> In reply to Anonymous @ 2009-12-22 00:17 from n9BR - click to readi have had this phone since this launch, manly because i have to have good call quality and have only 2g reception where i live. this phone has been worth every penny. Even though it has a 2 mexa pixal camera the shots i have taken with it are better than with a 6 mega pixal phone as the quality is brilliant. the screen is awsome and makes any screen that you look at on a phone afterwards look like total crap. i have got full bars on reception on remote parts and in an emergancy that is what i look for. After 2 years the phone still looks as good as new. to all the people out there never knock a phone until you have used it for the trial period as you may be suprised. And the best thing about the phone in the two years i have had it i have never seen another person with one unless it was a 2 sim card copy and copying is always the greatest compliment.

the phone is crap...it's made in prc = people's republic of china, the menu is awfull...don;t get me wrong, i wanted to buy one last week, had the money in the wallet - best thing is that i kept em there...bought a 6700 all black edition - way way better than this and at 195 euros it's a mean machine. so my opinion is not to buy this piece of equipment because : it's made in china = beautifull exterior, rotten interior, the menu is very very hard to use if u use a phone a lot in a day...

The sound quality of Motorola's "Crystal Talk" techonology is really amazing. No competator even come close ... especially noticable in noisy surroundings.

> In reply to Daniel @ 2009-11-28 22:45 from 3c19 - click to readYes, I know what's inside the phone :)
I've seen one dissasembled piece-by-piece.
The problem with the screen is that I hate those dust particles. Anyway, I talked with the official service provider in my country and they'll take care of it. :D
It's the only problem I have with my Aura.
Oh, and yes, I still love the blooming thing :))
I wanted a phone to look good... if I need sumthin' to cook for me, or to vacuum the house or whatever, come on, I'll get a made. ;)

Later edit: The only metal parts are the back cover, the one you take out to reach the battery - and the front sliding tongue. The back bottom is chromed plastic.

> In reply to amenx @ 2009-11-26 09:30 from mAVW - click to readI have not experienced your problem but I managed to disassembly the phone (only the bottom part) and I had quite a view ;).
With this occasion I saw that in fact the back lens is plastic made, or plexi ... in no case crystal as I thought ... so pay attention that it scratches if U insist.

The screen lens I could not reach because I was afraid to force the disassembly. I had no dust issues here.

In my case I wanted to repair the scratched plastic around the keypad. I managed to do it (repaint) but it took me a few days to realize how to assembly back the rotating mechanism. Anyway the scratched part (see the photos I made few posts ago) is very easily removable - WITHOUT EVEN TRYING TO DISASSEMBLY the pone - is just sticked with a double layer adhesive band - but the Motorola Customer Care does no even try to offer any assistance. A few hints would have been very useful.

The conclusion is that the phone looks spectacular on the outside, but seeing its "interiors" you will discover that you paid a whole s*it of money for a different design, metal case, a beautiful screen, crystal sapphire lens and that's all. The rotating mechanism is far from what Motorola wants to induce from their marketing.
That's all folks!

2500usd in Turkey. ıt is a crazy price 4 me. And don't understand that its functions can be found in a reasonable ph in the market.

I've seen a few comments in here about the Moto Aura that it doesn't deserve the money... Yes, it's true only if you want to have a phone with a lot of apps. This phone wasn't made for all whistles and bells hi-tech specs. This is just a jewellery-phone.

Can someone, please, tell me if they experienced any lens problems with the AURA?
There are a few dust particles under my lens which can be seen when the screen is turned off... and that ruins the phone's aspect.
I posted a question on Motorola forum, but I haven't got an answer from there yet.
Thanks.
