Motorola ROKR E1

By Jeremy Roche on 14 December 2005

An older model handset that Motorola has tried to resuscitate by building in support for iTunes -- but in our eyes, there is no real hope for this incarnation. Perhaps in another form, Motorola -- or Apple -- can successfully merge the smooth iPod experience with a mobile phone.

    Great phone. Had it for years and now my wife is using it.

    • Good: The big plus and all other phone makers should pay attention is the outstanding battery life. Sound quality is excellent. Easy of use very good.
    • Bad: USB cable connections and those terrible Motorola charger connections are the worst. Nokia is way ahead there.
