Motorola has announced that the stylish MOTO U9 is now available in the US and is currently being sold for $275.99 unlocked. This GSM based cell phone resembles the style of the PEBL, but is targeted at the music-centric youth market. While the true standout feature of the MOTO U9 is the stylish design, the 2.0 megapixel camera, 2 inch QVGA TFT internal display, and advanced speech recognition system are solid components.

With the lack of 3G connectivity, this unlocked GSM cell phone is destined for a happy T-mobile USA customer, but at $275.99 will the device see a warm welcome?  Personally, the unlocked Palm Centro GSM offers a much more attractive package despite its aging OS and less than stellar camera.  If you are looking for a stylish music phone and do not need the 3G connectivity of At&t’s network, the MOTO U9 is worth a peak.

Motorola MOTO U9 Specifications:

  • Quadband GSM/GPRS/EDGE (no 3G)
  • Stereo Bluetooth

  • 2.0 inch TFT internal display QVGA resolution (320 x 240 pixels)
  • web browser, push email, sms/mms capabilities
  • 2.0 megapixel camera with video recording
  • CrystalTalk technology, Advanced Speech Recognition
  • USB 2.0 support
