I've been a Sony Ericsson user and was apprehensive about buying this phone. This is one of those rare phones that has a tactile feel that makes u want to caress it. The weight of the phone itself gives an impression that its solidly built.

A few issues that I have with it is the backward user interface. The icons look so 1980s, like Windows 85. The least they could do was to give us better looking ones like the ones found in E680i. My main peev is with the phonebook. I can't believe they are still using individual names for each number instead of grouping it into a user's set of numbers.

And what is that scroll wheel doing on the interface? Arrrgghhh! I feel cheated of screen real estate. They think we're that stupid to need it to guide us through navigation?

Since the camera is on top of the screen, it wasn't possible to have a bigger screen. But if you look at the edge of the screen, the thick lining around it could have been used as extra space. It would easily provide another 15-20% screen area.

Why am I not sending it back? In the end, the cool design won me over. Motorola has finally been able to give us a design that closely resembles a Star Trek communicator. Now, if they would only add in a feature to make a sound when the phone is flipped, I would be able to use the communicator sound with it.

      There is a special XMAS edition out I saw on http://www.ImportGSM.com that comes with 2 batteries, 2 chargers, HS-850 headset, case and other stuff! The box looks AMAZING though. They have pictures they posted on Howard Forums and also if you click screenshot on this page:

                  I am very happy with this PEBL U6 phone. I use mobile phone mainly for making & receiving calls & messages. The bettery life is good, the reception much better than the V3 & the look & feel of this phone is amazing.

                          Great Phone. All those comments about lack off features are, i think, rubbish. So it hasn't got a megapixel cam. If i want to take serious pics i use a serious camera, so it hasn't got a card slot. i use my pod for mp3. i use my phone for..... calling people and that's exactly what this does and the interface is very user friendly and i looks awesome and don't forget people, the outside material isn't plastic it's fully metal and the package come's with a usb cable, BT-headset,CD (phonetools software) and charger. Eat yor heart out Samsung and friends :-)

                              I was never interested in the look of this phone from website pictures until I saw it & hold it in my hand yesterday (this phone was available in Hong Kong for more than a month already).

                              After I saw it & hold it in my hand, I just can't resist the temptation & brought one!

                              I think that the design is great. The phone look nice & the feel of holding this phone in your palm is excellent. This phone is small & the exterior material Motorola on this phone just feels amazing to the touch!

                              The drawback is that the firmware is the same as my V3........what a shame! Motorola could have given this Pebl U6 a better camera & higher resolution main display (plus a little bigger screen).

                              Anyway, I love this phone because of the elegant look, the small size of this phone, the feel of the material & how the shape of the phone fall so smoothly in my palm.

                                I've been using this for a while, it's a neat phone. But I haven't used it to its potential at all yet. I've been able to connect the Pebl to the computer via bluetooth, and also to another phone. However I haven't been able to log onto the web. The opening mechanism is pretty neat too, I found out about it when I was bored and decided to mess around with the phone. Over all it's a very neat phone... loving this than my v300. Big leap.
