The Bottom Line:
I recommend it, I've had my KRZR for almost two years and it still works great. I bought it on Amazon.com with a 2 year contract. It's nice and compact.
I've had my Motorola KRZR K1 for one year and nine months. It's served me well in that time, even though I've dropped it a few times. I decided to buy this phone because of the sleek look and it was thinner than the Motorola RAZR. I also preferred the straight across button place as well. Being able to download new games, sounds and graphics to my phone immediately is a plus. I LOVE LOVE LOVE being able to create my own ring tones by singing, talking or my own music. I like being able take pictures with the 2mp camera and short video w/sound, it comes in handy when someone's doing something funny (or illegal) and I'm without my digital cam. Although, viewing the pics in the daylight is hard unless you cup your palm around the screen. The usb port cover for the charge is attached to the phone and is very sturdy, so you don't have to worry about losing it.
The material on the back of the phone is rubberized so it really protects against surfaces. Which is more than I can say for the front, the blue metallic gloss front is fragile and cracked pretty severely as soon as it hit the ground. Fortunately it didn't affect the way the phone works. It also is a magnet for fingerprint smudges, which annoys me. I like being able to go online, however the button to connect to the Web is inconvenient. For the first few months, I would daily access the Web accidentally. That can add up if you don't have a data plan.
Some of the things that irk me, while I'm talking if my finger hits the voice record button it'll record my conversation and save it to my sounds. The Voice Calling rarely calls the person I ask for. By the time I've repeated myself for the third time I could've dialed the number manually. The free trial games and applications programmed into the phone cannot be deleted. It causes confusion when I purchased the actual games. I think you should at least be able to remove a demo if you buy the full version.
All in all I enjoy using my KRZR K1, there are still features I haven't used yet but intend to. Like the digital player that allows you to play any sounds that are already in your phone in the form of an MP3 and there is a place for a mini SD slot.
