Motorola EM330 Phone, Titanium
I got this phone a month or two ago and its already well on its way to breaking in half. The phone itself is pretty cool, but great features and what have you do no good when your phone is in two pieces. There should be a recall on this phone, I have heard too many cases of them breaking in two just like mine and several others reviewed here on amazon.

I have had this phone for a week, and still have trouble picking it up without turning on the music player or changing the ring style. The buttons on the outside of the phone are way to sensitive and practically impossible not to touch. The outer screen just cracked and is no longer readable. To be fair, this happens to all of my phones, just not in the first week. I just wish they would make an inexpensive phone that had some protective padding or armor. The phone could easily be twice as thick and still fit in any pocket. They are all to flimsy for someone with an active lifestyle.

Like others have mentioned the hinges are prone to break. Do not get this phone. It is cheaply made plastic junk. I didn’t realize it was completely cheap plastic when I purchased it online. I tried taking it back to AT&T and they told me the same thing…user abuse.

The back cover is a joke! The clip for it broke the day I receieved it in the mail and put the back cover on. I’m not the only person who has had this problem with this phone. Personally it’s junk! I tried to get AT&T to send me another back cover, but they wouldn’t. I will have to try Motorolla. I never even activated the phone. With the unassigned sim it makes a great little FM radio. It’s advertised above as having a 3.5mm jack. It actually has a regular 1/8 inch headset jack. I was able to attach my favorite set of head phones.
If I can’t get Motorolla to replace the back then this is just 100% trash.
AT&T made me spent another $130.00 to buy another phone.
AT&T sucks your pocket book!

A tempting package if you’re looking for camera, radio, mp3, bluetooth, etc. Add a 2GB microSD and you get a lot of functionality.
But it’s so poorly designed, I can’t recommend it at all. The buttons on the side get constantly pressed in your pocket, causing music to start playing through the speaker, or turning off the phone ringer. (A sequence of multiple keypresses should be required to activate exposed buttons.) Almost as irritating is that the outside screen is so dim you can’t read it in daylight, so you have to flip the phone open to see who’s calling. And in general, the user interface is an old low resolution design, which does not clearly alert you to missed calls, voicemails, etc. Also note that other reviewers have reported weakness in the hinge.
If you’re looking for a cheap compact AT&T phone, a better choice is the LG CF360. My daughter picked the LG and loves it.
Related note: if you’re just looking for basic phone service and don’t want to pay for a data (internet) plan, call AT&T immediately you get your phone and have them block data access. All AT&T phones come loaded with 3G apps, so a few inadvertent keypresses, and you’ll find a slew of unintentional a la carte data charges on your first bill.
