Motorola E398

By Pearl_Ivy

one of the best phones i've ever had. i've taken care of it and it's served me well.

build quality is excellant, stereo is loud and works well, joystick is easy to use, menu set-out is logical, bluetooth works well

can be a bit confusing at the start, 'silver' on sides of phone scratch easy, screen shows up fingerprints and chips/cracks, can be a bit slow

Same old battery problems. Charger will not charge phone. My son, who is autistic contacted Motorola and they told him it was not covered under warranty. He put the phoen in his cupboard and of course, the warranty period ran out. Now we have a phone that...

Charger is very second rate as is the after sale and customer service.

It's a good mp3 player/phone for a fraction of the cost of others with similar features

simple and straight forward interface and controls. Those used to the Nokia controls will take time to get used to it though. Very good sound quality through the stereo headphones. External speakers are also good and has a very good and easy to use speake...

camera quality is not good at all. No video recording. The silver colour on the sides scratch off easily. Pretty slow. When the battery gets completely discharged (i.e., when the phone switches off after the entire battery has been drained), the given mot...

I've owned this phone for around 2.5years now and have just upgraded so thought I'd write a quick review. Had good service out of this phone and was happy with it for what I paid (AU$59). Call quality and reception have been excellent. Reliability has bee...

A few steps away from being one of the best phones out there! Used this phone heavily for four years!

Excellent reception, talk & standby time.

Have changed outer casing twice in 4 years as print & rubber comes off.
