Motorola Q9M Phone
July 13, 2007 by Truman
Not all the details are set in stone yet, but things are looking pretty
good for the new, second-gen CDMA Motorola Q. (brother of the Q9H, the GSM version for carriers like AT&T and T-Mobile.) Motorola has chosen Verizon
Wireless as their first carrier for the CDMA phone, which is great,
because, well, I have Verizon! In physical appearance, the phone is
very simple looking with some cool metal trim. This new phone is about
the same height and width as the first-gen, just a little thicker. And
I like that. The first Q on Verizon was, I felt, too thin. It
didn't feel natural in your hand for that reason. Motorola has changed
that this time around. (MORE AFTER PICTURE)

Motorola has added a soft-touch (rubberized) paint to the back of the
phone, so it will have better grip. Another plus about this phone is that is
has a 2 megapixel camera, which, although it may not seem like much, is better than alot of camera-phones out
today. Yet another great new feature added to the Q is a scroll wheel in
the center of the command panel. This makes things easier for users, like viewing web
pages, reading texts, or writing word docs with the Windows Mobile 6 OS.
The
keyboard on the Motorola Q9M sounds fantastic, using a reported "grippy
matte surface" rarely seen on phone keyboards before. Testers report that " the
QWERTY keyboard on the Q9M is probably the best ever used on a Windows
Mobile Device when it comes to typing." Sounds good to me.
All in all, the Motorola Q9M, expected later this year, is an improvement to the first Q. The new phone has much better battery life than the original, with the old phone having 4 hours of talk-time and 8 days of standby, and the new phone having 6.5 hours of talk time and a whopping 20 days of standby. We know nothing about prices as of yet, but we are hoping that this phone will be under $300 dollars. Why? Because I'm not rich, that's why!
Well, now you know about the Motorola Q9M: Coming Soon.Now, all there is left to do is play the wating game.
