whats the good of a moto q9c and the bad and is it better than the mogul?

[bigberto]

jus thinkin on what phone is better cuz im tryin to switch to the moto q 9c

[Spencer_Moore]

anything running wm standard instead of progfessional isnt as good.....u lose out on the mainreasons for a wm phone

[bigberto]

why is that so ur saying that the mogul is better

Well, i've had both and preferred the Q9c mainly for the exposed keyboard, smaller profile, built-in gps (that worked with any gps app i installed), stereo speakers, plus Documents To Go for Win mobile is just amazing. One more thing, the phone's call quality is very good (it blew my Treo away in this regard), and bluetooth actually works so very well (it's a Motorola afterall).

Specs-wise, the Mogul is more powerful but all that power is seriously hobbled and crippled by the lousy memory problems it has. The Q9c runs Win Mobile 6 standard (Smartphone), so no touch screen but i did not miss that at all. I was able to find Smartphone versions of all my favourite apps anyway. It has a slower processor than the Mogul so it doesn't breeze through everything at the same speed but it's good. I installed the Smartphone version of Opera Mobile (NOT Opera Mini) and it rendered what i consider complicated websites very well and fast too.

It's not for everyone, especially the folks who like bigger screen phones and built-in wifi (you can get a mini-sd wifi card btw). Coming from a Treo 700Wx, it suited me fine.
I ditched my Mogul long ago and went back to my Treo, but of late i have been using the Q9c (i go back and forth with Treo 700Wx and Q9c )

Hope this helps a bit.

Oh one more thing i forgot, Windows Media Player on the Q9c can natively handle rtsp stuff from m.youtube.com. I was surprised at that actually.

nice point you got there, but the treo 700wx is the best $650+ than anyone can ever spend. but there's something about the q9c that doesn't catch my eye, and that's the screen size, along with the fact that it's not rev. a upgradable. the best thing that i would go back and forth to from my mogul and vice versa is the touch if i were you... even though it doesn't have that many butons, it packs a whole lot under the hood with no leaks at all.

Apps for Smartphone are as abundant as for PPC. Depends on what you're looking for. I posted a similar reply here http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=13665 .

No offense to ppcgeeks, but the best Moto Q forums are at http://www.everythingq.com .

and qusers.com

solitare is played with the number keys plus * & #. Takes some getting used to!

Switched from mogul to q9c and haven't regretted it for a second. Everything on the Q actually works and the battery life excellent. About half the time I had to charge the mogul during the day or I would run out of juice but I can usually go 2.5 days without charging the Q. Everything just works and I love the GPS, it has worked with every program I have tried. I have dropped less calls with it. I had several different moguls and each dropped calls in my house all the time, not a problem with the Q9c.

Not a fan of Smartphone types (ie No touchscreen/smaller screen/few apps)

But no one said anything about the ability for full 1 handed use, which is one of its bigger & more obvious 'n underrated plus.
