Re: Rough Review & High Hopes
Most reviews have been rough the same thus far. I have not gone to Cnet yet but I will tonight. For now, here is TmoNews.com's summary;
"The preorder date is just around the corner, and the first batch of in depth reviews, of the T-Mobile bound Motorola Cliq, are rolling in. A quick run down would be that Blur looks good, but the battery life in the Cliq is very poor as a product of Blur, if you happen to have a bunch of friends updating their statuses (ironic). Overall, the phone seems to be fairing, well, so so, with some positives and negatives. Notable pluses include the slide out qwerty (which is always a plus), MotoBlur (sure, some quirks, but overall amazing) and a capable (okay, downright loud) speaker and vibrator mechanism. Cons include the same processor that is found in all other Android phones to date (it really is becoming outdated), a slight wobble to the sliding mechanism (though it is solid, it just moves), an overall heft, and Blur drains the battery considerably. Everything else is a mixed bag of pluses and minuses. More videos after the break! Are you going to be getting this Android phone? Leave your opinions and thoughts in comments!"
Above is straight from TmoNews.com
Its slightly different but the Battery issue remains the same, problematic. No mention on the call problems though.
Anyway, thanks for the heads up on the Cnet (and possibly others) review. The more the better. I will continue to follow up on this phone and wont make judging yet.
