Motorola Rokr E8 for T-mobile – Unboxing

I was a little skeptical about this one but ok, I have to admit, Motorola actually did their homework on this one. The Motorola Rokr E8 really is a sight to look at. The phone commands attention with every sense of the word.

The phone has a glossy finish that will drive “de-smug-ificators” (yeah, I made up that word, so what!) crazy. The overall feel of the phone is great. I love the weight and size of the phone overall. This phone truly looks and feels expensive, and it is! The OS is super quick and definitely deserves major props.
