Motorola Grasp user reviews (purple, U.S. Cellular)

Pros Google SMS integration, EV-DO capability, QWERTY keyboard with bubbled up keys.

Cons Huge amount of lag, very poor call quality, poor display, trackpad completely unnecessary as arrow buttons would have done just as well.

Summary This phone is probably the worst phone I've ever owned. The phone has a lot of memory allocated to your sms which is good for a sms phone, but once you get past 35 messages the device will start to lag. Once I'm at 500 messages in my inbox you can be waiting anywhere from 10-30 seconds for the phone to respond to any buttons pressed basically nullifying the fact that the inbox allocation is so large. You really get what you paid for (in my case free with activation), but you'll find that you really should have forked over the extra fourty bucks for a phone that doesn't give you such a headache.

Pros I like the look and feel of the phone and the keyboard without the touch screen. It's user friendly IMHO. I like the fact, it's eco friendly.

Cons I just wanted an easier way to text, which it's good for that, but ear and mouth piece sound are inadequate for me. I've been told, I sound weak and that I'm talking in a tin can.

Summary I'm returning it, because of inadequate sound coming in and going out.

Pros Good screen, good camera, compact size

Cons No touchscreen, keyboard keys are small, numbers aren't in the middle of the keyboard

Summary Misunderstood the description of the phone when I read it online. Thought that the phone would have a touchscreen. The camera takes clear pictures which is nice and the text messaging feature is easy to access with the button on the keyboard. Keys are small so I would not recommend it to anyone with large fingers who text a lot.
