- Simen, on 10/12/2007, -3/+71The only problem with this one is that it looks like *****, to be blatantly honest.
The design might have been impressive some 7 years back. - Greg-J, on 10/12/2007, -8/+37Mirrors:

. - dracula7, on 10/12/2007, -7/+22the rokr line is the biggest joke ever : motorla trying to capitalize on apple's success without taking into consideration any of the things that made them a success !!!
reported as lameeee - ahmerhussain, on 10/12/2007, -3/+12Is that even REAL?
Looks like some cheap phone with a plastic circle screwed (or even glued) onto it. - detrate, on 10/12/2007, -2/+11I don't know if anyone agrees with me on this... but from my personal experience, motorola's make crappy phones. I've had two... both ended up breaking... however, my nokias have held up.
All show, no go? - markperia, on 10/12/2007, -3/+11i can beat that phone's design...
materials:
-ipod nano (black)
-motorola slvr(black, lol yeah they come in black) or razr (if you want a clamshell)
-ducttape or superglue
you know what to do next... - l3nw3, on 10/12/2007, -5/+13That keypad looks really unusable. Especially for texting.
- davdav, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6Was just thinking that. (About the number 2)
- thepopo, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7sounds like good features but they really need to hire a new design team
- wordup, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8did anyone actually read the page it says: "No iTunes, and that round thing that looks like a scroll wheel is actually just four buttons surrounding a run-of-the-mill joystick." A bit dissappointed.
- outofstep, on 10/12/2007, -4/+10Way to totally fail Motorola.
- analogue, on 10/12/2007, -6/+12Awww ! My eyes !
- Buttercup, on 10/12/2007, -3/+8I thought the same thing at first, because it looks like it bends down, but it turns out that it doesn't. the only problem is that the buttons are a bitch to hit.
- underburn, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Im not partial on it, I just wish motorola would leave the iPods to Apple. Seriously.
- Fly1m1, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6It's a start, that's about it.
- yensed, on 10/12/2007, -7/+11Damn thats ugly
- Philbert, on 10/12/2007, -2/+6Man, that is ugly. Looks like one of those cellphones they have for kids now, except with more buttons.
- ifonly, on 10/12/2007, -7/+11the black vs white wheel = eww
- System84, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Didn't they learn there lesson with the first Rokr
- ronaldpoi, on 10/12/2007, -4/+8The Motorola's Razor V3 is the only one i found cool... every other Motorola phone are not that good...
- ForbesBingley, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3You're not alone there, fella!
It looks perfectly hideous... - Mexrocker, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3that is one ugly phone and sending a text message is going to be a pain.... I hope thats some fake stuff... a lot of images that have been on DIGG have been fakes lately... (3D rendering, mock ups ect..) I just hope this is another fake product...
- shockingbird, on 10/12/2007, -6/+9It looks like an old phone
- ellingswin, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3That is not the ROKR, it is some mockup or whatever. That is not it. We are not going to see a scroll wheel on a phone until apple releases a phone.
- shadowmoses, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5screw this i prefer carrying around my nano and SE K750i.....best combo about...
- adml_shake, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3ugg, why do they have to make the damn number pad so small. Thats one of the biggest reasons I couldn't wait to get rid of my old phone, those of us that arn't chicks or have women-ish qualities can't use the damn things.
- weiran, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3To be honest, I don't care how a phone looks (I think Motorola make the best looking phones actually) as long as it has a decent OS and GUI. And from my experiences of Motorola phones (upto the V3x), its buggy, slow, prone to crashing and extremely badly designed.
I'd pick a W800 over this anyday. - kenfagerdotcom, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4The "scroll wheel" looks tacky and sticks out like a sore thumb.
Question: Do developers of consumer electronics read digg/slashdot/engadget after their products are leaked/shown to the public to get a grasp of what consumers real opinions are? Do they, perhaps, think to themselves "Wow. This really isn't going over as planned. Maybe we should rethink this before releasing it?"
It would have saved Nokia and Gizmondo a LOT of time and energy. Not to mention money. - Hostile, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Is it just me or does it look cheap?
- illu45, on 10/12/2007, -3/+6I don't get the fascination with the iPod/iTunes compatible phones... I have an MP3 player. I have a phone. Do I *really* want them to come together? No. Especially not if it means the loss of battery life, usability, sound quality, design or function.
- Phoenixus, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3That would be the worst phone ever to text message on
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -11/+14That is fugly.
- secretsquirrel, on 10/12/2007, -7/+10agreed, simen. i'd rather have a brick with an actual scroll wheel. it'd still be about the same size. oh, and candy bar phones kick butt... in 1999.
still, digg++ for the news. - iskatebad914, on 10/12/2007, -6/+8i just threw up a little. did a blind man design that phone? and whats with the 2 on the wheel? no menu button? useless! id rather carry around a brick.
- jla1987, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Who cares? Not everyone does text messaging.
- Wintrmte, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Yuck.. Reminds me of an icecream sandwich with its thickness. No thanks.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4Definately not "designed by Apple in California". What a freaky phone..thing, whatever.
- your_mom, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2its not even a scroll wheel it says it right in there.
- ModernTenshi, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4Holy crap is that thing atrocious. I wouldn't be caught dead with that phone in my pocket.
- j0keR, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Horribly ugly. iPod = style. If they can't capture that, then there is no way it will have the same kind of success.
I think we just need to wait on Apple's iPhone.
=P - muikano, on 10/12/2007, -3/+5What's wrong with candy bar phones?
Why are they putting a scrollwheel on a ROKR anyways? It's not ergonomic. Why don't they just go all in and do a Nintendo DS style phone. With the second panel of the flip phone completely touch screen. You can then implement a wheel without sacrificing precious realestate. - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Haha, someone is going through the comments and -digg'ing every comment critical of this phone.
- theone3, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Duely noted. I'll try not to in the future. The description was fairly clear, but I can relate to the confusion that would cause in an RSS reader.
- FunkyGuy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1the keypad is bad, but if they had fixed that it seemes like a great phone, im still going to get the vision m though and stick with my razr. and also the mirror comment, i love having mirrors but I think engadget is stable.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Not good at all. When you affiliate yourself with Apple's products, all your stuff starts looking like #$*% which is extremely, extremely bad for Motorola. They're starting to look like a washed out phone company. And I bet their numbers are going to start reflecting that fact.
- cyssero, on 04/18/2009, -0/+1What's with the "2 ABC" button on http://www.prntscrn.net/img.php?img=ROKR_4.jpg ?
I can't tell what's up but it looks like it's covering something? - docxxvi, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1clearly apple wouldnt put their name to something that looks like an aibo just chucked up after a hard night on the diesel.
- ProAm500, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3The V635 is a great phone...
- FlyingLlama, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1forget motorola their phones suck lately..
- haloevo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1hey that's not ugly.
that's ***** disgusting. -
