The next step in the evolution of its RIZR line of slider-style phones, the MOTO Z9 offers super-fast downloads and multimedia streaming via AT&T's 3G WCDMA network, which makes it easy to download music purchased from AT&T Mobile Music, stream tunes from Napster and eMusic, and watch video streamed from CNN and Comedy Central via AT&T's Cellular Video. It also supports AT&T's Video Share service, which offers a one-way video stream during a mobile-to-mobile phone call. And you'll be able to get to where you're going fast with the integrated Assisted GPS (A-GPS) receiver and support for AT&T Navigator software and service. A sibling to Motorola's RAZR 2 V9 phone, the MOTO Z9 shares many of its features, including a sleek stainless steel body, CrystalTalk noise reduction technology, 2-megapixel camera (with video capture capabilities), Bluetooth connectivity for streaming music and photo printing, MicroSD memory card expansion (up to 8 GB), access to your personal email and instant messenger services, digital audio player, and full duplex speakerphone. 
The sleek MOTO Z9 effortlessly slides open. | AT&T Service
This AT&T phone can handle high-speed data connectivity via AT&T's 3G mobile broadband data network, which is available in most major metropolitan areas. This dual-band 3G phone--WCDMA 850/1900 MHz--makes it possible to enjoy a variety of feature-rich wireless multimedia services with speeds up to 3.6 Mbps. It also gives you the advantage of accessing voice and data services at the same time. With 3G connectivity, you'll be able to access AT&T's Video Share service, which enables you to send a live, one-way video stream to another compatible phone during a standard voice call. The service also allows you to switch the direction of the video stream during the same phone call. (Customers must be in an area served by the company's 3G network and have a Video Share-enabled phone.) In areas where the 3G network is not available, you'll continue to receive service on the AT&T EDGE network, which offers availability in more than 13,000 US cities and along some 40,000 miles of major highways. Providing average data speeds between 75-135Kbps, it's fast enough to support a wide range of advanced data services, including full picture and video messaging, high-speed color Internet access, and email on the go. With 3G connectivity, you'll be able to access AT&T's Cellular Video (CV) service and the Internet while on the go. Cellular Video features content from CNN, The Weather Channel, iFilm, Comedy Central and exclusive premium content from HBO and much more. It also features AT&T Mobile Music, which provides access to the Napster and eMusic subscription music services. You can also access streaming radio for a complete mobile music experience. (A MEdia Max subscription bundle is recommended for accessing AT&T's Internet, video, and music services.) With its quad-band connectivity, this phone communicates over GSM/GPRS networks and AT&T offers voice roaming in more than 190 countries and data roaming in more than 130 countries. You can also take advantage of the AT&T Navigator GPS software and service, the full-featured premium navigation application that includes audible turn-by-turn directions, real-time traffic updates and re-routing options, and 3D moving maps (additional charges applicable). Phone Features
The MOTO Z9 has a large, brightly colorful 2.4-inch screen with a 240 x 320-pixel resolution and a depth of 262K colors. With the redesigned, more intelligent interface, you'll be able to search for contacts faster and avoid duplicate entries for the same person while allowing contacts to have multiple numbers. The customizable main menu means you're never more than 2 to 3 clicks away from your favorite applications. And text messaging is easier, with the MOTO Z9 recognizing what type of message you are sending. The innovative CrystalTalk technology automatically accounts for background noise during a call and adjusts the audio quality based on ambient noise conditions to provide the optimal conversational experience. CrystalTalk also reduces the volume of the background noise picked up by the microphone during a call, making it possible to be more easily heard over the phone while in a noisy environment. The 2-megapixel camera includes an 8x digital zoom and it can automatically snap up to eight new pictures--letting you choose the best image from a complete series of pictures. You can even print photos wirelessly to a Bluetooth-compatible printer with just a few menu selections. It also features a self-timer, free memory space indicator, color effects, night mode for low-light shots, and five shutter sounds (with a silent mode). The MOTO Z9 is also an impressive video camcorder, providing up to QCIF resolution (176 x 144 pixels). It also gives you the option of choosing the video format, which offers different frame rates--25 fps for MPEG and H263 and 15 fps for WMV and Real. You can record video for as long as you have available space on your MicroSD/MicroSDHC memory card (which offers compatibility with cards up to 8 GB). This phone provides Bluetooth version 2.0 wireless connectivity, and includes profiles for communication headset, handsfree car kits, and photo printing. With the A2DP Bluetooth profile, you can stream your music to a pair of compatible Bluetooth stereo headphones. You can connect your laptop (either via Bluetooth or wired USB) and enjoy dial-up networking--surf the Internet, send email, and access files from a server. In addition to voice calls, text messaging, and MMS capability, the phone is also compatible with mobile email (POP/IMAP/SMTP) as well as instant messaging (IM) from AIM, Windows Live, and Yahoo!. The embedded iTap predictive text entry technology makes it easier for entering text on handsets--a plus for mobile email and text messaging users. Other features include: - 45 MB internal memory
- Support for caller groups, multiple numbers per contact, photo ID, and ringer ID
