I just want to know whether or not the Moto Cliq will be getting an Android update to 1.6 or 2.0 soon. I’m sure I’m not the only one that wants more info on this. I only have a couple of days left before I can return the Cliq. Please bring us more updates on this David and Mystic. I know we would really appreciate it. Anyone else with me on this?

The CLIQ is very different from the G1. I went through (3) G1’s and I felt it was not a very good phone. I now have the CLIQ and it is night and day from the G1. It is snappier, more functional and just more fun to use.

LOL, some of you must have a vested interest in killing Tmobile or the Cliq. I have a Cliq, my fiance has the G1. They’re good phones. The Cliq is not the same as a G1, I don’t care what the specs say. If it was the same, why would my fiance be joking about being jealous of my new phone. The camera is definitely better, for one thing. Also, the Moto Blur software is not insignificant. If you do the Facebook stuff, it rocks! I was at several special events the last couple of weeks where I was uploading pics and updating my status as I went. It was easy and fun (and probably annoying to some of my “friends” on FB, oh well).

If you look hard enough, you will find reasons to be unhappy with any piece of technology. Even iPhone users have things to complain about. And, everyone waiting for the next great phone will get it and then be all bummed out 6 mos later when the other, shinier phones come out.

Those of you saying the Cliq is just a G1 in a new shell are either lying, misinformed, or not very intelligent. As a hands on user of both devices, I can say that the Cliq is better than the G1. And, I’m very happy using it. That might be because I didn’t expect it to tell the future, save lives, or transmute lead into gold. If you expect it to combine your communications from text, email, Facebook and other social networks into a single interface and make interacting with all of those services nearly seamless then you will like the phone. If you like having all of your contacts from social networks, gmail, and other sources automatically updating into your phone so you can get an array of information about them including emails, phone numbers, birthdates, status updates, and so on all at the flick of a finger, then you’ll like the phone. If you use your phone as a mobile communication device in multiple formats then you’ll like the phone.

If you expect the phone to act like a desktop computer or you think it might cure cancer, then you’ll be disappointed.

I just hung up with Motorola and they informed me that they are not sending OTA for android 1.6 or 2.0 for the Moto Cliq and are not working on changing the android 1.5 OS to any other version at this time. He stated that the main reason for this is because the Motorola Cliq is running on Moto Blur with android 1.5 running on top. He said that the Moto Blur is the main software and that is why they see no point on worrying about upgrading the android os. He did mention that the Moto Droid will be exclusively to Verizon and not TMobile and will be the first android phone to sport the android 2.0 os and will not be running any part of the Moto Blur software. I am extremely dissappointed. I am going to call and return my Moto Cliq and get my self a MT 3G. I might even wait for the special edition MT 3G to come out.

Are you kidding me $199 for this? If I’m a new customer I will choose Verizon Droid over this Tmobile Click. They have the same price $199 for new customer and the Droid is a way better cellphone than this CLICK. Well its $149 at walmart. Lol.. I’m keeping my G1 till it dies in my hands or maybe till Sholes come out.

Cliq is an ok phone, but where are the high end offerings by Tmo? Live by the low end, die by the low end.

The Droid may have better “specs” but the Reviews sucks. If I didn’t get the Moto Cliq and Tmobile was Offering the Droid, I still wouldn’t get it. Everyone claiming specs This and that, but the reality of it is really !!!Looks!!! cuz its bigger, and sleeker looking..ect,Just like the hd2 everyone drooling!! Unless your a real Technical Person (Rushmore lol), who actually Knows about Hard/Software Please Shut Up if you wanna talk specs! =)

If you Like it, Good if you don’t, Good!
But don’t talk about, Leaving Tmo, or The Droid Yada yada if You Don’t know anything besides what you’ve Heard/or saw in comments.

I enjoy the cliq minus that Small Keyboard,Flash and can live without the Moto Blur. Its my 1st Android Phone, and I wanted to test the platform out. Didn’t want to jump to another expensive carrier, Sign a Contract,or one lacking in coverage FOR ME.

Moto Cliq 4 Now, N900 Later!!
