Now that superslim phones are everywhere, Motorola's offerings in this department were starting to look a bit old-fashioned, even though it was Motorola's RAZR phone that started the whole superslim trend. Motorola strikes back with the KRZR K1 (or MOTOKRZR as the company likes to call it). The KRZR is a clamshell phone, like the RAZR, and shares a lot of the RAZR's technology, but whereas the RAZR was a man-sized phone, being quite wide despite its thinness, the KRZR is a much narrower phone that fits better in the hand and is more ergonomic all round. mobilephoneuk.org

The stylish Motorola KRZR K1 is a clamshell mobile phone which has a tall & elegant look to its design. The handset measures 103 x 42 x 16 mm in the closed position which is tall & slim from the front & easy for the user to hold & manage. The phone is very long when in its opened position which makes it easy for the user to make a call & talk into the mouth piece. The KRZR K1 has been coated with a toughened glass compound which is attractive & feels good too. yourmobilephonereviews.co.uk/

The model delivers good receiving quality, typical for all modern devices. Ring tones’ volume is slightly above average, midi-tunes are played back via 64-chord polyphony module, which ensures fairly great sounding. The silent alert is nothing special on the KRZR – it’s somewhere between “average” and “slightly above average” strength-wise. The loudspeaker outputs enough volume during conversations for nearly all environments. www.mobile-review.com
