Fabulous Device!

9.7 out of 10

Just a fabulous device after having the hero for a few weeks I really don't regret my switch. The physical keyboard is great!  I just love typing on it and it's very accurate.  The capacitive screen is just beautiful and it's very responsive to the touch.  The camera takes very nice pictures in the day or night with the provided flash.  Call quality is as good on this phone as any phone I have ever used and the speaker volume is just loud! 
Anyone experiencing poor battery life just download task manager from android market and put a stop to all the running programs. Works like a charm. I have been using two days and finally needs a charge. I can't put it down!
The battery life on this device gets to 15% and stays there for quite a long time. Most people understandably will charge it before that and think the phone battery is toast. If you completely drain it two times the battery percentage will level out and read more correctly. The battery will also get much better with use.  You can also improve the video feed exponentially by going into the menu when you are watching video and switching to HIGH DEF option. Crystal clear video is the result!!!!





Fast beautiful screen nice keyboard loud speaker phone excellent call quality camera has a flash solid build lots of apps to customize great battery life if using task manager
Operating system 1.5

go to the market and get ahome, and hero weather gadget. Also task killer and automatic task killer. All free I think except the better version of ahome which is worth the couple bucks. Then you'll have great looking Skin that you can customize to your tastes. I love my phone twice as much because of ANDROID. Phone is only as good as it's UI. This phone running WM without a skin would be a 5 simply because of WM. Android 1.5 is 9.5 compared to WM 6.1.



It's fast, powerful, great camera, awesome screen, etc. Simply the best android phone on the market which makes it the best phone period!! Cheaper and more capible than iphone. Hard just as good (usable) as droid, nothing out there beats this phone!!!





seriously everything!!! fast, keyboard, killer screen, etc.
space bar sucks, and waiting for android 2.0. But, this phone is fast enough to rock 1.5 and the market has killer apps!!!! My keyboard fills loose, battery dies really fast but i use the hell out of it.

Excellent phone to run any application

The construction of the Moment is satisfactory.  Coming from a tank that was the Treo 755p, I wasn't fully prepared for moving parts in a phone.  My previous phone landed on the concrete more than a dozen times; however, I'm not about to do a drop test with this phone!  There’s a very slight wiggle in the screen hinge, but that may be normal. After all, it needs to slide. It feels pretty sturdy, though, and concerning its guts, it's awesome. 



The AMOLED display produces great clarity and color.  The 320x480 display has the right amount of detail where I don't believe I would fully utilize a higher level of granularity.  16M colors makes a huge difference in the quality of photos and video. Pics look great, and blacks really look great. If you have a black screen displayed, it appears to be off. It’s really neat, I think.



The physical keyboard is pretty good.  Side slider keyboards need to be designed flat to keep the phone as thin as possible. However, with the design of this keyboard, I can still feel when I move from one letter to the next. This really helps out when typing without looking at the keyboard. When using an onscreen keyboard, I tend to have to look at the keys, which takes away from the task. On the other hand, the position of the space bar takes some getting used to. For example, I occasionally press the V when I need a C, considering which letters are below the D.
 
The capacitive touchscreen is very responsive. I had to get used to not being able to use a stylus for precision selections. Make sure to buy a screen protector to help prevent fingerprint smudging.  The optical trackpad is a nice addition. You can use the trackpad or the directional arrows on the keyboard for navigation. This gives you input options if you don’t want to touch the screen (with gloves on, for example). However, the menu button is touch sensitive, so when you’re using the trackpad, watch out for the menu button. Since it merely brings up the menu, it’s a minor inconvenience to push menu again.
 
The 800Mhz processor is AWESOME. If you only run simple apps like the browser, FB, calculator, Google maps, etc. you may not notice how well the processor works over a 528Mhz. However, if you run apps like Documents To Go or Olivetree Biblereader, you can appreciate the extra power. Excel sheets run smoothly, pdf’s render quickly, presentations look great. You can quickly access and scroll through bibles and commentaries, which we all know are HUGE books. It’s like a small computer! The processor will NOT disappoint the “power-user”.
 
The camera works just fine. I think the pictures are clear, and videos are satisfactory. I don’t use this feature much, so it’s good for me to catch spontaneous moments. No pun intended. The flash works pretty well, too. It won’t replace an actual camera, though. It’s a smartphone with a camera attached. If you want a camera with phone attached, try the HD.
 
The speakerphone is loud enough to actually be useful. Voice navigation directions are clear, and phone calls are also good. The battery life is good. I get about 4 hours before I’m down to 5% battery. Then it goes into power-saver mode, which lasts for a couple hours more. So if you’re away from a power source for long, perhaps get a second battery for $25.
 
The UI is Android 1.5, which does not support multi-touch. However, I believe 2.0 does. So if you absolutely have to have multi-touch for whatever reason, you will need a firmware update to Android 2.0, which will be available next year. The basic UI works just fine for me, so I don’t need a fancy overlay. I’m more interested in performance.
 
Overall, I am very satisfied with my phone. It’s worth it. Go ahead, capture the Moment. Pun intended.
