Motorola launches "salmon pink" SLVR L6

by Paul Miller posted Mar 1st 2006 at 11:22AM

This really shouldn't come as a surprise anymore, but Motorola is releasing a T-Mobile UK exclusive "salmon pink" version of the SLVR L6. You can score it for "free" with a mere £5-a-month tacked on to your phone bill for 18 months. Please wake us when it's over.

At first I felt like motorola was just capitalizing on the success of the razr, but the sliver has definately grown on me! I definately wouldn't mind having one, hint, hint...

Moto.

Painting existing products is not product development.

And that is the ugliest thing I've seen in a long time.

Usually Motorola scores bigtime when it comes to phone design... but this phone is UGLY.

You all hate the phone, but that doesn't mean it's bad design. This phone is not designed to appeal to tech-interested guys named Fernando. They already have a sleek silver phone for that. It's designed to appeal to 12 year old girls who are Paris Hilton wannabes.

If only Motorola would spend more time redesigning their user interface and less picking new colors for the phone housing...

sigh, enough of the pink phones

the RAZR, Sprint's 200, 2300, and the lavender/purple Samusung phone.

The sick thing is this phone will be popular because of the color/shape, and not the features. Why was the iPod mini so popular? It came in pink. 4GB for $250 compared to 20GB for $300 was justifiable as long as it was pink, and I don't think anyone who gets this phone will mind the $5/mo charge (which comes out to $60 a year!) as long as they have the cutest phone.

Absolutely sick.

The only pink RAZR shade that isn't bad is the one on the V3c.

I got my gf the Pink T-Mobile Nokia 6611 (is it?),
she loved it.

Dont think she'd be that happy with this thing.

a) looks bubble gum pink
b) whatever reminds you of Paris Hilton. No No!

I think this phone really *is* in honor of Engadget Mobile's launch... Comparing the pink 'mobile' in the logo here to this thing isn't too far off!

Personally, I'd just like to get more of the non-pink phones from overseas available in the US sooner... V3x anyone?

I finally figured out the strtegy behind motorola selling female appealing phones they probably made some secret contract with the service providers so the women use all the minutes they guys have ti pay and the carries get rich
