I have one of these phones in green, although it's almost orange now! It's a great phone and has lasted me years, with the battery holding a good charge. It's easy to use and I love the small, compact design. A cool fashion accessory, Motorola have always been a pioneer in mobile phone design and innovation in my opinion.

I had this phone, until I left it on the bumper and ran over it with the car.
It was AMAZING. Best phone i've ever had.

You can buy a new one on Ebay for £33.58. It is the genuine article.

It is the best phone I have ever had. I love the one hand flip option it does. After a while it does get a little dingy looking on it's color, but it is a great phone. I have dropped mine many of times and hasn't broke yet! (knock on wood) Would difiniatly recommend this phone to anyone.

I had this 'phone for 2 years and I can honestly say I have never loved a 'phone so much. Then the speaker failed:(
I replaced it with a Sony Ericsson Jalou.
This looks lovely but isn't a patch on my dearly beloved Pebl.
I wish I could still get a Pebl.

I've had my bulletproof orange Pebl for, wow, 4 years now. Bought it unlocked (which was bad, as it was from singapore, and had to reprogram the languages as it defaulted to Simplified Chinese - which I don't speak!) as I needed a 4 frequency phone, it doesn't have a bunch of bells and whistles, but it has never (I mean NEVER) stopped working between 3 different simcard providers worldwide. The little outer display cracked (dropped it 4 stories, and that was the entire damage), Drowned it at least twice, and it keeps coming back for more. I live in areas where cellular coverage is spotty at best - this unit ALWAYS eeks out the tiniest signal. Oh yeah, it's the ONLY phone I can wear tucked IN my swimsuit top and I forget it's there - try THAT with a RAZR!!!
The ONLY bad thing is eventually the soft plastic color coating gets dinged and looks scruffy - and the little magnet pads start to rust. Yeah, someday in the far future I'll need to replace it... but as long as I can find it, it will be another U6 Pebl. NOTHING compares to this phone.

i have had this phone for 4 years now. It was very expensive, the memory is less than that of a person with amsesia, it turns off by its own, the alarm doesn't go on sometimes, the message inbox has gone crazy, blank screen is a common fact

I got the PEBL U6 in June 2007 I loved that phone but when it came to upgrading, was told T.Mobile didn't supply that phone any more. Wasn't happy at all. Anyway husband found that I could get the U9 through Orange so we moved to them, I do like the phone but not as much as the U6, anyway managed for just over a year then decided to get my U6 unlocked. And now happy to say I have my beloved phone back. It hasn't got the best battery life, but I have no problems with charging as always keep a spare charger in my bag also have a car charger. My only problem is I can't get software upgrade as USB doesn't seem to work, I would like to get my photo's off phone on to laptop, anyone got any idea's.
