Motorola Cliq photos

With its excellent design, user interface improvements, and admirable feature set, the Motorola Cliq gives a big boost to the Android operating system. We had some performance quibbles with the device, and the MotoBlur interface can be a bit much, but the phone offers a lot to like.

The click has a textured battery cover. The camera lens sits on the left side and the back of the slider shows a glowing Moto logo.

The Cliq's keyboard is exceedingly spacious and comfortable. Indeed, we had very few complaints.

We typed messages quickly without making mistakes. The display will rotate automatically when you rotate the phone.

The Cliq has three physical controls below the display. Though the buttons are flat, they're also easy to use.

The Cliq's memory card slot is stashed behind the battery cover.

The Cliq is large enough to offer a solid feel in the hand.

But it's also small enough to fit into a pocket.
