Motorola E398

The Good:
Superb speaker quality, fancy disco lights, bright and big display, cooool design, artistic display themes, 64 MB Transflash memory card included

The Bad:
No radio, no video recording function, no infrared



Motorola really aims the E398 for youngsters, or for those who are funky and musical. With the superb quality of speakers, you will hear MP3 songs real good. It's near CD quality sound. A little less than perfect. When someone calls you, the flashy disco lights will turn on, it's a nice eye candy, although not really necessary.



The display is very bright and excellent, just like Samsung phones. It's brighter and softer than Nokia 6600. And you can customize the display with pre-installed themes. The themes are cool. Navigation is a bit confusing, and not as easy as Nokia phones. But the joystick works well. Bluetooth runs smoothly, yet too bad we don't have infrared in E398.



May be one major flaw is the lack of radio. Imagine if you turn on your radio and you can play it loudly through the high quality speaker of E398, it will be heaven. Still, you can play some MP3 songs very nicely. And download more contents to make this E398 really dances.

Conclusion:
Based on the nice features, such as hi-quality speakers and display, plus the big external Transflash memory, this E398 is a nice investment for music, and possibly, java game lovers. If you are young and hip, or if you feel you are, then why don't check out the phone before deciding to another brand. You might like it.
