Motorola Pebl U6 Reviews
TrustedReviews has reviewed the Motorola PEBL and writes - “Motorola’s PEBL is a beautifully designed and constructed phone that will appeal to the style conscious consumer. It’s far from feature packed, and the lack of internal memory will severely limit the use of the features that it does have. However, if you’re looking for a small and stylish phone to - god forbid – actually make phone calls, the PEBL should be high on your list.”
CNET reviews the Motorola Pebl U6 from T-Mobile and writes - “The Motorola Pebl has a sexy design and comes with Bluetooth, a speakerphone, world phone support, and solid call quality. The Motorola Pebl has a low-resolution camera, it flips open when dropped, and it suffers from tricky and smudgy controls. Undeniably attractive, the Motorola Pebl offers great performance and an acceptable–if not high-end–range of features. Just make sure you give the controls a test-drive. ”
PC Magazine reviews the Motorola Pebl U6 and says - “Reception with the PEBL seemed good on the T-Mobile network, and sound through the earpiece was unusually sharp and clear, though neither the earpiece nor the built-in speakerphone were very loud. We found that transmission quality wasn’t as good as reception quality; voices transmitted from the PEBL sounded slightly fuzzy. Like the RAZR, the phone is quad-band for the best possible international roaming experience. Battery life, at well over 8 hours of talk time, was very good.”
