The good: Larger external screen; solid construction; clear, loud audio from speaker.

The bad: No flash on camera; selection button a little small; surfaces easily smudged.

The bottom line: The KRZR K3 is better than the K1, but it's held back by a low-spec camera and ageing menu design.

serves its purpose as a phone



Rating: 7 out of 10 (Very good)
Pros: light and slim
Cons: poor keypad
Opinion:
The phone I had pre-iPhone. It still serves as my backup. Slim and light, the way I like it. However, the keys, like in most motorola phones, takes a while to get used to. I'm a very rough user, and it has lost its sticker for the select button (as being the most overused button).

Not up to the job



Rating: 2 out of 10 (Terrible)
Pros: Solid Motorola construction
Cons: Poor software, can only accept Motorola stereo headset as no jack plug

I purchased one of these three months ago previously having 6 other Motorola models all of which I was satisfied with.

The Text/SMS system on the phone has a fault which Motorola are aware of but have not fixed. If you enter an incorrect character and delete it the phone reverts to upper case ABC1 or ABC2. This I find infuriating.

Also it will not play MP3's with a bit rate higher than 128kbps.
