Outlook:

Feature-wise, when it comes down to middle-range and low-range phones, in my personal view, Motorola makes the best of them as they don’t try to swindle you by taking out some of the regular features such as microSD slot and Bluetooth A2DP, however, design-wise, like I always say, Motorola needs to get their act together. The Motorola MotoROKR EM25 seems to be another music phone that would appeal to the mass market.

Problem:Submit to me.

Finally, the EM25 has a dedicated music key for say, pausing or playing tracks. Like the other two Motorola handsets, the EM25 also supports FM radio but also includes a feature called FMShare that lets you share details of your favourite station with a friend through text message.The EM25 can also identify tracks that you hear whilst out and about, such as tunes playing in a shop’s changing rooms.

The ROKR EM25 features SongID, a service that allows you to quickly and easily find artist and track information for songs that you hear on your car radio or other source, and the innovative FMShare feature allows you to share audio clips and FM radio stations with friends who have phones equipped with an FM radio.
