I got this to finally jump on the android train and am very impressed. I havent seen the durability side of it in action but am sure will in the near future. It is very small which is a plus for me and takes great photos. This one is the european version and will not work for tmobile data services in the usa unless you call tmobile read on a couple forums its not possible to get data with this version in the usa, they were wrong, just call tmobile. Highly recommended.

When, the phone first arrived I was quite surprised by the size of the phone. The phone is really really thin and feels as if it ways no more than a lb or two. But, it's a very beautiful phone; it had not one scratch on it and came with everything that a phone out of a regular store would have. I have had this phone since January of 2011 and have not got one scratch on the screen so far. I dropped it in water on multiple occasions and the phone still works perfectly. Although, every time it landed it water the phone acted unresponsive until I dried the water off of it and then it worked like a charm. My only complaint about this phone is that it is a Motorola phone and Motorola updates their phones really late in the game or does not at all. So, the phone came with android 2.1 and the phone was very unstable, froze all time, and just made me want to throw it at the wall, but after the phone received android 2.2 it ran a lot better and was not as glitchy. Also, my phone did not come unlocked it came ready for use at T-Mobile only, but I have T-Mobile so, it wasn't that bad. It still freezes from time to time, but not as much as before.

(I've had this phone for 2 1/2 months now.)
Great phone: call quality is excellent, Android 2.1 runs very fast and smooth, small(er) size (perfect for my uses), touchscreen *very* responsive, really nice sound chip.
Wifi and Bluetooth work very well, day-to-day, and I use them pretty much every single day, much more than I actually make calls.
Pairs and interoperates beautifully with my Plantronics 300 Bluetooth stereo headphones -- they are *awesome* with this phone, incredible call quality and music listening.
I really, *really* like the "semi-rugged" features of this phone, e.g., not having to be paranoid when it rains, not worrying about scratches on screen (I usually work outdoors).
I don't use Motoblur, disabled what I could of it, I prefer to use Launcher Pro home screen (from Android market), because of the features, but this also means that I don't have to see all the Motorola/T-Mobile stuff that came loaded the phone. But I might use all the social stuff someday, so I haven't deleted it.
Electrophones (the Amazon seller I got this from) shipped promptly. I was, to be honest, a little surprised with the minimal and non-Motorola/non-T-Mobile packaging -- just a shipping box, charger, bubble wrap and manual. Less for me to toss out, though. ;)
This phone was *not* unlocked, but I found out (by chance, actually) before ordering, and ordered anyway -- at that price, I could always get T-Mobile to unlock it if I really needed to.
But actually, this has worked out for me. Since I already used T-Mobile prepaid SIM anyway, if there is no Wifi or Clearwire coverage, I can use T-Mobile daily web rate ($1.50/24hours at time of writing, and I think 300MB). If the phone was unlocked, I couldn't do that -- I've tried with an unlocked MyTouch 3G.
Very happy with purchase.

I have this phone. It is really amazing - strong, waterproof, but there are some draw backs - when you are under the shower the water drops are troubling the touch screen. Read more

Misleading
I bought this phone from tmobile itself. When I first got it, I fell in love with it. It is very light and durable, the screen is made of gorilla glass so it is hard to crack. Read more
