motorola cliq

Just a few years ago, Motorola had the hottest phone (the RAZR) and everything went well for them. Unfortunately they never followed the RAZR with another industry-leading phone, and subsequently they suffered a gradual decline in their fortune. Just as the Pre is the comeback phone for Palm, the Cliq may well be the comeback phone for Motorola.

Here are some early reviews of the Motorola Cliq.

Engadget Mobile
The CLIQ looks and feels like a testbed, not quite ready for primetime but a genuinely heartening sign that Moto’s still got a pulse.

CNET Review

With its excellent design, user interface improvements, and admirable feature set, the Motorola Cliq gives a big boost to the Android operating system.

Gizmodo
Is this the phone that Motorola needs to bring it back into the smartphone race? It could be …. the major thing holding back the Cliq from being a fantastic phone is the processor.

Walt Mossberg
It boasts all of the standard Android features. But what sets the CLIQ apart is that it’s built around the idea of consolidating all your communications and social networking, and making them easy to access.
