I am thinking of buying the K700. Yeah, I can't afford the K750 so I gotta take the next best thing. I can't seem to find any other brands that have any phone that matches the K700 toe-to-toe (and no I don't like Nokia 6230). The K700 I can get online for $212 USD total. Is there another phone with similar features out there for the same price or a LITTLE more??

Moto E398 ? The cam quality is bad but it has all the other features of K700.
If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence of your attempt !!

Never argue with an idiot. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Moto E398 only looks good on paper.
In reality it sucks!

I recommended it to my boss to replace his T610. It's spec looked good and was selling at a huge discount. I thought this was a smart move.

Unfortunately I didn't know the Motorola UI would be so bad.
I was asked to set the phone up, ie: shortcuts, ringtones, speed dial, etc. What a mission! The UI is in no way intuitive and the instruction book doesn't help much. Add to this a poor quality BT connection with HCB-300 carkit, and my advice was beginning to look a little off.
My boss now has a V800, 100 times better phone than the E398.

I have a K700 and I can highly recommend it.

  • Awesome UI
  • Packed full of features
  • 41 MB built in (ok, but would like more)
  • Small and light weight
  • Make your own themes
  • Huge range of accessories (CSS stand is very cool)
  • MyPhoneExplorer (I use it nearly every day)

Get the K700. Alot of Esato member's have had it and were well pleased.

From the get go when the K700 came out I always compared it with the E398, but I actually do not like Motorola phones, so I guess I will stick with the K700, seeing I can get it on www.expansys-usa.com for $USD 191.95.

That's a nice price right now. Thanks for the input.