- Polyphonic and MP3 ringtones with vibrate silent mode
- Music format support: MP3, AAC, and WMA (as well as protected WMA-DRM)
- PIM functions including calendar, calculator, alarm clock, and world clock
- USB 2.0 wired connectivity, with mass storage capability
- Bluetooth profiles: A2DP (stereo music streaming), AVRC (remote control), HFP (hands-free car kits), HSP (communication headsets), BIP (for sending images to another device), BPP (basic printing profile for text, email), DUN (dial-up networking), FTP (file transfer), OPP (object push for business cards, calendar items, and pictures)

 I love this phone!! January 4, 2010
Kelly A. Smelcer
I've actually had this phone for a year & a half, and it's GREAT!!! I got it as an upgrade on a Sony Ericcson (I sent it back 4 times, and the last time the lady said I could've upgraded two returns ago), and I fell in love with it! The external speaker went out on it at one time, and I called to see about cashing in my insurance since my warranty had run out by then. Luckily my insurance had another one just like it, so I decided to pay the $50 rather than get another phone I probably wouldn't like. I do a LOT of texting, and I'm able to use this phone without looking at it, even in the dark. I tried a touch screen phone with a full keyboard, and I couldn't stand it because the buttons were so small, and using it at night was impossible for me. I went back to this phone within 12 hours! I'm thinking about upgrading to a Blackberry, but I can't bring myself to part with this phone just yet. My ONLY issue is that somehow I've managed to mute the mp3 player. If someone sends me a sound in a message, I can't hear it unless I save it, go to edit a calendar date or address book entry and change the ringtone. If anyone has a solution for that problem, I'm all ears. Otherwise, I absolutely love this phone!

D. Vestal (Little Rock, AR)
I love, love, love my new Motorola phone! Looks great and it's made solid. I've dropped it a couple of times and it didn't even get a scratch. The music recognition program is so neat, but there's a monthly fee. Navigation program is great...but there's a monthly fee. I downloaded Google Maps, it works fine...for free.
Very happy with this phone! January 2, 2009
Tall guy (Western Washington)
I got this phone from Amazon in August and still love it. I love the larger size, slightly heavier weight (than other cell phones), fit, and finish. I have big hands and hate how small some cell phones are. I put an 8 GB memory card in it and it holds tons of songs, pictures, ringtones, etc, with room to spare. The sound quality can't be beat. I hear people loud and clear and they hear me. Paired with a Motorola 700 series Bluetooth headset (from Costco), it works flawlessly. No one ever complains about background noise. The screen size is bright and clear. The camera feature takes decent pictures but its not a true replacement for a digital camera. It will get you by if needed though. Recorded videos have a wave effect if you don't hold the phone steady, but overall great audio recording abilities. I have not used the GPS feature. I only text a few messages per day and it takes some getting used to with the keys. The keys are small metal buttons that you push. After a while you become used to it. I think I would want a full QWERTY keyboard if I did a lot of texting.
The top of the phone is shiny which can lead to it being slippery. The back has a somewhat tacky feel to it. I ended up purchasing a black rubberized grip phone protector that snaps to the front and back of this phone (purchased on Amazon). I wouldn't use the phone without one because it is an expensive phone to drop and I would hate to scratch it!
The phone remains locked if it is in the closed position. This avoids accidentally calling people. To answer it you just slide it open and/or hit the green answer button. The slider has a very solid feel to it. The best way to describe it is that it feels like solid metal pieces compared to plastic pieces of cheaper sliders.
This phone was great when the power goes out because you can shuffle through your music and it has a decent sounding speaker. You can also use the camera "flash", which is really just a bright LED light, as a flashlight if you need one.
Due to the shininess of the front of the phone, I found it easiest to clean off oil and fingerprints by wiping the phone down with a microfiber towel. Battery power is good. If you don't talk a whole lot, it will last you several days. If you talk moderate to a lot and/or listen to music through the speaker, then of course you will have to charge it more often. The phone can be charged over your USB port on your computer. Pick up a car charger for a few bucks and you'll always be able to charge it.
I haven't had any problems with dropped calls through AT&T with this phone which is a big change from my prior Sony Ericson z525a (worst phone ever).
If you want a nice looking solid built phone with great call quality and nice features, then this phone is for you. If you want to text all day long or play a ton of games, then you might want something else.
Good phone, not same mini USB I'm used to December 12, 2008
P. Reed (Irvine, CA USA)
Mini-USB is a different size than other m-usb connections. The box comes with an adapter, but keep that in mind before you make the purchase!
Good slider phone, reception is better than my other phone, though you can't help reception when there's nothing to help.
Strong, sturdy, takes good photos. I got it because it has the important aspects of a phone. I don't really need the net capabilities, but 3 G seems pretty good. I got an 8gig microSD to add into the phone to hold more music. It took the phone all day to sync itself with the music. Also, when the phone is full of music, any music-related menu is going to be delayed processing for a while. I think it's just overload of the number of files it's sorting through.
A little bit heavier than my old SLVR. Definitely an upgrade from the slvr
