The editors liked

  • Plays music from iTunes music store
  • Decent range
  • Sound quality equal to an iPod
  • Support for multiple playlists.
  • Speakers are loud enough for hotel room listening. Less chunky and more attractive in the flesh than you’d expect. Good commuting buddy. Twelve hours music-listening from the Li-Ion battery.
  • First iTunes-branded phone * Links effortlessly with iTunes * Good onboard sound quality
  • ITunes software handles well
  • Good quality sound output through headset and stereo speakers
  • Album art displays on handset

The editors didn't like

  • Horribly slow music transfers
  • Sluggish menus
  • Rubbish headphones
  • 100-song limit
  • Dead-slow syncing
  • Poky interface
  • Artificial track limit
  • Reversed stereo channels.
  • ITunes implementation is not done well. Chief annoyance is the 100-song cap (to prevent cannibalising iPod sales)
  • Closely followed by the USB 1.1 connection and sluggish movement between menus.
  • Slow to copy tracks No over the air downloads from iTunes 100-track limit
  • Camera resolution is only VGA (640x480 pixels)
  • 100-tune limit
  • Slow transfers over USB
  • Cant transfer tunes via Bluetooth or buy them over the air

  • Abstract:  Pundits claim that standalone digital music players are destined to be replaced by music-ready mobile phones. If they’re correct - and we’re not convinced that they are - Motorola’s ROKR E1 Mobile Phone ($349.99) will not be the vanguard...

  • First phone with iTunes. Good call quality.
  • Extremely slow music transfer. Somewhat clunky software. No other cutting-edge features.
  • Although the first iTunes phone connects easily with PCs and Macs, the sad truth is that music transfers and the phones interface both feel clumsy....

  • First phone compatible with iTunes, Comfortable to hold and use, Good quality headphones and stereo speakers
  • Only stores 50 songs using iTunes, Extremely slow music transfer, Average VGA camera, Jerky and sluggish iTunes client on phone
  • An older model handset that Motorola has tried to resuscitate by building in support for iTunes -- but in our eyes, there is no real hope for this incarnation. Perhaps in another form, Motorola -- or Apple -- can successfully merge the smooth iPod exp...

  • Abstract:  Overview IntroductionWhen I say ?Apple?, what do you think of? The fruit? iPod? iBook? iTunes? It?s most probably one of the latter terms in this day and age. Apple have become a household name thanks to the iPod MP3 player. The company is becoming la...

  • Abstract:  Much of the apparent disappointment with the long-awaited Motorola ROKR E1 stems from the fact that many consumers were expecting a true iPod Phone. While we feel Motorola have produced a worthwhile standalone phone, this attempted fusion of mobile a...

  • Abstract:  Motorola ROKR E1 seems to be a new and quite progressive mobile. Well, it is not really new, as it has origin in the older E398 model, but it does brings a sure novelty: a direct cooperation with the iTunes program as well as with one of the world?s bigge...

  • Abstract:  The Motorola ROKR E1 takes a step toward integrating a usable audio jukebox into a functional cell phone, but the 50-song limit and the slow processor performance will disappoint iPod users looking to carry a single do-it-all device.

  • Abstract:  Designer und Multimediafans sind sich derzeit einig: Weiß ist die erste Trendfarbe des "Digital-Lifestyle". Physiker mögen zwar vergeblich versuchen, "Apple-Weiß" im Farbspektrum zu finden, doch dieser Anstrich hat derzeit den Ruf des Stilvollen. Als ...

  • Suono ottimo; ITunes implementato; Auricolari Ottimi; Slot esterna per memoria,
  • Lenta connessione iTunes
  • Il motorola Rokr E1 è sicuramente da premiare per il tentativo, sicuramente più che discreto, da parte di due aziende leader nei propri settori di creare ciò che Sony con Ericsson si è prefissa da uno, due anni, ovvero un telefono cellulare che sia an...
