the basic colors, there are a variety of aftermarket "skins" and covers to spice up the presentation. The Q also utilizes the "Qwerty" keyboard often used with other PDA Type cell phones (See Palm Treo, BlackBerry, BlackJack).
The Q also offers a 1.3 megapixel camera capable of taking nice photos, as well as short video clips. It uses a Mini SD card for storage allowing even the most picture happy users to store plenty of photos (or MP3's, videos, contact, etc.).
This phone is really useful enough to allow you to leave the laptop at home if you are on the road for a short trip and need to check email often. Its easy to use email and Outlook as well as browse the web to check web based email. It does utilize the Windows Mobile Operating System and is easy to learn and get comfortable with if you are a PC user.
The Q also features BlueTooth capability, Voice recognition, a myriad of PC-type pre-installed basic games, and Wireless Sync to move files/emails back and forth from Cell Phone to PC.
PROS: Light/Thin, Excellent Internet/Email options, "Trendy" looks, easy to use Qwerty Keyboard, Well known Windows Operating System, Quick internet
CONS: Has Hard time recognzizing some BlueTooth Devices, LCD easily smudges, occasional call drops
Overall, I rate the phone 4.5/5. Its features are plentiful and it is a very easy phone to use. It helps the busy professional organize their schedule and stay up to date with email/internet access anywhere their network services. Its only drawback so far is that it appears to sometimes drop calls and has had problems recognizing some BlueTooth devices.

Then the design for this phone was done long RIM released the Blackberry Pearl. I can't see how you can compare the Q to the Pearl. In my opinion, the Pearl is just so much cooler than the Q on so many different evaluation points.
I'll take a Blackberry over this thing.

Does anyone know the Motorola Q retail price nowadays? I would like to have one of those, but I do not think that this cell phone will work in my country

Re: Motorola Q Review with photos
Those look very good. Are there all kinds of different colours?
They look very expensive, what price range do they go for?

I have a Q9M now and have not had too many issues with it. I got the extended battery because I was watching movies or listening to music on the way to work, but it was pretty decent life while doing so (about a day)

Re: Motorola Q Review with photos
This phone is simply to big for my taste. But thats the flaw of all todays smart phones. I like its big 2.5" LCD display, and Qwerty Keyboard is always great thing to have, especially for those who send a lot of emails using mobile phone. I don't know for that call drooping issue, if it happens to often it cold be very serious flaw.
